Musalia Mudavadi's attempt to rein in some Luyia MPs who have shown a preference to work with Raila Odinga may not be working. Meeting the MPs at the Mayfair on Tuesday, Mudavadi asked them to stick together and cautioned those working with Raila that they threatened the unity of region. It seems an MP attending the meeting was not convinced and he went straight to the PM's office where he reported all that had transpired. The MP brushed off criticism from his colleagues who saw this as an act of betrayal by reminding them that his political future , just like theirs, lay in the hands of the electorate and not individual leaders.

Makadara MP Mike Sonko is alarmed that a former MP who aspires to regain the parliamentary seat would go ahead and organise a meeting with members of the Buru Buru business community in one of the MP's hotels. The man is scheduled to hold yet another meeting, this time with matatu operators at the same venue. Unhappy that his hotel is being used to plan his downfall, Sonko has directed the hotel manager not to book any function of the ex-MP in the hotel. It seems Sonko's politics have come in the way of the business and cash that the man is bringing to his hotel.

Dujis MP Adan Duale subscribes to the G7 political ideology. His deep convictions were on display yesterday when he robustly supported the decision by the police to stop a anti-ethnicity, pro-nationalist forum that was scheduled to be held at the Limuru Conference Centre. The forum, held to counter the two meetings held at the same venue by GEMA, was to discuss the kind of future that Kenyans should strive for. Duale was overheard telling his Kikuyu and Embakasi parliamentary colleagues Lewis Nguyai and Ferdinad Waititu—"Hao wakora wasikubaliwe Limuru" (Those thugs should not be allowed in Limuru!)
