Blackmail, Hate and Intimidation continues to hail Kenya Politics

Widespread criminality, coupled with systematic blackmail, plays a significant role in the governance of the Republic of Kenya. I am making a case for this catastrophic phenomenon. The government exit preferences to act with impunity at will, disregarding the very same constitution that it swore to uphold, at the very expense of it citizens.

The state  exploits this preference to its advantage by tolerating crime while gathering evidence to use for coercion among the top ‘big’ fish’. High levels of crime exist alongside substantial police expenditures. Only the wealthy, and not the impoverished, are permitted to engage in criminal activities, thereby exacerbating inequality.

Kenyan politics has long been characterized by ruthless and contentious practices. In record time, numerous political analysts worldwide have described the Kenyan police as the most formidable force in global politics. As a republic that enjoys constitutional democracy, Kenya should have made significant progress in achieving good governance and accountability, which could effectively lead to greater economic prosperity.

However, Kenyan politics currently lacks objectivity. Intimidation, blackmail, and hate are the sole elements I associate with the Kenya Police. The typical Kenyan politician consistently seeks opportunities to secure questionable agreements. Pathetic, isn’t it?

There is significant blackmail, intimidation, and exploitation of the criminal justice system to coerce individuals, particularly those with opposing views. While Kenya possesses one of the best-written constitutions in the world, the implementation is not proceeding as expected. We are continually presented with numerous instances of abductions, coercion, and intimidation each day. I strongly believe that Kenya should begin to approach politics with objectivity. I reject the assertion that power, in and of itself, is detestable without the means of influence or coercion. It cannot be that enticing.

My point is that we must stay objective about the nature of power, its implications, and how men use it to achieve outcomes that lead us to become subservient to it. I believe that objectivity concerning the aforementioned questions enables a deeper understanding of their significance and the connections to higher levels. Maintain objectivity in these matters, avoiding any elements of subjectivity, to remain focused on the goal of political power rather than the power itself.
