You can gnash your teeth like a rodent, but come to
think of it!
They say we don’t know what we’ve
got until its gone, what about we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it
arrives ?I think the KUSEMA NA KUTENDA slogan is still much better than the vocal
OKOA KENYA thing, especially to the common mwananchi like you and me. I know
how much it is expensive to bring down a story building that has been
generating a lot of zero income, at the thought of the much effort and force
you have input to let it stand, it pains!
However, you must realize that
the only option you have left is to either do away with it, or just do away
with it completely. Now, think beyond whatever you have been used to in terms
of politics and discover that opportunity you are abusing. Well, you can
scratch your head to that effect. Being stiff necked, like a faithful married man,
denies you the freedom to glance at other men’s wives outside there. Anyway, in
as much as this is not a marriage, be single and realize that there are a
number of women around town, Come-on Jubilee and Cord are the major damsels
Kenya has and you as the citizen have the choice to determine tomorrow. ‘Do not
let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace’, Dalai Lama.
I mean, must we always let our
ears to funnel the bla bla bla and blaz at political arenas, then deem our
heads to destroy and burn public property including our own TOILETS??? Then
claim of poor sanitation in the name of Flying Toilets???? Where will you dump
your HotCakes after destroying public facility??? Really??? Halloos…..Kibra…are
you there??? Oh nooo…plizzz can you stop defining stupidity with salt-price
politics.
I must say that I am impressed to
have heard the women who were bold enough to support NYS project and more so
the Devolution CS Anne Waiguru. See? They have tirelessly worked to off-load
our dumpsites and at least build public toilets to someone who is abit
senseless outside there, and the ‘Mulika mwizi’ (Adopter Lights) slum upgrading
idea just to mention a few. Don’t you prefer ‘Baba’ who teaches you to fish
than ‘Baba’ who gives you a ¼ loaf for a family of 10 and empty ‘sweet’ words
so that you are at his mercy tomorrow? Mmm…I still prefer KUSEMA Na KUTENDA. ‘Juzi Juzi ‘(recently) they came to your
hood, their TharakaNithi, if I may say,
campaigning for ID registration in turn to garner your votes come the year 20...I
don’t know.
This time round KUDOS to His
Excellency Mr. President and the Devolution CS, Anne Waiguru for what they have
achieved despite their weaknesses. No one is perfect and I know you know this! Good
works are commendable and this is the reason as to why the alleged drug dealer,
Nairobi Senator, Alias Mike Sonko and the likes could be YOUR next Mr.
President. I know you have now started gnashing your teeth like a rodent. Well,
it is not a crime.
Remember change starts with you
and me, we cannot continue eating rotten mangoes lavishly expecting good
health, we shall for sure continue complaining till wrinkles shall overwhelm
our faces. If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong
room, ‘ujaluo utakuua’. Don’t say you
miss me when it’s your fault, am gone. I must sign out this piece with these
words at least for someone to remember;
‘Sarcasm is the ability to insult idiots without them realizing it’
