Politics poses threat to anti graft war

In the meantime, let us say ‘enough is enough.’

This country belongs to all of us and the youth make up a huge percentage.

If the older generation seems stuck in the mud, it is imperative for you to determine the way forward.

You must come together and in a singular voice, state what is important to you.

You have the ability to determine how the game of politics is played and the development agenda that needs focus.

We have only one Kenya, let us do our best to preserve it.

For a start, together we cane ask the Civil Society to push Parliament to come up with clear standards that determine how an MP (and/or senator) will be expected to behave if he or she is implicated in corruption.

This will help our country redirect its efforts to development and cease wasting any more energy debating whether a legislator should step aside or not.

Ideally, we should have a common accepted practice.

I propose that the Parliamentary Select Committee be tasked with this job as they have proved to be high performers.
