Kalonzo Musyoka is Kenya's patient man of diplomacy, a former Vice President and long-serving foreign minister whose Wiper machine has made him the perennial bridge-builder of opposition politics. A lawyer who entered parliament at 32 through a Kitui North by-election, he chaired regional peace talks on Somalia and Sudan and earned the mediator's reputation he has traded on ever since. He broke with Kibaki over the 2005 referendum, co-founded the Orange movement, then served as Vice President through the grand-coalition years. Several times a presidential-ticket principal or deputy, he now leads the Wiper Patriotic Front into 2027 arguing that his steadiness is the antidote to Kenya's turbulence.
