According to the 20th law of power, only a fool rushes to take sides.
The Ukambani region will play a crucial role in determining the next Kenyan president.
Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka remains the most influential politician from the Kamba nation despite facing a political rebellion.
His word cannot be ignored in the race for power come 2022.
Kalonzo has hinted at contesting for the nation’s top seat.
We cannot rule out the option of Kalonzo accepting to play second fiddle to another candidate during that time.
He has done it before and he could do it again.
Deputy President William Ruto will be in for a rude shock if Kalonzo joins forces with President Uhuru Kenyatta to back someone else so that he is rewarded with a powerful government post after the election.
The second in command will not have a strong force to enable him win hearts of the Kamba community.
Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua could be Ruto’s only option in case Kalonzo speaks a different tune.
A junk of the Kamba vote will go into the basket of the candidate Kalonzo will endorse for the post.
Take it or leave it, Ruto desperately needs Kalonzo in his camp to beat any candidate if the latter is not on the ballot.
