Why has Ringera taken six years to publish the names of corrupt men and women? Was it a move to protect his position? if he truely was doing his job, he would have let the wanainchi know about the corrupt people everytime he caught one. Now, even though he may be right with his intention, it may appear in the eyes of the public like me he is just trying not to die alone in the war of corruption in Kenya.

Second, if the published list is true to the letter of the law, I suggest that no one in mentioned in the list should be allowed to contest the next general elections 2012

Semenya is just a woman with a man running power. period! Iam not sure of her deep voice but good runners ought to have them muscles. And its not easy to gain and shape them. We should be admiring her rather than questioning her gender.
Solomon Kimuyu, your comments have nothing to do with Semenya so I wonder why you added them here. Post such under Kenyan politics to give meaning.
When ni mweusi,it brings doubts.What if it was mzungu?
Semenya is a ‘hermaphrodite’
THE controversy over gender row champion runner Caster Semenya deepened today — after reports claimed sex swap tests have shown she is a HERMAPHRODITE.
South African gold-medallist Semenya, 18, has both male and female organs, it was claimed.
And sources close to the International Association of Athletics Federations — who ordered extensive tests on the teen after her amazing 800m win at the World Athletics Championships last month — say the results mean she could still be stripped of her medal.
Semenya is claimed to have NO womb or ovaries — and has internal testes, the male sexual organs which produce testosterone.

Dame: Semenya’s case has got nothing to do with race because records show that in the past, non-blacks have also been regarded with suspicion concerning their masculinity as female athletes. The whole “gender test” issue is so complicated and no clear answers are available yet for the case of Semenya, who is currently reported to be having both male and female organs.
Interestingly, transgenders (through surgery) are now allowed to compete if they have been through hormonal therapy for two years to replace male hormones making them almost totally female.
Outright cheating by enlisting a man to compete as a woman was noted during the 1936 Berlin Olympics when the Nazi Germans banned a Jewish female athlete from representing the country. A German man was used and he became fourth in the high jump competition. He later revealed living uncomfortably during the Olympics because he could not even shower with the other female athletes.
Other measures (beyond the chromosome tests), should be used in determining Semenya’s gender – especially given that her family, friends and the entire nation of South Africa support her as a woman.
Extensive physical examinations of Semenya, who is just 18 and from a remote village in the country’s far north, has shown the athlete is technically a hermaphrodite. Medical reports indicate she has no ovaries, but rather has internal male testes, which are producing large amounts of testosterone.
It is believed the IAAF was hoping to consider the ramifications of the results before publishing details.
One possibility would be to allow Semenya to retain her gold medal, but award a second gold to the runner-up, Janeth Jepkosgei from Kenya.
“This is a medical issue and not a doping issue where she was deliberately cheating,” an IAAF spokesman, Nick Davies, told the Herald.
“These tests do not suggest any suspicion of deliberate misconduct but seek to assess the possibility of a potential medical condition which would give Semenya an unfair advantage over her competitors. There is no automatic disqualification of results in a case like this.”

If we understand people who are homosexual,I think it is time that the hermaphrodites to take up the issue and let the world know it is not their will,but nature.I would recommend you to watch hermaphrodites-porno.It is only mothers(parents) and the porno industry who understand them.Many have no hope,live in misery and this is one case.If she has been a “girl“ all through,i.e lived a life of a girl, and their is evidence in her history,this will be total discrimination.
Thank you S. Africa for giving Semenya a chance to fulfill her dream.

Semenya’s case is unique but if she has more male hormones than normal, then it is unfair for her to compete against other women.
The media was really wrong the way they handled semenyas medical findings. your docktor is not surposed to give info bout patients to the media the way the did it. i tell you guys if it was a case of mungusu, it could have been dealt with from another angle
