RE:-THE FUTURE OF KENYANS AND KENYA IN THE

CONSTITUTION:

The debate about the Kenya constitution dates back in 1989 when a number of high ranking government ministers went all over Kenya collecting views from the public in what was called the Saitoti review commission. Millions of Kenya Shillings was spent on that exercise.

Up to this day no one knows the fate of all what was done by the commission. It is now 20 years since the first talk about the constitution began. Every time when the elections gets closer the talk about the constitution and other issues which affect Kenyans, are raised by those aspiring to take leadership positions in Kenya.

Everything about the Constitution, fades soon as elections are over. Today there is an uproar about the constitution review process. Pressures from all quarters, are being exerted on the Kenyan leadership to implement reforms. What is not exactly clear is the readiness, honesty and genuineness of the current leaders to draft an acceptable competent Constitution that will contain and control the Corrupt, Brutal, Arrogant, Tyrant and Dictatorial Kenya leaders.

During the referendum of 2007, the two forms and types of the two constitution drafts did not provide comprehensive safeguards to save Kenyans from tyrants and dictators, who from time to time, have been violating the good sections of the existing Kenya constitution.

For example; the protection of Kenyans and their properties and the freedom of ownership of properties anywhere in Kenya by any Kenyan, are enshrined in the current Kenya Constitution. This is very well defined in the existing constitution yet Kenyans have continued to loose their lives and their properties every now and then.

The Kenyan leaders have continued to violate the exiting constitution with impunity. The unlucky and unfortunate nation of Kenya has been a victim of brutality and arrogance from its own corrupt leaders whose envy is to loot public funds and to enact bad laws which hurt Kenyans. They have continued to increase their salaries every moment, even when Kenyans are dying of hunger and poverty.

In 1980 the Kenya Members of Parliament kept silent after the former president Moi unconstitutionally invalidated the union for the Kenya civil servants through a dictatorial decree. Following the invalidation, the Civil Servants lost billions of Kenya Shillings in form of assets, Properties and alot of money in various banks all over Kenya estimated to be worth Ksh. 60 billion, a wealth they had accummulated since 1959.

In 1982 the Kenya parliament enacted a law which made Kenya a one political party state. In 1986 the same members of Kenya parliament removed the security of tenure of the offices of the Attorney general, the judges, the public service commission , the comptroller and Auditor general. As recent as September. 2007, the Kenya members of parliament through an act parliament, pardoned all members of parliament, who committed atrocities and other crimes before 2003.

The same members of parliament, for a number of months, aggressively demanded for blanket amnesty for all those who financed, and sponsored the post election violence, before the Waki Commission of Inquiry into the post election violence was formed.

The Members of Parliament, also gave Hon. Ruto, who was accused of involvement in the Maize scandal, a clean bill of health.

Most members of the Kenya parliament cannot be relied upon to draft a good constitution for Kenyans. They have looted so much money from the public coffers and they have grabbed so much public land, such that drafting a good constitution for Kenya, is to them committing suicide. This is what the outside world does not understand. They are already compromised.
