So after several months of complaining and undermining the appointing authority, Martha Karua has finally resigned from Costtitutional affairs ministry...followed closely by her right hand man Hon Munagatana...so what is the big deal. How cares what the lady from the flower party is up to?
My hypothesis is that everyone cares. From her cabinet colleagues to the person on the street. Martha Karua stands taller than most of her peers. Her daring walkout from the cabinet epitomises her undying zeal to see true reforms in the country. A few years back when KANU was baba na mama (father and mother), Karua walked out of former President Moi's function when KANU hawks made advances on her to decamp to their party. That send a clear message across the political spectrum that this was a lady to watch in the coming days.
So what does Karua's departure mean to the fledging coalition whose leadership, as described by the NCCK, is moribund and ineffective?
