Dont let politicians name Kenya a hustlers nation, says Pastor Migwi

Nairobi Pastor Godfrey Migwi has faulted politicians who are riding on the ‘hustlers’ tag to endear themselves to Kenyan voters.

Migwi of the House of Hope Church says the said politicians are only taking Kenyans for a ride by using the name, adding that the term hustler is associated with poverty and evil.

“Kenyan’s don’t allow politician’s to name our blessed country hustlers Nation, they are not hustlers they want to own us, they want to baptize Kenya as the land of Hustlers. Again, hustlers is the name associated with poverty and prostitution it’s not good name to call a blessed country like kenya,” Migwi said on Sunday.

“We are a blessed land we are blessed people, we refuse our blessed country to be baptized politically in dirty poverty water.”

Deputy President William Ruto has been on the forefront in using the hustler’s tag which he uses to refer to his humble past.

Recently, Bungoma Senator Moses Wetangula lashed out at DP Ruto for using the hustler’s tag saying embracing the name is a way of celebrating ‘mediocrity at the expense of talent’.

“This is a character of celebrating mediocrity at the expense of talent. And that is why you see the kind of leadership in this country. A leader of this country stands and says I am a hustler. That is why people in this country no loner talk about earning money, everyone talks about making money,” said Wetangula at an event in January.
