JUST WHY IS a loud opposition MP, who likes to comment on everything, reportedly overexcited about the broad-based government formed by President William Ruto? The controversial lawmaker does not let a day pass without heaping praise on the administration and displaying sycophancy to top politicos he considers heroes. His colleagues say he is taking it over the top and should stop. What’s intriguing is that he is not putting as much effort in helping his constituents on the ground sort basic daily problems. Maybe the man is working hard with an eye on the ruling party ticket for the next election?

STILL ON OPPOSITION politics, what has become of a woman representative from a popular area? The politician has become morose and easily irritable lately. Her sharp tongue berates voters. When she is not publicly excoriating them for demanding better services, she chides them as ungrateful and lazy slobs. Her aides and ground mobilisers who lifted her to victory last time murmur that it appears the lawmaker has given up on her re-election chances.

A SECTION OF lawmakers from a certain region are at a crossroads. They have been closely monitoring the court proceedings on Rigathi Gachagua’s impeachment cases, hoping to get political direction one way or the other. Since they voted for the impeachment motion, they are yet to make moves either to reconcile with Gachagua and join his camp given the hostile ground or join nominee DP Kithure Kindiki. On Tuesday, they were overheard saying the court battle seemed to be nearing an end and they would reach a decision to chart their political life.

A FORMER MP who had become a regular at Rigathi Gachagua’s office is now trying to distance himself from the impeached DP. Why? He believes all roads are closed for the ‘Truthful Man’. The man has told people near him he will start his own public image rehabilitation campaign, and possibly work his way back to the new power centre in the region to help him survive.
