President Uhuru Kenyatta gives a speech at Jomo Kenyatta International Stadium in Kisumu County during Madaraka Day celebrations in Kisumu on June 1, 2021.
What was hailed as the most successful national ceremony is slowly turning into an embarrassing calamity.
The the joy witnessed in Kisumu on Madaraka Day is slowly turning into a horrifying nightmare.
It’s now emerging that the President of Burundi was not the only guest at the Madaraka Day celebrations in Kisumu last week. Reliable sources indicate Covid-19 joined other politicians who were jealous of the projects being launched in the lakeside region, sneaked into the stadium, interacted with the crowds, and is now holding residents by the windpipe.
What was hailed as the most successful national ceremony is slowly turning into an embarrassing calamity for those who derive their pay from advising the President on the pandemic. For three days in a row, they knowingly let the President walk into Covid-19 red zones hoping the residential Guard would shoot the virus if it attempted to approach the dais.
