Prime Minister,President tell Parliament:Agree For Us

Interesting times are here for Kenya's parliament courtesy of the new constitution.

The MPs are tasting the benefit of true parliamentary democracy, and the fate of nominees to justice and budget office jobs lies in their hands With their increased parliamentary influence surely MPs now have all the freedom in the world and the biggest winner is the people of Kenya courtesy of H.Es "hands off approach" and a PM known to favour a parliamentary system of government.

Kudos to VPORK Musyoka whose one man continent wide ICC deferral crusade pushed to the top of the agenda discussions between the 2 principals on the impending prosecution of the Ocampo 6. But then again PORK apologists will be quickl to give President Kibaki credit pointing out how during his tenure the incumbent has consistently sought to make his a truly unofficial devolved style of government by handing over more responsibility for running the country to his lieutenants. In this yet again H.E. was a man ahead of his time

The Prime Minister in his supervisory and co-ordinating role has also equally been known to favour a more consultative approach involving cracking the whip where necessary. Over now to the JLA and FPT departmental house committees. But wait a minute doesn't a fractured ODM (thanks to William Ruto pitting himself against the Prime Minister in his quest to be the next executive PM) control the legislative arm of government by virtue of more MPs?

Given that there is no credible official opposition in parliament discounting the few disgruntled NARC Kenya back benchers, Kenyans can only hope that House Speaker Marende's newly acquired referee role as the biblically wise 'political Solomon' will not relegate to parliament any future disagreements between the two principals as this might be tantamount to rubber stamping government business by prejudiced and set minds from the party with the majority in parliament just so that state affairs may be conducted smoothly

Nevertheless Kenya is still moving forward and Kenyans need to be vigilant as their MPigs are still falsely secure in the knowledge that despite the recall clause included the new constitution is not yet fully implemented and therefore MPs are off the hook as far as redeeming their image of being a hindrance to national development is concerned. This political stalemate must be broken and the law must be applied equally to all in both spirit and letter. God bless Kenya

New Constitution Tested, Judiciary Rejects Kibaki Nominees, Marende Ducks Ruling

Less than a week after being consultatively appointed by the executive authority, Kenyans witnessed bold masterstrokes from the Judiciary in correcting the theatre of politically absurd as President Kibaki's newly nominated coterie of Chief Justice, Attorney General, Director of Public Prosecutions and Controller of budget were today dealt a severe blow in the ongoing constitutional battle against the approval of PORK's nominee's

The new constitution lived up to its much hyped billing by taking back the executive's jurisdiction over the court's and providing High court judge Daniel Musinga the much needed teeth with which to emphasise the commensurate bite that Kenya is for all Kenyans of all tribes, colour and creed and affirmative action excluding no professional career and qualified citizen from being fit to be appointed to any senior leadership position in the country.

However, no one understands peculiar Kenyans better than their duly elected equally peculiar leaders voted in by unanimous ethnically segrated universal sufferage. Having successfully divided us against each other they are now forever assured of a split cheering squad bitterly plotting still-birth Egypt/Tunisia style revolutions on social media (Twitter) while simultaneously praying for no further interruptions to the schedule of full implementation for the new constitution by the very same MPs! Normal human beings only have to be bitten once to become shy but peculiar Kenyans continue to enjoy the beauty of the view of every floor on their way down oblivious of the had pavement waiting to kiss their skulls open at the base

Parliament meanwhile continues to chase its tail with House speaker Kenneth Marende judiciously delegating the decision to bite the bullet to a divided relevant House committees. Disillusioned Kenyans expected the former E.mu.ha.ya MP to A I M H I G H E R than his previous LGB (Leader of Government Business) House ruling where he infamously sacrificed his own neck selflessly on the chopping block to break the stalemate between divorce prepared coalition marriage partners ODM and PNU

Thank God we have an effective consititution to fight injustice on our behalf, and baby-step taking Kenyans are slowly gaining confidence in learning how to turn the heat up from the kitchen as the political elite increasingly come face to face with their frail humanity as they find themselves within easy reach of litigation and other forms of checks for accountability. The law must be interpreted in both spirit and letter, and not according to usual me myself and I Kenyan politics. God Bless Kenya
