No time frame • President William Ruto is promising to move the country to First-World status, but he’s not saying when this will happen, says Githuku Mungai. “I like a President who has a firm grasp and not one who gets overly excited about things. And what will be our projected per capita income in that year when this big change will be made?” His contact is [email protected].

No injunction • As the Rironi-Mau Summit road construction is becoming a reality, Joseph Macharia is praying that no one goes to court to stop it. “This has become common with major government projects. Even the Thika Superhighway faced many litigations, but was eventually implemented. I hope this one will also weather any challenges.” His contact is [email protected].

Road mess • Haile Selassie Avenue in Nairobi, from Muthurwa flyover to Railways headquarters, is in turmoil, says Joshua Mwabali. “Thanks to Governor Johnson Sakaja, something is being done about it. But who is responsible for the EasyCoach terminus area and Rongai matatu stage? When it rains you need gumboots and when it’s sunny, brace yourself for dust.” ([email protected])

Two-wheel mayhem • Boda boda riders are notorious for causing road accidents through recklessness, and abetting crimes, says Paul Khaemba. “The crackdown on errant motorcyclists with stiff penalties has not yielded much. Their actions, including attacking motorists after accidents, are sickening. Can they ever stop causing the mayhem?” His contact is [email protected].

Unconventional • The Anglican pastor’s preaching in Eldoret nightclubs despite criticism from fellow clerics is a bold challenge against status quo, says Edwin Kariuki. “It redefines what it means to spread the gospel. He’s seeking lost sheep, sowing seeds for a future harvest just like in the biblical parables, and conveys the message that God’s love is everywhere.” His contact is [email protected].
Have a godly day, won’t you!
