Ladies and gentlemen, the people who:
1. Have balkanized Kenya along tribal lines in a desperate attempt to get power, are promising us “A United Nation where tribe doesn’t matter and every Kenyan is valued. The people who have promised to isolate Central region are promising an “inclusive leadership”.
2. Are funded by the very corrupt tenderpreneur and drug lords are promising a “Government of, by, and for the people…a government you can trust”. The men who encouraged their governors to loot the counties dry are promising to protect devolution and put an end to corruption.
3. Are on record fighting the empowerment of their own are promising us “A Caring Nation where no one sleeps hungry”. The guys who messed NHIF are promising Universal Healthcare. People under whose reign the free primary education almost came to a halt want us to believe they’ll avail free secondary and tertiary education.
4. Have an history scaring away foreign investors and oppressing the local ones are promising ‘An equal opportunity nation where economic growth favors everyone’. Can you imagine the man who was accused of soliciting bribe from Dominion Farm promising to empower all farmers and entrepreneurs?
5. Who uproot railways and ‘burn’ roads promising a “modern infrastructure”. The men and women who are opposed to giving electricity to low income earners are now promising reliable energy supply to all.
6. Frown at international visits and dismiss bilateral trade agreements between Kenya and US (for instance) are promising ” a vibrant foreign policy”
The saddest part is that we have Kenyans who’ll sing tibim to the above false promises. Now you see why I weep for my country.
