life is a beautiful mess

[Edwin Sifuna @edwinsifuna]

It’s actually the other way round Mr. President. There is a reason the right to life and the fundamental freedoms come first in the Bill of Rights. More than anything else we want to live in a free and democratic country because in the dark of the grave where you put Rex Maasai and Albert Ojwang, you can’t see shiny things.

When I look at Senator Edwin Sifuna, I see a minimalist. He has said repeatedly that he does not need a 12-bedroom house.

For him, a home that shelters him and gives each of his children a comfortable room of their own is enough.

His wardrobe tells the same story and that is something he has said it. According to him, a khaki trousers, a polo T-shirt and a simple pair of shoes is all he needs.

In his podcast interviews he calls himself a simple man, and he was once spotted on Nairobi's streets buying shoes from hawkers, searching for something comfortable enough to wear during the Sufuria maandamano. Few politicians walk the talk so literally.

Anyone who has sat in a university lecture hall or does research will recognise the idea that explains why this matters.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

Maslow argued that human beings climb a ladder of five needs, and that the way a person handles each rung reveals their character.

At the base are the physiological needs. That is food, water, shelter and rest. Sifuna meets these without fuss.

A house that is comfortable for his children, and shoes that are good enough to walk in, are all he asks for. He treats these needs as things to satisfy, not things to show off.

Next come the safety needs. Security, stability and protection. Many leaders turn this rung into a fortress of mansions and bodyguards. Sifuna, by contrast, has marched in the streets alongside ordinary citizens, showing that his sense of security comes from principle, not walls.

The third rung is love and belonging. His choice of a modest home built around his children shows where his attachments lie.

His street-level presence among hawkers and protesters shows that he wants to belong to the people, not hover above them.

The fourth ond, esteem, is where most politicians stumble, because it is about status and recognition.

Luxury cars and grand estates are the usual trophies. Sifuna's polo shirt and khaki trousers suggest that his self-worth does not depend on the opinion of onlookers.

At the top sits self-actualisation. Becoming the fullest version of oneself and serving a purpose bigger than oneself.

A leader who has settled the lower rungs without greed is free to climb here, and Sifuna is now reaching for the presidency.

That is what makes his story compelling.

A man who has already learned to cut his coat according to his cloth is less likely to treat public office as a vehicle for personal enrichment.

Whether he can turn that personal restraint into national leadership is for voters to judge, but his simplicity at least gives them a rare yardstick to measure him against.

From the bottom of my heart bro, I hate poverty bro, poverty makes you look like a bad person. I hate how it makes you look like a suspect, how it makes everything look expensive, and makes you miss out on things you genuinely want to be a part of. It makes your friends exclude you from special occasions and hangouts because they assume you can’t afford to come. I hate how you have to think twice before spending money on yourself, how you have to pretend you’re okay when deep down you’re struggling. I hate how poverty makes you feel less than everybody else when all you want is to live a normal life. I hate poverty bro, nobody deserves to live in poverty.
