And why is it that successive governments won't do anything substantial about it? Yes we want peace, but was the cause of the fight? How many times has this happened? I mean do you mean to tell me that the Kikuyu in RV have been smiling and working along with their neighbors since 2002 without any problems at all? That's just not feasible. <br /><br />The problem is so clear yet we constantly ignore it. During 2007, there were numerous politicians going around talking about this violence, but no one paid attention. The government didn't want to arrest them even though they were clearly contravening the law because they needed their votes; and the opposition didn't chastise them either for the same reasons.<br /><br />So now we are all here throwing accusations back and forth all the while knowing the terrible truth. <br /><br />Why do these people, even though you can live anywhere, not have land in CP? Even though you may not want to hear it I will proceed; because the very people attending their funeral have hogged all the land in CP for themselves. When Orengo suggested that land policy be changed so a way can be found for these people to settle in CP, Uhuru was the first to raise dust over this. He gave the most common of all excuses given by any unfairly landed Kenyan; Kenya is a country in which people can live anywhere they wish.Translation: We don't have land for them in CP. <br /><br />The very reason why the elections were stolen last year was for no other purpose than financial monopoly of our country by a few individuals. Did anyone notice how the Safcom IPO was set for Jan even though no one knew who would win the electio? And how fast it was put through? And what about that Grand (or should I call it LAICO?) Regency deal? <br /><br />Someone obviously owed a lot of favors. And now the new owners of Migingo have come to claim their prize. <br /><br />In 2007 I cried unashamedly for my country. 2012, I will do something about all this. I only hope you will join me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-23797582081300314652009-05-18T13:25:00.000-07:002009-05-18T13:25:00.000-07:00Mr Waweru

To date, neither Kibaki nor his security apparatus have produced a scintilla or iota of evidence linking ANY Kalenjin as the perpetrator of what was clearly a staged arson orchestrated by Kibaki to camouflage the fact that he stole the election. Clearly, Kibaki had the motive to deflect the nation and the world's attention from the fact that he had stolen an election. It is clear that this tragedy was mooted, planned and executed by Kyuks.

It has launched a search for a public relations and lobby firm to be based in the United States, where much of its work will be in Washington and New York.<br /><br />Washington is the seat of the United States Government, now headed by Mr Barack Obama, whose father was Kenyan and New York is the home of the United Nations, where key decisions in international diplomacy are determined.<br /><br />The gravity of this image building assignment is underlined in an advertisement appearing in last week’s issue of The Economist, which stresses that applying firms must have more than five years’ experience “working for foreign governments in managing relations with key government and public institutions.”<br /><br />Clearly, the Grand Coalition is convinced that its diplomatic representatives in the world’s most powerful nation need help in the delicate task of pushing for support, influencing decisions and defending the unsavoury aspect of its decisions and deeds back home.<br /><br />Image is important for governments. It can make all the difference between economic growth and shrinkage and will easily determine the clout a head of State wields in the corridors of foreign ministries overseas, in this case the State Department, Congress, the Senate, the White House and the United Nations.<br /><br />Kenya has two missions in the United States – one in Washington headed by the country’s ambassador to the United States and another in New York representing Nairobi at the United Nations. Have the two been found wanting or has the government simply decided to be more aggressive in the pursuit of its interests under an Obama government?<br /><br />The man in charge of Washington, Mr Rateng’ Ogego, also oversees a consular office in Los Angeles, on the west coast. Mr Obama’s historic electoral victory left Mr Ogego, once a left-leaning political activist opposed to the dictatorship of Daniel arap Moi, in a rather awkward position.<br /><br />As envoy, he had crossed swords with the fast-rising Illinois senator when Mr Obama visited Kenya and criticised the Kibaki government’s handling of corruption in the wake of the Anglo Leasing scandal and its governance record.<br /><br />Mr Obama had complained in a speech at the University of Nairobi that corruption and tribalism had reached a crisis point, but Mr Ogego in a letter to the senator retorted that the attack was uninformed and in bad taste. There was obviously nothing personal.<br /><br />Mr Ogego’s defenders will argue that he was simply pushing the line laid out by Nairobi, where Foreign minister Raphael Tuju had similarly issued a stinging attack on Mr Obama, questioning the senator’s understanding of Kenyan affairs.<br /><br />In turning to an image maker, the Kenyan Government is taking a well-trodden path. A similar initiative by the Museveni government next door has stoked a furious controversy and attracted a parliamentary investigation.<br /><br />Nigeria, whose nationals feature prominently but not exclusively, in drug arrests at foreign airports and in the infamous cash transfer swindles, last month launched a “brand Nigeria” campaign and set up a department within the Information Ministry to refurbish its foreign reputation. One of its tasks is to clean up the perception of Nigerians as con artists.<br /><br />Under President Obama, lobby work is set to become harder. His government has pledged to reduce lobby influence in Washington and has barred White House aides who leave government from lobbying or working on issues they previously were involved in.<br /><br />“We need to close the revolving door that lets lobbyists come into government freely and lets them use their time in public service to promote their own interests when they leave,” President Obama said.<br /><br />Deeply concerned<br /><br />The tender for consultancy was advertised just days before US Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Johnnie Carson flew to Nairobi to express Washington’s discomfort with turf wars in the Grand Coalition Government.<br /><br />“We have seen and have felt, as far away as Washington, concerns about the stability of the coalition ... we are deeply concerned and worried whether the events of the last several weeks were again a prelude to a round of instability,” Mr Carson, himself a former US ambassador to Kenya, told reporters on the day he separately met President Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga.<br /><br />“The political tensions must not be allowed to turn into a political crisis, and a political crisis must not be allowed to turn into political violence,” he said. Kenya has been fighting hard to restore a badly battered image that started with the violence tied to the disputed December 2007 elections that left more than 1,000 dead and thousands of others displaced.<br />Matters have not been helped by the appearance of political instability arising from wrangling in the coalition government that was formed to return the country to peace. The advertisement, carried in the May 9 edition of the magazine invites consultants with a minimum of five years’ experience in public policy advocacy and communication strategy in Washington D.C. and New York to submit their applications to the Cabinet Office in Nairobi. The tender closes on May 28.<br /><br />Battered image<br /><br />Only in the last decades of the twentieth century have foreign governments found it necessary to go beyond traditional diplomacy to compete effectively in the frenzied quest for influence in Washington. By the early 1990s Japan, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France and Mexico were the biggest spenders on such activities in the US.<br /><br />The new initiative, which officials at Nairobi's Harambee House say was spawned by the Obama presidency, is designed to alter the battered image Kenya has suffered in the US since the election-related violence that rocked the country and shocked the world.<br /><br />Government spokesman Alfred Mutua on Wednesday said the government wanted to cash in on the Obama presidency to promote trade with the US and attract more tourists. “The Obama presidency is a lifetime opportunity and we need consultants to advise us from the US side about the thinking of the media and the governance structures in the US,” he said.<br /><br />It is the same Dr Mutua who once said Mr Obama was being used as a stooge of the Opposition, then led by Mr Odinga.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-698210143425570962009-05-15T15:43:00.000-07:002009-05-15T15:43:00.000-07:00You dont go to a place where the official invitati...You dont go to a place where the official invitations are sent to particular individuals.<br /><br />Remember the first protocol hitch, when they sent Kalonzo to underate PM.

However, a senior official at ODM headquarters described as "insulting and inhuman for the Government to spend resources on one community, but leave the rest to carry their own cross." The official referred to the arson attack on the family of Mr Bernard Orinda Ndege, who lost two wives and six children in revenge attacks in Naivasha.<br /><br />The revenge attacks, during which travellers to and from western Kenya were pulled out of buses and beheaded, were blamed on outlawed Mungiki gang. Asked to corroborate the official’s remarks, Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi, said, "There could have been a general feeling among ODM ministers and MPs that nobody mourned their dead. Some of them felt they were ignored and therefore so no reason to attend the burial ceremony."<br /><br />Konoin MP Julius Kones said it was regrettable the ceremony was reduced into a one-community affair. He warned this could further poison the bad blood between the two communities. He claimed certain people were trying to politicise the events.<br /><br />National Unity<br /><br />"I hope the President was not party to the political machinations of the event, but if he were, then that is the biggest blow to peace efforts in the province," he said. Eldoret South MP Peris Simam explained she was not involved in the planning.<br /><br />Eldama Ravine MP Moses Lessonet said he received a text message from Government Chief Whip George Thuo at midnight, just hours to the burial. "I was rather shocked because Kiambaa was not an incident that happened overnight. It has been with us for over a year. For the planners to wait until the last minute to invite us means we were not wanted there," he said.<br /><br />Planning Minister Wycliffe Oparanya, said if President Kibaki were serious about national unity he would have rallied members of Grand Coalition Government to attend the burial. "The organisation of the funeral was meant to isolate ODM. PNU should not accuse us of boycotting the funeral because when the President has a function, information is relayed to the Cabinet in good time. This was not done," the minister, who said he learnt of the burial on Thursday morning, told The Standard on Saturday.<br /><br />The latest storm turns attention to the other problems in the coalition, which over the past year has hobbled from one crisis to another.<br /><br />Lessonet said that peace between the Kikuyu and Kalenjin could only be attained by conclusively addressing items on Agenda Four of the National Accord, particularly the emotive land question."We are simply cheating ourselves by saying peace can be achieved by merely talking yet the pertinent issues that fuelled the violence have not been addressed," he said. Water Assistant Minister Mwangi Kiunjuri talked of how members of the Kikuyu were disposing their property — land and livestock — because of renewed uncertainty. He predicts the exodus would accelerate.<br /><br />Oparanya said the President and PNU violated the spirit of Serena Talks, which provide he and the Prime Minister appear in public together in areas ravaged by post-election violenceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-70758277316652240962009-05-15T12:45:00.000-07:002009-05-15T12:45:00.000-07:00AT LONG LAST PETER OGEGO

Mr Ndede’s visa expired the moment he lost the embassy job and he has no diplomatic immunity.<br /><br />In a letter distributed on the Internet, Ms Judy Miriga, Kenyans in diaspora spokesperson, says: “We give the minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr (Moses) Wetang’ula, and Kenya’s Coalition Government four days to remove Ogego, failing which we will evict him from office on Tuesday next week.’’<br /><br />Three weeks<br /><br />Mr Ndede has been given three weeks to leave the US. After his visa was revoked by the embassy, immigration officials stormed Mr Ndede’s house and he was detained at a Virginia station for eight hours.<br /><br />He was later freed but he and his two children must now wear an immigration tag on the leg as they await deportation.<br /><br />The Kenyan community claims that most of the recipients of the $2.5 million (Sh200 million) lost at the embassy are senior officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Nairobi.<br /><br />Contacted, Foreign Affairs permanent secretary Thuita Mwangi said he was not aware of the deportation. Kenya has no foreign mission official by the name Douglas Ndede, he added.<br /><br />However, he said some external auditors had visited Washington and they were compiling their report. He declined to comment on the Internet letter.<br /><br />PETER OGEGO IS A KNOWN THIEF -GO ASK THE EMBASSY STAFF AT THE CANADIAN HIGH COMMISSIONER!!<br />NDEDE IS JUST A FALL GUY......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-43054467577918565882009-05-15T12:30:00.000-07:002009-05-15T12:30:00.000-07:00If they really wanted to lay the dead to rest, tha...If they really wanted to lay the dead to rest, thats not the way to do it... Rest will only be achieved after agenda 4 hurdle is cleared. Even retired Moi was so "busy" on this day he had to send his condolences yet he is a professional funeral attendee nowdays.

The former wail louder than the bereaved while the later ASTROCITIZE the bleak. <br /><br />Re-living a grotesque scence only succeeds in inflaming emotions and adds no merit to an argument. Emotions answers to our hearts and gives leave to the head. Take your pick.<br /><br />Thank God for social science where a partisan newspaper can be serially quoted as authority. May be we live eternally in denial there after.Taabuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04559980653513330275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-42065448257040340122009-05-15T10:54:00.000-07:002009-05-15T10:54:00.000-07:00Professional mourners are on-call, just say whenProfessional mourners are on-call, just say whenVictornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-74139922399684954842009-05-15T10:52:00.000-07:002009-05-15T10:52:00.000-07:00«The argument about insufficient inclusion for the...«The argument about insufficient inclusion for the ODM luminaries remains.

Rift Valley MPs explained that they wouldn’t attend because that was the wish of their constituents, as reported in the <A HREF="http://www.nation.co.ke/News/-/1056/598374/-/u69r1p/-/index.html" REL="nofollow"><I>Nation</I></A>.

Makes no sense to have a state funeral for one tribe in the community while the other deaths from the same PEV were buried quietly.<br /><br />The argument about insufficient inclusion for the ODM luminaries remains. You are cheekily trying to insinuate that the boycott by the locals and the inattendance by the luminaries is one and the same thing. It is not. THe locals boycotted the event, the luminaries had prior engagements.<br /><br />But you know what Mr Waweru, am tired of this crap, here is what I suggest please arrange another burial, I shall personally hire some professional mourners to turn up. They'll come weeping and wailing and falling all over themselves, they shall build a monument everywhere you suggest. Maybe that will appease you and hopefully get you to a position where we can move forward. Specify what colours to wear, what faces to wear, how to walk etc. I think you have cheapened the memory of those departed souls.<br /><br />End of Chapter, say whatever else you may want am done with this topic.Victornoreply@blogger.com
