A day before, the communication channels of the associations going by the acronym Nasa had gone into overdrive promising Kenyans a “major” announcement on the material day. Then there was the “official” welcome of Bomet Governor Isaac Ruto to the Nasa Principals Club and the subsequent formation of a pentagon. Only two months ago, Ruto said: “The claims that I will join Nasa are incorrect.” Just a few years ago, Isaac Ruto and Raila Odinga were sworn enemies, constantly at odds. Moreover, Ruto and Odinga share more than a love of squabbling parties, with each having a very tawdry past on the corruption front. Upon its formation, on January 11, Nasa promised to be bigger and better than its predecessors.
