Continuation............................ Shameful unresolved social problems; 50 years down the line

Social problems are not yet resolved by previous governments, people are living in hardships to sustain their families and even to sustain their own stomach, difficult living standard is challenge to majority of  people.

In every election people woke up early to chose their leaders who they think will help to uplift their living standards, after they get to power things returns to business as usual. Someone may ask why is it business as usual? Most people chose leaders because of what he/she possesses in our society, in short they go for money not on credentials, then the same people will start crying they are neglected by their leaders.Who is to be blamed for what is happening in our political arena? Simply its electorates who elect them to power.

In 1963 their was a pillar to eradicate poverty which even today is a pillar because it's still a challenge that has not yet been resolved. The same problem which was there in 1963 is the same we are fighting till today. The countries which we were together in terms of development in 1963 have made a great step in terms of development as most of them are highly industrialized.

People should not regret because they are ragged behind in terms of development it's their mistake that they keep repeating after every elections, this is because for every country to develop it must have leadership of high integrity, leaders who are not corrupt who are able to put interest of people in hearts.

Most Kenyans earns less than a dollar per day which  is a challenge to cater for their basics needs, most people are desperate with life which leads them to involve themselves in criminal activities and others in to drugs . This is a great challenge affecting many youths especially in Mombasa, this a challenge that needs all stakeholders to  bond together to find a lasting amicable solution.

Employment is another issue which is affecting our country every year students are graduating in our universities, their is no market to absorb thousands of youths, government has not structured good mechanism to address this challenge ,now the problem is worsening as we progress now we have a millennium goals which i don't think we will achieve it with all this challenges affecting our nation.

Now we have vision 2030 which have its pillars which are supposed to be achieved in that year, if nothing is done to address social problems that are affecting us as nation it will just be a dream.

The new government should address social challenges that are affecting our nation if it's determined to reach Kenya to its dream and aspirations.

People should now open the eyes and see things in a perspective by choosing their leaders wisely and realize anyone can become a leader regardless of his/her background and it's through this  we will bring our country in prosperity.

Cord outcome solution in Naivasha

Former vice president Kalonzo Musyoka will be back to parliament, this came after deep discussion of cord elected leaders in Naivasha.
This means that one leader will have to sacrifice his ambition to give path for Kalonzo,but the cord did not say who will step for him.Kitui central MP where Kalonzo represented in past decades said he was not aware of him stepping down and nothing has been communicated to him.
If this is going to be effected Kalonzo is going to be leader of minority in parliament and former Prime Minister on his side will champion outside parliament.



Do you support cord decision

Kenya shameful unsolved problems since indipendence

It's devastating for our country 50 years after independence people are still killing each other east, west is bloodshed, for along time now the security of our country has been disturbing as terrorist have taken the room and space to terrorize kenyans.
Back in our history our fore-fathers fought greatly for our independence having in mind their rights and what they were fighting for will be solved, others lost their lives , others injured and mostly who survived were detained, starting with land problems which has been taken away by the white man, after 1963 the government which took over never addressed those challenges, thats why the way we are living today with fear without knowing who will evades us are all fruits of failed first governments. This is why illegal grouping has emerged past decades starting with Mungiki, Mombasa Republican Council which have turned against it's own people. 
In 2006 Mungiki killed many innocent bloods Kenyans in name of fighting for their rights, MRC has been alleged to involve with itself with criminal acts which have led to death of innocent Kenyans. All this groups without forgetting Sabaout land Defence what it did in Mt Elgon are memories many people will hate to recall.
This groups has emerged because of land problems and since independence all governments escaped to handle this issue which is very critical. Now what government did is to fight back and sent Armed forces and GSU to counter reactions of this groups, what emerged after they were sent to Mt Elgon, all testimonies we heard was  how they dehumanized people starting with women and the worse men what they went through their hands but the question is, did they came up with the solution to curb emergence of such groups? did the government resolved land problems? bearing in mind MRC emerged recently.
The other issue is tribalism which is the biggest challenge in our national integration of our country which means even if we enjoyed favorable election period doesn't mean this problem is resolved, but all this challenges started when we gained our independence our leaders didn't foster togetherness to rebuild our nation regardless of our diverse backgrounds, Our fore-fathers brought all this animosity that people have which continues to bite each and every time we have elections.The past governments has failed us to bring people together also our politicians has extended this challenge by playing their tribal cards.
Security also is a challenge especially those which are mitigated by politicians to harm others basing on their politics of interests starting with what happened to Bungoma and now Mandera issue with all  has been alleged to have politicians under cover of it. Government must take appropriate actions to all those who are behind tribal wars.
All this are challenges which are yet not resolved till today, Kenya has impressive resources our independence was greatly won, all of us might have different idea but we want the same thing a better- Kenya, people must open their eyes and know we want leaders who can deliver not basing on their name but on how he/she  can forge us forward.





Keep following me i unearth for you challenges that are not yet resolved till today.

Men desparation with life after campus: but their is hope

For recent years youth in the country have be always been promised to be the leaders of tomorrow and they will be created job opportunities which up to now no response is made to address this issue of unemployment.
Last Friday on Easy FM they had posted on their face book wall how campus guys pass through when they are searching for attachment which make them to indulge in relationships with sugar mummies in all just to go easy with life.
I followed the discussion and most guys they claimed  they go through hardships to get internship compared to ladies as i will quote one who said " I myself all ladies who we finished together have gotten internships" The other question which was emerging, is which criteria  is used to offer internships to many organizations.
The most emerging questions is, is young men have no space in the job market? Most of them in social sites claim they have nothing to give compared to ladies, it's a deep discussion on space of a young man in the society we are living today.
Many young men have lost hope with life as many indulge in criminal activities others are drug addicts due to unemployment. Everybody was crying for a space of a girl child in the society but now it's opposite a boy child is neglected.
Every day in newspapers classics young men are looking for sugar mummies. Even if it's personal it raises a lot of questions on our moral standards. Now young men you are supposed to know life is struggle you should fight for it.
Let all young men not look easy way with life, even if job market may be unfavorable let them indulge in youth development programmes  or look in ways to fight with life the best thing is never lose hope keep trying success is not automatic you must work extra hard.
The job market must also be fair with men and ladies while giving internship to campus students.

Wonders of Kenyan football

For recent time Kenya national team have been deteriorating on it's performance  only managing to get 3 points on World cup qualifiers. Starting with high football officials, fans and everybody apart of  few, others they were very optimistic that they will head to Brazil
What makes me to say there are wonders is, it's only in Kenya where unexpected is expected how do you expect performance without hard work? let's not blind ourselves with hopes which are not there.
Everybody now is crying we have no strikers who can score which is true but what is Kenya Football Federation doing? What i only heard from them is we tried when we were beaten by Nigeria in our homeland.

I want to get your attention by asking a question how did Zambia became the champions of Africa? did they became through magic?  they prepared psychologically physically and everything after the plane clash which killed their players, the great step they did is they came up with mechanism to revive their football. Federation of Zambia is led by a person who played and understand the importance of football.

 This is very critical and if nothing is done we will continue with poor performance let the officials understand success do not come through magic it come through hard work.

This is not time to blame each other but is the time for all stakeholders to get to serious work .
Secondly it's only in Kenya where football is led through interest with no solution let all stakeholders have passion instead of hobby.
The other big issue is it's only in Kenya where coach is changed like clothes now how do you expect performance?
We have a new coach now let federation give him time to search for quality players who will fit on our team not basing on how you know with who but basing on what you can deliver.
Let the coach go to" mashinani" to search for players let him leave Nairobi and through this we will get what we are lacking.

The other thing is it's only in Kenya where they prepare for 5-6 days expecting to perform but how with players playing their individual game players need to know each other on the field they need adequate time to practice together now let the stakeholders come together and look for solution even if they will be calling players month before the game.

Lastly it's only in Kenya where they don't organize friendly games to give their players exposure and experience and expecting results and expressing optimism to beat Nigeria and  go to Brazil but how can we beat them with all there exposure and experience of playing international matches? before they came to Kenya they had played with Mexico what about us?
It's time to look for solution if not it will always be a stupid dream to go to world cup.
