Hon Ferdinand Waititu called for expulsion of all Maasais from Kayole oblivious of the fact that he was pitting himself against two Maasais in the Minister for Internal Security Metito and Director of Public Prosecutions Tobiko.
Even his equally combative and theatrical colleague Sonko after spiriting him out of parliament with the help of gullible police would not bail him out his self-inflicted troubles. He simply invited it upon himself. And he wouldn't have let his lips loose at a bad time. Kenyans are too aware of serial violence during election cycles.
Waititu may have gotten away with murder before but this time the odds are mightily stuck against him. Even his political boss has disowned him. While Makwere may be gifted in spitting sweetened poison with his gliding tongue, Waititu never bothers about sch niceties.
Abrasively condemning a whole community infront of the camera is obtuse impunity. While Kenya has changed a great deal, many of its leaders still retain mindsets hard-wired in antics of yore.
AG Muigai has promised Waititu to serve as an example of what hate speech can earn. Let the lwa take its course hoping that Kenyan's landlords will not disregard courts like they did with county commissioners.
