Elachi’s comments are about the state redirecting responsibility for a collapsing economy onto a small demographic of migrant workers working in the informal economy (which is itself evidence of failed development strategy) and the UN expanding in Kenya strengthens the extractive/luxury consumption orientation of the Kenyan economy which reinforces underdevelopment.
Both critiques are actually quite consistent.
This morning, myself and Dr. Fred Matiang’i held talks as part of ongoing consultations with other opposition leaders to enhance opposition unity with the hope of building a broad coalition committed to transforming Kenya. The overarching goal remains forming a government based on constitutionalism and rule of law, and the total eradication of state capture and corruption.
It has started. Nationalistic politics and demonisation of immigrants...this is not South Africa!
You are an MP @BEATRICEELACHI ! Legistlate for fair wages and implementation of a framework for registration of EA migrants and issuance of work visas .
Kenya strongly protests the decision by Israel to include the country amongst those whose travellers it will restrict. This is esp unfortunate given Kenya’s support to regional surveillance & response to Ebola. With over 80,000 tests, no case of Ebola has been reported in Kenya.
“It’s strange how the idea of heaven is a completely untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a utopia of peace, unity and happiness..
But here on Earth it���s considered a crazy Communist ideology.”
I will never understand how so many of y'all were hoodwinked into believing the government should not use the money YOU PAY IN TAXES to create a social safety net that benefits YOU.
He's lying.
African Union Commission has not given him any mandate or approval to represent 54 African Nations at the G7 meeting in France.
William Ruto is heading to the G7 purely as the House Nigger.
In my lifetime, China lifted 850 million people out of poverty, while the US created one trillionaire. It is clear as day that socialism is the key to our future.
Africa means everything to us. The retards cannot comprehend why we value dignity and constantly demand full sovereignty in our own countries more than crawling for a visa to go lick boots in the enemy’s territory.
Empires in decline tend to drop the mask, not because they become more honest, but because maintaining the mask requires resources, coordination, and a functional ruling class capable of sustained strategic thought.
Late-stage empires get cruder.
Not more evil. Cruder.
Less able to sustain the complexity of the justificatory architecture.
Less able to recruit the talented people needed to build and maintain it.
Less able to coordinate the allies needed to give it international legitimacy.
Trump is not the cause of that crudeness.
He is its symptom and its accelerant.
The empire was already losing the capacity to sustain the mask when he arrived.
He simply has no interest in trying.
What you are watching is not a uniquely dangerous man seizing control of a healthy institution.
You are watching a hollowed institution find the leader it deserved.
The man and the moment are perfectly matched.
That is what makes it, in the most grim possible sense, historically coherent.
@0chibo_ Fear of death is essentially the fear of unknown. We just have to make peace with the fact that we can't predict how life turns out. It's a realm beyond our control. Any attempt at predicting the unknown leads to anxiety and self-resentment.
LRT, mnajua kweli how the Kenyan police actually started?
The East Africa Police was established by the British colonial state to protect three things: European settlers, colonial officials, and the Uganda Railway, from the Afrikans.
The police were built to control us, not protect us.
