Faced with the biggest crisis in his last term as President, Uhuru Kenyatta has decided to shield himself from possible backlash, by distancing himself from gaffe-prone Henry Rotich and making himself look good.
Robinson Njeru Githae has now been recalled as ambassador to the U.S.to replace Henry Rotich as CS Finance. Bitter rivalry within the kitchen cabinet, and cry over betrayal.
The recall order was exclusively revealed to CNyakundi.com today, as part of changes being effected in light of the mounting pressure for Uhuru to resign.
Kenyans have started mounting banners around the city of Nairobi portraying Uhuru and Ruto as being the face of corruption in what is one of the boldest moves yet.
The President is under too much pressure to act on corruption, otherwise the country becomes unmanageable. The Kalenjin side of Government claim that they were emboldened to go on a mass looting spree once they discovered that President Kenyatta had embezzled the entire Eurobond lumpsum, while at the same time touting the family-owned Northlands Estate to rival Tatu City.
The project has since been halted.
While the Kalenjins don't deny that they are inherently corrupt, their only problem is the selective approach used to antagonize them. They have no problem with being pursued, only if members of the Kenyatta family are also in the docks with them.
Essentially, Kalenjins have held Uhuru by his balls.
Rotich was grilled for two days, but after consulting his lawyer Katwa Kigen, he requested to go back the 3rd day at night to save his skin. He's pleading to reveal everything, and maybe turn to be state witness. He's not willing to die for Ruto.
Meanwhile, his crimes carry a life sentence, and indeed he'll be arrested, charged and locked up as a the poster-child of the fight against corruption. Lots of property are set to be recovered.
Even former National Olympics Committee of Kenya (NOCK) Chairman Kipchoge Keino has turned into state witness in the case against among others, former Sports CS Hassan Wario in the case involving the Olympics embezzlement.
Henry Rotich, a whole Cabinet Secretary in the Ministry of Finance was found to have registered HEKIRO, a company which was awarded a Dam tender in the middle of one of the country's biggest scandals in recent years. The initials of the company depict his name Henry Kiprono Rotich.
Suspects are fearing to deposit money in the banks, like Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen who was found with more than Kshs. 20 million in cash under the mattress in his house.
The plot by the Kalenjin wing to counter Jomo Kenyatta International Airport's acquisition by the Kenyatta family through NIC and CBA has is in high gear. Members of the Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee in a press conference last Thursday vowed to ensure the unholy union between Kenya Airways and Kenya Airport's Authority won't happen out of public interest. They know that their personal political careers are at stake should posterity ink them as having rubberstamped the deal.
Njeru Githae was the Minister of Finance in the Kibaki years of prosperity but was demoted to Ambassador by members of Uhuru's kitchen cabinet who believed that he is incorruptible and couldn't "eat" with them.
During his tenure, Kibaki was able to steer Kenya to greater heights of prosperity unlike now that Uhuru has turned Kenya into another shit-hole country like Congo.
Sit back and see how things unfold.
