Savage politics is a platform where we have hard-hitting political conversations with the aim of informing and transforming. The show is hosted by Cyrus Jirongo, a long time Kenyan politician and businessman who's been in the political space since the early 1990s. On this premier episode we host the iron lady herself Martha Karua.
Martha Karua christened as the Iron lady by most is a Kenyan politician and the NARC Kenya party leader. She has been a key pillar in Kenyan politics and in the fight for democracy over the years. Her solid takes in the political arena have given her love and hate in equal measure among the Kenyan citizens.
She speaks to Cyrus on the status of Kenyan politics, critically analyzing the issues affecting the citizens in general. As a senior counsel she looks into the adherence to the rule of law, the effects of good governance and why every citizen should take responsibility in making Kenya a better country.
