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.

The Reasons for the Rebellion of 1837 in Upper Canada

The Reasons for the Rebellion of 1837 in Upper Canada INTRODUCTION There was neither big revolution nor dependence war in the history of Canada. The Rebellion of 1837 was the first and the only one revolt with certain scale, which occupies an important position in Canada history. In The Rising in French Canada 1837 , Joseph Schull indicates that the Rebellion of 1837 is the mirror of the conflicts among developing national and political philosophy, different life styles. It’s a test for the people and leaders of the country. There were two armed uprisings of 1837 which took place in the lower and Upper Canada respectively. In the lower Canada which was ethnically heterogeneous, comprising both the French and English colonialists; the revolt was due to political ethno-exclusivity. The colonial administration treated the two factions with discrimination. It favored the English colonialists and neglected the voices of the French colonialists. However, in the Upper Canada, t...

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...

MONEY MAKES MAN MAD

Money is the exact opposite of the Holy spirit. Money changes people. When a poor person finally gets money, the person changes like a snake that sheds it's exo-skeleton or like a caterpillar that becomes a butterfly or a moth. The moth can never remember it's Caterpillar life.  Wait! Almost everyone who was not borne in a flood of money. Some men immediately start to think, they can be sponsors or even to the extreme end, add onto themselves more wives and concubines. Some men all of a sudden fall out of love with the women who stood with them at their lowest height below poverty level.  The worse though are women. when a woman who had not known money comes to find good money in the palm of her hands. Immediately she compulsively feels, " I don't need a man. Where can I take a man. I am independent. I can pay my rent, buy any clothe I want, I can buy a car and do everything I want. No I don't need a man."  That is when a married woman stops ...
