Women are the ones holding Kenya together
I am careful as I travel but have discovered that when you meet with Kenyans in their own territory, its not that much of an issue.
Kenyans at the end of the day are generous, warm, eager to discuss their troubles and eager to do something about them.
And yes, Central has been most surprising.
Incredibly welcoming.
This has been less to do with me than with the fact that people feel catastrophically let down by their leaders.
There has been talk of your applying for Justice Ringera’s job as director of the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission. Any substance to that?
I want to thank the thousands of Kenyans who sent me messages asking that I apply for the KACC post.
But at the end of the day, it is clear the machine is broken — something I have said several times in the past.
Under the current administration, success in that job is impossible, regardless of the tired rhetoric.
I’m not keen to sit there eating public money for nothing.
To apply would have been tacit approval of a system that is currently like a tick on a cow’s back that’s grown so fat it’s in danger of becoming as big as the cow.
I want to be effective in propelling change through Zinduko Trust and Twaweza and working with wananchi.

Kumbaart, read carefully what Mr. Githongo has said. If you are just half as smart as you should be, this comment of yours shouldn't be here. Don't distort facts to suit your mediocrity of wits.

WOMEN ARE THE ONES HOLDING KENYA TODAY. If women can not hold a home of one child together wiihout a man how can he hold Kenya together. After a careful sturday of women behaviur,I concluded by myself that the more you folow a woman the more yuo will get lost. Our four fathers were right to keep womwn and feed them like their children unless we go back with them, you will find women trying to give dowry for men men be careful and watchout.
