@AlinurMohamed_ ODM has gone from fighting for the Presidency to now writing cover letters for Deputy President, Deputy Assistant, and soon, Deputy to the Assistant Sub-Chief in charge of tea breaks. At this rate, theyโll be lobbying for Liaison Officer of Mathare North Ward toilet committee.
@mungaikihanya A genius model - unlock dead capital by selling 2 or more elite schools' property worth ~50B and building 47 modern ones then funding them forever via Treasury Bonds - it's called investing in "futures" literally. But too bad our politics is still trading in the past.
@dnjaga1@dkmaraga ๐ฏHans-Hermann Hoppe in Democracy: The God that Failed (2001) posits that the masses everywhere are ignorant, short-sighted, motivated by envy, and easy to fool. Democratic politicians must appeal to these masses in order to be elected. Whoever is the best 'demagogue' will win.
Socrates was executed by the city of Athens for two charges: corrupting the youth and failing to believe in the gods of the state. The real offense was that young people saw him in the marketplace asking powerful men questions they couldn't answer. He made wealthy and respected citizens look foolish.
The young people of Athens started imitating him. They began asking their elders uncomfortable questions. They challenged authority using the same methods they'd seen Socrates use. That imitation was the corruption. Asking questions was the crime that warranted death.
@KenyanSays "Hakuna mahali utanipeleka" (Translation: "You will take me nowhere") is the most, if not, widely misused phrase on Kenyan roads. It's used recklessly by motorists and pedestrians alike to imply the audacious level of impunity in the country.๐
To illustrate, if we remove the word โConstitutionโ from this pleading, do we still have a cause of action?
NO? Then youโre probably in constitutional territory.
YES? Then a constitutional petition likely wonโt work.
You cannot litigate on a hypothetical constitutional harm.
Highly commendable initiative to seek accountability and reforms following the tragic stapede.
However, you might wanna consider the doctrine of constitutional avoidance - the principle against constitutionalizing every dispute.
Not every grievance belongs in the Constitution.
In the interest of justice, and to ensure a functional, accountable framework, we have filed a petition seeking to compel the relevant authorities to develop and enforce proper regulations governing social events and music concerts organized by private, profit-making entities.1/3
@Sonia_vibes Your land ownership is recorded in the official Lands Registry, not just on the physical title deed. The document itself is evidence of ownership, but actual land ownership derives from registration. However, a thief with your title deed can attempt to do fraudulent transactions.
@MiracleMudeyi Article 2(5): Customary International Law automatically becomes part of Kenyan Law. = MONIST
Article 2(6): Ratified Treaties form part of Kenyan Law as a "source of law" but require domestication. = DUALIST
Mitu-Bell Case: Kenya is primarily DUALIST with strong MONIST elements.
