When we Privatised Kenya Airways
KQ has never recovered because the rich decided to invest in Airplanes and forced KQ to lease all profitable air routes to those owners!
Most of these leases are through NCBA bank so every time Government with it’s share of KQ decided to bail out KWQ the percentage of Citizens money goes towards the leases of planes because Kenya airways reduced it’s number of airplanes as Politicians continued to buy and brand their own planes
When Politicians decided to Privatize KPLC nothing has ever been the same again for industrialization and small factories
Electricity is bought through third party using PPp agreement whose objective and first priority is to benefit their Shareholders in Kengen, KPLC even as Citizens build dams that generate the Hydro Power!
Now another group of dynasties has come together to Privatize Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) and this will now finish off the small industries that relied on Generators to produce
Another impact this will have is directly affect cost of living because a group of individuals will now be controlling Kenya’s fuel prices which means cost of production will go up which will affect cost delivery of goods to market this affecting cost of living and effectively making a percentage of Middle class drop to low income household
Kenyans will be doubly poorer in assets & wealth as the rich own the Government and all National assets
We can’t allow this to happen and we need a serious discussion and a referendum to end Privatisation of Communal Public utilities and National assets that have been publicly owned for years before corrupt Politicians started to move them through manipulation and deception as a Public service benefitting the Citizens.
The situation is that 99.9% of voters and the general public can not even understand the privatization issues you point out. They have no basis to be angry enough to stand up and demand anything different.
They can’t even understand the concept thet those public assets being privatized belong to them, all they know is that KQ na KPC ni ya serekali i.e it belongs to someone else.
