Odhiambo,

Are you the source of this email. This is what you have written/send:

'A vote for Uhuru Kenyatta will mean the cost of living going up because of sanctions that will be slapped on us by the west.Bread will start selling at Kshs 1200/-, Milk at 1500/-, Unga at 2500/-, Petrol at 7000/- per litre, Parafin at 6000/- per litre. It will also mean your monthly rent of Kshs 5000/- rising to 30000/- per month.'

A big joke and total lie, especially from a peace crusaider like you! What an embrassement? Oh, poor Kenya!

As an educated Kenyan, an economist for that matter, I want to ask you a few questions:

1. How did you arrive at the figures?

2. Did you simulate? Using what model?

3. Under what assamputions?

4. Do you know very well Kenyan's fiscal data?

4.1- how much we get from donors?

4.2- taxes as a % of our total budget?

4.3- how we finance our budget?

I think a few Kenyans, including myself are better than what we are being treated for.

I have always felt in love with you for just being a peace crusaider! Please know that circulating such emails is a form of violence and goes against all the good work that your group has been doing.

In kindness, Fredrick Wamalwa

Friends,

Sometimes it is good to be very clear.

A vote for Uhuru Kenyatta will mean the cost of living going up because of sanctions that will be slapped on us by the west.

Bread will start selling at Kshs 1200/-, Milk at 1500/-, Unga at 2500/-, Petrol at 7000/- per litre, Parafin at 6000/- per litre.

It will also mean your monthly rent of Kshs 5000/- rising to 30000/- per month.
Is is really worth it?

Again, we have just been told that the Central Bank coffers are empty. Can you surely trust these guys with Kenya and our future? Think of the Foreign Exchange saga. Think of the Budget errors. Think of the land issue.

Uhuru should go solve his issues at ICC and come back. Once cleared, I will vote for him in 2030. But as at now, I must not be part of his tribulations even as I sympathize with him. He should face his issues like a man. He should not commit mass suicide with Kenyans.

But as at now, I will vote for stability and posterity. I will vote for Raila Amolo Odinga and his Team because my vote has very clear consequences on my life.
