SABASABA IS A DAY TO REFLECT ON OUR CURRENT CHALLENGES, ACHIEVEMENTS, THREATS, STRENGHTHS WEAKNESESS AND OPPORTUNITIES AS A NATION

Fellow Kenyans be warned! Never be the type that only listens to the masses and rely on hearsay to arrive at a conclusion in serious matters like what we are going through as a country currently! This problem started with the last general election, when issues were raised by both sides of the political divide concerning the Party Nomination process and finally the National tallying of the presidential votes. This culminated into filing of a petition in the Supreme Court challenging the presidential election results by CORD. This was not fairly handled by the courts in terms of time allocated for hearing, perusal of the petition exhibits/support documents and delivery of the final ruling which was hurriedly instituted without official final ruling affidavit said to be ready in 6 months time. We swallowed our ambition for the sake of peace at the expense of democracy. A host of other petitions from both sides of the political divide followed suit thereafter challenging Governors, Senators, MPs, Women Reps as well as MCA's. We did see strange things started happening in our country with mass murders taking center stage, high ranking political assassinations,insecurity going to the wire, basic commodities prices sky rocketing, the government started to fumble with its campaign pledges, Our national economy life lines (Tea, tourism prices to name but a few) started playing dismally in the international market. With all these happening, Kenyans both in the diaspora and here at home all along waited to see if things would change from bad to good in earnest, instead they change from bad to worse. With all these happening, our government this week unveiled a budget of 1.8 trillion while in the real sense they are only capable of raising 800 million leaving a deficit of 1 trillion which they only intend to borrow from sources unlikely to agree to fund. Even if these sources agree to lend them then it will be like borrowing food to be consumed in one day and be in the same situation the following day. With the calling of the National dialogue, we stand a better chance to sort out the daring economic and security impasse which is threatening the real lifeline of each and every Kenyan citizen irrespective of tribe, political party, religion, class or part of the country one is hailing from. Saba Saba Day is a day worth remembering for it is the day which gave us the New Constitution we all boast of, cherish and have faith in to sort all our current and historical injustices. Fellow Kenyans SABA SABA DAY IS NOT A DAY TO LAUNCH PHYSICAL ATTACK TO THE PEOPLE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF YOUR POLITICAL DIVIDE BUT A DAY TO REFLECT ON OUR CURRENT CHALLENGES, ACHIEVEMENTS, THREATS, STRENGHTHS WEAKNESESS AND OPPORTUNITIES AS A NATION NOT A DAY TO SETTLE THE POLITICAL SCORES!!!!!

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...

MOURNING THE ONLY PRINCIPAL I KNEW

By Dr.Paul Bundi Karau I arrived at Kanyakine High School on 18th February 1999 a small village boy. I had never been to a boarding school, and certainly this is the furthest from home I had ever gone. The boys who were assigned to escort me to Mungania dorm looked at my stunted height and loudly wondered how I would survive in Beast's school.  "Who is Beast?" I asked in bewilderment. "You will know." Musyoki answered curtly. It didn't take me long to know who Beast was. The following day, as the 10 o'clock tea was being served, I heard a commotion, with boys leaving their tea and running helter-skelter towards the classrooms.  I was a fresh mono, so I didn't know what was happening. I ran along the pavement, and came upon a mighty man, who appeared to be adjusting his trousers. He yanked his belt and thrust one whip towards me. I had encountered Beast himself. He was tall, imposing, burly and endowed with a thunderous voice that could re...
