Let me take this opportunity to say what a starehian 🙌🏾
Dr Julius Kipngetich made a distinction worth reflecting on:
“Singapore had clever government that is brilliant people managing the common services, and not sharp boys.”
There is a world of difference between sharp boys and brilliant people. Sharp boys know how to exploit opportunities for personal gain. Brilliant people know how to build institutions and systems that serve everyone.
Kenya needs brilliant minds managing public affairs, not sharp boys turning public office into a personal opportunity.View quoted post on X
