Kenyan youths cry foul over President Uhuru's parastatal appointments

Kenya: The latest appointments to the boards of parastatals by President Uhuru has raised disquiet among the public. I have seen part of his bedrock of support particularly the youth crying foul. A scan on social media shows that even some of his fanatical supporters from his backyard particularly the youth raising concerns. I have followed some of his supporter’s comments for a while and I’m intrigued by their sudden posture.

I would like to however point out that the appointments are political just as anything that happens in Kenya system of governance remains political. It is also local as all politics is local. Well, I have seen comments that the appointments are a recycling of politicians, reward of cronies and names from big political and economic families in the country.  The government machine has also said that they represent the face of Kenya as they cut across the counties in Kenya, nay tribes.
