The speed at which Mukurweini MP John Kaguchia was arrested shows that this government can work very fast when it wants to, but the problem is that the law is applied depending on who has spoken and which political side they belong to.
Open Letter to Edwin “Wakenya” Sifuna: We See What’s Happening
Sifuna, we need to talk…
Not about your politics. Not about your platform. About the company you’re starting to keep.
There’s a pattern forming, and we Kenyans are watching.
People who spent years switching sides, dodging accountability, and rebranding every election cycle are suddenly finding their way into your circle. Not because they believe in what you stand for but because proximity to you is useful cover.
Let’s call it what it is: integrity laundering.
When someone with a track record of scandal, betrayal, or convenient amnesia starts showing up next to you, smiling for the cameras, nodding along at your rallies, they’re not endorsing your vision. They’re borrowing your credibility.
And here’s the thing: credibility doesn’t transfer. It gets diluted.
Every recycled politician who gets a seat at your table is a signal to the people who trusted you first. It says: maybe principles are negotiable after all. Maybe this was never different from the rest.
We didn’t back you because you were the safest bet. We backed you because you weren’t supposed to need the same old faces to survive politically.
So here’s our ask, plainly:
Choose your circle like your legacy depends on it, because it does.
The people who stood with you when it cost them something are worth more than the ones showing up now that it’s convenient.
Kenya doesn’t need another leader surrounded by yesterday’s compromises wearing today’s rhetoric.
We’re watching who you let in. Choose wisely.
Dr. Martin Oloo – Associate Dean, Daystar School of Law: Anyone who is saying that Sifuna is inexperienced does not know what they are talking about because what Sifuna has said resonates with the people, and that is where the hearts of the people are #CitizenDayBreak
Dr. Kenneth Ombongi – Associate Dean, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, UoN: What we need is a balance between the radical Sifuna of ODM and a leader with a vision for the country—one who understands its challenges, past and present, and can push us forward #CitizenDayBreak
Edwin Sifuna's promises last night to Yvonne Okwara on Citizen TV:
A government that:
• Listens to the people
• Follows the rule of law
• Upholds democratic ideals and values
• Inspires investor confidence
• Creates opportunity and dignity for all.
HII NI INGINE MWECHECHE 🔥🔥
This is George Natembeya;Older than Edwin Sifuna. Richer than Sifuna. More experienced than Sifuna. Before Sifuna emerged, many people including me saw him as the Luhya kingpin.
But the moment he saw that the stars had aligned in Sifuna's favour for the sake of unity in our community, he chose to put personal ambition aside. He left everything behind and decided to support his younger brother, even if it meant becoming mtu wa mkono. To him, the unity of the Mulembe Nation is more important than titles, power, or personal ambition.
That is true leadership.
When I grow up, I want to be like George Natembeya.
