"content": "When they brought in the SAPs, it was to try and take back all the corporations so that we became dependent on them and their Multinational Corporations (MNCs) could come to our countries and take over our economies. Our elites were even smarter than that. They began taking over those strategic companies themselves. If you go to the United Kingdom (UK) you will realise that the British Telephone (BT) can never be privatised. It is always Government- owned and so is the British Railways. You cannot take away such strategic institutions that deal in railroad and communications and privatise them; they are supposed to be run by government parastatals. Now that we have privatised them, the elite went further to create IPPs to deal with the demand for more power for industrialisation and other economic developments in the country. They got into contracts with Kenya Power. These contracts are one-sided. They are determined, dictated, and forced by the political leaders of this country."
