And then Brits come and lecture the world on the so-called "free speech" 🤡
Ruto is no longer preparing to win 2027.
He is preparing for what happens AFTER Kenyans reject the results.
Look carefully at the pattern.
Njoki Ndung’u being pushed to the ICC.
Philomena Mwilu exiting soon.
Warsame already singing “respect the appointing authority.”
A carefully cultivated Supreme Court bench slowly taking shape around one man’s political survival.
This is not random.
This is architecture.
A 7 judge shield designed to sanitize disputed elections, neutralize constitutional resistance and protect power at all costs.
Kenyans must stop thinking rigging only happens at polling stations.
Modern state capture happens in the courts, in appointments, in institutions and in silent elite deals made years before an election.
Why is State House so invested in judicial positioning?
Why are loyalists being rewarded strategically?
Why is every independent institution slowly becoming politically obedient?
Because Ruto understands one thing:
The real battle after 2027 may not be in the streets.
It may be in the Supreme Court of Kenya.
Observe the SCOK carefully.
Observe the appointments.
Observe the silence.
Observe the programming.
This regime is not planning for democracy.
It is planning for legal protection after democracy is violated.
History has taught us one painful truth:
When the judiciary is captured, the citizen becomes powerless.
2027 will not just be about votes.
It will be about whether Kenya still has institutions strong enough to defend those votes.

@amerix If y'all observed keenly, the tribal card became a narrative once people started to make Rigathi relevant. His opinions are now linked to a whole community.
Stalin once ripped all the feathers off a live chicken as a lesson to his followers.
He then set the chicken on the floor a short distance away.
The chicken was bloodied and suffering immensly, yet, when Stalin began to toss some bits of wheat toward the chicken it followed him around.
He said to his followers
"This is how easy it is to govern stupid people, they will follow you no matter how much pain you cause them, as long as you throw them a little worthless treat once in a while"
