IS THERE INTENSE shadow diplomacy to knock off an
idea that has been doing rounds in social media about the position of a top
gun? We are told since the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, a
power man whose seat has become the subject of public speculation is not taking
the rumours lightly. He is said to be sending emissaries to an influential man
to check his pulse on the matter. His emissaries report the man is keen to
check if any of his past fights with the influential figure were still in his
mind. With rumours swirling about his possible removal, settling past accounts
may be a shrewd strategy.

STILL ON SHADOWY dealings, we are told lobbying for
the Interior CS slot has hit blistering levels. Politicians and well-connected
people from across the isle are sparing no effort to please the appointing
authority and his handlers. Others are working hard to be in the good books of
close family and associates. One of the interested persons, who holds a plum
position in the National Assembly, reportedly spends a good portion of his day
at the home of a top politico and is lavishing the top man’s wife with gifts.

IT IS A wild turn of fortunes for an arrogant lawyer
who had dismissed the current leadership of their professional entity as
clueless folks who would not succeed. The man seems to have had a Damascus
moment, and is now only showering praises on the lot. We are told the advocate
has been on the neck of the lobby to assign him briefs to make appearances in
any high profile case. They say change, including of one’s arrogant standpoint,
is inevitable.

A SECOND-TERM MP known for his cranky political stand cannot hide his joy after regaining his social media account. As if the temporary ban did not scare him, he has vowed to maintain the tempo as “this is the only way I can remain relevant”. At a luncheon inside Parliament recently, the vocal politico, who recently switched his allegiance to a powerful man, vowed to employ communication experts to manage the account for him. We are told he is eyeing a powerful national post in future.
