Interesting things to know about the towel

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.

You owe Ruto,pay back the debt-president Uhuru told

President Uhuru Kenyatta has no choice other than to back his deputy William Ruto in 2022, a section of Rift Valley leaders have said.

Mr. Ruto has geared up his campaigns to succeed Uhuru, with a section of his handlers reading mischief in handshake between the president and opposition leader Raila Odinga.

Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei, Governor Stephen Sang and vocal Senate Majority Leader said Ruto deserves the President's support because he 'stood with him during trial moment'.

"We are reading a lot in newspapers. Ruto backed your unconditionally in 2013 and 2017. Kindly reciprocate the same in 2022," Murkomen said at Kapsabet on Sunday.

Mr. Sang added: "You Excellency you said that you'll take your ten years then Ruto. We are hopeful that you will not betray your own statements."

Squabbles have rocked Jubilee party from within after the handshake with a section of leaders allied to the president's team accusing Ruto of distabilizing the country through early campaigns.

Kikuyu Council of Elders are quoted having said that Ruto should retire along with the president in 2022 since 'he would have served two terms'.

During the event, a cautious Kenyatta urged elected leaders to shift their attention in developing their respective regions.

"Newspapers will write anything but as leaders, let's focus on developing out regions. These people are hopeful that we shall deliver them from poverty."

For the better part of Monday, the two leaders camped in Bomet County where they officially commissioned KCC in Sotik, Bomet University and inauguration of Lake Region Economic Bloc expo.
