@Dr_AustinOmondi Does their constitution allow? I don't think so... The president is guarded from political "fights"
November he can choose to dissolve the parliament again

John Musembi Kyalo — The Minister Who “Misplaced” a Hospital
In Kenya’s political folklore, few stories are told with as much amusement—and quiet admiration—as that of John Musembi Kyalo, the man who, depending on who you ask, either made a bureaucratic blunder… or pulled off a masterstroke.
But long before he stepped into the charged arena of elections, he had already climbed to the very top of government administration—serving as a District Officer, rising through the ranks to become Director of Immigration, and eventually Permanent Secretary under both Jomo Kenyatta and Daniel arap Moi. He was, by all accounts, a technocrat—methodical, efficient, and deeply embedded in the machinery of the State.
But the true measure of the man—nicknamed "Kyalo wa Makindi" or "the forceful one"—was revealed only after he traded his suit for the unpredictable arena of politics.
Except, politics proved less forgiving.
He tried once. Lost.
Tried again. Lost.
And even after the 1982 attempted coup reshaped Kenya’s political landscape, Kyalo still couldn’t quite break through.
Then in 1988, on his third attempt—and through the controversial mlolongo (queue voting) system—he finally entered Parliament.
By then, he had learned something important: he was not a rally man. Not a crowd-stirring orator. So, he built a different kind of campaign—quiet, deliberate, almost surgical. He knocked on doors at night, speaking one-on-one, building trust in whispers rather than speeches.
It worked.
By 1992, he was no longer just an MP—he was in Cabinet, appointed Minister for Health by President Moi, a sign of both trust and proximity to power, aided in no small measure by his alliance with the legendary Ukambani kingmaker, Mulu Mutisya.
And then came the hospital.
It was during his tenure as Minister for Health that Kyalo executed his most audacious "clerical error"—a story that remains a hilarious and legendary footnote in Kenyan governance.
At the time, the people of Makueni were suffering, traveling 60 kilometres to Machakos just for basic medical care. Kyalo saw the need, but the bureaucratic wheels moved slowly, and the funds were often earmarked elsewhere. Suddenly, a multi-million-shilling modern hospital began rising in Makueni with unprecedented speed, overseen by the Minister himself.
When the ribbon was cut and the doors opened, a confused cry rose from Nyeri District. The political leaders there were wondering what had happened to their own planned facility in Mukurweini.
With the straightest of faces, Kyalo launched a "thorough investigation" into the matter. His conclusion? A tragic, unfortunate clerical mix-up. He apologised profusely to the people of Nyeri, blaming the ministry’s confusion for sending Mukurweini’s hospital to Makueni. He promised to "correct" the error in the next budget—which he eventually did—but the deed was done.
Years later, over drinks with close friends, the "forceful" Kyalo finally dropped the mask, admitting with a wink that the mix-up had been a calculated means to an end. He had simply decided that his people had waited long enough.
A Final Farewell
Kyalo’s voice, once used for quiet night-time persuasion and clever ministerial defences, began to fail him midway through his term. Diagnosed with throat cancer, he passed away in 1995 while still in office. He was buried with the full honours of the state, mourned by the President and the entire Ukambani leadership—leaving behind a legacy of a man who knew exactly how to work the system, even if it meant "losing" a whole hospital along the way.

@Ruthjelagat13 Funny how people get the doctrine wrong and assume all people who somehow profess the Christian faith do the same. You outside and I'm inside. It's not a dichotomy kinda thing but you wrong and somehow I might be more right.
