TRANSPARENT WAY FOR REAL POWER SHARING BETWEEN ODM AND PNU

The following steps will add value to real power sharing between ODM and PNU

President Kibaki should disband the 17 ministers he constituted recently.

President Kibaki and PM Raila to list the available ministries let say 34 or less. In front of the ODM/PNU negotiators, international communities and the media, President Kibaki selects one ministry from the list then PM Raila selects a ministry as well. Again President Kibaki selects a ministry followed by PM Raila. This process is repeated until the list of ministries is exhausted. Final list is compiled immediately from both President Kibaki’s and PM Raila’s selections.

The final list is read to the public right away.

The procrastination by HE Mwai Kibaki is ill advised.

He is playing politics with the life of Kenyans, some of whom are still holed up in the IDP camps. Some of whom are still grieving the deaths of their beloved.

The law that was making it difficult for him to share power has since been passed by parliament, and the post of the PM is now by law established. What then makes it difficult to name Raila Odinga as the Prime Minister, have him sworn in at Uhuru Park, and let Kenyans move on into the difficult job ahead?

In Pakistan where we had a similarly unpopular leader, Musharaf has had the PM sworn in with speed despite their being sworn enemies. To them, Pakistan is more important than political games.

And in this, Musharaf has scored despite his being a dictator.

HE Mwai Kibaki must be a wise man. If he is, he must name the PM officially by tomorrow and have this thing done away with. Otherwise, he will be behaving like the proverbial warthog, who easily forgets.

We do not want to revisit the events of the post election period. We saw enough of our brothers and sisters butchered, and we have enough people displaced either from their homes, or from their residential areas.

If this is what the president and his PNU colleagues want, then they better hive off Central Province and close it to all other Kenyans, and we shall forever live in peace as neighbouring states.
