The MCA post has become a much-sought-after job In Kenya...

Lecturer salaries in Kenya range between Sh85,000 to Sh266,162 based on experience and qualification.

MCAs still take home about Sh400,000 per month in salary and allowances, despite the financial crunch that hit counties late last year.

Lakini why does Kenya need posts like of MCAs, Deputy Governor, Women rep and other ghasia posts?

We must be the most represented human beings on earth. I know an MCA who has been buying a brand new vehicle every term, plus tractors and other expensive machinery, yet he spends all his waking hours chasing women in Laikipia.

It really is a very sought after post. During the last election my ward had 20 candidates, 10 of them relatives. Sema family hostilities.
But what can we say about women reps??other than spreading their legs nini wanafanyia girl child? also Kenyans are supporting moves that will enable Uhuru Kenyatta remain in power as Prime Minister…

The BBI should be addressing this over representation, but all we are hearing is inclusivity meaning Raila becomes Prime minister. Bonobos hawataweza saidika

Bonobos, was wondering when someone would throw that word here.
Fu*cking hate it.
MFW, that’s Kenyans for you, and guess what. Euphoria will be created about it and It will sail through.
Right now anyone seen to be against it will be taken to the bleachers. Waititu was the first.
And I remember saying it here, those dissenting voices from Cendro will surely tow the line or face UKs wrath. See whats happening to M.Kuria and the CDF tenders he gave his relas way back. Atatii.

This is an easy 500,000K + za kuiba every month and you don’t have to work at all.
The MCA seat huko mashinani is increasingly becoming inter clans feuds. The biggest clans are winning the seats because they can mobilise easily and cheaply

Truesay. Sisi tulirogwa.:mad: WSR is a v hounded animal right now. Bruh when we think about the support he gave the son of Ngina…we cannot take it. UK akwende na huko and he knows. The wamamas that vote aka kina my mum/aunties cannot stand him right now along with Waiguru who is being touted as Raila’s running mate. These wamamas removed Kafogo. Usicheze nao wakienda chamas… all they discuss is politics because they are bored and also wana business tushughulis to mind.

p/s I hate that Bonobo word too…it reeks of shallowness.

Education in Kenya is meant to impart knowledge and improve skills.if people still have the notion that good performance in academic will automatically reflect good lifestyle then you will emerge as a very frustrated person in life. Most of those MCAs are functionally iliterate,

And they will still eat our tax until we stop associate MCA and National politics. Elect MCA based on his merits/capability not how he/she associate with Ruto or Uhuru or Raila

Not MOST but ALL.
