Raila is President Kenyatta's 2022 Surprise Candidate, Senator Orengo Says

Siaya Senator James Orengo says President Kenyatta will throw his weight behind opposition leader Raila Odinga's 2022 presidential bid.
Orengo, the Senate Minority Leader, says Odinga is the 'surprise' presidential candidate Kenyatta talked about a few weeks ago.
“At the end of the day, we’re saying that the leadership of Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Amolo Odinga is going to produce the next President of the Republic of Kenya,” says Orengo.
“I’m glad when President Uhuru Kenyatta was saying he’s going to surprise people in Jubilee as to who is going to be the next President of the Republic of Kenya, he was saying that knowing that (William) Ruto is the Deputy President… and that surprise, according to us, practically and for all reasons, is Raila Amolo Odinga.”
Speaking in Nyeri last month, Kenyatta said he will have a say in 2022 and his candidate of choice will shock many.
Kenyatta said: “They think because Uhuru is going home in 2022, he will not have a word on what will happen. I am telling them when the right time comes, I will have something to say. Some think I have kept quiet because I am not capable of talking politics. I am still a politician. They will be shocked when that time comes, but for now I want to concentrate on delivering my pledges to Kenyans.”
Orengo further says that a referendum will be held before 2022 to address the few grey areas in the current law. “We are going to have a referendum which I think will address the 20% of the Constitution that we had agreed in 2010 that there were areas that needed attention,” Orengo said.

Kenya is a politically cursed nation but we have every opportunity to cleanse and redeem ourselves. VOTE CARRER POLITICIANS OUT! Wouldn’t it be moral to get a chance to vote for someone who has done something meaningful to Kenyans besides running for re-election? Same politicians = Same problems (corruption). We can do it.

Wakenya wote walio nje ya nchi ya Kenya, nawaombeni mtumie teknolojia ya kisasa ili tuamue (decide) ni nani kutoka nje ya Kenya ambaye pia ni Mkenya, atakayekuwa rais mwaka wa 2022.
Ni lazima mkristo Ruto akatazwe kutumia wakati wa serikali, petroli ya serikali kwenda makisani na kuwahonga wakristo kondoo (blind followers) kumpigia kura 2022.
Kenya itakufa kabis kama wakristo na waislamu kondoo watampigia kura mkristo Ruto.
Tuko tayari kuwa na Kenya mpya, viongozi wapya bila wakristo wafuatao:
1. Raila
2. Ruto
3. Kalonzo
4. Wetangula
5. Uhuru
6. Mudavadi
7. Joho
8. Sonko
9. Gideon Arao Toroitich
10 Orengo
Sasa, ni lazima tumchague rais mpya wa Kenya kutoka nje ambaye pia ni Mkenya 2022.
Nawaombeni tafadhali mtumie akili mliyopewa na MWUMBAJI kumchagua rais mpya ambaye ataondoa uchafu wote uliomo katika nchi yetu tukufu ya Kenya.
TEKNOLOJIA YA KISASA ITUMIWE ILI TUMCHAGUE RAIS WA KENYA ASIYE NA UCHAFU WOWOTE. Pia, ni muhimu mkristo Wafula Chebukati aondolewe kazini mara moja. Yeyey ndiye aliyewaruhusu watu wasiofaa kugombea uongozi nchini.

At Independence in 1963, we started with Kenyatta as President and Odinga as vice president. Today,55 years later,Kenyatta and Odinga (the sons) are effectively calling the shots in the country. It's as if we're stuck in time. Meanwhile, our country is going down the drain: Kenya is ranked the 8th poorest country in the world,(ref: Business Insider June 2018) about 47 percent of our population are stagnated below the poverty line, there is water shortage,no adequate national healthcare, health care centers lack drugs and children die of curable diseases and no educational access for all. Corruption reigns Supreme. We can't afford to recycle the same old tired clowns. Uhuru must leave Kenyans free to decide for themselves. As for referendum, Kenyans should point out the sections of the Constitution that needs to be amended or even removed- people should exercise their democracy and sovereign power.

I wish Kenyans would demand true reforms. Shove out these self righteous and imposed leaders and in with the new. That's why we are stuck in a rut, the same old families, long in the tooth with their sense of entitlement and looking down their noses to ordinary folks like us, then have the audacity to demand a pay rise! The cheek of it all!! We need to boot them out and vote the likes of Sakaja, Miguna Miguna, etc...they are current and yes, Miguna is controversial, lakini we need such energy to bring accountability. Period.

Orengo has a short memory. In 2017, Raila publicly stated that he will not be a presidential candidate in 2022. For any one to claim to support Raila, Raila himself must first rescind his 2017 statement.

Ndugu @Njai: Akili niliyopewa na MWUMBAJI hainiruhusu kunywa pombe. Mimi sinywi pombe wala situmii madawa aina yoyote ya kulevya ambayo yanaweza kuharibu zawadi yangu (akili) niliyopewa na MWUMBAJI nilipozaliwa.
Ukisoma tena maoni ya wananchi juu ya mada (topic) hii, utaona wazi ya kwamba Wakenya wamechoka kabisa. Wiki ijayo 12/12/2018, Kenya itaadhimisha (celebrate) miaka 55 baada ya kupata uhuru kutoka kwa wakristo Waingereza.
Usikasirike nikikwambia ya kwamba, Kenya ya 1963 ilikuwa tulivu na pia ilikuwa na usalama kuliko Kenya ya 2018! Kenya ya 1963 ilikuwa safi kuliko Kenya ya 2018 hata ingawa kulikuwa na umaskini wakati huo. Lakini sasa, kwa sababu ya ulafi (greed) mwingi kutokana na wakristo na waislamu wanaoongoza nchi, tamaa yao kubwa imeongeza umaskini kiasi cha asilimia mia - 100%. Ndiyo sababu kubwa ni lazima tupate viongozi wapya ambao watajitolea kuikomboa Kenya kutokana na hali mbaya iliyopo nchini sasa.

@Mkenya Halisi: Nakubaliana na Ndugu @Njai anapokuuliza. "...matusi ni ya nini..."
Nimesema mara nyingi ya kwamba mimi ninatoka katika taifa dogo ambalo linatahiri (circumcise) wanaume. Lakini dunia ya sasa ni ndogo sana. Kwa nini? Binadamu wamekaribiana sana kiwango ambacho ni lazima tutambue (recognize) ya kwamba kuna tofauti nyingi duniani zinazotokana na mila za watu.
Kwa nini wewe Mkenya Halisi unataka kuwa kama wakristo na waislamu ambao wanataka kila mtu achukue dini yao? Kwa nini wewe unataka kulazimisha wanaume wote duniani watahiriwe kama "ciana cia Gikuyu na Mumbi?"
Ndugu Mkenya Halisi Je, wajua:
1. Treni hiyo unayopanda kutoka Nairobi kwenda Mombasa imetengenezwa na Wachina ambao hawatahiriwi!
2. Kiingereza hicho unachosema na kutumia kuandika fikira na mawazo yako kinatokana na Waingereza ambao hawatahiriwi!
3. Pengine unaendesha motokaa ya Kijapani ambayo imetengenezwa na Wajapani ambao hawatahiriwi!
4. Pengine unakula chapati ambayo ilibuniwa na Wahindi kutoka India ambao hawatahiriwi!
Nakuomba tafadhali uwaheshimu watu na kuzitambua mila zao ingawa ni tofauti na zako. Mimi nawachukia wakristo na waislamu kwa sababu wanadharau (despise) dini za watu wengine kama wewe unavyodharau mila za watu wengine.

People do not run for office for themselves only, they run for their lot and so, many of them are in a way true when they say " my people asked me to run" or " I will go back to the people before I decide" The only problem is that we the pedestrians think that we are the "people". No, they mean their families, friends, Business interests, empires, accomplices, sycophants, and the people like them who have equally, and historically wrong the society. A folks song I heard the other day went " be reminded that good things have their owners" and so I guess is Uongozi-it is good and has its owners. So emissary Orengo's claims are not far fetched he knows what he is talking about-tupende tusipende!
