Kilifi, in its vastness, is one of the poorest places in Kenya. So poor it is that BBI created for it FOUR additional constituencies. That would have meant Ksh 600m annually to those poor households. But the #BBIFraud bandwagon condemned those people into bottomless poverty.
If you opposed BBI, you have blood in your hands.

You aided Paul Mackenzie in murdering all those people.

Because, folks, there's a nexus between poverty and religious cultism!

Kilifi needs more resources to pull people out of extreme poverty.
We provided, YOU sabotaged.
We must do more to get people out of extreme poverty in this country.

Just last week Kenya Kwanza Senators gutted more resource allocation to counties.

Some of those senators will join you in calling for 'action' to be taken in Kilifi.

And you will cheer them as heroes.

There is social democracy, and liberal democracy.

In social democracy, people actually participate in the decisions that affect them. Liberal democracy is where the people with power and money rule but provide rituals like elections to perform public consent. #Lindakatiba
What is amazing about #BBIreport is the determination to perform public consent even when the public doesn't agree. That's more worrying than the rigging of processes like signatures and referendums. Because what politicians are doing is showing us the finger. #lindakatiba
This #BBIfraud thing isn't just about the law. It's about our soul. It's about crushing us so that we don't have a leg to stand on.

That's why if the elites push this thing through, we should tell them it's theirs and we have no obligation to obey it. #lindakatiba

Kenyans, it's time to talk about the role of the #upperdeckpeopleKE in Kenya's stagnation: the academics, professionals and civil servants.

They are cynically misusing public participation to call a flawed process of #BBIreport the people's agenda.

They've done this before.
The politicians know that politically, #BBIReport has no case. None at all. Everybody can see through what the dynasties are doing.

So they are getting lawyers, professors and journalists to argue about technical details and refuse to allow questions of context and legitimacy.
The other day the #newsgang on @citizentvkenya even hosted a top GoK bureaucrat to discuss the proposals in BBI and completely evade the socio-political elephants in the room.

What is education for if we're going to train people to talk in the clouds rather than vitu kwa ground?

The @BBCWorld called for my views about the dead Dictator Moi at midnight and I told them that Moi left a horrible legacy of destruction in Kenya. Whereas Kenyatta had shot Pinto, Mboya, killed hundreds in Kisumu and dumped JM's body in Ngong; Moi constructed TORTURE CHAMBERS...
@BBCWorld 2/3...On behalf of the 10,000 innocent Kenyans Moi butchered during the Wagalla Massacre; the 20,000 students, KAF soldiers and civilians he murdered after the 1982 coup attempt; and Titus Adungosi, Ochuka Raballa, Obuon, Okumu, Dr. Ouko, Oyugi Ogango and others....
@BBCWorld 3/3 On behalf of the millions of innocent Kenyans who have and will endure systematic, artificial but grinding poverty, unemployment, institutionalized tribalism, nepotism and theft of public resources, I wish to express regret that Moi died without being punished for his crimes.
