Was it all a LIE?

Image
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 ...

Charging of Deputy Chief Justice over graft

Image
I feel the director of public prosecutions (DPP) is doing his job.There should be no fear or favour when one is undertaking one's job.He is doing what has never been seeing happening in Kenya,one of a kind DPP,Noordin Haji is. I hope the evidence he has in store will be adequate enough for the people he has called upon to be arrested and charged with alleged criminal offences.All Kenyans can do now is sit back and watch the happenings afterwards,but not forgetting that corruption ends with you and me.Its starts with me and you as an individual saying no to all that counts as corruption.This will drive us to the end of it. The younger generation should also be brought up in ways showing them what is good and bad,even if some will go astray from their good upbringing it will always be at the back of their minds that Corruption is no good for themselves,their families,their country and the world.

Use Social Media Platforms Responsibly

Social media is the in thing in this day and age.No one no longer waits for the prime time news to know what's going on in the country and overseas.Twitter is mostly used to spread factual news as opposed to face book and other platforms that are used. Kenyans on twitter commonly known as K.O.T have been coming up with challenges and memes to gimmick the stories running down the country and the world.With social media, news becomes exciting and the talk of town in seconds. We are however going overboard and posting what should be somewhat 'Private' or rather intimate moments in the name of it being the norm and no one would not do it or post it. According to me the post that went viral about Asbel Kiprop and the said former MCA aspirant was somewhat indecent for the public to watch.Keeping in mind social media presence is full of all ages from young to old.Am very sure someone was looking up to Asbel as a mentor or someone one would want to emulate him given tha...

Kenyan visit by former US President Obama

Image
To my opinion majority of people in Kenya were not into the visit as much as the Kogelo village residents.The media informed us about it but i think to the people on the ground it wasn't the talk of town majorly because he came in when the Worldcup tournament was coming to a close. I think the visit wasn't timely nor was it long enough for the country to really be excited about it.Most Kenyans were looking forward to the last match of the Worldcup between France and Croatia. He should plan for a longer visit next time he plans coming to Kenya and not reserve himself or rather restrict Kenyans especially the Kogelo residents from interacting with him.Kenya loves, especially because he has roots from here.I like the fact that he mentioned that "he is related to almost everyone in Kisumu,that everyone was his cousin". It was laughable yes but yet still that is the truth for most of the Kogelo residents.Now that his presidential obligations are off,he should mak...

My Worldcup Experience

Image
FIFA 2018 was the best World cup i have ever watched,my first was in 2010 where i cheered on Ghana.I told my friend i would support France to clinch the win,not seriously of-course but here we are World cup 2018 champions is France.It is such a joy.Against all odds i stood firm on supporting France to the end while majority went for Croatia. I am so excited they won,Croatia did their part as well and they played well,getting to the finals and no.2 of the World cup is no joke.Football is a really fun sport i must say and if one has the talent,its the best profession one can ever be in.Big ups France once again.

#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, ...
