It is on record that when ODM presidential hopeful Kalonzo Musyoka was launching his presidential bid, top on his list was the promise of free Secondary school education. So it would seem that the president's handlers have stolen the idea from Kalonzo.
This is the exact fear that this blogger had as we were preparing a major strategy for our preferred Presidential candidate. We have a number of brilliant and practical ideas on how the country can tackle her major problems. The huge obstacle in Africa is that everybody steals ideas and then pretends that it was their idea in the first place.
But whether the free secondary school education idea was stolen or not, the big question is, is it enough to see President Kibaki safely back in State House?
We come back to the General Mulinge story told in the previous post. Voters are emotional animals who do very little reasoning. Just looking at most of the comments in this blog, seems to strongly support that thesis. What the means is that the big announcement has changed little on the ground in terms of voting patterns. Kenyans will still vote emotionally come December based on the candidate that they like. And no amount of reasoning will change their minds. It matters little that their preferred candidate stole billions during the Moi days and almost single-handedly (with a few others) took Kenyans back over 20 years from whence it will be virtually impossible to recover.
That is why I view al the slick PR that includes neat statistics of Kenyans who have been lifted out of poverty during the Kibaki administration with lots of skepticism. Such things do not work in politics. At least not in Kenyan politics.
