We Marshall thousands to watch football matches and political rallies,yet we cannot do the same to solve this issue? If every willing Kenyan is to give 50 bob,the hunger will be history:Emergency food then dig up boreholes!But i see no leader ho has the guts to spearhead such an initiative....so we continue dying,burying the dead then next year we claim we want change,chungwa moja sijui tujitokenze?then this dude ati tuko pamoja?tukikufa njaa?? javascript:insertsmiley('%20','/Images/Emoticons/eusa_naughty.gif') ...

For example if we decided to contribute 50 bob each believe me the people coordinating the receipt of the money and disbursing it will still steal from us. Policies,policies even if it means adopting GMO foods we should have them Kenya ni yetu sisi sote

Irrigation programs in the otherwise fertile but dry areas should be prioritized…these communities should also be encouraged or better still forced to enrol their children to schools…and why the hell would somebody get over ten children in this time and age???? Family planning programs should be enforced. Pastoralists should be taught the need of keeping fewer and more productive animal breeds instead of overwhelming pastures with thousands of unproductive animals…

Our biggest problem is implementing these policies. Look at what has happened in the case of free primary education and also ministries of water, health etc. We will never get anywhere if we do not confront corruption head on. This is where I think we need a benevolent dictator for the next president. We should borrow a leaf from China on how to tackle corruption.

Their men have built palatial homes and are sorrounded by paupers. They eat CDF and give hand outs to the ignorant few who praise them for being sonkos what to do? If water was harvested well in Londokwe there would be no Mwolyos(relief food) any more. River Athi crosses through our land and drains to Indian Ocean with impunity(as in no Kamba leader can touch it) . 2012 is here.Kenya is Ours.Be Part of The Peace Keeping Mission To Protect Our Motherland.Say No To Violence and Tribal Hatred .If you can read this,wewe ni mtu amesoma, usifikirie kama mtu hajaenda shule .Ni Hayo Tu
