Mwai and Lucy Kibaki share a light moment at a past event in Nairobi. Of course, it is difficult for a journalist to tell the story of Mr Kibaki without mentioning the First Lady, Mama Lucy Kibaki. As many know by now, Mr Kibaki was as alert or as aloof as he wanted those around him to believe. You will nonetheless be forgiven if you bought the line that Mr Kibaki was a fence-sitter and coward (General Kiguoya). I am sure even the Raila Odinga team of 2002 were convinced that Mr Kibaki was a passing cloud.
