But Do I Say!

I'm on my way to the UK. I'm actually typing this article mid-air (they were so kind to allow me to use my laptop on the plane, which i think is no big deal since we're traveling first class anyway), I think it must be over the Tanganyika plains.


I'm fortunate to be on this trip, because this is a trip that will mark the future of this country. Generations to come, Kenyan children will ask their grandfathers to tell them about the day the ODM 'luminaries' contributed Sh.140,000 each to go to the UK and 'strategise' and discuss the future of their beloved country. The grandfathers will explain how paltry this sum was and that the rest of the money was being catered for by Kenyans in the UK who were interested in seeing revolution come to Kenya. they will patiently explain how important it was for the honorable leaders to go have their meeting in London because Nairobi had too much noise, and the atmosphere was not conducive for ground breaking discussion.


Those children would then be amazed at the wisdom and foresight of our esteemed leaders, who gave up a week of their hardworking lives and almost a quarter of their salaries to go to such foreign lands to give us a better life, because when they left for London, their constituents were starving, and some were fighting for land, and other small problems that were not important to address in light of greater national concern.


Which is why I don't understand why some of the honorable ODM leaders have refused to come for these discussions. This would have been a great opportunity for all of us to bond,and agree on matters of national importance that have to be discussed internationally. What more, we know that every person that wants to be president in Kenya must go to London. The late president Kenyatta started it all. Even our current president knew that, so when an opportunity arose to go to hospital there shortly before the elections, he did not hesitate. How can someone say they can't go to London because they have a campaign meeting to attend?


Anyway, to London we head, and we will meet and bond and have consensus. And when we come back, we shall tell you dear Kenyans, who shall be your next president, because we know how eagerly you're waiting for us to make up your mind for you. For those of you who intend to be presidents, I strongly urge you to make your way to London, where all Kenyan presidents are made.


And who am i, you ask? Just an innocent fly on the ODM wall. Long live Kenya, long live London!
