According to Morara, the jobless Kenyan, poor farmer or overtaxed employees vote for corrupt leaders.
“The jobless Kenyan or poor farmer or overtaxed employee is the same one who is voting for corrupt leaders,” Kebaso stated.
He questioned how the same Kenyans responsible for electing corrupt leaders can be helped when they are the underlying cause of the problem.
“Tumsaidie aje sasa (How do we help such a person)?” Kebaso said.
Heartless like politicians
The activist recently called out Kenyans for how they respond to accidents.
“As a nation, we have a bad culture of letting people bleed to death on the side of the road during accidents. We just surround them, taking pictures and arguing about who was coming from where,” he said.
Kebaso opined that Kenyans are as heartless as their leaders, citing his observation of how victims of accidents are robbed in some cases.
“No vehicle or motorcycle is willing to carry a bleeding person to the hospital. In some cases, we even rob the dying person of their phone or money. Very few people have first aid skills, which should be a basic lesson in every school and every grade of learning. We are heartless just like our politicians. Or politicians are heartless just like their voters,” he concluded.
Kebaso’s rise
The activist became a popular figure in the country due to his fierce criticism of the government and civic education.
Leveraging on the power of social media, Kebaso, the youthful politician traversed the country, exposing stalled government projects in his initiative dubbed “Vampire Diaries”.
His activities were supported by well-wishers, with the activist registering a party named Injection of National Justice, Economic and Civic Transformation (INJECT) to shape Kenya’s political landscape.
He, however, encountered fierce criticism, which took a toll on his personal life and left him battling depression.
“When the government saw the impact of the Vampire Diaries in exposing theft of public money, they hired thousands of my fellow youth as bloggers to destroy my reputation. My weakest point of attack was the fundraising for fuel,” he said.
“I was trolled to depression. A man who had worked hard all his life for his property was painted a conman, a beggar and a swindler. I had to leave my family WhatsApp group. I stopped going to church because I felt the world saw me as a fraud.”
