Are some people in this country considered more human than others? When ordinary citizens are struggling with rising fuel prices, high taxation, collapsing purchasing power, and an unbearable cost of living, the political class remains heavily cushioned by public money. MPs continue receiving generous fuel allowances, car maintenance allocations, and multiple taxpayer-funded privileges while the same taxpayers financing those luxuries are being told to tighten their belts and endure economic hardship “for the sake of national stability.”
That contradiction is morally disturbing.
The ordinary Kenyan pays more for transport, food, electricity, and basic survival every single month, yet leaders insulated from that suffering continue operating within a protected economic bubble financed by the very people carrying the burden. Austerity is constantly prescribed to citizens but rarely practiced by the political elite themselves.
A serious government cannot continuously demand sacrifice from the public while preserving comfort at the top. Leadership should begin with shared hardship, not institutionalized privilege.
“A society begins to decay the moment leaders are protected from the suffering they impose on the people.”
Murkomen says Kenyans are protesting fuel at 242 KSh because William Ruto is president.
Then asks why people didn’t protest when fuel was 135 KSh under Uhuru Kenyatta.
What kind of logic is that?
So now Kenyans are not suffering because fuel is 242 KSh, they are suffering because William Ruto is president?
That is what Murkomen wants people to believe.
Instead of explaining why fuel, electricity, transport, and food prices keep rising, he asks why Kenyans didn’t protest when fuel was 135 KSh.
What kind of leadership answers economic pain with tribal politics and victimhood?
Kenyans are angry because life is becoming unbearable.
Not because of tribe.
Not because of politics.
Because survival itself is getting harder every month.
And this idea that people must stay silent today because they tolerated bad policies before is nonsense.
Did Kibaki ever cry that criticism existed because he was president?
Did Uhuru reduce every complaint to “they hate me”?
Reduce fuel prices.
Stop manipulating Kenyans.
Stop dividing the country to defend failed policies.
@K24Tv MP Saney is right — but honestly, what different outcome did he expect? This regime thrives on lies, deception, and deliberate neglect. The State of the Nation changed nothing because nothing was ever meant to change.
The junior police officers have come out guns blazing. They have told Murkomen to give his children guns to shoot people, kama ni damu anataka. The fear is gone!
