Men, sometimes I genuinely sympathise with MPs and politicians because the financial pressure around them is insane. Give an MP Ksh. 500,000 today and it may not survive ten minutes once funerals, harambees, school fees, medical bills and endless personal requests start coming in.

By the time they wake up, some lazy people are already at the gate expecting breakfast, lunch, supper and transport money, while the usual chokoraas and joyriders trail them everywhere like dogs waiting for handouts.

Unless an MP has a serious, sustainable business or another sharp source of income, things are very bad out here. Politics may look glamorous from a distance, but maintaining that lifestyle can swallow money faster than people imagine.
