Uhuru with Matiang’i on His Lap Could be The Worst Nightmare for Gachagua with Kalonzo on His Lap

I’m supporting Matiang’i for his capacity, not tribe – Uhuru

We are not talking about lap dancing in some bar in Nairobi. No, that is a different story. We are talking about Kenyan politicians who want to be the next president of the country but looking at the tough road ahead they have decided they need a sponsor whom they are prepared to kneel down to everyday before and after the elections as they follow their bosses’ orders.

What Kenyans need to make living conditions better for them is of no interest to any of the lap dancing “leaders” and that is why nobody in the opposition ever talks about what they are going to do for the citizens to help improve their living conditions. They have no clue about that. Yes, they want to lead the country but have no idea where that takes Kenyans. I don’t know where that kind of politics works but I know certainly it will not work in Kenya.

The politics of these sponsored presidential candidates starts and ends with WANTAM and that is all their sponsors want. The Kenyan people and their needs can go to the rubbish heap as soon as the new lords take State House and they ask their sponsored presidents to go on a dancing spree to please those who own them.

Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has declared his unwavering support for his former Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i, citing his leadership capacity rather than tribal affiliation.

Speaking during the Jubilee Party delegates meeting held at Thika Greens in Murang’a county, Uhuru said Matiang’i had demonstrated exceptional capability and commitment to public service.

“I’m supporting Matiang’i because of his capacity, not his tribe. In fact, I don’t even know his home; I’ve never visited him, but he is a hardworking leader,” said Uhuru.

Now Uhuru Kenyatta is telling the whole country that he also has a big catch warming his laps and waiting for orders on what to do to win the presidency and bring Uhuru back to State House through the backdoor and also help him make sure that his sheep and goats in Mamangina farm are not grabbed and slaughtered to feed some big mouths.

For the first time Kenyans are going to have a presidential election where one side in the competition are grabbing puppets to run and beat William Ruto. Good luck with that seems to be the message from the gound.

It looks like it is going to be a true lap sitting game for the United Opposition in the 2027 General Elections as they try to grab State House from William Ruto. Gachagua already had one presidential hopeful in 2027, Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka already glued on his lap and put him in place to be the big challenger to William Ruto in 2027 elections.

Now let’s look at the political landscape after Matiang’i come roaring with his boss Uhuru Kenyatta.

The cariculture agenda now from the opposition is that they are going to put up one presidential candidate. To avoid wasting time there are obvious conclusions. One is that Kalonzo is determined to be the presidential candidate for that group or else he will walk out and declare his presidential candidacy under a new flag. God knows who those New Flag Bearers will be. Good Luck for him with that.

Secondly, former President Uhuru Kenyatta is now in the 2027 General Elections and he has made his choice to succeed his buddy William Ruto and this time unlike in 2022 when Uhuru supported Azimio team of Raila Odinga and Martha Karua, this time it looks like Uhuru is ready to go right into the campaign. That is good for him.

Uhuru is being honest with Kenyans about where he thinks the country should go and that is a good thing. Kenyans always appreciate that.

The nightmare for Uhuru is that to get Matiang’i in there as the United Opposition presidential candidate he has to kick Kalonzo out of there.

Or maybe and this is a dream chance for United Opposition to pick Fred Matiang’i as their presidential candidate with Kalonzo Musyoka as the DP.

Where is everybody else in the list of United Opposition presidential candidates in that formula for the opposition. Nowhere.

It could get worse.

That is next but here is the reality with Uhuru and Ruto killing the country.

Speaking Friday during a Jubilee Party delegates meeting at Thika Greens in Murang’a county, Uhuru expressed disappointment that the region ignored his cautionary message during the last general election.

“In 2022, I warned you about these people, but you didn’t listen to me. I hope now you are ready to support leaders who are genuinely committed to transforming this country,” he said.

What is next for William Ruto and Uhuru Kenyatta is their problem. What is good for the country is for Kenyan voters to decide in 2027.
