Introducing The Coalition for Reform and Democracy (CORD)

Raila. Yake ni timu ya kushinda.

 

[alpha5]

hao watu watapiga kura

 

[Royals]

Lakini kwa bahati mbaya wale wahuni wa ''Kusema na Kutenda'' a.k.a vijana wa The Hague wamemukalia vibaya kwa kuyapotosha makabila yao,lakini kwa hakika Amolo ni jembe la ukweli.Pia namshangaa Mudavadi alichomkataa Odinga sasa huko alikoenda kwa hao wahuni asitegemee atamshinda Uhuru,hizo ni ndoto,yeye anapiga hesabu kuwa atapita''katikati''yao wakati wakielekea kupigwa baridi kali la The Hague,ni sawa na fisi anayesubiri mkono udondoke.hata hivyo Mzee Moi alikuwa sahihi aliposema Kanu itatawala milele ona hiyo coliation ya akina Uhuru,Mudavadi si ni kanu ileile ya mzee Moi,chezee mzee wa Kabarak wewe...

Hiyo coliation yao ya Uhuruto ndiyo itawahuruta kweli kwa vile tayari kila mtu anaona ni mizizi ya ile chama ya kale ya Kenyata na Moi ambayo wakenya wengi walisha ipiga teke. Hapo ni sawa na fisi kujivisha ngozi ya kondoo.

AB Tichaz najiuliza akiwa rais itakuwaje furaha yako...lol

 

[SHERRIF ARPAIO]

The kikuyu political machine will never allow a luo to become Kenya's next prez.
Mark my words!

 

[Ab-Titchaz]

The kikuyu political machine will never allow a luo to become Kenya's next prez.
Mark my words!

SHERRIF ARPAIO,

...that myth has been shattered by the fact that Kenya has strengthened the constitution which puts
checks and balances into such exigencies.

...afu pia siku hizi ukabila umechukua mkondo tofauti kabisa katika masuala ya kura. Wale wanaojiona kama
wakikuyu bsi watatengwa na makabila mengine yote because watu wamechoka. Ndio mkikuyu atampigia
mkikuyu mwenzie lakini yale makabila mengine yote 41, yatampigia the next guy...regardless of tribe.

...kisha finally kumbuka Kenya has a huge urban population ambao wamezaliwa mitaa ya Nairobi, Mombasa,
Kisumu na miji mingine mikubwa. They are a product of mixed parentage and they no longer lean on this
ukabila thing.

...ngoma inogile!!

 

[Ab-Titchaz]

AB Tichaz najiuliza akiwa rais itakuwaje furaha yako...lol

Huyu jamaa ni jembe na inabidi hii kitu akwapue tu ndiposa Kenya kieleweke...any other scenario
is a nightmare because at the end of the day it will be this guy against Uhuru Kenyatta. Chagua
mwenyewe hapo.....:A S 100:

 

[Ab-Titchaz]

Mkuu Ab Tichaz. Heshima kwako mkuu.
Nimetosheka na maelezo yako jadi hapo mwisho wa picha ya pili. Wakati fulani kule Nairobi niliwahi kumuuliza mwendesha boda bada aliyenibeba kuhusu muunganiko huu unaoitwa sasa Uhuruto ili kuona mawazo yako. Kwa kweli utadhani mlifikiri pamoja. Jumla ya maneno yake yalikuwa "walidanganya sisi tukaingia vitani leo wanataka kudanganya sisi eti tuwe marafiki, wakati wa vita hatuoni wao wakibeba mishale" yaani wao Uhuruto. Ukweli sikumuuliza kama yeye ni kabila gani.

Upande wa Muunganiko wa pili ambao umeitwa Railonza sina maelezo ya kutosha zaidi ya umaarufu wa viongozi wao wakuu yaani bwana Raila mwenyewe na bwana. Kalonzo. Pale juu niliuliza asilimia za jumla ya watu toka Ukambani ili tujumlishe tuone je zitatosha kuwapiku muunganiko wa Uhuruto? kama itatokea lazima kwa kikuyu na kalenjini wapigie kura Uhuruto?

Lingine muunganiko wa Railonzo una vyama vingine kumi na vine vikiwemo vya Charity Ngilu na wengineo. Swali ni je kama ikitojea lazima kwa kila tu wa viongozi wa vyama hivi wapigie muungano wa Railonzo watasaidia kuwashinda ule muungano wa pili kwa kiasi gani?

Jambo jipya ninaloliona safari hii kwa bwana Raila ni kuwa ni kama kawa mtulivu zaidi maana zile mbwebwe zake tulizozioea ambazo zimeleta mabadiliko makubwa katika siasa za Kenya za Kibaki Tosha, Katiba Mpya, Chura kugombea maji na nyingine nyingi naona kama hanazo. Je, wafikiri ni kwa nini ? au ni kwa sababu anajua mwenyewe upepo unavyomwendea kwa kuwa waswahili tunasema " ukisikia mwanaume hakoromi ujue yuko macho". Mungu ibariki Kenya.

THE MARCH 2013 TWO-HORSE RACE

.
As they say, the devil lies in the details. Of the two major pre-election coalition deals deposited to the office of the Registrar of Political Parties on Tuesday 4th December (deadline set by IEBC), anecdotal word already suggests that the C.O.R.D deal was a thoroughly debated and more practical pact. It was painstakingly crafted through a number of weeks by lawyers like ODM's James Orengo, Wiper's Mutula Kilonzo, and Ford's Moses Wetangula, ultimately bringing together parties like ODM, Wiper, Ford-K, Narc, TIP, UDM, PDP, CCM, Agano and others. It is said to be both legally and politically sound – with the caveat that …do not rule out political chicanery from some turnaround politicians.

On the other hand, UDF, URP, and TNA's reactive pact was an afterthought last-minute deal, quickly cobbled at the Grand Laico Hotel within a couple of hours of IEBC's deadline. With the stroke of a pen, it nullified a much-touted earlier deal between TNA and URP unveiled yesterday at the Jeevanji Gardens. Without doubt, there are very many uneasy people earlier promised positions and perks in the previous Jeevanji deal who are already reassessing their positions in the new food-pyramid.

It is also this latter deal that raises important questions about the possible concessions that ultimately swayed UDF's Musalia Mudavadi into this ICC-besieged political partnership. It goes without say there was a sense of desperation on the URP/TNA team upon the unveiling of the formidable and politically-intimidating C.O.R.D, which for the first time, brought together the Ukambani leadership into one political basket. Such signs are definitely what triggered the frenzied outreach to Musalia Mudavadi.

Rushed deals are often fraught with minefields. Reports indicate that Musalia was promised from an array of lucrative positions predicated on a joint primary between himself and TNA's Uhuru Kenyatta. In the deal, Ruto was guaranteed the running mate spot, bar for a court ruling prohibiting the latter's run. Were Musalia to beat Uhuru Kenyatta in a joint TNA/URP/UDF primary nomination, Mudavadi would be guaranteed the Presidential ticket with Ruto as running mate.

If Musalia lost to Uhuru, the former would then mount a Senate bid and go for the position of Senate majority leader should their coalition win. The final possible permutation in the last-minute deal was based on possible court sanctions barring Uhuru (& possibly Ruto) from running for public office. In that case, the deal declared Mudavadi as the fallback automatic Presidential candidate, with Sally Kosgey negotiated as possible running mate.

Out side the box, the implication for the general election is a number of interesting scenarios pitting two horses from either of C.O.R.D and TNA/URP/UDF; with Nacr-K's Martha Karua or KNC's Peter Kenneth lingering as important wildcards should Uhuru Kenyatta's name miss from the ballot.

-------------------------------–-------------------------------–
Possible scenarios of the two horse race – with the wildcards listed where applicable:

1. Raila-Kalonzo (CORD) v Uhuru-Ruto (TNA/URP/UDF) ….very likely (Musalia's impact – NIL)
2. Raila-Kalonzo (CORD) v Mudavadi-Ruto (TNA/URP/UDF) v Karua or Kenneth (Narc-K or KNC) wildcard…possible (Kikuyu vote tenuous)
3. Raila-Kalonzo (CORD) v Mudavadi-Sally Kosgei (TNA/URP/UDF) v Karua or Kenneth (Narc-K or KNC) in case courts bar Uhuru and Ruto (ditto)

------------------------------------------------------------------

Be your own judge as to the prospects of each of these competitors in scenarios such as (but not limited to) these above. The ODM leadership must be sitting comfortably as they plan to mount a nationwide campaign in the emerging two-horse race. It is clear there is one coalition of reformers and another coalition of suspects; irrespective of who heads the TNA/URP/UDF ticket. The dice has been cast and the labels sealed. Uhuru, Mudavadi, and Ruto are a trio that entered politics barely in their twenties, growing up under the Nyayo era and vigorously opposing reforms.

It may not also be immediately clear where New Ford-Kenya's Eugene Wamalwa and KADDU's Cyrus Jirongo have ended up but without say, Wamalwa feels terribly used and humiliated by the TNA/URP/UDF coalition. The political implications in the larger Bungoma and Trans Nzoia counties could only be guessed given the fact that Bukusu (comprising almost 40% of the Luhya population) consider themselves fairly independent of Mudavadi.

There are already signs of serious grumbling building also from Kenyatta-elites who instead preferred that the Deputy Prime Minister enter a deal with Eugene Wamalwa rather than Musalia Mudavadi. Their main reason is that Musalia is surrounded by a bunch of forceful and eloquent populists led by Ikolomani MP Bonny Khalwale – the most ardent promoter of a Mudavadi presidency outside Vihiga. They have studied well how Khalwale handled corruption allegations of former Finance Minister Amos Kimunya in and out of Parliament.

Kenyatta handlers fear that should Mudavadi become President, Khalwale would automatically become a powerful insider. The Kenyatta elite fear that Khalwale and his ilk would most definitely mobilize for the populist cooperation with the ICC; jeopardizing Kenyatta's ultimate freedom and security of his wealth from ICC's Victims Trust Fund (which compensates victims of crimes against humanity). They also argue that this group's stance on matters such as land reforms is a mirror image of that held by ODM's leadership.

The next 72 hours will prove quite interesting as more breaking-news continue trickling in this fast-evolving political terrain. One thing is clear right now. Without the new Constitution, Kenyans would by now still be wallowing in complete darkness – the type the likes of Kibaki love to lull masses into. Besides mandates and deadlines for pre-election coalitions, watch out for more elements of the new Constitution kicking in…ain't it interesting.

ab tichaz i respect your enthusiasm for a raila presidency but do not let it cloud your judgement. i have said here many times Kenya votes on tribal lines even a standard 2 kid Knows that, as much as you would want to ignore this its the bitter truth. kikuyu votes from uhuru kenyatta are more than the combined luo(raila) and kalonzo( votes), add the kalenjin votes lets say ruto just get 50% and mudavadi atleast 20 % of the Luhya vote. it does not matter what the resst of kenya votes are simply a raila-kalonzo starts with an disadvantage

Kosgey meets Ruto
after coalition rally Orange Democratic Movement chairman Henry Kosgey was last evening at the United Republican Party offices, sparking speculation that he was about to part ways with Prime Minister Raila Odinga.

Mr Kosgey had earlier witnessed his party enter into an agreement with the Wiper Democratic Movement at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre in Nairobi. (Read: Raila and Kalonzo put ink to paper in coalition pact) The Industrialisation minister, however, was non-committal on why he had gone to Eldoret North MP William Ruto's party offices, saying that the media read too much in meetings between politicians. "You people read too much in meetings between us. Meeting Ruto is not a problem; even my party leader Raila Odinga has met him many times. I am still in ODM," he said at Parliament Buildings.

At the URP offices on Muchai Drive off Ngong Road were TNA-URP presidential aspirant Uhuru Kenyatta, Mr Ruto, Cabinet minister Chirau Ali Mwakwere and MPs Najib Balala and Charles Keter. Mr Kosgey said he was still in ODM and will fight it out with Vice-President Kalonzo Musyoka to become Prime Minister Raila Odinga's running mate. He argued that he had invested a lot of political energy in ODM campaigns and would not allow the VP to get the slot on a silver platter.

"We have cultivate this piece of land (ODM) to get rid of weeds. I am not going to allow the VP to benefit from our sweat. I am still in the race to become the PM's running mate," he said. ODM holds a National Delegates Conference on Friday to nominate its presidential candidate and running mate. Addressing journalists after the meeting that lasted about two hours, Mr Mwakwere said signing the agreement on Monday did not lock out other like-minded politicians, or political parties, from joining the coalition.

dadangu nakupenda sana. but you are living in utopia. a kenyan an go to live in mars and come back still vote for his tribesman,simply this will not go way soon its wishful thinking and i want ab tichaz to deny this if its not true.. as with all politics its the numbers that matter. HAKUNA KITU KINGINE JUST NUMBERS just do your calculation and see. you know you dont know kenya very well, the new generation you are talking about still is affected by tribalism this will never change overnight. to you uhuru and ruto are criminals but to a kikuyu or kalenjin they are heroes,remember hating a person does not change anything. remember the past US election how obama won, he won simply because he had an head-start backing from states with large electoral votes, like california that made it hard for romney to catch up in all only afew swing states remained,but for romney to get there it was harder than obama. OBAMA HAD A SHORTER ROUTE THAN ROMNEY BECAUSE OF THE ELECTORAL VOTES. same case with mudavadi-uhuru-ruto they have a shorter route to presidency because they have an head start in numbers. they just need a few votes lets say 25% from the swing counties to win as opposed to raila and kalonzo whose route is much longer, they need every vote

Kaka, unapendwa pia, but you are talking generalities. Msemo huo kuhusu wakenya is simply not true. Ingekua people vote only for their tribemates in Kenya basi scores za elections zingekua tofauti sana na zinavo tokea. I know a group of Nandis who think that Ruto should simply step down and any attempt from him to represent kenyans (any tribe) should be blocked for security reasons. But pia najua watu ambao wanampenda just because he is from their tribe. Tuondokane na generalities kwanza.

its wishful thinking and i want ab tichaz to deny this if its not true.. as with all politics its the numbers that matter. HAKUNA KITU KINGINE JUST NUMBERS just do your calculation and see. you know you dont know kenya very well, the new generation you are talking about still is affected by tribalism this will never change overnight. to you uhuru and ruto are criminals but to a kikuyu or kalenjin they are heroes,remember hating a person does not change anything.

Samahani, sijasema kabisa kua Uhuru and Ruto are criminals, I wouldn't dare. NImesema to some, that coalision looks like a gang of criminals, and it was echoed by international media. There is a propaganda to push forward that perception. Ndio maana nimesema, ilikua muhimu wahakikishe they have clean records before they start campaigning, or at least make alliances with other guys with cleaner records.
Beside, I might not be Kenyan but I know Kenya more than you seem to think, and when I say that some people are not influenced by tribalism, I know what I am talking about.

remember the past US election how obama won, he won simply because he had an head-start backing from states with large electoral votes, like california that made it hard for romney to catch up in all only a few swing states remained,but for romney to get there it was harder than obama. OBAMA HAD A SHORTER ROUTE THAN ROMNEY BECAUSE OF THE ELECTORAL VOTES. same case with mudavadi-uhuru-ruto they have a shorter route to presidency because they have an head start in numbers. they just need a few votes lets say 25% from the swing counties to win as opposed to raila and kalonzo whose route is much longer, they need every vote

Again, hizi hesabu zako zinaenda na premise kua the number of people in a tribe = the number of people who will vote for so or so. Kuna ukweli ndani yake, but not 100% of people vote on a tribal basis. Some people vote for "peace", some vote "programs", some vote "continuity", some vote "economic interests" etc. Hao wapo na hao ndio equivalent ya swing state huku.

Two MPs allied to Uhuru Kenyatta's TNA attended a strategy meeting between Prime Minister Raila Odinga and Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka held at Jogoo house on Thursday afternoon.

Makadara MP Gideon Mbuvi and nominated MP Rachel Shebesh were the surprise attendants of the closed door meeting.

Mr Sonko and Ms Shebesh told journalists that they had visited the Vice President for a cup of tea after the meeting.

The meeting lasted about 40 minutes and delved into the respective ODM and Wiper party national delegates conferences (NDC), according to the VP's spokesperson Baristo Kaplich.

Mr Odinga's ODM will hold its NDC on Friday, while Wiper Party will convene on Monday next week.

Mr Odinga was accompanied to the meeting by ministers Franklin Bett (Roads) and Dalmas Otieno (Public Service), while Mr Kalonzo had party members Prof Philiph Kaloki, Charles Kilonzo, Gideon Ndambuki and nominated MP Mohammed Affey on his side.

Both camps did not address the media.

According to Mr Kaplich, the meeting also discussed when the leaders will officially launch their Coalition for Reform and Democracy (Cord).

The formal announcement of the power sharing deal was withheld until Mr Odinga's ODM and Mr Musyoka's WDM hold their respective NDCs to ratify the positions in accordance with the Political Parties Act

The Act requires that any coalition deal be supported by a resolution of the highest organs of the parties involved.

"They also had a conversation around lobbying for more political parties to join the coalition," he said.

The meeting comes after Mr odinga and Mr Kilonzo signed a pre-election agreement with 11 other political parties on Tuesday this week.

The deal was sealed on the final day as parties raced against time to beat the deadline to lodge coalition agreements with the Registrar of Political Parties as required by law.

In their agreement, Mr Musyoka and Mr Odinga did not announce who would be the presidential candidate or running mate.

But sources indicated that Ford Kenya leader Moses Wetang'ula was to be the alliance's majority leader in Parliament if the coalition forms the next government and garners a majority in the House.

Other parties in the Cord alliance include the National Rainbow Coalition (Narc) led by Water Minister Charity Ngilu, the People's Democratic Party (PDP) led by former South Mugirango MP Omingo Magara, and Kenya Social Congress (KSC) of legislator George Anyona, who died in 2003. Mkenya Solidarity associated with former Mungiki leader Maina Njenga, Kalembe Ndile's Tip, Chama Cha Uzalendo, Kaddu Asili, the United Democratic Movement (UDM), Agano and Muungano form part of the Cord mix.

The agreement, which was crafted by a team of lawyers representing the coalition partners led by Lands Minister James Orengo (ODM), Education Minister Mutula Kilonzo (Wiper) and Mr Chrisanthus Wamalwa (Ford Kenya) has a clause providing for its amendment to accommodate the interests of other parties interested in joining the coalition.

Wamalwa in coalition talks with Raila


By Caroline Rwenji

Prime Minister Raila Odinga on Thursday held talks with the New Ford Kenya party leader Eugene Wamalwa as political parties continue forming coalitions.

Mr Wamalwa said he was holding a consultative meeting with the Orange Democratic Party leader before talking to other coalitions.

"It is the early days yet in the game, everything is still happening. We will continue holding talks with Raila, Musalia and others in different coalitions," he said.

However, the Prime Minister declined to comment about the talks held at a Nairobi hotel.

ODM's James Orengo vaguely stated that the two teams had held "very productive talks".

Mr Wamalwa failed to reveal what position he is likely to take up on joining the coalition simply saying that, "anything is possible".

"We were just having a cup of tea with the Prime Minister and his team and consulting generally. After the December 4 deadline, coalitions can now talk to each other," he said.

On Tuesday, the Justice and Constitution minister was part of other presidential aspirants who formed the Pambazuko Coalition ticket.

The coalition brought together the New Vision Party headed by Nicholas Biwott, Cyrus Jirongo's Federal Party of Kenya, Shirikisho and New Ford-K. According to the deal, the flag bearer will be elected by the National Delegates Committee.
