The Future of Us is upto Us.

The future of Kenya is up to Kenyans. Whether we put in systems which grow and prospers Kenyan generation or burry our heads in the sand and let fate dictate our nation.

We need to reexamine our Pilar's of economy from infrastructure to technology. Some of our technologies are dated back to 80s when Kenyan population was 20milion, roads, education systems,rail transport,our health facilities and agriculture and agri Machineries, do they conform to the demands of this age and time? Do they meet the requirements of now.

I applaud education sector,the change in curriculum was long overdue, an education system which puts learners in the same pot and those who don't fit to the pot the system condemn them as failures as early as eight years in classroom or form four was failure. Education ought to be basic and every child ought to access it but with meritocracies and exam based curriculum the big population of learners whose talents and abilities are elsewhere will suffer lot. I personally have been waiting for a curriculum which accommodate all learners and give learners room to pursue their talents and passions.
We wasted much time learning parts of a grasshopper while nations we were with them economically early 80s are designing drones which can do human work like carry drugs from one health centre to another. Equipping learners with hand on technical and vocational skills to produce products to be supplied to countries who are still learning parts of a grasshopper ahaha.
We needed a curriculum which will produce graduates of various sectors of our economy.

Young people must use their hands to earn a living if they want to remain relevant in this competitive world.

White collar jobs are diminishing as blue jobs are growing everyday. Skill based jobs employing millions of people in the world.
The world is full of opportunities which requires skillful personnel to come up with solutions. Our focus,belief ought to change.
As an historian graduate take years to get employment, a carpenter, an electronist, a masonry,a tailor, a mechanic, a photograher,agribusiness persons reaps daily because they have skills which can solve somebody's problem. That's just but an example but that's the directions,there ought to be more skilled personel.
