Friday 1 March 2013

D-Day Beckons:

Today is Friday 1st March and it is the first Friday of the month of March and the last Friday before we go to the polls on Monday 4th March 2013.
We have just a few days to decide (for those not yet decided) on whom we shall vote for as our elected representatives right from the President of Kenya to the county representative, a total of 6 people in all. This is the first time under the new constitution that we shall be electing such a huge number of people at a go and it will definitely take longer than we have been used to in the past.
All the candidates have held their political campaign rallies where they have promised, begged, cajoled, pleaded and requested you to vote for them and the endearing message from all those that are clamoring for our votes is that they shall be the real change agents that we have never had, never mind that some of the more experienced ones have also served in the government over the years in one role or another some with minimal impact on the efficiency of the government of the day when they were in service.
The destiny of this country now and for the future is in the hands of the citizens of this great country who must choose wisely because they must then live with the people that they have chosen to lead them for the next 5 years.
We are all praying that whatever the outcome of the elections to be held in a few days, peace shall prevail in Kenya and we shall conduct ourselves with decorum and respect because once again the eyes of the world are focused on Kenya as we go to the polls.
My message is vote early, vote peacefully and most importantly vote wisely!!
GOD BLESS KENYA!
