Obama: We don't want aid, we want an anti-corruption stance

Today is a great day for us all. We Kenyans may not get an extra portion of ugali, but a son of our own will ascend to the most powerful position in the world. So it should mean something. It'll mean even more if 8 years from now, the Kenyan mwanachi can look back and say the son of our own has exceeded our expectations. He has been a real friend.

A real friend is the one who tells you when you are going wrong. A real friend tells you when you stink, when your spouse or girlfriend is wack/a fraud. And they are there when you are in real need.

Obama understands our critical issue. We've had aid since independence, but because of corruption, we are worse off today. I believe its Einstein who defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over and expecting a diferent outcome. Corruption is the genesis of most of Kenya's problems including last year's clashes. It'll cost more lives unless its dealt with the seriousness it deserves.

Rais Obama must refuse to deal with corrupt African regimes and give them similar parriah status to Mugabe. If we are to end up in the arms of the Chiness and Arab goons so be it, but we need a different way of dealing with our proudly corrupt regimes. Kibz and RAO are now in that list of proudly corrupt regimes and Obama must deal with them as such...

Best wishes President Barrack Obama.

For Mandela, read Obama

I remember the feeling watching the day Mandela walked out of prison in February 1990 and I feel the same now.

Congratulations to the US for showing Kenyans that colour, tribe, race should never be a judge of ability.

Update:
For every black person who has had the direct hurt of racism inflected upon them
For every black person who has had to be twice as good as their white colleagues to overcome his colour.
Today is your day

For me and my family, whatever sort of President Obama will be (and I am sure he'll be a success), today he has done enough.
