KENYA HAS DECIDED: IT’S A NEW CONSTITUTION.

Activity on twitter is starting to increase as Kenya gets a new constitution as per the provisional poll results. It is, at this hour safe to say that the majority of Kenyans have chosen to go green. The mood is great. Most people are lit with hope as this move by Kenyans affirms the theme of change in this country. Celebration will certainly begin at sunrise and the day is most probably a public holiday.

The excitement will be immense, but Kenyans must remember and never forget 2008. Peace and Unity were preached before the poles and must remain after. We must accept this results even as they get confirmed. PEACE is key for change.

Let us also realise that this is also just the beginning of a long journey to the Kenya we have dreamt for. There is tonnes of legislation to take place and so much reform to be undertaken. There are so many promises made to the No camp, especially the church of abortion, to be carried out. I think the next couple of years may be harder than Kenyans may think, but a brighter and more prosperous Kenya will ease the pain.

This has been a long painful strugle for many veterans and I, as a young Kenyan bound to enjoy the fruit of their labor, am grateful to them; for all the cold nights in detention, the painful days in Nyayo House torture chambers and the lonely years they spent away from their families in exile. THANK YOU ALL.

The IIEC has also carried out the most independent electoral process in Kenya since independence, and for that HONGERA.
