MUsalia Mudavadi...life and times

Like the prodigal son , Musalia came of age after being given some leeway in ODM and he though the had his inheritance. The young man wanted to enjoy life on his own , so he packed his bags and left for the city. Little did he know what lay ahead. There are many a dark forces in the city, pretty girls and all manner of goodies. If only our son listen to the advice of the old, the  story would be even more interesting.

any bright mind knows the end of this story, but may be its the beginning you want to hear the most....drop me a line..

Kenya:Polititians and Bought Degrees

With the promulgation of the new Constitution, Kenyan politicians seems to find themselves between a hard place and a rock. The new law now demands that members of the respective houses should have the minimum of a collage degree. Seeing as it is, not many of the current members fit in this bill. It is claimed that a good number of them have gone out of their way to buy degrees in order for them to comply with the law and thus secure at best  a nomination to contest in the coming elections. 

The Elections Act 2011, requires that one is a holder of a degree to qualify to contest for either governor and senate seat. Section 22 of the Act states, "a person may be nominated as a candidate for election as president, deputy president, county governor or deputy county governor, only if the person is a holder of degree from a university recognized in Kenya.

It seems this lot will do just anything so as to remain in the lame light.

Rescueing Somalia-AU progress


Much as it seems that the thurde was stolen fron KDF by Amison through the AU, Kenya must be remebered to have dared throw the first stone. The action by KDF set the ball rolling for vigourous action from the African Union and the international community. The fruits of the labour of the Kenyan soldiers is slow paying with the capture of another strong hold of the condemned group. Slowly Somalia is assuming semblence to sanity and its now up to the people of this would be great nation to put their feet forward and chart the way to a peaceful and prospeous Somalia.

A Somali Replica in the Making in Yemen


If the events reported by the media are anything to go by,then Yemen could well be on its way to the failed state category,fast. These developments should give our very own Somalia some consolation as they are not alone there. One thing that should be clarified is the lack of zeel from the international world to seek some sort of order. No one seems bothered that much, they cared for Lybia and Egypt and of late Syria but Yemen ,well they can just continue to languish in their poverty.

The National Alliance Launch


It was pomp and colour at the launch of TNA party. The vehicle as they like to call it, that will be used to drive Uhuru Kenyatta's political agenda. Those behind him say this move breaking a way from the past. That much is true, the money spent on this launch that has been done national is staggering. Two, his and Kalembe Ndiles party(TIP) are the only that have used articles in their acromym. It goes to show how blonde the brains behind the party are. before i sound too synical lets wish Uhuru well one question that i beg him to answer is,how is he going to deal with the ICC matter. Does he really believe that,that can be swept under the table?
This Gado cartoon best exemplifies what TNA is all about.Politics is not about who has the most money, its about you will help most people make money and not just cronies.

The Fourth President of Kenya?


On the campaign trail,in bars ,on-line in the media and in the streets debate is rife. Political parties are formed , others are dying while others are being revived. All this is in an effort to capture the admiration of Kenyans and win their support for the coveted Office on the Hill that is state house. We have had insults exchanged , threats made and pompous manifestos crafted. They have told us they see the rising number of youths and know job creation is something they will want to look at. They have told us doing things the old way is what they want to break a way from. in all the things they say no one tells us how they will actually do what they claim will change matters in Kenya. i wonder if these leaders to be follow the news , do they for instant know about Greece. In light to they know how much debt Kenya needs to settle. thats not even the point, the quiz is how do they intent to raise the money that governments run on. How will they finance their grand ideas, this is one of the crucail question the presidentail hopefuls should be answering and not how one Raila should retire from politics.
