Are the Kenyatta’s Out to Pay a Political Debt to the Odingas?

The notion that renewed closeness between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Nasa leader Raila Odinga is a plot by the Kenyattas to pay a political debt to the Odingas or prepare the country for an Odinga presidency wrong.

Their association is informed by the recognition that their continuous rivalry has caused great trouble and put their personal and family interests at stake. Therefore, if they don’t deal with the issues that divide them, even their wealth will go up in smoke.

They are brought together by a common objective to reduce rivalry and secure the social, political and economic achievements they have made for their families and friends since independence, and for the future.

It’s more reasonable for them to work together, as constant fights put their wealth at risk. They either stay together, or burn separately. This was seen in the 2012 and 2017 elections.

This rivalry has never been healthy for investments and has hurt the massive massive wealth of both families.

It might not be true with this handshake Raila wants to be President with Kenyatta’s support. The two gentlemen want to determine who becomes the President. They want to tower above everybody else and say this handshake, contrary to what people were saying, was not done for themselves.
