Re: : We need to support Hon Raila--How about supporting the people of Kenya?

Fiona,

There are many Kenyans in the Diaspora, who, when they are back in Kenya, they stay in Komarock. I speak on their behalf as the Chairman of LDP Komarock Ward.

Then, we have many Kenyans who call Embakasi their home, I again speak for the as the Secretary ODM-K Embakasi.

I also hope that you know that Embakasi is the biggest constituency in Kenya in terms of numbers. And being elected to speak for all these people is no child's play.

But if my tone was a bit disturbing, then my apologies to you.

You see Fiona, I was just stating what we campaigned for in 2002. That time, Kibaki was resting in the UK, while others under the command of the Enigma, traversed this country and ensured that Kibaki was elected president.

My tone could be hash, simply because we do not want to repeat those mistakes. We are again mobilizing Kenyans to vote for the Orange, and we do not want the Orange leaders to do a Kibaki on us Kenyans.

I must hence talk tough, and bring my points out strongly, so that cheats, and pretenders can get me right.

Everybody in the net is discussing some politician. But I fail to understand why you want to limit me. Do you want me to praise Kibaki and then you will be pleased?

I cannot do that. Campaign also for your man and convince me that he is not the tribalist that he is. Convince me that we now have a new constitution under you man. Convince me that your man eradicated corruption in Kenya.

This is a forum for discussion, and here is where we must discuss our leaders. Convince me with facts. If Kibaki has not made Kenya more tribal, convince me otherwise.

How do we discuss issues of development? When I say Kibaki is busy developing the personal economy of his friends and himself, is that not development?

Fiona even Tegi Obanda, Wanyee and Mosaisi have never tried to limit my contributions, as much as they support Kibaki, and I support Raila.

We argue, sometimes real hard, but they have not shown me anything to believe that they can be dictators. So why are you getting hurt Fiona? Some times we are almost at each others neck with Obanda, but I am certain, we can happily share a cup of coffee together.

I am told the truth hurts, did it hurt you? If it did, pole sana siste.
