Irungu Nyakera, Chairman of the Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA), has encouraged the public to be mindful of the country’s democratic process to prevent Kenya from resembling failed states. He emphasized the importance of avoiding a scenario where the international community begins discussions under the hashtag “pray for Kenya.”

KEMSA chairman warning
He warned that while online conversations, especially on platforms like X (formerly Twitter), continue, other countries enjoy their normal operations.
“As we exercise our democratic rights, let’s ensure we never get to a place where people tweet ‘Pray For Kenya.’ Their tweets end there, and their lives continue unabated,” he posted on his X account.

Nyakera reminded the public that the country has the chance to choose leaders every five years.
He lauded the public for questioning wastage and corruption, stating that these actions are what will change the country.

“Our elections come every 5 years, and we make decisions on who leads us at that juncture. I love that we have now normalized questioning wastage, corruption, and demanding accountability—that’s what will bring change to this country.
“But I do not support any actions that would drive our country to the list of failed states. And no sane mind should,” he concluded.

KEMSA chairman reaction

At the same time, the country has seen widespread youth protests against the Finance Bill 2024, which prompted President William Ruto’s decision to decline signing it into law.

The youth have also been vocal in their objections to budget allocations, particularly those related to State House, the Office of the Deputy President, and residence renovations. Demonstrations persisted into Thursday, with calls from the youth for President William Ruto to step down from office.
