Opposition coalition, National Super Alliance (NASA) strategist David Ndii now says that Kenya is headed in the wrong direction.
In an interview on Radio Citizen Monday, the renowned economist observed that the Jubilee government will soon completely lose grip of the nation's economy, should it not tame its borrowing appetite now.
With the government, just recently, acquiring another Euro-bond loan, part of which is to be used to pay initial credits, Ndii called for a change of tact.
He advised the government to improve and increase its income generating sources, failure to which, he said, it will land the nation into more debts, worsening the economy.
''The current economical unrest is as a result of the government's ever rising appetite for credit and will soon even worsen if not properly looked into,'' said Ndii.
''The Jubilee leadership has no option but to improve its income generating channels if it looks forward to improving the economy. The first step would be to increase the number of trains ferrying cargo along the new Standard Gauge Railway,'' he said.
Ndii also rubbished any possibilities of the recent truce between President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA leader reflecting on the same, saying that the state has to single-handedly address the issue.
''Odinga, even if he were to be included in the government, would not have much effect on the deteriorating economy. He has no ability to convince the debtors to cancel the money owed to them by Kenya,'' he added.
