<div>Well said Bwana Ndemo. You have hit the nail on the head. Kenyans talk about using Kenyans, buy Kenyan. But the work is always shoddy, no matter what sector of business, the products are produced sub-standard. The other problem is that we as the citizens don't really have an avenue to vent and try and make a difference. It sometimes works when issues are put in the press, but not enough to make the difference. </div>
<div> </div><div>What do we do then??? It is a truly sad and frightening place our Kenya at this time. We have to really pray for our country and leaders and even for us that should get up and make a difference. To be bold and allow God to lead us ahead. Those with integrity should think about standing for parliament and country posts and that would be the first step in change.</div>

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 profit<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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?<br>
