If this is what it means to win an election in Africa, it is no wonder elections are a life and death matter to some. How not when those who win and form government make it a winner-take-it-all and loser-take nothing-at-all affair?
As dismaying as this is, it seems to be the guiding dictum of the Jubilee administration if the ethnic makeup of the government is anything to go by. One does not need to cast more than a cursory glance at the government to notice that it is heavily skewed towards members of the two topdogs’ communities.
Indeed, CNYAKUNDI.COM has privileged information to the effect that tribalism in Jubilee administration will form the third prong in Raila Odinga’s assault on the government as he engages heavier gears towards the crucial last year of Uhuru Kenyatta’s first term.
According to our moles embedded deep in Raila’s innermost of inner circles, the former prime minister has a list of civil servants he will soon unleash to illustrate to Kenyans that Uhuru and his deputy William Ruto are allegedly aiding the cancer of tribalism.
According to the Raila dossier that this newspaper saw, the Kikuyu community boasts 33,783 of government jobs representing 23.4pc of the total, while the Kalenjins, the third most populous have 23,649 or 16.3pc. The Kikuyu and the Kalenjin communities combined hold 39.7pc of state jobs leaving the other 4o communities with only 60.3pc share.
The document further reveals that the Luo, the fourth largest group have 18,383 or 12.7pc, the Luhyas, the second most populous control 18,106 which is 12.5pc, Kamba 14,707 which is 10.2pc and Kisii 10,786 or 7.5pc.
The domination of the Kikuyu and Kalenjin tribes is in many quarters attributed to current and former presidents who openly favored their people in state appointments.
