The self-styled NRM General Miguna Miguna differed with Slayqueen US Ambassador Kyle McCarter over employment.
The US Ambassador had congratulated president Uhuru Kenyatta for telling Kenyans that they don’t need degrees to be rich, giving the example of US technology greats, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates.
On this Uhuru had missed the point even by standards of an imbecile.
Social mobility in Kenya and US are different things altogether. Whereas USA is free and has ‘mechanism’ for anyone to rise from ashes to greatness no matter their family name, in Kenya one has to bend or lie horizontal in order to be fucked so as to be incorporated into the corrupt system.
All rich people in Kenya have affiliation to government. Outside, one cannot make it.
Uhuru and US Ambassador are misguided on these matters.
The US Ambassador posted
H.E. is right. One more masters degree does not necessarily improve your chances of a well paying job. Vijana, if you don’t see a way forward don’t run away. Jitafutie njia ya kuwa Jobs or Gates wa Kenya. pic.twitter.com/cSjsbfRpde

General Miguna perfectly answered this as below.
‘Ambassador MCCarter: Stop cheering up a despot. The idea of a Caucasian discouraging Africans from acquiring degrees is racist. You don’t do the same to jobless Caucasians. You urge them to get more knowledge. You should be telling Uhuru to create jobs for the Kenyan youth’ Miguna wrote.
