I love Ndii for clarifying things; slicing & dicing complex issues for the hoi polloi. Before Ndii we were taken by Jubilee's balloon economy. Now we know, food on the table (real GDP) is what matters in the end and is the ultimate test. Well, that and the Gini, now that he's gone full sicialist.
He's also free of tribe, an intellectual Tuju, and has supplanted Karua, PK, et al who have succumbed.
The con side is conflating his position for the center of gravity. Ideological hardliner per excellence with academic chops. The Ndii mantra is complete with data and examples of global success stories: the US, Asian Tigers, India, Bangladesh, name it. Magic models we must copycat and boom, success! Idealism is like when you're an intern or newbie full of ideas... then you rankup to manager and you can no longer shout platitudes because you actually need a plan, budget, priorities and compromises.
Given the theory-heavy, solution-free fluid profile, this ideologue would lead us down the drain if we listened to him. DR DOOM INDEED

marginalised and respected
That's the key...
-
Better to die on your feet rather than spend your whole life on your knees.

What are Ndii's actual accomplishments apart from being a World Bank economist or an Ivy league graduate?
I saw him admit that they was behind the 90s structural adjustment programs.

He has lost is mind after Jubilee gave him the ignire card and is now advocating for armed struggle yet the coward is not ready to fight.
