Mutahi Ngunyi Tyranny of Numbers Kenya
Tyranny of Numbers was a hypothesis that was generated by Mutahi Ngunyi with a conclusion that Raila Odinga and his ‘CORD Alliance’ lost 2013 election to Uhuru Kenyatta Jubilee Alliance the moment the voter registration ended on December 18, 2012.
The “Tyranny of Numbers” makes a plausible but trivial claim, that is, that Kenya’s voting is historically influenced by ethnicity. This claim is plausible because identity is central to our national life- as it is in Belgium, Lebanon and any other multicultural country you may care to name. It is trivial because no one has ever won an election in Kenya through exclusive ethnic votes without mobilizing at least three ethnic groups and so undercutting the argument that people vote ethnicity.

He is credited with some pithy, if not sometimes unpalatable, political analyses. Mr Mutahi Ngunyi, the man at the centre of the National Youth Service (NYS) storm at the Devolution ministry, has not been short of ideas and comments on nearly everything.
After allegations emerged of irregular tendering and payments at the NYS, which has been undergoing restructuring, Devolution Cabinet Secretary Anne Waiguru said she had stopped an attempt to steal Sh826 million through the government’s Integrated Financial Management Information Systems. The Consulting House, which is associated with Mr Ngunyi, was brought on board to work on the reform blueprint for NYS.
