We, Kenyans in the diaspora, are committed to transforming Kenya into a better country for all Kenyans. We embrace the 2017 Jubilee manifesto of Continuing Kenya’s Transformation, Together.
The Jubilee government has built a firm foundation of development. We should give Jubilee time to continue this work for the next five years. Over the last five years, Jubilee has learned a tremendous amount about what works and what does not work in education, infrastructure, health, and the economy. We ask Jubilee to put that learning to work and guide Kenya into new heights of prosperity.
We believe that strong partnership across ethnic groups in Kenya will propel Kenya to higher economic and peaceful levels. We, therefore, support Jubilee’s engagement with all communities and look forward to improving on women's and youth's involvement in decision making and sustained efforts to eradicate corruption.
Below are highlights of some of Jubilee’s accomplishments:
- Rural electrification with over 1.5 million connected with electricity in their homes irrespective of class or tribe. Reuters reported that it took the United States two decades to achieve what Kenya will achieve in about seven years!
- The recent Standard Gauge Railway that will help expand Kenya’s market in Africa and the rest of the world.
- Free maternity care that ensures all mothers can give birth without worrying about a medical bill.
- Fighting corruption by auditing cabinet secretaries. Fighting corruption is a work in progress!
- Ensuring implementation of devolution as stipulated in the constitution.

You know where to find us. Also, we don't have to be in the same group to support UhuRuto. All of us are doing what we can to get Tano Tena. Peace and blessings as you work towards that goal.
Is TRANSFORMING Kenya into a Hub for CORRUPTION good transformation. Nope! This is why I am for RAILA for PRESIDENCY (muibe musiibe).
Daniel,
Diaspora is huge, in the U.S alone, its coast to coast. Please get in touch.
Same goal, same purpose.
Thank you.

I take issues with your comparing USA to Kenya-.."took USA two decades to achieve what Kenya has achieved in seven years". Is USA the standard measure of achievements? Cann't we independently lead the world and make ourselves the measure of achievement? We do not have to reinvent the wheel. In other words the technology available in USA is also available in Kenya. We should be able to be as good as USA now.Why not?
If your response is that we dont have"brains like the USA",then I will sit down.
Since I'm always wary of "groups" - I will cheer on the side and allow my relatives who are directly affected by Uhuruto policies to be more immersed in campaigning. Meanwhile let me join a group MoCo govt that directly affects me :-)
Who the heck told you the diaspora supports this incompetent UhuRuto duo for another 5 years? Are you guys ok upstairs? Come on.....this is a sissy, tail-between-the-legs president who shamelessly asked Kenyans,"mnataka nifanye nini?" on the spiraling corruption that has so terribly messed up our country. He's presided over several stinking scandals where massive amounts of public funds have been misappropriated, including, but not limited to the recent Afya Clinics debacle, the yet-to-be accounted for European Bond issue, the so-called SGR highly overpriced project where suspicion stinks all the way to high heavens, etc. Uhuru is a coward, period! A coward who cannot and will not firmly and decisively address the corruption that so much defines his rogue administration. It's high time he and his equally incompetent teammate Ruto went home wakafuge mbuzi. In this day and age, more than 50 years after independence and with all the technology in the world today, why are Kenyans starving from hunger? Why? See, we are lead by supposedly intelligent "leaders" but when it comes to solving some of the most basic, most pressing problems afflicting ordinary Kenyans, they got zero solutions. If I were a leader, these are the issues that would keep me awake at night, Alfred Mutua-style! It is very unfortunate that the majority of our citizenry are dumb to the point they cannot see the crafty games played on them by successive governments since independence. It is even more depressing to see some here in the diaspora fall for the same trickery, even folks with the "Dr" title in front of their names (although I realize they are either fake, or got their credentials from some of these backwater institutions of higher learning here in the US)
I wish Uhuru and Ruto could be shown the door and although I don't have much faith in Raila and his cohort, at least it'll usher in some new thinking, some new way of doing things and hopefully, we'll start getting at the bottom of what ails the country. Uhuru and his men are simply out to protect their loot and that of their fellow hyenas who have been slowly killing our lovely country. I call upon everyone with some sense of rationale to come together and help hound them out of office asap come August 8th 2017
Mlachake. You just hit UhuRuto and Their Supporters below their belt. Good job 100%.
Mlachake please read our constitution very well the way
Umesoma ya Usa naukaielewa??When Uhuru asked mnataka
Nifanye nini,he knew what he was talking about but foolish
Educated Kenyans like dwelling on that shit n the constitution doesn't
Give the prezzo powers like before to prosecute n force for investigation.
We copied the white man law which as we have seen with opposition going to courts even when somebody peees in Uhuru park to challenge it.
If we want the prezzo to b like mafuguli to fire pple foolishly or to shoot pple straight on with bullets let's give him the powers back which were in the old law.So please let's grow up read the constitution understand it before payukaring even if it was raila there is not much he can do but to ask his cabinets who r tainted to step aside???But it seems the educated pple continues showing umbongolala mwingi.Watu wasome sheria waelewe period.Uhuruto will win with 70+1 n the hyners will continue to say it was rigged.God of kirinyanga bless kenya
Mkenya halisi. Does the Constitution of Kenya Advocate for Incompetency and Corruption that has been Jubilee's Mediocre Performance for 5 yrs? and
For those questioning the existence of UhuRuto Tano Tena because you were not consulted, know that we want the same thing -- the reelection of UhuRuto. We can't all belong to the same group. It is great you have another group in Boston! More power to you.
For the critics, we do not represent the entire Kenyan diaspora, no one does. Look at the achievements we listed, and add direct flights between Kenya and the US. To fly home directly will be a blessing. UhuRuto deserve Tano Tena to continue the good work they are doing.
Pauline Muchina. UhuRuto were Never Elected to be sincere. How in the world did Uhuru get 53,000 votes in Tiaty Constituency in 2013? (yet only 15,000 votes were cast; and this happened nearly Everywhere in the Country). So stop making Fools of Yourselves (thinking you're fooling those of us who know better.
I have been working and organizing members of the diaspora in campaigning for Uhuru and Ruto little did I know there is an organizing committee. Where was this group when we demonstrated against Raila in Boston. Where was this committee when we went for official launch of the SGR. I think I need to be included in the committee so that we are on the same page. My 2 cents.
