My thoughts...

1. Security - Overhaul the entire internal security apparatus. De-tribalize the Defence forces ranks. Institute a generational shift in the Police and invest in new equipment for the force.

2. Energy - High cost of energy has led to high cost of doing business. Restructure petroleum procurement process. Ensure Turkana Oil proceeds are invested into locals as well as the nation. Develop local expertise in Petroleum technologies. Invest in renewable sources. Remove KPLC monopoly and change its top management.

3. Corruption - Prosecute the well known cases and recover stolen assets. Publicize wealth declaration of Govt officials. Implement ethics and integrity law to the full.

4. Higher Education - This is a mess. Build strong technical institutions. Stop converting Polytechnics into university colleges offering linguistics and anthropology. Cancel university charters awarded to political cronies of previous regime.

5. Nationalism - Equitable distribution of national income, public appointments and development priorities. Disband Kibunjia's NCIC. Promote peace, national unity and cultural integration. This should be the work of the President who is the symbol of national unity.

Security:
- Allow police officers to serve in their home counties but leave the option for them to work anywhere else in the country if they so wish. This will eliminate the need to build houses as they can settle on their inherited land. It will also reduce crime as the people will be very comfortable approaching them to report crime as he will be considered as one of the locals. This is the way its done in the advanced countries the world over, why not in kenya
- Merge the AP and regular police as their roles generally converge and having both doesn't make any sense. Create a strong CID unit that can play the role the FBI plays in the US (dealing with complex criminal activities, organised crime, drug trafficking etc) the regular police can focus on petty crimes and the maintainance of law and order as well as being the first response.
- Devolve the role of chairing the county security committee to the governor. Also open the county head of police job to competitive applicants
- Transfer the operational authourity at the county level to the county head of police. The holder of such an office should be held accountable for all actions done under his command whether he got orders from above or not.

A long plea for free.things, there are very well paid doctors, they never strike, strike but they are not necessarily on a salary, they are consultants or in private practice, i can show you a doctor who gets paid as much as he wants and charges as much as he wants. You choose the free one and want him paid more, how and by whom?

And what are you all willing to give in return?

All of the above sounds like a coterie of Middle Income wanna be's "Tu naomba serikali" wish list.

I want the next president to take RESEARCH very seriously. Researchers want funding to solve the complex diseases and improve food security. By some simple genetic tests medication can be prescribed which will work better.
That forensic lab project should also be completed.
