People only start talking against the government when they’re not eating like they used to, for example, during his Anglo leasing scandal days.

Jimmy Wanjigi is very informed when it comes to finance, I’ve already gotten a migraine headache to imagine that the government is borrowing and the money ending in a few pockets, very sad and that’s why Kenya and Africa will never prosper with these corrupt leaders.People we’re bashing Kibaki administration then cause everyone had money in their pockets except the lazy ones now they keep on remembering him.That’s the Kikuyu cow that’s being praised for lots of milk long after its dead.Very sad that the electorates fault, I once told them on social media the mistake they were doing by electing Uhuruto😢

Kibaki mind was superior to that of Jimmy. Kibaki was a first class honours graduate in Economics from a top university in UK as well as a lecturer at Makerere University. Kenyans don't know the value of brilliant minds and hand over their lives to people who tantillate them .

Man i love this man wanjigi, he discusses issues with so much intellect..

Hey, I thought Wanjigi was part of Ruto’s deceit I’ve trains prior to Ruto stealing the elections from Raila. Ruto is seriously insulting the late Kibaki because Ruto is NOT anywhere near Kibaki! Kibaki was a master planner and statesman, Ruto is not anywhere near there! Kibaki performed while Ruto is just a talker with milliards of empty promises! Ruto is a clear and present danger to anything Kenya, well including our young democracy!

So what we are getting to understand is that the SGR from Coast to Kanairo was done at 6 times the amount Wanjigi would have done the entire thing from Coast To Kenya-Uganda border. Plus we normally have two budgets, one presented to the public, and one that is used for siphoning money in the back seat. Kenya needs serious redemption. Only God can save this country otherwise, we are headed to economic turmoil.

Debt is not necessarily a bad thing. Money when borrowed can improve infrastructure and spur development. But it has to be planned and the potential for growth assessed. For example in a country like Myanmar with barely any industries, borrowing money to build wide roads is a foolish thing to do, but countries like Nigeria, India, Mexico can benefit from better infrastructure. Hard to say if Kenya belongs to the first or second set of countries.

The problem with Jimmy is not explaining the problem from when uhuru was. Ruto is borrowing to pay maturing debts. There is no other way. He is not giving a fair perspective.

This is how a good show just dies. The second it entertains incompetence more than once. . . ."Huge Red Flag" Sincerity doesn't trust twice. How media entrusts it's national reach microphone to a mindset that faults Uhuru's 8.66T working debt and growing GDP from 4% to 12.8%+, equating it to Ruto's failures is BONOKO THINKING. He said it then and now again that he saw promise in Ruto. What kind of competent sincerity still says, to this day that he or she saw promise in Ruto and his UDA. Ruto is not copying Uhuru - he is destroying everything Kibaki and Uhuru created.

SIR Jimmy much Respect.

As much as we live this guy, on the debt, we have maturing debt which we cannot repay meaning we must borrow to repay that perhaps explains the difference in the stated borrowing in budget and what treasury declares in the exchequer statement.

We shouted from the mountain tops that kenya should not be building roads at 2 billion a kilometer much more expensive than even europe. Tuliambiwa we are anti development we said the cost and strategy of SGR was flawed tukaabiwa we are online experts. Sasa people are crying but its too late u are not even feeling half the pain. Kenya needs to double its current taxes just to break even. Our kids will be the ones to solve this problem

if interest on debt is 10% of 9 trillion then the government over 10 years has repaid at least 7 trillion on interest only.hence the 6.4 trillion difference.but the local bonds/bills will be screwed over time no doubt, either by inflation or default.

His time to govern this country is soon coming...JW is a gem
