AN ANGRY KENYAN

I received this mail from a friend far away. Methinks he couldnt have put it better.

I was appaled to observe that the opposition
lumineries didnt have time to take note of the
country's new status from LDC to DC.They are busy
throwing punches,mudslinging and whataview on each
other as usual.I always try as much as possible to
call a spade in its own name and not a big
spoon.Everyone,in govt or opposition,willing or
unwilling contributed to this.It really amazes that we
are still centuries back in our kind of politics.And
it wont change sooner.Why?If Lancaster house members
participants are still calling shots,even after their
sell by date,then the political quagmire will still be
in our shadows.Wait,look again.
If i tell you we have the best laws its only that we
never implements them maybe you can faulter me.Forget
about all these political bickering on clamour for
power.The law as it is spelled in the constitution,if
the founding fathers followed it to the letter after
independence,we could have been very far.I remember
the sessional paper of 1965 in my history class.A very
ambitious developement plan,which even the just
unveiled 2030 vision will never match.If its what my
history teacher described,though we didnt see it but
we believed,hatungekuwa pale pale to mimic your
granny.But as the saying goes,if wishes were
horses.......
Due to greed and love for power,the successive govt
has killed agents of change.Look back about T.J
Mboya,J.M Kariuki,Gama Pinto and all other folks you
know during Kenyatta era,Ouko,Bishop Kipsang
Muge,akina Njindo Matiba and all folks you may know
whom Nyayo govt did at it own will to destroy,Githongo
in Narc govt.We kill the only best and remain with
trash.Selfless,honest and great thinktanks have gone
down the drain.And we glorify their persecuters.Thats
why these successive govts found their "time to eat"
and the coming elections is a clear manifestation to
that.Its their time to vomit,not on donors shoes as Mr
Clay said but to Wanjiku for that 5yr more time of
"finishing developement projects" as they will be
pleading.And wanjiku as expected,customarily will 'eat
their vomit' for only a mere day and give them chance
for 5yrs more.
