It is now official that the GOK is facing a cash crunch and one of the chief reasons is the huge size of government brought about by the new constitution. http://www.nation.co.ke/...8/-/r8f0h7/-/index.html
What should be the way forward? Do we eat the humble pie and amend the constitution to whittle down the high number of government institutions by amending the constitution? As it is, things are only going to get worse. Tinga, nusu mkeka. that's when all these machida's started. remember the ministries growing by double? to massage some ego? equal partner b/s? @Harry, there was a day Uhuru was campaigning and he said that we should stop looking at the rear mirror all the time otherwise we might cause an accident. This was in reply to people who kept saying we should vote RAO because he had done a lot in the past. He insisted the best thing we need to talk about is progress. And Ruto used to punctuate his every sentence with 'taking this country forward' Forward is not in the past, Nope. Now using their analogy, we wont solve this country's problems by always looking back at who caused the problems we are going through. Every time a Jubilee politician defends a current problem with 'It was caused by RAO' or 'even RAO/Kalonzo/Weta or whoever did not fix it when he was in govt' I feel mad. Why? The reason that they did fix it is the whole point that they were not voted. The whole point was they get in and fix the issues. Its almost three years now. Looking behind the rear mirror every time a problem is pointed out will cause a serious and/fatal accident to the country. I am more interested in listening and interrogating how the govt is doing to solve the issues than who caused the problems. I always pay attention and highlight those that makes sense to me. I cant remember who said that "You haven't failed until you find someone to blame" That is my point. The duo need to highlight more on what is being done and cut us the slack on what RAO did not do. That's why we did not vote him in the first place; because he did not do, or we thought he cant do, what we expect them to do. I agree with you but remember you must always look back on what went wrong in order to fix the present and the future. i.am.back!!!!

I guess they looked at themselves when drafting the manifesto and went like, "who are we kidding?".
Jubilee are in power because of ICC and on handling Bensouda, they have scored an A+. Kali sana, a lot of effort towards ICC, some aspiring politician should take advantage of Ababus motion and collect 1 million signatures for a referendum to cut the so called state officers heavy pays and allowances but not to pay the teachers but to increase money towards the counties. With the current situation in the country this can just take one day for the 1m signatures.

sasa kama wanao consumu ni wengi, na wanao produsi ni wachache, maana yake nini, tutaendelea kuomba hela nje na kukopa hela nje ili tuwalishe ...

 its a gluttony race, Now CIC wants its term to be extendedQuote: There is also the publication of the Parliamentary Pensions (Amendment) Bill, which reduces the period of entitlement to pensions by MPs from two terms to one term.
It also reduces the age entitled to pension by MPs from 45 years to 40 years, 10 years below the entitlement age for the rest of the public service, and also proposes to raise the minimum monthly pension of Sh100,000.
what was our debt levels during the moi years. especially the 90's. Whats the point of a thriving economy that benefits only the 10% with the 90% expected to foot the bill
