Now That Itumbi Is Sacked Here Are Seven Things That Dennis Itumbi Can Get To Do For Relevancy…He Really Should Consider 4 and 6 and 7
Kaput! Just like that the digital’s age Joseph Kamotho career and role as the official digital propaganda warrior for the Jubilee administration came to an end.
Perhaps he saw it coming or like us he was just hit with the instructions to not dare get to State House and sit at home till further instruction. All in all he was gone and we will not be seeing the digital ears, eyes and mouth of the president. Regardless of your opinion of him, it is hard not to admire something about Itumbi.
He was everywhere and ready with an answer correct or otherwise. He overshadowed all the CSs, his boss Esipisu and even Duale had nothing on Itumbi when it came to defending anything Uhuruto. Thus we feel it will be duly unfair and contrary to character for a man with Itumbi’s fighting spirit to just go silent into the night.
This was a man the Public Service Commission did not know who paid him, the NSIS had a brief on him, the ICC knew his name and the villagers thought he is a Cabinet Secretary.
So here are 7 things Ole Itumbi can get down to do to remain in the public eye and at least ensure we see and write about him more often.
Sue the New York Times and/or ICC
Itumbi being Itumbi knows it is the size of the fight in the dog that matters. Before being rendered jobless he had already caused quite a stir demanding an apology from the New York Times for suggesting he had been under ICC investigation. See how far the man had come?
To any who dared suggest the New York Times is not the Star Dennis had the inspiration and menace to remind them of David in the Bible and we all know how that went.
With Itumbi now free of duties and even the obligation for some level of decorum, he can take on the ICC bare knuckled and treat us to the entertainment that will come of it.
Open An Online Library and get An Office At The National Archives
Dennis Itumbi had the knack of appearing at any gathering, whether interviews or just outdoor meetings with a folder full of papers or a tab ever in use. With this he would present hundreds of papers just to respond to one questions or accusations. He was obsessed with facts especially when they favored him and he never Knew a yes or no answer.
He had to illustrate and substantiate with examples and precedents. Unverified sources claim he contributed to 15% of Kenya’s Google searches. We reckon he will do with opening an online library of public matters especially to do with UhuRuto administration. The best place to be based at will be the Kenya Archives in a tent where he will be easily accessible.
Vie as an MCA
Ultimately, the only way to remain in the public eye is to be in politics. Itumbi’s skill set and reputation mean it really in politics that he can rise higher than his former office. Now the good man had much influence in form of name and power but his finances cup did not overflow whether in private or in his enemies presence. So we reckon national assembly posts to be a tad too expensive. However, he sure has enough prominence and finances to start as an MCA somewhere in Embu where his sophistication will see him head committee after committee until he is the chair of all MCAs in Kenya if such a position exists if doesn’t you can be sure he will create it at least on Whatsapp. His skills in a shouting march should pave a rewarding career path to the Senate itself.
Write a Book: My Experiences …
Itumbi has been in the corridors of power hob knobbed with the mighty and been privy to a number of state secrets. We sure would love to know the different processes and cogs of wheel dealing at the highest level. However, the one experience that will be comforting to many a brother and help them with tips will be his experience in Jacque Maribe’s friend zone. We feel you brother.
Start the 36+1 Bloggers Think Tank
Dennis Itumbi is a showman hence the +1, he always has to be first even among equals. Given how much he prides himself as a strategist, he could re-invent himself and give the aging Mutahi Ngunyi a run for his money especially with the aid of his 36 bloggers army. Itumbi would sure be at home here.
Start A Chapati Making and Distribution Business
Since he has proven adept at mobilization and given the contacts he established with the street children who enjoyed his treat, Itumbi can soon have the best distributorship of chapos in the streets. He can start a solid chapo movement and in no time he will be an entrepreneur to be exemplified, winner if different awards and grants for his work to empower street families and thanks to his self promotion expertise e a UN, FAO and UN Habitat ambassador paving way for the second Kenyan to win a Nobel.
Come Work At GHAFLA!
Yes, he will have a wide reaching platform where he can build consciousness and be our chief political commentator or chaplain and the masses will no longer be corrupted with Etemesi’s Fetishes and erotica. His will be the balancing act and any company can do with a defender of the gusto and bare knuckled approach he brings to his work.
Get A Luhya Girl And Marry
Dennis Itumbi while at his former job was indeed among the eligible bachelors in town. However, with the power gone the allure does tend to fade among the hawkish Nairobi girls. So it means he has to look for a lady from communities famed to be home keepers come what may. A Luhya lady will also help him add uniform roundness not just the belly area. Being married traditionally increases a man’s prestige and offers credibility of one’s leadership skills. He will also stop looking like the final desperate option of Jacque Maribe and we can all forget about this KISS
