When the V.P came calling…. Just how much ground in Trans Nzoia is wiper, And What is his profile….?

TNM GROUP
Hon Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka is aseasoned politician. He has been an MP much longer than most politicians that you may know. Yet he has chosen to be more reasonable and not confronta-tional in his approach in tackling social-economic vices that bedevil this country.
He now says he is ready and qualified to be president. I intend to give you a detailed account of his biography before which I will give a brief of his recent visit in Trans Nzoia County and how it was like to have him around. Thereafter his profile.
Almost a week ago, the county of Trans Nzoia had the privilege of hosting the VP and a host of other political bigwigs and top contend-ers for the position of president. Kenyans are of course upbeat and expectant of the much awaited and seemingly elusive general elections.
“a small Kenya”
The fact that Trans Nzoia county is a small Kenya‖ is no longer news, what seems to be news is the skepticism that has been considerably displayed when politicians come calling.
This trend of political maneuver-ings, gimmicks and illicit political alignments played center stage during the VP‘s visit. But the vice president was not only in Trans Nzoia to make political state-ments he was also around to see for himself how far the Mabanga peace process was being implemented.
Elders from the communities of Sabout, Bukusu and Teso assured the visiting VP, their resolve to work together for the sake of peace and development of our
county.
They also informed the vice president that they will support him wholesomely during the next bal-lot, owing to his outstanding re-cord of peace building not only in Kenya but neighboring countries.
The VP reiterated his resolve to ensure that the next general elec-tions were free, fair and democ-ratic. While addressing a fairly at-tended gathering in Kenyatta Sta-dium the VP was quoted as saying ―...the race to statehouse this time around is going to be more fierce and hotly contested than any time before….this is before the contest is between trouble-makers and peacemaker.The VP declared
himself the champion
He was apparently referring to his counterparts in ODM. He wet fur-ther to say that the contest isn't about reforms but an individual who could be relied upon as re-form champion. The VP declared himself the champion that Kenya direly requires.
Previously the URP leader and Eldoret North MP, Hon William Ruto had also visited Trans Nzoia but did not bag as much support as
had been widely publicized.
The Eldoret North MP, had to make brief his visit after realizing that the ground was not as receptive as he had envisioned. Trans Nzoia county therefore remain a fertile ground just like the rest of Kenya and is up for grabs electorally speaking for any smart political figures out for vote hunting.
The man who was born and brought up in Tseikuru
S tephen Kalonzo Musyoka was born in Tseikuru, a remote part of Mwingi District (then part of Kitui District) in Kenya's Eastern Province on December 24, 1953.Between 1960 and 1967 he studied at Tseikuru Full Pri-mary School to attain basic edu-cation.
He then went to Kitui High School in Kitui for the ordibary level and eventually to Meru School in Meru from where he graduated in the advanced level in 1973. Kalonzo Musyoka graduated with a Bachelor of Law degree from the University of Nairobi in 1977.
He continued further studies at the Kenya School of Law in 1978 where he was awarded a Post graduate diploma in Law.
