Kenya's Elections
Kenyans have decided to set an example to the rest of the world
for which its leaders failed in the 2007/2008 elections violence that marred
after the disputed elections. The memories are vivid and my articles (2008) of
lament remain unedited and for which I will post to my blog
joshuaboitt@blogspot.in
Our leaders divided the nation into tribal lines ..a coalition is the only bridge but the truth
behind every mind and heart for my people nation comes first. A trend that the
new constitution needs to address and the national cake be divided along each
and every tribe that live under my mother Kenya peace Kenya peace!
My heart goes to the 15 Kenyans who lost their lives in wake
of the historic day that Kenyans went to the polls, may the perpetrators of the
heinous killings be brought to book and lets heal the nation and unite into one
Kenya.’ Pamoja kama njiwa wawili’ ,together like two doves.
May solace reigns forth in this times and lets merge with
the rising South Africa and the rest of the Bric nations its never too late to
mend the rank and file and bring them on board, for the greater East Africa
that will bring peace once more to Somalia, Sudan and other nation a model to
emulate beyond the boarders of Africa.
The government failed to bring truth and reconciliation
commission to solve the pent up issues of tribalism and now Hague decides the
case who will heal the wounds, then
The issues at hand the economy in shambles, the price rise
and inflation bites the common loyal man who will help them, truly we vote and
still it’s a vicious cycle of politicians who have been in politics half of
their lives, may a new dawn of the new constitution be a platform for change
cater for all the people of Kenya.
Regional Conflict
Alqaeda and the Alshabaab, the separatist in the coastal
region in the Town Mombasa have become a wall to peace and effort s ,urgent need to resolve the
issues and clear the region from Terror and peace reign. East Africa is the
Gateway to Central Africa which will open up trade routes and develop the region,
the International communities have a scheme afoot to ameliorate on the pent up issues
resolve the conflict that have engulfed not only the region but also the entire
world, with piracy in the horn Africa on the rise, one solution, give the youth
education and introduce an alternative to pastoralist with irrigation and crop farming
that will be an alternative source of food..
Post –poll Alliances be of a better future of the country
rather than scoring political points and holding on to power.
Who cares!, Kenyans
do the politicians don’t ,cant wait to see the youth being brought onboard to
develop the nation ,every day the toil and work ,the efforts unseen for they
are given the opportunity to exploit their talents, give then education ,open a
door for opportunities and send them abroad to study and add knowledge bank to
the kids for future posterity.
Unfulfilled campaign pledges for the last decade and its
time make meaningful pledges and abide by the constitution and let every
hardworking Kenyan be given a chance to contribute to the development .There
is a huge gap between the real issues on
the ground and those in the August House and now its time to connect ,blue print issues and matters that are at
hand on the ground. The media in Kenya a sleeping wildebeest ,it’s a time for it wake up and stop dividing
the nation into two lines, set the agenda and call a ‘jembe a jembe’ while on
the other hand the government free the media, from the state organs.
Political delusion are over and the ballot has won the day
bullets silent, Kenya has risen amid the shadows of 2007, the blatant selling
of advert spaces and being eagles rather that turtle doves, hope to see a
strong media that will not hunt for cake from politicians rather the issues at
hand in villages and bring it to international media .They should sell the development
issues to interaction media rather that buying local news from wire agencies
and giving people recycled news and views.
Thanks to the new constitution that will restore democracy
to Kenya and its neighbors may floow suit, but the new posts of governor and
senator surely one seat should have been created thus the introduction was
timeless for selfish gains ,Kenya is such a small country and needed not all
this post rather the effect will be felt a year into the new era, and
electorate will feel the pinch ,those who introduced it either had altered
motives or were ill adviced,back to the drawing board, federalism fails in a
small democracy ..
From India With love,Peace ! Kenya
