Dear Members,

Thus spoke our first president elect, under the new constitution, on Sat 9th Mar:
Quote:
The elections are over; today marks the beginning, much more needs to be done today. Every person takes responsibility.”

“For those who are celebrating let us be modest in victory. To those who voted for any of my opponents - let us keep in mind the broader victory of Kenya, and continue to uphold peace. Let us remember that while, in a democracy, some contestants must, inevitably, lose - the citizens of a country never do.


In an effort to foster the Wazua spirit, we are considering a short hiatus from ClubSK>>Politics for a period of one week.

Please share your views in relation to our suggestion to freeze Politics section. We continue to monitor the general temperature related to ongoing exchanges with concern.

The Wazua spirit

I also support. Funga kabisa till after inauguration if possible.

Some people have taken the outcome of the electoral process either as a personal win or loss. Too much emotions invested, money lost, egos and pride shattered. Siege mentality is quickly finding its way.

Peace is what we want to achieve but the temperatures are rising.

My suggestion is unorthodox. Let there be one topic open in politics.Let people get down to the real issues.We discuss power,democracy,tribalism and such other issues.Not on flimsy arguments or without agenda,but putting peace ahead.Solutions implies problems.Getting to the root cause of the problems is the difficult task as here is where many views will be aired,challenged and disapproved.

Let Wazua be the place of inspiration for Kenyans.Let the Wazuans/Wazualets be exposed and the stands they take be seen to all. It might not change anything but at least it will be a shining example of the Kenya we want to see and once and for all your stand will also be noted.

I appreciate the difficult position this puts Wazua on considering the governments position on online discourses but I also realize that if people don't get let out their frustrations they just might bubble up to something worse.

The question is,how will the hiatus achieve peace?
Uncertainty is certain.Let go

You don't really have to, I think slowly the site has predominantly members leaning towards one side, the intolerance has made some take a break and I think I was on ma way out and thus there will be no exchanges as they will say all their stuff to their fill.

Let me make it simple for us all:

You want a freeze on politics, close down the site.

How about "essential politics only".

Not advisable to cool off completely.Meanwhile Wazuans lets keep peace, respect for one another and and self regulation.

It will be very difficult to keep off politics at this time. There's so much happening and if we fail to discuss these issues openly then we will be failing to provide leadership.

Wazuans only need to remember that they are their brothers' and sisters' keepers.

I second mahegoat...wazuans will always find a way to start the politics topics under investor, groups, market, sme or even other sections of Club SK....freeze the whole site Sad

Problems can get out of proportion, and not only in the wee small hours. Don't let the problems eclipse the Master. Let the Master eclipse the problems.
