We make life very easy for politicians in Kenya. In the west, if you pulled such a stunt or any other move deemed to be against 'the people' then you can kiss your political career goodbye. Have you seen the kind of stuff that makes politicians resign or be hounded out of office in the west? In Kenya, a politician doesn't even need to think before saying or doing anything. We forget too soon, forgive too fast and sell out too cheaply!!!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
