This is a story of great betrayal and unhealthy politics which x-rays the political injustice which had become a common practice in our society. Kashi, the elephant of kimanja, was the choice of both the villagers and the animals, in their quest to have a president and commander-in-chief.

The sly and dubious personality which the tortoise is known for, was employed to portray the act of envy and deceit which the elephant mistook to an act of true comradeship and good will. However, the consequence of the tortoise deceitful act turned out to be tragic and unpalatable for the elephant, its supposed best friend who was at the receiving end.
