One day, Kiraitu Murungi, then Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs, and President Mwai Kibaki were driving around and some boys showed up in the road and asked them to give them some little cash.
Kiraitu dipped his hand in his pocket and before he could extract the money, Kibaki asked him:
'Bwana Waziri, what are you trying to do?'
Embarrassed, he answered that he was getting some 'chai' for the young men by the roadside.
Kibaki then asked:
'Why should these people be given money?
What have they done? Don't they have farms to till or cows to feed?
Who invited them to come and stare at our motorcade?
Surely, must we just be paying people for standing by the roadside?'
Upon ascending to power, Kibaki never participated in any harambee because he believed that it was better to grow the economy than to dish hand-outs.
When a delegation from Nyeri went to him to ask for favours in terms of funding after the 2002 polls, the president told them, without blinking an eyelid, that banks in Kenya have things called loans which one could apply for and that State House was not licensed by Central Bank to offer credit.
A UDA victory in the 2022 elections will be a rude historical setback for Kenya
It will be 360 degrees about-turn
A waste of 30 years of progressive reforms
Dear Ruto, building houses is not development. Building markets without building factories is not development. You are indeed stupid and mad. Just a useless clueless politician.
Your father's "mpango" is a serious decision maker in your family. Huko ndio baba yenu anaenda to seek advice. A friend was telling me mzae alikataa kumpeleka majuu, so he decided to approach his 'small wife' amsaidie to convince him. Sahi kijana ako Melbourne.

This is strategic national infrastructure, built with taxpayer sweat and guarded under state control for national energy security. To hand it over to private profiteers through NSE listing is to auction Kenya’s sovereignty to the highest bidder.
KPC is not a roadside kiosk for cabinet hawkers to sell. The people of Kenya were never consulted. Parliament was never engaged. No public participation. It is unconstitutional, illegitimate, and immoral. We will resist it with everything we have. Kenya is not for sale!
