STATE OF EMERGENCY!!
TODAY,as I speak our country is in Chaos.Our MP's,teachers,nurses,doctors,civil servants e.t.c you name them, all want a pay rise!!I It is not hard to fathom why they all want a pay rise. We all need an increment, basically speaking.But why is this?What can be the underlying reason of this rapidly spreading notion?
Is it the global economy?
Is it the rise in inflation?
I think, the reason for this phenomena is simply a very strong desire to attain the best possible living standards.For years,we have been poor.For centuries we have been neglected,outcasted and isolated from the rest of the world.We have been exploited by the powers of the world for decades if not centuries.Since the dawn of slavery we have been used,abused and discarded by other people.And if you think that our country is independent, then my brother/sister your are in a world of delusion.A delusion created by the neo-colonists.These nations,come from the West and the East .They enjoy massive economies on our backs.They live extravagantly.They are cold-blooded oppressors who forge alliances with us that look great on paper but pitiless on the field.These fake alliances and treaties only benefit them.Infact they put is in debt.They make us their debt slaves.
Is it Viable?
Yes we want a pay rise, because we are tired of working,and working and working and still not seeing an end to our debts.Yes we want a pay rise because we want to give a better education to our children!Yes we want a pay rise because we want to access good healthcare facilities!Yes we want a pay rise to pay the ever increasing electricity costs!
This call for a pay rise IS viable and justifiable.
But the error we are making is that we are asking a pay rise from the government!!?A government that it self can not pay wages of its workers.A government drowning in debt.A government that is incapable of providing the basics for all of us.(That is why we are asking for a payrise!!!!).
The solution to this epidemic is in our National Anthem;
Ee Mungu nguvu yetu
Ilete baraka kwetu Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi Natukae na Undugu Amani na uhuru Raha tupate na ustawi. |
O God of all creation
Bless this our land and nation Justice be our shield and defender May we dwell in unity Peace and liberty Plenty be found within our borders. |
Second stanza | |

Amkeni ndugu zetu
Tufanye sote bidii Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu Nchi yetu ya Kenya Tunayoipenda Tuwe tayari kuilinda |
Let one and all arise
With hearts both strong and true Service be our earnest endeavour And our homeland of Kenya Heritage of splendour Firm may we stand to defend |
Third stanza | |
Natujenge taifa letu
Ee, ndio wajibu wetu Kenya istahili heshima Tuungane mikono Pamoja kazini Kila siku tuwe na shukrani |
Let all with one accord
In common bond united Build this our nation together And the glory of Kenya The fruit of our labour Fill every heart with thanksgiving. |
We as Kenyans must agree to work hard in our respective fields.But most importantly we must work smartly.
We must stand united.
Building a Self-Sustained Kenya
To cure this epidemic what we need is a very strong,mighty,growing economy that can be able to sustain our pay demands.Achieving this,I acknowledge is not an easy task.But it can be achieved if we all agree to work together.
How is our economy going to grow if we import everything from the East or the West.How you tell me?We must,and I repeat,We must start becoming self sufficient.We must be able to manufacture locally,Grow locally and consume locally.
Today,at this moment I urge everyone,I challenge all traders to set up local manufacturing plants and to consume locally.
All Kenyan importers out there,who know the local market far too well,I urge you to start manufacturing locally,the goods you import from other countries.This will be able to increase your profits,I am sure,but will also be a step forward towards making Kenya more Self sufficient.
It is true,I agree that we can not become 100% self-sufficient in this global economy.But lets see how far we can go.
Hypocrite's
Have you ever asked why the Eastern country who built our Thika "Super" highway does not want to teach us how to build another similar road.They want us to depend on them forever for 'building roads'!!!
Have a awesome and fruitful day.
