Meru County, nestled on the eastern slopes of Mount Kenya, has long been a region of vibrant political activity. Known for its diverse culture, rich agricultural lands, and strategic importance, Meru is now becoming equally known for its political drama. The past months have seen Meru being a hotbed of political intrigue, power play, and even an attempted ouster of its governor. But what is really happening in Meru, and why is it so significant? The Political Landscape of Meru Meru's politics have always been colorful, characterized by a mix of traditional leadership structures and modern political dynamics. Historically, the region has been governed by a blend of community elders, known as the Njuri Ncheke, and elected officials. This unique interplay has often created a delicate balance between respecting traditional governance and embracing the democratic process. However, in the past few years, this balance has been disrupted. The county has experienced rising political tension

VISIONARY 2030 GOVERNMENT?

 The Kenya vision 2030 was first initiated, in 2008, by President Mwai Kibaki during his regime, whose main vision was to transform Kenya into a rapidly industrializing middle-income nation.

Have you as a citizen taken time to visualize how the Kenyan government would look like in the next probably 8 years? 

With the present day youths, who are referred to as the 'leaders of tomorrow' holding onto those big seats and positions.

With the upgraded technology and use of internet, will things be fully digital? That is just but food for thought.

Kenya is currently in the hands of a new government led by His Excellency President William Samoei Ruto. First president with a PHD holder, a unique thing I'd say. He is a vivid example of how one can rise to the highest position despite of ones background.

With the recent leaders, who were rightfully appointed by Kenyan citizens, a lot of chaotic scenarios are arising. Some of the leaders are being accused of nepotism just a few weeks after resuming the office.

Will the 2030 government be nepotic as well? Will the high rate of corruption be dead and long gone?

As a country, these are some of the skills and lessons needed to be instilled to children in their school programs. Enlightening the citizens on the cons of corruption and the pros of good leadership.



For a country to move onto the right direction, the leaders should always strive to put the needs of the citizens ahead of their own needs and deliver what they had promised during their campaigns.

Will all this be cultivated in our 'leaders of tomorrow' when their time comes? 

Will we still be flying our flag high with so much pride and satisfaction?
