Foreign investors have started publicly shaming Kenyan Politicians who they deem corrupt. New Kenya?

Tatu City has publicly shamed and condemned Kiambu County Governor Wamatangi over extortion but Kimani Wamatangi is telling them to either apologize for false claims or go to court?
Is this the way to go?

Governers house may be unnecessary because they can live at their homes. But other public amenities are necessary. 2 acres of land for one persons house surely? Where those wazungus live, there is no such kind of opulence lifestyle at the expense of common man. Hope with time hope we will hear more from both sides. Anyway most public offices are very corrupt in Kenya. I remember three years ago I wanted to do some building work in Kariobangi. Nothing could be done until I met area chief and sub chief and give them their hongo. Otherwise they told me all building materials will be stollen. I wanted to give it via mpesa and then snitch on them but they insisted I pay them via mzee wa nyumba kumi. I really told that kijana mzee wa number kumi off.. After that, they called Council znd NEMA officials on me. I had met all requirements but they wanted 500k as well. I sent someone else to bargain and said they must talk to me. My representatives called me and I didn't know they were listening. I was soo shocked and angry at the amount of money they wanted. I told him to look for a buyer and sell the land because that was crazy amount of money. I also said that I was suffering from Corona and I would love to meet them and pass it on to them before I die. When they heard that they said I give them whatever I could afford at that time but watarudi baadaye. Corruption in Kenya is unofficially official wherever you go.

@GSM888 Please report the matter to the Ombudsman office (Office of administrative justice). The Commission investigates matters pertaining to MALADMINISTRATION (Improper Administration) in the Public Sector (Government departments). Maladminstration inckudes complaints about delay, abuse of power, unfair treatment, manifest injustice and even discourtesy (rudeness). Also, The Commission has the mandate of overseeing and enforcing the implementation of the Access To Information Act, 2016. The Ombudsman office in Kenya was set up in 2011. Its origins lie in Sweden, and it has been replicated in other parts of the world. Sadly, very few Kenyans know about the Ombudsman office, even worse there are few smarty pants who act as brokers (charge people to forward their complaints to the Ombudsman). Write to the Ombudsman (they take submissions ONLINE) and tell them of the difficulties (delay) you have experienced in regards to your ID application from the Ruiru office. They will write to that department asking for answers. Most bureaucrats in Kenya get away with murder because Kenyans never WRITE in to complain. But the moment a letter arrives, things begin to move because said bureaucrat doesn't want their personnel file sullied. Instead of complaining amongst ourselves, Kenyans must complain using the right channels!! Write in and then write back and let us know how it goes!!

I’m was foreign investor here. I pulled out after all the harassment and corruption from the county level. It’s obscene how difficult it is to try and negotiate the government graft here.

[@lucykamande8465]

Sorry about that.

[@jaywhoisit4863]

@@lucykamande8465 ya smaller scale but 28 people lost their jobs. It’s a shame these officials don’t actually care about community impact of their corruption. A Dutch friend of mine also packed up his company and left a few months ago. He employed around 40 people. Everyday is another official threatening and demanding bribes. It’s horrible to run a business here.

The whole of Kiambu gvt is rotten. Building approval will take ages to be approved. I have a friend who gave up totally in Thika because of corruption. It is very pure rot...

Lynn I want to applaud you for shining a light on the political situation in Kenya. It can be so easy and safe for personalities like yourself to stay away from so called hot button subjects. Be safe and be blessed.

Tatu city has a play ground , free swiming and gym for residence a whole park, hospitals, supermarket, restaurants, factories, storage units and many more coming. what is this governor saying? sometimes people just have to go and do their own research. I went there to check what the fuss was all about and that place is beautiful. They should not give in, wataharibu hio place kama kilimani.

[@Nyanchera-xx3jp]

They don’t want to free land laying around unfortunately. Congestion of buildings is the order of the day. Pollution is on the rise.

Just have to make sure that these amenities are not only reserved for expatriates and the locals are just there to clean them ,.. keep eyes open on both sides. Welcome and support investors but still look out for your own people

[@Crabtree1844]

Lynn: doing business cuts across the global if a nation wants to remain relevant and competitive. We cannot isolate ourselves from foreign investors and trade among ourselves. The problem is corrupt political leaders who enrich themselves at the expense of the electorate. Granted the 10% is lawful but governor's resident manenos is corruption and extortion. I am thinking said acreage should be a school, a museum, a library, an athletic training center, a local dispensary/clinic...etc. Something that the community can benefit from.

Lynn, please take note: The letter is dated "16th April, 2024." Then it reads, "following our meeting held on 9th December 2024 concerning the review of Tatu City Local Physical Development Plan, I wish to...." We are in the month of July 2024. What meeting did they hold on "9th December 2024"?

Let's not assume our leaders don't have personal interest... We all know .. how. Everyone wants to benefit from anything

You should only desire and acquire benefits that have been rightfully given or awarded to you but desiring and taking what’s not yours then it’s stealing.
