In every election, PM Raila Odinga gets the highest number of weak MPs. MPs who cannot stand firm and defend the party even when the party leader is on a sabbatical leave.
Nonetheless, Raila’s injuries are self-inflicted through unfair nominations where the highest bidder gets the ticket. That way, he gets unqualified individuals who are unable to stop even the likes of Murkomen. Is it possible for Raila Odinga to stop
However, is it possible for Raila Odinga to stop ‪#‎hawking‬ party nominations to the highest bidder & instead allow DEMOCRACY to reign through FAIR GRASSROOTS NOMINATIONS? Because ONLY then, can he have MPs who can STAND FOR him no matter the amount of dollar bills tabled.
But as long as he continues to influence, either directly or through proxies, on who gets nominated & cashing on it, he’ll continue getting the kind of Alshabaab & economic jihadists who are ready to sell their souls to the enemy as his foot soldiers…the likes of MPs: Kamangu’s son in Mathare, Ken Obura, Mahsoud Mwahima, among many others.
Theirs is the allegiance to the money they give to secure nominations NOT the ideologies of the party.
