Wananchi From President Uhuru Backyard Got Nothing To Smile About Owing His Presidency

th-31.jpg MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF THE KIKUYU COMMUNITY NOW AGREE WITH ME THAT WE MADE A GRAVE MISTAKE by selecting Uhuru Kenyatta to try his ability to drive...to try the presidency. I am encouraged and together I believe all is not yet lost. We can still correct where we went wrong. Wacha tufanye kazi pamoja ndugu zanguni to clean this mess we are in. And by Kikuyu, I do not mean those who sit at Muthaiga Golf Club to plan and decide who should be selected to lead Kenya. I mean the commoner in the village who walks miles for water with no water. I mean Wanjiku who shares neighborhoods with Wafula, Odhiambo and Kipkemboi in Mathare slums with no access to safe housing. I mean the ordinary mwanacentral who just like other Kenyans, walks from Kawangware to industrial area each morning in search for work with no work. I mean the Kikuyu who goes to the local kiosk to buy a match box only to be turned away because his money is not enough. They agree with me that they were lied to into believing that their lives would be any better under a "mtu wetu" leadership. They accept that they did not know that the elites who constitute to 2% of their population were the ones to benefit hence the selection. They agree that indeed, the institution of the presidency is not open for trial and error nor is it available for khalongolongo games. They agree that all the problems were are in right now will not be solved by a Kikuyu, Marakwet, Rendile, Luo, Bukusu nor Digo presidency. They have agreed that these problems will be solved by a SMART PRESIDENT.

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...

WHERE TO BUY THINGS AT A BARGAIN IN NAIROBI

 1.Cereals – Get them in Nyamakima in that kichochoro for Molo matatus. Groundnuts from the market cost Sh190 per kilo, but at Nyamakima they are Sh110.

Chemicals for homemade detergent, bleach, fabric softener, disinfectant – OTC, the building with Tuskys, go upstairs, first floor. They will even explain how to mix them.  4.

If you are buying things for a shop, they deliver. Alternatively, you can turn left and walk a bit for like 100 metres where you will find many wholesale shops including FairPrice. Also look out for Israel. In Eastlei...
