Silly season when politicians herd Kenyans into tribal cocoons for elections is upon us

I get confused and blush when I read from analysts and commentators that Kenyan politicians should give us “policies” and “issues-based” politics. Which “issues”? My argument has consistently been that unless we get a new non-ethnic political narrative, the current political class in Cord/Nasa and Jubilee are incapable of any “issues”.
