SHOCK AS KENYA GOVT SPONSERS 3 INDIVIDUALS ALL FROM ONE TRIBE TO REPRENT KENYA IN EU YOUTH SUMMIT HELD AT PARIS,FRANCE

Tribalism, favouritism and negative ethnicity has been the central pillars of the Jubilee regime throughout her 1 year rule in office. Despite the widespread public outcry over the same, the government of the day seems not to relent soon from this shameless vice. According to Jubilee, Tribalism is when any other kenyan condemns dominance of a single tribe and not when public appointments are skewed in favour of one region excluding others . The cabinet secretary for devolution whose youth affairs fall under her docket seemed unmoved by the recent attempts of impeachment as she continues to favour people from her tribe and totally excluding others. Presidency is a symbol of national unity and should not be used to reward those who are perceived to be politically right.The president must accommodate all kenyans cohesively as this will greatly promote patriotism among all citizens. In the EU youth summit which just ended 14 hours ago, kenya was shamelessly represented by: Patrick Karanja Wanjohi Michael Kimani Esther Waithera All the 2 men and 1 lady are from one region if their surnames is anything to go by ,this should only happen in the case were sponsored by their county govts.But in this case the invitation came to the republic of Kenya hence the representation ought to have shown the face of kenya. The event gathered more than 100 young representatives of African and Europe youth organizations which addressed key issues including those discussed at the Summit of Heads of State and Government with the aim to enhance meaningful youth participation in the Africa-EU Partnership Key-youth leadership, entrepreneurship/employment and the role of the youth with regard to peace and security as well as an inter-generational debate with politicians and high-level officials on responses to youth problems within the Africa-EU Partnership. Its therefore shocking that in a such an event Kenya can sponsor people from 1 community as if issues discussed are regional not national. God forbid! This is one the issues which need to be addressed soonest possible otherwise kenya's future will be at stake as tribalism continue to rear its ugly head.

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...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

For years, the collapse of Libya under Muammar Gaddafi puzzled many observers across Africa and the world. How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region. Gaddafi’s Libya boasted: Free education Free healthcare Subsidized housing Cheap fuel High employment An extensive welfare system These were not myths. The United Nations Human Development Index (HDI) of 2010 ranked Libya 53rd in the world and first in Africa. Even today, that ranking stands...
