UHURU KENYATTA & PROTÉGÉ MUDAVADI -
WEALTH- HOW DID UHURU ACQUIRE IT - AND WHY HE CAN AFFORD TO POURING $$$$ IN HIS CAMPAIGN
1. Kenya's Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta is the son of Kenya's first president, Jomo Kenyatta, and heir to some of the largest land holdings in Kenya.
He owns at least 500,000 acres of prime land spread across the country. The land was acquired by his father in the 1960s and 1970s when the British colonial government and the World Bank funded a settlement transfer fund scheme that enabled government officials and wealthy Kenyans to acquire land from the British at very low prices.
Uhuru and his family also own Brookside Dairies, Kenya's largest dairy company, as well as stakes in popular television station K24 and a commercial bank in Nairobi, among other interests.

2. In a WikiLeaks cable dated June 26th 2009, former US ambassador to Kenya Michael Ranneberger described Uhuru’s wealth this way:
“Although his wealth is the inheritance from his father’s corruption, the Kenyatta family still holds a special status”.
Yet another description from veteran Kenyan journalist and lecturer Joe Kadhi on his blog ‘Msemakweli’ goes:
“Among the haves, Uhuru represents the pinnacle of cornucopia. He has wealth he hardly worked for. Wealth that was acquired by his father through the use of despotic powers.
All this, when children of true freedom fighters are languishing in indescribable poverty, caused by the exploitation by the very people who opposed the fight for independence.
3. In November 2010, the online business magazine “Africa Investor” wrote that Uhuru had estimated his family’s wealth at $10 billion.
4. “investmentnewskenya.com” wrote that an American news magazine noted in 1979 that the Kenyatta family estate was worth $200 million. In a recent report by Kenya’s Citizen TV, the Kenyatta family’s wealth was more that $ 1.9 billion.
Uhuru Kenyatta Spending Sh 17 Million Every Weekend On Rallies
Go figure where the money is coming from ... oops! most Kenyans with common sense already know..
No need to add more.. is it a wonder that Uhuru Kenyatta can afford to pour $$$$$$ in the coming 2013 elections? does any Kenyans in the right mind think that this man named Uhuru with all the illegally acquired wealth is fit to run for the highest office in the land? only those who are delusional and refuse to accept facts and keep worshiping the ground that he steps on.. more a pity to them.
Picking Mudavadi as his protégé was not surprising since he can be controlled easily as rumour has it.
Compare Uhuru's Illegally acquired wealth to other presidential candidates? what? no such chance.. more a pity to them.. but the saving grace for them is that Kenyans will not be blind sided by those who riped the country dry since after independence.. a pity is to those MP's who can be bought very easily as rumour has it with these same wealth..
IS UHURU OR HIS PROTÉGÉ MUDAVADI SUITABLE TO BE PRESIDENT OF KENYA?
UP TO KENYANS TO GET THE FACTS AND MAKE INFORMATIVE DECISIONS..
NEXT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE PORTFOLIO TO FOLLOW.. "RAILA'S IS UP ALREADY WITH THE USUAL PROPAGANDA AND NONSENSE NOT FACT BASED
