Why enough is enough:We will not allow the bloated 40 member cabinet

During the beginning of this year(2008) Kenyans took a path less traveled by the civilized beings.We are ashamed and confounded of that ugly past.

In essence it happened so that our tribes men may enjoy power and by so doing somehow extend wealth to us.We Hope.Therefore when they incited us, we thought by following their words we will get to the promised land flowing with honey and milk. We killed our neighbors, Raped, Destroyed property and displaced the ‘foreigners’. I hate to see those ugly images (www.tafutabiz.com/KenyaViolence.htm). Let it never happen again.

The truth is now with us. Whatever we fought for was our self proclaimed leaders’ interests.

The IDPs are yet to be taken care of, indeed we will borrow some Kshs 34 billion to settle them, never the less no one seem to worry because the coalition is in the making. Infact we are going to have 40 ministers up from the already bloated 34. Regardless of the rise in basic commodities and astronomical inflation rate. Ofcourse each minister will have at least two limos, bodyguards, other privileges and untold amount ofallowances. Each  minister  will  have  a  Permanent  Secretary  and an Assistant Minister or two, each with similar privileges.

Today and ordinary MP pockets Kshs 800,000 per month, Assistant Minister at least Kshs 950,000, a Minister Kshs 1.1m. As tax payers we need to see returns. Why should we pay all this to single individuals whose only work is to Politic in funerals and make noise about everything/anything under the sun. What is their work? Are they realy ‘Leaders’?

Here comes a pertinet question at this point; Who is a leader?

In my opinion, a leader is one that inspires, gives direction, a servant of the people, dedicated and focused. Whatever the case we may not have many leaders today.Not in our parliament. The parliament has guys that are pursuing their selfish, gluttonous ambitions. They want your every coin in the name of tax whereas they don’t pay tax like any other Kenyan. Now who are these people? What do they represent?

What is the way forward Kenya?
