The family of an MP from Nyanza is worried that the man's alcoholic habits have reached the red zone and could ruin his career well before the August 2022 general election. The man, the family fears, could fall into depression following his drinking habits. However, what has baffled many is what is drawing the brilliant chap into liquor. In circles of Parliament (pictured), waheshimiwa have been heard saying depression is real. The family now wants his colleagues to intervene and reach out to his party leader for advice. However, some of his opponents say this could just be a family tactic to blackmail his party.

A former influential politician who is fighting to get his job back against difficult obstacles is in a dilemma. Why? The man’s family believes he will not be cleared to contest for a political office, yet he has already thrown his hat into the ring. Sources whisper to Corridors that the family believes the man is being misled by his lawyers and is heavily spun. The politico has been selling some of his assets to get a big war chest necessary for the big race. Those in the know say he has been challenged by some of his close associates to seek a court interpretation if he will be cleared to run. The fear is that the man is committing financial suicide for a political mission impossible.

A senior politician from Mt Kenya has realised that he could have made ill-uncalculated political moves. The man is said to be regretting this decision that has left him isolated. In recent times, the politico has been trying to quietly switch camps. All the bigwigs who were supporting him left him after he made the “political blunders”. In fact, another bigger group that he has been trying to assemble has also disintegrated and some members are likely to make their allegiance known. The politician has since gone slow on his activities.
