My view is that this is also lame unless you involve all kenyans especially the common man like ODM did in 2008 nothing will ever be done.
this qualifys to be another joke of the year...
please
-what percentage of kenyans know what twitter is?
-what percentage of motor vehicles owners know what twitter or youtube is.. unless you want to hoot alone in the street .
the only media that can spearhead such a process in kenya is only the mainstream media radio.TV.newspapers. do you think they can do it?
@selah
this is a very noble idea but i am sorry to have burst your bubble. such a protest can only happen where 90% of the population is of the same culture or language.
finally don't forget that in this country we always have a chance to change the government after 5 years.the government you want to protest against. has more grass root support than you think.(whether you want to bury your head in the sand or not kenya is a tribal country).60% of tribes had rejected kibakis rule in 2007. the number has dropped to 19% meaning kibaki has regained confidence of 41%of tribes that had initially rejected him.when you add the 40% that approved of his leadership you get 81% of kenyan tribes approval rating.
Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...
