LUOS NEEDS TO STAND TOGETHER

Thank You Barack Abonyo, for your article.

I am not a Luo, but it pains me to see that the Luos and all the Kenyans who long for change is not likely to get it, the reason being the strife that is manifest among the Luo community. There is no way that Raila shall be the President if all the hate and name calling is rampant or continues as it has been. We all need Raila’s enemies in order to win!. If the Luos can not even support their own, how can you expect others to be on your site?.

Do not mistake me for as tribalist, I am not! What I am advocating for is a fair share for the people who have paid so much, for Kenya.

One vote from Tuju or Ogego, shall be the winning vote! Remember this. Do you think Raila can win if he is one or two votes less?. What is needed is to persuade the people not in Raila’s camp to see the need for being together. Driving them away to Kibaki does not do the Luos any good, nor does it help the People of Kenya to come out of bondage, which is the result of the bad governance.

This madness has to be stopped! Mzee Moi used many, and he was able to rule with 28% of the votes, where were the 72% of all the voting Kenyans?. Do we want Kibaki to do the same?. If we do not stop, it will happen again!, I am at a loss to even imagine that Luos, of all the people do not see the deceit here. The selfishness has to stop, and the good of all the greater society and that of all the Luos at large has to be paramount!

Many of the non Luo groups are already saying if this is going on now, even before Raila is the President , then, how will the Country be governed if He becomes the President?.

I am sad to say that the Luos have become Raila’s Achilles heels. In other words Luos are their own worst enemy!. Let us try at least to work as one to make Raila the president, then you can fight after!. Can we at least try? Only once!.

Having seen how the Luos have been used for the last 44 years, why do you help the exploiters of Luos and all the Kenyans to win? Kibaki shall win, if we do not stand as one, and help Raila by pulling together. I am not Luo, but I am seeing a lost chance to bring change in Kenya, if we do not stop useless attacks amongst the members of the Luo community.
