President Uhuru Kenyatta, in a bid to clean his Augean stables, has fired one CS and transferred another. The opposition’s role is to provide the checks and balances needed to keep the Government on the straight and narrow.

It has prompted an unhealthy race of factions within the Jubilee administration to “expose” each other’s scandals or for each to have the other over a barrel.
