Dedication to our defence forces

Tunalala kwenye vumbi na matope ili wewe ulale kitandani,
Tunala na bunduki ili wewe ulale na mwenzi wako,
Tunalala porini ili wewe ulale kwenye nyumba,
Unavaa kofia maridadi ya kupendeza, sisi tunavaa kofia ngumu na nzito za chuma,
Unavaa "vest" nzuri ya pamba, sisi tunavaa "vest" za shaba,
Unavaa mkanda wa ngozi kiunoni, sisi tunavaa mikanda ya risasi,
Asubuhi unaamshwa na "alarm" nzuri ya simu yako, sisi tunaamshwa na milio ya mabomu na risasi,
Unatembelea gari zuri la thamani, sisi tunatembelea vifaru na malori,
Unakula chakula kizuri ukipendacho, tunakula wadudu na matunda porini,
Tunakesha ili wewe upate usingizi,
Tunaua ili wewe uishi,
Tunaumia ili wewe upone,
Tunaitoa sadaka "leo yetu" kwa manufaa ya "kesho yako",
Tunatoa sadaka maisha yetu ili kutetea maisha yako,
Tunakupigania usiku na mchana kwa sababu tunakupenda,
Tunaipenda nchi yetu,
Sisi ni wanajeshi,
Sisi ni wazalendo,
Sisi ni mashujaa,
Ombea wote waliofia vitani,
Wamekufa wakitetea nchi yetu,
Wamekufa wakitetea uhai wako,
Ni mashujaa wetu,
Nchi yetu,
Amani yetu,
Jeshi letu.
DEDICATE TO OUR DEFENCE FORCE....
"FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY" One of the words of the frontline KDF

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.
