Mutahi Ngunyi’s “Tyranny of Death” on Mutula Kilonzo’s death

 Monday, April 29, 2013 

The blogosphere is spinning after a tweet by Mutahi Ngunyi seemed to implicate certain political quarters in the death of Makueni Senator Mutula Kilonzo.

Mutahi well known for his Tyranny of Numbers hypothesis prior to the March 4th general elections came up with a theory as to how or why Mutula died.

The tweet read: “An aborted revolution has a way of eating its own children. Two ODM MPs died immediately after the 2007 election. What ate Mutula and why?”

The tweet was drawing a parallel to the deaths of two ODM MPs in 2007 after the elections. The two MPs were David Kimutai Too who was the Ainamoi MP and Mellitus Were who was the Embakasi MP. The two deaths seemed to throw many Kenyans to a tizzy with many claiming the deaths were sacrificial.

The reference to ODM as being the revolution in the 2007 elections immediately led many to believe he was referring to the CORD revolution in 2013.

The tweet immediately caused a raucus with a section of Kenyans calling for Mutahi to tell them what he knows about the death of the Senator.

“Mutahi Ngunyi must tell Kenyans what he knows about Sen. Mutula’s death, if his tweet is anything to go by. Kenyans ain’t fools anymore.” tweeted Phillip Etale

“So could ODM be their own killers?..you seem to know more about his death Bwana Prophet. I wish you informed him before.” another tweet read

Is Mutahi Ngunyi offering the “Tyranny of Death” hypothesis?
