Very true. Only that Treasury is a part of the Executive. The Executive will be well represented by Treasury in such a discourse. Perhaps just central bank to complete the picture.
How both the government and the opposition are ignorant of Jimmy's claims is quite heartbreaking,the opposition are refraining to call it out to protect the previous regime while the current regime seams to be wanting to benefit from the same fraudulent borrowing
Your framework of thinking is as defective as the kind of thinking that has landed Kenya into the abyss in which we are. Firstly there is no such thing as Govt/Opposition matrix in keeping the Executive in check. The Govt has 3 arms and the arm that is responsible for creating all the messes we see around is the arm called the Executive. Oversighting that arm of the Govt is the responsibility of Parliament. And the constitution empowers you to directly determine the kind of people who occupy the TWO top seats in the Executive as well as in Parliament. Therefore if you decide to elect Executive thieves, and you also decide to elect dunderheads for MPs, then you have no one to blame except yourself. Secondly 2010 constitution re-arranged governance structures. It got rid of an Opposition, so the so called Opposition is only existing in your head. Thirdly it strengthened the role of Parliament in oversighting the Executive by kicking the Executive out of Parliament, unlike the old Constitution in which the Executive held sway in Parliament through Ministers and their Assistants Lastly, Parliament was realigned to work together in oversighting the Executive by removing "Opposition side" and "Government side". Instead, those were replaced by Minority and Majority sides, to emphasize their collective role in oversighting the Executive. So stop hoping for some non-existent opposition to save you from your Executive thieves. Demand of your MP that he/she must play his/her role in oversighting the Executive
This man Wanjigi has the brains 100 times more than Ruto. He is living in the 21st century Vs the other guy who is in the 10th century. He is has a lot of nuggets. Food for thought in my own view.!!!!
The People should get into a serious conversation about raising the bar for Parliamentarians. They handle matters of serious magnitude that require high levels of comprehension.
When a revolution happens, because we are heading that way if we are to save this country, then you and I will have a chance to vote him in. We had the chance once but we were blind.
13:05 This is a whole chapter in the Libertarian Mind by David Boaz - The Market Process. If only Kenya could move from the mtu wetu politics to a more structured one with ideals.
Part of what my MP is supposed to do is oversight. That's where rubber meets the road. I know him so well and I confidently submit that he doesn't get the hang of what Jimmy is articulating- even if he wanted to. In other words if our legislature is characterized by people of my MP's ilk our goose is cooked.
What you have stated is the sad truth that cuts across the country. Most of Kenyan voters don't understand the role of an MP. Some vote for "mtu ya watu". Some premise their vote on "even if he is a thief, he is our thief and eats with us"! With such lousy voter mindsets, you can only expect a rotten Parliament. Voters don't understand the role of an MP and MPs don't understand their role in invigorating Parliament. Weren't some of them found the other day going to State House to "look for development"? It is a tragicomedy situation we have in our politics
I'm not an economist neither I'm I a lawyer nor a law maker,but sincerely Jimmy is making sense,I remember it was in every 100 bob 40 bob goes to debt,So we can't be told that sincere 2013 we haven't even paid a bob
This conversation is taking a different turn from the Maandamano tune. What an insight on political- economic affairs. He seems brave and also updated on the challenges facing Kenya's economy. I will continue to give him an ear now and in the coming days.
If Kenyans will ingonre this man as our norm of Housefly mentality we and our children will continue to suffer for the good of our few called tribes men leaders who clearly give no hoot about us or our future generations.
When we stop looking at the constitution, alot of things go wrong for the sovereign. Our lawyers and the relevant bodies shoukd take it up and enlighten people even in villages. That way people will be more informed and we will save our beloved Nation.
Historicly economic assasination has been very common in the world at large not just Africa and we need action taken before we start seeing unbearable ripple effects
Kenyans have been played like fools by the Kenyatta family. We thought we were getting independence and freedom from our colonial masters but we remained economically colonized. The civil servants in the various ministries and institutions have been helping the Kenyatta family and the colonialist and when Uhuru Kenyatta came to power they decided to cash out their investment and leave Kenyans bankrupt. A deal was made between Uhuru and Ruto to get them both out of ICC at the expense of Kenyan's inheritance. The Kenyan currency notes were changed during the Jubilee era now we know why. Kenyatta and Ruto pretended to fall out at the end of the Jubilee Government 1st term. Raila was tricked into a hand shake that made him an accomplice. Parliament can't provide oversight because most have also been compromised. The Kenyatta family control a considerable share of the banking industry of Kenya and are the biggest beneficiaries of Jubilee Government domestic borrowing. This is the biggest scandal Africa has ever seen. Everything we have come to believe about our politics since Jubilee came to power has been a big lie. The only real option we have is to declare the debt illegal and refuse to pay every other option will be equivalent to cutting the tree from the trunk instead of uprooting it.
They steal from the government and loan the same with exorbitant interest to the government. A case in point is KQ which is beholden to NCBA loan. That's why the treasury was plumbing billions to KQ to pay Kenyatta's loans.
I wish Kikuyus gave us this man in 2013 instead of Uhuru Kenyatta. Unfortunately moving forward we have lost our trust on all Kikuyus. They crucified kenya in 2022
The problem is that the alternative choice was more clueless and a continuation of Kenyatta family business empire. Uhuru was going to be the Prime Minister or by virtue of his control of government, Raila was just going to be a stooge.
Why is our debt going up? how has the debt ballooned from 8.4 trillion to 9.4 trillion in 1 year? If we are paying debts, how comes this debt aint coming down?...Solid questions from Wanjigi...treasury has some explaining to do
Without discounting what Wanjigi has stated, it is possible for debt to grow as you pay. If borrowings over any period are in excess of repayments then your debt will grow over that period. The only way of reducing debt is by paying more than you borrow. Or perhaps by begging for debt right-offs, which doesn't come easy.
The govt should strip down all departments to thread bare with o my essential workers and rebuild from the ground up. That would bring th budget down to 2 trillion
Can we have to a financial analyst to challenge his claim? That's all I we need to know the way forward. 'If' his allegations are true, we shall not accept this. No way!
Uhuru and Ruto must be knowing what happened and who benefitted. They must be protecting each other. Why did Ruto appoint former Central bank governor at the time most of this funds were borrowed as the current CS Finance and former PS Finance as Governor Central bank? Why is the government silent about the pertinent issues Jimmy is raising? Why is Azimio silent? Are they protecting Uhuru?
Ask not why Azimio is silent. All Kenyans should individually ask why ask why their MP is silent. This is the kind of stuff that the Constitution mandates Parliament to carry out under oversight. Parliament can collectively summon any public servant including CSs to explain the kind of discrepancies Wanjigi is talking about. They can demand any report/document from any public institution. But what do they do when they reach Parliament? They mentally divide themselves into non-existent "Government" and "Opposition" sides and vote mechanically on issues like sheep. It is Parliament which if failing the people of Kenya.
I think this should be be the greatest reason to protest as Kenyan......and demand sh 5.6 trillion .....hii mandamano ingine.....niyakutupisha mbao...heko Jimmy
@@kisina4437Ndii is peripheral to the issue. The person to answer these questions is the CS-Finance and he should answer these questions in Parliament. But, alas, most of our MPs think that they are an extension of the Executive.
That's it's choice abd it has chosen to be managed by the Executive. Just like the same institution chose to commit suicide during Moi's dictatorial regime.
Absolutely. Abd they were a part of the madness that created the chaos that we find ourselves today. Ruto is very strategic. The two have been placed there to serve a very evil and anti-Kenya role.
I agree we need to audit treasury but I would like to hear more details of his smaller government plan since we still devolution. Regan economics created jobs in the short term but decimated the middle class and the poor.
Wanjigi is just confusing political journalists with his pseudo economics.... Jesus... Wanjigi says that the parliament has never approved revenue appropriation with a straight face. I am just wondering what Annex iv of the Medium Term Debt Strategy (MTDS) is if not revenue appropriation. I am sure Yvonne Okwara would not have looked this confused if she was familiar with the budget making process!
Who has stopped you from calling for maandamano? Must it always be Raila to sort you out with your crooked elected leaders? Those crooks were your choices. Just live with them but ukichoka then you call for your maandamano! Ala!

Am Zambian, but i can hear sense from that man. Well spoken
Thank you Jimi for educating Kenyans.
Wanjigi is so smarter,brave and brilliant leader 1,000,000 times than The so called Ruto
Thank you Jimi for educating Kenyans..MAY YOU LIVE LONG MR.
We need Jimmi Wanjigi,Kwame Owino and Okiya Omttah against the treasury, parliament and executive

Who purport to act in public interest..
Because most of them are deep in what Jimmy is talking about. If you follow the money as he says,you will find all the criminals

If at all,this loans did not follow due process constitutionally,then we won't pay! Mr Wanjigi get us competent lawyers to petition the Government.
