Kikuyus Being Chased From Everywhere as Uhuru Looks On Helplessly

Kikuyus are being chased and no help seems to be forthcoming. Yesterday, there was a lot of MAYHEM, ETHNIC VIOLENCE IN going on in LODWAR TOWN. Mugo wa Wairimu a prominent blogger was heard crying: “As I write this, it’s all mayhem in Lodwar Town where angry Turkanas have broken into the Lodwar District Hospital Morgue and ransacking the bodies. Rioting and looting of shops and businesses owned by Kikuyus currently going on in Lodwar town. The violence is in reaction to the shooting dead of a Turkana by Turkana OCPD(a kikuyu)” As we went to press, help has not reached Lodwar and Kikuyus are panicking and running. Meanwhile in Somalia, the Somali people have retaliated against the Kenyan government which sent away their people.Kikuyus are being targeted in Somalia and are running back to Kenya in droves. Trouble for Kikuyus in Somalia started when Kenya ordered all refugees living in urban areas to return to their camps in a bid to end attacks by armed groups carried out in retaliation for Kenya’s intervention in neighbouring Somalia. Kenyans were asked to report any refugees or illegal immigrants outside the overcrowded camps – Dadaab in the east and Kakuma in the northwest – to the police, the AFP news agency reported on Tuesday. All refugees residing outside the designated refugee camps of Kakuma and Dadaab are hereby directed to return to their respective camps with immediate effect. Interior Minister Joseph Ole Lenki “Any refugee found flouting this directive will be dealt with in accordance with the law,” Interior Minister Joseph Ole Lenku said in a statement. Lenku issued the order citing “emergency security challenges” in Kenyan towns, but the move is likely to be criticised by rights groups which have discouraged similar actions in the past. Until now, refugees who could support themselves or were in need of specialised education or medical care had been allowed to live in urban areas. Lenku said “all refugees residing outside the designated refugee camps of Kakuma and Dadaab are hereby directed to return to their respective camps with immediate effect.” The refugees are now required to be housed at Dadaab, close to the Somali border, and at Kakuma, near Kenya’s frontier with South Sudan. To date, more than 2,000 Kikuyus have fled Somalia and left their businesses to the marauding Somalia. The Kenyan government caught between a rock and a hard place is looking on helplessly.

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...
