Dear Mr President, may you live forever! Who am I to admonish your Excellency the President, Head of State; and Head of Government of Kenya, Commander-in-chief of the Kenya Defence Forces? Nevertheless, the political chessboard, which relays messages from the political heavens, has a letter for your consideration.

Note that 21st century Kenya has three segments: The Kenyans on the land, Kenyans in the diaspora, and Kenyans on social media. Facebook constitutes 50 per cent and Twitter 30 per cent of the 22 million Kenyans on social media.
