The story of KQ is the story of almost every sector in Kenya. We Kenyans have to understand this if we are to get closer to the root of corruption.

Let me tell you the common signs. #fallofthepride
1. Boards full of financiers and no experts in the service that the company offers

2. CEOs who are literal super stars, talking in the media about the great expansion programs they have

3. The assumption that expansion is necessarily improvement and success #FallOfThePride
4. Retrenchment of seasoned staff, flight of others, and the replacement of those seasoned staff with highly paid administrators and inexperienced juniors

5. Madharau for Kenyan experts. Typical Kenyan behavior of preferring foreigners #FallOfThePride #maishakazini

.@johnallannamu I revive my offer to give a cultural interpretation of these mega scandals. #fallofthepride is a typical story of theft sold to the public with the big dream, neoliberal narrative. We get conned not only because of the theft. The thieves also cook up a good story.
.@johnallannamu The "buying spree" belongs to the neoliberal narrative as motivational speaking and prosperity gospel. All of them are about being positive, seeing the best in people... they dump the seasoned professionals because they see through the bs #fallofthepride
.@johnallannamu 2010 was a year of all that be positive junk. It was even in universities. Check the Mugenda miracle of KU as well. It was the time CEO's could do no wrong, helped by your peers in the mainstream media houses. #fallofthepride
