ONE FOR CABINET SECRETARY EDUCATION



MATIANGI THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE JOB
The narrative that the burning of our schools is due to the stringent new rules imposed by cabinet secretary for Education, hon. Fred Matiang’i is a fallacy. So sad that former prime minister too, opted to apportion blame to the CS. It is absolutely preposterous to claim, a few rules the government incepted to curtail cheating and promote quality and standards of education is now the matchstick striking the schools ablaze.
When the former prime minister and proponents choose to coerce the government into restoring the old order of cheating as disproved by investigations into the sickening nationwide exam cheating, in last year’s examinations; You wonder if those against CS Matiang’i are really honest , or are just up  to gain some cheap political mileage. Politicizing the torching of schools is the worst mistake politicians and wannabes are making.
Extension of third term by just one week, restricting movements in and out of school by non-candidates and nullification of prayer meetings in third term cannot incite such a zealous proclivity to burn schools. The students cannot be tired when it is only two weeks to go. It is hypocritical for religious leaders to claim that the outlawing of prayer meetings in schools is an attempt to lock God out of the whole process of examinations. Here I agree with CS Matiang’i, only the Pharisees would believe that they must pray in the school in order for God to make the candidates pass their exams. God is omnipresent and omnipotent, they can pray away from school. God will definitely hear and answer if they pray heartfully.
Though the problem in burning schools is partly due to indiscipline and lack of alternative avenues of communication by students and school management, the management is largely to blame. Even the reintroduction of corporal punishment alone cannot be enough, since it was initially proved to abet burning of schools. It all boils down to management even if we have to employ professional counsellors or force the head teachers to reside in schools.
It is almost likely that the cartels who over the decades have been surviving by pouring money to facilitate leakages as a lucrative money train, are fighting back. They could be working through, students, teachers, school heads or boards of management.
 CS Fred Matiangi has made a prudent choice to eradicate these exam leakage cartels once for all. He needs applause and support, and the same should be replicated in corruption and other national vices. He is the man for this job. There is absolutely no need to close schools and interrupt learning, when only last September, learning was interrupted for almost two months due to 50-60 pay-hike impasse.

SAMANTHA THE PERFECT GIRL.

With the emergence of sex dolls for men, Samantha's, the striking difference in men and women interns of sex cannot be overemphasised. Sexuality of men and women are diametrically opposed to each other. Men want sex for physical satisfaction( in most cases) while women want sex for emotional satisfaction. Women give sex to men as a precious gift. A proof of submission and sacrifice. Women undoubtedly believe giving sex is the ultimate show of love. "A man can cheat on his woman and still love her but a woman cannot cheat on her man and still love him. I say this because while men do not have sex with emotions, women can't have sex without attaching emotions to it. This is the reason men simply need a place to have sex while women need a reason to have sex. Most women who take their husbands to court for divorce are those that cheat on their men. A non cheating woman would most likely never take her husband to court for divorce, unless the man exceedingly abuses her ph...

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...
