Duty-Free importation of basic food commodities destroy local producers & manufacturers. The only beneficiaries are politically correct brokers! Such policies are not for a country that wants to be Singapore. @AnneWaiguru
On this Mashujaa Day l celebrate One Shujaa we laid to rest in Bondo yesterday,Raila Odinga!
Wuod Sakwa,Wuod Nya Alego,
2nd Prime Minister of Kenya,
Former Mp for Langata and Party Leader @TheODMparty .
Though Shujaa Raila Odinga,the Father of Devolution,is dead ,Devolution must not die with him and we must all become Shujaas to fight for Devolution that holds the key to a more Just Kenya, a more Equitable and inclusive Kenya that Raila fought for but is now under threat as Counties are starved of resources and employees go for months without pay and the National Government continues to claw back on the gains of Devolution and encroach on devolved functions.
Though Shujaa Raila Odinga the Freedom fighter is dead, the flame of freedom that burned in his heart throughout his years of detention and fighting in the trenches,must not die with him and We must all become Shujaas to fight for freedom at it’s hour of utmost peril ,especially now after the signing into law of the Computer Misuse and Cyber crimes (amendment Bill) 2024,within hours of his death, which law criminalizes dissent and curtails freedom of expression and reduces the digital democratic space that Our Shujaa Raila fought for throughout his life.
As my friend @GitobuImanyara argued the draconian Computer Misuse and Cyber Crime (Ammendment Bill)2024 law passed on the day Raila passed on says if you post something that offends someone online, you could be fined up to Sh20 Million or jailed for 10 years. Ten years for a tweet, a meme a Facebook post or a Tiktok video that the state finds uncomfortable!
This is not a law about protecting the public from cybercrime. It is a law about protecting power from criticism. It is a desperate attempt by a failing regime to silence the country's most vocal and politically awoke generation, the Kenyan Youth.
Is this the Kenya Shujaa Raila would have wanted ,without freedom of speech or expression?
To be Shujaas like Raila We must be prepared to sacrifice as he did the comfort and allures of the trappings of power ,offices and money that comes with collaboration with the System ,than the suffering that comes with confrontation of the violators of these rights and freedoms and the courage to stand for higher ideals than higher deals!
To be such Shujaas we must be Patriots who are prepared as Raila was in the words of Elvis Presley’s song “Impossible Dream
“To run where the brave dare not go
To fight for the right without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell for a heavenly cause
To right the unrightable wrong”

This is a 1000-gram iron bar. Its basic value is around $100.
If you use it to make horseshoes, it could be worth $250.
If you use it to make sewing needles, it could be worth about $70,000.
If you make watch springs and gears, it could be worth about $6 million.
But if you make precision laser parts like the ones used in lithography, it could be worth $15 million.
Your value isn’t just in what you’re made of – it’s mostly in how well you use what you have.
Why can't Islam go back and build their countries like Somalia, Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan why go to countries Christians have built for years and try to impose your retrogressive religion to progressive societies?
This man saw it many years ago when I was still a toddler.
We shall do the Lords work and redeem our nation from political cabals.
Kenya needs a renaissance
So right now TSC employment letters are being issued from statehouse to MPs then they'll go to their supporters or sale at Sh.200K each. Will the children of the poor ever get employed. What happened to interviews and vetting of teachers @TSC_KE@MarthaKarua@EugeneLWamalwa
The Kenyan Civil Servants are paid by the Kenyans through taxes not politicians or a holder of an office for 5yrs term! Threat to Civil Servants who are apolitical is a crime!
Uhuru Kenyatta and Ali Hassan had differences between 2013 - 2017. Uhuru didn't sponsor impeachment motion against him as Mombasa Governor what William Ruto is trying to do to Natembeya George it gives dictator vibes!
Politicians are elected by the people why do they end up becoming sycophants of a president? You are governor in charge of a county with funds allocated in the constitution how does being a sycophant help in development?
