Product Description

Most of Africa has been free from direct colonial domination for more than half a century. In that period, there are leaders who have inspired confidence among their citizens while several others have underwhelmed the citizenry. For Kenya and Africa to make progress, we must learn from our past lest we keep taking wrong turns we have taken in the past, time and again. Similarly, we need to take note of the times we have taken the right decisions so that we reap more from some choices we made in our past. It is in that spirit that Moi’s Kleptocracy and its Spillovers is written. In this book, Duncan Ndegwa recounts how President Daniel arap Moi’s post1982 coup attempt missteps led to an era that left Kenya hanging on a precipice in numerous ways. By the time Moi left power in 2002, vicious cartels of ravenous overlords had ravaged Kenya and turned it into private property. A sense of exclusion that ensued left many Kenyans in a state of utter despondency. The end of the Moi era marked a huge contrast from its beginning, which to many was associated with renewed hope. Clearly, the effects of the Moi era are yet to disappear from our national milieu decades after Daniel Moi relinquished power.
