Jubilee Coalition Drafts Clergymen in Diabolic Bungoma Propaganda Campaign

With a month to go for the Bungoma Senatorial by - election (scheduled for Dec. 19th), Jubilee administration, continues with their unorthodox means to discredit & mudslinging CORD Co-principal Moses Wetangula ahead of the campaigns.

Jubilee busybodies Eugene Wamalwa and Musikari Kombo with the help of their ever drunk comrade Musalia Mudavadi have been burning the mid night oil to find a way of pinning down Mr. Wetangula whose popularity has risen to the shock of his adversaries.

It is worth noting that immediately after the High Court ruling that nullified Sen Wetangula's election, Kombo had to be escorted by two lorry loads of police officers to his Webuye residence. This was because the Bungoma residents were mad with him for being used to fight their popular leader even after they conceded defeat after Wetangula handed them a resounding defeat in the March 4 general election. Kombo conceded defeat and said that he was going to take care of his grandchildren and do farming.

Kombo who is known for being so mean to the extend of even not being able to buy anyone a banana has suddenly become monied and quite liquid, splashing thousands of shillings to wananchi with the aim of wooing them to his dead side.

Desperate is the man that he has now resorted to using a Webuye based pastor to advance his hate for the people's choice (Sen . Wetangula).

Pastor Nehemiah Mukubwa is Kombo's 'kanda ya moko'. He was his witness in the petition case that led to the nullification of Wetangula's election as Senator.

Pastor Mukubwa has been calling other men of the color in Bungoma threatening them and even promisingto give them money if they agree to write statements claiming that Sen. Wetangula gave them money during campaigns.

A pastor from Bungoma who is a victim of Pstr. Mukubwa's intimidations confided to us that he received a call from Mukubwa who told him to travel to Nairobi to write a statement against Wetangula and will be paid well.

Until recently, Pst. Mukubwa was a pauper in Webuye but his fortunes have changed and is now one of those who can be counted to have some coins, thanks to Kombo and Wamalwa.

Pst. Mukubwa told the Bungoma pastor that he should be on the right side of politics. "Wewe kuja Nairobi uanfike statement tumalize huyu jamaa". He went on to brag how he is well taken care of by his funders, "unaona sasa mimi naishi hapa Hilton hotel mahali singeweza kuishi maishani mwangu. Huwezi kupigana na serikali bwana" he went on.

The pastor is being housed at the luxurious Hilton hotel and is Kombo and Eugene's pointman. However, despite the antics by his antagonists, Wetangula is the people's choice and the most popular politician in Bungoma today.

The desperation by the Jubilee administration and their spanner boys in the more increasing CORD region of Western was aggravated by last week's appointment of UDF Senator Bonny Khalwale to the Finance committee of the Senate. Khalwale has declared his support for Sen. Wetangula and ensure that he reclaims his seat. The other UDF Senator from the region who is supporting Wetangula is Vihiga's George Munyasa Khaniri.

CORD plans to mount a campaign billed the 'mother of all campaigns' in Bungoma to ensure that Wetangula gets back his seat to serve his people as he had began to.

Sneaked in maliza kabisa law, media law is nothing

 

Just yesterday a friend whom I have always known as a voracious reader so much so that I have always aspired to be like her when I grow up made a confession that hit me pretty hard.

She said that Twitter has effectively killed her reading habit.

It immediately hit me that she is not alone. Short attention spans, impatience when reading or viewing anything is old news to the media because it is something that they are grappling with every day to remain successful and reach the numbers they need to reach to make their business models work. The media will get even more boring with the passing of the new media bill.



And so it is hardly surprising that hardly anybody (apart from those affected which is a tiny fraction of Kenyans) is paying attention to the Miscellaneous Amendment Bill 2013. The title alone is really, really boring. But trust me, this new proposed law (which has been carefully camouflaged by the new media bill) is a killer. Forget the media bill as draconian as it is, this one is the mother of all maliza kabisa bills.

Kindly brace yourself and ignore the pain in your brain as you shift to thinking mode for just 2 minutes.

The Miscellaneous Amendment Bill 2013, published on October 30, seeks to cap the amount of foreign funds NGOs can get to a mere 15 per cent of their entire budget. A vast majority of these important organizations are 100% donor funded. In the new Bill NGOs will only get more than the 15 per cent of their budget from foreign countries if they demonstrate extraordinary circumstance why they require the funds. And that is not all. Even then, the extra funds will have to be channeled through a federation.

Kenya as a country today would NOT be where it is without our vibrant civil society. In case you did not know it, those are the guys who wrote most of the constitution and pushed for crucial changes to the way we are governed.

A significant amount of donor funds in the country comes in through NGOs and so you can be sure that if this becomes law it will affect the economy and make life even more difficult for Kenyans who are already struggling.

So somebody wants to shut down both the media and civil society in quick succession?

But why?

What evil would they have planned for the long suffering Kenyan people many of whom are now busy on twitter and Facebook in an effort to make life just a little more bearable?

Thank you if you if you read this far and do your country a favour and raise the alarm on your twitter or Facebook account. And do tell them to remind the last people who will be leaving Kenya to remember to switch off the lights.
