JUBILEE GOVERMENT IS SYSTEMATICALLY KILLING DEVOLUTION AS WELL AS THE JUDICIARY

uhuru-icc-stress.jpg President Uhuru should not fault the judiciary for injuncting the senate on the impeachment of embu county governor. Both the senate and county assembly of embu earlier ignored a court order barring them from proceeding with impeachment of the governor.Afterwhich the highcourt reinstated him to continue serving until his case is heard and determined.Lately ten governors have ignored a summon Call by the senate to answer to claims of resource misappropriation in their counties and opted to sort for a constitution intepration from the highcourt on whether they should be summoned by the senate or not.Instead of the president giving judiciary time to Perform its mandate,he has gone ahead and claimed that the governors must honour the summon.where was the president when the senate ignored a court order?it isn't because he really believes in accountability as he want us to think!No Never! He is furthering the notion that devolved governments are untenable/unsustainable and that the judiciary got no role to play only to be left with a tranny of numbers legistlature to keep him on check. Remember he already has dissolution of counties in mind.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time.

And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Mulolongo is not just a place.

Mulolongo is not just a place. It's a whole syllabus. And deep within its curriculum is a tiny street called Zambarau where meat is sold both day and night. By day, Zambarau is a heaven of nyama. Smoke rises like prayers as meat sizzles on grills. You can find it in stew, dry fry, grilled or even boiled for the toothless. But when darkness announces its arrival, the meat form changes. It’s still meat, yes, but this one is served somewhat raw. Colourful, tender and priced depending on texture, origin, and freshness. The most popular evening meat here is called pig Porko. Everyone in Zambarau street and its tributaries knows pig meat, Porko. It is well supplied, comes in different packages and is available all night till morning. On a certain Friday evening, Katomo walked into Mulolongo feeling like a tycoon. After working for three solid weeks smoothing walls in Kalangaita, the foreman finally remembered him.
