SUGAR WOES

I think I have finally figured what is going on in the sugar industry.  I'm looking at the other subsidiary industries in agriculture and I'm convinced the government is chief suspect in this perennial problem. Sugar problem is an economic sabotage to the people living around the sugar belt. Now this is my opinion.

The genesis of sugar problem in the market is the Jubilee government itself. Immediately Jubilee came into power, sugar companies started crumbling piece by piece. A people who are economically disempowered are also politically disenfranchised. Political muscles are supported by a skeleton of economic power.

Am saying the death of sugar factories was a well orchestrated onslaught against the people of western Kenya. This is why the sugar cartels are an interconnected framework of sub-cartels touching on those to whom the back of governance of this country stops. Paralysing or murdering the sugar industry means economic disempowerment of the Western part of Kenya with a view of reducing their political weight and influence.

Now you know why compelling Dr Fred Matiangi to face PSC over contraband sugar is a vain attempt. There's no way he'll implicate his bosses. Look at coffee and Tea industries mostly in central and Rift Valley respectively, they are doing marvelous enjoying government protection and with effective policy reforms which ensures they don't suffer from smuggled cheap imports, privatization and intrusion.

 The only person who can fix sugar problem, sugar industry and sugar companies is the government and as such president Uhuru and WSM are the men to blame for the ailing sugar industry. Today a Kilogram of sugar has shot up to ksh 140.

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...
