Watu waende nyumbani wakalime. And kina uhuru should seriously free up land for farming. Even if it means hiving off some game parks. Or irrigating the vast n rift valley or coast. We should use this opportunity to grow agri cities to create employment and be self sufficient enough in terms of food. The people who worked in hotels should get ready to now work in farms. We should build huge dams to tap the flood waters yearly pounding our land. If i was the president this is the route i should have gone, watu watoke slums and go elsewhere to be more productive in idle lands. Tunaeza kua mbele sana instead of importing everything including onions which can be planted in anyones back yard.
But being bonobos i know well go straight
to spending 15 billion in a referendum that is of NO use to the common mwananchi at all. And do you know whose to blame? Not Uhuru Not Raila Not Ruto but the average fool bonobo voter in kenya who has proved to us time and again that all it takes to buy his loyalty is a t shirt, cap, 100bob a loaf of bread and soda and he will tingisha his kinyambis in the scorching sun all day singing the hyenas praises.
You see Uhuru is not going hungry or broke, hes nowhere being broke, so he cant relate to the basic suffering of poor fellows like the sacked guys up there. Its up to us to show him the middle finger when they come with political nonsense and tell them we lack jobs food and security. Otherwise expecting a thief with a billion dollars in his account to sympathize with you without firm action is useless. He cant relate, thats why he hired comedians to Entertain you during this covid nonsense.
Why cant we use our huge youthful population efficiently is beyond me. Thats why i admired the beberus ways despite hating him. Kenya would at least be a heavy exporter of agri produce by now angekua hapa. He respects proper structures and systems. The only thing kenyans would have been crying sio njaa but kiboko kwa mgongo. He must be laughing seeing the comedy that is Black africa unveil
Na kenyans should be wiser by now to know that we are in a hyena forest na ni kujipanga. Sio just because you got a small job kila weekend ni party after party na latest gadgets. Kenya usipojipanga utapangwa. Tesekeni kabisaa
Umenena ukweli. But ngoja waamke.

Shida ya mwafrika ni moja tu. Bora tu apate shillingi mbili aweze kulipa rent, aende partying every weekend na awe na gari ya kufloss kwa status, then he’s very sorted. Hakuna siku yenye atafikiria kuhusu kusave, au kuhusu future. Watu wangekua discipline enough then at times like this when they are being laid off, they’d have seen it as an opportunity to rest their minds while spending a tiny fraction of their savings, or better yet start a project that’s meaningful. Otherwise bonobo ni bonobo tu
Utawaskia na ujinga za siasa tu. Zero progress. if we’re not stealing this or that then we are ever in campaign mode. Kwanza since 2013, zero development kabisaa . kusema tu ukweli slavery and hard labour had its disadvantages and advantages. It built great civilizations
- Owners of capital
- How many families have vast farmlands? One of reasons agriculture worked well in the past was vast tracts of land available for farming. Now slot of arable land is being converted into real estate
- Kenyans wengi, especially wale “wamesoma” hawapendi kazi za sulubu kama farming
- Farming is still frowned upon as a poor man’s venture, especially tied to 5 below. If you see people educated people who are doing well in farming, ni wale walifanya agricultural studies in primary and high school.
- Subsistence farming-many small holder farmers do so to feed their families. If they had alternatives, they would not farm at all.
Hatutaki kulima, tunataka kuosha rungu.
Have you ever travelled from kitale to lodwar? There is still some vast lands out there. If we irrigate which is possible given that we recieve annual floods
Mtu analipwa 100k plus mid month anakopa nyama kwa butcher
Na saa iyo hana savings
Wakenya sisi ni wavivu. We are a get rich quick society.
i have always wondered how someone owning a 10 acre shakeh comes to nai and stays at paipu…hiyo hesabu sijaielewa…
lakini sisi wote hatuwezi enda nyumbani tukalime we need some bonobos in the city ndio tuwaletee hio chakula wanunue tunukishe kitunguu
Umenena lakini just note that we have enough under utilized land lying idle before we think of encroaching game parks and et al.
All Uhuru need to do is subsidize farm inputs for the farmers.Make fertilizer and other farming materials readily available and cheap for the them.
That will lower the cost of production making food market cheap.That will minimize the importation that we see happening.Brokers going all the way to TZ and other Eastern African countries to import commodities that we already produce in the country and sell them locally double the price while our farmers still have their produces in the store.
The other thing that should happen is to empower those in agribusiness sector so that they can educate/train farmers on what to plant,how to plant it for maximum production,crop rotation method so that we avoid the scenario where farmers flood the market with one kind of product while the others are scarce.
If this happen you’ll find that many people are willing to go and utilize their idle land and forsake their white collar jobs.The 15 billion set aside for BBI or referendum could go along way helping the sector but we always have our priorities wrong.Not forgetting that Munya have other plans like importing of maize a thing which is beneficial to only a few.
Note that I have touched only on land related matters but there are also other agriculture sectors that need government support such as Fishing,Beef,Honey,dairy and many more.
However lets politic till we get enough of it,perhaps after that we shall focus on what is important for the country.
Dear kenyan mindro class, fagia kwako kwanza…
wacha kelele kwa shosho media na uende kuvote ama usimame,
wacha kununua gari na kaburoti nairofi, nunua tractor na urudi nyumbani ulime,
wacha kuweka bibi,mboch na watoto kwa hiyo apartment kilimani, wakae ushago na nyanya yao wajue kulima.
ambia watoto wako wachukue agriculture unifasete sio law,medicine,IT etc na wakimaliza waende kulima.
We tired this with Galana kulalu, and if failed berry up. Kimwareri,Arror and Thwake, berry up to.
If @poyoloko , you dig the .ke budget, in the last 30 years, you’ll be surprised that all your concerns have been budgeted for, and money paid out.
The problem in .ke, is that our institutions have failed us big time.
Na wale wako na shamba kidogo kama Kikuyus, Margolis and kisii watalima nini?
