THE PEOPLE ARE POOR, THEY HAVE THE HOPES AND THEY LIVE HOPING FOR A BETTER TOMORROW. BUT NOW THE THINGS HAVE CHANGED. NO DEVELOPMENT PROGRESS, NO TRANSPARENT EMPLOYMENT PROCESS, NO CIRCULATION OF MONEY, NO ROOM FOR CONSULTATION OR DIALOGUE, NO HOPEFUL FOUNDATION EVEN FOR A FUTURE GENERATION. IN SHORT THE COUNTY IS MANNED BY 5 PEOPLE WHO HAVE VETO POWERS TO MANIPULATE ISSUES TO SUIT THEIR SELFISH I
NTERESTS, WITHOUT REGARDS TO THE HUNGRY, THE SICK, THE NEEDY AND THE OLD WHO HAVE NO CAPACITY TO OVERCOME OBVIOUS CHALLENGES. AS A PEOPLE AND AS A NATIONAL GENERATION WE MUST RISE AND MAKE OUR GRIEVANCES BE KNOWN THAT WE ARE BLEEDING, WE ARE DYING, OUR RIGHTS ARE VIOLATED AND WE ARE NOT SECURED BY THE AUTHORITY AND WE NEED QUICK RESCUE OR ELSE SOME OF US WILL LOSE THEIR WILLINGNESS TO FIGHT AND SUBMIT THEIR LOYALTY TO THE ILL-FATED GOVERNANCE TO TRAMPLE OVER THEM AND MAKE THEM FOOT HOLDS TO SPRING OVER TO PARADISE BECAUSE THE BURDEN IS NOW LIGHTER. WE HAVE A DEVOLVED SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT WHICH IS NEW TO ALL OF US YES, BUT WE MUST FACE THE FACTS AND MAKE ADJUSTMENTS WHERE NECESSARY IF AT ALL WE NEED THAT SPACE TO MOVE FORWARD. KENYA IS A DEMOCRATIC THIRD WORLD STATE UNDERGOING A METAMORPHOLOGICAL CHANGE IN TERMS OF DEVELOPMENT. NOT MUCH HAS BEEN DONE BUT THE LITTLE HAS LEFT OTHERS A MILLION MILES BEHIND, MAKING OTHERS LORDS AND GODS WHILE OTHERS ARE PEASANTS AND SERVANTS. TODAY AS WE LAUNCH THE PEOPLES' COMMITTEE HOMA BAY WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE EFFORTS OUR FORMER RIGHT HONORABLE PRIME MINISTER RAILA AMOLLO ODINGA WHO SAW IT FIT THAT KENYA DESERVES A BETTER GOVERNANCE AND QUALITY LEADERSHIP. IT IS OUR HOPE AS AN ORGANIZATION TO SEE TO IT THAT THE PEOPLE ARE SATISFACTORILY SERVED, THEY GET THE REAL DEAL NOT RAW DEAL AS WE HAVE EXPERIENCED. THE PEOPLES' COMMITTEE IS COMMITED TO TRANSPARENCY AND OPENNESS, WHERE INTEGRITY COUNTS AND DEVELOPMENT TOPS EVERY AGENDA ON THE ACTUAL GROUND WHERE FUTURE FOUNDATION IS LAID. IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT THE SITUATION MUST CHANGE AND THE PEOPLES' INTERESTS ARE GIVEN THE FIRST PRIORITIES IN EVERY MOVE AND EVERY ENTERPRISES BECAUSE WE ALL ARE EQUAL, WE ALL SHARE COMMON INTERESTS AND EVEN FEELINGS. THE PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THE POWER IN THEIR VOTES, THE PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THEIR POWER AS THE DECISION MAKERS AND WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING WE SHOULD BEAR IN MIND THAT WE ARE NOT BOTHERING ANYBODY, WE ARE NOT DISTURBING ANYBODY, WE ARE ONLY IN NEED OF WHAT BELONG TO US SO THAT WE TOO CAN SMILE AND SAY WOW! I WISH IT IS LIKE THIS FOREVER!
