Cornered politicians find solace in tribe

Political responsibility has been a foreign word in Kenyan politics. For a long time, our man syndrome, ethnicity and tribe have been used to form an umbrella over leaders who have questionable integrity. That umbrella has worked in some cases. But with the new political dispensation, that cover is bound to fade as the new constitution takes everyone to task, the big fish and the small fish.

Where do Kenyan politicians get their oversize suits from. I've been looking for one of those for a while but all I keep getting is a mhindi telling me I'd need to begin with being stupid in order to claim I can't find one. I'm beginning to wonder how I can use woman rights to get what I want.

the last time i checked, the kalenjins and lughia tribes are still going about their lives untargeted.so these thieves need to grow and own their mistakes instead of dragging their whole tribes into them.AND DO THOSE POOR VILLAGERS WHO ARE DANCING TO THESE POLITICIANS KNOW THAT THEIR AIM IS TO ENRICH THEMSEVES?DANCING TO THEM LIKE THEY HEROES??CAN CAN SOME PLIZ EDUCATE THESE PEPO??

Linda your clip is so balanced and to the point. One can clearly understand that there are just two tribes here; The haves and the have nots or the Hynas and the sheep. Keep up for good journalism.

These hyenas steal and then drag us into it when they are cornered. Everyone must carry their own cross. When you stole you ate alone with ur family, so stop putting me there, I didnt get a cent. Wetangula despite being surrounded by Wekesa and Shitanda during his stepping aside moment, should not drag the Luhyas, Ruto should not drag the Kalenjin and majiwa should not drag the Luos.
