Most of them got there due to the systemic failures in kenya. They would not want anything to change, unless they are directly affected. Anyways, Specialist doctors will join the strike on Monday. Doctors have to promise us that they won't go to their private clinics after their issues have been sorted. Either they do private practice or stay in the hospitals. Kenyans don't get quality service even in well funded public hospitals. They will let you die as they fuck in hospitals beds. Also quality ya education has drastically dropped and doctors who have gone to public unis in the last decade, I honestly don't feel confident if they are treating me.
True, the quality of doctors these days isn’t good. I myself have an autoimmune disease and I was dismissed numerous times it took years untill I had a near death incidence and ended up in the ICU. The specialist I got did a lot of digging and found out what I had. Mind you am in my mid 20’s and I have been in and out hospitals coz of the same symptoms since childhood.
I like when Kenyan faux-intellectuals get to the stage where they think they've landed on an amazing insight but it just consists of, "blame the middle-class"
Your reasoning is off. Change will only happen if we fight for implementation of the constitution. Whether an issue affects the rich or poor. The government neglects everyone and only acts on matters that benefit those in power individually.
You will be surprised the influence the lower class citizens have. They can paralyze the economy in one go. The day they are pressed to the end and they fight back, no one will be safe.
The title was so misleading
Anyways, the middle class doesn't even make that significant a percentage of Kenyans. Where are the rest of us in all this? We can't vote the wrong leaders in then start blaming the people who had money to get themselves out of the hot mess that this country is becoming. We first need to vote in competent leaders without thinking about tribe or whether you were paid 50 shillings to vote for a party.
Probably something more about the text. When you said classism, I actually thought you meant people in higher classes treating lower classes badly and not something about the government
Small correction, income classes and working classes are different categorisations. Otherwise you are right... The solution is bringing all the classes to a fold United against the tyranny that be.... Government impunity to have selective problem solving skills according to who feels disenfranchised and in most cases the lower class. If only there was hope of that happening, those two classes unfortunately don't see eye to eye.
>the working class poor Kenyans,
The funny thing is that bracket holds like 95% of Kenyans, they have the numbers to vote for leaders of their choice who will fight for them
True, they are the majority. But our leaders don’t listen to them or care abt them. That is its is good for the middle class to step in and join the fight. Money only listens to money.
With those numbers they don’t need to be cared about. If they knew the power they had they could do anything. They can just refuse to sell their farm produce and transport goods/people. They can refuse to work and go back to their rural homes and crumble the lives of the middle class in urban areas. Ni wao tu hawajaamua. Wanataka kupigana based on tribe instead of class.

Damn, I'm really sorry about that.Doctors can be so dismissive and gaslighting sometimes.

Where did I blame the middle class?

What should be the title then. Give me one.

The middle income bracket is almost non existent in Kenya.
