Khalwale: Is he a political gun for hire or reformist?

Dr Khalwale has several wives although he declines to say how many. Three of his children have completed university while the fourth is at university. Two are in primary school.
He loves bullfighting and watching soccer and boxing. His favourite tipple is Tusker, taken strictly on weekends. His favourite food is ugali (maize meal), beef and the traditional vegetable mrenda.

I support Mr Khalwale 100%. But we should remind ourselves that firebrand politicians from Western province have always been bought rather cheaply. Remember Shikuku and Kijana Wamalwa? I hope Khalwale is genuine in his crusade and not just trying to raise his price for silence from the powers that be. Namwamba on the other hand hates Khalwale because the latter seems to be stealing the thunder.

Dr Khalwale is the most vocal leader of the PAC to date, and this is causing the corrupt big-wigs to be very uncomfortable. He may sound personal, but to fight corruption, you have to be personal, like Githongo, naming actual names instead of just saying that Ministers are corrupt like Karua! Bonny, lets have these names and corrupt scandals brought to the public knowledge!

As a fellow Musingu High School Alumni. I know where this guy derives his drive from. We were taught over the years to question the status quo

Do all kenyans suffer from poor memory?Is this the same guy who would not pay taxes on his hefty allowances coz doing so would make him as poor as the people of Ikolomani?On that he agreed with the Ruto's coz to him not paying taxes is not corruption,right?Now he's the anti corruption crusader,give me a break.
