Why I am convinced Jubilee Gov’t needs & necessitates failure.
Leo-Strauss political ideals (deception, religious fervor and perpetual war to control the ignorant masses) which were adopted by the Neo -Straussians are now deeply rooted in Kenya, in the core of the Jubilee administration. Its policies and ideals are solidly structured to enriched and expand a corporate Kenya comprising of few heartless persons whose interest is to get rich at all cost. Jubilee system is no longer based on performance, training and necessary skills to hire or nominate personnel to run certain state functions. The Government is totally comprised of what Jim Lobe calls “‘Right’ men to get the job done” men who are politically committed. With this extreme insistence on these ideals jubilee necessitates failure, by putting failures and rejects in places where Ethics, training and commitment is necessary. If you are in doubt take a look at these observations.
- Jubilee as extremely suppressed the natural law of competition, the drive that allows us to work hard and out win an opponent satisfactorily. All has been lost into the new tact of overemphasis on tribal dominance and alignment marred with chest thumbing and arrogance. We do not require any magnifying glass to realize that jubilee is a Kikuyu –Kalenjin entity with a few political friends who are committed to the Behind scenes of the administration. Of what essence is Kenya as a state, if one of 40,000,000 is held with exceptionalism?
- Kaimenyi failed in the docket of Education, which is now affected by excessive leakage and the quality of Education at its lowest and yet the overseer is rewarded again with a very delicate docket?
- What Merits or credentials, awards Charles Keter as a Senator a position in Petroleum if he is not sure of his position as a senator? What has he achieved as a senator other than moral support at ICC?
- Where was Mwangi Kiunjuri? His turn was over and we are still paying for the losses they incurred the last time he was in Gov’t, if you’re in doubt check the price of sugar then compare with today? He is now being given another position? Are we a nation engaged in a rewarding contest of picking and choosing a name we have heard before?
- The jubilee is again resurrecting and replicating the sins of ‘Baba’s’ Era, we might have deemed that to have been necessary then, but to have demagogues frequenting the highest office is ridiculous. The time of Barngetuny’s and Too’s is gone, and here again we have the Kutuny sprouting. This is a slap on the cheek to the people of Cherangani, who rejected him for underperformance and then he is appointed to advise the president? Really?
- Similarly, road shows, early campaigns and Harambees are taking over the State. The agenda here therefore as I perceive is to take us into a welfare state, in which handouts are used to replace service delivery and at the same time secure public support through deception. These kinds of approaches are terrible in the 21st century, especially when the ratio of literate- illiterate is still a big issue. The poor and the illiterate can be easily deceived with handouts to make poor decisions.
- The public announcement by the State should be followed by intervention with measurable results. What we see in the Jubilee administration is reactionary announcement, especially if World renowned persons are visiting. Actions taken in matters of corruption for instance, should end when recovery has been done and culprits convicted without letting them off the hook with the loot.
…..A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.
