HOW CORD HAS PLAYED ITS HAS OPPOSITION

No one from Jubilee wants to remember that the Opposition stood together with the government during the WESTGATE. the Uhuruto duo via the Media is trying to potray the opposition in bad light. begging the question "when was the opposition expected to stand and they failed"? "What has the wannabe government got right?" 1. The Cord coalition has proposed to the government steps to take to sort insecurity ie Withdraw kenyan army from Somalia, Replace the Cook-cum1- Security Minister with a competent person. 2. Opposed the taxation of basic needs 3. Cord has criticized the tribal appointment, draconian Media bill with Raila even visiting the National Assembly Speaker, pleading with him to reverse the act of kicking the press out of Parliament building. 4. The opposition has put the uhuruto duo on toes from holding the country hostage over ICC (Uhuru said during the presidential debate that ICC was a personal challenge.) 5. Cord warned the government against paying Anglo-leasing. 6. Just two weeks ago the opposition issued a 32-paged report card on the government entitled "Sins of Jubilee" To make someone accountable u don't do the maths for him but u invigilate/supervise. You just stand and watch them, making sure that they maintain the ethics required why executing their mandate.

There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

For years, the collapse of Libya under Muammar Gaddafi puzzled many observers across Africa and the world. How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region. Gaddafi’s Libya boasted: Free education Free healthcare Subsidized housing Cheap fuel High employment An extensive welfare system These were not myths. The United Nations Human Development Index (HDI) of 2010 ranked Libya 53rd in the world and first in Africa. Even today, that ranking stands...
