We deserve “A Better Place” to nurture our families, educate our kids, capture opportunities, and pursue our happiness. Each Kenyan deserves the right to have a fair shot at an opportunity, a chance to work hard and be rewarded for his or her hard work, fairly. Opportunities must be available for any Kenyan to compete…not get handed with a silver platter, but compete.
I am glad to have the honor and the blessing of being a civic educator and a provider of solutions for Kenyans at Home and right here in the Diaspora. We are the change that we seek as Kenyans, and as such, being familiar with the one thing (Leadership Integrity Excellence)–that could improve our living, economic, socio-political conditions–is the antidote that we all need to win our future and that of generations of our children, at Home and in the Diaspora in the years to come. We must know about and understand the impact of the leaders in Kenya whom many of us have chosen to worship despite the existence of great ills such as corruption, tribalism, greed, economic and political disenchantment, poverty, hunger, disease, gender inequity, healthcare issues, etc.
Some among you are looking for change; change does not just happen, we have got to have leaders who can inspire and motivate us to change. The existence of this parity along with knowing what ails us (kikulacho ki nguoni mwako) is what grows a nation. That is why I am running for office to lead you here in the diaspora and in Kenya towards the change that we have been praying for and longing for.
We have been independent for 49years and with very little to show for it. The cost and ease of doing business in Kenya is terrible, education at the primary, secondary and tertiary levels is a laughing stock, hunger is killing, agriculture is retarded, lands are growing ever marginalized and the leaders who enslave you are the ones who have convinced you that they fight for you. Corruption is killing our economy, our national debt as a function of GDP is something you ought to be scared of right now, at 47%. At 50%, Kenya is in real trouble.
We have legitimate issues in the Diaspora that have not been addressed. We have Constitutional Issues that negatively impact us. We have valid reasons to require a single voice, united, as a strong development focused Diaspora. We have been prejudiced by our inability to vote for our leaders (if at all we will vote). This is bad. Kenyans in the Diaspora are being taxed without representation. We need the services of government right here in the Diaspora. We need so many things and we face so many problems with very little help forthcoming from our own diplomatic missions. We need a strong voice as a united Diaspora, and we need someone to unite us and champion for our causes and our issues. We need a leader to carry our demands and place them fairly and squarely before the decision makers. We need a light for Kenya. You need Kenyatta for President of Kenya in 2012/13. I am all yours and will always be yours.
So my call to all of you is to wisen up, grow up and stop being branded oranges, wipers, jogoo’s, Ameru for Raila, Martha this, Wamalwa that, Ruto this…let us fix the problems which ail us. We can demand good leadership by having great leadership that is sensitive to the needs of not just Kenyans in the Diaspora but also Kenyans at home. We need a leader with a vision, a dynamic platform for Kenya; we need a leader who is transformative. We need a leader who will make Kenya “A Better Place.” We need a TEAM for Kenya. We need Team Kenya for Kenya, 2012/13.
Wake up and smell the coffee. There is work to be done, and it requires leaders with a vision, leaders who can stand their ground and not blow up sunshine up your butt just to get your vote and then vanish away. I hope that you all learned something, I certainly did.
God bless you all, and God bless Kenya. Cheers.
George Kenyatta Muumbo
Candidate for President and Commander-IN-Chief
The Republic of Kenya, 2012/13
Yes, and at the end of the turnel there is light. Yes forget the current political leaders and their parties of conviniences, With the spirit of our new constitution, wisdomed young and educated kenyans wake up and take positions of leadership and emancipate us from colonial and corruption yoke as exhibited by current and past regimes. Thats why your parents educated you in honour of change. For how long shall we (parents and children) keep on complaining about kenya’s leadership, we support KDDC to bring a new dawn for kenyans and forget the past. Ouucho!
Open Letter to Kenya,
I was standing there, when i saw the tongue turn smoke, when i saw words and time move apart, when kikuyu, kamba, luo, kalenjin, luhya, kisii, craved for more smoke.
I was standing there, when she suckled a dead breast, when they slept on ashes, when they ate from the ground, when the wise, the rich, the poor and the rest became one, to crave for more smoke.
I was standing there, when rape became oxygen, when sodomy turned rossy, when fingers turned sausage on the roadsides, when houses became firewood, all for passing smoke.
I was standing there, when IDP, PEV, ICC, OTP and all came up. I am no more standing, i know, i want, i crave, i embrace, i love, i like, i urge, i need, i want 1. I crave for 1 Nation, 1 Kenya, 1 tribe, 1 voice, 1 thought, 1 idea, 1 breath, let us be 1.
I will not stand there, i will take action, i will hold a flame of peace, i will vote out cravers of smoke, appetizers of hatred, stomachs of greed, i will vote them out. I will not stand there, until i preach my Kenya’s anthem, i will not stand there.
Kenya is a tribe for me, Kenya is peace for me, Kenya is me for me, Kenya is Kenya without me, I see a better Kenya now, I see a better Kenya tomorrow, I see the Kenya i want….aaaaaaaaaah, so proud to be Kenyan!!!!!!!!!!!
Yours Kenyan
Mzee Mwau.
