Who
bewitched us!
I know few people who know me and
my interest in the development of our country are surprised at how silent I am
in this political period. Don’t worry or get it twisted I am still here trying
to look to get an agenda I can talk about. But kid you not, it’s the same old
political rhetoric that gets worse by the day.
I have been looking for some new
political “noise” that would get me thinking. But too bad I keep forgetting I
am in Kenya and we have a status quo to maintain. My Bad.
Dear Kenyans time has come for us
to sit with manifestos presented to us in 2012. Forget those papers they spent
our money and launched over the weekend, trust you me even them do not trust
their own agenda. It was all over their face, you can take that to the bank or
take me to court I will defend that. Let
us sit with the Jubilee Manifesto or was it TNA then, Lord the metamorphosis,
and ask the hard questions. Where is that highway from Nyayo to Westlands that
was supposed to ease the Mombasa road traffic? Don’t even get me started on the
laptops. Ooh no there was even a 100 day plan, an accelerator to greatness.
Don’t forget the drought and the whole food security agenda let alone the fact
that I have suspect Unga in my house because suddenly, ugali became a luxury.
Let Jubilee give us real figures on unemployment then let us audit that. After
we are done with Jubilee let us ask Baba and his people if they knew what role
they should have been playing in the opposition. That they can answer before
they all account for their political career and the mile stones they have
achieved, since my grandma was a teenager some of them have been in government.
So let our politicians give us the answers.
Before I forget we have a whole
47 governors, who all had manifestos that looked like our villages would be
more beautiful than Malibu beaches in California. Have you been to your village
to check whether Canaan was delivered? Mine is yet to, if yours has let me know
I need a new home may be just may be. Our dear governors the best you have done
is complain to have more funds devolved, what have you done with the little you
were allocated? Btw how come some counties are yet to even finalise the
construction of their headquarters?
Build an office for yourself and at least lie to us how you spent money
setting structures. While at it lets unearth all this small lies they built, remember
the golden wheelbarrows, what about the golden curtains and the fish that swam downstream
before audit. Don’t get me started!
What I am saying is if we asked
the real hard questions we would ask IEBC or is it we would organize a walk of
shame to Supreme Court to ask for a cancellation of the elections. We would
most definitely need time to pick new candidates for all this positions. We
would frog march all the politicians from their offices and make sober
decisions on who we want as leaders.
Worry not I have woken up from
dream land. This is Kenya let us all wait for 8th August, we will queue for
long hours and vote in one of our own and sit b**tch for 5 years and wait for
another election. Oooh dear Kenyans who bewitched us!!
