Kenya At 50: Business As Usual.

Tomorrow is Saturday, right? Kenya is turning 50. Some folks are the jolly lot. Tonight people who are loaded are going mad all over major towns in the country celebrating what they best call jubilee. Despite all these grand celebrations by the few and fortunate Kenyans. The majority of us[ who are poor by our own making]  have no clue what is on tomorrow or what to celebrate about.

The founding fathers of this nation most of them who have left us, fought fiercely in the bush to chase away the white man. The main reason for chasing away a mzungu was to get back our land which we were dearly snatched as we closed our eyes for the missionaries to pray for us. The  incoming and long awaited African saviors instead of laying strong pillars for the young nation they knowingly planted seeds of ethnicity, corruption and impunity. All these and many cousins of these are what is wrestling us down.

At Independence mzee promised us that he knew what was our problems and he would alleviate them overnight. he highlighted poverty. diseases and ignorance as our main enemies. 50 years later ,show me a country where its people are dying of hunger if not Kenya. 50 years later, show me a nation which heavily relies on donor food. as if that's not an insult show me a nation where malaria, TB, HIV and AIDS is claiming many lives not mentioning cancer. Although efforts have been made to alleviate ignorance. show me the shocking numbers of illiteracy levels in Africa if at all Kenya will miss from the top ten i will a call it a night time miracles.

Kenya is turning 50; but still no any laudable progress has been advanced at solving the land issue. Many people who are celebrating tomorrow because the government as said its a national holiday still eke out a living ;they are landless in their own country . still many patriots who will fill i don't know which stadium to sing and dance  the freedom songs have no idea what tomorrow brings for them, they are singing and dancing because everybody around is doing the same.

All past Kenyan leaders without no reservations have failed us badly because we have let them to. Someone wise somewhere said "If you want to know how people are living in a nation just look at their politics" that's the case in our country . Politics shapes a country and its people. our M PIGS are clamoring for high pay-rise because they view themselves as our begotten sons.I wish they knew tonight just like many nights am sleeping on a hungry stomach. I wish they know am out of varsity because my poor parents cannot afford the ever rising fees. These is how we have been pampering PIGS till they have become spoiled rotten. Thanks to the new katiba we have in place.

As a nation we should take care of our youths. look at the startling statistics; the high number of unemployment- idle young men and women is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode any minute. Unless clear measure are put in place to tap this young minds the future of this nation has a real rough ride.

Its for this reasons and many more i will not join the masses to celebrate a madaraka day while our minds are not free at all, we are tied down by manacles of our on past. Instead i should be plotting how to redeem this wonderful nation from the hands of a punch of maggots who are fighting to retain statuesque.

Of Dogs And Bitches.

Kenya indeed is a country of the odds. recently the happenings in Nairobi, Mombasa and Nyahururu have left us dumbfounded. animal rights violation cases have gone on yet there are animal rights activists, whom we wonder whats their work? it all started in the MPIGS protests. the pigs were paraded at the gates of our infamous august house. they were mistreated on a broad daylight.the results of parading the pigs my the activists are hitting us hard like hurricane. in most towns demand for pork has declined and farmers are getting losses.

That one a side, in Mombasa town we were treated with another ugly incidence. our college girls being paid a peanuts by one mzungu to indulge in bestiality. whom do we blame here. parents for poor upbringing or the girls. we all agree our economic situation is pretty tough, but when it comes to openinh your legs wide for a mere dog it leaves us wiyh more questions than answers.the other the day i was arguing with a friend. as a husband what if you discover your dear wife once when she was in college had a one night stand with a DOG! it implies all this time along you have been sharing the "goods" with simba. God forbid.

At Tigoni village in Nyahururu a man was busted seriously penetrating a BITCH. this one came in as a rude shock. a big man with his senses welding a bitch. if this trend continues we are justified beyond any reasonable doubt that Kenya is OF DOGS AND BITCHES.
