WHEN EVIL PEOPLE ARE IN THE SEAT OF POWR, THE INNOCENT RIGHTEOUS SUFFER. The Bible speaks with asperity about what befalls innocent people when evil people are in leadership. The innocent groan and suffer with a lot of blood shed, but there is hope, God will deliver his people by his own power. So what does the Bible actually say about Evil leadership? Since sometimes it is God who allows these debauchees to persecute his people as a lesson. Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, But when a wicked man rules, people groan. Psalm 125:3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the land of the righteous, So that the righteous will not put forth their hands to do wrong. Proverbs 28:15 Like a roaring lion and a rushing bear Is a wicked ruler over a poor people. Isaiah 10:1 Woe to those who enact evil statutes And to those who constantly record unjust decisions, Micah 7:3 Concerning evil, both hands do it well The prince asks, also the judge,

Some people are so inhumane, you wonder if they indeed have a heart, even one made of stone. Only a man so evil that he cannot survive out of power can decide to take the life of an innocent man just because they believe power is sliding off from their grip. I feel awful and horrendously terrified by the sudden painful demise of IEBC technology manager. Just because he chose to be loyal and patriotic to his nation, his wife is now a widow, his children orphans. This is how human beings reciprocate your determination and fortitude to serve your own country. Well from this mischievous incident, it is pertinent, Kenya is still captive under the masters of self aggrandizement, dictatorship by plutocrats illegally wielding autocratic powers. The third liberation after the former in 1992 when Gitobu Imanyara, James Orengo, Raila Odinga, Kenneth matiba and Mwai Kibaki just to mention but a few, took to the streets to learn the art of withstanding teargas, gunshots, papperized water, anti-

THE HYPOCRISY OF CHRISTIAN PHARISEES. I listened and watched an advert by his Excellency the President and I am profoundly puzzled. In the advert, the President sells himself as one who is like the people.  Well, a president for a nation should undoubtedly be a man who identities with his people in all ways, even though President Uhuru cannot convince the electorate that he has experiential knowledge about poverty like every other kenyan. I personally approve of such marketing strategies. My concern though is where he advertises himself as a prayerful person. He is taped saying a prayer and I don't know what to say about that. I mean that, campaigns have gone a notch higher, ha ha haaaa. I feel terrible. God has been dragged into the dirt, immorality and filth of politics. The truth is, God and politics are not just immiscible, but are repulsive and volatile. The Church and government cannot be together, otherwise that would be the greatest religious prostitution ever, pe

HOW 2022 SUCCESSION POLITICS IS INSIDIOUSLY SHAKING JUBILEE UNITY. Last time I wrote a short piece about the incongruous war of words between Governor Jackson Mandago and his bitter rival seeking to unseat him, Multibillionaire Buzeki. Today I have a new dimension into the Enigma. I now have a hint about Uasin Gishu gubernatorial race. It seems Isaac Ruto is endorsing the incumbent, Jackson Mandago with the whole NASA brigade. Well this could mean there are too many votes for Nasa's presidential race, I don't know. Now, how is Buzeki a Jubilee project when the deputy president literally begged him in vain to step down for governor Mandago? So it is emerging Buzeki on the outside is against Jubilee unity while secretly he is being fronted by the very man pestering him to step down. How does this Jubilee outfit operate? President Uhuru while in his backyard presented and requested our brothers there to elect Peter Kenneth because he is their son. When the tussle intensifi

WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF ETHNIC INDIFFERENCE. I don't know who is going to help me figure out what is happening in Uasin gishu gubernatorial race. Both contestants hail from the same tribal background. It follows therefore that their acrimony is not ethnic disparity. What the hell are they fighting over?. It reminds me of how brothers fight over property where the Father dies intestate. Why is it that the gubernatorial race between two people in the same ethnic background and same political outfit, causes a rift between two separate communities sharing a political affiliation? Is it because we are overrating political unity while sweeping beneath the carpet historical indifferences? There could be undertows of sharp ethnic rivalry under the garb of political chronism. Until the volatile issues narturing ethnic hatred are reconciled, peace and tolerance might not be a true reflection of the underlying dynamite of negative ethnicity. My verdict is Jackson Mandago has already been g

PRESIDENT UHURU SNUBS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. It is so sad that in 2017, Some African sitting Presidents still have a mentality that an incumbent cannot lose elections. "Yaani kiburi na ubepari ya kusuta na kupuuzilia mbali vigezo muhimu vya demokrasia." All democracies world over have, not only PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES but, all levels of governance as a means by which the constituents through media can interrogate and examine those aspiring for leadership. Consequently, any aspirant pro-democracy ought to uphold the tenets on which democracy thrives. By shrugging off, snubbing and belittling the presidential debate, he did not place democracy under trial, but demonstrated he neither supports democratic processes, nor is he a democrat. Undecided voters are irrefutable in established and emerging democracies. Principally because as a state becomes more democratic, it's citizens make a departure from judging leaders based on ethnicity to one of  ideologies and good go

WHY ATOMY SIFA MUST REPENT Looking at a barrage of attacks from all directions, I really pity Atomy Sifa. He was a somewhat successful artiste, not until he decided  to defame Raila in an explicit song and video. Unfortunately Atomy claims that it is not his voice or song but features in the video. In the video he purport not to be his creation, He feautures carrying a backpack, which forms his scapegoat. He argues he was just passing and the owner of the video begged him to feature in the video owing from his celebrity status. To dismiss Atomy's trick. The purported owner of the song cannot even sing along to the implicit lyrics. Almost throughout the song he is just murmuring- " chewing his lips"- not singing along. Atomy is in the same attyre as his dancers, a distinct costume unlike his parody. In the well shot and produced video. Atomy dances to the song unknowingly and struggles to hide his face under his cape, keeping his back against the camera. This bud

HISTORICAL LAND INJUSTICE. Sometimes I pity the common unlearned citizens. You know how in the spiritual realms they tell you. The Devil is a lier. He comes to steal, kill and destroy. Then they postulate, the Devil will deceive you and seduce you. I am talking about something else. Not spending my energy and bundles talking about the Devil. I hardly mention the Devil in my prayers and if unknowingly I do, then albeit once or at most twice. It is because it's a complete waste of words. There is this dogma called, HISTORICAL INJUSTICES, particularly land injustices. When talking about historical land injustices. We are not talking about private land or individual inherited land. We are talking about communal land and public land. Well am not writing a paper on this subject. I'm merely pointing out that historical land injustices is an elephant a queen ant cannot carry using it's limbs. You cannot solve land injustices dating to colonial era by dishing one or two titl

Opinion polls! opinion polls! Do they ever represent the actual thinking of the citizens. I don't think so. Opinion polls however in some insignificant proportion depict the political terrain. Angela Ambitho- hope I got the name right has innuanded they worked with the Ghanaian and Tanzanian polls, where they accurately used statistical analysis to advise the respective contenders on campaign strategy. If they steered Nana Akufo Addo and Dr. John Pombe Magufuli to the crown, then they could be right, Raila is not on a trade mill but is a president in waiting. I don't really understand how Angela though could say her poll is as old as yesterday. Did she do the sampling yesterday, analysed it and released it the same day. Perhaps she meant it was released yesterday. My greatest concern over Tom Wolf's Ipsos Synnovate is their methodology. These people interviewed adults some of whom are neither registered voters nor are concerned with elections. As if that is not enough

Although Kenya boasts a low divorce rate compared to neighbouring countries which has double it's prevalent rates, the dwindling rates cannot be felt on the ground. Most marriages still end up on the rocks. The Bible gives no room to divorce except for situations where unfaithfulness is irreparable. With about 15% divorce rate, Kenya's successful marriage relationships are credited to women marrying at a much latter date than normal.The McGill university study published in December 2016, which came up with the 15% rate, attributes the unbroken marriages to education among other things which compel women to marry late in life. At such later age the women are not distracted in their commitment in relationships. It is all they want and are more objective and determined to keep the marriages. They work towards keeping and building the marriages apart from going out of their way to cure differences. Another possible reason is the maturity factor. Most women tend to pursue succ

The presidential debates organised by the debates Media committee is absolutely of no significance. First, the contestants have no time since they have tight campaign schedules. There is a big difference between candidates who have miniature following of less than 1% and much more popular candidates with over 40% following. There is no way they can be placed under the same platform. secondly, the most popular candidates taking over 40% have a greater possible of winning the presidency seat and as such deserve a separate platform on which value of time can be created and in which Kenyans can have ample time to interrogate the contenders on issues. Thirdly, Some candidates who haven't displayed any seriousness and who are not drumming up any support, have deliberately intended to hijack the platform to use it as purely a campaign tool to reach out to potential supported. Lastly, the debate organizers did not engage the contestants on several issues regarding the nature of the d

Only a day after His Excellency the President directed the force fighting Alshabaab terror group in Boni forest to shoot to kill the terrorists on sight, the demonic terror group made a futile attempt to attack a General Service Unit camp in Mokowe Lamu. It is unbelievable that since the commencement of Operation Linda Nchi started on 16th October 2011 when Kenya crossed the border into conflict Zones in Somalia, Kenya has not been hunting the Al- Shabaab to arrest them. I strongly welcome President Uhurus resolve to kill the enemy. These terrorists do not only target the military or the combined force smoking them out, but they also target innocent citizens, decapitate them and display their members for public viewing. These people are so Evil even the Satan, the God they serve cannot have mercy on them. Satan only takes on those who subscribe to his craftiness. Fire for fire. Whoever robs an humane being his inalienable right to life proves beyond any reasonable doubt that he doe

It is saddening to hear Alexis Sanchez threaten the Arsenal fraternity with his empty ambitions. He claims it is time for him to leave Emirates for better future prospects of playing the Champions league. This is a repugnant resolve considering he shares the blame for Arsenal not playing the Champions league. Despite drawing a huge salary than other players, Sanchez unlike his fellow superstars who singlehandedly carry their teams to the Champions league, was unable to aid the Gunner's secure a tip four finish. Why would he then turn around and apportion all the blame and exonerate himself? Had he been so obsessed with playing in the Champions league, he would have ensured his great team Arsenal become Champions for the premiership title. Christiano Ronaldo, a player of his stature played a critical role in enabling his team win the Champions league and Laliga, what about Alexis? I think there is not single international player who doesn't wish to play in the UEAFA Champion

It started as a joke. My daughter liked playing with my neighbour's two year old boy. They came to my house most of the time. He belonged to a sexy young single woman living a few blocks from my house. He started imitating my daughter when she called me dad. He started calling me daddy whenever we met. I didn't have an option but kuitatika. My wife laughed at me and joked that,"tutachunguza hiyo maneno".  Within no time,my neighbours started calling me baba Andrew. I laughed it off. We became good buddies until one day he pulled me towards their home. I couldn't resist. I was welcomed by his mum and offered something to drink. It was awkward sitting at a house that i rarely talk to the owner. The young nigger sat next to me. An awkward moment followed because we had nothing to talk about. Watch out for part two here on the main story Part 2  I swallowed the juice and excused myself to leave. Andrew cried wanting me to stay. But i couldn't. I went anyway,a

“This time round I will not be running for presidency”, said he. The words have created a hot debate on the dynamics of Kenyan politics. Very soft, honest and sincere words he uttered but Peter Kenneth hardly knew the political storm he was brewing by speaking his mind. In 1978 former president Hon. Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi, the then vice president was laughed off as a passing wind. While Mzee was just about to breath his last in his illness. An eleventh hour race to amend the constitution with an aim of blocking Daniel Moi from sitting as interim president for 90 days, was flagged off. Only if wishes were horses but alas! Mzee died before this selfish ambition matured. Just as in football, performance history can perfectly foretell future performance.   Perhaps   because naturally, history repeats itself. Similarly in the Kenyan executive structure, history has not defied its order. Right from the first time vice president Jaramogi   Oginga   Odinga was shown the door by for

DO NOT BE USED AND ABUSED FOR POLITICAL MILEAGE. I pity the common mwananchi, the hustlers who are used and abused. Yesterday I couldn't believe my eyes as vibrant young men full of vitality, heckled and booed his Excellency the President. The president was there in the podium as these young man grumbled and murmured the most respected man in the country. They sung in unison, "Hatutaki Ruuuto, Hatutaki Ruuto!" I slid back into memory lane, when president Kenyatta Snr, toured Kisumu town in 1969 to launch now Joramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and memorial hospital. Well if you are upbeat with history, Joramogi Oginga Odinga, Achieng Oneko and many Luo luminaries were arrested. Hundreds were killed and thousands arrested. What am saying is that the office of the president is not a joke. There are so many young people who died for politicians since 2013. As we vaingloriously wallow in political subservience, politicians are happy looking at the manner

HOW THE LUO MANTLE NEVER SAW THE LIGHT OF DAY Although, Thomas Joseph Odhiambo Mboya was never among the Kapenguria six or the prominent Mau-mau fighters, who were passionate to defend their ancestral land to the last drop of their blood; he played the most fundamental role in the clamor for Kenya’s independence. His was an epic monumental activism that must have been the invisible force which pushed the imperialists to full conviction to relinquish African land.   The Kapenguria six were arrested by the colonial government as the luminaries of the Mau mau rebellion, and were incarcerated in Kapenguria for 9 years. Among the six was Ramogi Achieng Oneko. Who was born in Tienga village Uyoma sublocation, the year 1920. Alongside other Mau-mau fighters he is credited with the invincible feat of Kenyas independence in 1963, through his critical role in their uprising. The then prime minister, Jomo Kenyatta appointed him to the portfolio of minister for information, broadcasting
