Everyday industrious Kenyans wake up early in the morning and hurriedly rush to their favourite newspaper vendors to purchase papers of their choice. They don’t buy these papers for fun or as meat wrappers, they purchase these papers in the hope that the news they will meet inside will give them hope for a better tomorrow. Job opportunities being advertised, scholarships being offered and tenders available competitively.
But from the front headline on how someone is eating eat while others watch with their eyes to how a hairdresser managed to register twenty companies and wins tenders worth a billion and gets paid within months while a university graduate with an undergraduate degree in business management has never signed a single LPO worth fifty shillings since he left campus seven years ago, he realises that the word hope to him in this country only exists in the dictionaries.
