THE REIGN OF MIX

With less than thirty working days to the awaited Moi University Shoppers Organization (MUSO) election, the political divide among comrades is evident. Comrades are already supporting their tribes (wo)men in the name of our tribe must be represented. So unfortunate.
The word mix has become so common, common than the common courses offered in the faculties. Comrades prefer mix to policies. Believing in what a 'polititian' can do to comrades before elected than after elected. They say that SGC is not for the poor since they are a threat to MUSO kitty. In other words, all aspirants are the same except their bank and financial statements.
It is so unfortunate that majority of comrades have ceased thinking of electing leaders who can represent them and who can advocate for the well being of the union. Our main point of focus is in the number of crates of sodas they can buy, rather than the content and what aspirants know of the union. Am yet to see an aspirant who has something substancial to offer apart from sodas and settling bills in robpol hotel. Am yet to hear an aspirant planning to bring investors and motivational and career speakers to main campus. Someone planning to bring a cooperate to main campus. But the kind of aspirant we interact with, none is thinking of such. It is time we start thinking beyond proposals and mix.
Moi University should undergo a political reassertion for comrades to elect and have a good student governing council (SGC) and not selected group of cowards (SGC) as we have. If we continue electing people based on their tribes and coalitions, i can place a sure bet that ten year to come there will be no change in leadership style. The percentage of impurity in our mind is so high.
