KENYA: THE PEOPLE’S REVOLUTION HAS STARTED!




We are calling on all law-abiding Kenyans to join in the People’s Revolution led by the ODM.A grand march is planned for this coming Thursday 3rd 2008. It will be led by the people’s President, Raila Amolo Odinga.

Kibaki and his rich cronies will not have the last laugh. Democracy will triumph. Kenyans cannot be robbed off what they have fought and died for for the last 50 years! Kenya is bigger than Kibaki. Every voter and his/her vote must be respected. There is a new generation in Kenya today that cannot sit back and allow greedy old men to take away their rights with impunity. All the chaos, myhem, looting and destruction of lives and property that is going on in Kenya must be blamed on the greed of Kibaki. Wonder how many more lives he wants to see lost before he can acknowledge the will of the people.

On the other hand, we are calling on Honorable Kalonzo Musyoka not to commit political suicide by accepting to serve as Kibaki’s Vice President in this short-lived stint. By falling prey to Kibaki’s evil schemes he will be alienating himself and the Kamba community from the rest of Kenyans. All the goodwill that he has amassed will evaporate instantly. He should understand that the Central Province votes in the next General election will go to Uhuru Kenyatta and no one else thus being lured by the Mt.Kenya Mafia at this point is committing political suicide!

Today Hon.Kalonzo Musyoka called for a meeting between him, Hon.Raila Odinga and Hon.Mwai Kibaki. It is the prayer of many that he will continue on that path until justice is seen to be done for the Kenyan people.

Our appreciation goes to the men and women in the uniforms who have defied orders from Kibaki’s men to shoot and kill innocent wananchi who are demanding to be heard and respected. Our appreciation also goes to the civil servants who are supporting the revolution either silently or openly. Last but not least, we thank and appreciate the brothers and sisters in the neighboring countries who are on stand-by ready to come in and help us should there be need.


For the Kenyans who do not speak and act now, remember the words of Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)

“When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out”.

The time to speak and act to save our hard-earned democracy is NOW!
