[kictanet] Kibaki, Raila meddling stalls CCK actions

Wed Aug 29 16:19:23 EAT 2012

Edith,

I am not an advocate for rebellion for the sake of it. In my experience
(hopelessly little compared to the rest of the listers) is that very little
changes.

You would have had the PS not follow the directives in the letter because
he doesn't like them? Why do we assume the presidents directives are not
informed and that Dr.Ndemo is smarter or more effective at making decisions?

The independence of the CCK is very important but I believe the president
is better informed by the NSIS and other bodies than the CCK and the
ministry of information.

But then again I suppose this is an opportune time to test our new law
courts?
