[kictanet] [Skunkworks] <OT> : No Electricity, No Fuel, No Cooking gas! I need my hot coffee or need some answers.....

[bitange at jambo.co.ke]

At some point we did not want government in the management of utilities.  We wanted private sector.  So fuel, gas and power became privatized.  I have not had power for the past two weeks.  The small generator I have cannot sustain the energy requirements for my consumption.  That is why I advocate for more energy production.  This will force KPLC to begin seriously to market the power and make customers happy.  In the absence of excess power they become complacent and guard profits.

As for private sector in Kenya, we have problems.  We cannot complain about the Government and private sector in the same sentence.  It means we have all failed.  We must accept this if we need change.  If government had issued the titles, the master file would have been changed.  It was not even as unscrupulous people fleeced fellow Kenyans.   When tenders are given to foreign companies we complain that local companies are discriminated.  These locals have no morals and no shame.

Let us admit that we have all failed and seek divine intervention.  Let us embrace a value system that ostracizes those who go against the norms.  Even the most corrupt have the audacity to point fingers at government and we listen to them as we do with saints.  We must have the courage to remind such people where they acquired their wealth from.  We are just about to go to elections when practically every candidate cannot explain the source of their wealth.  Do you really expect change from such rot?

Ndemo.
