This would be inconsequential as some have bought properties and stashed money in foreign countries
Waiguru style…
Waiguru will have to do a lifestyle audit and I know Kenya want to find out the truth once and for all. Punda amechoka
Tuache kujidanganya, lifestyle audit= upuss =can’t happen won’t happen, and if it does happen, the results are soooo useless. Despite the many lifestyle audits done to all the corruption suspects, none has been apprehended, no evidence has ever been found since there is no goodwill from the govt. What do we expect from this roadside declaration? Chenye najua ni eti itatumia pesa zetu and nothing can come out of it.
What lifestyle audit? Her wealth was acquired by giving pucci to the highest office. It’s what women have done for decades anyway.
It is widely known, Jomo was a serial thief. He even rebuked, cursed, insulted, and sacked kaggia for not enriching himself using public money. When peasants were buying purchasing mashamba for 20k, he, a birrioneare would purchase the same size at 1k.
You mean to say he ‘Purchased’ the land at a super discount? Btw, from whom were they ‘buying’ those lands from?
By 1977, about 95% of the former White Highlands had been transferred to black
African ownership, principally Kikuyu, but also Embu and Meru (together these ethnic groups comprised 30% of the population).
Ethnic favoritism and political patronage also played an important role in land acquisitions, as did corruption. Given the role of powerful Kikuyu politicians in Kenyatta’s government, the system favored wealthy Kikuyu (and their land-buying companies) with political connections, at the expense of other ethnic groups, such as the Luo, Maasai and Kalenjin. Kikuyu gained access to settlement scheme lands in Coast Province, Rift Valley Province, and other locations across the country. Kenyatta himself illegally acquired large tracts of settlement land. By 1989, “incomers” comprised 35% of the Rift Valley population. Other ethnic groups were outraged, a source of long-term ethnic animosities.

Ile book ya Kenya looters and grabbers details this
If he really meant well for his people he should have ressetled them in their original lands yeye anyakue za riftvalley but he chose to do the opposite. Hii maneno ndio watu wanasema ndung’u land report and TJRC reports should be implemented but he prefers the narrative willing buyer willing seller
Those loans were accesible to only a few connected individuals and cheap as they were they were not paid back instead they would be written off by the same govt. The National bank of Kenya operates this way.
hio mashamba haikuwa ya kalenjin.ilikuwa ya wamaasai
Sijasema ni ya nani
However the colonialist took over those lands from kalenjin inhabitants. The kikuyu used government privilege to steal.
Before colonial era, communuties used to win territory through conquering weaker tribes.
However, Kenyatta used the government to displace other tribes, which is contrary to Darwin laws of survival.
The lands should have reverted to owners before colonial disruption.
places like runda, muthaiga ,westlands etc were taken from kikuyu by colonialist,so it means all of us must accept and move on,yaliyo dwele sipite
Are you sure of what you are talking about? Go ask Savanis how the ended up parting with their land in Thika.
Then ask Michuki’s family how they ended up with the Windsor land.
Go ahead and ask how the owner of Lilian towers obtained a loan and whether it was procedural and if it was fully paid.
While at it please refer to Bildad Kagia’s fallout with Kenyatta on matters land.
Then explain how Koinange and PC Mahihu ended up with a myriad of coastal properties.
Find out also where the payments to Mau Mau went to.
Kindly don’t post such posts if you cannot research and see issues from a proper perspective.
The first batch of Kikuyus to find themselves in Rift Valley were courtesy of the colonial government’s actions. These being; land grabbing and hut tax imposition. These two led to movement of the Kiambu Kikuyu to the rift to work as farm hands in the mzungu ranches.
Lari was sought as a place of resettling them but Chief Wakahangara and others used this opportunity to enrich themselves land wise and earn bribes…when the Kikuyus from rift who were to be resettled lacked land they resorted to murdering the chiefs and their families…some remained others returned to the Rift.
The Kikuyus who settled post Kenyatta, some legally acquired land, others the government settled them by force since Jommo used to ran Kenya like his personal property one even wondered whether he thought he was immortal.
Go ask the Indians who lost their properties when they refused to sell at the price quoted by the buyer
It’s more complicated than that.
When you are arrested committing a felony you are charges in a court of law whether your accomplices were arrested or not, culprits should not start shouting mwizi shika huyo mwizi when they are the actual thieves. Jomo akiaga Uhuru alikuwa na miaka 17, he was minor to have committed the ills you want hang on him, he doesn’t even know how his father acquired his wealth. I repeat, the solution to the corruption problem lies in holding today’s thieves to account for their loot to stop further looting then go after thefts perpetrated in the past.
