[kictanet] Bitange for President? Extended due to Public Demand

[Harry Delano]

Bw Ps,

Thanks for your articulative responses... Indeed looking at events cutting
across the globe
now, one wakes up to a realization that we face similar socio-economic
challenges. Bottom 
line, is how do we respond. And respond we must. But consequently this is
what makes the
huge difference between moving forward purposefully to achieve progress and
backpeddling on
the other hand.

We'd also wish to understand what strategies would be put in place to ensure
a balanced 
infrastractural development across the regions. I suppose much of the
concentration right
now is around the Capital and it's environs at the expense of the rest of
the country. 
How about dealing with the great tribalism "monster".

3rdly, what strategies/plans do you have in place to achieve this dream you
have.

Harry

Grace,
Thank you for extending the debate to Monday.  I hope I get time to
articulate some of the issues that will impact our lives in the next few
years.  Earlier I said that we are not alone in how we are dealing with our
social development.  I went ahead and gave examples from the US and UK.
Although it is an unfortunate for the British people, it has come to pass.
Even the Central Bank we got some good debate out of my post.

Leadership requires selfless commitment to the people they lead.  It is a
sacrifice one makes.  In this respect, I will seek for advisors who have
demonstrated ability to serve their country with dedication.  We have these
people but they have never been given a chance to lead. The constitution has
accorded us the opportunity to search for such people. 
If you read today's front page Standard, it has the requirement for those
who want to join the electoral commission.  If we follow the requirement to
the letter, we shall get credible people.  It is this process that lacked
before and political operatives took charge in many posts within government.

Indeed there will be a policy guideline on all organizations registered
under Societies Act.  It is in the interest of the public that these
organizations file annual returns to the registrar because they are tax
exempt.  Tax exemption means that we the public partly fund their
activities.  Further the state has a responsibility to protect its citizens
from being taken advantage of.  We cannot burry our heads in the sand on
this issue no matter how sensitive it is.  We shall also be implementing our
constitution with respect to Bill of Rights.


Regards


Ndemo.
