Youth Votes in Kenya

For the last 15 years, actually the last three general elections, the ruling government (KANU) used money to buy voters decision and during the last general elections, the youth decided that enough was enough, they wanted changes and thats what happened. A new government was brought to power.

With this in mind, this will be the first "money free" general elections since independence. I believe the youth will not vote for the money but for the development record and need to excel. For so many years we have voted for leaders who do appear only during elections and never to be seen again.

Soon will be reviewing MP's performance's and see who needs to be back to parliament and who needs to go home. Most of the sitting MP's are really scared of the forth coming elections for they know they will not be able to make it.
