Mercy Wambui‎"The causes of unemployment are not what you see in text books. It is greed, it is lack of trust among those who represent people's interest, it is lack of vision, it
is the minimalist mentality that we have come to embrace. We must move from
this hopeless state to greater and collective thinking." Dr. Bitange Ndemo - P.S - Ministry of Information and Communications, Kenya

Anat Lewin I am a big fan of PS Ndemo. He's truly exceptional. If I were Kenyan, he'd have my vote.

Akinyi Bella Since I am in HR - I think I should "unlike" my "like".... or debate...since "it depends" and he is partially right...in this economy when times are hard and our spirits are indeed low - i embrace his comments - but during the dot.com boom in the US when employees had choices, we were hiring people barely out of school rooms and we were seeking strategies on how to attract and retain employees..that comment would be moot.

Seun Okinbaloye Great word there Mercy Wambui,and you know on our show on NN24;i24reports the issue of unemployment is our focus. This quote will definitely be used on the show's next episode. Can you do me a webcam recording on this with a bit of exposition of the effect of this on the African continent? I will be glad if you can do this for me.

Akinyi Bella Having read the whole article - my question is where is our outrage?!? All these guys running for President, what are like in these situations to ensure Fedex or Boeing are encouraged to set shop in Kenya to create employment???? That is why I sometimes I sometimes take a break from Kenyan politics since I get high blood pressure, watching republicans drives me nuts but watching Kenyans screw up royally ALL the time just makes me....

> Examine Robert's logic through his metaphor of how long a cow takes to die out of hunger. If he meant that we should have seen it coming then he is a master of contradiction.

> What is happening around Lake Victoria must be stopped. If indeed this were businessmen, then they need not spend money to silencing politicians. Infact some politicians speak like Robert. "Our people are lazy". This is a grave matter. We cannot fight poverty by telling our people to compete in a 200 meter race when the vistors are starting at 100 meter spot (Capital unlimited) and we cannot vouch on the sources of their immense financial strength.

> The impact of excess liquidity in the market affects everyone through inflation and inflated property prices as well as rent. You do not need an economist to tell you this.
> 
> I do not blame Robert's puritanical reaction. This is typical of us when we fail to look at a global picture. If it wasn't the fact that the official "campaign" is over I would have spent more time on the economic implications of the issue at hand.
