Maso adziko lapansi adzayang'ana mwachiyembekezo pamene ovota akuponya mavoti osati a pulezidenti ndi wachiwiri kwa pulezidenti, komanso aphungu a National Assembly ndi Senate, abwanamkubwa a zigawo, ndi misonkhano yachigawo 47 ya dziko.
Ineyo pandekha ndidzakhala ndikuyang'ana ndi mpweya wabwino komanso ndi chiyembekezo cha kusintha kwamtendere.
Nthawi yamwayi iyi komanso kusintha kwamtendere sikunakhalepo nthawi zonse ku Kenya. Komabe, anthu aku Kenya akuvutika ndi mliri wa COVID-19, Purezidenti wazaka ziwiri Uhuru Kenyatta komanso mnzake wakale, a Raila Odinga, adaganiza kuti inali nthawi yoti agwirizane pazandale kuti atsogolere anthu mdziko muno kuti mawa achite bwino.
Kuti mawa pafunika atsogoleri okhazikika okonzeka kuika dziko patsogolo komanso patsogolo pawo. Chisankho chikachitika, tsogolo la dziko limadalira momwe lidzathetsere mavuto omwe akukumana nawo okha.
Lonjezo la chisankhochi ndilotheka kuti zotsatira zake zidzakhazikitsa bata la dziko komanso kusintha kosatha, kwabwino. Chiyembekezo chazachuma ku Kenya ndi chimodzi mwazomwe zikuyenera kukulirakulira pamene utsogoleri watsopano ukuchoka pamavuto azachuma padziko lonse lapansi. Dera longoyamba kumene la Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) likuperekanso ndondomeko yolimba ya kukula kwachuma ku kontinenti yonse, ndipo ngati itayendetsedwa mwanzeru, Kenya ikhoza kukhala adindo pantchito yake.
Monga umboni wa kuthekera kwa AfCFTA, Banki Yadziko Lonse idaneneratu kuti malonda pakati pa mayiko aku Africa atha kukula ndi 80 peresenti pofika chaka cha 2035, kukulitsa zotulukapo ndi pafupifupi US$450 biliyoni ndikukweza malipiro a amuna ndi akazi mpaka 10 peresenti.
Choncho, kudzipereka kwa dziko lino pa chitukuko cha zomangamanga za Kenya ndi kupanga malonda apakati pa Africa kumapereka mwayi wosintha mipata ya kontinenti m'magawowa kukhala chiyembekezo chopindulitsa cha ndalama. Kukula kungathe kubwera mwachisawawa kudzera mu "Made In Kenya" kapena "Made In Africa" komanso kudzera mu mgwirizano pakati pa anthu ndi mabungwe omwe ali ndi mabungwe ochokera kunja.
Mphamvu zaulimi za dzikolo ndi mphamvu zake za nsalu, komanso kuthekera kwake kokhala ngati gasi wachilengedwe (LNG), zitha kuthandizanso ku Europe chifukwa cha zovuta za nkhondo ya Russia-Ukraine. Kenya iyenera kukhala njira yopititsira patsogolo kutumiza kunja ku Africa konse komanso padziko lonse lapansi. Kukwaniritsa lonjezo limeneli kungathe kubweretsa chitukuko chatsopano m’dziko lonselo.
Inde, mwina nthawi yaku Kenya yafika.
Koma kuti dziko la Kenya liwonjezere phindu la malo atsopanowa, dzikoli likufunika atsogoleri odzipereka kuti apitirize kuyang'ana kwambiri pakupanga malo opangira zinthu omwe angathe kupanga ntchito zabwino komanso zokhazikika komanso zaluso.
Kupanga kwawoko kwatsimikiziridwa kuti kudzatsegula chitukuko chokhazikika, chaluso chapamwamba chomwe chidzafulumizitse dziko la Kenya kupita patsogolo pamsika wapadziko lonse womwe umasokonekera.
Palinso, palibe funso, njovu m'chipindamo. Chimodzi mwa zolinga zazikulu za dziko chiyenera kukhala kuthetsa ziphuphu zomwe zasokoneza chitukuko cha zomangamanga zaka zapitazo, chitukuko chomwe chikubweretsa ntchito ndi mabizinesi atsopano m'madera akumidzi.
Misewu yatsopano ndi madoko okulirakulira amakhala ndi mwayi wotsegulira njira yotumizira zinthu zambiri zopangidwa ku Kenya kumisika yakunja, koma pokhapokha ngati pali njira zodziwikiratu kuti zitsimikizire kuti palibe ming'alu yomwe ili m'dongosolo lomwe ziphuphu zatsimikiziridwa kuti zikukulirakulira.
Achinyamata ambiri ku Kenya, omwe akuyamba kumene komanso m'badwo wa digito, amamvetsetsa kufunikira kwa malingaliro anthawi ya 2022 monga kuchotsa katangale ndikuwonetsetsa kuti misika ikuphatikizidwa. Achinyamata aku Kenya mwina ndi amalonda ofunitsitsa komanso opanga mabizinesi padziko lonse lapansi, koma kuti achite bwino, payenera kukhala mwayi wopeza ndalama komanso kusokonekera kwa zopinga zosafunikira zomwe zalola kugwiriridwa, kukhumudwa kwabizinesi, kuwononga mwayi wopanga ntchito, ndikupanga zomvetsa chisoni. ubongo uyenera kuchotsedwa.
Dziko la Kenya likuyenera kufalitsa uthenga kuti onse amene akufuna kuchita bwino mdzikolo ali ndi mwayi wochita zimenezi. Izi zikutanthauza kulimbikitsa ubale wabwino ndi kasamalidwe ka ntchito, kulimbikitsa chitetezo cha ogwira ntchito, komanso kumvetsera kwa omwe akuchita ziwonetsero ndikuwabweretsa pazokambirana. Pokhapokha pamene maganizo a "Made in Kenya" adzabweretsa kukula ndi kulimbikitsa kusiyana, kufanana, ndi kuphatikizidwa (DEI) pachuma chamasiku ano chapadziko lonse lapansi.
Pachisankhochi komanso pambuyo pake, ndikofunikira kuzindikira kuti malonjezo a kampeni asamawoneke ngati mapangano okhazikika ndi anthu. Atsogoleri andale akale, ngati agogo a Raila Odinga, omwe asiya moyo wawo komanso nthawi zina ntchito zawo kuti athandize anthu onse, angamvetsetse kuti mapangano otere ndi achilengedwe, osinthika komanso osinthika.
Pofuna kulimbikitsa kudzipereka kwake pa nkhani ya umphumphu, kusamvana pakati pa amuna ndi akazi, ndi kufanana, ndili wokondwa kuona kuti wolemekezeka Odinga, yemwe kafukufuku wafukufuku wanena kuti adzapambana paulendo wake wachisanu, walandira Martha Wangari Karua kuti akhale mtsogoleri wake wachiwiri kwa pulezidenti. Amagwira ntchito bwino polimbikitsa kudzipereka kwa kampeni yake yopereka mphamvu kwa amayi, kuthana ndi ziphuphu, komanso kusunga ulemu wadziko.
Ndipo movutikira, kusunga talente yachinyamata kunyumba ku Kenya.
Pambuyo pa zaka makumi asanu ndi limodzi za ufulu wodziyimira pawokha komanso polimbana ndi kutukuka kwachuma komwe anthu aku Kenya akuwona pamaso pawo, pakadali pano, Kenya ikuwoneka ngati dziko lokhwima lokonzeka kutenga udindo wa utsogoleri mu Africa - ndi tsogolo lapadziko lonse lapansi.
