A society that exists mainly in ‘your figment of imagination.’ A world that does not exist, especially (not) in Kenya. Finer and greater minds have tangled with the political class, to later regret that they could have been so naïve. This fable censures bad leadership in what is basically a socialist society. His own country, Britain, had descended into an oppressive class society. That is to say a society governed by an acquisitive thieving class.

The third-term lawmaker has taken a middle ground in the raging politics that threatens to tear Kenya Kwanza and Mt Kenya apart, ending its decades-hold of political supremacy. But other observers hold that it is not easy to get a replacement for the vote-rich Mt Kenya bloc. “You cannot replace Mt Kenya vote with Nyanza where the turnout is averagely 58 per cent,” Prof Gitile Naituli said. He argued that Gachagua’s constant claims that he moved the Mt Kenya needle in favour of Ruto and talk of Mt Kenya shareholding in the Kenya Kwanza administration was no more than blackmail and high-octane arrogance. The grand question, pundits say, is; will the real Mt Kenya leader or Deputy President stand up?

The High Court in Nyeri has barred the reopening of the boarding facilities at Hillside Endarasha Academy after two non-governmental organisations filed a lawsuit, accusing the school management of endangering the safety of its learners. The institution has been closed since September 5 following a dormitory fire that claimed the lives of 21 boys. The lawsuit, filed on October 7, claims that the respondents hurried the reopening of the school without ensuring that necessary safety measures were in place for the students. They argued that the school management failed to meet the prescribed safety standards for both the school structures and the learning environment. The petition also pointed out that the actions of the respondents violated the children’s constitutional right to quality basic education.
