Like in South Africa or Zimbabwe where they stayed longer and enslaved Africans for longer periods? In SA blacks were confined in homelands/villages and its only now that they are demanding their lands back. At least in Zimbabwe they had a true leader Mugabe who got their lands back.

Now you have outed your beef! Election hangovers.

Dude! On matters elections, you should be cajoling masukuma to school you. Any election is only fair to the winner and no election in the world over is ever free and fair.

You may have heard of the cliche; it is not the voters who count, it is the counters who vote'. Are you old enough to remember Bushes (W and Jeb) Vs Al Gore? Never mind....did you observe Florida and Georgia 2weeks ago - those were your mzungu imps.

Elections is a contest of lunatics. The more potent one wins, but the general rule is to unify the vote and the voice post election. Uhuru has done that admirably but you seem to be an outlier.

Delink yourself from electioneering and outcomes thereof. Simply, get a life!

I think the reason Mwafrika always wants instant gratification and cannot plan for the future is because of how we evolved.

Muzungu evolved in Europe where they have brutal winters. To plan for winter the cavemen had to store food while it was available. They had to collect firewood and store it for use in the winter or else they would never survive sub zero temperatures. Its difficult to hunt and fish in the winter because lakes are frozen. Those incapable of planning for winter died early (natural selection)
Therefore the concept of delaying gratification and planning ahead is ingrained in their DNA and in their culture.

Mwafrika peasant never had to worry about planning for winter. If he found food he just ate it. When food became scarce in one area, he simply migrated to another. And food was often available in abundance. Until the last 50 years, there were wild bananas and wild fruit trees growing all over the place.

This inability to delay gratification and plan for the future is why cities like Nairobi are so poorly planned and are a infrastructural nightmare.

The first step in solving a problem is to understand what the problem is. What is the root cause of the problem and how it can be addressed. It is a bitter pill to swallow. But as Africans we have to first admit that we have a problem.

All that kujipanga nonsense that masukuma is pushing is the kind of short term thinking and selfishness that has been the bane of Africans.

As was said on anther thread, Jomo Kenyatta lived in London for 20 years. He observed all the problems of a growing city and how they can be addressed. When he came back to Kenya he could have acted like a patriot and applied the lessons he learned from observing the city of London grow through problems. He could have set aside land for proper expansion of the city. Instead he apportioned the land to himself and his family and his friends while also grabbing beach plots in Mombasa. Now both cities are a complete mess. Thats what I mean by greed and instant gratification.

You obviously don't understand evolution even though you claim to. You are grossly ignorant. So let me explain to you.

DNA by itself rarely changes in one human being. What happens is that people with characteristics that allow them to survive are the ones who live long enough to pass their characteristics to the next generation.

So if you are a poor planner and cannot plan for the bitterly cold winter, you will die by age 20. You will likely not pass your genes to the next generation because even your children will have no food in winter.

If you are good at planning for winter, you will live to 50 and above. You will pass on your planning genes to the next generation. Within a few generations defective DNA will be eliminated from the gene pool. Its called natural selection. Go pick up a form one biology book so you don't expose your sheer ignorance here.

And the notion that the queen owns all of the UK exists only in theory. You can purchase a house anywhere in the UK and the queen will not suddenly evict you. Unlike here where the royal families like the kenyattas literally took land away from peasants.

During the feudal days, its true that the royal families owned everything. But they realized long ago that such a system is not sustainable. Mwafrika does seem to learn. We have seen the detrimental effects of land grabbing and looting. Yet we still support these thieves and defend them. masukumas solution is that everyone must jipanga.

Please... you cannot teach me about evolution kaka... yes... that's natural selection! the problem you have is thinking that the trait you see exhibiting itself is a result of genetics rather than memes! Planning is a product of human culture not genetics! Your simple brain confuses correlation and causation! You suffer from drawing assertions from simplistic transitive relationships. it goes something like this
- A Black man differs from a White man because of a genetic difference
- A black man is a bad planner
- it means that the genetic difference that differentiates the white man from the black man is also responsible for better planning on the part of the white man.
