Re: GEMA MET YESTERDAY TO PLOT GEMA’S FUTURE-What a Coincidence!!!!!!!!!
Let kikuyu stand by their own intead of involving other tribes who never benefited during Kenyatta rein despite their active
participation during Mau Mau fight. The so call Gema is a small
population compares to other tribes in kenya who want change
through Majimbo. There is noway kenyans can accept to be ruled by these greedy people who only care about themselves.
Kenyans need their own jimbo inorder to use their regional resources for their development.The centralised form of government is what has been other regions to be under developed since independence.Why put a minister to develop
Nairobi alone?There are many towns which need special attention as well. Kibaki is only keen to develop Niarobi and
central province to make his kikuyu tribe to continue taking
lion’s share of our national budget.This is the reason why kenyans should ask for majimbo system of government.
Kenyans should know that it is Kibaki who designed the economic system which has only promoted development
in central province right after Tom Mboya ‘s murder.Kenya
should think twice about majimbo unless they want to be
prisoners in their country.These few people enjoying the economic power in kenya will not leave leadership easily.Kenyans
should demand their economic and social rights now.
