Those responsible for the non-realisation of the 2010 Constitution are gathered at KICC to commemorate the very document over whose slow death they have presided.
Dancing on its grave.
Luos were once known for producing doctors and professors. Nowadays the only place we are excelling is producing fake prophets like Ezekiel and Profit Owuor.
If ODM insists on the zoning nonsense in Nyanza again, it will be catastrophic. The other team MUST field candidates in every constituency and ward, and give us competent MPs. That zoning nonsense has crippled the region for decades because it gives certificates to the loudest, best kissers, and highest bidders.
Halafu age group ya 35-45 who are bearing the brunt of Jubilee 1 and 2 plus terrible county leadership on top, are you registered to vote? Numbers still low.
Or will you come to the socials to blame boomers who are registered and show up at the polls?
There is, in fact, NO Law requiring the hanging of the President's portrait in offices & Public places. It is all part of Imperial Presidency hangovers. The illegal enforcement is via denial of Licenses absent a portrait in business premises
Who thinks for this government? How do you justify forcing a minimum wage tea picker in Kericho or waiter in Kwale to finance middle class housing in Nairobi?
Dear Good People Of Homa Bay
Today, your youth were paid to block young political leader Sifuna from peaceably entering Homa Bay town. In so blocking him, the world was exposed to your roads that resembled those of Yemen. Immediately, you were led by your leaders to blame President Uhuru Kenyatta for your state of roads. Blaming President Uhuru is intellectual laziness.
Since independence in 1963, Homa Bay unlike the rest of Luo Nyanza has always been with the Government of the day. Whilst rest of Luo was against President Jomo Kenyatta, Tom Mboya from Homa Bay was our first Economy Minister that came up with our development policy still in use until today. For entirety of President Daniel Arap Moi rule, Homa Bay provided KANU with its powerful leaders. History therefore shows that Homa Bay stood out in Luo Nyanza as it always produced powerful Ministers in every regime. Now we have Mbadi as our Finance Minister!
2010 Constitution took away national development from sole control of the President to Parliament. Budgetary allocation, financial appropriations & development projects are now the exclusive role of MPs. If you have no development in your County, blame your MP. Your MP can only exonerate himself by showing Hansard Report to his contribution during the BUDGET PROCESS.
Finally, since 2012, all Counties receive Billions for own development. Since 2012, Homa Bay has received over Kshs. 140Billion. Can it be seen on the ground? Homa Bay cannot blame any President for its problems. They should look at the mirror & ask themselves why it has always had powerful Ministers yet no development.
2027 gives Homa Bay another chance to elect leaders that serve the people & not themselves. Maybe a start will be electing Raymond Omolo as your Governor. Raymond has proven himself. Give him a chance. He may turn Homa Bay from Yemen to Little Monaco or Montego Bay.
Don’t blame others. Fix your leadership.
Uhuru Kenyatta had been in office for 4 years when the 2017 election took place. The constitution does not set an election date (only a day), and there is nowhere a 5-year presidential term is guaranteed.
The constitution says that elections will be held on the second Tuesday of August in the 5th year.
Year 1 ended 9th August 2023
Year 2 ended 9th August 2024
Year 3 ended 9th August 2025
Year 4 ends 9th August 2026
Year 5 starts on Monday, followed by election Tuesday which is also the second Tuesday of that year.
Please note that no argument is possible about this point being so self-evident.
In short: You are the clueless one. And dishonest.
