KIAMBU WOMAN IS A SMALL ARMY

By Serah Kahiu
I actually feel sorry for anyone who picks up a fight with a Kiambu woman. Wee unatoka na huko na wazimu yako unakuja kuchokoza. The first time she will forgive you. But you repeat again and again, she will eventually snap. She will cry a little. Then her stakeholders who cannot stand to see her cry will deal with you kakamoniasry. Yaani hata wewe utajishangaa vile utatendwa.
You may think she is tiny and helpless and harmless coz she's God fearing member of jumuiya/guild/mothersUnion. But she is never alone. In fact for every small, quiet Kiambu woman, is an army of Loyal brothers (biological and adopted) who will do ANYTHING for her. Anything. I have seen very bad things happen to those who chokoza these ladies repeatedly and unnecessarily. I have been told that bad things have been done on my behalf gasps by my fanatical brotherly defenders, some of whom I've never even met.
So I try my best to walk away from these wachokozi coz I know a drop of my tear can lead to Uhm... very bad things happening to clueless forkojembes. In other words, there are people who bask in the happiness of such woman and almost worship it. So when that happiness departs, they will do anything to bring it back. They will remove that which took away this happiness.
We Kiambu women work hardest, Pray harder and Play hard with that money we made. Just let us do it in peace.
Ndamûthaitha priss, tiganai nao. Nî mwaki wa guotera haraya

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...
