Practical steps crucial in attaining the status of a developed countryRecently, I saw a video clip of an Arab man from the United Arab Emirates in which he was saying that what Kenya lacks is not resources, but dedicated leadership. We have been considering ourselves a democratic country since 1992, but most Kenyans still languish in absolute poverty. A good example is the investment by the World Bank in the northern parts of Kenya. These are loans negotiated at very favourable rates.The planned road from Isiolo to Mandera would have significantly improved the economy of the northern parts of Kenya. A central command under a capable Government official from Northern Kenya under the guidance of the office of the deputy president could make it easier to implement this crucial project.
