Somebody give me a success story from his tenure as National chairman of KFF between 1996 and 2000 and I will vote for him

Engine

@and,pk's achievements have been outlined repeatedly. Tell us what onyonka's record is like and if impressive i'll support him

All

we may hail PK for what has happened in gatanga. But he has concentrated his efforts only in gatanga division whereas he also represents kakuzi division(Lower gatanga). Kakuzi division doesnt have an inch of tarmac.

People there lack even enough to eat. I thought he should have sank some boreholes and alleviate the problems of water. You visit schools and you will see kids sitting on logs and stones for seats. The population there have to beg to use kakuzi 'private roads' even when taking sick to the hospital in thika.

In the CDF huge allocations are given to projects in already rich Gatanga Upper.

It is all crapp when you continually feed the obese kid whereas you don't take of the dying and sick.

@ Wairegi

Which specific school are you refering to. Dont generalise,rather be specific.

Which road is impassable due to neglect. There maybe no tamac,but at least the roads have marram and are paved.

The Kakuzi location has seen more development than majority of average constituencies during PK's tenure. He is always meeting Kakuzi residents every Thursday,book an appointment with him and he will address them when he comes there this thusday.

By the way,why would Kofi Annan meet privately with Peter Kenneth????.

There is a difference between a country and a constituency what has he done for the rest of the country?

In God i trust.

@Jaina

The school i am reffering to is called mwania mbogo and it is not the only one. There is a road from Thika to Ithanga or Kaguku the only place not an inch of tarmac and the longest stretch is maintained by delmonte. On leaving the delmonte farms the roads are not done and the only luck is that they soils there are not bad.

During the rainy season Kaguku which is the Divisinal Headquators for Kakuzi Division is unreachable. Or it takes many hours to the short stretch. At least there is power now but i doubt if there had anything to PK.

I look at the projects he is doing with the CDF monies and more that 90% of this is in Upper gatanga. Whereas in Kakuzi Division only the DOs Office,CDF office.

His allocation is just skewed towards the Upper Gatanga.

Guys i think we have lost the plot here,we were discussing suitability of PK on the national platform,someone threw Richard Onyonka but could not back their thesis with tangibles. Obviously the discussion has degenerated into kyuk and anti kyuksm.

I belong to the Mt Kenya region but i sometimes get miffed by the hypocrisy of my folk when discussion tribe and nepotism. It's a blatant fact that bax has filled key parastatals and government portfolios with his people. I dont have a big problem with him picking his own for a few security related institutions and PS OP,but i have big beef with him over populating key parastatals with Mt Kenya folk. One has to be a crude hypocrite not to see that obax is an uncompromising mkabila in his appointments.

He needed to let other tribes occupy some of those parastatals and may be send his tribesmen in the boards of these institutions if he very insecure,it just doesn't look very nice,no matter how hard he tries to bring other comparables. So what do we Mlima Kenya people expect the other guys to do? pretend there is equity and there is merit at play here! It even gets worse when we keep rushing back to hide behind antikikuyism,lets be brave I mean Kalenjins would at least admit Moi is overdoing things and nothing the wider community could do to control him,whats so hard in us admiting the mzee is goofing and in an ideal scenario we should have a healthy mix of leadership in all these seats,no one will kill you,its bax appointing not the whole community,so hiding behind anti kikuyism and not admitting there is a big mistake is ridiculous.

For those with more than one toi why don't you deliver a bar of chocolote to one kid only mfululizo for a week and try discern the under current welling up in the other kid(s) at the end of the week,and this has nothing to do with them being young! so why do we expect anything different from adults with even more developed brains and emotions.....

Brrrrrr! Na kwa hayo machache nasema tuishi pamoja and lets be honest about some of these things.....back to PK and R Onyonka leadership potential

where does this leave us? We want an experienced president? someone with experience to loot from our coffers or what? There are only three people who truly know what it is to lead our country. One is RIP,two are alive - which one do we recycle?

Me and you are already giving our views on how kenya should be led,what our priorities are,and all,so why do we assume that these 'new' leaders even if they are first timers have no clue of what needs to be done? the other day someone we criticised the maasai guy - oledama - and said he has not experience,lumumba has no experience,PK has no experience,there is this fine mp in kisii land who also have no experience..... come on guys,get real!! thats why we end up recycling these looters in the name of 'experience'! No president has ever had an experience the first time he is in office..... so lets cut that crap of 'we need an experienced' president to lead us.... we only need someone with a good brain,focus and will to get things rolling. Unless you suggest we import a former president from another country. I know no MP who has ever been voted 100% by his people.... they get majority,just as the president who will be elected by people will... If you were here in 2002,you will understand that when we get a president who has the political will to do the right thing,we as a people shall support him - and more importantly,by not voting the looting class back to parliament!

Its like telling us 'no getting your own babies until you have experience in parenthood'!

Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.

Reminds me of a presidential candidate in Kenya who said handsome face doen't maketh a leader .

I know i will receive ALL THE HURLin the planet for this but,'research' shows :) that:

To be under 55 and want to be President of Kenya you must either:

1) Be Uhuru Kenyatta,or

2) Get the backing of a party with significant nation wide support

The thicker the thigh the sweeter the pie.
