One wonders where the president derives the confidence from when he talks about being the President for 5 more years. All the signs indicate that his tenancy at State House, will soon come to an end. Is mischief afoot?

The People of The Republic of Kenya hereinafter referrred to as "The Landlords hereby notify Emilio and Lucy Kibaki hereinafter referred to as "The Tenants",
that your tenancy of the following premises, to wit: The property at
L.R No........... along State House Road, Nairobi, hereinafter referred
to as "State House", together with all buildings, sheds,
closets, out-buildings, garages and other structures used in connection
with said premises, will terminate on 31st December, 2007 following
the general elections, and you are now hereby required to surrender
possession of said premises to the undersigned or Orange Democratic
Movement hereinafter referred to as "The New Tenants" on that day.
Dated; this 19th day of October, 2007.
THE LANDLORDS

Your writer reliably learned, before going to press, that the President has every intention to contest this notice by any means necessary. This
attitude, reinforced by statements attributed to the previous tenant of
the same property- President Moi- to the effect that "the New Tenants"
should be prepared to face harsh realities within the next two weeks
because "Watakutana na maisha ya ukweli", warns against complacency. The new tenants must now return to the drawing board, look through their plans and scrutinize the leasehold articles for any possible tricks that could see The Tenants illegitimately try to extend their stay.
Although your writer speaks from a distant land, his soul and his spirit are right in Langata
where he grew up and from where he attended the University of Nairobi. It is at the university that he was afforded the opportunity to learn and understand the workings of the
treacherous Professor of Politics, Daniel, who is now an advisor to the The
Tenants.

The Property

Consequently, your writer's advice is not as farfetched as his distance suggests. Suffice to say, he has all the confidence that "The New Tenants" are not unaware of what he is alluding to. However,
it is common knowledge that it is human to err and overlook even the
most obvious and simple details. The risk of this is especially heightened in tumultous times like these, time when we overthrow the old order and usher in a new dispensation- the freedom we have thirsted for these 40 years.
Your writer surmises that tenant Emilio's confidence is not without reason. It emanates from a plan he and his inner circle have hatched
and are about to unleash on the Landlords and their new Tenants in the
next few weeks. The script reads as follows,
· As ODM goes into its own nominations, some fall-out is expected. This will be overplayed by all media in the hands of Emilio's group.
· Steadman
Polls by design start showing some rise in Kibaki's popularity with the
explanation that PNU has embarked on serious campaigns and that the
fall out after ODM nominations is hurting Raila/ODM.
· Bi-weekly Steadman polls show a close race almost too close to call
· Provincial Administration continues to campaign for Kibaki/PNU using government resources.
· ECK
completely overhauled, with Kibaki's men at the helm starts preparation
for an election "almost too close to call", and the announcement of
eventual winner.
· In the meantime huge sums of money (tax-payers and stolen) are exchanging hands.
· The
Landlords, The New Tenants (and foreign diplomats as witness) hold a press
conference to announce a rigging plot by The Tenants. The Landlord's
intention to evict should The Tenant refuse to vacate the premises is published.
· Election Day.
*Italics added.
Now this is the scenario your writer requests his brothers The New Tenants in the Pentagon to ready themselves for. Extensive and detailed consultations with the The Landlords are most crucial to prepare them for filing the eviction papers come 31st December,2007.
No malice is intended againt The Tenants. The desire for their ejection is inspired by their refusal to pay their dues for five years and their continued engagement in
activities not in the Landlords' interest. These activities also violate the spirit and the terms of the the
lease agreement that Mwai Kibaki, representing The Tenants swore on oath to up-hold. It is also most vexing indeed, that The Tenants now propose to use funds gained illegally from abusing the property to service their arrears and extend their tenancy. Out with them.

Kivuitu it seems, is a wily old gun. Yesterday's notice to political parties has now been withdrawn. The announcement about the December date may be a similar antic. Now Kenyans cannot blame him, for he does not want Kenyans to vote in January. Not with schools in session!! Imagine the inconvenience of voting while schools are in session. The man will soon be out of a job.
