It is common for your enemies to wish you all the bad things in the world. it’s not different for Opposition chief Raila Odinga who on Saturday claimed that some of his political foes wished him dead when he was taken ill a few months ago in Dubai.

Imagine the tension. President Uhuru has sent Interior Cabinet Secretary Dr. Fred Matiang’i together with other Cabinet members on a 14-day working leave starting August 17.

The entire cabinet including cabinet secretaries, principal secretaries, chief administrative secretaries as well as the Attorney-General will only attend to national emergencies during this period.
The directive was given by the Head of Public Service Joseph Kinyua saying the next Cabinet meeting will happen on September 3.

Things are moving fast. Within a time frame of three days, two top Amani National Congress officials have left the party leaving its party leader Musalia Mudavadi has he push his bid for presidency come 2020.
The sudden exit of the secretary-general Barrack Muluka and Eliud Owalo has left the party in limbo.
Some party members want Musalia Mudavdi to contest for the top seat while others believe he should be Deputy President William Ruto’s running mate.
ANC party leader has however expressed his frustration of being told working for William Ruto.
“We welcome Ruto as long as he supports our bid for the presidency,” he said on Thursday.
Mudavadi added that there are no differences between Ruto and President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Sources claim that Muluka and Owalo have been behind the push for Mudavadi to support Ruto.
Mudavadi’s allies had sought to change the ANC constitution to stop the party leader from becoming any presidential candidate’s running mate in the next elections.
Sources say the changes were meant to make Musalia an automatic presidential candidate.
