Chance to steer KK ship clear of iceberg is being wasted

The hubris on both sides of the Kenya Kwanza - Azimio political divide, even as civil unrest threatens the country, points to a people aboard a ship on a collision course with an iceberg. The Titanic tragedy of 1912 comes to mind.

The luxurious Titanic, the most iconic ship ever built at the time, was touted as unsinkable. Yet, on its maiden voyage, it sank in the North Atlantic Ocean when an iceberg that the captain and ship's crew saw a tad too late tore the hull and let in millions of gallons of water. Within two hours, the ship sank. The Kenya Kwanza (KK) liner, our supposedly 'invincible' political ship, is facing a similar predicament.
