Kisumu residents don’t have any expectation that the new international stadium will make the grade to host the national secondary school ball games.
The people of Kisumu don’t know where they shall hide their faces on the day of the handover.
On Tuesday, President Uhuru Kenyatta will lead the nation in commemorating another Madaraka Day from the lakeside city of Kisumu; which he now knows like the back of his hand.
Since the March 2018 handshake with Raila Odinga, the President has visited Kisumu more times than university students have seen the inside of a lecture hall this year. The last time he visited, he told residents that he was considering getting a second wife from Kisumu pending approval from the First Lady. He is expected to give an update on that matter; to give Luo elders adequate time to get approval from the Kenya Wildlife Service on whether they can wear their traditional ostrich headgear during the bride price negotiations.
