Uhuru must share power before Kenya is engulfed by a civil war... The irate youths attempted at lynching Uhuru, and the situation is so bad that he now moves in an armored cage ... They high jacked his armored car and dropped it in Uganda... The larger question is why they preferred to show Uganda as the base area for anti Uhuru insurgents... I say insurgents for two main reasons... Unlike these youths who wanted to tear him into pieces, those who seized his car were armed....The seizer of the car was certainly not for economic reasons...No....It was for political reason... Why not drop it in South Sudan or Tanzania or Somalia but Uganda...? Were they assessing the car capabilities..munication systems...and its security capabilities? Why not destroy it after use...? Why make propaganda out of it by abandoning it in a populated ground...? Why Uganda...? The second reason is that Uhuru ruled out al- Shababs hand in insurgent operations in the coastal areas.... There was an attempt to link that insurgency to Raila albeit with minimal success... Why the insurgents have concentrated on the Coastal areas is for another day... The death of Saitoti could be a pointer in the change of strategy... The reign in Kenya is no longer a tribal issue...No...Its a family affair...The family is co-opting the military...and is deeply getting rooted in the military... The Kenyan military is getting more visible in Kenyan politics...and Uhuru being the first civil leader to done military fatigue on an official function... All the leaders in the region that have donned military uniform have had to face and contend with armed insurgency... That there are signs of violence, Kenya can only survive a civil war via concrete dialogue that must sustain the element of power sharing....
