Politics and the ICC debate

Central Kenya is caught up in the grip of succession politics. Uhuru Kenyatta the frontrunner in succeeding President Kibaki has recently adopted an abrasive political style that seeks to obliterate his opponents perceived to be former justice minister Martha Karua and Peter Kenneth who represents Gatanga. Uhuru not only has the majority of central Kenya Mps supporting him, but he has also managed to turn the damage brought to the fore by an ICC process into a positive for his political career. We take a look at the unfolding scenario in central Kenya.

WHEN YOU SEE SUCH A SPECTACLE OF A PROMINENT & WEALTHY PERSON SUCH AS UHURU KENYATTA ASKING FOR "COLLECTIVENESS" UNDER THE GUISE OF COMMUNITY, IT MAKES ALL KIKUYUS APPEAR AS IF THEY BELIEVE THE COUNTRY IS THEIRS ALONE & KINDA INSECURE..... REMEMBER, if you make it to State House there are 42 TRIBES & 40M+ KENYANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Honourable UK what agenda does the central peple have?All I see is a personal agenda of you being the next prezzo so you & your boys can rape the country to its knees.Shindwe

[nyajowi]

Ruto has become irrelevant.

RV back RAO and ODM

A big political re alignment on the way.

RAO President 2012

[hakim254]

this new culture of speaking in mother tongue only shows that Uhuru is just a few people leader.Ideally i'd like Peter Kenneth for president but am afraid he has no stratety or backing of anyone but me.Raila for president.

[nyajowi]

Uhuru has lost it.I don't see Kenyans choosing him a President.What he is doing is inciting undiscerning Kikuyus against all Kenyans.He is in effect worsening his case at the  ICC.

With this behavior i am even seeing Rift Valley votes going to Agwambo come 2012.He has scared off the Kaleniins.

Madam Karua & peter kenneth, presidential campaigns need money, to be able to campaign country wide. CAN YOU PEOPLE AFFORD??. Obama had a lot of people fund raising for him. It is not about poor men or rich men's children. Do you want sympathy votes, because you are poor?- Stop bad mouthing Uhuru, you have not even started to sell yourselfs country wide because you do not have the finances. CONCENTRATE WITH GOVERNOR POSTS!!!,
