In a country characterised by identity politics, to have the President, the Chief Justice, the Attorney General, the Chief of the Revenue Authority, the Director of the Central Bank, and the Chief of the Defense Forces from the same identity group is highly problematic.
@FNasubo@TheStarKenya These guys might be planning on giving IDs to foreigners en mass to secure votes in 2027. A birth certificate is the primary document of citizenship allover the globe.
@TheStarKenya What kind of fallacy is this? A birth certificate is the original primary document proferring citizenahip by birth. An ID comes later in life and is based on a birth certificate as proof of citizenship. What is cooking given such statements?!
What's the state of political science in Africa? How is it practiced at African universities? These are questions asked – and answered – in the book Political Science in Africa: Freedom, Relevance, Impact. As of today it is #OpenAccess#OAWeek@LaaksoLiisa https://t.co/oDl8ukP5oN
This idea of bursaries from the MCA, MP, WR, Governor, etc, is a political ploy to keep Kenyans in a servitude position relative to politicians. Consolidate all the cash, direct it to schools and make education free in Kenya.
Ruto was given a Carte Blanche by the Gen-Zs to reset everything, but bungled it. He should have reconstituted a lean cabinet of 14 composed of non-political experts, slashed the salaries of top government officials and banned first class air travel for government officials.
Out now! Kenya and the Politics of a Postcolony by Prof Nasong’o examines the governance and politics of Kenya since independence with a particular focus on the betrayal by the political class of the aspirations of anticolonial nationalism #AnthemPress#Kenya#AfricanPolitics
President Ruto blew up the opportunity to demonstrate seriousness in responding to the Gen-Z demands. He could have constituted a lean cabinet of 14 composed of new faces of experts in each portfolio. Why recycle 6 out of 11 appointees? Why 56% from the same community?
Interesting how a KJ who satarized Moi turns out to be a Kariuki Chotara of the Zakayo epoch... wallowing in power and wealth changes character that much? Or is it the former that shows one's true character?
