This is What China's Influence in Kenya may do to Kenya's Lake Victoria and other sources of water

From: Lucia Akech

The Chinese and the West do not give a damn about Kenyans except the ruling elites who are eager to help them acquire public land and infrastructures in exchange for bribes.
 
Please, young Kenyans,  be patriotic. Unite and get these ruling thugs, their families, friends and  foreign supporters out of land grab business before you and your offsprings are sent packing to the slums like Kibera and Mathare.
 
Few of these ruling elites,  60+ years old, have the required vibrant brain capacities to understand the implications of the "Global Economy" in which Kenya has found itself. They are too old to think constructively. Some of them have amassed so much wealth through corruption that their desire to hung on to power is motivated by their willingness to use violence to suppress the rest of the Kenyan population to protect what the have grabbed since 1963.  None of them is patriotic enough to protect the wanainchi.
 
Dominion Farms LTD  in Yala may be the beginning of the end of Lake Victoria. There is a fierce fight to acquire this pristine piece of property by foreign players and all it may take could be some bribe and a signature by some elite in power right now.  Read the story in the link below to get a clue about what the supporters of this project should be afraid of.

Further more, be aware of  the "get rich quick" younger flunkies who are blindly forming dangerous liaisons with rogue foreigners whose major aims are  to engage in phony land grab schemes.  Remember, countries go to wars because land! Do not dish it out for free by engaging in shady deals with foreigners.
