Kiraitu abandons Speaker Muturi and endorses Raila


This is what Kiraitu had to say
"I joined the Meru Professionals and Business Community in a meeting with former Prime Minister, Rt Hon Raila Odinga 'Jakom' in a meeting where we deliberated on the interests of the Meru community. As you all know, my mission is to Make Meru Great and ensure that our people are rich and prosperous.

I have become skeptical of political friendships because you see people who haven’t quarreled becoming enemies and enemies of yesterday becoming friends. So I do not want to base politics on personal friendships. We will be bound by interests of our people. We are forming a party that will focus on the interests of the people of Meru and the region so that we can also be in the national political arena.

When our youths are empowered to be employable, when we have good roads, adequate clean water, improved agriculture and much more, these will definitely uplift the livelihoods of our people. This can only be achieved through increased resources in our Counties.

Meru produces miraa and we need modern ways of marketing our precious commodity. We therefore will hold a miraa scientific and commercialization conference next year to see how well we are going to market our miraa as juice and wine through value addition alongside the current markets we have.

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...
