KENYA ELECTIONS: The Outcome, the DNA of Uganda's Sustainability

As Kenya,  East Africa's arguably best economy heads for presidential polls on tuesday,  I find it imperative that I try to squeeze juice out of this sacred election. I know most of you, just like me, have so many rhetorical expectations from this mighty election, but most sacredly are the questions that preoccupy our minds as to how the political show down will go in our neighbourhood. Most importantly, everyone is asking himself the question: 'What does the Harambe election mean to us as a country?. As I allow you to ponder on the connotative underpinnings of this election unto us, allow me first delve us onto the historical perspective and its alliterative explanatory shaping of Kenya's politics.  In 1895, Kenya became a Protectorate under the colonial york of the British.
