Milestones To Ethnicity Extinction

By Wacera Kariuki

This book explores Kenyan ethnicity as a cultural tool wielded by political machination. The author Wacera Wa Kariuki here addresses the reality of the Kenyan divide as the inequalities created by key political icons shortly after colonial rule.

Contrary to popular belief, inequality was that of age and not tribe. The writer highlights the youth problem as the Kenyan challenge and not ethnicity. Although politicians do not outline this fact, she believes that this is the real battleground for the nation of Kenya.

As her youth are continually subdued, politicians pay the piper for the continued disenfranchisement. Kenya, therefore, succumbs to the frantic political delusion which parades tribesmen in the top seats as ideal. Whereas this is a side-effect of the real struggle that itself seeds corruption and impunity.

The writer goes ahead to explore the milestones she envisaged and elucidates the roles that each group in the society has to play so that the focus on ethnicity can be diffused as the country settles down to address the real problem areas.
