Kalonzo Musyoka’s About Turn On The Steadmann Polls

In the recently released opinion polls which rated Kalonzo Musyoka a poor third position in the presidential race, his supporters swiftly dismissed it as a skewed poll but some political analysts (not this blogger) agreed with it in totality. Kalonzo too told the press exactly what his supporters had said.

In other words what Kalonzo is telling us is that when the Steadmann poll has him ahead of Raila, it is accurate but when he is third, it is inaccurate. Can you believe that?

For starters, nothing much was known about Musyoka until towards the end of last year when the media and the public put the soft speaking Mwingi North MP under a microscope and found out he had enough skeletons in his closet just like any other politician.

Kalonzo Musyoka's popularity got a heavy beating when one of the daily papers revealed the story of how he and his lawyer partner got involved in a land deal where they committed fraud. He was the deputy speaker when he got involved in the deal in question and missed jail by a whisker.

Things got worse when it was revealed that Musyoka is a big pretender who gives Kenyans the impression that he is a deeply religious person yet he is heavily involved in witchcraft activities and is almost always accompanied by a witchdoctor known as Wa Maiyo who is also a nominated councilor in Mwingi.

As if these facts were not bad enough for his image, Musyoka shot himself on the foot over the past two month's as it emerged he was the stumbling block in ODM's quest on finalizing the modalities to be used in electing its presidential candidate. It was Musyoka and his team, which boycotted sessions of meetings over trivial differences forcing the meetings to be postponed several times.

It also has to be appreciated that Musyoka has done little if not nothing in fighting for democracy in this country and on the contrary, he was an avid supporter of the tyrannical Moi era that was notorious for the abuse of human rights including denying wananchi freedom of speech.

Musyoka however has something going for him, his age and youthful looks. Being in his early 50's, he is relatively young and could still appeal to the millions of youth voters and even if he doesn't make it this time, he can always look forward to 2012 when the next elections will be held after the much awaited one later this year.
