PNU overstakes ODM in Parliament

1. PNU has finally overtaken ODM. The latest figures show that PNU loose coalition has 104 seats while ODM has 103 seats in parliament.It looks like PNu has gained the most from the deaths of ODM legislators (however, ODM is set to get more seats after by-elections to replace the two minsters who died this week.

2. The question is - how good is their numerical superiority puting in mind that Ukambani MP's will vote for ODM and not forgetting the fact that both PNU and ODM are devided internally due to a push for grand opposition?

3. I think our politics is just about to take a new dimension that will relagate tribalism to obscurity.hata hivyo, I am tired with Kenyan politics that always favors the political elite while taking advantage of the common man (from all tribes)! When are we going to grow up?

4. I no longer care who wins anywhere in Kenya. They are all the same. No single Kenyan deserves to sie for any single party, politician or tribe. It would be better if things turn the other way round - like politicians, parties and tribalism die for Kenyans to have a better life (healthcare, standards of living, life expectancy etc)

5. Hata siasa zetu zimecha.fu.ka kabisa - siasa mbaya, maisha mbaya (just quoting the professor of Kenyan politics).Hey guys, it is time we rise above our tribal and political differences and nurture a better country for the good of our children. Trust me - we do not want to go the Somalian way!

6. We will have to learn very fast in order to move forward efficiently - or we will continue to be short sighted, blinded by ethnic affiliations and political miracles while going around in circles at full speed.Jameni, Kenyans - amkeni. hey, I think we might need completely new set of leadership - untainted by the current political stain.

Please feel free to drop your comments on how we can improve our country and save it from self-desctrive path it is currently on.
