Kenya Succession - PNU Plan

Mr. John Keen said it right. The opinion poll conductors should do their work with professionalism. When you start seeing decimal numbers in percentage points all of a sudden, then you start wondering whether or not somebody is trying to force a tie and your confidence in the results get eroded.

While it is acknowledged that Moi was a political strategist who, "like a giraffe saw far", we are now starting to see! some long-term strategies by Kibaki. Kibaki appointed only people from both Northern and Southern GEMA regions to the Ministries of Finance, Education, and 90% of the Provincial Administration and Internal Security.

In doing so, Kibaki was running a dry test to see how the "outsiders" will react. As it turned out, the tests proved that the "outsiders", that is non-GEMA Kenya complained and complained, cried and cried, shouted and shoute until cows came home and chicken came to roost and there was not even a dent on his administration.

Now, Kibaki is decided that if he wins a next term, he will appoint Uhuru Kenyatta as the Vice President and Gideon Moi to the high-profile but safe for the otherwise maligned Ministry of Trade and Industry. In 2012, Uhuru will runfor president with Gideon as his running mate and vice president. David will run for the Othaya seat.

Gideon could have been appointed to the Ministry of Education like his Dad was but the teachers' strikes, crowded classrooms, and low qualities could stain his name further. The Ministry of Home Affairs is no longer high-profile as in the days of Gideon's Dad when he used to give a rude white settler 24 hours to leave the country.

When Uhuru takes over, Gideon will be the vice president, and David Minister of Finance like his Dad was. In 2017, Gideon will run for president with David as his running mate. By that time, one of Mzee's grandchildren will be old enough to run for parliament and be appointed Minister.

The ruling dynasty will have been established in Kenya from the three Kenyan "royal families" - the Kenyatta royal family, the Moi royal family, and the Kibaki royal family. It will be slightly different from the British royal family in that in Kenya, it will be a "committe type or more social type of royal family.

The billions of Shillings that have already been shipped and safely stored abroad will be used by the descendants to establish the dynasty. For Moi, life could not have been much better than it is now. For Kibaki, it is all smiles knowing that the friend he almost lost because of the Mount Kenya Mafia is now back as the bosom friend he had been for years.

And to make the sailing smoo! th for Uhuru, Martha and Saitoti will enjoy the flag only until the next Cabinet is made. Kituyi will not see parliament again although he is now positioning himself to be go back to parliament as a nominated MP. Things will have developed so fast for Nyachae that he will retire before 2012. As for Moody, he is VP only until the time the next Cabinet is made. Afterall, he will not win his Funyula seat which works out well for Kibaki and his plan of appointing Uhuru VP.
