Dear Sir,
Greetings Mr. Deputy President. How are you doing lately? I know it’s been tough criss-crossing Kenya urging Kenyans to register in large numbers to shame yule jamaa Wa vitendawili come August this year.

From Kisii to Mandera. From Bungoma to Kwale. Mheshimiwa, I can’t even imagine how tiresome this has been to you especially with this mama abby noise spreading like bushfire in social media.

Mr Deputy before I forget let me congratulate you on winning over ICC case. Sir, you invested wisely in your legal team and they delivered. Pongezi sana. Mr khan alisema na akatenda.

Congratulations Mr Deputy on successfully merging URP, TNA and others to form Jubilee party. Sasa mko pamoja kweli. Most importantly, Congratulations for holding the office of the deputy president of the republic of Kenya for 5 years. We all know, Its been tough Especially with Jamaa Wa vitendawili as the MAIN opposition leader of the republic.

Sir, i beg to take you back in time, precisely 5 years ago. The date was 3rd of February 2013, during the launch of jubilee coalition. And this, is What you told us.

"Under the jubilee government, no Kenyan will die of hunger and drought. The price of Unga will be below kshs. 90.

We are committed to growing our economy by double digits, create 1 million jobs annually, create 24hr economy.

Doctors and healthcare workers will be properly paid, no woman will pay for maternity care, no Kenyan will travel abroad for medical treatment, our teachers will be paid, and our policemen will all live in better housings. Strikes end with Kibaki government na yule Jamaa Wa vitendawili. We will pay workers because They're the backbone of our nation.

We sign a contract with Kenyan People to transform and secure prosperity 
for all Kenyans.

In five years we will come back to Kenyans to judge us on the basis of our performance and not vitendawili. There will be no politicians in jubilee government but Kenyans of integrity who will digitally transform Kenya. Sisi tunasema na kutenda "

Sir, its February 2017. Just 5 months to the next general election. I beg to be corrected If am too Quick to judge your performance as a government. Its been 5 years. Isn't it? Please sir, If you don't mind answering these questions:

1. After 5 years of jubilee governance, Are there no kenyans dying of hunger and drought?

2. Is the price of Unga less than kshs 90?

3. Has our economy grown by double digits?

4. Has jubilee created 1 million JOBS annually?

5. Do we have a 24hr economy especially with increased cases of insecurity within and outside our borders?

6. Are our doctors and other healthcare workers properly paid?

7. Is there no woman paying FOR maternity care esp with no doctors in public hospitals and health centres for months now.

8. Are Kenyans not traveling abroad FOR medical treatment?

9. Are our teachers and lecturers paid and our policemen in better houses?

10. Sir, did Strikes end with the coalition government?

11. Are workers as the backbone of our nation well paid? Be honest sir, because labour day is fast approaching and Brother Atwoli is reading this too.

12. Has jubilee transformed and secured prosperity FOR all Kenyans? Mlisema, je mtenda?

13. Last but not least, are there no politicians in jubilee government? Is everyone in your team a person of integrity ? Did Madam Waiguru digitally transform Kenya? What happened to Ngilu and Kazungu kambi? Were they not politicians?

Mr. Deputy sir, I know You're a busy man but please find time to answer these Few questions. Your friends will say am working for the opposition but Mr. Deputy Even Kenyans in your own backyard are eagerly waiting for your feedback. The VOTER REGISTRATION is ending on 14th of February and as IEBC embarks on the crucial audit of the VOTER REGISTER please Mr. Deputy president convince me and other Potential voters that You're the Best candidate FOR deputy president 2017-2022 and probably the Best president come 2022.

Thank you sir. God bless our Motherland Kenya.

Jubilee Government Achievements And Successes Since 2013


President Uhuru Kenyatta at 2016 Madaraka Day celebrations 


1.Title Deeds
In the 50 years since Independence to 2013, we issued 5.6 million titles. But in the period since 2013, our Administration has issued 2,322,913 titles.

2.Education
First time in Kenyan history, no parent has been asked to pay exam fees for his or her child in primary or secondary school. Our Government has increased capitation for primary schools by 40% and secondary schools by 35 %. The budget for free primary education was 8.96 billion in 2012/2013, and this has risen to 14.1b in the current financial year. Similarly, the budget for secondary school education was 19.2 billion in 2012/2013 rising to 32.5b this year.

The budgetary allocation for the Higher Education Loans Board was 5.5b in 2012/2013, and has risen to 7.6b this year.

3.Security
We have added 2,400 new vehicles to the police fleet, significantly enhancing mobility.

4.Huduma Centres
To enhance service delivery, we have built more than 40 Huduma Centres across the country. Huduma, as you well know, is a Jubilee innovation. More than 5m Kenyans served who previously would have had to travel long distances to receive such service. I commend all public servants who have adopted to this service.

5.Electricity connections
We had 8,000 Schools connected to power before Jubilee. Since 2013, we have grown that figure to 20,450. Out of these, 750 schools are connected to solar power. 1150 primary schools remain to be connected, but all will be connected by end of November. Kenyans connected to power before Jubilee were 2.3m. Today, we have increased that to 4.1m — that’s an additional 1.6m Kenyans. It means that the Kenyans with access to power is now about 50 percent compared to 32 percent before 2013. With our plan to put a million Kenyans on the grid every year, we expect to meet our target of enabling access to 75 percent of our people.

We had 1,660 megawatts of power when we came to office. We have added 600 megawatts of clean energy. For the first time we have a margin of reserve energy.
When we came to office, we had 2,200km of transmission lines. We have added 700 km of transmission lines for a total of 2,900 currently.

6.Social Protection
710,000 people today benefit from social protection compared to 226,700 when we came to office. Opportunities for women, youth and people with disabilities. Over 80,000 businesses have registered by Youth, Women and persons with disability since 2013. Of these, over 30,000 have received business from Government in last year totaling over 30 billion shillings.

We are sorting out challenge of registration and seek to streamline this.
All Ministries must ensure that once goods are delivered and invoices raised, there is no reason why they should not be paid in 2 weeks considering they have borrowed.

7. Fertiliser subsidy
When we came to office, fertiliser cost 2,700. Today fertiliser costs 1,800 shillings. We have an increase in production as a result.  Subsidised fertiliser has also been made available to farmers in the maize, wheat, tea, coffee and sugarcane sectors.

8. Media and telephony
The number of TV stations has risen to 55 Stations this year from 14 in 2013. Radio Stations up to 126 from 108. This has largely resulted from the opportunities presented by digital migration. Many jobs have been created as a result of digital migration. Mobile telephony has increased by over 20%. In this context, I urge the National Assembly to re-look at Media Bill and ensure it does not infringe on constitutional guarantee of freedom of speech and media.

9. Devolution
The Jubilee Administration has been Responsible for the implementation of a whole new constitutional dispensation. We have done it. We are very proud of this achievement. Devolution may not be working perfectly but it exists and it is the duty of every Kenyan to make sure it succeeds. Less noise more work.

10.Healthcare
Hospitals are getting new equipment. 10 hospitals done. Our target is 94 hospitals countrywide and we remain very much on course. When we came to Office, there were 40 dialysis machines existed in Kenya. Once we are through with our programme will have additional 245 dialysis machines across Kenya. 2 years ago, incidences of malaria at out-patient facilities was 30%. Today, we have slashed that to 10% as a result of distributing 13.6 million mosquito nets. We have also increased access to ARVs from 600,000 people when we came to office to 850,000 Kenyans covered today. Our target is to cover an additional 600,000; meaning that 90% of Kenyans living with HIV will be given treatment. Despite challenges with immunization, 85% of Kenyan children are now immunized. We are well above the WHO standard of 80%.

With regard to NHIF – When we got to office 4 million Kenyan families had insurance cover. Now, we have added another 1.7 million families. This translates to 26 million Kenyans that have insurance cover.

Our free maternity programme has borne fruit. When we came to office only 44 percent of women gave birth in medical facilities. At present, 68 percent of our mothers are attending hospitals for childbirth. In 2013, Maternal mortality was 488 per 100,000, and has declined to 310 per 100,000 today. Likewise, the child mortality rate has declined from 72 per 1,000 to 52 per 1,000 today.

In the coming weeks, I will meet the leaders of the most affected counties to ensure we bring this down.

11. Standard Gauge Railway
The SGR 55% done. We are extending to Naivasha as a result of this good progress. Plans under way for Industrial Park in Naivasha. In addition, the new container terminal in Mombasa will be ready by next year February. Meantime, the upgrade of JKIA continues apace. We should have a modern hub in due course. The Road from Mwatate to Taveta, having been spoken about for 50 years, has now started.

12. National Youth Service
NYS over 100,000 community Youth engaged in various programmes. The NYS School has expanded from a capacity of 4,000 to 30,000 young men and women undergoing various vocational training. Yes, there are problems that have arisen but we shall sort them out.

12 Mega Corruption Scandals Killing the Jubilee Government


President Kenyatta with his deputy William Ruto at a press briefing

Well, as the August 2017 general elections draw nearer and nearer, it is wise to revisit the achievements of the Jubilee regime, which majorly is massive looting of public resources.

I have compiled a list of the major corruption scandals carried out under the full watch of the Jubilee regime.

Laptop Tendering Scandal: the whereabouts of 53 billion shillings allocated to the project and tendered to Olive Technologies is unknown particularly after the court rejected the laptop tendering given that the company had no financial capacity to deliver the laptops.

The Eurobond scandal: in 2014, the Kenyan government borrowed over 250 billion shillings as Eurobond which was meant to pay previous governmental debts and fund various infrastructural development projects in the country. Early last year, former Prime Minister Raila Odinga emerged with allegations that over 100 billion shillings from the Eurobond proceedings had been misappropriated. A report by the the Auditor General Edward Ouko in September 2016 revealed that Sh215 billion of Eurobond moeny was accounted for.

Standard Gauge Tendering Scandal: being Jubilee’s pillar infrastructural project undertaken in their 5 years in power, SGR has been surrounded by controversy since its inception due to single sourcing – tendering process of the Chinese China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) and how the quoted total cost of building the SGR rose mysteriously from 220, 921,502,221.08 Kenya shillings [approx. 220 billion shillings] to staggering 1.3 trillion Kenya shillings.

The National Youth Service Scandal: well, this scandal has been on the airwaves since 2015 after the Opposition came with the claims that over 791 million shillings had been looted at the National Youth Service. The State House came forward quickly and announced that no monies had been lost at NYS, and defended the then devolution Sectary Anne Waiguru (whose NYS department fell under her ministry) as being an industrious civil servant. A report by the Auditor general Edward Ouko in June 2016 put the figure of looted cash at NYS at 1.8 billion shillings.

There have been other mega scandals under the jubilee regime:

475 billion shillings Irregular Lamu Coal Project Award: it is alleged that the said amount was lost after the government awarded the tender to a company that did not even submit a proposal at the request for proposal stage

55.6 billion shillings JKIA New Terminal irregular tendering Scandal: irregular tendering through Kenya Airports Authority during the construction of the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport New Terminal saw the loss of 55.6 billion shillings.
15 Billion shillings of the CCTV Single sourced tender to Safaricom.

10 billion Geothermal Development Company (GDC) scandal – during tendering process.

8billion Karen Land Scandal involving 40 Members of Parliament

1.3Billion irregular drug haul ship explosion: reports have emerged that the MV Al Noor ship blowup by President Uhuru Kenyatta in August 2014 didn’t actually contain the alleged 1.3 billion shillings heroin, rather it was mere gypsum used for making fertilizer according to one of the vessel’s crew.

 50 million shillings Chieckegate Scandal: this scandal involved top senior officials at Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC). Investigation by UK’s Serious Fraud Office (SFO) revealed that British companies dished out bribes to IEBC officials to secure deals. Those involved in the scam in the UK were fined and jailed, but Kenya is still conducting investigation on the Kenyan officials implicated. SHAME!

This list won’t be full without mentioning the 100-million-shilling Hustler’s Jet Scandal. Scam allegations hit Deputy President William Ruto in 2014 after it was reported in the media that the DP had charted a luxury jet at a cost of 100 million shillings to take Ruto on a trip to Algeria, Nigeria, Gabon and Congo. However, the government came forth through the then Information permanent secretary Dr Bitange Ndemo to quash such claims.

Well well well… how are you doing my fellow Kenyans? If you haven’t gotten a chance to eat the national cake it is the high time you find means and ways to – align yourself with the Jubilee government and sure you will leap from being a hairdresser to a billionaire overnight... Au sio?

Now back to the main issue I am posting this piece… I have happened to come across a video showing President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto contributing a cool sh70 million in one harambee! Yes 1 church harambee.

Deputy William Ruto in a past harambee

Apparently, each donated sh34.5 million to a Diocese in Narok County! When asked where they get such huge amount of cash despite their sh1 million monthly salaries, their answer has always been – “Tumebarikiwa na Mungu – Toa ndio ubarikiwe”.

Well, we are all ignorant at the fact that these guys are definitely stealing from our public coffers, but what can we do??

Check out the video below…
