Kenya is behaving like a woman scorned, whose fury knows no boundary or decorum, thanks to the ICC cases facing the president and his deputy.

It must be uniquely Kenyan; that it will take a guest to visit a home for the family to eat ‘luxurious’ foods like chapatti and chicken.

There is no doubt, Kenyans passionately love their tribes and their ancestral homes — and can kill for them.

If it was in my powers, the Kenya Premier League (KPL) would not have ended, or taken vacation as it has.

In short, I am vindicated to say Kiplagat is no different from the average village girl. This is despite the fact that she has conquered the world.

The President sent a new chief to my village three months ago — at least that is what we were meant to believe. The new chief oozes style and sophistication.

The just-concluded Moscow games gave doomsayers opportunity to cast aspersions on Kenyan athletes, who outperformed themselves.

Not even the death of some fans and constant fines have dissuaded Gor supporters from becoming unruly.

Bodybuilding is an amazing sport. It turns men into ‘ogre-like’ creatures, with huge muscles that can make them lift a loaded trailer without effort.
