The news of Alliance between DP Ruto and David Ndii and other “Kibaki Economists” was big news last Sunday. This is none of my business.
But again both Ndii and DP are national figures and politics is our business.
I wanna say something

With all due respect to the supporters of WSR, He has not been a model citizen of Kenya. We all yearn for patriotic leadership.
We are currently crying and suffering because our country has been auctioned to the foreigners - esp China treat us like their colony

Patriotism is where a country comes first. Patriotic leaders rally their people to sacrifice for the country so that we can bequeath a better nation to our children.
And redeem our shattered image in Africa where we are always regarded as incapable of self rule.

We aspire for justice, where rule of law reigns supreme. Where every person is equal before the law and crimes are punished according to the law.

On the understanding the justice is the foundation of a peaceful, stable and prosperous nation

We aspire for a nation where hard work pays and becomes a culture. On the understanding that true national prosperity comes from honest enterprise and long lasting investments, guided by independent regulations.
As opposed state manipulated economy and tenderpreneurship

An honest interrogation of the DP’s political profile does not inspire hope. It sounds like thesis on “what ails Kenya.”
The catalogue of allegations against him are too much for a Presidential candidate of a respectable nation. Only that WE ARE NOT A RSPECTABLE NATION.

Why would Ruto be looking for new faces for his campaign drive? I submit its an admission that he has an image crisis. That his CV has a blemish and needs a political face mask – in the name of Kibaki era economist. They are now crafting a façade of economic revolution

The common defense is that he has never been convicted. Which is lame. The presumption of innocent until proven guilty is a principle of law that is meant to PROTECT THE INNOCENT.
In Kenya, we use it to protect the guilty – the rich and powerful. We use it to defeat justice

The DP launched his political career from the Kanu militia group called YK’92. So much national wealth was wasted to fund a youthful group of people to support Kanu and Moi.

They sponsored massacre of people in Rift Valley to cause widespread scare

In return they were given a blank cheque by Moi to kill anybody who was an obstacle. They were allowed to grab any available public asset and sell it for a song.

This when DPs close colleague Cyrus Jirongo milked NSSF dry through tenderpreneurship

The 500 shillings note was printed amid serious inflation caused by massive looting of the economy. This note was informally named TYCOON Jirongo.

After further inflation, a higher denomination of 1,000 was produced. This was called Pattini after the prime thief of the time

Our economy between 1990 and 2000 was just wastage, state corruption and political violence.

Whether we like it or not this is the DP’s political school. This is what built him financially and politically. That is ILLEGAL WEALTH, TRIBAL POLITICS and POLITICAL VIOLENCE

This waste of national wealth is why we don’t have schools. Is the reason we don’t have dispensaries and hospitals in the country.

Is the reason corruption flourishes in Kenya, because we created a culture of greed and political patronage rather than merit and hard work

It hurts me. YES AM VERY JEALOUS. That a person who has been in the frontline killing our country would turn out to be a beneficiary of the best brains around

The products of the good education system which is no longer possible because of his kind of politics

I pity Kenya. That all it takes to become a leader is to subvert political systems to amass wealth. Then use the money to bribe supporters with churches donations and wheelbarrows.
And “sponsor” the best academics to rewrite your history as a champion of BOTTOMS-UP ECONOMICS

My predictions for the alliance - NEXT
