After a local meal for lunch, I relax
for sometime before getting back to my normal duty in building the
nation. In the 30 minutes break my mind is filled up with many
questions about making my life better but this one strikes them all.
The gap between the poor and the rich in Kenya, will this end or will
the poor have to work hard to get their? what can be done to
neutralize this gap?
You will first think that the gap is
not their or it is just in your village until you think about the
things surrounding you in the city. For instance when you get to a
big hotel, your access to it depends on how you are dressed, what you
got their with and more surprising some guards even judge you with
your body to let you in.
There are many things that can make you
realize that this gap exists. This weekend was the most proving
weekend for me on the issue through electricity blackout in two parts
of the city. Part one was Kangemi whose transformer faulted last week
on Wednesday but up to now it has not yet been repaired meaning that
the area residents have been in blackout in the better part of last
week. In Westlands a tree fell on an electricity pole on Sunday causing black
out in the area but it took less than 12 hours for situation to be
addressed and electricity was back in the area.
Something should be done to end this
gap but before something is done we should start it ourselves, Lets
make those who are less fortunate feel they deserve living, not
making them regret the live they live.
