[All pics by Willis Awandu/Standard]Politics is a comedy of errors in the pursuit of, capturing and retention of power. This explains why every television station in Kenya has a weekend slot featuring politicians and their sidekicks making asses of themselves. And it came to pass that some toughies purporting to act in the interests of Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko happened at the Boulevard Hotel, Nairobi, on Monday. Suited up and ready to urge Nairobians to exercise the patience of a sacrificial lamb and support the governor, Mr Muriuki almost jumped out of his skin when six toughies burst into the scene. Text the word 'NEWS' to 22840And nasty it was...As it turned out, Mr Muriuki’s statement was actually in support of the governor raising the question as to whether they were acting at the behest of City Hall or Mr Muriuki’s enemies.
