UPDATE: Why are some Kenyan politicians organizing and oathing young men? The happenings in the Mount Elgon area of Bungoma, Transzoia and West Pokot needs a closer look by all peace-loving people of Kenya comprising security agencies, citizens, political and religious leaders. Even the international community should take a keen interest. Information reaching me has indicated that some politicians and politically connected people from the area and further away in Rift Valley counties are organizing and oathing selected young men from one community. In July 2024, some residents in the area reported a suspicious gathering of young men with a few elder politicians and influential people in the forest.The young men are said to have developed quiet behaviour after the meetings and unwillingness to engage widely with other people. This behaviour change raised suspicions as to what the young men and their handlers were up to. Sporadic meetings continued with a climax in late September 2024. About 50 young men met with  a few elderly politicians(both current and former), community elders and highly politically connected individuals in the bush at the border of Trans Nzoia and West Pokot counties. Some of the highly politically connected  individuals are well-known operatives of the president, Ruto the butcher of sugoi. A top trade union leader from Western Kenya was also present and has since been taking every opportunity to remind Kenyans that Ruto’s second term as president is guranteed. The gathering went late into the night flowing into the wee hours of the following morning. A resident of the area, who sought anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, said the gathering was an oathing ceremony for the young men. The resident said a governor of one of the counties stumbled into the oathing ceremony. The young men were removed from the location deep in the night when the ceremony was completed and taken to an unknown destination. It is true that what happens in the dark eventually gets revealed. The oathing could be taken as a simple tradition of the communities in the area. However, the question arises as to what role the influential politicians and well-connected individuals played in organizing and financing the oathing and mobilization of selected young men. A further question arises as to what the role of the oath could be. History teaches us to identify trends in human behaviour and events to put in place mitigation measures to prevent recurrence of disastrous events. Investigations in the 2007 post election violence revealed oathing ceremonies that had been carried out in the Kalenjin community to recruit warriors who participated in  the post election violence. They were organized by politicians and community elders. As the old adage goes, once bitten twice shy. The political temperature in Kenya is rising by the day as the country approaches the 2027 election. All indications are that the presidential election will be hotly contested with majority of Kenyans and some leaders seek to remove William Ruto. I call upon all Kenyans to critically examine the happenings in the Mount Elgon and other areas where political intolerance by both government and politicians is rising by the day.
