MAKING OF KENYA PRESIDENCY FROM KEANYATTA TO KIBAKI
Making of Kenya Presidency is not easy as majority of younger politicians who are racing to state house believes.
Going through history of Kenya since independence the first three President starting with the founding father Mzee Jomo Kenyatta to the current leader President Mwai Kibaki were nationalist who suffered alot before climbing to the ladder
Kenyatta himself was freedom fighter who spend many years in jail later to become Kenya first President in 1963 upon his death in 1978 his long serving Vice President Moi took over as the second President of Kenya.
President Mwai Kibaki who took over in 2002 is a man of history given that he left his good job at Makerere University to help KANU without any payment later to become Vice President of Kenya but he was later removed and given Ministry of Healthy.
Kibaki left KANU to form opposition DP with former Minister John Keen and it was difficult for him to win Presidential race because KANU under President Daniel Arap Moi was strong for him and divided opposition.
Kibaki only win the race with the help of joint opposition and the rebels from the ruling party KANU.
As we head to 2013 election i have compiled anew book titled Making of Kenya Presidency from Kenyatta to Mwai Kibaki which will be published early next year.
Making of Kenya Presidency from Kenyatta to Kibaki offers historical background of Kenya election based on historical background.
According to the book majority of those racing to state house has no leadership quality like the first three leaders namely Kenyatta, Moi and Kibaki and the only way is to read history.
The book also traces Kenya leadership from 1902 when Kenya was still under colonial leadership.
