Some people are taking the leaders in this region head on asking them why they undermine each other yet leaders from other commu- nities support each other.

But Americans took it with their pride and decided to heal their coun- try and now US is back on its tracks as a great Nation. Kenya is a dynamic democracy where since the re-introduction of multiparty politics way back in December of 1991, ugly incidents of post-election effects affects the Nation with untold sufferings of the citizens. It may recalled that after the 1992 first multiparty election, tribal and ethnic clashes erupted in the Rift Valley where many people died and property destroyed. 1998 was the same as well as 2008. But after all these post election reactions, Kenyans were able to ab- sorb the shocks and continue with their lives normally and the Nation also picks itself from the ruins and prospers economically. It is more or less the efforts of leaders who come together and reason as Nationalists to put the country before personal benefits. We have succeeded before and even this time, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t. President Kenyatta has the soul to let Kenya be and talk to his supporters to let peace prevail just the way he had peace himself.

The measures taken by the government to turn around our economy may be painful but credible. As a nation, we must make hard de- cisions now and be candid, realistic, and pragmatic. Our tax base expansion, minimizing wastage, and prudent management of public resources are key. Let's stick to professionalism, transparency, and accountability in public service. The PCS urged the accounting and other professions to partner with the government in policy formulation and implementation for the government to collectively contribute in spurring the economic growth of our country.
