As Maandamanos return, where will bribed rebel Azimio legislators who voted for the Finance bill go?

 

Ruto policies 

have provoked the masses to the fresh round of Maandamanos coming. UDA was helping Kenyans do press-ups in preparation

Super fascinatingly, the passing of the Finance bill this week was well orchestrated with bribes, threats and everything else Ruto could throw at legislators to ensure its’ passage. 

Azimio supporters are horrified at the signs that even some well known Azimio legislators were bribed to stay away from the vote with flimsy excuses. Others, like Nairobi women’s rep Esther Passaris voted for Ruto’s oppressive finance bill without butting an eye-lid while still trying to sell the unsaleable narrative that it is “good for Kenya”.

Analysts believe that this latest development in the ranks of Azimio is a very clear sign that maandamano (street protests) are back and the Azimio rally at Kamukunji on Tuesday will only be used to launch the protests.

There are those who are convinced that Azimio have lost the momentum of street protests and it will take considerable effort to build it up again. But those would be those Kenyans who are completely ignoring what is really happening in Kenya at the moment.

Indeed Ruto and his UDA cronies have played the most effective role in ensuring that when the street protests resume, they will be unstoppable and uncontrollable. They already have a momentum that is much stronger than what they had before. And this has a lot to do with what the government has been doing.

Corruption scandals have escalated with the latest one being the edible oils saga which saw a handful of Kenyans cooly walk away with billions of instant cash. And at the expense of long suffering Kenyans.

The fact that government cronies of Ruto respond rudely and with insults to media reports showing evidence of the corruption just makes matters worse. And at the same time those close to Ruto are showing us all the clear evidence of recently acquired massive wealth. Many have been spotted with expensive designer personal items. Others have completely changed the way they dress.

In fact the big mystery here is why Ruto and the government cannot “see” what they have done and what they are still doing to aid Raila’s maandamanos.

All this is nothing but very serious provocation that guarantees that when Azimio does return to the streets they will be joined by such a massive crowd of people that the whole game will change and most likely end the Ruto presidency.
