Stop rumors about Mwai Kibaki and instead, pray for his quick recovery
Kenyans must learn to shun rumors and relearn a vehement prayer to our former President Mwai Kibaki. It hurts to hear people spreading unconfirmed report about him! The mare fact of him being flown to South Africa for specialized treatment on Sunday, August 22 does not necessarily mean that, he’s extremely off and dead!

John Kerry’s visit to Kenya in the wake of TICAD is suspect!
To Kerry and US cronies: we know your game! Kindly keep off USA’s archaic schemes to dissolute Kenya’s progressive agenda. It’s not by coincident that USA Secretary of State John Kerry is visiting Kenya at the wake of the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD-VI) Summit! His coming is by design and it’s suspicious!

Mr. President, settle tuition fee quagmire in the approved public-private varsity sponsorship deal
The new deal between government of Kenya and private varsities that will see private varsities admitting government sponsored students is set to flop badly if, tuition fee arithmetic is not adequately settled. Where else the government charges 70,000 ksh for each student in public universities per year, this money is a drop in the ocean to even sustain a student for one trimester in any private university in Kenya!

Ongata Rongai residents fed up with corrupt traffic police
Ongata Rongai residents in Nairobi are fed up with services rendered by corrupt and hell-bent traffic police assigned to man Magadi road. Enough is enough! Residents and motorists plying magadi road have castigated traffic police officers in Ongata Rongai for their ineptness, corruption and open bribery. These law enforcers have established an extortion ring at strategic points between Bomas of Kenya, Multimedia Univeristy and Maasai lodge junction where they use this points to pay police their ‘dues’ to allow them overtake and reach faster! Upon payment, these notorious matatu za ronga” or otherwise known as “matatu za wire” are therefore free to obstruct and/or overtake aimlessly. The worst still is when in full glare of a police officer/s. These matatu do overlap in full glare of police officers and worse still, they smile and communicate with coded language with conductors and drivers allowing them to perpetrate this evil! It’s now official; each traffic officer on Magadi Road coll

Mr. President, disband NCIC
Mr. President, did you know that peace index is at its worst in your country since introduction of multiparty democracy in Kenya? Apparently, this truth has been brought to fore by none other than NCIC Chairman Francis Ole Kaparo and if his recent confession is true, that Kenya is currently divided at its worst, then, National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) must be disbanded! Reason –It has failed miserably in its core business!

Kudos Nkaissery-National security must supersede the voices of refugees
Truth be told, it comes a time when national security and its related interests supersede any other external interest in any given country! The reality of this axiom has just downed into Kenyan soil! The Kenya government through its Interior Cabinet Secretary Hon. Joseph Nkaissary has confirmed the Government’s decision to close down selected refugee camps in Kenya due to “very heavy” economic, security and environmental issues. Those due to close include Dadaab, the largest refugee camp in the world, home to more than 300,000 people on the Kenya-Somalia border. Kenya plans to close all of its refugee camps in a move that would displace more than 600,000 people.

The IEBC stalemate is a threat to peace
The un-ending debacle over plans by the opposition CORD to eject IEBC officers from office calls for an an urgent need to have a sober dialogue over the current standoff in the country. While Cord maintains it will continue with its push to have the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission disbanded, the electoral commission chairman Issack Hassan said last week that commissioners he and his fellow commissioners will not resign unless Cord provides evidence that the commission is out to favour Jubilee during 2017 general election. It’s at this point that we call for a sober dialogue that will see law being followed. Indeed, the political atmosphere in Kenya isn’t good at all and this is scaring!

Kudos CBK governor for defending Wanjiku
This is painful! How can a common mwananchi pay his tax while entrusted banks to remit the same evade paying? Indeed, the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) has demonstrated its capacity to defend the common mwananchi by reigning over rogue banks. The regulator need to step up the effort and seek ways to weed out shadowy banks and investors who exercise evil control or influence decisions in banks’ lending policies that are not intandem with CBK. Those in violation of the suitability standards, including having a history of fraudulent activities, should face the prospect of forfeiting their banking rights in Kenya and having their shares sold among other penalties to recover monies stolen from innocent depositors whose monies have gone under receivership too!

Uhuruto must pursue peace and reconciliation after ICC victory
President Uhuru Kenyatta and the deputy President William Samoei Ruto must now transverse Kenya with a clear message of peace and reconciliation. Truth of the matter is that many victims of post-election violence are still destitute, seeking justice or reparations, and are still suffering from the injuries they sustained during the violence that nearly tore apart Kenya in 2007/8 post-election violence. The victims are still awaiting justice. It is vital that their voices are heard and urgent action is taken. Many of the displaced have yet to be resettled or compensated, many of the injured or the families of those killed have yet to receive reparation to help rebuild their shattered lives and most of the perpetrators have yet to face justice.

Nkaissery should not take this Island for granted.

I urge you to employ qualified political advisors who should in-turn invest in political mind-game of Kenya citizenry. I wish you can refrain from the ill-advised decisions of creating political vacuum by appointing duly elected legislators into your cabinet. These by elections are unnecessary for you but anyhow, good for Kenya! We thought you learned from Kajiado central and Bomet defeat. In Kajiado central, ODM's Elijah Memusi flooded your preferred JAP candidate Patrick Tutui in the battle to to succeed another ill-advised Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph Nkaissery whom you appointed as secretary in your cabinet.

The traffic snarl-up has become a painful feature to commuters and residents of Ongata Rongai and its environs.

This in turn has continued to erode the social economic gains in Ongata Rongai and its environs.
