A NEO 'STUBBLE HOPPERS' HERE WITH US

During the Second World war, Adolf Hitler created a special brigade known as the brave "Stubble Hoppers" Brigade. They were dare-devil and above the law. In every operation they conducted no life was left undestroyed including even that of wildlife. They were feared for their cold blood murder of Hitler's perceived opponents. The brigade also specialized in raiding private banks and central bank and later blamed it on the "dirty pigs" (Jews). They regularly raided the Central Bank of Germany and could cart away billions of Deutschmarks together with golds, silvers, diamonds without anyone raising a figure. That was how dreaded they were. The billions of Marks thus raided would be hauled to Hitler's numerous widely spread bunkers in Germany and Austria. It is therefore very interesting that, almost a century later, a Kenya leader ruling in an invariably different political dynamics, would cart away from the central bank of Kenya, a cool ksh.15 billion of shillings to the State House! Now if your tribesmen who sit at the State house collectively scheme to raid the public coffers to a tune of billions of your own money, of which they spend on their families, a few relatives and friends, one then wonders as to why exactly do Kenyans have to slaughter each other with zeal over the presidency as if their lives depend on the stolen billions? Moreover, it has emerged that every MP cart away hundred of millions of shilling from their CDF. If you are in doubt, please read the Controller&Auditor-General (C- &AG) report. Here at home in Taita-Taveta County a cool Ksh. 300million of shillings have been reported by the C&A-G to have been transferred to a none-existent project titled "medical training college". It is yet be traced like the 15B.I believe you never saw a cent,and yet the project is a phantom. Our Governors too are carting away hundreds of millions of shillings from the County Treasuries across the country. The most ironical one is the the Senate which majorly consists of former MPs with serious audit queries over the missing millions of shillings from the CDF and who now want their perks raised and have even passed a law authorizing themselves to control the county resources through County Development Boards. You see, that is the more reason why i am not shading any tears for Kisumu Senator, Prof. Anyany' Nyongo' unceremonious send off by Kisumu youths who were and still are against the CBD, when he attempted to chair the first Kisumu CDB meeting. Good boys, keep it up! Of course, I am not about to forget or omit the MCAs' cart away too. They are not to be left behind. Though, on face value, they may appear to be feeding on "mukia" in the name of foreign visits where they earn hundred thousands of shillings. But, it is important to note that 47 'mukias' are almost equal to 24 bulls. It is therefore imperative that you don't codon this conduct by being a passive witness to this wanton theft of public properties even if you are a political soul mate, friend or relative of the president, governor, senator, MP and MCAs.

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...

Political Tumbocrats

*Political Tumbocrats* A political tumbocrat is a person who hangs around elected leaders to satisfy her/his personal greed. Tumbocrats sees a leader as a demigod whom they worship. The r bootlickers and sycophants of the highest order. Their work is to defend leaders and cheat public that something is happening. A tumbocrat has no values or morals. A tumbocrat is not interested with common good but personal good. A tumbocrat has no vision but appetite for being near high table of power  and feeding on crumbs.   Tumbocrats are greatest obstacles to development in our country. They protect the corrupt and shield the bad governance in so far as they get something to fill their tumbos. They are good and articulate in arguments but they lack the moral authority because they don't value truth. Every political leader is surrounded by tumbocrats. They are the noise makers in social media and around leaders defending them. They peddle lies en create propagandas . They confuse the publ...
