TO LIVE OR TO DIE

By Dr Paul Bundi Human beings are endowed with remarkable resilience, which can only be broken when they choose to give up. Says Viktor Frankl in his seminal book, Man's Search for Meaning; ''it is a peculiarity of man that he can only live by looking to the future-sub specie aeternitatis. And this is his salvation in thd most difficult moments of his existence, although he sometimes has to force his mind to the task.'' Man's life is primarily driven by the desire for future, the unshakable belief that the future holds promise. We invariably cease to live when we think we have hit a dead end, or that there's nothing more to be had by living. Theoretically, there is no limit to man's achievement, and that is what drives men to wake up and strive day after day. The opposite is spiritual, psychological death, which manifests way ahead of physical death. Lesson? Losing today doesn't mean losing always. You can lose 10 times and win the 11th time. Or, you

AN INSPIRING STORY AS WE USHER IN NEW YEAR 2014

One day, a donkey fell into a pit. The animal cried and whined for hours while his owner tried to figure out what to do. Finally, the farmer decided that since the animal was old, and the pit needed to be covered up anyway, he'd just bury the old donkey right there. He got a shovel and started filling in the pit. The donkey kept up its wailing, but then fell silent. After an hour of furious shoveling, the farmer paused to rest. To his amazement, he saw his old donkey jump out of the pit and trot away! At first, when the donkey realized what was happening, he cried even more piteously. But then the wise animal hit on a plan. As each spadeful of dirt hit his back, the donkey would shake it off and take a step up on the growing mound of earth. Eventually, the mound grow high enough for him to jump out of the pit. Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the pit well is to shake it off and take a step up. We can get out of the deepest pits by

kenya Jubilee govt scores poorly in first eight months

When the history of the Jubilee government is finally written, will Mr Uhuru Kenyatta turn the pages on his first year in office with a smile or hang his head in shame at the cacophony of missteps cataloguing his early months as Kenya’s fourth president? It may be too early to judge this government, but if the past eight months are a pointer to the future, President Kenyatta will have a lot to be embarrassed about, and little to be proud of. Why? His MPs have turned their majority in Parliament into a curse of our elections. With the help of the President they have assaulted press freedom, attempted to strangle the civil society, gutted independent commissions and turned the august House into a bastion of incompetence. When MPs are not devaluing our nationhood, they are robbing the economy by raising their salaries and scavenging for allowances through the so-called committee sittings where profiteering is the password. Perhaps the threshold for shame is too low in Parliament, but thi

The Optimist Creed

Promise Yourself To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

You have the Power

“You have the power to say: This is not how my story ends.”

KIDERO IS A VERY INSINCERE CHAMELEON. HE IS FOR SURE SUCCEEDING IN DIVIDING LUO NYANZA

If Kidero is sincere about helping Kenyans and Nyanza develop by helping raise funds, then how come Kidero is not doing the same in Kisii or Kuria regions of Nyanza? Why is he not raising funds in Nairobi county where he is the Governor for street children and other projects that have died out due to the failure by the government to fund them. This Kidero seems to be a cold chameleon, worse than Kalonzo the son of Tseikuru. He seems to have an agenda which he thinks will only be achievable by toppling someone in the name of Raila. His agenda could be good but he's doing it the wrong way. Where does he get all this money he is donating? Who is funding him because his salary cannot be enough for all the money he gives. Someone must be using and funding him to divide LUO Nyanza in which I think he is very well succeeding.

Robin’s 73 Best Business and Success Lessons

1.You can really Lead Without a Title. 2.Knowing what to do and not doing it is the same as not knowing what to do. 3.Give away what you most wish to receive.  4.The antidote to stagnation is innovation.  5.The conversations you are most resisting are the conversations you most need to be having.  6.Leadership is no longer about position – but passion.

Building Your Self-Confidence

The key to being able to accomplish our goals in life is having unshakable self-confidence and a belief in ourselves. Without confidence, we would never have the courage to apply for jobs, go to college, or even commit to a serious relationship. We may find ourselves holding back on pursuing our dreams, sabotaging our own efforts, or even refusing to try at all. Building up our self-confidence doesn't have to be a daunting task; it can actually be quite fun. It may take time and practice before we see big results, but if we keep at it, we will eventually notice positive changes. Try these suggested techniques to jump start your own self-confidence, and be on your way to creating success for yourself. Usecreative visualization– Rest your mind and imagine a situation where you are confident and successful. Go over the details thoroughly in your mind. What did you do? What did you say? You can also try to remember a time in the past when you acted with a lack of confidence. Go over t

How to Attract Money with the A-B-C of Abundance

Attracting money with the Law of Attractionseems like it should be a piece of cake, but many people still struggle with it. Most often the reason is because they are forgetting just one small part of the process. Today I'm going to share a simple formula that is easy to remember because you can refer to it as the "A-B-C of Abundance".A is for ATTENTIONThe very first step in attracting more money into your life is to be sure you are focusing on abundance- always! Most of us do the opposite; we focus on everything that is going wrong in our lives. Unfortunately, all that does is attract more of the same.How do you focus on abundance every day? Be very deliberate about where you place your attention and make it a daily habit to purposely focus on abundance. You can do this by thinking happily about the abundance you already have, or you can visualize the abundance you know is coming to you soon. You can focus on feeling grateful for everything in your life, and listing doze

BOTCHED: IGAD Declares Support for Kiir, accuses Riek Machar of power greed

“Let it be known the we in IGAD will not accept unconstitutional overthrow of a duly and democratically elected government in South Sudan” – President Uhuru KenyattaThe special summit of IGAD heads of state whose meeting ended in Nairobi today declared support for embattled South Sudan President Salva Kiir in a move that was widely expected.While the summit convened to seek ways to resolve the South Sudanese Crisis, the final resolution failed to directly provide a clear roadmap to an end to the violence in South Sudan. Instead, the resolution may embolden the rebels to fight away from the negotiating table.The summit failed to call on the government of Juba to unconditionally release the political detainees, which the rebels, under Dr Riek Machar, have said is an integral part of the first stages of negotiating a peace settlement. Instead, President Uhuru, the East Africa Community Chair, only called for the ‘humane treatment’ of the prisoners.“The detainees are part of South Sudan le

Understanding the nilotes

In Nilotes, we are devided into 3. Highland, Plain and River Lake. Highland and Plain have got no problem. The River Lake are devided into 3 again... Joka Jok, Joka Owiny and Joka Omollo. Joka Jok is where Riek Macher comes from and is trying to make a coúp in S. Sudan. Joka Owiny is where Joseph Kony belongs. They want to make a coup in Uganda. Joka Omollo is where Raila comes from. You know what happened in 1982. STAKI FEELINGS!

KIAMBU & CLITORECTOMY

By Serah Kahiu News/Propagada/tablod/Kadhalika reaching my roumor-mongering desk is that someone has called an Honorable Kiambu girl the "K" word... as in the (whispering) "KÎRÎGÛ" word? OMG!!! moto itawaka pahali... uuuuui aki ya ngai moto itawashwa! Mûndû nîanyitîrîre ma ndikahiûkîrwo... Kî whaaaaat?! For thee who not knoweth... The 'K' word is kind of a derogatory word given to a woman who has her Clitoris and labia Lips still on... as in they haven't gone through any form of genital mutilation... You see those days of tene, such mutilation was "fashionable" and the word was used to castigate the gals that went against the grain and refused the cut. Who had IT ALL On... Oh wait... when I explain it that way, sounds like it is not such a bad thing to be a kîrîgû... means the gal's got ALL her assets in place! hmmm forget 'kuwasha moto' let's drink and celebrate the wonderful and courageous Tûrîgû's across Kiambu county!

Law of Attraction Tips for Finding Your True Love

If you’ve been in several failed relationships, perhaps you’ve given up now thinking there’s no such thing as Mr. Right or Ms. Right. Indeed, it’s hard to recover from a breakup but the truth is there is such thing as true love. The only problem many people often encounter is finding that special someone who’ll complete him or her. Those who can’t find true love right away would feel gravely disappointed but for the positive thinker, there’s always hope. There are many ways to find true love. Many would often go to certain extent just to find the right person for them even if it means they have to do the chasing themselves. Women today are more aggressive after going after what they want that finding women who ask men for dates are now very common. On the other hand, men are becoming more romantic and creative in keeping women interested in them. Though there are a gazillion ways to find true love, none can be more natural, effective, and practical than applying very simple law of att

WHY KOMBO LOST IN BUNGOMA SENATORIAL BY-ELECTION

: 1. He relied on boys who commercialize politics and forgot men tha consumerate politics. 2. He lacked policies and relied on tired propaganda of insecurity and working with central government. 3. He failed to shade Lusaka shadow off who has sharply lost popurlarity in the county. 4. He overtrusted sabaots and forgot others in the county not knowing they are a small fraction. 5. His coalition was wide divided with vocalists supporting wetang'ula

Ruto set to be Jailed, Uhuru to be Aquitted by the ICC

Sospeter Otieno I know Ruto thinks, Kenya will collapse in his absence. No Kamwana- once Ruto is jailed- as was demonstrated in his tour of Rift Valley, in which he swore to never relinquish power to URP in 2017, will continue to demonstrate that he is the man on the steering wheel, and that Ruto is not even the co-driver (Joseph Kinyua- the de-facto Deputy to the President is). And Bensouda appears to suggest that she has sufficient evidence against Ruto not Kamwana. Quite consistent with when I said Ruto would be jailed. And there are many other reasons to do with diplomacy and compromise that I won’t delve into. Just know this, if you are player in politics, prepare to take over the vacuum that a highly likely Ruto incarceration will create. And also Kenyans should prepare for what a scot-free Uhuru with a label of innocence from an international court would be capable of doing for them. And any ambitious politician should plan for taking Mr. Samoei’s place as DP. Charles Keter, Mrs

WHY IS “KNOWING YOURSELF” AN INGREDIENT IN WISDOM?

WHY IS “KNOWING YOURSELF” AN INGREDIENT IN WISDOM? You can know truth if you look honestly into yourself. Emotions are powerful forces of greatness. Know them. Harness them. Identify your problems. It’s the beginning of solving them. If you don’t get it straight now, you’re bound to make some bad mistakes. Don’t be afraid of finding out who you really are. Use your free will as a conscious tool for better living. If you’re angry or upset, track it down. What’s the root? If you’re acting illogically, at least acknowledge that to yourself! The key to sanity is letting truth into the body. You can’t afford to wait too long to get to know yourself. Because you are the most fascinating person you’ll ever meet.

Never let go of HOPE

LET ME BE VERY CLEAR, RAILA ODINGA CAN NOT BE AND IS NOT ANYONE'S RIVAL

By AB Murage Eghmp LET ME BE VERY CLEAR, RAILA ODINGA CAN NOT BE AND IS NOT ANYONE'S RIVAL especially not a person of a mayoral stature and of no history in the likes of Kidero. I know he is happy to hear the media say so as implying so gives him an undue political leverage. It's like giving him a chunk of meat too big to swallow or a shoe too big to wear. It's like signing him up to a league that he can not play in. All everybody is saying to the Kideros of this world is blunt simple; that there are ways of climbing the ladder up...not through betrayals, shortcuts, backstabbing or silly cat and mouse games as exhibited by people who he, Raila Odinga have trusted dearly. It has happened before and we are not just about to let it happen again.

Daddy Hands

I awoke in the night to find my husband, Marty, gently rocking our baby son, Noah. I stood for a moment in the doorway, watching this amazing man with whom I was so blessed to share my life, lovingly stroke Noah’s fat pink cheeks in an effort to comfort him. I felt in my heart that something was seriously wrong with Noah. This was one of several nights Noah had been up, burning with a high fever. Tears filled my eyes as I watched my beautiful husband move Noah’s little cheek up against his own chest, so that Noah could feel the vibrations of his voice. Noah is deaf. Learning to comfort him has brought on a whole new way of thinking for us. We relied on our voices, a soothing lullaby, audio toys, and music to comfort our other children. But with Noah, we need to use touch, sight, the feel of our voices, and most importantly, the use of sign language to communicate emotions and a sense of comfort to him. My husband made the sign for “I love you” with his hand and I saw a tear roll down

Mandela buried

QUNU, South Africa- The body of Nelson Mandela was laid to rest on Sunday in a grave near his family homestead at Qunu in South Africa’s Eastern Cape province. The burial followed a state funeral service and closed 10 days of emotion-charged mourning for the former president and anti-apartheid legend, who died on December 5 at the age of 95. The ceremony attracted hundreds of political, diplomatic and social figures from across the world. These include Zambia’s former president Kenneth Kaunda, Malawi presient Joyce Banda, Tanzanian leader Jakaya Kikwete Zimbabwe’s former Prime minister Morgan Tsvangirai, movie actor Idris Elba who featured in the recently released film Mandela:The long walk to freedom. Mandela died on 5 December at the age of 95 after a long battle with lung infection related illness.

''50yrs of subjugation and dominion by one group in Kenya!"

50yrs ago,the group which was handed leadership by Kenyans got busy pillaging and subjugating others politically and economically under sworn oaths?50 yrs today,the same group is busy hijacking the same Kenyan leadership by oathings and continue the subjugation of majority others economically as they continue with pillaging?that why during today's kenya @50 celebrations,President Goodluck Jonathan of nigeria has warned president Uhuru that, if he really want to unite Kenyans, then he has to recognize Raila Odinga and Kalonzo Musyoka failure to which, no unity and reconciliation will ever be achieved. Jonathan recognized them as being in the Celebrations,ofwhich the uhuru led govt had earlier failed to do.How can kenya boost of 50 yrs of self rule if the govt can afford to totally ignore to recognise presence of opposition leaders during jubilee year celebrations?I hope for a day when kenya will stand as One,the day we will elect our leaders based on their capabilities not tribes.Go

Mandela Signer 'Moving His Hands ... but There Was no Meaning'

A man who appeared to provide sign language interpretation on stage for Nelson Mandela's memorial service, attended by scores of heads of state, was a "fake," the national director of the Deaf Federation of South Africa said on Wednesday. The scandal over the interpreter is another indication of bad organization of the historic memorial service at a huge soccer stadium on Tuesday. Other difficulties included public transportation breakdowns which hindered mourners from getting to the event and a faulty audio system that prevented many of the tens of thousands in the stadium from hearing the leaders' speeches. In an apparent security failure, police did not search the first wave of crowds arriving at the stadium. The unidentified man seen around the world on television next to leaders including United States President Barack Obama "was moving his hands around but there was no meaning in what he used his hands for," Bruno Druchen, the federation's nationa

MUSIKARI KOMBO caught red handed BRIBING voters

MUSIKARI KOMBO caught red handed BRIBING voters at Chogoyi School by IEBC -forced to ESCAPE to avoid being ARRESTED Wednesday December 11, 2013 - Amani Coalition candidate in the Bungoma Senatorial by-election, Musikari Kombo, was yesterday caught pants down engaging in an electoral malpractice that could see him disqualified from contesting. Kombo is said to have been caught red handed by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) officials bribing voters at Chogoyi Primary School in Bungoma during his campaigns contrary to the Elections Act. Kombo and his campaign team were forced to flee the scene very first leaving a car behind to avoid being arrested or victimized. Kombo flee towards the school gate which the locals closed to bar him from escaping but his goons broke the fence and sneaked him out. If the IEBC officials managed to get evidence including photos and video footage of Kombo dishing out money in the campaigns, then he will be disqualified from contesting

Obama’s full speech at Mandela ‘s memorial

United States President Barack Obama’s tribute at late former president Nelson Mandela’s memorial service at FNB Stadium, Soweto on Tuesday. To Graça Machel and the Mandela family; to President Zuma and members of the government; to heads of state and government, past and present; distinguished guests – it is a singular honor to be with you today, to celebrate a life unlike any other. To the people of South Africa – people of every race and walk of life – the world thanks you for sharing Nelson Mandela with us. His struggle was your struggle. His triumph was your triumph. Your dignity and hope found expression in his life, and your freedom, your democracy is his cherished legacy. It is hard to eulogise any man – to capture in words not just the facts and the dates that make a life, but the essential truth of a person – their private joys and sorrows; the quiet moments and unique qualities that illuminate someone’s soul. How much harder to do so for a giant of history, who moved a nati

You can control your attitude towards what happens to you

“You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude towards what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.” There are things in life that you don’t have any control of, just have to suck it up and learn from your experiences in life then you may have a better look in to the insight of things around you. ~ Wayne Anthony Neuner We all face different situations like problems, but each one of us decide to deal with them in different ways. ~ Alisar Al Haj Ali

Kofi Annan’s statement on the passing of Nelson Mandela

“The world has lost a visionary leader, a courageous voice for justice, and a clear moral compass. By showing us that the path to freedom and human dignity lies in love, wisdom and compassion for one another, Nelson Mandela stands as an inspiration to us all. I shall never forget his expansive smile and gentle demeanour, nor his steely determination and wonderful sense of humour. I have lost a dear friend. While I mourn the loss of one of Africa’s most distinguished leaders, Madiba’s legacy beckons us to follow his example to strive for human rights, reconciliation and justice for all.” Nelson Mandela, Kofi Annan and The Elders Besides chairing the Kofi Annan Foundation and the Africa Progress Panel, Kofi Annan is chair of The Elders, a group Nelson Mandela founded on his 89th birthday, 18 July 2007. At the group’s launch, Nelson Mandela called on The Eldersto act as “a fiercely independent and robust force for good, tackling complex and intractable issues – especially those that are

Nelson Mandela: Six things you didn’t know

Nelson Mandela was a figure of international renown, and many details of his life and career were public knowledge. But here are six things you may not have known about the late South African leader. 1. He was a boxing fan.In his youth, Nelson Mandela enjoyed boxing and long-distance running. Even during the 27 years he spent in prison, he would exercise every morning. "I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it. I was intrigued by how one moved one's body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat, how one paced oneself over a match," he wrote in his autobiography Long Walk to Freedom. "Boxing is egalitarian. In the ring, rank, age, colour and wealth are irrelevant... I never did any real fighting after I entered politics. My main interest was in training; I found the rigorous exercise to be an excellent outlet for tension and stress. After a strenuous workout, I felt both mentally and physically lighter," h

In fact Lord has grand plan to launch you at mountainous height of abundance, happiness, success and peace. So never give up and light the fire of patience, trust, self belief and strong faith on Lord.

SHOCK As Uhuru is NOT Invited to Mandela’s Funeral, Raila to represent Kenya!

By George Morara Apparently Mandela made it clear he doesn’t want Kenyan “illegitimate” president attending his funeral, thanks to his wife Graca sharing! Details are scanty as to what informed the African Icon’s decision but too obvious that even a foolish madman can easily tell that the father of freedom could not stand an ICC indictee to grace his final journey. The slow analysts are attributing Mandela’s wish not have Uhuru at his funeral to actions of senior Kenyatta’s land grabbing and disenfranchising of the Mau Mau freedom fighters after independence….. so many theories to keep kenyans talking as they fight jiggers and drinking cheap liquor. And with a stroke, President Zuma and the funeral committee have invited Former Prime Minister and the Peolle’s President Raila Amolo Odinga to represent the great people of the republic of Kenya at the funeral! Diplomatically speaking, Uhuru will find no place to hide his face! I don’t want to dwell on the subject but bearing in mind when

Winnie Mandela : My Life and Romance With The Great Man, the Untold Story

“My love for her remains undiminished.” These were the words Nelson Mandela used on April 13, 1992, when he announced to the world his separation from Winnie Madikizela-Mandela. A few years later the couple legally divorced. But it wasn’t the end of a long-lasting love story. When he saw her at a bus stop in 1957, it was love at first sight. Nelson Mandela (aka Madiba, as per his clan name) has always admitted that. And Winnie Madikizela-Mandela has remained a presence in his life, even after his marriage to Graca Machel in 1998 – on his 80th birthday. In private, Mrs Machel sometimes refers to herself and Winnie as “Madiba’s two wifes”. To many in the outside world Winnie remains labelled as the anti-apartheid fighter, who, in 1986, said: “With our boxes of matches and our necklaces we shall liberate this country.” Necklacing was a brutal practice of “punishing” suspected traitors and apartheid collaborators by burning them alive using tyres and petrol. But even more, Winnie’s image

LETTER FROM ABRAHAM LINCOLN TO HIS SON’S TEACHER

“My son starts school today. It is all going to be strange and new to him for a while and I wish you would treat him gently. It is an adventure that might take him across continents. All adventures that probably include wars, tragedy and sorrow. To live this life will require faith, love and courage. So dear Teacher, will you please take him by his hand and teach him things he will have to know, teaching him - but gently, if you can. Teach him that for every enemy, there is a friend. He will have to know that all men are not just, that all men are not true. But teach him also that for every scoundrel there is a hero, that for every crooked politician, there is a dedicated leader. Teach him if you can that 10 cents earned is of far more value than a dollar found. In school, teacher, it is far more honorable to fail than to cheat. Teach him to learn how to gracefully lose, and enjoy winning when he does win. Teach him to be gentle with people, tough with tough people. Steer him away from

Don’t give those people the places which they never deserve

Life may knock you down, people may knock you down and negative circumstances may knock you down physically, financially, emotionally and spiritually but you need to gather lion like courage to get up spiritually from within firing the light of faith and self belief from within. You are divinely gifted with all gifts to manifest your dream desires and discover your true self. So never give up and keep moving with great enthusiasm and passion in the light of faith of God. Just dare to rise above negative voices coming from ordinary crowd then you can get croned with victor tag.

Take chances

You can’t go through life protecting yourself from everything; you have to take chances, because if you don’t then you might as well not be living.

International Criminal Court Wrestles With Applying Law, or Bending

By Marlise Simons for New York Times. THE HAGUE — As the International Criminal Court takes up its highest-profile trials to date — the case of President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya and his deputy, William Ruto — it is wrestling with a question that so often looms over international justice: Should the law prevail, or bend to the demands of diplomacy and political stability? After intense bargaining among the 122 countries that adhere to the court, the decision was: Bend, but up to a point. The assembly of nations that oversees the court has agreed to special rules for any defendant who performs “extraordinary public duties at the highest national level.” Human rights groups and other critics immediately warned that the new rules, allowing absences from hearings or appearances via video link, had created a category of privileged defendants in a court that recognizes immunity for no one and that stipulates that everyone is equal, without distinction based on official capacity. Now, they war

Miraa juice coming to a club near you

by BERNADINE MUTANU, Nairobi will soon be treated to a new beverage as miraa traders offer miraa juice, tea and cappuccino. It will be sold in clubs and other outlets. It will be launched at a Miraa Night to be be held on Saturday where the juice and other by-products will be showcased. “We are targeting the middle class who have stopped chewing miraa,” said Kimani Munjuri. He claimed that middle class miraa chewers had been doing it in their cars and other hideouts for fear of stigmatisation since the habit is usually associated with falling teeth and poverty. “We want to show the public that miraa can be chewed and used in mainstream any club. It is not necessary for one to litter around or have green colour all over the mouth as he enjoying miraa,” he said. He added that miraa could help people lose weight in addition to the twig being a stimulant. He said the traders were working on establishing a factory for mass production of the by-products to cater for the need during dry seaso

There is no one perfect way to be a good mother.

“There is no one perfect way to be a good mother. Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children. Some may have to work part-or full-time; some may work at home; some may divide their lives into periods of home and family and work. What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else.”

KIRAITU-Hon William Ruto committed the worst political blunder I have ever seen in my political career.

KIRAITU MURUNGI "We indeed committed serious political mistakes before and after March 4th Elections but Hon William Ruto committed the worst political blunder I have ever seen in my political career. I have been close to power for around 10 years and I can tell you Ruto is under siege from my experience. The country's deputy president is an equivalent to the president but what we are seeing with Ruto where he keeps on following the president in every single event you may ask yourself why? I will answer you in a simple way Ruto is idle. All his functions have been taken over by Joseph Kinyua. Ruto's office is an extension of Harambee house. He always makes phone calls to o inquire where the president will be such that he accompanies him. So sad what will he do in future when his calls will be ignored? Maybe he will be busy watching movies? "

LEAKED, LEAKED LEAKED!! THARAKA NITHI COUNTY FALL APART ON PRESIDENT PLANNED VISIT

During a meeting called on Monday by the County Commissioner to prepare for the impending Presidential visit, A member of National Assembly, a women Rep and a speaker categorically objected the planned visit by the Head of State, saying that there were no funds to build the Chuka town roads. In the recorded conversation, the MP says that there are no funds from the central government and the president shall not come to launch the project. He is quickly told off by the area MP who advises him to talk on behalf of his constituency alone which he has continued to mismanage and let Chuka be. The governor rises to object the presidential visit and vows never to show up or participate in the planning since he was not consulted or invited. He too, is quickly shut down by Chuka VC who produces letters of invitation and reads them to a shocked audience. An embarrassed governor acknowledges the letters but still not content with the President launching the project. Some of the people in the room

Raila Joins Uhuru at JKIA new terminal groundbreaking ceremony
