Kenyans,
I hate people who stigmatise a whole community. In Kenya we have seen even when Kenyatta was eating a lot even to death people were all stigmatising Kikuyus. Infact Kikuyus lived without land in Central province at a time when the elite family was having more than enough for themselves. The Kikuyus have migrated from the central province to get land inorder to feed their offsprings. But despite all these when the ruling class was eating other tribes were looking at Kikuyus as a tribe. Then came the Kalenjin Man Moi, he had also his friends who used to eat with him. These people could dine the whole day at a time when in the same rift valley people were going to bed with empty stomach. Kenyans are known to be talketive even when their next neighbour is dying from poverty or hunger. I have seen in this forum guys who blindly support their own Mp even when he himself is even jobless and the Mp is even corrupt and is completely doing nothing as a leader. Guys let us look for a good course for our future not a future of a leader.
Lomor came criticising a whole luo tribe at the same time praising his own.
Almost all tribes in Kenya are interlinked in one way or the other. We have the Nilotic where you find masai, Luos, kalenjins, nandis, kipsigis, langos etc. and the Bantu groups. The present kenyan generations are also so mixed up in marriage that sooner or later it will be very hard to pick on somebody on the basis of tribe. Where do you group kids whose parents are one a kikuyu and the other a luo or a kalenjin and luo, or a luo and a kisii?. All those Intermarriages living in Nairobi or Nakuru, or kisumu even outside Kenya where should these so called strong tribalist group them in?.
I thought that this group was full of educated lots but some of the comments do kill my hopes for a future Kenya. Guys let us look forward not backward.
