We must borrow the wisdom of our forefathers to win current battles

Our country is under siege, confronted by very strong enemies who, just like our forefathers, threaten our survival and that of our progenies.

Many years ago, our forefathers, fed up with with the British riding roughshod over them, decided to turn the tables. The colonialists had dehumanised Kenyans for long and were determined to keep them under their heel until kingdom come.

They had robbed our people of their fertile lands and forced them to labour in the farms for a pittance, egged on by the whip hanging over their backs. They had robbed our forefathers of their dignity and humanity. They had robbed our forefathers of their culture. They killed and maimed our forefathers who dared to question these evils. The colonialists were on a brazen robbery with violence spree.
