Wake Up Call Message

Topic: President Responsibility, Liability & Accountability Management

Introduction

The President is more than just the head of state. They are a representative of the people, a symbol of national leadership, and a steward entrusted with upholding constitutional values. This responsibility begins with the oath of office, taken on a religious book, symbolizing both divine and civic accountability.

1. The President as a National Steward

The President must lead with transparency and service. Their duties include:

  • Making executive decisions that reflect the will of the people.
  • Fulfilling the four pillars of leadership: Manifestation, Mission, Ministry, and Manifesto.
  • Utilizing their term responsibly to deliver on their promises and build trust with the citizens.

2. Sober Decision-Making and Constitutional Alignment

The President is called to make decisions guided by:

  • The current national context and constitutional framework.
  • The greater public interest—not self, party, or private interests.
  • A commitment to constitutionalism, transparency, and public good.

3. The Misinterpretation of Article 131

Article 131 of the 2010 Constitution outlines the functions of the President. However, some misinterpret this to mean unchecked power. Misuse includes:

  • Exercising personal authority over institutional mandates.
  • Neglecting the boundaries of law for short-term political gain.
  • Allowing cults of personality to override democratic values.

4. The Challenge of Mindset Shift

The shift from the old constitution to the 2010 Constitution has not been easy:

  • Many leaders remain entrenched in colonial-era power mindsets.
  • The public still idolizes strongmen instead of strong institutions.
  • Accountability systems are weakened by political loyalty.

5. Learning from the Past, Planning for the Future

Kenya must learn from previous regimes and move forward by:

  • Examining mistakes such as corruption, tribalism, and misuse of resources.
  • Grounding future development on today’s lived realities.
  • Creating people-centered policies that serve future generations.

6. A Call to National Accountability

The opposition, civil society, and citizens play a vital role in keeping leadership in check. Their scorecard includes:

  • Social, economic, and political performance.
  • Psychological and emotional well-being of the people.
  • Equal access to national services and leadership opportunities.

Conclusion: The Wake-Up Call

This is a wake-up call to all Kenyans and especially those in leadership:

Leadership is not privilege; it is stewardship.
Authority is not ownership; it is responsibility.
The presidency is not a throne; it is a platform for justice.

Let us rise as a generation that values truth, service, and constitutional order—driven by vision and united by purpose.

Call to Action

  • To the President: Lead with integrity and obey the spirit and letter of the Constitution.
  • To Government Institutions: Protect democracy by checking excesses and promoting independence.
  • To the Public: Be alert, engaged, and courageous in holding leaders to account.

Wake Up Call Message: The Prophetic Message #FaithOurFoundation Introduction Whether seated in the Holy of Holies – the inner place of quiet counsel – or standing at the worshipping altar , we are builders and co-creators. Each of us carries responsibility, liability, and accountability for the service we deliver from home, office, or construction site. When we discover our personal and professional purposes, problems shrink to solvable challenges and solutions rise above self-interest. Problem In the built-environment ecosystem, the temptation is to satisfy our own interests at someone else’s expense. Obeying the Law & the Prophets , constitutions, policies, codes of conduct, contracts, and MoUs to the letter often feels like a mystery reserved for elites instead of common practice for all. Challenge We are called to radical empathy in daily business implementation. Ali...

Wake Up Call Message on Official Kenyan Noticeboard

Wake Up Call Message Topic: Official Kenyan Noticeboard Ref: Exodus 34:1-35 Introduction Kenya, a proud people's republic, stands at a defining moment. As citizens, we are constitutionally empowered every five years to elect representatives who enact orders and governance acts on our behalf. This is a sacred duty — one anchored in conscious judgment, trust, and transparency. Yet between elections, silence fills the space where accountability should reside. Our leaders continue to exercise dominance, but the people have no structured way to report, review, or reflect on the actual state of public service. It is time to establish an Official Kenyan Noticeboard — a digital citizen-profiled platform where both public and private staff can publicly air their thoughts, statements, and deeds. Problem Without a unified forum to track responsibility , liability , and accountability , our democracy is left exposed. Conflict is inevitable...
