VICTORY TO THE UNDERDOGS



WHEN THE FAVORITES LOSE
On May third 2016, Leicester City fans sat tranquil and expectant at a pub in Leicester England. They were waiting for an epic victory in the history of football. Chelsea who were pausing a neck to neck competition for the trophy, were taking on Tottenham hot spurs, which too was eying the trophy. Any draw as it turned out to be 2-2 would give Leicester its first ever premier league trophy, because Tottenham had to beat Chelsea to prolong the competition. It came to pass, an underdog team rose from grass to grace. The team was elevated from second division to the premier league and surprisingly it came to taunt the big teams and lift the trophy.
2015- 2016 season which was their dramatic win, was actually their 111th season in the Premiership. It was their second consecutive appearance and they rewrote history. They lost only three games. Sometimes the favourites just cannot win. If Claudio Ranieri managed to lead his side to a surprise victory, opposition leader Raila Odinga can also lead the NASA coalition of parties to monumental victory in the upcoming elections.
The political altercation will change to be a new dawn for Kenya. Jubilee party might boast of an added advantage of home advantage in this derby, but just like the case of Leicester city Nasa is going to bag a brobdingnagian win in the first round. In fact there is not going to be a runoff.
The government has been obdurately using government machinery and state resources to gain unfair advantage over the opposition, but it is now evident their efforts are in vain. Hell is breaking loose on them. Just like the English premier leagues which exercise the rule of fair-play, if the presidential elections are held in a free and fair manner then Nasa is going to emerge victorious early in the morning.
Tuesday 8th august will be the last shot. Already NASA has beaten Jubilee in virtually everything. The entire steps jubilee made to advance their political mileage turned retrogressive. The worst was the presidential debate in which the president himself cried wolf to the media. Calling media names and falsely accusing media of taking sides with the opposition. Yet he ignorantly snubbed the debate which was a golden opportunity for him to confront his opponents with a rebuttal.
The rule of any game is that if you belittle or underestimate your opponent, then you are sure to lose. Manchester united, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool, Tottenham and Everton, down played Leicester City, who were starting off a new season in 2015 while getting over a previous season in which they struggled to stay in the league; and as you may have not anticipated Leicester won the premier league title. This Tuesday watch out for NASA.

SUPREME COURT RULING

MY SUPREME COURT JUDGMENT I am not a lawyer and as such I am only qualified to render my layman’s submission to the court of public opinion, where one does not apply to be “amicus curiae.” In the court of public opinion everybody is both a lawyer and judge and so I can adduce my evidence confidently and make a ruling on my evidence. I want to usurp this opportunity to tell my one page judgment as Chief Justice David Maraga advised. The Chief Justice invited the public to read the Supreme Court judgment and subsequently make individual ruling.             Guys I tried to look at Chebukati trying by hook and crook to exonerate the commissioners from the mess and implicating the secretariat. Chebukati clarified they just assumed office a few months ago, coming into an old secretariat. Although the summary ruling of the Supreme Court judgment did not point out the culpability of the first and second respondents, my opinion is; ...

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 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...
