Unionist Dr Isaac Newton Kinity has called out President William Ruto over what the unionist terms is experimenting leadership on Kenyans.
In his message in memory of the numerous youth who lost their lives during Generation Z-led anti-Government protests, Kinity warned President Ruto over his leadership style.
He noted that Kenya is not a Laboratory for experiments on matters leadership adding that Kenyans are not insects or small animals for experiments.
At the same time the former Secretary General for civil servants Union refuted claims that the Generation Z-led anti-Government protests are funded.
He said the protests are as a result of Kenyans who are tired and angry with the leadership of the day.
“There is no foreign or local sponsor of Gen Z. Gen Z is angry with Ruto. Gen Z is angry with corruption. Gen Z is angry with extra judicial killings. Gen Z is angry with the rampant looting of public funds. Gen Z is angry with poor governance and poor leadership,” he stated.
According to him, using the Ford Foundation or any other organization as a scapegoat for Government’s failures will not save, and neither will using any nation as a scapegoat for the failures save.
He added that time is now that Kenya needs true, honest leadership that will bring quick economic improvements, quick job opportunities, quick prosperity, and good governance void corruption.
“Kenya should not be used as an experimental ground for poor governance by incompetent corrupt Kenyans with the mindset of looting public funds for the purposes of becoming billionaires overnight. Kenya can witness tremendous success in the war on corruption, tremendous economic growth, tremendous unemployment reduction, and tremendous improvement in local and foreign investments in the country within a period of only one year, with a honest, transparent and accountable Leadership,” he said.
The former Unionist has also called on Kenyans never ever to allow any future leader to go past six months in power without any visible signs of ending corruption, without any visible signs of economic recovery, without any visible signs of unemployment reduction and without any visible signs of improvement of atmosphere for investments.
The vocal unionist has urged Kenyans not to allow the trial and error method of governance as practiced today as Kenyans are neither insects nor animals for experiments.
“No leader in Kenya should be allowed to exceed six months in office as president without depicting signs of economic growth, without depicting some signs of unemployment reduction, without depicting some signs of success in the war on corruption, and without depicting some signs of poverty reduction. 5 years of honesty, transparency, and competency in governance by any would-be president would be enough period for a good leader to retire with an admirable and historical legacy,” he said.
He revealed that 98 % of the Kenya Army personnel are suffering together with Kenyans, that 98% of the Kenya police are suffering.
Dr. Kinity added that Kenya has no room for dictatorship and that Gen Z and all other Kenyans have a right to protest and to picket to air their grievances as the only avenue and the only forum to speak up their problems.
He says, moving forward, Kenyans have a choice to make come 2027, a choice that will save the country.
His sentiments coming barely two days after President Ruto nominated 11 members to the Cabinet as opposed to the 22 that were dismissed.
