A POLITICIAN FROM a Western county is in trouble after his
political gamble backfired. Once praised for generosity, he has been rapidly
losing ground as supporters drift back to rival camps, claiming the man
has supposedly become
stingy. The politician had bankrolled several community events in some informal
settlements expecting to earn loyalty, but when he tightened the purse strings,
the very people who once cheered him turned against him. Some even accuse him
of “forgetting those who built his name” and are now openly shifting
allegiance.

JUST WHERE DID a vocal politician from Mt Kenya suddenly vanish
to? The man who had earlier been touted to join Cabinet but missed out has
completely gone underground, raising speculations on his whereabouts and what
he is up to. He has avoided all political events in his region and does not
even want to associate himself with any camp. Is it a matter of being
disappointed after missing the appointment or retreating to strategise? Maybe.
There are also whispers that the man is apparently running broke, hence the decision he has taken to
lie low.

political camps but also sent tongues wagging. Will the duo reconcile for
survival, or is this the beginning of a bitter political divorce?
