It all boils down to tribalism, if citizens could all speak in one voice and join forces to uproot the corrupt cartels in unison, corruption could be a thing of the past!
This is batshit crazy. I think kenya should strongly consider the death penalty for corruption.
Kabisa
Removing subsidies and spending go hand in hand. Everyone is being asked to sacrifice except the political class and govt officials who are the biggest spenders. Ruto needs to crack down on the low hanging fruit like waste , duplication, corruption, fuel gazzling vehicles, travel, ghost workers, tendering, procurements . I will focus on just one. One of the biggest waste in govt is Travel.
One of the biggest waste in govt is in travel. foreign travel by Mps, counties, and govt officials is one of the biggest expenses in govt. The biggest expense on travel is tickets and per diems. Average tickets costs 2000 dollars and Officials are paid 1000 dollars a day for their expenses. Imagine staying one week thats $5000 per person. Stay More than one week do the math. Some officials get 10,000 dollars for 2 weeks just for one person. But no one even the civil society has ever brought this up even the media.
According to the Auditor general report, the govt since 2013 till today spends 1 billion shillings per month on perdiems. It was also reported that during covid county govts spent 12b during a time when travel was restricted. So one wonders what travel were they doing unless they were turning in fake travel invoices.
When magafuli came to power the first thing he did was cut all non essential foreign travel only essential travel for govt officials. one had to get permission from him or his cabinet secretary to travel. The results were astonishing. The govt saved 400million dollars ( not TZ shillings) in one financial year and used that money to finance free secondary education. Now imagine if kenya were to do the same that amount of money would be more than 400m dollars.
If Ruto put his foot down did the same as magafuli lets in his first year. he would have this money to fulfill some of his pledges like finance irrigation schemes Like thiba dam in Kirinyaga and all around the country where we have rivers and build flood mitigating infra to harness that water for irrigation and meet food security
Our Ambassadors who have nothing to do can be designated to attend meetings in place of govt officials and give reports on outcomes
Other areas of waste are
-Travel mileage claims by mps and MCA's which are overstated or fake
-Ambassodors upkeep -many bring no value yet we pay billions for their upkeep
-loss making parastatals-cost the country 200b a year
-Procurement-overstated govt purchases by 1000%
-Ghost workers.
-Tendering and contracts being over valued by 1000%
-Merging some ministries and parastatals to avoid duplication
And you believe he can do those? Does it mean you can’t notice the difference between Magufuli and ruto?
I think Ruto is not much different from Uhuru I mean in corruption. He is just a good orator and a little more hands on manager. He was a mainly one man financier of his campaign and therefore he will have to pay himself first before every one else. I see all this hope and I have bn watching development before and after elections and kinda realize Kenyans have too much expectation and hope hence they may end up being disappointed.
@@NGACHI100 he is worse than Uhuru.
@@NGACHI100 Nice observation about ruto. he is a little hands on manager looking out for his own interests first and then dolling out crumbs to the masses to share the little crumbs that may come their way
@@NGACHI100 that's exactly what I've been saying. A wise man said insanity is repeating the same thing every time and expecting different results!
Kenyans keep on voting for b.s reasons and expecting miracles. Integrity, vision and other valid reasons to vote.
Blame Uhuru glorify ruto. Expect heaven from raila while not voting for him!
They said uhuru's father is on the banknotes,he is statehouse born,rich and won't steal? Jeez
I was involved in early investigations of Goldenberg international scandal andits prosecution on behalf of LSK. What made people aware and outraged was the simple example of what the money stolen could have done in terms of building hospitals or even the magnitude of placing one shiling on the railway line from Mombasa to Kisumu.Sarah Elderkin tried hard to awake the consciousness of Kenyans to what was taken from them.I still feel we have not yet reached the boiling point to make decision to fight corruption. I hope wizileaks and such projects will help change the society to action.
First, we gotta deal with tribalism, so that we all speak one langugage which is against corruption and all its vices.
I like this and this is a cause I can volunteer...
I have always maintained that the root cause of systemic corruption is the lack of good social security schemes for public service actors and punitive measures where breaches occur. Many corruption cases arise from the "get rich quick mentality"
The ric h are bigger thieves...so? Think again
Kikuyu
Eric Latiff these are the kind of guests Kenyans will like to see you bringing to your show not cheap retholic. Your show locks. Wanjiru and Allan are forever objective in my honest view. I admire the balanced way in which Wanjiru argues her case-Very articulate and objective. Love you Wanjiru and John Big up my guy. We need more of you guys. Barrack Mirukawas once such a guy but lost his credibility when he turned objectivity to retholic.
Jicho pesa akowapi . Niiiii Taaaakriiibaaan , that guy was a con artist..respect To John for standing and defending Kenyan resources
I like that discussion about corruption , why can't we do development with budget allocation and that county-wide where those government don't go beyond balance budget. What I mean is County's must have a balance budget before they allocate any money. For example states in USA cannot do business before balance budget is done.
In kenya or in blackmans land in general,saying our government is corrupt is like shouting to hyenas that they are greedy.
LOL..yup...it won't stop anything
Let's have this figures that we can understand the magnitude of corruption that make life of Kenyans unbearable.
Allan Namu if given powers and opportunity to fight corruption I'm sure he will do the best to do away with corrupt leaders
They will silence him just as githongo ,
I like Wanjiru's point " cutting back on expenditure and relocating to development"
Kenya = Ufisadi 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Great!.. we need more of this..
Wanjiru Gikonyo is HOT! Never admired an older lady before. I'll look for her and i must meet up with her
😂😂
As a European, I wonder why Kenyan has all these tenders.
For big construction works I het it. Then you apply massive transparency (like here) and current oversight.
Bt for "small" matters such as teacups, coffee and napkins for county offices, municipal offices, the residents office and the likes, you have a purchaser. - Which, of course, when we talj about countries such as Kenya, is responsible directly to thee keeping the books wherever.
It works in my European country but then we don't have a corrupt mindset.
This is a very quantities and qualitative analysis on systemised corruption in Kenya.
Raila owns Barkri Oil and he will never speak against, oil price hike
Kweli jina ya Raila ni tamu, even when the discussion is not about him. Kindly mention the big names involved in real corruption
Good stuff, great insights
at the end of 5 years he will do something , but not as expected, as he has always been doing.
Hihi thanks Allan God help kindly help our aging mothers who are being milked at ruiru ni the name of maumau very month contribute money with no receipts very bitter can do something kindly help me willing to offer advice
The problem starts from the roots.once we start expediting services for a little bit more money on the books,it's going to create a big impact.the local mwananchi makes it a norm,so why would we care if billions are missing.
But when one exposed we start singing music wetu
As long as we have groups that praise thievery and hold thieves in high esteem, just forget about it.
Nobody talks about the euro bond issue.
Hi. Good discussion that highlights the status of our dilapidated governance. But kindly what is the mission of wizi leaks and how is it impacting on governance.
Thanks
thecurrent administration should really consider tax reforms i.e electricity token
Don't forget about the high level of corruption going on in the sports sector.
I think Uhuru Kenyatta must be called out individually. He has propagated grand corruption....
He was not alone, in fact he became the shield of the real corrupt guys
Let's hope we can cut govt. spending, that's the only way we can reduce high taxing and borrowing
Allan miss those days in KTN
Please call Simba Arati to your show. The rot in Kisii stinks to the high heavens
What happened at the Uhuruto regime???...as if we don't know,if you come to power through electoral theft do you expect to be corruption-less.
YOU KNOW ARSHAD SHARIF
its time now o deal with this moonster in all level of goverment andany person found guilty of corruption then courts should work in time frame so that culpit to be punished and cash ore properties be recorverd with high speed
Only fools will believe a corrupt person can fight corruption.
Sober discussions
That is not true! your question with the response," enough is enough" was on his thoughts on property acquisition. ! Not about corruption
Where is Kenya's oil as in Tullow
Mr. Namu this ought to have next assignment because none of the political ppl talks abt it. Was there a handshake among them too on oil.
Solar
But what happened to our oil fields in Turkana?
@@enterpreneur9738 Even so what's the hold up on extracting the oil?
Maybe Uhuru sold them to himself and used our taxes to pay himself. Then import the oil and sell it to us...... He is the greatest thief Kenya has ever had
