Raila Odinga is now a government employee after Uhuruโs government listed him among people who are allowed to mount sirens in their cars.
Today a directive from the government read:
โYou are directed to ensure that the general public is not inconvenienced by vehicles with sirens trying to clear road for VIPs. Warn your officers attached to VIPs that any officer who will use sirens to clear the way for the VIP will be dealt with in disciplinary proceedings and re-deployed immediatelyโ
The directive then listed top government officials allowed to mount sirens:
- The President
- Deputy President
- Retired Presidents
- First Lady
- CS Ministry of Defense
- CS Ministry of Interior
- CS Ministry of Foreign Affairs
- CS National Treasury
- Raila Odinga
This means any person outside this bracket isnโt allowed to cause trouble on the road unless his name is included in the list.
In Kenya itโs almost obvious that any person that feels so important would push you out of the road using sirens. The most notorious people are Governorsโฆthey behave like gods!
From now henceforth, if anyone not listed in the list tries to push you off the road,donโt move!
