Whistling during President Uhuru's state of nation address is disrespect to the Presidency - MP Isaac Mwaura

Nominated MP Isaac Mwaura has condemned President Uhuru Kenyatta's annual State of the Nation interruption by loud whistling by some parliamentarians on Thursday. “I want to condemn in the strongest of terms the behaviour by a group of MPs in the manner in which they behaved in parliament,” part of the post read. In a post on his official Facebook account, Mwaura called on leaders to help unite the country and respect all institutions. “The institution of the presidency is the symbol of the unity of the nation and should be respected even if you may not like the occupant,” Mwaura said. “To be honest, that was a very dishonourable conduct that has just cost Hon Opiyo Wandayi his parliamentary seat.” The MP nominated by ODM was reacting after several Mps members of the Opposition MPs were thrown outby Speaker Justin Muturi for interrupting President Uhuru by whistling, forcing him to stop till order was restored. Mps who were thrown out include ODM national chairman John Mbadi, Ruaraka MP TJ Kajwang and Homa Bay woman representative Gladys Wanga. Also among thrown out were Homa Bay Senator Moses Kajwang, Mbita MP Millie Odhiambo, Nyando MP Fred Outa and Dagoretti North MP Simba Arati.

"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...
