If there is a politician in Kenya who is unpredictable in his unpredictability, that man would be none other than the man who hails from Tseikuru, Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka.
It is really difficult for any pundit to lay a claim to the knowledge of what is in Kalonzo's heart. They have instead chosen to characterize him as a watermelon- the famous fruit which is green outwardly, but red inside!
Immediately after the 26th October 2017 poll, Kalonzo mysteriously vanished from the political arena prompting wild speculation.
Even the apparently genuine reason that he is taking care of his wife could not erase the suspicion of his critics.
There are those who believe that Kalonzo may be warming his way back to the government to avoid the imminent five-year cold.
Kalonzo has however dismissed this view in the past saying that they are merely Jubilee propaganda to scuttle its opponents.
Yet, if you look at it keenly, one is left to wonder what Kalonzo's future is. What is Kalonzo's fate considering Odinga's new move that aims at making him relevant for the next five years at the expense of Kalonzo?
Simply put, one is bound to ask: Is Kalonzo's political egg already cooked in the hot geysers of Kenyan politics?
I see a man who is a victim of his own gullibility.
My guess is as good as yours; Kalonzo should look for the role of senior elder in the village of Tseikuru where he will help in arbitrating petty civil cases and marriage disputes.
