Why Mutahi Ngunyi is Hopelessly Equating Ruto's Massive Support in Mt Kenya to Appearance of Hyena in a Market


State-sponsored propagandist and the de facto mouthpiece for the dynasties, Mutahi Ngunyi, seems to have ended his October by throwing in the towel as he scornfully admitted that DP William Ruto's support in Mt Kenya is unwavering, but useless.

Ngunyi whose spirited scaremongering efforts and anti-Ruto propaganda in Mt Kenya have failed to yield anything significant for his dynastic masters, has now resorted to belittling Ruto's massive support in the region equating it to the impact of a hyena in a market.

In a tweet on Saturday evening, Ngunyi appeared to imply that the huge support Ruto seems to enjoy currently in the vote-rich region, will not translate to anything meaningful come 2022.

"On THURSDAY, the KIKUYU crowds SUNG out to the HUSTLER messiah "...HOSANNA, HOSANNA". Then on Good FRIDAY they SUNG out "...CRUCIFY him, CRUCIFY him". If you TAKE a HYENA and a GOAT to the MARKET, which will ATTRACT the CROWDS? And which ANIMAL will the CROWDS take HOME? SWALI Tu," Ngungi tweeted in his typical style.

But Ngunyi's scorn is no surprise and was to be expected. His slanted interpretation of the current political situation in Mt Kenya is a crystal-clear reflection of desperation and frustration by his masters whose political fortunes in the region continue to sink to abyss.

The tone of Ngunyi's tweet bears all the hallmarks of a soar loser whom because would never want to be seen to be disappointed in any of their pursuits, will always pretend to dislike everything which they cannot obtain.

In fact, his trivializing of Ruto's support by the Kikuyu hustler nation can only serve to remind us about the fox and the grapes fable, with Ngunyi and his ilk being represented by the fox.

The Fox & the Grapes

A Fox, very hungry, chanced to come into a vineyard, where there hung branches of charming ripe Grapes: but hanging up so high on the tree, that he leaped till he could do it no more. At last, disgusted that he was unable to reach any of them, he scorns them saying, "they are but green and sour grapes; I did not want them anyway."

In conclusion, the moral of the story is that, there are many who will pretend to despise and belittle that which is beyond their reach and Ngunyi could not have done it better than this!
