...and lacking in respect. Wapi heshima ya rais wangu?

A tough time Kenya is going through, and with the proliferation of social media, every Wanjiku, Achieng, and Jeptoo, has a valid opinion.

But words never built the Roman empire. The arm chair critic never won a football match. And double speak never won a war.

Truth is we only control a fraction of our reality. As US learnt in Sep11/Benghazi or Tunisia/Egypt learnt in the Arab Spring. A leader only acknowledges their limitations then puts in effort and hopes for the best.

There must be a constructive way we can improve our country...

as someone has mentioned, mzee captured the kenyan scenario - siasa mbaya maisha mbovu.
I think the former president threw kenyans into an era that most had never thought of, and there we were with all the freedom we were craving for only to find out the fore runners of the liberation, or reforms or democracy or whichever word they choose to call themselves were just as corrupt, selfish and power hungry as the kanu regime stalwarts.

we are still growing in the new space we have found ourselves in, just that it was too sudden.

Can someone please post the gruesome pictures doing the rounds? Maybe that will bring some sanity on the trending threads.

Agreed its the leaders and both sides of the divide are to blame...CORD says they will do ABC...Jubilee keep on pushing the agenda that OAR is the one whose organizing all this hits...what do the supporters do?

Gentlemen, one would think the leaders elect themselves. I think they are a perfect reflection of the Kenyan today - the way we drive, we bribe, we discriminate; the way we're tribal, or disregard our heritage, or disrespect our institutions... you get the idea

@sheri, i agree that war has no place in our society and i echo your call for sanity.

unfortunately, @muganda is right, our leaders are a reflection of who we are as a people. we may not all be the same but our society has a lot of rot. i wish all the energy expended on negativity could be used to stand and do the right thing....for Kenya

@maka, that is why i said that we may not all be the same but regardless we are all now bearing the brunt of the rot in society which should not be the case. something has to give

Let us form a politic-economic interest group whose main role will be the creation of wealth and power of the individual and the group. Our technique will be simple: create investments that will transform our people to small production units, and intensify digital capital.

Let us commune and encourage 'dialogue' amongst ourselves. And inform, and support political parties without discrimination. That is, as social enterpreneurs, engage political parties on the demands of our growth and wealth as a polit-economic entity.

Let us promote our enterprise to all the people of Kenya and the world. Such that every where a human steps, we profit. That particular human profits. This means pulling out of Somalia and fostering mutual relations with all our neighbors, and all people we'll transact with.

Let our power be the ability to create peace, and generate wealth and excellence from it.
