It’s May Be Just A Game But…

There is a high possibility that all these arrests and withdrawal of passports from key individuals is just a political game.

Some analysts believe that it could be the just the trick to break ODM. You see most of the people mentioned are Kanu. Kanu is still a force because all the stolen money from corruption is still safe and sound in the hands of key Kanu people. Get them on the NAK side and election victory is assured.

These analysts insist that the fellows will have little choice when told to choose between prosecution and supporting the government while their cases are delayed until people forget. People forget pretty quickly. Remember how Gideon Moi was cheered by the wananchi at Uhuru Park in the run up to the referendum.

I have a strong feeling that even if this is the game plan, it will not quite work out like that. See the next article for details.

Even some of the resignations are as a result of pressure from quite unexpected sources. The srticle below has been circulating through email boxes of Kenyans. There is no way we can verify its’ accuracy, so read it with an open mind…

We reproduce it here with spelling grammatical errors, exactly as it is being circulated


Is it stranger than fiction?. OR is it Realpolitik at work?
I think it is apply Machiavellian principle of FOX!!




Mwiraria did not resign specifically because of the pressure of
Anglo-Leasing, a senior government official in the VP office has confirmed.
Friday, last week the United States government wrote to the Prezzy and
copied the letter to Mwiraria warning that unless the Finance minister
resigned or was sacked the US would not grant him a Visa to attend a high
profile donors meeting (IMF and World Bank)in Washington DC.

Monday morning the letters were delivered. Tuesday evening after theWorld
bank underlined their pressure to withhold money and not deal with Mwiraria
President kibaki and his men sense the seriousness of the issue, so
Kibaki summons them to State house for an evening meeting.
the meeting discussed among other things options out for Mwiraria, but
it was agreed he had to leave the treasury to avoid embarrassment by the US
government via a publicly communicated Visa denial.

Tuesday no conclusions, so Wednesday morning, Kiraitu, Mwiraria the VP
and Muthaura gather at State House again, and the option of a minor cabinet
reshuffle is considered but that too was dismissed as a poor strategy.
Mutahi Ngunyi, who has been a key advisor of the government since leaving
the nation is summoned for his intriguing options and he suggests the
sacrifice principle, quoting an incident when Moi had to sack Biwott and
even jail him over the Ouko report to cool down tempers and then release
him and make him a powerful minister after the public had forgotten.
Everyone in attendance agrees, but questions emerge over repercussions of
the resignation to the rest who are caught up in the Anglo-Leasing issue.
At that point the Mutahi says that they should follow up the resignation
with the release of the goldenberg report, which just happened this
morning.

With that a call is made to DP headquarters to have a press conference at
12.00pm demanding the resignation of Mwiraria, at 1: 30 after the lunchtime
news the press release circulates that Mwiraria has a press
Conference....then the guy resigns, more out of donor pressure, a visa
hitch embarrassment scenario rather than to pave way for investigations.
The rest are to stay put to the end.the meeting agrees.no speeches on
the matter.However Thursday morning, the VP is summoned to State House
again this time for a brief that he has to defend himself, stare at the Camera's
and argue that Immigration department has a new minister so you cannot
interfere with investigations, cancel the cabinet meeting earlier called by
Muthaura to ensure the divisions on Anglo-Leasing do not permeate the level
till it sorted out. And that is why Mwiraria quit, like the lamb that was
sacrificed to enable the exodus passover..so was Mwiraria....
