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.

5. If Raila is true to his principles of social democracy, how comes many of the people he associated with in the Pentagon have left his team? You cannot start a team of 5 then end up with 4 against you. That’s not social democracy!
6. If your football team is losing then you change their uniform, you haven’t solved the problem.
7. According to the culture of justice, if you are suspected of any crime, you step aside. And once your name is cleared, you step back. Why is it different with this… Uhuru Kenyatta and friends?
8. How do you pay KES 14.73 billion to 3 650 officers and you pay KES 7 billion to 500 000 teachers? Is that fair?
9. People with kids in private schools want to make the public schools better! How? You can talk about children when you have them. How many of you have children in public schools?
10. I come from a time when the title Mwalimu was respectable. Now, every child in school has a lawyer and you all know lawyers are funny people. We have to restore the dignity and respect of teachers so as to be sure of quality education.
11. This issue of tribalism is a factor contributed to by 5 percent of the community leaders who want to connect with the leading (Elite) class.
12.Somebody with a PhD in electricity would rather spend the night in the dark but a class 8 drop – out will fix it.
13. It’s a shame that we are still treating jiggers and learning how to wash hands.
14. Every person has a unique character and we must exploit this uniqueness for the progress of this country.
