Some very backward politics. Naming and shaming an iconic figure in opposition politics is intended to shield himself from legitimate criticism that he is utterly incompetent and a claim that since he was legit elected then he is above reproach is simply preposterous
Very bad timing because the message is hard times are constrained to the rank and file but to those who helped her ascendancy in politics she can reward them despite economic hardships.
It is extremely insensitive to the economic harsh realities which majority are going through
Both of the beneficiaries do not need the gifts doled out to them beyond greed and abuse of public office. They could have politely turned them down but they did not because of avaricious appetite for freebies at the Exchequer expense
We know this stupid idea was inherited from shujaa wa Afrika rewarding those who helped him to the presidency but the idea was supposed to be scrapped during economic hardships following his demise but who cares anymore?
