Controversial political analyst, Mutahi Ngunyi who predicted the election of Uhuru Kenyatta as the fourth president of Kenya has since come forward to predict yet another victory.
Renowned political analyst, Prof Mutahi Ngunyi, has predicted the outcome of the much anticipated BBI referendum.
Speaking during an interview yesterday, Ngunyi predicted that the referendum to pass the BBI proposals will be voted through quite easily.
According to Ngunyi, the BBI referendum will pass seamlessly so long as President Uhuru Kenyatta and ODM leader, Raila Odinga are in support.
“The last time I was here, I told you that the people who cast the votes don’t count, it is the people who count the votes.” Mutahi Ngunyi said.
“People can decide not to support the BBI but so long as Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga are part of the process, you can’t defeat them because they will win,” he added.
The analyst added that the two leaders had the ability to influence changes in Kenya based on their power which includes State instruments.
“They are the owners of things because they hold positions of power. There is a difference between positions of authority and positions of power.”
“William Ruto occupies positions of authority because he gets the position on the account of the seat he sits on.”
“The people who are owners of power and who have the instruments of the state, William Ruto likes to call it the system, those are the people who determine the future of the country,” Ngunyi added.
Ngunyi believes William Ruto will be vying for a position that doesn’t exist at all come 2022.

Ngunyi predicts that the BBI proposal will end up with an Executive Prime Minister and a ceremonious President by the end of the year.
“At the end of this year, my hunch is that people will be seeing William Ruto on the streets and wondering, who was he again? Was he a comedian? They will not remember who he was.”
“That’s my thinking. And I could be wrong on that. Two, by the time we are done with this year we will have a completely new architecture.
That architecture is going to have a Ceremonial President, which is why I’m saying Ruto is going for a position that will not exist.
We will also have an Executive Prime Minister,” Ngunyi said.
