Background (Preamble):

Security guard Rebecca Kerubo Morara claims she was intimidated with a pistol by Baraza when she sought to frisk her on New Year's Eve. Baraza accepts there was a dispute but denies threatening the guard with a gun. Morara recorded a statement at Gigiri Police Station in the Occurrence Book reference OB 14/1/1/2012.

Petition:
“Your greatness is measured by your kindness; your education and intellect by your modesty; your ignorance is betrayed by your suspicions and prejudices, and your real caliber is measured by the consideration and tolerance you have for others.”

Religious Leader, Influential Public Speaker

“If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.”

Nancy Baraza's appointment was supported by the majority of Kenyans. She heralded the dawn of a new kind of public service in Kenya, one in which rule of law trumpled over impunity, one in which the wanjikus were the VIPs and the office holders servants of the people. Her VM fiasco goes against all that we expected in the new Kenya, for that reason, she must resign (note, NOT step aside) if we are to keep the dream alive, that moment of anger and arrogance exposed her core values, regardless of previous achievements. We have no room for such, she cannot drive change and still carry the baggages of yesteryears. SHE MUST RESIGN!

Please sign the petition.
