THE 25 FACEBOOK FRIENDS WHO MAKE A DIFFERENCE



Facebook is a community and facebook too is a force you cannot ignore. if you doubt my words you may as well ask hosin mubbarak. as a nation with ethnic diversity, political multi opinions, different social backgrounds but a common economic staggering faculty, that is what defines kenyans. i came to facebook to be unified with a people that i not only share a history, but also a people with whom we are engrossed in the same pool of problems and on which our common aspirations emanate.  i celebrate everybody, i hate no one, i despise some and i admire many good personalities on this platform.
i dont need to mention ur name here, n i dont need to like ur updates nor even comment for you to be sure i celebrate you. as long as you are my friend or follower, regardless of our social differences, political dissenssions, religious creed, and economic segregations, we remain brothers n sister. this people i have mentioned are among the few, who piss me off, who keep me going, who give me a sense of belonging, and sometimes who make me feel like am a fool, even when am not. no emotion, no hard feelings i celebrate you people.
there we go.............

Thank you people for the company. guys let facebook be a utility, let it be a platform where we can celebrate each other, where we can engage in constructive discourse, we can cherish our different social background and tolerate our political differences. it doesn't cost anyone a thing if you engage with a stranger, the fact remains we are all kenyans and we were all created by the powerful hands of the most high. stay blest.

Bungoma County: have we made another mistake

The new dispensation has set in, maybe we expected much, but unfortunately it is business as usual.Its six months ever since i set foot in my home county Bungoma. Of course, we ve lived in despair in disillusioned as a community given the fact that our time to eat is long overdue. The new constitutional dispensation came as a beckon of hope to millions of people in the western region bringing an end to a season of coldness and the languishing in the category of repugnance.
i am among the thousands of youths who advocated for governor kenneth lusaka. i saw him as a fresh blood unpolluted by politics and polished by a long service in the public sector.Maybe I was wrong, and now the unfolding events may affirm my doubts, that a bureaucrat of lusaka's callibre was a wrong choice for the people of bungoma county. I stand to be corrected, but reports has it that, he is a remote servant of the people. some say he commutes from kitengela on a daily basis.
Maybe having served in a retrogressive region he is still in the opinion that old habits die hard. Is it true, that his cabinet is made up of faces that represent the old order like former sirisia mp John Munyasia? is it also true that one of his cabinet minister is a concubine of an influential politician in the region? and might he be working under forces of the old order like musikari kombo?
well so many questions are still begging but i just found out that the county council paraphernalia s are still in operation. am sorry people five years is a long time, maybe whispers of hope will start smoking from the governors office. lets hope and lets pray.

DO U FEEL MORE KENYAN

"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, non but ourselves can free our mind" i need not to quote the author of these words because you dont need to be a jamaican or a reggae fan to be complacent with these tenets. More than recent, kenyans made a choice, a bold decision that not only signified the passing of time but also symbolised the advent of a new dispensation that comes with a generational change.
It was a pivotal season on the arc of our history. It was a turning point from the order of mediocrity and servitude, to the times of self realization and empowerment. It was a decree suppose to consecrate our territory with authority and sense of responsibility. We were sending a message to the world, that Kenya as a nation has come of age, our democracy is maturing and our sense of responsibility is the the motive that propels our response to the call of duty. We as a people have sailed through the dynamics of history, amid delicate electioneering seasons, heart-breaking political assassinations, hard economic unfoldings and delicate tribal relations. we have endured corruption in our institutions and ignored the wet blankets who stereo typed Africans as a brood of mediocre without ability and the necessary aptitude.
Ours should be a testimony of resilience, perseverance and tolerance. We as citizens of this great nation, we have sacrificed more than we received, we have served more than we have been served, that is loyalty, and that too, is solidarity. Maybe its time to say enough is enough, and break away from the past. a past that is synonymous to ugly. A past that only ignites emotions and regrets, but also that which we would rather forget than consult, because our future is begging and demanding our vigilance.
it is now time, to rise to the occasion and attend to the missing links. it is now time to walk the contemplations of our constitution and live by its spirit. it is time to meditate and recite the tenets of this great doctrine in our hearts. Kenyans, its time we shall practice what we preach and reap where we have hard-fully sowed. It is time we shall rediscover our sense of direction and strategize on how we can bridge our aspirations with the material fruits. It is that time, Kenya, we should emancipate ourselves from mental slavery.

the begging questions

having been on the most vibrant kenyan online community twitter for sometime, i understand my home of domicile is a house build on an explosive. i always ask myself why does it have to happen that our tale is that of worries coupled with problems?
why does it happen that kenya, a country with tremendous resource should be deeply divided into tribal blocs?
why must greed and selfish motive define our leadership?
why must graft be condoned even when reality posits the non negotiable decree to do away with it?
why must we endorse a constitution that we wont uphold?
why should we create institutions for the sake of it later on to frustrate their mandate?
who should we blame for the continued division within our boundaries?
who is responsible for the dilapidating citizen loyalty to the head of state and the nation?
for how long is this going to be so?
