Wishing a happy birthday to our former president, Daniel Torotich Arap Moi. Yesterday he turned 90. We share a birthday and that is why he is the only politician I always remember to wish a 'happy birthday'.
I am so grateful to Moi, he kept the peace at the expense of a few individuals, my view is, overall, it was better for everyone. It's time he wrote a book exposing all, he is 90, we will let him walk. I give his presidency a B+ for the peace, we could have been Rwanda, DRC or Somalia (No offense guys) had he missed a step.
Kibaki on the other hand, resurrected the economy, created infrastructure, reduced our dependency on donors at the expense of even more widespread corruption. He gets a B-, for letting people die in 2007.
Now its up to you Mr Uhuruto, My prediction, these guys will score a A-, mainly because 2 heads are better than 1 and also because of the pressure they are facing from all directions (ICC, Referendum, Impossible promises i.e laptops) and the economic vision set by Kibaki which we must try to live up to.
Kenya is going to be an African super power if we stay on track, mend fences with the west and negotiate better terms with the East. Its time Kenya corrected the imbalance of payments.
