Hon Jimi Wanjigi is an astute busineessman, a progressive leader, a genuine refomer, a social democrat and a compasionate capitalist who will bring the Change Kenya seeks. In 2022 General elections Safina seeks to bring CHANGE. The change we seek to bring to Kenya is very fundamental. We want a revolution to overturn the corrupt status quo and to reenergise Kenya’s economic engine for the benefit of all Kenyans. We want to destroy the system of patronage and personality cult and to replace it with an egalitarian and just society – in which all Kenyans will be given a fair chance to grow personally and at family level. We will end the ruinous rule of kleptocrats and oligarchs in Kenya. We will end grand corruption and recover the stolen loot – and we will look for Kenya’s assets wherever they are being held abroad. We will offer good leadesrhip and install a culture that does not tolerate corruption in Kenya. To do this we are prepared to be ruthless and relentless. We have demonstrated our commitment to the rule of law and compliance with the new Constitution for which we were key advocates for a generation. We have taken disciplinary action against members who were errant. In other words we are uncompromising in defence of the correct way of doing things in Kenya.

If Kenyans trust us with leadership, we will abolish all forms of tribalism and discrimination from the lives of Kenyans and make it an obligation on all of us to think and act as Citizens First. Criminal law will punish those who persist in balkanisation and tribalisation of our Nation. If Kenyans believe and work for real change through Safina, we will make the Bill of Fundamental Human Rights real for Kenyans. The Safina Government shall work for the People and Kenyans shall not be slaves to the whims of the elected and appointed. The Kenyan future under Safina shall be one where there is rule of law. All including the Safina President shall be subject to the same legal obligations. The Government shall be subject to legal control. Commercial justice shall not be interfered with. The Market shall be made more efficient but also more transparent and monopolies shall be discouraged. Past corruption and human rights abuses shall be investigated and violators shall be pursued relentlessly until justice is done. Safina pledges that no stone shall be left unturned to ensure that Justice for All becomes the character and stance of the Government of Kenya. We will balance the National Budget and reduce the National Debt to relieve millions of suffering Kenyans form obligations they have not benefited from and to invest in them for their future prosperity.

Safina Party’s Foreign Policy shall be one of non-alignment and friendship to all democracies on Earth. We shall reserve and protect Kenya’s right to defend its territorial borders and national interests. We shall remain engaged and active in pursuing African solutuions for African problems; whilst participating and contributing fully to the advancement of World Peace and Global Security through the United Nations System Kenya shall play its part in addressing global crimes and will also support the International Criminal Justice System including the International Criminal Court and will cooperate to ensure that Kenya’s territory does not harbour any indictees for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Safina Party as the oldest democratic party is placing itself at the service of Kenyans in the hope that we will find favour from Kenyans at the next General Election. We thank our loyal members for their continued support and urge them to redouble their efforts to recruit even more Kenyans into our party. Now that we have complied with the Law, we are preparing to particpate in 2022 General Election. Safina Members are also encouraged to continue to diligently serve and protect the interests of Kenyans and democracy in Kenya. Join Safina today because you too deserve a chance.
