I saw the 2021 kdf advert it seems this time things gonna be different
I saw kuna Gso cadets
Gso undergraduate ( why did they bring in this group?. I thought wangefall under specialist.)
The servicemen and women this time are going to compete with Gso cadets kukumbia field. What made them to change from the norm where cadets were shortlisted?.
May be we have a major or someone with a senior position in the army to shade some light.
Meanwhile I hope this time they gonna carry the process free and fair as they have stated
Military is modern day slavery. Those guys work their asses off, risking their lives, to protect the interests of Uhuru, Raila, Ruto,and the elite. I would rather be a cop and collect bribes everywhere from wananchi, than a soldier. Both serve the elite, but cops have more avenues to eat and make the hustle worth it.
Wise cops don’t depend on their salary. If you are a smart cop in a smart team, the bribes will make you rich, not the salary. Kuna askari fulani ameni-dent mara mbili due to traffic offenses (overlapping) on two different roads. Cops make a kill from shaking down criminals and people operating illegal businesses. When people advise against starting some businesses like wines and spirits due to cops, the other side of that story is that cops benefit. Bora tu ukuwe Nairobi or some major town utakuwa sawa.
It will be fair as we go along. Times are changing…young people nowadays want to decide independently. Sio kama zamani ati baba akisema utakua askari/dokta/mwalimu unaitika. As such, many people are likely to get jobs on merit.
I’m a product of merit and I’m always fair when recruiting…ukabila na mtu wetu bulshit inaendelea kuisha.
Gigo still applies here.
KDF soldiers get recruited through corruption. They get promoted through corruption na kujuana. It is naive to think they can change in our lifetime.
If you read the report of the El Adde you will know the rot is deep in Kenya army
