Maitû,
Is true. Raila does have (or should we say had) his own private security detail. He also has a spy network. Why do you think the dude is so in touch with the
mwananchi on the ground?
Raila and Ruto pay for information (which I think is pretty bright of them seeing how they ran circles round PNU) and publicity. Have you paused to wonder why Ruto and RAO get so much airtime on the news? In case you didn't know, a section of the TV networks depend on
paps (freelance photo/video operatives) for their content. RAO and Ruto have these
jamaas eating out of their hands. Kalooser, being the meanie that he is, gives
nada and gets
nada.
As for the network of spies, that's a preserve of every politician, in or out of government. The gutter press was borne of these spy networks that politicians convienently used to bring to light unsavoury details about their opponents' secret lifestyles. Kenyans discovered that KShs. 800,000 can help quite a bit when it comes to flouting the Ten Commandments.
In short, Maitû, can you please give us something a little more newsworthy?
