President Uhuru Kenyatta has been assured of Kanu’s support in his bid to seek re-election, and it is now expected that Jubilee Party will work out an arrangement with the former ruling party as they prepare for this year’s General Election.
This follows a meeting between Uhuru and former President Daniel Moi.
The decision dampens attempts by the National Super Alliance (NASA) to work with Kanu, which still enjoys enormous influence in the vote-rich Rift Valley region.
Kanu had at some point been seen to gravitate towards NASA after Secretary General Nick Salat attended a meeting at the Bomas of Kenya in Nairobi and announced that the former ruling party would support NASA.
KANU/ODM/ URP/PNU etc are not really political parties.
They are personal property of a few wealthy individuals. The fans will follow wherever these go. None of them have an ideology or core values other than the dreams of its current head.
Tl;dr: upuss
This nonsense of politicians believing that they can buy off constituents by coniving with their community leaders is a misconception .Kenya is past those days.
