*⚠️Why Kenyans Should be Wary Of Ruto's US Visit📍*

A famous US president once remarked that the United States has no friends- only interests.

No country has learnt that more painfully than the UK which has long mistakenly regarded itself as America's closest ally in Europe and beyond.

However, 8 years after Brexit- which the US was opposed to, the UK has struggled to get a free trade agreement with the US largely because of the shrewd negotiation and tough demands the US has placed on the UK.

*I worry for my country Kenya😭*

It is a well known phenomenon in international diplomacy that the greater the lavishness extended to an African leader on a visit to these leading countries such as the US, the worse off that African leader's country shall be after the visit.

For the American Ambassador to Kenya Meg Whitman to be physically present and by President Ruto's side (unprecedented) tells the significance the US is attaching to this visit.

Be without doubt, there's something unfavourable to Kenya that America badly wants and by the end of President Ruto's state visit, America shall have it.

There would otherwise be no incentive for America to offer a state visit to a country whose economy is only 0.3% that of its own.

Truth be said, most of our diplomats have a very scant understanding of the power games that the seemingly benign acts of diplomats selfishly seek to achieve for their countries.

Many of Kenyas diplomats and negotiators lack the gravitas and understanding of the complexities the high stakes of national interest diplomacy actually entail.

As such, they are easily arm-twisted, and corruption also means they can, if need be, be bought upfront for cash.

Cyrus Jirongo told Kenyans that in the 1990s, the Moi government took cash bribes to allow the dumping of toxic waste in Northern Kenya.

And now over 30 years later, Kenyans are painfully and dearly paying the price with frightening rates of cancer deaths in that region, long after those that sanctioned and profited from it are dead and buried.

I will not be surprised if moving forward Kenyans witness more American mass produced agricultural products (at the expense of Kenyan farmers) in the market or Kenya agrees to host an American military base to counter China's largest military base in Africa, strategically located in Djibouti.

And that comes at a steep sovereign cost to Kenya.

We learnt recently that China has to approve any high profile visitor to Djibouti and all Chinese critics from anywhere in the world are barred from visiting Djibouti as the British MP and China critic Tim Loughton learnt recently when he was deported out of Djibouti at the behest of China.

I understand too from good source that Kenya's inability to chart a clear Diplomatic course prevented its admission into the expanded BRICS group but Ethiopia with a more savvy Diplomatic strategy was admitted even when it's economy is almost the same as that of Kenya though not as advanced.

The BRICS countries which include China, India and Brazil represent the future economic levers as power slowly shifts away from Europe and the US.

That our country's diplomats don't understand that is a strategic miscalculation.

For now we can only trust that our president will place the country's interests first and not be mesmerised by a brief photo opportunity at the Rose Garden of the Whitehouse and fall to the seductive trap of the Americans and give away the family silver for a song.

The true measure of leadership in my view isn't the eloquence with which you say YES.... but rather the clarity and conviction with which you explain why NO is right - and especially right for Kenya and her citizens.

It is a lesson we all hope President Ruto understands.

Kenyatta build KICC, Moi grabbed it, Kibaki reclaimed it,Uhuru renovated it and Finally our one and only Ruto sold it . A short eulogy of Kicc

"Backbone of the economy", President Ruto's parametres suffer selective amnesia. His public address gymnasia is incomplete without a mention of fertilizers - "we've reduced prices from 7.5 to 2,500/-", is now familiar ringtone, presumes agriculture is the "backbone of the economy" & that fertilizers are panacea to Kenya's intractable woes. Perhaps, in old Russia?

A statement released yesterday by Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) jolts Dr. WS Ruto's selective amnesia (thanks Msomi Edwin Siala for sharing). This report ought to be a wake-up call to all. Between last October to-date, Kenya has lost 70,000 jobs, courtesy tax-tax & an unsustainable cost of doing business. Every other day, FKE continues to receive notices of redundancies. "Employers (40%) plan to REDUCE the number of workers". The executive's response? "We've reduced the price of fertilizers to 2,500/-...."

"Backbones?" The workers & peasants are the vertebrates, the foundacia of the economy. By their sweat & blood, they ride boda bodas, sell mbogas, beautify, turn machines in industries, farm, fish, herd livestock, etc. However as Lenin avers "capital, created by the worker, crushes the worker ruining small proprietors & creating an army of the unemployed". An aphrodisia of a ruling elite?

This government has failed and failed a good one. Instead of dealing and addressing our challenges, they are busy blaming;

1. Uhuru
2. Baba
3. Israel 🇮🇱 vs Hamas war
4. Ukraine 🇺🇦 vs Russia war
5. USA 🇺🇸 Fed rates
6. Winnie Odinga

YET they are busy buying mansions worth 250M, doing shopping at exclusive shops worth 5M for clothes only, buying the latest 2023 cars, marrying second and third wives, getting pe**le enlargement procedures and telling us to tighten our belts because they have done their best and now we must pray. They have no shame. I swear we need to pick just one and his or her family and burn them as a lesson, things will become straight in Kenya 🇰🇪. It's just a matter of time

We are doing it again mapema ndo best this is the only party that believes in social democracy let's join hands together and salvage this nation

So saddening that those who voted "TO PUNISH RAILA" are the very same cartoons complaining that Raila is not fighting for them. The Problem in this country is having lazy energetic young people busy running their fat fingers on key boards in their sofa-sets complaining how a 78 year old Raila Odinga has refused to go on the streets, inhale teargas, Dodge live police bullets and fight for them. They forget that at age 36 Raila Odinga forfeited his personal comfort to be detained for 9 years while fighting dictatorship. His family was constantly persecuted and victimised. His wife was dismissed from her teaching profession and thrown out of the staff quaters to the streets. His father was put under house arrest and constantly harassed by the dreaded special branch. If you feel that Raila is letting you down by not fighting for you, just tell your father to pick from where Raila left and continue with the fight. It doesn't cost him anything to attain Raila's stature. Let him just go to Kamiti and stay there for 9 nine years. They will give him free meals and they won't charge him any fees. It's free induction, fully paid by the government.
