“JUST ANOTHER PROBLEM” (JAP) IN TROUBLE

By Armstrong K. Abala
The "Vigogo" of JAP


With the current situation brewing in Rift valley, our eyes are all set there to see how the drama unfolds.

He has maintained that all is well and that the JAP, OR JP or JUST ANOTHER PROBLEM as its critics are calling it has gained momentum and cannot be stopped, I am referring to Deputy President William Ruto whose backyard is politically charged as several allies have come out to criticize the dissolution of URP in Favor of JAP.

Ruto’s woes escalated when his allies now turned critic, Bomet Governor Issac Ruto’s new party PPPK, Beat JAP in a Ward by- Election in the region.

The battle is even sweeter as several leaders have vehemently disowned JAP’s candidate for Kericho Senatorial By-Election in favor of the KANU candidate.

Led by Gedion Moi and Bomet Governor Issac Ruto, the leaders have said they will not join JAP, with Nandi MP Alfred Keter calling the party “JUST ANOTHER PROBLEM”.

There are strong indications that the Kericho by-election will not be a walk in the park for Mr Ruto who is seeking to stamp his authority on the Kalenjin Rift valley amid opposition from some politicians.

Jubilee Alliance Party (JAP) suffered a blow on Wednesday after a section of its supporters in Kipkelion West Constituency also declared support for Kanu’s candidate Mr Paul Sang following claims that JAP primaries were skewed in favour of one candidate.

Things are even more interesting with CORD Coalition and also Former Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi’s party, the Amani National Congress, having also thrown their weight behind the Kanu candidate, a former Cabinet minister.

Now the failing JAP that has been ailing since its idea was started is in a cat and mouse situation with other stake holders like the Meru governor Peter Munya also denouncing it and even threatening to form a party he will run with on the gubernatorial seat.

We are yet to see the developments and the rebirth of KANU (chama cha mama na baba) in the RIFT.

A people's revolution has been tested before, let no one say it cannot happen in Kenya. By Abala Kinyua If you say #Kenya cannot stage a people's revolution & kick out bad governance and corruption, you may have lived in a different country in January of 2018. The only thing is, that revolution may not work if it is led by the same politicians. Here is a tweet by Abala Kinyua; https://twitter.com/AbalaKinyua/status/1128294709263261696

Why The 2/3 Gender Rule Can’t Work in The Kenyan Political System. By Abala Kinyua Women Deserve to Lead Because Many Are Capable. However, Get This; We Are Not Going to Award People Elective Seats Simply Because They Are Women’ Pic; Courtesy Women empowerment can roughly be defined as a procedure through which women procure abilities and readiness to fundamentally dissect their circumstances and make suitable moves to change their status in the general public. There are several ways and forms of women empowerment in the society. However, as a political writer, I would like to center my article on ‘POLITICAL EMPOWERMENT’ a major form of women empowerment that brings a lot of emotions and arguments. In the era of democracy where the voter is expected to elect the leaders of their choice, empowering women politically has become an aspect of much debate and arguments; Should women be awarded free seats, should be they given ‘special’ treatment to allow them trounce their male ...

IT IS NOW INCUMBENT UPON NASA TO INVEST IN THE NEW PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION By Armstrong K. Abala The Supreme Court nullified the Presidential election of 2017 after a successful petition by NASA citing several massive rigging. As usual NASA has swung into action demanding they set the new electoral date and claiming that the new dates announced by the Independent Electoral and boundaries commission are in fact dates set by their opponent Jubilee party. The NASA has in fact threatened not to participate in the new presidential election if the IEBC is not reconstituted. My opinion and advice to the National super Alliance is that crying foul at all times sometimes can result into an anti climax to your supporters. We only have 41 days if not less to the election and you need to be getting your house in order to ensure you win the new election instead of spending all your time targeting the IEBC. There is no doubt that there are several employees or agents...
