Kibaki creating ten orligarchs and a million paupers

Just read Martha Karua's rants justifying Kibaki's refusal to consult widely on the appointment of the ECK commissioners. It reeks of despicable arrogance. She is clearly inebriated with power. I have argued elsewhere that for a long time Karua was Kibaki's best kept secret, the only good pie in a storehouse going bad. Today, she's become a footsoldier of the admin whose only allegience is to power. Oh, and the other day Prof. Kibwana, one of the worst things that ever happened to academia, talked about Kibaki's economic miracle! How a professor can be so vain beats me. This so called economic growth is creating orligarchs and millions of paupers. What we are seeing is the annihilation of the middle class who are perhaps the only ones able to keep political power in check. This mirage, now the so-called economic miracle sounds more and more like a well orchestrated attempt by the political elite to keep the restless population quiet. In the post colony, you simply have to populate the public space with such lies. Eventually they take the form of a fetish. The only consolation however is that they dont last forever. History tells us it won't last long. As for Karua, well, I'm cringing at the fact that I have in fact dignified her rantings with this.
