chickenfeet: (death)
[personal profile] chickenfeet
Recent reports suggest around half the Kenyan government budget (much of it, of course, foreign aid) is being raked off. The government's cunning plan for tackling this problem is as follows:

1. Drive Anti-Corruption Commissioner into exile.

2. Threaten to charge anybody leaking information about corruption with treason, a hanging offence.

3. Threaten to arrest the British High Commissioner for going public on the problem.

Next steps; probably do a Mugabe and create a diversion by seizing white owned farms.

Expect reports of mass starvation sometime in the next two to three years.

From Friday's Times:

'... President Kibaki of Kenya is in a state of such despair over the failure of his efforts to stamp out corruption among senior government officials that the poor man has retreated to his bed, where he is reading P.G. Wodehouse to take his mind off his troubles.'

I have recommended to my project team that we should adopt this approach also.

Oh God, this really hit my funnybone somehow. The situation in Kenya is so dire and P.G. Wodehouse?

I´m going to recommend this to my project team as well. It seems like a reasonable approach.
