MANDAGO VS BUZEKI

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 governor for five years, subsequently, he should allow fresh blood from Buzeki. Change is always better than a rest. Why is it that most Africans once they smell the coffee, they cannot get off the table? They just want more coffee.

The day Africans will learn not to cling to power like mating dogs, that will be the onset of responsible governance in Africa. I am happy Raila has promised to be a one term president just like Nelson Mandela.

On the Contrary, President Uhuru just like Paul Kagame, Pierre Nkurunzissa, Yoweri Museveni, Daniel Moi, Jomo Kenyatta, Mugabe and many more would rather die in power. Mandago should give way for Buzeki. Eldoret needs new leadership.

A FEW PICKS ABOUT VALENTINE AND BROKEN HEARTS.

I have been following on Valentine's day heartbreaking escapades of what sacrifices guys made for the sake of love, and am left in a reality limbo. The question that rings in my mind is is if indeed love exists? A man braced himself for a two year jail term sentence for an offence which was perpetrated by his lover. Sadly the girl who stole from her father a good amount of money went ahead to incriminate her husband after they had agreed the husband would come in to stand in for his wife in prison. By the time the guy was released from incarceration his love had left him. In a separate incidence a lady boycotted their wedding, broke a relationship two days to the wedding, fled and eloped with a white German man. It happened that two days to the wedding, one of the brides maid called the groom who was far from the wedding venue, telling him the wedding was bound not to be. The groom got concerned,,travelled down south to interrogate the issue one on one. When he found the bride,...

THE STRUGGLE OF THE LUO NATION.

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, broadcas...

ELECTIONS ARE EVIL HENCE THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD

THE TROUBLE WITH KENYAN ELECTIONS The current legal stalemate bedeviling the country can be attributed to reluctance on the part of Kenyan institutions to adhere to the rule of law. The chief culprit is the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission and the government. Jubilee party has merged with the state so that the country is not ruled by the Jubilee government but by the Jubilee party. The party even controlling an independent IEBC This diabolic precedence started way back in 2013 when Jubilee, not in a free and fair manner, rigged their way to statehouse.   The Supreme Court then did not make satisfactory findings, though the petitioner accepted the verdict. Since then the party had been choreographing another rigging scheme. Although democracy entails the decision of the majority to prevail, Jubilee has taken advantage to exercise tyranny. The government rules its own way independent of the wishes of the people. Even annihilating and trampling the law more o...
