So today, on Page 13 of the Nation, the political soap opera has taken a turn straight out of a Kenyan version of Tom and Jerry. Only difference is—both Tom and Jerry are not chasing each other around a kitchen, they’re chasing relevance in a bread-based government where some people are getting slices, others are smelling crumbs.
Tom, the elder brother with ambitions bigger than a wheelbarrow factory, received a high-voltage call from The Big Man himself. Not a polite “hello”, but one of those calls that makes your ears sweat.
He was warned in no uncertain terms:
“We can smell your intentions all the way from State House. Don’t try to elope with our bride (aka the electorate), we know you’re secretly cooking a party on the side. Choose your side now, or we’ll show you bad things!”
Tom was left shaken like a leaf in Nyandarua wind.
He’s now trying to act loyal, even though his heart is already packing bags and sending party invites.
Meanwhile, Jerry, his younger political brother—the one who believes health is his birthright—has decided enough is enough!
He’s spoiling for a fight. According to Jerry:
“There’s no way I’ll let them take my health docket. After all, my votes were the magic ingredient that made this bread rise. Now that there’s a new political partner warming the sheets, they’re treating us like goats ready for slaughter!”
So now, we have a situation where:
✔️ Tom is pretending to be loyal but buying party balloons in secret,
✔️ Jerry is sharpening his claws, ready to scratch whoever touches his hospital plans,
✔️ And the Big Man is holding the bread knife, watching all this drama unfold with a cup of tea.
Buana in Kenya you can’t rest. I need someone who has not used their 1k we share as we read the drama.
