Who Paid Kibaki’s London Hospital Bills?

That is the question being asked by Kenyans even as blundering government spokesman Afred Mutua tried to hood wink the press that the money was paid from the generous health scheme parliamentarians enjoy, knowing full well that it would be difficult for this to be confirmed by the nosy newsmen.

He had of course overlooked the fact that simple mental deduction can quite often rule out certain possibilities. In this case the President was technically not an MP at the time he went to London for treatment as parliament had already been adjourned to make way for the campaign period.

This lie by the government has drawn even more attention to this issue because it is now clear that this administration is very determined to keep that piece of information secret. This leads us to one conclusion and one conclusion only. That the characters who cleared the hospital bills are most probably not the sort that the President would like to be associated with - especially now.

In future Kenyans should make up their minds as to what their views are on a Presidential candidate that accepts such gifts.
