Yet another antique to discredit Raila. You guys never get tired of propaganda. Its good only a few people read these kind of non-sense. Now, I want you to comment on the following.
1. Constitution that was promised in 100 days, and don't tell me it was rejected, because what was offered is not what we wanted as Kenyans.
2. Attack on the Media by his wife, then keeps mum forever on the issue.
3. Attack on media by the Arturs brothers, have you read the Kiruki report? Get one and enlighten yourself
4. Anglo-leasing corruption deals. If you need more information, get Githongo to enlighten you as well.
5. Tribalism on public appointments. You have the list, just read it aloud.
Is that what you want to endelea?
Raila, trained and is an engineer, worked for Kenya Bureau of Standards, lectured at University of Nairobi which you know but like selective amnesia you left out.
1. Raila will bring change in the Political system such that all Kenyans will feel they belong, regardless of tribe through devolution.
2. Thugs perpetrated by Kibaki cronies like Njenga Karume/Maina Kamanda led Mungiki will be a thing of the past.
3. Kimunya will stop the ethnic bashing by analogizing NSE with the fish market.
4. Moi will return all the money that he stole.
5. There will be no more impunity like what we are witnessing in Biwott and Co
6. There will be a massive investment on infrastructure. We will need not try to justify the allocation of 900m in Central and 200m in nyanza, as it does not need a genius to know thats its unfair.
7. Githongo will be back to "tape" ministers who are corrupt! Ha
8. No more rattling snakes.
Should we just shut up because as it is, Raila is the next president.
