The recent tours museveni has been making together with the freebies he has been dishing out
are making me kidogo uncomfy, not that i have ever trusted the former warlord. His quest for
EAC leadership is somehow disturbing considering that his country has had the least
contribution in whatever terms to the muungano and the fact that he seems to be going against
the wishes of the majority ugadans , arent his goals kinda silfish ?
''watch this space'' ...................................
Hey the shakers (tremors) are finally over and it feels good kube God is still the mightiest i had forgotten i have to restart my relationship with him.
Got this from a friend found it quite something,

THE MUNGIKI ISSUE
I have refrained from commenting about this issue for a long time though it has been killing me till i cant hold no more.
My understanding of the whole issue is that mungiki is just the first symptom of a very serious ailment growing/brewing within the Kenya society.
I don't wanna be the prophet of doom but normally after first symptom there comes the next one if first one is ignored or handled inappropriately, mungiki didn't come from nowhere nor did taliban and several others which as much as we would like to believe they are gone, the truth is they are still very much around.
The ''quick fix'' approach to this issue wont work( own view ) , just like a head ache which we normally brush aside by taking pain killer and then its business as usual. The fact as we all know is that a head ache is just a symptom the body is saying something is wrong and you need to see a doctor for thorough check up .
How many adherents are the police capable of killing or arresting ? by their own assertions mungiki claim to be over a million, are we ready to kill one million Kenyans and the our problems will be over? experience has shown that force rarely solves anything, how many Kenyans believe Bush used the right approach in dealing with Iraq .
Why why ! (sob) cant we use our very good diplomacy that we are very good at as demonstrated in our role in Sudan and Somalia, why cant we can also use it in Kenya because clearly there is a problem.
Somebody make me understand why we cant form a commission of inquiry to look into the root causes of this groups and come up with recommendations , probably the team that was very instrumental in Sudan peace process will find this a piece of cake.That problem in mount elgon could also be included not forgetting cattle rustling between pokot and marakwet and also in north eastern and yes coast land problems.
disclaimer: i am not a supporter of mungiki or any other illegal groups nor do i support any of their activities or approach.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ECONOMY GROWTH
No i have nothing against the media, i say this because i may seem to hit on them previously
and in the future. ( last paragraph )
Now to the issue, i think i finally agree with the minister for finance that our economy grew/is growing ( whatever) by over 6 % , yesterday there came to be another ''daily'' in the name of the Nairobi star which if the stories i hear are correct sold out by nine.
That what makes my point because if nairobians were able to put 35 bob more onto their budget to an extent of overwhelming the publisher, then the economy really grew. I am almost certain that the sales of the two main papers didn't notice the new entrant, am not sure about the sales of 'others' but again the target was the mainstream readers .
My point therefore is valid because the only explanation is those who normally reads any of the two or both added another item on the daily to buy list without flinching, i kind a think there is money for a few more papers and such like stuff.
Personally i wont talk about the contents/quality of the paper that i will leave to all of you who bought one and the several comments by fellow blogger, or should i say time will tell .
Just a thought can somebody sue for getting a low deal than what was advertised( impression created) ; any lawyer in the house?
and in the future. ( last paragraph )

This and that
Today is Friday and i don't wanna spoil you day with my whining at least not on a furahi day.
So, safcom did it again another clean sweep 17b wow! i was wondering how the hell they do that
til i discovered its not them its us ( clap for yourself here), puzzled?...... don't be look at today's
daily nation editorial cartoon ( get it ?).
We've got a new kid in town or shud a say in k-e-n-y-a , ombudsman one Simani James i sow
him on tv jana, he didn't look so ombusmanish to me will he take the heat ? am tempted to think
that his should be a fully fledged national office with wings in every division in this country and
should work off provincial administration ( be established in the constitution) to cut the story short.
That gtv thing didn't impress me to say the least i expected a revolution in the TV industry, i
guess if i have to "upgrade" i would rather save and invest in the new dstv family package ama!
Hii weekedi sijui itakuaje with the new beer prices ;the budget was not so friendly with the
members of walevi club, but as usual restructuring have to be made so that i continue taking
my dose that means cutting down on other things(domestic).
Its hardly lunchtime and the weekend mood has caught up with me, anyway have your self a
nice weekend usifoget kujienjooeey ! poa

To be or not to be
Lately there have been alot going on around that as much as sometimes i want to shut myself
away from current affairs, i feel dragged in to them. I don't know whether there is a coz if there
is (safely) i would like to take a brake away from national issues and international one s too, say
for a month (any assistance here.....thanks) .
Does some one think the media is at most responsible for burdening us with so much , why do i
have to get worried bcoz some politician lost in an election or is admitted in some fancy hospital
or his son is having a wedding which of course am not invited.
Why cant i just have my private life,issues, my own politics, my weddings ,my budget speech,
my breaking news etc. ete. na kathalica na kathalika..... And you who lives out of this country
only to come for bashes and then whine about how Kenyan bashes are backward, pole! next time don't come, now that you have "discovered". Sssshidwe!

UNIQUE KENYA
So many things happen in Kenya that are so unique am tempted to wonder , what is so pecurior about the country or the people who live or the history or could it be the geography,weather........WHAT ? Take the recen past events or whatever you would prefer to call them ,why do they happen to us and those that are not so unique to us why do we react so uniqely .
I will take the EALA issue for comparison purposes leave alone the more unique cases we have, why is it so difficult for us to agree on who is going to represent us while our neighbours did that with ease .
Somebody please help me to understand why i feel like we are aliens i a world not so alien to us.
