Pre-mature death

As a nation, we must understand ourselves fully and reform ourselves accordingly lest we become weak and infirm, stunted in growth, and end in premature death.

Unless we reform, unless we go through a period of self-assessment and extensive therapy, we will assuredly decay.

And when that happens, Kenya will have a reason to exclaim, in the sobering words of the poet, "Farewell! A long farewell indeed to all my greatness and my future aspirations!"
