Was it all a LIE?

I call my mum as usual before I sleep on 21st June 2022 and gives me the news that they received their annual bonus earlier than expected. But why Munya? Over the year CS Munya has promised tea farmers of better pay but alas they receive their bonus In June when it is supposed to be released in October as the norm. Is the national elections leading to all of this changes. But why the reduction in the bonus payment.   The dollar seems to rise and as tea is exported, they expected a rise in their payments because the pay is supposedly higher. I really hope the presidential candidates this year are keen on seen this drastic drop in tea farmers bonuses. The current president uhuru Kenyatta should also comment on why the change of the prices, why the bonus came earlier than expected and why the promise from the promise from the government on getting a higher bonus rate was not fulfilled. This is such a bad feeling for all the tea farmers especially now that it is coming ...

Christ Centered Life

Image
7th January 2018 was the first Sunday of the year 2018.It was such a great day as i was looking forward to go to church,had a fresh energy for Jesus and i knew that is what i want to do in my life-praise and worship him. Well "Christ Centered Life" happened to my church's theme for the year 2018.Having Christ as the center of it all,he being the center of my life,my health,my education,my job,my family,my friends,my relationships you mention it. How many times do we involve God in our lives or in everything we do,in our everyday activities.Most of the times as human beings we assume we got it all.Waking up,cleaning up and going to work being safe-it seems like an obvious thing,like its the norm.Have we ever thought that if it were not for God being in-charge of our lives,we would not make it.That it is God who provides the air we breath,it is Him who keeps us alive,who keeps us alive even in our sleep,keeps us safe as we move from one point to another.If only we had t...

Matatu Night Ban Crisis

The matatu night ban by the National Transport Safety Authority (NTSA) has both its merits and demerits. I agree and not agree with it which is so much confusing .The drivers who were doing the night travels now will have no work to do hence that will lead some Kenyans to losing their jobs. If the ban will be from 6 pm then the Public service vehicle (P.S.V) is parked, the driver who drove the vehicle during the day can get time to rest and drive the following morning unlike earlier on when they used to do shifts among themselves. On the other hand the people who want to travel to the destinations and arrive during the day will have their plans disoriented. A lot of Kenyans have had to sleep through the night in lodgings and spend extra money or in the vehicles they will travel in, others in the bus stops or stages and hence insecurity, cold and a lot of discomfort bombards them .The Kenyans who can afford alternative means of  transport like taking a flight or a cab will not ...

Its a New Year-Year 2018 IT IS

Image
It’s yet another year, how time flies.2017 seemed to be a long year for me as a Kenyan .It was full of politics as Kenya had its general elections held for 8th August 2017.Push and pulls from all sides of the political divide, economic times were at a terrible state with the basic needs being hard to fulfill. Jobs being hard to get despite having academic papers.   Times are of God, we thank God for year 2017,God has been good to us as a country, going through the political campaigns and the general election. We then went through a repeat election after the August 8th elections were nullified .A lot of Kenyans lost their lives out of the riots the opposition party initiated. The country was sort of divided out of the political affiliations and along tribal lines as well .Tribes in Kenya hated one another and the 2007-2008 skirmishes were almost divided. After the repeat elections on 26th October, there was another petition brought forth to the court and the court dismis...

#SomeoneTellFoxNews

According to Fox News,The Pope visits War -Torn Africa.Yes we know a few countries in Africa have had war or violence in the past but it doesn't mean we still face it. For instance in Kenya it  started from world war 1 & 2 then came the post election violence,it was tough but we overcame it.There is this thing I don't know why but Africa seems bushy and like we do not live well.I remember my sister mentioning when she had gone to visit the U.K with her hubby that people there thought they live on trees, can u just that?funny huh,I know. I am just guessing that comes in because of our darkskins so our appearance still looks like its for those who live in the forest.But anyway that doesn't matter,it still remains 'Black is Beauty'. Africa is full of potential in fact,with the pope's coming -his garments being tailor made right here in Kenya,the plans that were made by Kenyans plus the creativity forms the pictorials in pope's coming.It just doesn't ...

Kenya should borrow a Leaf from Westernized countries

Image
  Just look at the additional jobs last month in the U.S, while we still wailing over the unemployment menace in Kenya...are our leaders ever curious about how to get here? Will we ever get here? Guess that remains a rhetorical question as to where we stand. Last night was AFCON final game Then Kenya ’s former Gor Mahia’s coach, Ghost Mulee can’t be maintained, It has become a trend now that our football teams keep changing local coaches with coaches coming from Westernized countries. Who even decides on this? Now that Kenya is an election year and the next leaders will take their seats come August 2022, it is a challenge for the upcoming leaders to work on seeing another sport bring Kenya to the Limelight in Africa let alone in the world, or should we just stick to Athletics? Senegal's WIN on 6th February 2022 was just epic. Young people want to be empowered, they need to see things brought to action and not empty promises every election year. People are tired of handouts, ...
