RAILA ODINGA to be probed by police over claims that KDF assisted UHURU/ RUTO in rigging march 4th 2013 general elections

uhuruto.jpg Former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga, is currently swimming in murky waters, after the Director of Public Prosecutions, Keriako Tobiko, directed the Inspector General of Police, David Kimaiyo, to probe Raila Odinga over his allegations that Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) assisted in rigging last year’s Presidential poll. In his letter to the IG on Thursday, Tobiko says he received a written complaint from Kiharu MP, Irungu Kangata, dated January 28 concerning remarks allegedly made by Raila during a CORD rally in Kisumu earlier that month. The DPP also directed Kangata to present his informant to the Director of Criminal Investigations to make a formal complaint and record a statement so that full investigations may be commenced. In a letter to the DPP, Kangata said he received information from a man named, Pesa Shayo, who attended the said public rally at Jomo Kenyatta Grounds on or about January 17, where Raila Odinga uttered words to the effect that military personnel were used to eject CORD supporters from the Bomas of Kenya, to enable President Uhuru Kenyatta clinch victory. The informant also said he heard Raila Odinga tell a crowd that former President Mwai Kibaki was aware of rigging plans. Tobiko certified the matter as urgent and ordered Kimaiyo to probe Raila over the allegations.

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. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. 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...

Mr. Riley was already there when they arrived, sitting on the sand, eyes closed in a deep meditation. He was shirtless, wearing camouflage-patterned shorts similar to the ones The Spellbinder styled the day he appeared on the beach and a pair of rubber diving booties with smiley face emojis scattered over them. You would have been more than amused if you saw him in them. An assistant rushed out of the billionaire’s home the instant he raised a hand toward the heavens, displaying the universal victory sign. Three crisp pages of paper were effic...

THE CROWN YOU CARRY: A Letter to My LOVELY Daughter FROM THE HEART OF A MOTHER

My Dearest Daughter, As the sun rises over the hills of Limuru, casting golden rays upon the dew-kissed tea leaves, my heart swells with pride, hope, and the wisdom only a mother can carry. You, my beautiful girl, are in school, and while the world sees a student in uniform, I see a queen in the making. I see the grace of your grandmother, the fire of your ancestors, and the promise of a bright African dawn glowing in your eyes. This Easter, God granted me the sweet joy of bonding with you—not just as a mother—but as a woman who has walked a little further on this winding road of life. You may not know it yet, but in those laughter-filled mornings and quiet evening chats, a legacy was passed on: not of gold or silver, but of values, vision, and virtue. Let me speak to your soul now, daughter of mine. Listen with your spirit. In this life, my sweet child, “a child who does not listen to the mother’s advice will sleep with the flies” — a Ghanaian proverb as old as wisdom itself. The worl...
