Mt.Kenya on Fire-Firefighting tips 101

They say a good section of the main water tower in kenya is burning. Mount kenya and the arbedere forest have for the last four days been engulf by flames. The kenya forest service ,KWS and the Kenya Police are all fighting the fire the best way the know. What is interesting though is that even with these many troops on the ground nothing much is happening in terms of containing the fire. I hard one official say , without shame that they are banking on rain to help put off the inferno. One question is begged here, what if the skies dont open? basic forest fire fighting must ensure the fire is not fed. This means some trees must be prooned or even cut....digging a trench is also another nice way to wade of the fire. This are simple remedies that may work, they dont require millions in equipment, action is all is needed. But its easier said than done,may the rain come lest we loose all the forest cover and wildlife in central Kenya.

Beautiful curves and road mantenance in Kenya

They claim all over that the Kibaki administaration has a prettyty good job on the kenyan roads, there is some truth but if you ask me I would differ like yellow would with purple. It is one thing to make a road and maintaining it a whole new story, something we should be looking at more. Even the mega supper highways in carlifonia and china were not cast in stone. Constant mentainance of this structures is what sets the difference. Its time the Kenya Roads Board and the relevant ministry learnt this other we will be loosing millions of dollars doing fresh roads each time we elect a new governt.

Nairobi jam and the super feeder.thika supper highway

The works on thika highway create a site to mervel. Looking good to the eye and the vehicles too. Its some magnificent fruit of careful plannning. Thats what any one looking from a diatance would want to believe but when you move closer you are hit by the reality that is a constant snal up on the inner city roads. then one wonders wouldnt, it make sense to increase the size of your tank before you emberk on fetching more water over and above the normal capacity. The city lords and the planning gurus should have worked up a plan to decongest the city roads before feeding it with more traffic. Looks common sense to me.

How Njenga Karume made his millions- the untold story

Beer not charcoal was the real game changer for Njenga. The told story seems sweet akin to a soap opera made in kenya and viewd in panama. The real story is actually sweeter akin to a movie done in colombia and enjoyed in Mexico and the rest of the capitalist world. Gema am told was the bed rock of Kikuyu politics in yore years. One man Mr Njenga you know happened to be one of the brains behind it. During the Kenyatta government Gema and Kanu were one or the same. Meaning as much we all knew Kanu to be the power behind Kenyatta the real power was GEMA. If any deal was to be brokered at any level the president and his men sort the direction and blessings from Gema. Njenga Karume at this time and for a very long time was the face of Gema. It therefore goes withiut saying that the person that worked this deals was not other tham yours truelly NK. ........in one case scenario we look at beer distrubutorship and the ring of the powerful then finance minister Mwai Kibaki, that made Njenga the real millions and not charcoal as they want us to believe.Njenga in his 'asstuteness' managed to get distributorship.

The Never Ending Illigal Strikes in Kenya

We have had a number of strikes recentlly, all of which astonishingly have been termed illegal by the relevant ministries. one question that this action has been beging is, when would a strike ever be legal in Kenya? Didn't we just have a article in the new order that allowed such? There is need to take a fresh look at many salary discipancies in almost all sectors in the Kenyan economy.

Mobile ID Regestration-Kenya moving

the move by the ministry of immigration to register persons where they are is a nice one. Such radical and efficient ways of doing things is what Kenya needs each day. We need many other services given by the government to go mobile. This also includes health care and anything you can think of..
