    It's sad to see how Kenya is destroying its self. A country we other African usually look up for, the pace setter. I hear the grievances of the young people, but I can see there's some force behind them that aims to destroy Kenya not to build it. Initially it was 'Reject The Bill', the bill was rejected, now it's 'Ruto Must Go', who do you want to come in who will truly make a difference? Kenyatta's, Odinga's, Mwai's, Moyo's,…? This is why failing to educate our young people about politics will hurt us, they're focused on data science, etc… but not politic. Whoever comes in, is likely to lie to you and just tell you what you want to hear. Because destroying an economy, or building it, is a process of many years and plan. Everyone knows how KE is corrupt to the lowest level… If KE people want to change the system, it will require a man who western world consider "dictator", but if you're happy with the system, issue is not the Ruto. I wish our KE brothers and sisters well, hope u'll get out of this stronger!
