THEE ALFA HOUSE

In the latest thought-provoking episode of Fanya Mambo Africa, Caleb Amisi, the bold and vocal Member of Parliament for Saboti, sits down with Sarah Mwangi to dissect Kenya’s political trajectory. From dissecting ODM’s internal contradictions, to why President Ruto isn’t the right leader, and what it will take to ignite real change—Amisi holds nothing back.

“The Time Is Now for a Political Revolution”

Amisi makes it clear: Kenya is ripe for a revolution. Not the kind driven by chaos, but by organized, visionary youth working within political structures to dismantle decades of recycled leadership. He says Gen Z sparked the movement, but now it’s time for strategy, unity, and leadership.

“You cannot succeed in a revolution without leadership. Youth must organize in parties, not just trends,” Amisi stresses.

ODM, Raila & Ruto: Speaking Truth to Power

A staunch ODM member, Amisi doesn’t shy away from criticizing his own party. He admits telling Raila Odinga to his face that the current political arrangement is failing Kenyans. While he respects Raila’s legacy, he insists that youth must take the next step.

Amisi also doesn’t mince words about President Ruto, calling him the wrong leader for Kenya and urging citizens not to repeat the same mistake in 2027.

“Kenyans hold all sovereign power. If you re-elect Ruto again, don’t expect me in the streets protesting later,” he says.

Who Is Kenya’s Next Leader?

Amisi throws his support behind new faces—those with integrity, vision, and a clean record. He praises Dr. Fred Matiang’i, Justice David Maraga, and Martha Karua, citing their discipline and strong leadership backgrounds. But most notably, he names Burkina Faso’s Ibrahim Traoré as the African leader he admires most, for challenging neocolonial interests and fighting for his people’s sovereignty.

A Warning About Civil Society & External Influence

Addressing the deportation of Kenyan civil society members from Tanzania, Amisi critiques what he views as misplaced priorities. He challenges activists to “fix home first” before involving themselves in regional matters. According to him, the civil society must remain accountable and avoid turning activism into personal brand-building.

East vs West: Kenya’s Foreign Policy Crisis

As a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee and a student of International Relations, Amisi reflects on Kenya’s erratic global positioning. From poor diplomatic choices to budget cuts in embassies, he warns that our foreign policy lacks coherence and risks damaging long-standing alliances.

🔍 Key Takeaways:

• Kenya’s youth must transition from protest to structured political leadership.
• Caleb Amisi opposes ODM’s involvement in the “broad-based” government.
• President Ruto is the “wrong man for the moment,” and Kenya needs a fresh start in 2027.
• Ibrahim Traoré is an African role model for sovereignty and anti-imperialism.
• Civil society must balance activism with accountability and purpose.
• Kenya must rebuild its diplomatic credibility and foreign policy strategy.
