Few weeks ago, Kenyans from all walks of life dismissed the alliance between Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and Eldoret North MP William Ruto calling them tribalistic and opportunistic leaders.
On Sunday, Prime Minister Raila Odinga who is a Luo community kingpin and Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka, a Kamba kingpin will sign a pre-election deal ahead of the forthcoming general election.
Well, the unity between Uhuru Kenyatta, a Kikuyu king pin and William Ruto a Kalenjin kingpin has been tribalised especially here in diaspora.But my big question is; Is Raila - Kalonzo alliance tribal or is just Uhuru and Ruto who are tribal?
Where are Kenyans who think positively without taking sides? Where are the civil society groups who dismissed Uhuru-Ruto alliance? I need answers please!!

well the pact between Raila and Kalonzo has not materialised yet and we've not seen them campaigne together to listed to their speeches.
Uhuru and Ruto's alliance have spoken well loud and clear infront of the nation tribalistic. we've heard from before Uhuru mentioning that he will do all it takes to makesure Raila doesn't sail to statehouse, why not other presidential aspirants? we recently heard Ruto telling his Kalenjin elders that his URP party is forming alliance with Uhuru's TNA simply because Kikuyu comunity is backing his bid and the community has the greatest voting bloc in the country that would see their alliance sail through. he then lamented that joining any other party apart from TNA would be a gross miscaculation for him and his community.
