Thirdway Alliance party leader Ekuru Aukot now says the bipartisan talks between President William Ruto and Raila Odinga will fail.

In a tweet commenting on the State of affairs in Kenya, Aukot said Kenya's parliament is not in a better position to solve the matters at hand.

He described the talks as fake and a process that will likely not bear any fruits.

"The fake "bi-partisan" dialogue proposed by the two conniving political liars on both sides in order to "address the national crisis" can not be done in Parliament because Parliament is simply dead and MPs have been mortgaged.,” Aukot tweeted.

Aukot said Kenyans must rethink the best path to follow ahead of the 2027 election as bi-partisan talks won't bring a lasting solution.

"This calls for a very broad-based national dialogue to find lasting solutions. Parliament can not do it. Kenyans should seriously consider going back to factory settings when voting in 2027."


He warned that if Kenya makes the same mistake year in and year out, things will never change for the better.

"For the avoidance of doubt, the last 20 years saw the same faces changing political parties like chameleons l to be in power. Albert Einstein defined this as "insanity" for we elect the same people all the time and expect different results. We are doomed if we don't change," he said.

Aukot at the same time expressed concern over the state of affairs in the country saying they are worrying.


"The daily news on Kenya is troubling. Now the embassy staff abroad are unable to pay rent and are forced to vacate their accommodation in some countries,” he said.

"State officers/civil servants take 30 to 40 years to gain technical expertise and experience to run public/state duties. They are not getting their salaries,” he said.

President William Ruto while reacting to the salary delays said he will not borrow manny to foot such expenses.
