It’s 4.30 am in Kibera laini saba area. Meet Peter okech a member or mbunge la wanainchi that meet daily at jeevanjee gardens to discuss politics. 4. 30am is when Okech wakes up. Mtu na makende yake mbiii na mandevu starts preparing himself. He has a wife and 1 kid. Wife makes him Chai strungi na mabakshish ya ugali ya jana as he dresses up.
By 5am he is on the road. Baba mzima na akili zake timamu instead of joining the walking nation to go look for a job in industrial area yeye destination ni town.
Anawacha wenzake wakienda Inda as he branches to town. Ni route 11. Ati tuonane wakubwa.
Once in town, this is now 6am…he has already made friends with newspaper vendors who are now lining up magazetti ya the day. He is given a taifa leo apitie tuu. Searches for the latest political news and grasped them all in his thick brainless head.
Now he starts walking slowly towards jeevanjee. By 6.30am he is already there. Many of his dunder heads had arrived earlier. He finds a topic already being discussed. It’s about the handshake. “apana bwana raila hangefanya hio hand sheikh omera”… Another one is like handshake imeleta maendoleo bwanaa. He is quickly answered back maendoleo gani na bado wewe unaisi kwa nyumba ya matope kangemi. Wueh nani tuheshiamiane. A fist fight is about to happen before Okech steps in with a new topic to diffuse the tension.
Ati mmaonaje hii mambo ya Mau forest… Hao watu watolewe ama? Watolewe buana… Hio ni siasa ya Ruto chieth… A nafa amalizwa na Ruto will never be president.
These topics go on and on until lunchtime when working class airburgers come to listen to the fake preachers. The bunge la mwananchi members also take a break. Agreement is all should return by 2pm. Some go to their relatives offices kuomba ka-lunch while some just go loitering around CBD window shopping while building castles in the air like nikipata kapesa hio kuku inazunguka zunguka hapo kwa kio nitakuja kukula na ubaya… Saizo kinameza mate as college kids enjoy the cheap njivas n kuku quarter.
Back to jeevanjee. Lunch session is over. It’s now a much heated debate. Kedo 4pm they go to parliament buildings to wait for their Mps to disembark. They have marked all their cars… Mp Akitoka tuu they jam the car at the gate ati mheshimiwa mheshimiwa tuna njaa.
Some Mps would throw them a 10K wagawane… Some will just Ignore them.
5pm Okech and crew are on their way home(s)… Respective homes. Okech anaingia kwa ploti majirani wanafiiri jamaa ameajiriwa kumbe wapi.
Enters house. His wife be like Baba Boi ujue leo mama wa kiosk amekataa kutukopa ati tuna deni yake mingi… Okech was lucky this day coz an MP at Parliament had given the group 70K wagawane… Each akapata 4k. Okech was like Mama Boi, shika hii pesa ulipe huyo mama alafu upitie pale kwa butchery ununue nyama na ukuje pia na unga ya ugali. Naujue leo mechi pale kitandani coomer itawaka moto… Ghasia
Tomorrow is back to basics… Repeat
