National Rainbow Coalition - NARC Government

NARC Government

Despite its initial popularity, the NARC-led government has been troublesome. The friction between LDP and those loyal to Kibaki became apparent. After the Kenyan constitutional referendum in 2005, all LDP members were thrown out of the government. Subsequently LDP became an opposition party, forming the Orange Democratic Movement, a coalition opposition politicians. Later, NARC members loyal to Kibaki founded a new party, NARC-Kenya. Consequently, the original NARC was left in the hands of its chairperson Charity Ngilu who also served as the minister of health.

Famous quotes containing the words narc and/or government:

    “They’ll bust you in the lobby. You look like a training poster for the narc squad.”
    —John Guare (b. 1938)

    “I wish my countrymen to consider that whatever the human law may be, neither an individual nor a nation can ever commit the least act of injustice against the obscurest individual without having to pay the penalty for it. A government which deliberately enacts injustice, and persists in it, will at length even become the laughing-stock of the world.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
