Hmm....you sound like one of my good 'ol friends who's currently serving time in the slammer......:smile-big:
It depends with your conception of power. The classical definition of power in political science is - the ability of A to get B do what B wouldn't otherwise done. Power may be exercised through an act of violence , withholding rights/opportunities, threat etc. This is the most mechanical way of exercising power. The most sophisticated way of exercising power is perception - the perception B has over A-therefore making B to submit to B ( the case of Africans to Wazungu). There is a form of power called latent power applied so latently- in this case the power of the religious leaders through their institutions. Because of their integrity, consciousness, God fearing tendencies and the services they offer to the society. The guys you have mentioned above like Jeetu et al they occupy high social class but not necessary social status. Social status is drawn and judged from your humbleness and integrity. It is the latent form of power that moves mountains. You can definitely buy a social class but not social status. You engange yourself in corruption, drugs business and buy a social class easily by shifting your residence to Masaki but yet you can not buy social status because you are accorded that by the faithfuls in the sociaty.
They are pulling the strings, na unafuata utake usitake wao wako gizani. Taifa linahitaji kuwa na watu wa jinsi hiyo ili liende kule linakotakiwa. ila kwa sasa sidhani kama tunalo hilo kundi, ila ni la muhimuThere are the people who run the city and the people who run the people who run the city. Hao ulio wataja mkuu ndiyo tunao waona ila nina uhakika kuna watu behind the doors ambao wanaweza kuwa na nguvu zaidi ya hao sema hawaonekani. You might be surprised.
