    Kenya needs a leaner efficient Government, reduce number of counties, Mps, scrap women reps and ensure there is no overlap in government agencies like kenha, kura and kentraco/kenyapower, reduce government borrowing and allow private sector access to cheaper capital and finally reduce cost of electricity and fuel and we shall have a thriving economy

      Not reduce counties but remove the useless ceremonial government roles like nominated senators and nominated mps

      Politicians know exactly what to do. The problem is greed for power over decisions. Everyone feels they need to be the ones doing all that, else they sabotage plans they feel won't "benefit" them directly. Everyone wants everyone else to fail so they can the "savior we need."

    I can assure you that 70% of these loans were misappropriated. They aim to establish their empires at our expense, but the Kenyan voter is not discerning; they will elect leaders based on tribal affiliations, so be it.

      The China loan may be cheap but it will erode the country's sovereignty, hence the reason for the headache to pay back promptly. I'm sure you know about the case of China taking over some port of some countries they gave loans to but could meet the terms of payment.

    If the World Bank loan is to pay Eurobond and China loans, how come those loans have not been paid?

    • @Edwachable
      @Edwachable Před 29 dny +1

      These loans come with a date of maturity which means we cannot just simply avoid paying just because we want to. If we didn't pay them we would end up in debt default. Instead what we are experiencing now is debt distress. The right steps are being taken, albeit challenging.
