[kictanet] Holding our Leaders Accountable

[Evelyn Rono]

I beg to be in their their shoes for a while.  Who can join me is saying
that they probably dont even know what is going on in the ICT industry in
Kenya, the developments etc - let alone tell us what they will do about ICT.

All the stuff about fiber optics, marine FOC, CDMA etc etc has been in the
media but.... can they relate/have they understood and of course they give
it little consideration ??????

They may have wanted a group as LK put it 'to shout' and not a serious group
of citizens. Could this be an indication that there is so much to be taken
seriously by any aspiring leader? - Just a thought!

LETS HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE!!

LK,

u sound a bit disappointed.  Unfortunately i didnt attend
the function and would like to know who really turned up
from the presidential aspirants and what they said...

Michuki, any hope for the text transcript?  Or Becky could
give us a brief the old way in form of minutes/updates/etc?
Then from there the absentees like me could contribute more
intelligently on the way forward...

walu.
