2. Sweden should let her taxpayers know the country they give aid through SIDA is richer than than Sweden and thats why in Kenya Ministers and members of Parliament flies helicopters unlike in Sweden-
   The swedish taxpayers must stop their hard earned money to be sent to corrupt nigroe dictators south of sahara who skin their citizens to death.

4. Ethnicity now ranked as a national disaster
   By Edwin Cheserek
   ELDORET, KENYA: The Government has said it is addressing emerging threats and disasters that include terrorism and ethnicity.
   National Disaster Operations Centre official Jason Nyandege said a number of hazards have achieved disaster classification.

   He cited terrorism, fires, ethnic tensions, road carnage, famine and drought as some of the disasters that are of public concern. Speaking during a three-day National Symposium on Disaster and Risk Production in Eldoret, Mr Nyandege said the Government has mapped all areas that are prone to disasters. He disclosed the Government has come up with emergency early warning systems to detect and forestall disasters.
   “We have set up national emergencies to reduce socio-economic vulnerabilities to disasters as well as deal with environmental hazards that trigger them,” he noted. Nyandege said information on early detection of threats would be disseminated to stakeholders for appropriate action.
   “We all have a responsibility as individuals or institutions to influence decisions and action to ensure disaster risks are reduced drastically,” he added. Though he admitted that the country has been hit by serious calamities recently, he underscored the importance of disaster management preparedness.
   Peaceful elections
   With Parliament having passed the Disaster Risk Management Policy into law, he said the strategy was at an advanced phase and would soon be operational. At the same time, he said every county would get a Disaster Management Fund that would be managed by a committee.
   “The national government will only come in if county governments are overwhelmed by disasters,” he said. The Government, he added, has beefed up security around the country to ensure peaceful elections are conducted next month. The forum, which was funded by United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), brought together various stakeholders in disaster management sector. Ms Beatrice Teya from UNDP said the organisation supports the government through capacity building.

5. Did you know that statistically Jubilee is 80% likely to be a dictatorship? Ruto’s political father MOI is a dictator, and his political career and wealth were made on fighting against reforms, including the Katiba. The same for Uhuru’s political AND biological dad. Both are political creations of Moi and KANU and have no record AT ALL of fighting for Kenyan progress. Both hate Western countries’, just like Moi. Do you think all this will change after they get power? Do you think they will be accountable to anyone, with fanatical and mindless support of the biggest and most wealthy tribes? I fear for Kenya

6. Kibaki is going to retire within 21 days left leaving millions of Kikuyu IDPs in Hitler-like Nazi camps ! yet Kikuyus are blind -fools offering their lives to a chimp soon to be caged many thousand miles away>
   The government has not prosecuted anybody for the horrific happenings of 2007-2008—over a thousand murdered (some in the most gruesome ways imaginable); many more injured and mutilated for life, raped, etc.; hundreds of thousands displaced from the homes, with many still living brutish lives in nasty tent-camps. The message seems to be that people can get away with it.

8. I found this>RAILA SHOULD SKIP TONIGHT’S PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE
   « Thread Started Today at 5:34am »
   ——————————————————————————–
   It is my opinion that Raila should skip today’s Presidential debate or send a lieutenant like Hon Abu Namwamba to stand for him.
   I take fault with CORD Presidential strategy team lacking foresight and committing the candidate to this worthless exposure. The only serious Presidential contender of Raila’s stature and therefore CORD’s concern is Jubilee’s Uhuru Kenyatta and to a lesser extent Amani’s Musalia Mudavadi.
   It adds zero value for a Presidential front-runner debating prime with a crowd of political minions for the sake of it. With due respect to PK, Karua and the lot, they stand a snowball’s chance in hell of winning this election. Empirically they are non- starters with nothing to loose. To them therefore this debate is a God-sent platform & exciting opportunity to heckle, bash & punch above their weights; all for the attention their bids have so far failed to attract on the “political free market”.
   Back in 2007 count-down to the polls, Kalonzo Musyoka then running distant third insisted on a debate with Raila. ODM out-rightly rebuffed the calls on account that Raila would only debate with main challenger Kibaki, then of PNU. Similar wisdom should have prevailed this time in CORD.
   I understand the excitement of staging this event but even in USA and the democracies (which I believe we’re trying to shadow) there are benchmarks and thresholds of whom to put where. There were other candidates running alongside Obama and Romney for the Presidency. They were simply accorded scopes of their worth in the race.

   Narrowing the field would have been easier if both Jubilee and Cord for once got in one accord and insisted to the debate organizers to exclude jokers as a condition for their participation. My point is a true Presidential debate ought to be between/among two or three heavy-weights whom the public ought to interrogate and compare/contrast for the very fact that have realistic chance of assuming the office.
   Finally I’m also concerned about the moderators of this debate. I find most of our Kenyan journalist to be either shallow (lacking the acumen), biased or timid to rebut politicians and pundits in a manner that brings them to accountability. For example Julie Gichuru (selected for this evening) is one such awesome TV star, I thoroughly adore this lady but she is a tick-box and hollow with respect to political discussions/shows. She shows little mastery of this field. I could be too colored by British standards but that it is my take of the media in my native homeland… Someone like Jeff Koinange (assuming he was not-at large) has impeccable talent for such task but yet too compromised to referee an impartial debate.
   I hope the moderators will prove me wrong by setting the natural tempo for the debate as opposed a boring academic presentations among the contenders.

9. Presidential contender Uhuru Kenyatta and his running mate William Ruto will not be exempted from ICC trials, even if they clinch the top seat next month. The International Criminal Court’s outreach coordinator Maria Kamara reiterated that the Rome Statute does not have a provision for immunity for sitting presidents, cabinet ministers or political leaders, and that Kenyatta and Ruto will have to be physically present at the Hague court, when their trial begins on 10th and 11th April. Kamara insisted that the post election violence cases were still intact, despite one of the star witnesses recanting his evidence that was used to nail Kenyatta and former head of civil service, Ambassador Francis Muthaura during the pre-trial hearings.

12. Voting Uhuruto as Another Kikuyu that means Kikuyu are going to rule Kenya for ever. Kenyatta, Moi ,Kibaki after Kibaki Uhuru what mesage is being sent to kenya smal tribes ?
    Must President come always from Kikuyus ?
    must all Kenyans security organs be led by mumbi sons and daughters?
    Must all Kenya banks & insurance companies be led by Kikuyus?
    Its up to kenyas tribes to stand up for their rights hence they have daughters and sons who also can lead!
