Politics, intrigues of the handshake In Kenya

Image
  The handshake intrigues deepened yesterday as a planned joint consultative meeting aborted.   Intrigues have emerged pitting associates of President Uhuru Kenyatta and ODM’s Raila Odinga, questioning the parties’ commitment to the Handshake and its nine-point agenda. Senate Minority Leader Mutula Kilonzo Jnr yesterday told The Standard that there was no follow-up on the resolutions of February 24 that set today’s third anniversary of the Handshake to be a joint consultative meeting between MPs and county leaders on the BBI process. ‘’The party leaders’ meeting failed to co-opt the parliamentary leadership and that of the counties and there was no follow-up to firm up this date. From where we sit there is no meeting. We’ve not discussed it in the House and no one has received formal invite and as a result, senators have travelled out of town,” said Kilonzo Jnr, the Wiper Party vice-chair.

In this regard, the Head of State directed the police to ensure the directive is strictly effected, without any regard to one’s status in society. “All forms of political gatherings are hereby prohibited for a period of 30 days starting midnight today. This should be followed regardless of the political or social standing,” he said. In the new measures announced on Friday, President Kenyatta also extended the daily 10pm-4am curfew by a further 60 days, adding that all bars and social joints shall also be closed by 9pm.
