For a good number of years, politics in Kenya has been anchored on individuals’ ethnic orientations. Perhaps this is a confirmation and affirmation that the ideals of patriotism and nationhood strongly championed for during the independence period have been hijacked by the ethnic barons.
One socio-cultural aspect that we need to appreciate as a state is the ethnic diversity that prevails. We have perennially failed to embrace this opportunity and instead chosen to follow a dangerous path that can only be defined and described in terms of negative ethnicity.
