KENYANS FOR KENYA

I say it's about time this was happening.. we Kenyans are famous for last minute habits, even when life is on the line.
the past couple of months have put us on the spot in ways even the war-tone middle east seems like child's play.
look, I'll play devil's advocate here. much as i am humbled by the overwhelming support that Kenyans for Kenya seems to be getting, what annoys me is the cyclic trend we usually have with response to Hunger.
the famine phenomenon happens every two years. and its always the same old story. president declares a national disaster, government(which i wonder who exactly it is) denies there's no food, or that the situation is not as bad and Kenyans, for the goodwill the good Lord has given us, we donate for our brothers.
let's not miss the teaching your children how to fish lesson please!
let us bear in mind that we need to start adopting agricultural practices to those who knew none, and here am also talking about Eastern, coast, some parts of the North Rift and the Northern regions of Kenya. central, too needs this lesson, yea, there are people dying looking at the streaming water flow by. this is very crucial. there are success stories in some of these areas bearing the full throttle of mother nature's wrath. take for instance the Takaba water project in Mandera, they have put in place water systems that now sustain up to 21,000 people!!! visit the Kenya Red Cross website for more information. your jaw will drop.
who says it's not doable!
Corporates, let's not get ahead of ourselves here in finding a way to push our brands. this campaign should be the last. let us raise the money to kick-start success stories, to set up green houses, to buy drought-resistant plants- here by the way it's not always that maize is the food to grow, who says fruits aren't food- and also get water and irrigation systems running.
by doing this, we have truly become Kenyans for Kenya. so please pick your phone, on your safaricom line dial 111111(1 six times) and donate as much as you can. hata that ten bob, and let's work towards a greener food secure Kenya. kwani Israel na Egypt wanadoo?!?!?!
