Happy 48th Jamhuri Day Kenyans

Today Kenya turns 49. A journey that begun in 1963 after the end of the British rule in Kenya. It's been a remarkable journey with experiences and if we look back at how we've made it here we can plot our way forward. A lot has changed economically, socially and technologically and in all these our country has been improving.  The road has been tough and what we have done over the years defines what we are and have today. It is this growth over the years that gives us hope of a future. Hope that we can achieve our goals and realize our dreams in the years to come. Vision2030 Is hence achievable because of this. What we can do now is what's important and will matter for our future and generations to come.

As we Relax on This Jamhuri day what we should  all be aware that the leadership we have for our country is a big determinant of how we are going to achieve our goals.

At the moment there's concern by the IEBC and everyone else who's conscious about our country and it’s future (including me) of the poor turnout of people at their registration centers. IEBC reports 8.3 million registered voters over the last three weeks. The target is approximately 18million people so it means about 10 million people are still to be registered over the remaining time.
As I write this you only have 6 days to go to your nearest registration center and get registered as a voter. Please do and enlighten a friend, brother, cousin to do so cause the future depends on them.

Kenyans are Kenyans

To be optimistic I know that Kenyans will always be Kenyans and love to do things when they can see the deadline. I do believe than in the remaining days Kenyans will rush to get registered now that it's our way of doing things.
You may also use nimeregister to add a badge to your avatars on social media just to encourage that someone else to go get registered.
