BUT you can do something to STOP IT before it is too late...
Facts About The Coming General Elections;
- The above headlines may look far-fetched, but under the current Kenyan constitution that gives seating Presidents powers that are close to those of the Almighty, they are actually mild. Things can be a lot worse.
- The same politicians who have brought the nation of Kenya to its knees have already launched their political campaigns for 2007 (many of them under the ODM (banner). If Kenyans do not wake up to what is happening, history will repeat itself and we will end up with the same individuals in parliament after 2007.
- Many of these politicians are already drumming up tribal support and dividing Kenyans along tribal lines, in readiness for the general elections. If nothing happens soon, they will be successful yet again and Kenyans will continue to sink deeper and deeper into the current leadership crisis as a certain clique of politicians (who believe that it is their turn to "eat) get richer and enjoy all the perks of being an MP. Even more perks and a further tax-free salary hike for MPs are sure to follow immediately after the general elections and you can be sure that it will be passed unanimously.
- Remember that a politician does not change simply because they have defected to the opposition or to another political party. Or when they decide to stand for President and even hurriedly set up a foundation for the welfare of Kenyans. No former Kanu politician can transform himself or herself into a liberator overnight. You cannot rub off the spots off a Cheetah and even if you do a major paint job, the Cheetah remains a Cheetah.
What needs to be done;
- There is only one known way to deal with this "cancer" (the current leadership crisis in Kenya) and that is -- Radical Surgery!!
- This 'radical surgery' often means that parts of some good functioning organs in the body also need to be cut out to ensure that the cancer is ruthlessly halted before it ruthlessly eats away the entire body. This means that while there are some good guys in the current parliament, the only way forward is for Kenyans to vote out the entire lot. Yes, let's have a completely new set of faces in Parliament. Let us look to vote in a completely new generation of youthful politicians (for better or for worse) and as many women as possible (so far they have a much better track record in public office than men).
- We appeal to all Kenyans under the age of 45 to rise to the occasion and ensure that the coming elections belong to the under 45s and individuals who have never been voted into parliament before. Remember that many Kenyans who fall into this age bracket are the individuals successfully running corruption-free corporations and multi-nationals in Kenya and all over the world.
- We appeal to every Kenyan aged around 45 years (give or take two years) to ensure that their constituency has as many young people standing for public office as possible. Don't worry about funding or winning, the priority right now is to sensitize Kenyan voters. Remember that the money that funds the vast majority of political campaigns in Kenya is corruption money anyway. Once we are all reading from the same script you will be amazed at the possibilities.
- Even if you don't care much about politics, you owe it to your children and grand children (what will you tell them that you did about the problem before it got worse?). Your children cannot live in foreign countries forever and there are hardly enough green cards to go round anyway.
