JUBILEE had provided Linus Kaikai with the meeting that happened in the PM’s office chaired by Raila and attended by Michuki (then acting Finance Minister), Shaban (Special Programmes and William Ruto (Agriculture) in 2009. Linus was to use it to revisit the “Raila maize scandal”.
Raila was to be painted as having forced the buying of maize from South Africa as opposed to Tanzania. What this was to achieve was to paint Raila as an enemy of Tanzania, but also paint Naomi Shaban and Ruto as the (then) friends of Tanzania, for now. As you all know, there is this feeling that Tanzania government favors/prefers Raila to Uhuru.
Then Raila informs Kaikai that at that point Tanzania had banned maize exportation and that what Shaban/Ruto wanted was to use Tanzania as “panya route”. Linus conveniently didn’t state Michuki’s position, who had actually supported Raila in rejecting the use of Tanzania for magendo (contraband trade).
Linus “small Joe” Kaikai had to move on to another equally idiotic topic.
Useless.
