Join the movement today. Let’s help change Kenya. Tuko Pamoja!

1963 Was Not Freedom. It Was a Baton Pass.

In 1963, Kenya was handed its “freedom,” but what did it really mean? The currency changed, but the theft remained. Colonial administrators made way for local cronies, and British companies were replaced by Kenyan elites. Yet, despite the political shift, the majority of Kenyans are still waiting for the promises of independence to come true.

The Reality on the Ground

While the political elites drive past open sewers in tinted Prados, the people in Turkana are still walking on roads that look more like footpaths. Hospitals in rural Kenya still refer patients to prayer, while nurses are striking for months, and teachers are still buying chalk with their meager salaries. In Nairobi, MPs earn in two months what a clinical officer earns in two years. This is not democracy. This is abuse disguised as elections.

Broken Promises in Education

Kenya’s universities, once heralded as beacons of hope, are now crumbling institutions with broken labs and peeling paint. Graduates are left walking to job interviews with CVs in brown envelopes, only to meet someone’s cousin already hired for the position. Youth across the nation don’t need another summit—they need people to stop stealing HELB funds. They need working taps, not fake ribbon-cutting ceremonies.

Healthcare in Crisis

Kenya’s healthcare system is a joke—except it’s not funny. Health, not sickness, is the issue—yet no leader in Kenya seems to care unless it involves flying to India for treatment. We’ve had ministers running the health docket like a side hustle, while clinics operate without gloves and wards sit empty of drugs. Fully-funded health budgets are published, but they remain a comedy—and tragedy—of empty promises.

A Silent Movement for Change: WantAmNotAm

Enough complaining. Few are acting. That’s why platforms like WantAmNotAm are crucial. WantAmNotAm is not just another social media platform—it’s a place for real action. It connects those tired of shouting into the void, those who are not filtered by blue ticks, buried by algorithms, or drowned out by sponsored posts. It’s a space where young Kenyans can draft county-based demands, trade real solutions, and get heard without needing permission from the elite.

WantAmNotAm is a gathering point, a hub of genuine conversation, and a call to action for all who want to make a difference. It’s about connection, coordination, and finding real solutions to Kenya’s biggest challenges.

A New Way Forward: Empowering Communities

Post an idea on WantAmNotAm, and someone in Kitale will see it. Another in Voi will test it. Someone in Kericho will share it. No likes. No fake clout. Just real activity, real engagement. A boda guy suggests a village water fund, a nurse refines it, and a carpenter funds it. That’s how change begins—from the ground up.

This is not about influencers, politicians, or viral hashtags. It’s about the people—the youth—finding each other and taking action. No protests, no noise, just quiet planning and real change.

WantAmNotAm isn’t here to trend; it’s here to replace what failed. If you’ve ever walked into a government office and walked out with nothing, this is for you. If you’ve ever struggled to survive on air-time sales or watched your parents beg for medical attention in a public hospital, this platform is for you.

No More Empty Promises

This is not a campaign. It’s the end of handouts, the death of fake politics, and the rise of working solutions created by you. No selfies. No suits. Just people, coming together to build what the government won’t.

Log in today. Drop the jokes. Write something real. Read what others have written, add to it, correct it, and build it together. WantAmNotAm is your platform for change. It’s where solutions are forged without the need for likes or retweets. It’s time to fix what has long been broken in Kenya.
