WHY EDWIN SIFUNA IS WRONG
Kenya is not a failed state and a country where impunity reigns because it has never had a lawyer as president. There are millions of inept, corrupt and brutal lawyers who have occupied positions of power in Kenya, Africa and the rest of the world.
The judiciary has been one of the most corrupt and incompetent institutions despite being controlled and entirely led by lawyers.
Lawyers are behind most fraudulent transactions at the Lands Office, at the AG Chambers, in various ministries, state corporations, universities and the private sector.
What Kenya and other African countries lack isn’t the absence of lawyers or people with particular degrees in leadership positions; what is lacking is leadership with INTEGRITY operating within a transformed state, institutions and systems.
Anyone stuck on “Ruto failed because he studied zoology, so I will succeed because I am a lawyer” is actually far worse than Ruto.
It’s not about what you studied. It’s not about your occupation. And it certainly is not about the “software.”
It is, at the root, about the structurally, architecturally, and institutionally DEFECTIVE colonial STATE, colonial INSTITUTIONS, colonial LAWS and colonial SYSTEMS, which were not designed to serve Africans. They were designed to EXTRACT, EXPLOIT and DEHUMANIZE Africans.
The colonial STATE is inherently inimical to EQUITY, constitutionalism, DIGNITY and SOCIAL JUSTICE, which ought to be our ultimate collective vision for our societies.
It’s also about a transformative and REVOLUTIONARY vision and INTEGRITY.
Unless we focus on these things, the slogans about WANTAM, TUTAM, or any other, will continue to be nothing but clever manipulative propaganda to FORTIFY, entrench and perpetuate the unjust, inequitable and repressive colonial STATE.
I would rather have standard 8 leaders with integrity who are committed revolutionaries rather than corrupt lawyers, engineers, economists, theologians, teachers, accountants, zoologists, anthropologists, politicians, political scientists, physicians or physicists with a PhD.
Telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

Stop detaining & imprisoning journalists for doing their jobs.
Stop the threats & attacks.
Stop the lies & disinformation.
Stop targeting truth & truth-tellers.
As journalists stand up for truth, the world must stand with them.

Rigathi tells us that ksh 24 billion was stolen before they got into office. He claims to know where the money was dispensed from, how it was carried, who carried it and where it was taken. But for some reason, he will not report this case for arrests to be made. He only shares the story in church and other platforms.
A few weeks ago he said that the amount carried in sacks was 16 billion. But he has since increased it to 24 billion. If this is the money holding our economy making the government fail to pay civil servants, further making KRA fail to meet its targets, just arrest the thieves and get the money back! You are the government!! Or for what purpose do you share this information with us? What are we supposed to do with it? You have all the information plus the instruments of power so arrest the culprits NOW!!!
Anyway, when I remember that this is the same Rigathi Gachagua who told us that he had seen some guys in Ruaka selling drugs, na akawapita tu yet he had police and administration officers with him, I realize we are dealing with a clown who will say anything to entertain those listening to him. Its all comedy to him.
@OpiyoWandayi@KIMANIICHUNGWAH Source of the problem and frustrations....
Now good friends, we can tell which side is used to twisting stuff to suite the situation....
When a 'responsible government' keeps coming up with excuses....
How i wish we could be true to ourselves and just face the facts and causes.... You'll be 'shocked' how free the truth can set a truthful nation....
