Cord, now wants a rotational presidency - Okay, forget democracy.



By Dennis Itumbi
The kind of Democracy we are told they fought for in the trenches. I do not doubt History, I know some leaders did fight for Multi Party democracy.
Why rotational Presidency? To deal with domination by two tribes. Very well.
First, like Senator Kipchumba Murkomen rightly observes, why not start the rotational idea at Cord leadership level?
Finally, on that issue, Cord has always said they are sure the party will win the 2017 elections. The problem they told us was IEBC.
Now that has been agreed upon.
Next issue introduced. My conclusion, the party is no longer interested in Elections. They want to join Government through dialogue and other undemocratic means.
Hon. Raila Odinga also wants a new voters register, why? To remove dead voters.
Almost certainly, people will always die, some out of natural causes, others of accidents etc. so even a new register will have dead voters before ballots are cast...will we need a new register again?
The Cord games will continue, the Facts will always be here.
Let those who think we will shy from that because of their lying anonymous source continue creating and believing their own hype.
FACT. FIRST. FAST.

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...

Mulolongo is not just a place.

Mulolongo is not just a place. It's a whole syllabus. And deep within its curriculum is a tiny street called Zambarau where meat is sold both day and night. By day, Zambarau is a heaven of nyama. Smoke rises like prayers as meat sizzles on grills. You can find it in stew, dry fry, grilled or even boiled for the toothless. But when darkness announces its arrival, the meat form changes. It’s still meat, yes, but this one is served somewhat raw. Colourful, tender and priced depending on texture, origin, and freshness. The most popular evening meat here is called pig Porko. Everyone in Zambarau street and its tributaries knows pig meat, Porko. It is well supplied, comes in different packages and is available all night till morning. On a certain Friday evening, Katomo walked into Mulolongo feeling like a tycoon. After working for three solid weeks smoothing walls in Kalangaita, the foreman finally remembered him. He was paid a full Ksh 790. Not a coin less. That evening, Kat...
