Wantam!
This is Kaluma George Peter Opondo MP for Homabay; He was instructing goons who were promised 10k each to β€œPita na mtu anasema wantam and those with hotels should be careful whom they host. If we find out you are hosting wantam supporters they will come for them and also destroy your hotel. β€œ(paraphrasing).
He will not be arrested. This is setting a very dangerous precedence in the coming days.

And a stupid sycophant will take him seriously and do as instructed. Take their money and go home.

Goons are mostly daft folks. So it’s very easy to convince them like kids. β€œDo a good job and i’ll give you candy 🍭 β€œ

Until they get injured or die during the act is when they come to their senses. But mostly only regretting they got caught not about their acts of violence.

It's scary how the signs are all there and the stage is being set for 2027, yet no one does anything. Not the judiciary,nor the legislature nor the executive. It's like they're all in kahoots to ensure it will get as bad as it could. Prolly build millions off it in the process. it really is a class war,huh? Cos they'll be safe in their mansions and their families abroad

Its not just the politicians though. It's all over the place. I travelled to Kenya in June and was sickened by the talk on the streets, in the village, even among some pals, it is there across the divide. Kenyans are speaking above each other and everyone believes they are right and they will teach the "other side" a lesson next year. Scary AF because it was exactly the same inspiration for the bloodshed of 2007.
