Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 81539, member: 636"] A former top judge says the country needs a constitutional reboot. David Maraga, leading the United Green Movement and running for president, laid out a platform based entirely on strict adherence to the Constitution, targeting corruption and failing public services. He described a national crisis with a dying economy that only benefits connected insiders while regular people fall into poverty. Maraga called the current healthcare system broken, blaming a shambolic insurance scheme for stealing billions, and warned that mismanaged education is risking children's futures. He framed the Constitution as a moral pact, not just a legal document. His idea of constitutionalism, or Ukatiba, means treating power as a public trust where no leader is above the law. He defined leadership as service, not a ticket to entitlement. For Maraga, corruption is the main enemy, calling it a moral failure that steals from the poor and wrecks institutions. He promised to let investigators, prosecutors, and judges work without any political pressure, insisting that integrity in government is mandatory because corruption dies under scrutiny. He committed to fixing shared power between national and county governments, demanding accountability at all levels. Reforms in education and healthcare were also pledged, aiming for equal access and guaranteeing no one is denied medical care due to graft, neglect, or being broke. His final push was for a collective return to constitutional principles, arguing the nation's future hinges on that shared choice, not any single person. [/QUOTE]
