I am with Kamau 100percent.

Lets get the numbers and move out and do the necessary.

It pains me to see idiots, bigots, thieves etc… given airtime by the media to insult us (their employers).
Its akin to shitting on the hand that feeds you.

These people shit on us day after day and brainwash some of us to do their dirty bidding.
We sometimes do it because they have got us to the point where we are so poor and desperate and hungry that we will listen to their vitriol.

Lets get these potheads out onto the streets because it can be done e.g in the countries that have been given as examples. My fav one is the philippines and the clearest pic I have in memory is the number of shoes Imelda had in her walk in shoe mansion.

We will be no worse off if we have a country wide mutiny.

As it is we are little or no better than Somalia etc…

After all we host pirates and theis commanders.

Our police and army are ineffective !

How much worse can it get ???

I support you brother.

Dear Fellow Kenya,

On Thursday Hon. Ababu Namwamba in his contribution to the ongoing debacle of who to head the HBC warned parliamentarians that they risk the public wrath if they are not careful enough and continue to squabble. He said the public may soon storm the house to express their anger against their “insensitive” so called leaders. I totally agree with Ababu on this particular warning.

Going by what we saw happening in Kibera, where the public chased away contigents of police officers and stopped Rift Valley railaway workers from repairing the vandalised part of the railway, it is possible to gang up as Kenyans and eject this indecisive fellows from State House. Philipine did it successfully. Thailand is doing it. It is called people’s power, Madagascar is the recent case. It works and it has worked in some countries. Why not in Kenya? It is time Kenyan say enough is enough and pour into the streets.

What the hell is Kibaki doing in State House when Migingo and part of Pokot district are forcefully taken away by Uganda? peope are dying of anger; Mungiki sponsored by Uhuru Kenyatta himself is transforming into rebel movement slaughtering human beings like chicken; Just a few days ago Grand Regency was given out by Kimunya and they shared the lot with the old man; the first lady was caught with pants down in a maize scandal; Kiraitu soarsafter oil deal aand get big s’sprotection; reforms process is thrown to the dogs by Kibaki and his greedy henchmen to protect executive power with the hope that Uhuru will take over; All these happens and the old man’s mouth remains cemented.

Central province voted for the old man against Raila Odinga almost to the man yet he cannot (out of human consciousness and empathy wake up from his sleep and send a message of condolence tohis people after mungiki ran rampage killinng more than 29. Othaya is a neighbor to the scene of the ugly murders. What a caresless and small hearted man we have in the name of president? I now believe that the revenge killing of innocent people in Naivasha during post-elections violence was planned right in his sitting room as Akiwumi report revealed. This old man should be haunted out of State house and taken to the Hague to wait for the remaining days of his life in jail.

Kibaki is messing the counrty to the point that he has abandoned his consitutional responsibility to the Uhuru, Saitoti and Michuki group. Kalonzo Musyoka is just a hired toolboy to do the dirty job with a dream to get “meat from hyena” come 2012. One day he will have to account for sacrificing Kenyans for the sake of VP post.

But three and a half years are just to long to endore the suffering Kenyans are going through. Kenyans need the determination like that witnessed in Kibera and Philipines for just one week the old man will wakeup from his sleep.

Removing Kibaki and this 10th parliament through any means will not succeed becuse we have hungry and beggers in parliament who will not at any time accept to go hoome voluntarily. Furthermore, Kenya has no electoral body to supervise elections and this is the tool they are using not to move a motion of no confidence against an old man. POPULAR UP-RISING is the best alternative. Kenya has reached a point where people have no hope in anybody.

If you agree with this suggestion please start convincing, sensitise and mobilise anybody within your reach. Start with your family members, relatives, friends, workmates, police and military friends and relatives, International friends, ambassadors if you can reach them, etc. THis is how it worked in Philipines and Thailand. We have also given (CC) you contact addresses of parliment, state house and this PNU spokesman-Mutua if you can write them direct.

Note that this is not about Kikuyu, Jaluo, Kamba, Western Coast, Onyango, Kamua, Mwajuma, Karua. It is about our lives and the future of our poor children. We will launch the POPULAR UPRISING soon.

Thanks,

Kamau Ngethe
