WILL THE HIGH PRIESTS OF GREED SUPPORT NAMWAMBA’S MOTION?





It is very crystal clear like the biblical ‘Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin’… it is audible to the deaf and visible to the blind, that our greedy MPs popularly known as “MPIGS” will pooh-pooh the ambitious motion filed by Budalangi MP Hon Ababu Namwamba, seeking to reduce salaries of public officers. We need to feed ourselves before feeding the nation has been the modus operendi of our Members of parliament and other public officers….Leaders in name only. This gap must be closed. I dare them to prove to the people that they are not as avaricious as we have always known them to be by supporting the bill.

If the motion by Budalangi MP Ababu Namwamba is passed by the national assembly, the President, Deputy President, Cabinet secretaries, principal secretaries, MPs, senators, governors and their deputies, the two speakers of Parliament and the clerks of the houses will immediately have their basic salaries slashed by 50%.

The motion also pursues other drastic austerity measures including reduction of the number of counties and constituencies to cut down on the bloated figure of elected representatives drawing hefty perks. Indeed the motion is good and should be supported by every compos mentis or otherwise reasonable Homo sapiens. Somebody needs to explain to jubilee folks and any other legislator who may want to oppose the motion why this motion is of national interest, why they should rise above party parochialism and support it. I beseech the lawmakers not joke with the future of Kenya. The soaring wage bill must be tamed. I support the motion.

TANA RIVER COUNTY: “THE KING’S ARBITRARY DISPOTISM”





Essential liberty is being eroded simply because “some people” want to show us who is boss. And guess who the sacrificial lamb is? It is none other than Kwaraa recently referred to as Mandela. Accused 6 days ago for “undermining a public officer” which public officer? Who is the complainant(s)? Who are the witness? What evidence do they have against him? A case of intimidation? Most probably.





This is how shameless and “Principled” our “bosses” are and because the matter herein is a case without a complainant, you can take this to the bank dear “bosses”, you may kill the messenger but not the message. Your subtle approach has failed. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced.





I put it to you that the confluence of the rivers of dictatorship from the heart of the “bosses” drowns any gain principle they purport to hold. However, I will leave that to the court of public opinion to judge… As for the most of our analphabetic police officers, they might not do much to protect Tanarians when it comes to security but they do a great job of intimidating innocent citizens.









Anyway, this fascist bullying must stop. Free Mandela Now.
