President Uhuru Kenyatta is set for a five-day tour of Nyanza on a blitz packed with projects to reignite handshake hopes among ODM boss Raila Odinga's supporters. The President said the handshake had given him peace of mind, declaring that for the previous two years, he ruled without fear. On Friday, Uhuru returns to Kisumu at a time when major developments have jolted their honeymoon, including the BBI setback at the High Court. The BBI process was declared unconstitutional, null and void, while Raila's supporters are jittery that he could be short-changed. Uhuru has previously dedicated a big share of his national day speeches to outline how the BBI process would end the destructive winner-take-all syndrome, address inclusivity concerns and cure electoral violence.
