How often do you wash your towel? Some people wash once a week, while some, once a year. The towel is a fertile breeding ground for millions of microbes, especially those found on human skin and on the gut. No wonder the towel is one of the objects that facilitate fecal-oral contamination (literally connecting the two ends of the gut). Worse still, most people keep towels in the bathroom (near the toilet). Every flush of the toilet sends mist with millions of microbes, ranging from H.pylori, salmonella and other deadly bacteria and viruses. When you wash your hands ready for a meal, and dry them with your body towel, there's high chance you are directly ingesting your fecal matter, or, if in a shared lavatory, someone else's faeces. Unless cleaned well, viruses such as human papillomavirus (causes warts, anal cancer and cervical cancer) can be transmitted when towels are shared with infected individuals. So, what to do? 1. Launder towels once a week. 2. Use hot water and det...
Intolerant to feedback? President Uhuru Kenyatta has removed the Facebook post where he was told by thousands of Kenyans that he is the worst tribalist in the history of the country. Thousands of disgruntled citizens, including his ethnic Kikuyu, told the President to his face that his manner of public appointments is living the country divided and people highly angered. He pulled it down. Intolerant? Here is one of the posts: Mr. KIURA KABIRU wrote: “There has been much grumbling and actually its true, that this Government is falling to the vices of the Govts b4 it-TRIBALISM in senior most positions. Every time there is a replacement its between 2 communities-KIKUYUS or KALENJINS. You at the top seats don’t feel the heat down hear, the hot hatred heats from other 40 tribes, you don’t bare the insults we get on the streets-GREEDY KIKUYUS: you want everything for yourselves, you don’t experience our hustles and tussles we undergo as we tries to eke a living around. We have to blush shoulders with each and every other tribe in our jobs or businesses but it hurts our entrepreneurial skills badly every time this issue of tribalism crops up from the same-same community customers we want to woo, endear n serve. Mr. President if you do listen and i hope you dearly do, make a government to be admired, live up to your promise-AN ALL INCLUSIVE GOVT IRREGARDLESS OF OUR ORIGINS: Reach out to other tribes-I think in other tribes too there are deft and multi-talented professionals: professionals cant be only from YOUR TRIBES or RUTO’S Communities only, others too have,reach out onto them to bring a regional balance in sharing this National cake. We hate insults we get from the streets. We detests the suspicious looks we receive on streets anytime time we speaks our tongues, we dont at all like it the mistrust mistreatment we are subjected to in our jobs by members from other tribes not that the mistakes are ours but Yours and your advisers’. Us we just exercised our democratic rights in anchoring you to your office hoping you would help us as Kenyans achieve our dreams-BUILDING AN ALL INCLUSIVE KENYA, AN ADMIRED KENYA, A BETTER AND DIFFERENT REGIME FOR THIS GOOD NATION-are you up-to the task!? Other decision making are yours-depends on you not us-our rights ended with the casting of our VOTES TO YOU. So change these images, let the Mirror reflect with newer national-wide images, you need these reflection come the next 15 yrs or so you intend your Umbrella to rule. Sam Kamau Bigsam SAYS”:> “I hope Uhuru and his close advisers read the heated debate and anger in response to his FB post about the swearing in of the new NYS boss. The actions of Waiguru and by extension Uhuru only serve to reinforce the notion that only one tribe is favoured in Kenya and most important , it serves to alienate ordinary Kikuyus like me who are not beneficiaries of the Kukuyu presidency but suffer the same plight as all Kenyans. Of a greater concern however , is the fact that our brothers from Rift Valley are unhappy and have a right to be and In that sense, Waiguru’s actions are a liability to the Jubilee unity and to Uhuru”
