@blackonbuzz: 'You cannot tell a hungry child that you gave him food yesterday' - goes one African proverb. Yet today, Kenya is letting its own children starve, just to feed the ghosts of its past. As @dianagichengo (X) and @TomOgada9 (X) from The Institute of Social Accountability here expose, the country is funnelling millions of shillings a year to paying the pensions of British colonial-era administrators (some of whom are suspected to be dead or entirely untraceable). Meanwhile, ordinary citizens suffer under budgetary shortfalls to education, health and agriculture. What are your thoughts on the ghosts of empire getting paid by Kenya’s treasury?
