Now that Tundu Lissu has made some progress in his convalescence, it is of no surprise that he has decided to get back into the fray.
He has done several interviews with both foreign and domestic media outlets, he has penned a letter from a Nairobi hospital bed, and lastly held a presser In Nairobi right before his voyage to Belgium. I wonder if we’ll also get a ‘letter from a rehab room in Brussels or wherever he’s at in Belgium. We shall see.
Having done all that, he is also now fair game. It’s now okay to respond to him, to attack him [not physically], to criticize him, etc.
Because he has basically picked up where he left off, I’m starting to hear some folks in certain quarters float his name as a potential 2020 presidential candidate. Perhaps these folks think he has shown he has what it takes to take on JPM in the next presidential contest. That’s fine. Nothing wrong with that. If I were him I’d probably try to parlay the notoriety I’ve gained over these past two years into something bigger, like the presidency.
But I’ve said it so many times, right here and elsewhere, that he is not a presidential material. He is, at best, a political gadfly, and maybe, at worst, a rabble-rouser.
A presidential material, he is not.
Just my two cents from a distance. I wish you all a happy Sunday!
