Raila new tact to reach out to the people without Rift MPs

http://www.ntv.co.ke
Turning to politics, Prime Minister Raila Odinga now appears to change tact after apparently falling out of favour of a section of rift valley MPs. The Mau forest controversy injured the prime minister politically among some rift valley politicians, and he now appears to embark on a campaign to reach the grassroots directly by sidestepping members of parliament from the region.

man some of this things only increase ths tribalism nonsense,. sasa luo council of elders na kalenjin council of eldrs.what the hell is that?

[justiceforkenyans]

Gichaka, not only fresh young blood but also a new constitution that will straighten these people out. The current constitution is not conducive for the development of our nation.

Raila played a tricky game cosying up with the kalenjin vote.He will not move anywhere unless now he goes and flirts with the gema vote. Those are the 2 groups that vote as a block Otherwise he is done with his presidential ambitions.

Watch this space.

Prefect.

For somalia? Where is your wariahe president?

[slytheron]

that's so ignorant though for her to say that Raila controls the Luo council of elders. That's really ignorant.

People seem to think that Raila controls all Luos. Jinga sana.

KK will work until the people of Central decide to have their own candidate then it will be the same 1992 situation. Tirbal and tribal alliances will not solve Kenya's problems.

Whatever this man called Ruto is saying......is out of touch.Ruto is a Raila tailored politician.Raila made him a kalenjin pointman,now that he enjoys a good following he has decided to go against Raila.A very big political mistake.I know my fellow kalenjins are astonished,but do i say.He will come back begging and this time he will be reduced to nothing.I hate to say this but project KK will not work.

I agree. These two are spent cannons and crooks of the highest order always simponing gas at night and chasing kikuyus out of the rift valley with little or nothing to eat. How could they and then go back to hand which they had beaten in the form of Kibaki? Enough with stealing everything on site!

[Gichaka]

Does this caucus of double R Raila and Ruto think that the republic of Kenya from Mombassa to mandera is holding their breath for their unity for Kenya to get back to its glory times? No, we dont need them! We need the Kenyan youth to replace them. The youth both in the Diaspora and in our republic moving from office to office seeking jobs holds our future. These two are spent cannons and we need fresh blood in the political scene.

[Feisal254]

Raila juu! Raila for President!

[freegastanker1]

It's a tough gamble made to fail on the face. Warlord Ruto stole lots of maize and simponed gas in the forest. He also stole seng'eng'e and gave it to his militia... it's a tough call for this crook.
