Initially everyone believed that Kimunya would be found guilty by the Cocka commission. But if the final outcome  of the iquirely comes out according to expectitions, some of our politicians will have to apologise to the former minister who have not been treated hashly like we expected by the findings so far of the commission.

Kenya's IDPs

The war in Mt. Elgon has ended with displaced people going back to their homes. While everyone commends the Kibaki administration for the good work they have done, the question lingering in the minds of many Kenyans is ; is it the government's plan to let people suffer first and then come in to their rescue or is it taking the government long to know that people are suffering? One thing is certain, that the problem in the Rift valley is not too much for the administration. But why has the government not found it wise to send troops or even police to affected areas such as Molo, Kulesoi and Burnt Forest to restore peace and security? Considering the affected people are the people who devotedly voted for Kibaki, why has the president desided to neglect them. Do these people really deserve to live as IDPS when they have their own plots which they rightfully own? Isn't it the right of every Kenya to enjoy security and to live anywhere in the republic without fear? If these people or any other group of people ca continue to live like this, then nobdy should feel secure in Kenya because, these are people whose protection is enshrined in our constitution and for them to continue suffrering, then it shows the constitution we know  is not the one which is being applied. This is reason enough to fear because any one who feels like displcing you can do it with impunity.

My 2.0ers,
 
 

I just cant say why but I am not at all excited at this seemingly absurd and ridiculously huge cabinet while our parents, brothers and sisters are still languishing as IDP's in camps.  My true feeling is that somewhere somehow Kenya has hopelessly lost it's way....course if we must reward every royal friend with a cabinet appointment within the coalition government in order for us to move on  in peace.  Please continue commit our leaders to the almighty God above in prayers!

..of uncle Bob, Mwai and Raila

I'm fed up with talking about the mad Uncle Bob in Zimbabwe, and our "coalition" here in Kenya that cannot even agree on Step One - "Let's name the government", which by the way, has extremely little chance of being named today as promised...According to the latest news, President Robert Mugabe has demanded a recount of the votes due to 'miscalculations' and 'discrepancies' . . . .

Er . . . Sorry, but did I miss something?

First of all they haven't even released the official results, and also Mugabe is the same fellow who appointed the electoral commission in the first place and they are all supposed to be his henchmen, so surely if his own commission can't fiddle the results enough to have him win, isn't it about time he put his hands up and got the hell out of there??? 

And here it is totally outrageous and we can not just stand by and watch...as the story goes Ali baba and the 40 thives are at it again.
