The recent wave of unintelligent lies masquerading as analysis is not politics it is sheer panic and fear.When leaders clinging to recycled ideas realize they cannot match energy, connection, or credibility, debate is abandoned, replaced by gossip. That is exactly what we are witnessing. The desperation is so obvious it would be laughable if it were not so insulting to the intelligence of the people.What truly terrifies the two old geezers from Kitui Central is not competition; it is the prospect of being decisively trounced by a mere 40-year-old lady whose influence has grown quietly, organically, and without seeking validation from political gatekeepers. For those who built careers on noise, entitlement, and seniority, this kind of unstoppable momentum is frightening.Meanwhile, real work continues on the ground. Over 1,000 women’s groups have no time for their jealous gibberish. While some waste energy manufacturing lies, others are building trust,village by village, ward by ward. Come 2027, the result will be crushing,the gnashing of teeth of those sent to political oblivion will be thunderous. That is the unmistakable difference between relevance and fear.Kitui politics has entered an uncomfortable reality for the old order,as the movement strengthens, the lies grow weaker. History is clear when propaganda replaces policy, defeat is already written.
