Michuki’s Blunders On Mt Elgon

Mount Elgon has become so volatile that contingent's of para-military
Units, and the police have failed to stop the killings being undertaken by the so-called fierce Sabaot land defense force.

The tough talking minister for security John Michuki has not even bothered to visit the area and prefers to make statements from the confines of parliament or his secured Harambee house office.

Yet it will not cost too much for the minister to visit the area and assure the people that the government was doing everything to stop the human butchering activities there where even women and children are not spared.

With resources at his disposal, Me-chuki could fly there in a police or military helicopter and convene a meeting with the locals and be back in his plush residence near Windsor golf and country club before sunset.

But the fire spitting minister has instead taken a swipe at the media accusing it of claiming the government was doing nothing over the clashes yet several security personnel had been deployed to the area to quell the situation.

Michuki should have resigned a long time ago. In fact soon after the raid on Standard newspapers premises or better still Kibaki should have sacked him, but he didn't. It is reasons like this that make the Kibaki administration unpopular and increase the chances of the opposition forming the next government.

Kibaki might not care whether he wins re-election or not but he should be concerned about the legacy he intends to leave behind and should tackle the tribalism and nepotism problem that is deeply entrenched in his government and perpetuated by people like Michuki who ensured his son in law, Mutahi Kagwe was appointed minister after Dr Chris Murungaru was dropped.
