ODM has stated its official position on the ongoing wrangles over the pecking order, insisting that PM Raila Odinga was an equal of President Kibaki's.
I have no problems with Raila becoming an equal to President Kibaki if "coalision" means equality according to Prof. Nyongo's Dictionary.All I want defined is the word "Vice-President" for the sake of our children whose teachers demand a conventional answer in their Civic lessons, a universal answer. If Kalonzo is 3rd in the pecking order,then that makes Raila 2nd to Kibaki,not his equal.By this logic, Raila is then Kibaki's VP,not his equal.If Kalonzo is Raila's junior,then Kalonzo is Raila's Deputy, not Musalia. what a mess!
