In conjunction with MOPA, the Movement for Political Accountability , we are planning a public action on Tuesday a.m. against plans for a bloated Cabinet.
PLEASE COME in large numbers AND PLEASE WEAR BLACK TO MOURN THE GREED OF THE POLITICAL CLASS!!
We will convene on TUESDAY morning, April 1, 2008 at Freedom Corner at Uhuru Park at 10:30. Prof Wangari Maathai is keynote speaker so we will also plant a tree. We are also inviting the religious groups, who have spoken out against a bloated cabinet, for outreach.
We will then march to Harambee House with a stopover at Parliament. Exact details to be given on the day.
We are advocating a maximum of 24 under the slogan "No more than 24". That hopefully gives space to those who think we need 15 or none at all. Please feel free to think up any other slogans along those lines and bring placards (maybe something to do with April Fools??). We are having some made. It may be too short notice for T-shirts but we will try.
Mobilise your networks and remember rain gear if weather looks tricky.

Can you also demand a clean cabinet? What use is a lean cabinet of thieves and murderous?
Be different, demand a lean and clean cabinet. People with pending corruption cases and who financed massacres in January should nob be named ministers at all cost.
But is the civil society really neutral?????
Yes, very good point! Let's just start by making sure there are not too many of them and then we can deal with the ones that are there. Please do sign the petition directly about the proposed fat cat Ministries and leave this remark there. Thanks!
