This is so funny yet very profound, it deserves its own thread.

In Western countries they have left leaning and right leaning political ideologies. In Kenya there are those on the move the building side and those on the move the river side. The law is what we decide it is vs there is a law that we should abide by.

On one end of this political divide is Ferdinand Waititu and on the other is Miguna Miguna. We all lie somewhere in between those extremes.

I found it funny because of how Waititu said it but this is no laughing matter. For the longest time the ruling ideology in Kenya has been the move the river ideology.

When @masukuma & Man Waititu are reasoning at same level, then things are crazy!!!!

Waititu is right from an engineering point of view but wrong from a legal perspective. He is right that a river can be tamed or moved a few meters away or canalized so that development and nature can coexist. This has been done in many countries where the rivers, lakes, and even oceans have been tamed. The only problem is that our laws do not allow that and land allocations and developments on riparian land are illegal.
