Former KBC TV host Elizabeth Irungu has zero (point) zero, zero chills. She has analysed the various tribes in Kenya and how they are politically inclined.
Using the popular TV series Game Of Thrones, Elizabeth cast our political families in the roles of the TV show's ruling class families like the Lanisters, Greyjoys, Starks and the Dothraki.
You have to be a hardcore fan of Game of Thrones to really get her post outlining the similarities.
KENYAN TRIBES & POLITICS: Only GAME OF THRONES FANS will understand my analysis below...
- Luos -The Greyjoys (Always leading failed rebellions)
2. Luhyas - The Starks (Always too loyal and it ends up biting them in the ass! Their "honor" is their death in politics)
3. Somalis - The Dothraki (You don't want to fight them in open grounds! They can be SAVAGE! So shoot arrows at them from high up in your 'stone houses' where they can't climb & reach you but in an open field,you are dead meat my friend)
4. Kikuyus -THE LANNISTERS of Kenya (They will do absolutely anything to retain their power both financial & political power! Stand in their way while they match to the Iron throne & you are history my friend!!!)
TRUE OR FALSE?
Check out the reactions from her Facebook followers.
Levi Mawenzi So who is the Tyrion of kikuyu lannisters?
Farrah Wyle Khalif Kalonzo is the Baltons ????
Mustafa Kasa Muihadeen No.5 should be KAMBAS: The Tyrells! Wanajua tu sex sio siasa!
Francis Nyambariga Onsomu No...kikuyus are Targaryans...first leaders of the 42kingdoms...kalenjins are the lannisters...
Jacob Tee Jones I rather think luos are Starks. Always getting betrayed
Jacob Tee Jones Oginga Odinga is Ned Stark. Kenyatta Senior is Tywin Lannister. Get the drift?
