Presidency a very lonely abode. There comes a moment when one should listen to oneself only &the nation. Moi 1991 in Kasaran, repealed 2A.

Whereas Mr Odinga maintains that no election will go on on October 26 and even went ahead to withdraw his candidature, the president on the other hand has stuck to his guns that the polls will have to proceed as directed by the Supreme Court.
