Image
Azimio leader Raila Odinga adamantly defies IG Koome's orders against the planned demonstrations. Speaking at Jesus Teaching Ministry in Embakasi he said their protests will go on regardless of the police orders. "You are saying you are going to arrest everyone. I am ready for you. Koome, do not send your officers to me, come face me yourself," Said the opposition leader.  The protests started last Monday where rioters were spotted maiming and destroying several businesses among them Muhindi Mweusi Supermarket in Tassia, Embakasi East Constituency.

Image
The tough spoken IG Koome challenged Azimio politicians to use other channels to address their political disputes instead of trying to compromise security in the country.

Why are you afraid of me, you are dealing with my junior. Deal with me. I am ready. I am the commander of the National Police Service. The buck stops with me,"-he said  He also highlighted on a case where rioters invaded an government that was organized by the Communication Authority of Kenya in Kisumu last week.  "The police will protect lives and property of all Kenyans and anyone...

Luck or Its Time to Call It Off; The Political Journey Jane Putunoi

Image
Now imagine a female leader from a pastoral community who had managed to fight her way into a rare territory highly dominated by indomitable men.  Jane Putunoi is a household name in the terrains of Laikipia County and beyond. She deputized Ndiritu Muriithi back in 2013 when he was vying for governor via the ANC Party. Upon failing to clinch the seat she was absorbed into the County Government of Laikipia as CECM where she served diligently up to 2017. She was in the fore front in the re-election campaigns defending her boss Joshua Irungu but unfortunately they lost the race which went up to the supreme court.  In this case her previous boss Ndiritu Muriithi won. This left Jane Putunoi in the political cold for 5 years when she came back again to vie for the Senatorial seat through UDA Party. Her energy in the campaigns was on another level. The incumbent John Kinyua realized he could not face her via the UDA Party nominations at all. He therefore came up with a pl...
