The coming together of opposition leaders to form what Kenyans have dubbed the Wamunyoro group was an anti-climactic for many of us seeking national renewal in 2027. The group which brought together many recycled members of previous administrations included some people with a chequered past that disqualifies their candidacy for leadership in the Kenya we want.
A more troubling charge against the Wamunyoro group is that they are obsessed with replacing the Kenya Kwanza (KK) administration and do not seem to offer alternative solutions to the myriad economic challenges bedeviling the nation. Although the national consensus is that the KK administration is irredeemable, the Gen Z revolution was symptomatic of a nation that has undergone fundamental social changes that require more than merely sending the President to Sugoi. That the Wamunyoro group do not understand these fundamental changes is ample evidence that they are not the transition leaders that will midwife a new Kenya.
