Fellow Kenyans,
Nope appeals to all Kenyans from all walks of life to realize that just sitting there praying, hoping and wishing that Kenya can be better wont take the country forward. It hasn’t worked for the last 45 years. It will not work today. Time to lament about everything that is wrong with our beloved country is just but over.
Parliament since independent has been a symbol of national oppression in Kenya. The 10th parliament has been but a disaster. It has proved to be the greatest and the most lethal enemy of Kenyans’ today. This can be changed, can be changed now and the time to act is now. Being the supreme authority in making the laws, this parliament has miserably failed in its obligations. Kenyans sent those men and women to that house primarily to make laws. Today the parliament has deliberately refused to provide leadership in every front that directly afflicts Kenyans.
Key ones being:
- Draught and Food security
- Youth unemployment
- Crime and general security
- Justice on perpetrators of post election violence
- Truth Justice and Reconciliation Commission
- Environmental protection (Mau complex issue)
- Legal, Electoral, Constitutional and Political reforms
- Fight against corruption (KACC)
- Implementation of Agenda Item no 4 (Land reforms & Historical Injustices)
- CDF utilizations
- Fight against impunity ……………the list is endless
Parliament’s agenda must be made Kenyan agenda. This calls first for urgently sending all the current MPs’ packing in the shortest possible time. Kenya must be for the Kenyans masses. A genuine change in every aspects of governance is now what Kenyans aspire for. Time for that change is now.
It must be understood by all sane Kenyans that Kenya belongs to all Kenyans. Those foolishly riding on backs of Kenyan poor, thriving on Kenyans sweat and dangerously sucking their blood must now be made aware that Kenya belongs to all Kenyans and that the writing is on the wall.We must take charge of our destiny as Kenyans. This is our time. This is our moment.God Bless Kenya.Lawrence Kamau MachariaChairman, NOPE
