People,

I have always wondered what next after all the liberation Kenya has undergone since independence.But one thing bothers me a lot. Who will guarantee economic liberation for all Kenyans?We have gone political liberation until the other day when Kibaki wanted to appoint public officials arbitrarily, he met the full force of the people rescinding his decision and eating humble pie.

Now have we ever wondered how we can achieve the same.

How do we ensure that those who can not afford food still must eat as a government?

How do we ensure that those who can not afford housing are still housed?

How do even ensure that those who can not afford to pay for electricity but which they must use get the same paid for them?

Are we going to say we are fully capitalist of partial socialist to ensure everyone gets what he/she is supposed to get irrespective of their capacity and ability to get the same with finances

How does the government plan to carter for basic needs for people who can not afford them in a fully Capitalist economy?

The government must be forced to guarantee the equality of all citizens regardless of religion,gender,culture,demographic disposition or otherwise even if we achieve political liberation the above can easily course discontent and rebellion against the government.

Statistics have always shown that some 10% of Kenyans own 90% of Kenya’s wealth.How then is the government expected to deal with this in equality?

Some legislation should be enacted that the government at all times need to fully guarantee equality to all their citizens: basically, in the case of Kenya,that no one shall go hungry/nor sleep in the cold for whatever reason, and if so happens the government is held accountable for the same.If this was in place,then we would not be having IDPs as of now.

For me this is what any prospective presidential candidate must address and urgently

Kenyans must demand for the recognition of this right and for which the government must be held accountable
