Useless politicians

Following up to the jubilee wrangle concerning Nairobi governor position , couldn’t help but notice non of the aspirants has anything meaningful to offer to nairobians.
Mark you not only from jubilee , even from the other parties it’s the same script.
It’s all about , tutachukua hiyo kiti. It’s all about numbers, idiots have nothing to offer.
Question sasa, since this is the trend all over, is there any hope for development ,better yet a move from the old Kenyan politics?
Every aspirants claims to promote national unity and stop tribalism ,yet they all coming to the table on behalf of their tribes.
Failed state.

I’m fairly confident 90% of Kenyan voters have no idea why we have elections, they also have no clear concept of what a government is, or what a government supposed to do.
A majority of Kenyans, K-Talkers included, only vaguely know there is a distinction between tribe, party, and state but really can’t tell you where those lines are. The politicians know this about us and work to exploit it. We are not doomed but we are not going anywhere fast. The tribalism is only going to get worse unfortunately.
So it is not really useless politicians, it is USELESS ELECTORATE. [/SIZE]

Democracy is supposed to work like this. Electorate everywhere is sheep.

Your sentiments are NOTED.

Democracy impacted Africa negatively and left electorates more confused of its benefits

Sir, you do realize that that was said by a politician, don’t you?

yes sir, but do think about the substance of the statement…just think about the fact that a buffoon called trump is a US presidential candidate…

I refuse to think of Donald as a complete idiot
I think that we have to cut him some slack
He is just thin on strategy so talking smack is his MO

enough said…

Even though Trump is a baffoon atleast he is focusing on issues affecting US electorate things like security, economy,immigration and health while our leaders are busy focusing on IEBC and tribal coalitions.

The substance of the statement is debatable. But I concur; Trump is a buffoon.

This comment should have closed the discussion - but nooooooooooooooo!

Shida ni…the class that can make a difference has total dis-regard of Government affairs and so its left to the poor and the rich and we all know
how this story goes…by the time the middle class have stopped outdoing each other on stupid shit and toned down their newly acquired petty arrogance
and drinking binges the country will have stagnated for another 50years…kila siku I thank God Kibaki graced the Executive office…hawa manyangau had made
it look like nothing can change in Kenya…

Most of those aspirants are from the Middle Class, they cannot escape blame.
