Kenya: No Longer At Ease

A couple of weeks ago a regular poll conducted by Ipsos Synovate revealed that 64 percent of Kenyans believe the country was headed in the wrong direction.

Even in the heartlands of the Jubilee Government in Central and Rift Valley only 54 percent and 40 percent of Kenyans respectively believed things were going in the right direction.

Startlingly, a majority of Kenyans (54 percent) were polled as saying the Jubilee government had achieved nothing so far. The high cost of living and insecurity were the primary issues worrying citizens. I'll admit to having been surprised by these statistics.

Opinion polls, opinion polls........the best way to sink a point home is to use statistics but gathering, and interpreting them is a murky business.

1. are you sure poll officials did not recieve brown envelopes?

2. where else apart from central and R.V was poll conducted?
