    Okay, here we go again. The dynasty is returning while the hustlers roast in the sun. The hustlers were promised they were to be part of the government. Which government position has a hustler been given? Wajinga! The only payment the hustlers are enjoying are rising food and fuel prices. But let me give them a some hope: handouts will be brought to them in 2027. In the meantime, be patient hustlers.

    Kun'gu Muigai seems to be a true maverick. He defied common assumptions and "family values" by joining hands with other side. He appears to be true to himself and I like him for that even though I am not a Ruto supporter.
