President Kenyatta presents a title deed to a representative of the Taita Taveta University during a rally
in Taveta Town yesterday. With him were Lands Cabinet Secretary Charity Ngilu (left) Taveta MP Naomi
Shaban and Taita Taveta Governor John Mruttu.
at Taveta Grounds also saw
Lands Cabinet Secretary Char-
ity Ngilu criticise Cord leaders
although her role does not per-
mit her to engage in politics.
Politicians, among them
Cord MPs from the Coast,
asked President Kenyatta to
ignore the Cord leaders and
their criticism.
Taveta MP Naomi Shaban
(TNA) provoked the salvo of
accusations when she described
Mr Odinga as being bitter after
losing the presidential election
in March last year.
Ignore noisemakers
We want to tell him to sit
back and watch Mr Uhuru
Kenyatta lead and develop
this country for 10 years, the
Deputy National Assembly
Majority leader said.
Mr Peter Shehe, the FPK
MP for Ganze said: We at the
Coast do not want any form of
disruptions.
Mwatate MP Andrew
Mwadime (ODM) asked the
President to ignore Opposition
critics and noisemakers and
concentrate on development.
Taita Taveta Woman Rep-
resentative Joyce Lay (ODM)
thanked the President for ini-
tiating projects in the county,
saying, they had opened up job
opportunities for wananchi.
The President told the Cord
team to show leadership by
working to raise peoples stand-
ars of living instead of engaging
in endless politics.
The responsibility of any
leader is to respect the decision
of the people, Mr Kenyatta
said at Sowen Primary School
in Taveta.
Elections are gone and the
people cannot eat your empty
words. They will eat your sweat
because they elected you to
serve them, he said.
In an apparent response
to the criticism Mr Odinga
levelled against the Jubilee
administration, the President
said his government will work
for all people irrespective of
how they voted.
He urged Opposition leaders
to work with the government to
empower the people economi-
cally even as they await election
time to start campaigns.
Governors, too, must know
that they have to work with the
government and we will work
together irrespective of the
party you belong to, he said.
The President addressed the
public after opening a modern
market and a sub-county oce
in Taveta.
Agreed to work
He inspected progress of the
Arusha Holili/Taveta/Voi Road
and the One Stop Border Post,
which is expected to open up
trade between Kenya and
Tanzania.
Taita Taveta Governor John
Mruttu said his government
was focused on development
and working for the people.
Coast governors, he said, had
also agreed to work together
to develop the region.
President Kenyatta an-
nounced that he would return
to Taveta with his Tanzanian
counterpart, President Jakaya
Kikwete, to open the two
projects.
He announced that at least
140,000 residents from the
Coast will be given title deeds
next month.
Issuance of the title deeds,
the President said, will go a
long way in ending the conicts
and wrangles in the region
whose main source is land.
The President supported the
directive by his Deputy William
Ruto to have schools release
all certicates they are holding
for students and pupils owing
them money.

A union has issued a seven-
day strike notice to Education
Cabinet Secretary Jacob
Kaimenyi demanding the
full installation of Teach-
ers Service Commission
members.
Kenya National Union of
Teachers (Knut) secretary-
general Wilson Sossion
(below) alleged there was a
plot to usurp TSCs powers
and hand them to the National
Education Board.
Speaking at the Embu
University College during
the signing of a memoran-
dum of understanding
between the institution and
Knut, which oers teachers
and their spouses a 16 per
cent discount on tuition, Mr
Sossion said TSC was inde-
pendent and should not be
interfered with.
He said failure by the
minister to install a TSC
chairman and ve directors
in four years was a sign that
the government intended to
disband or limit the commis-
sions powers.
Mr Sossion alleged that
the plans were already at an
advanced stage and would be
executed soon.
He said he had already
written a protest letter to
Prof Kaimenyi.
In a rare show of soli-
darity between the
commission and
Knut, ve TSC
county direc-
tors urged the
union to inter-
vene, saying
the education
board was
u s u r p i n g
their role.
Led by
chai r-
man Kinoti Imanyara
(Nyeri), directors Lillian
Mwangi (Embu), Justina Ki-
anga (Kirinyaga), J Kokello
(Tharaka-Nithi) and Adan
Shaban (Muranga) said the
TSC was under threat due to
the creation of two centres of
power, issuing instructions to
teachers.
Mr Sossion said lack of a
properly constituted TSC had
led to a vacuum and discipline
cases took almost two years
to be resolved.
In 2005, we shot down
the proposed constitution as
it called for the scrapping of
the TSC. In 2010, it was in-
cluded in the draft that sailed
through. We wanted an inde-
pendent TSC, he said.
Mr Sossion said county
governments were violating
the Constitution by employ-
ing pre-school teachers a
role for the TSC.
County governments have
usurped the role of the TSC
and consequently are paying
trained teachers way below the
minimum wage, he said.
Knut chairman Mudzo Nzili
said teachers did not want to
be drawn into politics but they
would demand that the law be
followed.
Anyone provoking the
teaching fraternity will be met
with force. We work with the
government of the day, but to
the extent that everything is
within the Constitution. Let
nobody in the Ministry of
Education take us
for granted, he
said.
Knut warns of strike
in seven days if TSC
ocials not named
A picture caption in the
Daily Nation yesterday on a
court case involving the theft

O
DM lawmakers have
resolved to endorse the
13-point demand they
made earlier this month includ-
ing calls for a referendum.
Yesterday, 72 leaders includ-
ing MPs, one governor and two
members of the East African
Legislative Assembly (Eala) met
for three hours at Orange House
where they issued an eight-point
statement to compliment the one
publicised by the Coalition for
Reform and Democracy (Cord)
on Saba Saba Day.
They met under what they
called the ODM Parliamentary
group during which they accused
the government of messing up
the economy, ignoring the si-
lent genocide in Mandera and
Wajir and bastardising the
Constitution.
(ODM Parliamentary
Group resolved to) condemn
the excessive borrowing by the
government that has deeply in-
debted Kenyans to unnecessary
debts (sic).
Boycott Safaricom products
(We) condemn the escala-
tion of ocial corruption in the
country and support Cords call
for the cancellation of the Sh15
billion security tender awarded
to Safaricom, Prof Anyang
Nyongo said after the meet-
ing, warning they would advise
Kenyans to boycott Safaricom
products if the deal goes on.
Safaricom was awarded the
security tender in what the
government said could help ad-
dress growing insecurity.
But the Sh15 billion deal has
been the subject of a court case
and a parliamentary investi-
gation, both questioning the
validity of the award.
The party also called for the
strengthening of devolution and
opposed what it called attempts
to reintroduce the provincial ad-
ministration.
During the Saba Saba rally,
Cord, to which ODM is a
member, demanded that the gov-
ernment addresses the escalating
cost of living, rising insecurity
through terrorism and ethnic
violence. They also called for
a referendum, disbandment of
the electoral commission and a
crackdown against the corrupt.
However, after the rally, some
of its leaders criticised the call
for the referendum.
Others like Nairobi Gover-
nor Evans Kidero criticised
the timing of the rally, saying
it had inconvenienced Nairobi
people. But yesterday, he was
the only governor at the meet-
ing. Sources told the Nation that
part of the agenda included how
to deal with MPs who oppose the
ODM agenda.
Prof Nyongo, who is ODMs
secretary-general, told reporters
the MPs had agreed to speak
with one voice in the quest for
a national referendum on issues
critical to the well-being of our
nation.
The Nation learnt that the
party was planning a retreat
early next month to address
the matter.
The referendum became a
new song after July 7 follow-
ing the failure of their demand
for national dialogue with the
government. Cord has yet to
decide which question will be
answered by voters should they
go to a referendum.
On July 7, Cord announced
they would form a team to push
for all-inclusive committee to
prepare Kenyans for the vote.
That team is yet to be formed
although the leaders were con-
verging at Orange House even
as their partners in Wiper
Movement and Ford Kenya met
simultaneously at dierent ven-
ues. They are expected to issue a
Cord statement this week.

Most members of a parliamentary
committee do not see the need to
further investigate top ocials in
the electoral commission.
The majority of the 28 members
of the Justice and Legal Aairs Com-
mittee said there was no justication
for the President to establish a tribu-
nal to investigate commissioners of
the countrys electoral agency.
The members of the committee
chaired by Mr Samuel Chepkonga
met on Wednesday evening to dis-
cuss the adoption of the nal report
on the petition.
The committees deliberations
were on the nal report to the House
on a petition by Mr Wafula Buke.
The political activist was seeking
the removal from oce of electoral
commission chairman Ahmed Isaack
Hassan, deputy Lilian Mahiri-Zaja and
members Abdullahi Sharawe, Thomas
Letangule, Mohammed Alawi Hus-
sun, Albert Camus Onyango Bwire,
Kule Galma Godana, Yusuf Nzibo and
Muthoni Wangai.
Five Cord MPs disagreed.
Grounds for removal
Nyeri County MP Priscillah
Nyokabi proposed the majority
report and she was seconded by
Konoin MP Sammy Koech.
Most committee members
endorsed a report that says the pe-
tition does not disclose grounds for
removal of the Independent Electoral
and Boundaries Commission.
But the five Cord MPs said
Mr Bukes petition had sucient
grounds, facts and evidence for
determination on matters of gross
professional misconduct and viola-
tion of the Constitution.
MPs Peter Kaluma (Homa Bay
Town), David Ochieng (Ugenya),
Christine Ombaka (Siaya Woman
Rep), Tom Kajwang (Ruaraka) and
Agostino Neto (Ndhiwa) dissented
and presented a minority report to

T
he government cannot
conrm whether Sh337
billion spent in 2012/
2013 was used lawfully as
required by the Constitution,
the Auditor General has said
in a new report that paints a
grim picture of how taxpayers
money is used.
According to the report tabled
in the National Assembly yes-
terday by Majority Leader Aden
Duale, the Sh337 billion came
from 130 nancial statements
with adverse and disclaimed
opinions out of 343 statements
scrutinised.
The Auditor Generals report
will now be scrutinised by the
Public Accounts Committee,
which invites accounting oc-
ers in each ministry to answer
the queries raised.
An adverse opinion from the
Auditor General means that the
accounts were incomplete or
misleading, and he could not
establish whether the money
was spent lawfully and in an
eective manner.
It also means that the auditor
cannot arrive at any meaning-
ful opinion from the scrutiny of
the statements. There were 45
statements with adverse opinion,
representing 13 per cent of those
studied by the auditors.
Among ministries and depart-
ments that failed to provide
documents to support their ex-
penditure for a total of Sh33.9
billion were; Internal Security,
State House, Foreign Aairs,
Home Aairs, Planning, Defence,
Information and Communication
and Education.
Mr Ouko said the audit
covered authorisation and ap-
proval of expenditure, budget
procedures, management of
bank accounts and a review of
the internal control systems set
up by the ministries and other
agencies.
Fuelled economic growth
The report also reveals that
only 17 per cent of the money
allocated in the Budget was
spent on development. This
represented a reduction by 10
per cent compared to the 2011/
2012 nancial year. The amount
was way below the 30 per cent
target that would have fuelled
economic growth.
Mr Ouko blamed the failure
to account for the Sh337 billion
on weak and inadequate main-
tenance of accounting records
in ministries and departments
during the year. There was also
a perennial problem on the
maintenance of bank and cash
accounts, poor management of
imprests and cases of expendi-
ture without the approval of
Parliament.
When the report was tabled in
the House, Speaker Justin Muturi
asked the Public Accounts Com-
mittee (PAC) to speed up the
scrutiny of the reports because
the money devolved to counties
is calculated based on the latest
audited accounts.
PAC, which is chaired
by Budalangi MP Ababu
Namwamba, is currently scru-
tinising the report from the
2011/2012 financial year. The
team aims to have its scrutiny
and recommendations on gov-
ernment spending influence
Budget allocations for ministries
in the future so that those that
have wasted or not accounted
for funds get less.
Unlike last year, when Mr
Ouko read the summary and then
tabled the reports in the House,
there was no formal presentation
and Mr Duale tabled the report
like he does other papers.
The formal presentation on
live TV was meant to lend to
the report the significance ac-

ECONOMY | Ouko says only 17 per cent of money allocated in Budget had been spent on development, a decline from 2012
corded to the reading of the Budget
statement by the National Treasury
Cabinet Secretary.
Despite the reported failures in ac-
counting, the Auditor General notes
that the number of clean statements
has increased from 15 in 2011/2012 to
41 in 2012/2013. The other positive
news was that excess expenditure
incurred without the approval of
Parliament totalled Sh38.4 million,
down from Sh7 billion the previous
year.
There was also a high absorption
rate for Budget funds at 90 per
cent.
The report also reveals that although
in its Budget statement the govern-
ment had indicated that it intended
to spend Sh1.23 trillion, the actual
amount spent was Sh1.11 trillion.
This is an increase of Sh194 million
from the previous nancial year, when
Sh920 million was spent.
Recurrent expenditure
Of the Sh1.11 trillion, Sh611 billion
was spent on recurrent expenditure,
Sh190 billion was spent on devel-
opment and Sh312 billion on the
Consolidated Fund Services.
The Consolidated Fund is the prin-
cipal government account into which
all government revenue is deposited
and whose expenditure must be ap-
proved by Parliament.
According to Mr Ouko, recurrent
expenditure increased by Sh118 billion
and Consolidated Fund Services by
Sh97 billion but development expendi-
ture dropped by 10 per cent.
It is unfortunate that development
expenditure not only decreased by 10
per cent compared to last year (2011/
2012) but was also 17 per cent of the
total expenditure which falls below
the target threshold of about 30 per
cent recommended for the countrys
economic growth,
Development expenditure also had
the highest under-expenditure at Sh67
billion, with the recurrent vote also
failing to spend Sh22 billion.
The Consolidated Fund Services
had an under-expenditure of Sh33
billion.
Development expenditure
also had the highest under-
expenditure at Sh67 billion,
with the recurrent vote also
failing to spend Sh22 bil-
lion.
At the end of that nancial
year, the government had
pending bills amounting to
Sh43.6 billion.
By June 30, last year, civil
servants owed it Sh633 mil-
lion as imprests.
The Ministry of Youth Aairs
and Sports had the highest
unaccounted for imprest at
Sh491 million.

T
he National Police Service Com-
mission yesterday gave a clean bill
of health to Mondays recruitment.
Chairman Johnston Kavuludi said
those with grievances should present
their evidence in seven days.
He said if allegations of malpractice
are proven, results of an entire recruit-
ment centre will be cancelled.
A total of 10,000 candidates aged
between 18 and 30 years, among
nearly 100,000 applicants were
picked.
The attention of the Commis-
sion has been drawn to complaints
that the exercise was fraught with
irregularities.
All claims of impropriety will
be fully investigated before the re-
cruits report for training, said Mr
Kavuludi.
Inspector-General of Police David
Kimaiyo said some candidates did not
qualify because of rigorous exercise,
medical checks, physical tness and
written examinations.
Mr Kavuludi said besides cancelling
irregular results, action will be taken
against individuals found culpable.
He said complaints could either
be dropped at the Commissions
headquarters at Sky Park Plaza in
Westlands, Nairobi, or sent by e-mail
to info@npsc.go.ke, as well as to P.O
Box 47363-00100, Nairobi.
The Independent Policing Oversight
Authority and Consumer Federation
of Kenya are among the institutions
that claimed the recruitment was
tainted by corruption.
Separately, Nyamira County Com-
missioner Josephine Onunga said
investigations were conducted fol-
lowing press reports that Mr Charles
Kamemba collapsed and died after
learning his daughter was not picked
to join the police.
Reports further claimed that he
had given a bribe of Sh300,000 to
inuence her recruitment.
Ms Onunga said initial investiga-
tions showed he died at 11 am as he
underwent treatment for diabetes and
hypertension.
She said at that time his daughter,
Rhoda Kamemba, was taking part in
the interview until 9.30pm when the
nal results were announced.
She lost the only slot available
for a female candidate to another
applicant who had the advantage
of a diploma.

A warrant of arrest issued
against Cord leader Raila Odingas
driver has been suspended.
Lawyers representing Mr Erick
Ominde Mbudwe, the Director of

a consent before High Court judge
Isaac Lenaola.
They all agreed to have the
warrant of arrest issued by a Kis-

suspended.
Even though he may have been
saved from being arrested, Mr
Mbudwe is required still to ap-
pear before the Chief magistrate
in Kisumu on July 25 to plead to the
charges of robbing with violence
and sexually assaulting Ms Nancy
Sembaror.
Attend court
State lawyer Lilian Obuo told
court that the director of public
prosecutions and the police inspec-

the suspension of the warrant of
arrest.
However the accused should
present himself to the criminal
court on July 25 to discuss the lift-

the charges and seek to be released
on bond.
Mr Mbudwe had moved to court
on Tuesday seeking to stop his ar-
rest on grounds that he was likely
to be detained without a justiable
reason.

Police gunned down
three people while two
others were lynched by a
mob yesterday.
This brings to nine the
number of people killed
in crime incidents around
Nairobi in less than 24
hours.
Cases of shooting by
Kenyans privately licensed
to carry rearms have also
increased, according to of-
cial reports.
In Ongata Rongai, po-
lice shot dead a robbery
suspect, while two accom-
plices were stoned to death
by a mob at 11.30am.
Police boss Silas Ringera
said the suspects had lured
a man and his wife out of
their home in Ruaka and
later carjacked them.
The criminals
went to the cou-
ples house at 11am
pretending they
wanted him to take
up a job. The man is
a contractor. They
drove out of
the home in
his car and
on the way
they forcibly
took control
of the ve-
hicle. The
wife jumped
out and
screamed for
help, said Mr Ringera.
The suspects shot at
police ocers who pursued
them before they were in-
tercepted near Maasai Mall
near Kiserian.
Mr Ringera said the of-
cers shot dead one of the
gangsters after the vehicle
stopped. The one who was
armed escaped, while two
others were cornered and
beaten to death by a crowd,
he said.
In another incident,
around the same time, po-
lice shot and killed a man
and a woman in Dagoretti.
They found an AK-47 rie
loaded with five bullets.
Nairobi police commander
Benson Kibui (below) said
the two were being trailed
by a team of undercover of-
cers on Naivasha Road.
The ocers were act-
ing on a tip-o. They
spotted a vehicle
they had been
looking for. The
suspects were or-
dered to stop but they
sped o. They
engaged the
ocers in a

A
cash crunch at the
Judiciary threatens
to ground delivery of
justice in the courts.
Hardest hit is witness sup-
port under the deputy registrar
that provides travel, food and
accommodation subsidies
for prosecution witnesses
from upcountry and other
far-ung areas.
A circular released on July 9
said the fund dried up a month
ago following delays by the
Treasury in releasing money
and asked the courts to advise
witnesses accordingly.
We have received com-
plaints from witnesses for
non-payment of expenses
incurred when travelling to
give evidence in court fol-
lowing the closure of the
nancial year 2013/2014, the
circular, signed by an assistant
to nance director Susan K.
Oyatsi, says.
Witnesses have been told to
record their personal details
in the nance and accounts
departments and have been
assured that payment will
be made later.
Judges and magistrates have
had to either postpone cases
until funds become available
or rely on the goodwill of in-
vestigating ocers to dig into
their own pockets to assist wit-
nesses to travel to court.
Witnesses are unlikely to
attend hearings, and this will
be detrimental to prosecu-
tion cases that rely on their
testimonies. If they are unable
to testify, the case goes up in
smoke, lawyer John Swaka
said.
For example, you would not
expect a protected witness to
spend a night in River Road,
but they cannot aord decent
accommodation uptown, he
said.
The situation is a blessing
for the defence as cases are
withdrawn for lack of wit-
nesses, the lawyer said.
A murder trial had to be
adjourned at the High Court
in Nairobi after a state coun-
sel said the witnesses are too
poor to pay for their transport
from Isinya to Nairobi.
A day earlier the investigat-
ing ocer had paid the four
witnesses bus fares.
Court ocials who are not
allowed to discuss ocial mat-
ters with the media admitted
the crisis and attributed it to
a shoe-string budget.

A top bankers Kenyan
citizenship and academic quali-
cations came under scrutiny
yesterday as the lawyer of a
sacked manager cross-exam-
ined him.
Dubai Bank chairman Has-
san Zubeidi told High Court
Judge Isaac Lenaola that he
could not recall his date of birth
in Lamu nor when he acquired
a Kenyan identity card.
He was also unable to re-
cite the national anthem and
national pledge, prompting
lawyer Ochieng Oduol, repre-
senting the banks former chief
executive Nereah Said to doubt
if he was Kenyan.
Yemen citizen
I am putting it to you that
you are Yemen citizen and not
Kenyan and that you acquired
the documents by false repre-
sentation, Mr Odul said.
Ms Said has sued the bank
for wrongful investigation after
she was accused of defrauding
Mr Zubeidi of 100,000 Euros
by pretending she could acquire
three shops for the banks
branches in Diani.
Ms Said, who joined the
bank in July 2012, left four
months later in an acrimoni-
ous fallout.
Mr Zubeidi said he was born
in Lamu in 1961 but could not
recall the date and month. He
said he left for Dubai where he
attended Dubai Primary School
for ve years but had no docu-
ments to prove this.
The Dubai Bank boss said he
later left for Yemen where he
attended Seyun Secondary but
again could not prove this. He
also could not recall the year
he attended the school.
I came back to Kenya in the
80s but cannot remember the
exact year, said Mr Zubeidi.
He said he attended Univer-
sal College where he attained a
diploma but had no document
to prove this.
On further questioning,
Mr Zubedi said he obtained
a Kenyan identity card in the
1980s in Mombasa but could
not remember the year or his
ID number.
He said he had left the card at
the courts security desk.
Mr Oduol asked Mr Zubeidi if
he worked for the Yemeni em-
bassy as a driver on returning
to Kenya and he denied it. He
also denied ever travelling on
a Yemeni passport.
It further emerged that Mr
Zubedis date and month of
birth is missing from his Ken-
yan birth certicate that was
issued in 1990.
Mr Zubedi denied allegations
he acquired the documents by
false representation.
Mr Zubedi told court his par-
ents had died but promised to
produce their death certicates.
He also promised to look for his
academic documents to prove
his school attendance in the
Middle East and Kenya.
The cross-examination was
yesterday adjourned to August
29 to allow Mr Zubeidi and
Ms Saids lawyers exchange
documents that they are rely-
ing on.
Ms Said has led a separate
case in the Industrial Court in
which she is seeking compensa-
tion for wrongful dismissal.

Chief Justice Willy Mutunga has
posted 11 new judicial ocer to the
civil division of the High Court to
clear a backlog of disputes dating
back to 1976.
The special benches have been
specically constituted to handle
the more than 1,500 pending cases
as well as the appeals that arose
from them.
A civil case deals with contracts
and torts that result in claims for
damages or injury. It is normally
settled through an order for com-
pensation or an order stopping
the conduct, which is causing the
damage.
Alternative resolution
The judges can direct parties to
seek alternative resolution through
mediation or arbitration.
This will be carried between July
21 and July 30, the CJ said.
A directive was also issued to
parties whose civil cases have been
pending to appear in court on the
given dates to show cause why the
cases should not be dismissed.

D
etectives have one
month to complete
i nv e s t i g a t i o n s
against Lamu Governor Issa
Timamy.
Mr Justice Martin Muya
declined to grant them two
months as requested by the
Director of Public Prosecu-
tions (DPP), saying such an
extension was unreasonable.
The judge said that although
the governor was out on bond,
it would be prejudicial for the
matter to hang on him for an
inordinate period.
Bearing in mind the cir-
cumstances as obtaining on
the ground, I nd one month
extension is fair and reason-
able, he said.
In his ruling, the judge said
the fact was that there were
gangs killing citizens in Lamu
and Tana River counties.
It is this courts sacred
duty to ensure that justice is
not only done, but seen to be
done to all, including the low
and the mighty.
The judge said the granting
of bond by a court was not
conclusive since it was pend-
ing further action, hence a
case could not be said to be
complete.
Assistant DPP Alexander
Muteti had, in his applica-
tion, requested the extension,
as the detectives were focusing
on international crimes and
those committed under the
Proceeds of Crime Act.
Mr Muteti said investiga-
tions were not on traditional
criminal oences.
He said displacement of
potential witnesses made it
dicult to take their state-
ments.
But lawyer Ahmednasir
Abdullahi, for the governor,
opposed the application,
saying the case had ulterior
motives. This is an attempt
to settle political scores with
the governor.
Mr Abdullahi said when the
court made its ruling releasing
the governor on bail, the case
le should have been closed.
We should not accept scare-
mongering tactics of the
prosecution. What is this never
ending investigation?
The lawyer said it was un-
fair to have the governor, who
needs to work, to be reporting
to court.
The case will be mentioned
on August 18.

A
mob stormed a police
station, beat up the com-

suspects in protest against the
death of a bar waitress at the
hands of ocers.
The estimated 3,000 people
descended on Olenguruone Po-
lice Station in Nakuru County
on Wednesday at 10am, and pro-
ceeded to release three suspects
who had been booked the previ-
ous night for petty oences.
Two armed policemen were
injured when stones were hurled
at them. They were taken to Ker-
inget Hospital.
Police boss David Wambua
also faced the wrath of the
angry residents when he tried
to stop them from forcing their
way into the police station. He
received several kicks and blows
from the mob.
Hit several times
Windows were smashed and
the national ag torn.
Business came to a standstill
when the protesters barricaded
the Olenguruone-Kiptagich
road with stones, handcarts
and tyres.
Mr Richard Rono said a
postmortem examination on
his daughter, Ms Mercy Chep-
koech Rono indicated that she
was hit several times on the head
and shoulder.
He said a report by the govern-
ment pathologist diered with
claims by policemen that the
waitress jumped out of a moving
police vehicle while drunk.
The residents ignored pleas
by District Commissioner Cyrus
Gatobu to remain calm as the
issue was being investigated.
They shouted down officers
called to calm the situation.
After a meeting that lasted
almost two hours, the Kuresoi
District Security Committee
told the residents that they had
decided to transfer the ocers
accused of killing Ms Rono.
Mr Gatobu, Mr Wambua and

ers had not moved except their
belongings.

A case filed against National
Bank chairman Mohammed Ab-

director Munir Sheikh Ahmed was
rushed to court before the police con-
cluded investigations, a prosecutor
said yesterday.
Mr Victor Mule, a deputy pros-
ecutor, said the Director of Public
Prosecutions, Mr Keriako Tobiko,
was opposed to a private prosecu-
tion against the two bank directors
by a former senior employee.
Mr Mule and lawyers Cecil Miller
and George Oraro for Mr Ahmed and
Mr Hassan respectively, urged princi-
pal magistrate Enock Cherono not to
allow former bank company secretary
Leonard Gethoi Kamweti to proceed
with the private prosecution case.
Mr Miller has led an objection to
the private case saying he is acting
in bad faith while the case is incom-
petent and devoid of merit.
Contempt of court order
He also told Mr Cherono that Mr
Kamweti was in agrant contempt of
a court order issued by Lady Justice
Rose Ougo on January 16, 2014.
Mr Oraro has also attacked the in-
tended criminal prosecution, saying
it is contrary to public policy and
interest and is actuated by malice on
the part of Mr Kamweti.
Mr Kamweti claims he was sacked
because of commencing disciplinary
action against a cousin of the two
bank chiefs.
Mr Cherono directed Mr Kamweti
to reply to the objections and sched-

When Christianoh Marwah
was taken to Ram Hospital
in Kisii on June 19, 2010, his
parents expected him to be re-
leased shortly afterwards as his
illness appeared mild.
And even when a medical re-
view indicated that he needed
minor surgery to take care of
his illness, Mr Charles Mosabi
and his wife knew their rst-
born son would soon be well
and on his way home. But
this was not was to be. Mar-
wah never walked out of the
hospital alive.
In a complaint led at the
Medical Practitioners and
Dentists Board, Marwahs
parents blamed the hospital
and its nursing sta for his
death, which they attributed
to negligence.
Nurse made a mistake
According to testimonies
presented before the board,
Marwah died after a nurse
administered drugs that had
not been prescribed by the
doctor.
The recommended surgery
was successful under Dr Ni-
cholas Tinega. The boy was
awake when he left the oper-
ating theatre and spoke with
his parents, assuring them that
he would be going home with
them shortly.
Dr Tinega then left as his
patient did not need his im-
mediate attention.
But shortly afterwards,
Marwahs condition started
to deteriorate, leaving him in
distress.
The parents attempt to get
assistance from the hospitals
nursing sta got a cold recep-
tion and they sought help from
another doctor who reviewed
the patient.
Unprescribed injection
The doctor found that the
distress was a result of an
injection the patient had been
given by the nurse.
Dr Tinega, who carried out
the operation, told the board
that he never instructed the
nurse to inject the boy with
the drug pethidine and could
not understand why the injec-
tion was administered.
Dr Tinega told the board
that the patient may have
developed respiratory distress
as a result of the injection.
The nurse should have
alerted the doctor for prompt
resuscitation which could
have made a dierence, he
said.
The board was told that the
nurse who administered the
unprescribed injection, and
whose name was given as Mr
Bichanga, disappeared after
realising his mistake.
In its verdict, the board
found the hospital guilty of
negligence which led to the
death of the child.
It ordered the management
to immediately commence
talks with the bereaved fam-
ily on compensation.
It further ordered the hos-
pital to settle the cost of the
committees sitting, which
amounted to Sh250,000.

BY MIKE MWANIKI

A
pril 10, last year, will remain etched in
the mind of top electoral commission
ocial Thomas Letangule.
At 3.30pm on that fateful day, he re-
ceived a call that his pregnant wife Esther
Kagwira Letangule was being attended to
at the Family Care Medical Centre and
Maternity Home.
Mr Letangule called his wifes driver,
a Mr Mutembei, to pick him up from his
Independent Electoral and Boundaries
Commission oce, according to presenta-
tions he made to the Medical Practitioners
and Dentists Board.
While driving there, Mr Letangule re-
ceived a text message from a nurse at the
hospital, Mr Philemon Kipchumba Rono,
saying the institution intended to refer his
wife to another hospital and that Nairobi
West Hospital was the best option.
Soon after, I got a call requesting me
to go to the hospital (Family Care Medical
Centre and Maternity Home) and since it
was raining and there was trac jam, I
alighted from the car and walked to the in-
stitution. On arrival, I was informed that my
wife had died and I then reported the case
to a police station, Mr Letangule said.
Following widespread media coverage
of Mrs Lentagules death, the Medical
Practitioners and Dentists Board started
investigations and a professional negligence
case was initiated against Prof Joseph Ka-
ranja, Dr Erick Sagwa and the hospital.
The board asked the hospital to provide
it with the patients le and also sent a
team led by Dr Stephen Ochiel to the
institution.
Soon after, Mr Letangule, lodged a formal
complaint with the board.
The board referred the complaint to
its preliminary inquiry committee and
after hearing the parties oral evidence,
it recommended that the case had merit
and referred it to the professional conduct
committee.
This team was led by Nairobi County
Health Executive Timothy Kingondu.
In its ndings, the committee established
that when Mrs Letangule went to the hos-
pital there were clear signs of danger to
the pregnancy, as her blood pressure was
high and her face was puy.
However, the hospital records do not
show a clear trail of management to ad-
dress these danger signs.
A critically ill patient was taken straight
to the maternity ward without being re-
viewed by a qualied clinician to determine
whether the patient ought to have been
managed at the said facility or referred
elsewhere, the committee said.
After questioning doctors and nurses
involved in Mrs Letangules treatment,
the committee directed that Dr Sagwa be
placed on full-time attachment at Mbagathi
District Hospital for three months from
July 1, 2014 under the supervision of Dr
Loise Mutai.
The committee also recommended that
Dr Sagwa be admonished by the boards
chairman, Prof George Magoha, and that he
should provide evidence of a valid profes-
sional indemnity cover within 14 days.
During the attachment, Dr Sagwa
should cover emergency medical triaging
and Obstetrics Department. Dr Mutai must
furnish the board chairman with monthly
reports on the performance of Dr Sagwa,
the committee directed.

N
joki Ngethe, a mother
of three, unexpectedly
developed pregnancy com-
plications on April 12, 2008.
Though generally not life threat-
ening, the complications led to her
death after a mistake by a doctor
who attended to her.
Dr Johnston Akatu was ordered
by the Medical Practitioners and
Dentists Board to compensate her
family. In addition, he was told to
pay the board Sh75,000.
Mr James Ngethe, the wom-
ans husband, explained what led
to the death as he testied before
an eight-member team set up by
the board.
One of the members was Mr
Daniel Yumbya (right).
Mr Ngethe said his wife visited
Dr Akatu at his Elgon View Medical
Cottage in Bungoma Town after
she developed pregnancy com-
plications.
She knew Dr Akatus clinic as
he often attended to her.
After an examination, the doctor
recommended that she be admit-
ted to the clinic since he needed to
perform an emergency Caesarean
section.
Mr Ngethe said a friend at the
hospital called him shortly after
the admission.
He told the board that he was
alarmed when he arrived at the
hospital and found that there was
a power outage and the generators
were not working.
One of the fundamental require-
ments of a theatre is uninterrupted
power supply.
Mr Ngethe told the team inves-
tigating the cause of the death that
he never signed the consent form
allowing the hospital to carry out
the operation.
He said when he arrived his wife
was in theatre and had delivered
a baby girl, who was handed over
to him.
I was given the baby and told
that the patient was still in the
theatre. I was not accompanied by
a nurse as I took the baby to Bun-
goma District Hospital on transfer,
Mr Ngethe told the board.
After the baby was moved to the
hospital, he returned to the clinic
to check on his wife.
Mr Ngethe said that when he
arrived he saw Dr Akatu driving
out of the clinic.
He said he tried to ask him the
condition of his wife, but the doctor
drove o without saying a word.
A nurse at the clinic broke the
news to him his wife died dur-
ing the operation. Mrs Ngethe,
who had eaten chicken and ugali
before the operation choked to
death.
A patient should not eat anything
a few hours before an operation be-
cause it causes complications.
So was the doctor aware that
she had taken food before the
operation?
According to Mr Ngethe, his
wife drank some soft drink and
ate food that had been brought
by her friends while Dr Akatu
was present.
The main allegation against the
clinic was allowing the patient to
eat while she was due for an opera-
tion, said the board in its ruling.
Dr Akatu told the board that
Mrs Ngethe arrived at the clinic
at 3pm and on examining her, he
discovered that she was draining
liquor, which was not good for the
unborn baby, hence the need for
surgery.
Due to the urgency of the mat-
ter, Dr Akatu told the board, he
made frantic eorts to reach the
husband, who arrived at the clinic
at 7.30pm.
At 8pm, the liquor had wors-
ened, which meant that the unborn
baby was unsafe, with the patient
not in active labour.
He then decided to undertake
a Caesarean section but gave the
patient and her husband time to
discuss and give him the consent
to proceed, says the boards
report.
Although Dr Akatu was aware
that the patient had eaten, he
decided that surgery was neces-
sary if the unborn child was to
be saved.
The operation began at 10pm
and the baby was extracted with
a cord around the neck.
During the middle of the opera-
tion, there was a power blackout
and the generators also failed.
They then opted to use a charge-
able portable lamp. The patient
lost 1.2 litres of blood.
He then realised that the patient
had breathing problems and they
tried to resuscitate her without suc-
cess, says the boards report.

Dr Sagwa was ordered to pay
Sh100,000 while the hospital was ned
Sh350,000 within 30 days from the date
of the ruling for the costs of the commit-
tees sittings.
The board dismissed a case filed
against Prof Karanja, saying it had es-
tablished that Mrs Letangule was not a
private patient of the consultant but of
the hospital.
At the same time, the committee or-
dered Family Care Medical Centre and
Maternity Home to initiate dialogue with
the victims next of kin on compensation
and report to the board chairman within
90 days.
The hospital should also furnish the
board chairman with a list of practitioners
and sta at all its facilities, their quali-
cations and registration status within 14
days, the committee ordered.
The hospital was also ordered to set
up a medical advisory committee (MAC)
within 14 days and conrm this in writing
with the board chairman.
The MAC should hold monthly
meetings and furnish quarterly reports
to the board chairman and the Nairobi
County Executive for Health for the next
12 months.
The committee also directed the hospi-
tal to put in place internal guidelines for
clinical record keeping within 30 days.
In the ruling, dated June 24, 2014, the
committee also ordered the hospital to
provide evidence of a valid professional
indemnity cover for the institution, doc-
tors and sta within 14 days.
A comprehensive inspection by the
board of the facility on Maai Mahiu Road
in Nairobi West was also ordered.
Yesterday, Mr Letangule told the Na-
tion he was satised with the ruling by
the Medical Practitioners and Dentists
Board.
Serve as example
Although nothing can bring back my
dear Esther, the ruling should serve as
a wake-up call and should be circulated
to hospitals to save lives, especially of
mothers who wish to deliver at these
institutions.
My loss should serve as an example
which should behove doctors and institu-
tions to be careful in the way they handle
patients to spare mothers and fathers the
agony I went through, he said.
My wifes case was a classical one
of negligence which caused me a lot of
trauma due to negligence, a distraught
Mr Letangule said.
He, however, said despite the ruling
that Family Care Medical Centre and Ma-
ternity Home should contact the family
with a view to compensation and report
on progress to Prof Magoha within 90
days from the ruling, this has not hap-
pened. I am planning to le another
case in the High Court to ensure this
is implemented and justice is done, Mr
Letangule added.

T
hough Kenyas arid
north harbours
immense wealth oil,
gas, livestock and massive
water aquifers the majority
of households wallow in
deep poverty. The human
development index is the
lowest in the country.
The arid areas are
geographically in Kenya,
but their social-economics
belongs to neighbouring
countries.
The Lomidat slaughter
house at Lokichoggio in
Turkana epitomises the
development puzzle in
many marginalised areas.
The critical conditions
for a business start-up
are present: machines,
manpower, a market and
even a cooperative society
to source for animals. The
political leaders support the
project, and so there is no
political mischief.
Yet, paradoxically, the
local community will not
sell animals to the abattoir,
so the factory is crippled.
Analyses on under-
development in the arid
area fail to capture all
the dimensions of the
problem. The recipes
given by economists
are standard: improve
infrastructure, which should
include abattoirs, roads,
refrigeration, and so on, and
voila, poor communities
will automatically be hinged
onto modern markets.
But as the Lomidat
project demonstrates, when
formulating policies for
improving livelihoods in
marginalised areas, it is
important to understand
the connection between
the local cultural practices,
poverty and economic
development, before
constructing suitable
intervention strategies.
The underlying question
why pastoralists remain
poor despite their immense
wealth in livestock and
other resources has not
been properly discussed.
Yet the question is
important because, even
before the oil discovery, the
counties of Turkana and
Marsabit held 42 per cent
of Kenyas livestock wealth
worth billions of shillings.
Agriculture, not oil,
should be the launch-pad
for sustainable development
in these areas. One just
needs to visit the newly-
created green elds in dry
areas to appreciate what
well thought-out resource
management in agriculture
using inexpensive
technology can achieve.
This becomes even more
important because the great
oil wealth lying underneath
in the north at least in
legal stricture belongs to
all Kenyans. Concretely,
the prots accrued from it
will belong to the extracting
companies and their local
mandarins. Any contest over
that may lead to serious
conict, as has happened
elsewhere in Africa, leaving
the communities worse o
than before.
The communities near the
oil wells will receive spill-
overs from oil companies
or trickle-down benets
from the government. Of
course, the communities
will never own the oil wells,
which in any case will dry
up after some time, leaving
the people back to square
one. It makes more sense
to help them actualise the
wealth they really own and
can control. And that is
agriculture.
But we have to grapple
with the intricate cultural
barriers that impede the
pastoralists participation
in modern markets.
Importantly, pastoralists
hold livestock above all
for their cultural value and
food. The owners may sell
one or two animals, but
that is only for buying basic
household items.
Cultural attachment to
livestock is so great that
many hold on to their
animals until drought wipes
them out. The result is the
routine media images of
dead, dying or emaciated
animals.
Unless stakeholders look
for ways of changing this
attitude without abusing the
cultural sensibilities of the
people, marginalised areas
will remain trapped in a
time-warp.
To move with the rest of
Kenya toward the realisation
of Vision 2030, there
are several ways to help
pastoralists along.
First, we have to stop
judging the communities
by monetary parameters
that dominate the modern
economy. The centre-
periphery divide between
northern Kenya and Nairobi
is deep and cant be closed
by laying down infrastructure
alone. It requires a multi-
faceted approach.
Second, any strategy to
rope in the communities to
the modern markets must
not be forced. For too long,
the Maasai were the epitome
of conservativeness. Today,
many of them are very
active in the modern market
economies.
The good thing with
giving people time to adapt
to other modes of existence
is that they use their local
sense to infuse their
positive cultural aspects into
the new ways.

Punish negligent doctors
A
ny profession worth its salt ensures that all
its practitioners adhere to ethical conduct in
the discharge of their duties. Those who out
regulations and engage in practices that besmirch
the image of the profession must be identied,
weeded out and punished to ensure only those who
adhere to the prescribed standards operate.
The Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board
does a sterling job to ensure its members live up to
the expected professional etiquette and discharge
their duties eciently and honourably.
Complaints of professional conduct are
thoroughly investigated and those found to have
erred, thus endangering the lives of patients or
causing deaths through negligence, are punished.
According to the board, some 740 cases against
doctors and hospitals accused of negligence have
been heard. The complainants against individuals
and institutions implicated want justice done.
Those who have lost their loved ones through the
carelessness of some health practitioners will nd
solace in learning that the culprits have, at least,
been held to account.
But most importantly, this should be a wake-up
call to doctors and other health workers to perform
their duties according to their professional calling.

Release school cash or
face the consequences
T
he public school system is facing yet
another crisis with the inordinate delay in
the release of government subventions.
Schools are threatening to close the second
term early if funds badly needed to meet running
expenses are not immediately remitted.
The second term of the year has a few weeks to
run before the August holiday, but schools have
not received their funds and are threatening to
send students home by the end of today.
Matters could come to a crunch when the
Primary Schools Head Teachers Association
meets today to decide on the next course of
action.
If they decide to close the schools, they surely
cannot be blamed because the institutions cannot
run without funds.
Explanations from the Cabinet Secretary for
Education that the delays are caused by a laggard
bureaucracy at the Treasury are not helpful when
he is unable to give any clear information on when
the funds might be available.
Instead of just pleading for patience, he should
take up the issue with his Treasury counterpart
so that the headteachers can be given concrete
reassurances before they take precipitate action.
It is germane to point out here that the schools
are not demanding money that had not been
provided for. Primary school funding was catered
for in the budget.
If it is merely a lazy bureaucracy at the Treasury
holding up the funds, stern action should be taken
against those responsible.
It may be, however, that the delay in the release
of funds is a result of a cash crunch aecting the
government as a whole. If, so, then the Treasury
should come clean on its inability to meet its
obligations.

REFOULEMENT | Bill Frelick
T
he judge who told the
Kenya Government a
year ago that it couldnt
force urban refugees into
remote and over-crowded
refugee camps now says its
ne to do just that. How could
that be?
In July 2013, the High
Court ruled unconstitutional a
government directive ordering
all refugees in Nairobi and
other cities to move into the
Dadaab and Kakuma camps
near the countrys northern
borders with Somalia and
Sudan.
High Court judge David
S. Majanja described the
governments order as a
violation of the refugees
freedom of movement and
right to dignity.
But in March, the
government dusted o and
basically re-issued the same
directive. And on June 30,
Justice Majanja approved the
new directive, expressing no
concern that it could violate
these same fundamental rights
and freedoms.
It is dicult to see how
the pertinent facts or the
questions of law were any
dierent the second time
round.
In both cases, the judge
was asked whether the
governments directive forcing
refugees to move from cities to
camps violated their rights as
refugees and as human beings.
One dierence, however, is
who brought the case. The July
2013 case, Kituo Cha Sheria v
Attorney-General, was brought
by a non-governmental partner
of the UN High Commisioner
for Refugees, which also
submitted an amicus brief in
support of the refugees.
A group of Somali refugee
businessmen in Nairobi
brought this years case,
Samow Mumim Mohamed &
9 Others v Cabinet Secretary.
Justice Majanja said they
did not demonstrate with
precision how the directive
violated their fundamental
rights and freedoms as
individuals.
In the July 2013 case, Justice
Majanja carefully considered
whether implementation of the
encampment directive might
lead to a situation that would
force refugees back to the
countries from which they ed
refoulement.
He concluded that the
implementation of the policy
would, indeed, violate the
principle of non-refoulement,
which he called a peremptory
norm of international law
that the Kenya Government is
obligated to respect.
In June, he did not even
consider the threat to the
principle of non-refoulement.
Last year, he discussed in
detail the right of freedom of
movement in international and
domestic law.
For the government to
restrict a refugees freedom of
movement on national security
grounds, he said, it would
have to show that a specic
persons presence or activity
in the urban area is causing
danger to the country and that
his or her encampment would
alleviate the menace.
He concluded that there is
nothing to justify the use of
security operation to violate
the rights of urban-based
refugees, and ruled that the
governments encampment
directive violates the freedom
of movement of refugees.
In the new case, Mr Majanja
reduced freedom of movement
to a question of a regulatory
technicality: whether the
government had properly
designated certain areas as
refugee camps. And on that
point, he simply deferred to
the government.
During the 2013 ruling,
Justice Majanja held that
the inherent dignity of all
people was a core value of
the Constitution, and ruled
that the right to dignity of
refugees is violated by the
directive.
During this years decision,
he made no reference
to dignity as a right nor
considered whether refugees
rights were being violated.
There is no reason to believe
that refugees would be any less
threatened by being ordered
into the camps today than they
were in June 2014.
There has been no
improvement in conditions
in the Kakuma and Dadaab
camps, and the refugees
human rights, refugee rights,
and constitutional rights have
not changed an iota in one
year.
What changed was this:
instead of actively seeking
to uphold refugee rights
through its legal partners,
UNHCR chose not to bring
a case. The inaction of the
UN agency mandated to
defend refugees and the
failure of the High Court to
uphold the same rights it had
extolled a year previously,
are incomprehensible.
The potential real life
consequences for tens of
thousands of refugees are
nothing short of tragic.

Lingala tunes: Things not always
so entertaining at the camp
I
n the 1980s and early 1990s, most
newspaper headlines used to carry
news about His Excellency, the
President . News bulletins on radio and
TV started with the same intro, Mtukufu
Rais . We were so sick and tired of
this, among other things, that we sought
political pluralism to liberate ourselves
from the shackles of hero-worship.
With political pluralism, we not
only extricated ourselves from this
one-showmanship but got a free and
independent media and media pluralism.
We now have numerous media outlets
that broadcast as they wish, sometimes
making the line between public decorum
and public order really stretched.
Apparently, the same society that
pursued liberation from government
oppression seems to have replaced that
with opposition oppression.
Almost all news headlines most front-
page news and all main news bulletins
are headlined with opposition news. It is
either opposition politician Raila Odinga
this, or opposition party Cord that. When
we have other headlines, they only depict
government ineptitude and corruption.
While we have many challenges for
which we demand and expect those in
authority to take charge of, we seem
to also assume that everything the
opposition says and does is sacrosanct.
We do not demand the same level of
responsibility from those in authority
outside government. They can say what
they wish and do anything they want
even if it borders on breaching the peace,
because it is the governments mandate to
maintain law and order.
In many quarters, it is a crime to
criticise Mr Odinga. On social media, the
mere mention of the name invites tomes
of abuse, vitriol and ridicule. You only
escape with your life because you are not
within physical reach.
Those who try to look at government
positively are described as see-no-evil,
hear-no-evil, speak-no-evil government
sympathisers, and at worst chauvinistic
and parochial tribal sycophants.
A popular riddle among the many we
have become accustomed to says Nyani
haoni kundule. One monkey will laugh
at the ugly behind of another without
noticing that its own behind is equally
ugly. Opposition supporters do not see
their own see-no-evil, hear-no-evil,
speak-no-evil opposition sympathies and
parochial tribal sycophancy.
It is not the work of citizens to cheer
on an under-performing government, but
they cannot be whipped into making the
state ungovernable and then complain as
the government struggles to govern.
It may be even more prudent to
alternate the government and the
opposition on our news. If the headline
carries opposition news, the next story
should carry government news, and the
following day vice versa.
If the headline is on a dierent topic
and the second story carries government
news, another on the next column should
carry opposition news. There is a need to
balance what information is put out there.
The media should also go one better.
Whenever the government or opposition
makes certain claims, the media should go
into the background to put the claims in
context.
This would help the public form
opinions about what is claimed, those
who make the claims, and the truth.

TOO MANY ACCIDENTS. Fatal accidents are

and another critically injured. Macharia has written

of a footbridge, but has not heard a word from

manager, a Mr Riba, so the matter can be amicably
resolved. The contact is customercare@tuskys.com.
REQUIREMENTS RIDICULOUS. The recruitment
into the Kenya Police Service, Ruth Gituma says, has
once again brought to the fore ridiculous requirements
for the candidates which should by now have been
modied or discarded. For instance, why should one
be disqualied because of the colour of ones teeth?
How will the job of handling a gun be aected by
coloured teeth? We must start matching brains with
the job because we need policemen more than before
and physical attributes alone are not enough.

P
resident Robert Mugabe is
at it again. Like in 2000
when 4,000 white farmers
were displaced, he is threatening to
chase away all white farmers from
Zimbabwe (Nation, July 4).
Mugabe seemingly believes that
by doing so, he will satisfy the ever-
increasing demands of war veter-
ans and hence buy their loyalty.
His wordsthat he has a list of
35 farmers from Mashonaland be-
tray him; he is under pressure.
In 2000, hordes of Africans
armed to the teeth invaded white-
owned farms, setting homes and
stores on re, after chasing away
the families, then went ahead to
sub-divide the huge tracts of land
among themselves, making the
farms commercially less viable.
Africans agree that some histori-
cal injustices, especially concerning
land, should be addressed. Land
was at the heart of most liberation
wars. But the style President Mu-
gabe has adopted is wrong.
Know no other home
Most white farmers in Zimbabwe
share so many things in common
with the Afrikaans of South Africa.
They know no other home, except
Africa. Most of them are descend-
ants of a group that docked at the
cape way back in 1652, led by Jan
Van Ribbeck. They are where they
are because their forefathers moved
into the interior during the great
trek. I belief the British who owned
land in Zimbabwe are no longer
there after the 2000 asco. Those
who are still there know Zimbabwe
is their only home.
Mugabe argues that the whites
can own companies and apart-
ments in the towns and cities and
not the soil. Is this not recognition
that they are there by right.
In South Africa and Kenya, the
same problems have been there
since independence. The ghost of
the white highlands and Cost re-
gion haunts Kenya to-date.
Freedom ghters
We have had instances of xeno-
phobia and the feeling of inad-
equacy in South Africa. However,
the leaders of Kenya and South
Africa are not the re-spitting free-
dom ghters of the 1950s.
Land reforms in Zimbabwes
agriculture-based economy saw the
sector take a serious knock, leading
to todays severe food shortages.
The same happens in Kenya for
a dierent reason: huge tracts of
land are bought by rms that sub-
divide them into small plots. This
approach to quench Africans thirst
for land has seen food output fall.
If Mugabe, and any other African
leader, wants to enforce radical
land reforms, it should be insisted
that the African farmers run these
farms the way companies are man-
aged.
Let them buy shares rather than
have the land sub-divided into tiny
plots that are not viable.

Chaotic services at the registrar of motor vehicles annoying
I have often had to register and transfer motor
vehicles to my name. On three occasions, I have had
my logbooks posted to the wrong address. After long
waits, I end up at the motor vehicle registration de-
partment formerly at Nyayo House and now at the
Times Tower.
The last time this happened, I was given a chit and
requested to check for the document at City Square
post oce next to Kenya Railways. The parcels oce
took their sweet time and later gave me a chit to go
the GPO. I spent close to two hours waiting only to
be served with another chit to take back to the KRA
oces. It was now past 4.30pm and there was no way
I was going to make it back to Times Tower. I sent
someone to pick the document a day later.
In one of the previous times, I remember being
asked by the ocers in the returned documents sec-
tion at Nyayo House to assist them locate the docu-
ment from poorly maintained cartons. I met other
Kenyans similarly suering due to their undelivered
documents. I wonder how so many documents can be
posted to wrong addresses, yet the owners, just like
myself, have always indicated the correct addresses.
These wrong postings seem to be by design. The
registrar of motor vehicles should ensure Kenyans
get proper services and for which they pay anyway. In
this digital era, such chaotic services are annoying.

October and November is tradi-
tionally celebration time in tea grow-
ing areas when farmers receive their
bonuses either in cash, through Sac-
cos or bank accounts.
Any visitor during this period can
sense condence in the air as new
investments come up and farmers
spend. Even twilight women mi-
grate to towns in tea areas to cash in
on the good fortune.
This year, however, I would cau-
tion fellow farmers against expecting
too to avoid disappointment. Global
tea prices were at an all-time low for
most of the 2013/2014 nancial year
due to global glut.
Some areas had so much leaf,
farmers spent nights at buying cen-
tres waiting for their tea to be un-
packed and weighed.
Take bank loans
Low prices aside, many farm-
ers often take bank loans without
a sound business plan. Once the
money is spent, reality dawns that
they have to pay the loan using their
bonus. It is painful to see farmers
earn very little or nothing and lose
their collateral to banks.
I also urge farmers to diversify to
reduce dependence on tea. Ventures
such as poultry, pig farming, bee-
keeping and even vegetables can
shield us when tea earnings decline.
The government must also com-
mit to value addition and marketing.
Tea is a big foreign exchange earner,
and the government must put its
money where its mouth is.
ONESMUS MATONDA, Kisii
Tea farmers ought to
explore new ventures
REPENT, KENYANS: I agree with
what Emma Kabiru wrote (Nation,
July 17). Kenya is like a drug-resist-
ant disease that even the most reli-
able medicine cant cure. That our
police ocers can resign from their
jobs, saying, criminals in Lamu and
other hotspots have more advanced
weapons is a clear indication of
nasty things ahead. How I wish
Kenya could go through a rebirth!
Just the other day, such bloodbaths
were unheard of. Now village massa-
cres dont even make it to page one
of our newspapers. Let us repent.
KIMTAI CHERONGIS, Kitale
BROWN TEETH: Before we froth
at the mouth castigating the Army
for discrimination, let us understand
uorosis. Too much uoride in
drinking water is deposited rst in
the teeth and on chronic exposure,
in the skeletal structure. It causes
structural damage to the bones, the
ligaments and the muscles. Military
work calls for physical tness to sur-
vive under immense physical stress.
People with uorosis do not t the
bill. It will be a day to regret should
they, even if cooks, have nobody to
depend on but sheer physical tness.
LUCY ANN, Mombasa
IMMORAL SEASON: Tourists are
ocking Narok on their way to Maa-
sai Mara to witness the Eighth Won-
der wildebeest migration starting
Sunday. This will improve tourism,
which, in turn, means economic
growth. Business is expected to
boom and prices will shoot up. Un-
fortunately, that includes the price
of the esh, and prostitutes are also
ocking to sell their merchandise
in exchange for the mzungus cash.
My advice, especially to university
students is, lets uphold our morals;
the mzungu comes and goes.
SOPHIA NKATHA, Narok
GRAFT TRAIN: The entire police
national recruitment has been cast
under a dark shadow especially after
claims by Nandi Hills MP Alfred
Keter that it was riddled with cor-
ruption in various parts of the coun-
try, exhibited discrimination against
Muslim youths on imsy medical
grounds, and that numbers were not
fairly distributed to constituencies
based on their population. Serving
in the police ought to be an act of
sacrice to ones country. To put
yourself on the line should be more
than enough, so why would one wish
to bribe? Answer: Kenyans are at-
tracted to police by its graft!

Transition agency puts looters
of council billions on notice
The Transition Authority
(TA) has warned individuals
who stole property that
belonged to the defunct local
authorities to surrender
them or face legal action.

has started conducting

Miraa farmers plan suit
as prices sharply decline
BY LUCAS BARASA
@ekatoroto
lbarassa@ke.nationmedia.com
T
he price of miraa (khat) has
sharply dropped since the
stimulant was banned in the
United Kingdom.
The decline comes as some farmers
plan to move to the European Court
of Justice next week to challenge the
prohibition.
Kenya Miraa Farmers and Traders
Association chairman Dave Muthuri
told the Nation that lawyer Gitobu
Imanyara returned to the country
yesterday after a visit to the UK to
prepare the case.
Progress made
Lawyer Imanyara has just returned
from London where he met other law-
yers, including those involved in the
Mau Mau case, to take up our issue
pro bono. We will together with MP
Mithika Linturi, meet Mr Imanyara so
he can brief us on the progress made,
Mr Muthuri said by telephone.
He added: The case will be lled
any time from next week. We want
the UK to lift the ban as our rights
have been violated.
Mr Muthuri said the prices of the
best quality miraa, popularly known as
giza, and which used to be exported to
the UK, had dropped from Sh25,000
and Sh30,000 per bundle to between
Sh6,000 and Sh7,000.
Our people are suering. They are
incurring huge losses, Mr Muthuri
said.
Farmers who used to receive $500
dollars after exporting a sack of the
leaves are now only getting as little
as $200.
The chairman said the ban would
adversely affect not only Merus
economy, but also the countrys.
Until last month, the UK was the
biggest export market.
Kenya used to export about 20
tonnes of miraa weekly valued at
Sh1.4 billion.
The local market consumes more
than 60 tonnes weekly.
The biggest beneciaries of the ban,
however, appear to be consumers in
Mogadishu, where exporters have
ooded the market with khat.
Mr Muthuri said Mogadishu was
now the main importer of khat fol-
lowing the UK ban last month.
In Somalia, where farmers used
to earn about Sh50,000 for a bag of
miraa, they get as little as Sh20,000
due to oversupply.
African markets
Mr Muthuri said a two-kilogramme
pack of miraa, which used to fetch
$45 in Mogadishu, was now being
sold at $10.
However, prices in the local market
have not changed drastically due to
the holy month of Ramadhan.
The miraa sold in the country is,
however, not of the same grade as the
one for export.
In 2012, the Netherlands, which
was the biggest foreign market for
miraa, banned its sale, prompting an
outcry from Kenyan traders.
The traders have started scouting
for new markets, eorts that have led
to forays into Malawi and Mozambique
although the volumes sold in these
countries are too little.
Eect of UK ban
begins to be felt
across the country as
Meru leaders vow to
challenge decision
Background
Country advised
against the move
Khat, which users say makes
them feel more alert, happy and
talkative when chewed, was
banned as a class C drug despite
word from the UK Governments
ocial advisers that it should not
be classied.
According to the BBC, then
Home Secretary Theresa May said
despite the recommendation of
the Advisory Council on Misuse of
Drugs (ACMD) not to ban khat, the
agency had acknowledged that
there was an absence of robust
evidence in a number of areas.
Miraa farmers at
Laare in Igembe
North package
the produce for
sale in the local
market. Miraa
consumers in So-
malia are enjoy-
ing low prices.

County defends ocers hiring,
says it was done procedurally
The county government has defended itself over the
hiring of its Trade and Industry executive. County
secretary Joseph Motari said the procedure followed
in the recruitment of Samuel Gitau was proper
and legal. He said the county government and the
County Assembly of Nakuru did not collude with
Mr Gitau to get him employed. Mr Gitau has since
stepped aside to pave way for investigations into
claims that he was not academically qualied to
hold the post. Mr Motaris remarks are contained
in an adavit sworn in response to a case led by a
transparency and accountability lobby group which
wants the Mr Gitau to return all the money and
benets he earned during his short tenure. The case
will be heard on October 6.

Kanu property set to go under

not settled. The advertisement by Solai Auctioneers
shows that Kenya Power sued the former ruling
party in 2004 and named its then secretary-general
Julius Sunkuli, treasurer Mohamed Yusuf Haji and
Dr Bonaya Godana, who was deputy secretary-
general, as respondents. The auctioneers were

M
andera Governor Ali
Roba is optimistic his
government is on the
right path to self-reliance and
regional competitiveness.
He said the county govern-
ment hopes to achieve this in
its ve-year strategic plan that
ends in 2017.
Our vision is clear. We are
setting up an abattoir and the
design for a fruit processing
factory is complete. Plans for
the construction of an inter-
national airport and regional
livestock market are in the pipe-
line, Mr Doba said.
Construction of the airport
starts in September.
The governor, who was a
pilot before joining elective
politics, says his government
has identied projects that will
generate employment, reduce
food and water insecurity.
He also aims to profession-
alise the county public service
and kick-start the ailing health
sector.
Mr Roba describes Mandera
as a county with unlimited
opportunities and endless pos-
sibilities.
The county boss said key
personnel and administrators
have been recruited.
Delivery of services is our
top priority, Mr Roba said.
Among the governors
achievements so far include, an
increase in revenue collection
by 300 per cent from Sh35 mil-
lion to the current Sh120 million.
The county government has
also operationalised 57 hos-
pitals, it has constructed 677
kilometres of all weather mur-
ram road and dug 20 boreholes
and ve water pans. Twelve
water pans have also been re-
habilitated.
Mr Robas administration is
constructing the county head-
quarters, the county assembly
and a guest house for investors.
A one-stop business centre
has also been established.
In an interview with the Na-
tion yesterday, Mr Roba said a
county radio station has been
set up. It will be operational in
the one and half months.
Sub-county administra-
tive oces have been built
in the northern Kenya while
the Mandera County referral
hospital has been refurbished.
The county government has
recruited 360 more medical
personnel.
The ground breaking for the
24 kilometre tarmac road is set
for August 7.
This will be the rst tarmac
tarmac road in Mandera, Mr
Roba said.

development. While we are pleased with some of the amendments, there is still concern that some of the
proposed amendments are stifing and do not promote an enabling environment for the CSO sector.
We therefore passed the following resolutions:
A: Models for Regulation
1. That we call for a balanced board (with equal representation from both government and civil society
appointees) empowered to elect its chairperson and appointing a CEO through a transparent and
competitive process in line with recommendations of the report of the Presidential Task Force
on Parastatal Reforms 2013 (also known as the Abdikadir Taskforce Report adopted by the
government. The report has critical recommendations on improving corporate governance in state
bodies by ensuring the President and Cabinet Secretary play no direct role in the appointment of
the board members of any state corporation. This is meant to shield the governing boards from
political patronage and cronyism.
B: Transition from NGO to PBO
1. We call for the development of a framework that enables smooth but complete transition from the
NGO Council regime to the new National Federation of PBOs. We wish to see a quick end to the
chronic wrangling that has plagued NGO Council while ensuring such leadership baggage is not
transferred to the new Federation of PBOs through the envisaged transition.
2. The transition framework to comprehensively address the issues of registration and accountability
standards of NGOs as they transit to PBOs.
3. The PBO Federation structure to be developed within the context of devolution, taking into account
the imperative to include representation from the counties to the National Federation of PBOs
C: Value- Driven Leadership and Principles of PBOs
1. We commit to establish and develop procedures and mechanisms within the PBO Federation and
Forums of PBOs, and to establish a code of ethics that will enhance transparency and accountability
in the sector. The procedures shall include a system of rewards and sanctions as a way of enhancing
accountability and commit to expand our accountability beyond the donors to include accountability
to the Government, the Kenyan people that we serve and to ourselves
2. We commit to undertake a process of re-orientation for the PBO Leaders and those working in the
sector, including those who will join the sector in order to drive a transformative value- driven PBO
Sector
3. We urge the Government to provide adequate fnancing to the PBO Authority so that the Authority
can execute its mandate in holding PBOs accountable at the national and county levels.
D. Our position on the Proposed Amendments to the PBO Act
1. We support the PBO Act for it gives the framework for enhancing good governance of the civil
society, fostering effectiveness and sustainability of our work and also streamlining the interaction
and partnerships between the State and the Civil Society among other actors.
2. We undertake to support amendments that will strengthen self-regulation of the sector and the
independence and effectiveness of the PBO Tribunal, PBO Authority and the Federation.
3. We call upon the Legislature and the Executive to adopt our amendments which aim to ensure
proportionate representation of (at least 2/3 of membership) and the associated accountability
in the composition and operations of the Board of PBO Regulatory Authority and the PBO
Federation.
4. We call for expeditious and consultative process of adoption and implementation of the amended
PBO Act and the draft rules and regulations that harmonize the two versions that have been
developed by the NGO Board and the CSO Reference Group
5. Pursuant to Article 3 (1) of the Constitution of Kenya, Section 2(1) of the PBO Act and the PBO
Voluntary Service Charter for Citizens, we commit to be actively involved in the governance
and development processes at both county and national levels. We call upon the national and
county governments to reciprocate this gesture and provide the necessary support and enabling
environment.
We call on Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in the country and the millions of Kenyans who appreciate the
services provided by CSOs such as health, education, agricultural and livestock services, civic education, anti-
corruption initiatives, legal aid, human rights protection or any other service or support to reach out to their
Members of the National Assembly and encourage them to vote in favour of the proposed Miscellaneous
Amendment Bill 2014 and our proposals on the same.
It is our well-considered view and position that the quest for an enabling environment for civil societies in
Kenya will be best served if the well-intentioned proposals on the amendments as articulated heretofore are
fully taken into account.

Naked bodies of three young
men dumped in rice elds
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Three bodies of young men
were found yesterday in farms of
the countys rice-growing Mwea
region.
Farmers on their way to deliver
milk at Kimbimbi and Ngurubani
townships found the naked bodies at
Kandongu and Nyangati villages.
The farmers alerted chiefs who re-
ported to Wanguru Police Station.
The villagers suspected that the
men were rst stripped, strangled
and their heads crushed with rocks.
The teeth of one of the victims had
been knocked out and his face dis-
gured.
As news of the killings spread,
hundreds of villagers abandoned
their work and went to the scenes
to view the bodies.
Two of the bodies were in a rice
eld at Kandongu.
Find the killers
We were terried and ran away.
Later, we informed our chief, Im-
maculate Wanjiru, who called the
police, said one of those who found
the bodies.
Area police chief Mohammed
Huka said the young men could
have been killed elsewhere as their
clothes could not be traced.
The governor, Mr Joseph Ndathi,
was shocked by the killings and
urged the police to nd the kill-
ers.

Business halted as budget
chief refuses to wire cash
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT

Business has been grounded at the
county government after the refusal
by the controller of budget to approve
its 2014/2015 budget.
The controller of budget recom-
mended that the countys estimates
be revised before money was released,
the acting nance executive member,
Mrs Zilpah Kageha, said yesterday.
This comes as chief nance of-
cer Tom Akolo, is ghting to clear
his name with the Public Accounts
Committee following claims of abuse
of oce.
Mr Akolo is also accused of usurp-
ing the responsibilities of accountants
by making payments contrary to the
law.
The law says any authorised pay-
ments should be made by accountants
and not chief ocers.
Mrs Kageha feared that the stale-
mate could continue if the assembly
decided to take disciplinary action
against the chief nance ocer.
The Nation established that the
county could not make any payments
as the Sh591 million still in its coers
cannot be withdrawn at the beginning
of the nancial year until the control-
ler of budget gave the nod.
Vihiga had prepared a Sh4.5 billion
budget but the national government
allocated it Sh3.3 billion.
The assembly proposed to set aside
Sh750 million to be divided equally
among the 25 wards in the county as
ward development fund.

Some county assembly members
yesterday accused their
colleagues of using tenders to
blackmail the governor. The
practice has tainted the integrity
of the Assembly and undermined
its oversight role, they said.
Leader of Majority Samuel
Ongow told the assembly that
some members were lobbying
for tenders. It is true that some
of us are compromised and
have now become contractors.
Members are now hoodwinking
the House and selling contracts
at the expense of the public,
added minority leader Eddy

Charles Igiha told the Nation by

the woman, Nagwatik Kapelo, 35
was admitted to Lodwar District
Hospital with gunshot wounds.
Mr Simale said 797 animals
were stolen. He suspected that
the animals were driven towards

Governor defends
deputy over loyalty
Governor James Ongwae
yesterday came to the defence
of his deputy, Mr Joash Maangi,
following calls for his removal
over his political loyalty and
other issues. Mr Ongwae (above)
rubbished the impeachment calls,
saying the allegations against
his deputy were baseless and not
sucient to warrant his removal.
Some Borabu/Bomachoge sub-
county residents have petitioned
the governors oce, accusing Mr
Maangi of being a sympathiser
of the Jubilee Government. The
fact that the deputy governor is
working with the government
is not sucient grounds for his
impeachment. I have hosted the
President and his Deputy in my
county several times. This shows
my dedication in collaborating
with the National Government,
Mr Ongwae said.

Naivas boss says
brother has no
stake in business
BY WANJIRU

@wanjirumachari1
lwmacharia@ke.nationmedia

A
di rector of the
Naivas supermar-
kets yesterday
told the High Court in
Nakuru that a brother
who seeking a share of
the multi-million-shilling
business was a stranger to
the business.
Naivas was not a family
enterprise as only four of
the nine siblings owned
shares in the business, Mr
Simon Gachwe Mukuha
told Mr Justice Anyara
Emukule.
He has never been and
will never be a shareholder
of Naivas Supermarkets
Limited, Mr Gachwe said
of his brother, Mr Newton
Kagira Mukuha, who is
claiming a share in the
chain of supermarkets.
Mr Kagira had moved
to court seeking orders
barring his two younger
brothers from selling part
of the company shares to
a South African chain of
supermarkets.
He claims that Mr
Gachwe and his other
brother, Mr David Kimani,
had excluded him from
owning shares at Naivas yet
he contributed Sh20,000
as seed capital for the su-
permarket chain in 1990
when it began as Rongai
Self-Service Stores.
Yesterday, Mr Gachwe,
who doubles up as Naivas
director, said he was sur-
prised to hear his brother
refer to the investment as
a family property.
He said his elder brother
was creating stories and
misleading the court while
all he did was cause trouble
and squander all chances
for a good life.
He narrated to the court
how his uncle, the founder
of Tuskys Supermarkets
gave him and his brother
(Kimani) the business
- RSS - which he had ear-
lier owned.
The business grew to a
major supermarket and we
opened another branch in
Elburgon which prompted
us to invite Kagira and
one of our sisters into the
venture.
Causing trouble
Mr Gachwe said that
he and his three siblings
decided to leave the shop
to Kagira after he (Kagira)
started causing trouble
and stealing money from
the business.
He said they decided to
do away with the Rongai
trade name and started
Naivasha Self-Service
Stores Limited with the
initial shareholders being
himself and Mr Kimani al-
though they surrendered
some shares to two sisters
and their father.
We opened branches in
many parts of the country
and did away with the long
title reducing it to Naivas
Supermarkets Limited.
The hearing continues.

Machakos >
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua
yesterday defended himself against
graft allegations.
He said the procurement of 16 ve-
hicles by the county was a clean deal
that saved the taxpayer a substantial
amount of money.
The county boss said that as a
leader who gives priority to the needs
of his people, he was susceptible to
opposition from his rivals.
I would be very worried if there
was nobody attacking me because that
could mean I was not working. Those
who are doing nothing have nobody
to attack them. But that will not deter
me from doing what is required to
emancipate my people from hunger
and disease, Dr Mutua said.
He was speaking at the 4th Annual
International Research Conference at
Kabarak University in Nakuru.
He said his government would
make history by becoming the rst
county to contain malaria, which is
the top killer disease in the sub-Sa-
haran Africa.
The ongoing political bickering, he
added, would only motivate him to
work even harder.
The governor said the procurement
of the vehicles was above board. Dr
Mutua said he did it out of discre-
tion with the aim of saving the county
Sh90 million.
Dying by the roadside
I received Sh120 million to buy
new vehicles for the Cabinet. But I
thought it unwise to go for luxuri-
ous ones when expectant mothers
and children are dying by the roadside
while going to hospital, he said.
I bought second-hand cars worth
Sh30 million and channelled the rest
of the money towards health care.
For some people to tun to the Eth-
ics and Anti-Corruption Commission
to report that I have outed the pro-
curement laws is total nonsense, Dr
Mutua said.
The governor said that whereas he
did the right thing to protect public
resources, some people are after
my neck and yet when others steal,
nobody cares.
Although the governor had declined
to appear before the ethics team and
went to court to block the commis-
sion from interrogating him, he has
nally agreed and will appear before
it on July 25.
Mutua denies corruption claims and vows to soldier on
Herders get
more time
for grazing
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Herders have been given more
time to continue grazing at a private
ranch until a case they have led
is heard.
The Nyeri High Court yester-
day maintained that their animals
should remain at the Solio Conserv-
ancy ranch in Nyeri County.
In a certicate of urgency, Mr
Justice Anthony Ombwayo had
earlier this month ordered the
herders to continue grazing the
cattle at the Rongai River, which
is located within the Solio ranch,
pending the hearing and determina-
tion of the case.
The case, which was supposed
to be heard yesterday, was however
postponed to September 18 after
Mr Nderi Kiingati, the lawyer rep-
resenting Solio ranch conservancy,
said he was not ready to proceed.
Rangers wrath
Mr Kiingati said that he had been
appointed by the respondent yester-
day morning and therefore needed
more time to go through the le.
He told the court that he will have
led the submissions and replied
accordingly within a period of 21
days adding that he will be at that
time prepared to proceed with the
case hearing.
Through their lawyer Nganga
Munene, the nine herders allege
that their cattle are starving and
some succumbing to death due to
drought in Kieni, Nyeri County.
They claim the river is the only
source of water they have. KWS
rangers had kicked them out.

Obado bounces back as Supreme

AND ELISHA OTIENO
T
he Supreme Court has re-
instated Mr Zachary Okoth
Obado as the governor of
Migori County.
A seven-judge bench unanimously
ruled that in nullifying Mr Obados
election, the Court of Appeal ex-
ceeded its mandate by considering
new evidence not presented before
the High Court.
The judges ruled that no election
can be declared a nullity based on
none-existent laws. The irregularities
mentioned, the judges said, were not
enough to warrant the cancellation.
The Court of Appeal should not
have sidestepped the supremacy of
the Constitution.
It was wrong to nullify the elec-
tion based on general provisions, the
judges ruled.
Validly elected
Judges Willy Mutunga, Kalpana
Rawal, Philip Tunoi, Jackton Ojwang,
Mohammed Ibrahim, Smokin Wan-
jala and Njoki Ndungu restored the
electoral commissions declaration
of March 4, that Mr Obado was the
validly elected.
Judge Ndungu said that the Ap-
pellate Court made a mistake in
examining votes cast in various
polling stations and in the end over-
looking the nding of the High Court
regarding the irregularities cited at
the polling stations.
Mr Justice Wanjala said the Appel-
late judges failed to take guidance of
other rulings made by the Supreme
Court by considering the rules on
standards of prove in electoral peti-
tions.
Judge Ojwang said the Court of
Appeal irregularly considered the
percentage margin of error when there
were no glaring electoral irregularities

Mr Obados supporters swarmed

bania, Migori and Kehancha towns to

The County Assemblys Committee
on Public Administration made the
recommendation following reports of
bias and violation of the law in the
hiring of sta.
The accusations are contained in a
petition led by Mr Phillip Wanyonyi
of Centre for Human Rights and a
youth leader, Mr Oscar Musungu, on
behalf of the public.
In a report submitted to the As-
sembly, the committee said the
petitioners had given proof of their

crimination and conict of interest.
The report said some members of the
board hired relatives without declaring
their interests and relations during the
interviews as required by law.
However, when the report was
tabled yesterday, Assembly Speaker
John Makali said the report was not
a substantive motion and therefore,
could not be debated and a vote
taken.
He only allowed members to make
brief observations about the report,
given the immense public interest it
has generated.
Disown the report
The report will be taken back to the
petitioner who will take appropriate
action, said Mr Makali.
But even in their brief comments,
the members demonstrated their
sharp division over the recommen-
dation to disband the board.
Some members who were in the
committee even disowned the report,
saying they never recommended that
the board be disbanded.
But another group of members
supported the report, saying it was
accurate.

Walking casually behind
the Speaker with the mace on
his shoulder, a guard at Wajir
County Assembly enters the
House as a stand-in Serjeant-
at-Arms.
This raised questions about
the legality of him taking up
the role on Wednesday.
According to sources who
did not want to be named, the
assembly has employed new
Serjeants-at-Arms who are
yet to take up oce.
This has created a vacuum
because the contracts of the
previous ones ended before
new ones were appointment.
Sources said the former
Serjeants-at-Arms were dis-
gruntled after the countys
Public Service Board oered
them a job they felt was too
inferior and withdrew their
services. This compelled the
House to look for new of-
cials.
Assign duties
Speaker Bishar Omar says
in the event of a vacuum, he
has the power to assign the du-
ties of the Serjeant-at-Arms to
any employee in the County
Assembly.
There is no harm in as-
signing the duties to another
worker, he said
Early last week, Deputy
Speaker Adan Guracho sought
the help of an Administration
Police ocer to assume the
role instead of the guard.
The assembly is no stranger
to controversy. Last year,
MCAs fought on the oor of the
House over the appointment
of the County Assembly Clerk.
The ward reps are accused of
skipping sessions and causing
lack of quorum to pass Bills.
The new Serjeants-at-Arms
are expected to report on duty
in two weeks.

VIOLENCE
Israel agrees on new truce
as lull ends. Page 31
BY TONY GAMAL-GABRIEL
CAIRO, Thursday
S
even men were sentenced
yesterday to life in prison
over sexual assaults at Cai-
ros Tahrir Square, following a
pledge by Egypts new authori-
ties to tackle an epidemic in
such crimes.
Since the 2011 uprising
which toppled president Hosni
Mubarak, cases of sexual har-
assment have soared in Egypt,
with women regularly attacked
at rallies by mobs in and around
Tahrir, the epicentre of demon-
strations.
A Cairo court also sentenced
two other defendants to 20 years
in prison over the assaults since
January 2013.
The attacks took place on
June 3 and 8 as revellers cel-
ebrated Abdel Fattah al-Sisis
presidential election victory
and inauguration, and on January
25, 2013 when Egypt marked the
second anniversary of the anti-
Mubarak revolt.
The defendants were found
guilty of kidnapping, rape, sexual
attacks, attempted murder and
torture of several women during
the rallies.
The court ordered the nine
convicts to be kept under po-
lice surveillance for ve years
after they have served their
prison terms.
Life sentences in Egypt run 25
years. Two groups of criminals
went to the square and caught
a woman and her daughter.
They took the woman to an
area near a mosque close to the
square where she was attacked
and stripped of her clothes, the
prosecution said of the June 3
assault.
They beat her and when she
tried to escape, hot water fell on
her, causing serious burn inju-
ries. Despite this, the attackers
circled her and sexually attacked
her until she was rescued by po-
lice and citizens.
On June 8, several women aged
between 17 and 42 were attacked
at the square by members of the
same mob who carried out the
June 3 assault, the prosecution
said.
The attackers separated the
women, took them to dierent
spots in the square and circled
them.
They then attacked the
women, beat them and even
threatened to kidnap the chil-
dren of one of the victims, it
charged.
Activists have repeatedly
accused the government of turn-
ing a blind eye to the countrys
rampant phenomenon of sexual
violence.
Between November 2012 and
June 2013, around 250 cases of
sexual assault or harassment by
mobs or rapes using weapons
were reported during protests in
Cairo, according to activists.
Fathi Farid, a member of the
group I saw Harassment, said
Wednesdays ruling was speedy
but also politicised as the state
wants to show it is active in the
ght against sexual violence.
Egypt, which had no specic
law on sexual harassment, only
recently approved penalties for
such oences of jail terms, nes
or both.
After Sisis election, au-
thorities pledged to tackle the
epidemic, as graphic video foot-
age of a woman being sexually
assaulted at Tahrir Square went
viral on YouTube in early June,
sparking outrage.
The footage, apparently lmed
using a mobile phone, shows a
mob of men surrounding a young
woman, who was stripped and
badly bruised in the assault.
Egypts women, and the
world, are watching to see
what President Sisi will do to
put a halt to the sexual attacks
and harassment, the New York-
based Human Rights Watch said
last month. (AFP)

Prosecution
statement
Huge problem: Sexual har-
assment and assault is a huge
problem in Egypt. About 99
per cent of women in the
country have faced it in some
form or another.
Turmoil: Activists say inci-
dents soared in the turmoil
that followed the ouster of
longtime autocrat Hosni Mu-
barak in 2011.
Massive: The demonstra-
tions held in Tahrir since then
have seen horrifying levels of
sexual violence.
Exploits: In some cases,
mobs of men took advantage
of the lack of security forces
present at these gatherings
to harass, assault and even
gang-rape women with im-
punity.

No date has been set yet for a

HARARE, Thursday

Z
imbabwe President
Robert Mugabe has
appealed to China for
nancial support to reboot a
struggling economy.
The 90 year-old leader made
the appeal during a meeting
with a visiting delegation from
the Communist Party of China
in Harare yesterday.
President Mugabe had early
this week dispatched Finance
minister Patrick Chinamasa to
Beijing to plead for a rescue
package.
Our relations with China
are historical relations, they
are revolutionary relations,
he told the delegation. We
related to China for a long,
long time during our struggle
before independence.
We will be talking about how
we can, together once again,
help each other now in our
socio-economic programmes
another revolution to develop
our countries so the fruits of
what we fought for together
can be yielded by yet another
struggle, joint struggle.
But this time a peace and
economic struggle that we shall
be waging with our natural
resources so we can produce
the necessary wealth for our
people.
In February, Mr Chinamasa
revealed that Zimbabwe and
China were negotiating a
comprehensive nancial res-
cue package.
Various reports put the
proposed package at over
$10 billion. China indicated
early this year that it wanted
Zimbabwe to use its mineral
proceeds to guarantee any
future loans.
The Asian giant has already
extended nearly $1.5 billion
in loans to Harare in the past
three years.
Zimbabwes ailing economy
continues to struggle despite
promises by President Mu-
gabe that his overwhelming
victory a year ago would give
him the leverage to reverse the
decline.
The government has been
struggling to pay civil servants
on time and hospitals are run-
ning out of essential drugs.
President Mugabe blames
the economic woes on sanc-
tions imposed on the country
by Western countries.
Critics say the 90 year-old
leaders policies on land and
company ownership chase
away investors from a country
that is very rich in minerals.

Ecowas leaders approve
end of residence permits
BY TAMBA JEAN-MATTHEW
NATION Correspondent
DAKAR, Thursday

West African leaders have
approved the abolition of
the residence permit and the
introduction of the biometric
identity card for the commu-
nitys citizens.
A statement by the ECOWAS
Commission said the decision
was reached during the 45th
Ordinary Session of the Au-
thority of Heads of State and
Government of the ECOWAS
in Accra, Ghana.
The Ministers in charge
of Security have accordingly
been requested to review all
the security implications of
the status of residence permit
and the introduction of the
biometric identity card for
community citizens prior to the
signing of the Supplementary
Acts later this year.
So far, only Gambia and
Cape Verde are known for en-
forcing the residence permits
which are issued at exorbi-
tant fees and renewable every
three months.
The leaders also encouraged
the member states to sustain
efforts at boosting regional
economic performance and
consolidate the common
market. They specifically
instructed the Ecowas Com-
mission, in conjunction with
all stakeholders, to meet the
implementation deadlines of
the pending tasks.
Furthermore, the leaders
urged member states to sustain
their eorts at strengthening
the economic, budgetary and
nancial reforms, as well as
taking ownership and ensur-
ing eective implementation
of the regional programmes,
with a view to consolidating
the achievements.

KAMPALA, Thursday
Street children in Uganda suer from systematic
abuse by the countrys police and other ocials,
including beatings and sex attacks, Human Rights
Watch said in a report today.
Human Rights Watch said it had documented
how police and ocials threaten street children at
night, and beat them with batons, whips, or wires
to extort bribes or as a punishment for vagrancy.
Homeless children are also at risk of beatings and
forced drug use from older homeless children or
adults, and both boys and girls living on the street
reported being raped or sexually assaulted by men
and older street boys, the report said.
Ugandan authorities should be protecting and
helping homeless children, not beating them up
or throwing them in police jails with adults, said
Maria Burnett, senior Africa researcher at Human
Rights Watch.
The government should end arbitrary round-
ups of street children and protect them from abuse.
Instead of being able to turn to the police or local
government ocials for help when theyve been
abused, children nd themselves living in fear of
the authorities meant to protect them.
Over half of all Ugandans are under 15, and
children are the single largest demographic group
living in poverty, the report said, adding that the
number of Ugandan children living on the streets
was increasing though the total number is not
known. Many are homeless because their parents
have died from Aids. (AFP)

KUALA LUMPUR, Thursday
M
aalaysia Airlines said
today that a passen-
ger plane feared
crashed in eastern Ukraine
was carrying 295 people,
amid speculation it had been
shot down.
Malaysia Airlines conrms
it received notication from
Ukrainian ATC (air traffic
control) that it had lost con-
tact with ight MH17 at 1415
(GMT)... approximately 50
km from the Russia-Ukraine
border, the airline said on its
Twitter account.
The ag carrier, still reeling
from the mysterious March 8
disappearance of ight MH370,
said the aircraft was travelling
from Amsterdam on an over-
night ight to Kuala Lumpur
with 280 passengers and 15
crew.
It had been expected in the
Malaysian capital at 6:10 am on
Friday (2210 GMT Thursday).
It gave no further information
on what might have happened
to the plane.
Malaysian Prime Minister
Najib Razak was seen arriving
at Kuala Lumpur International
Airport to meet with ocials
on the tragedy.
I am shocked by reports
that an MH plane crashed,
he said earlier on his Twit-
ter feed.
We are launching an im-
mediate investigation.
Government ocials were
expected to hold a press con-
ference early Friday.
Ukrainian President Petro
Poroshenko said the jet
crashed over rebel-held east-
ern Ukraine and may have
been shot down. We do not
exclude that the plane was
shot down and conrm that
the Ukraine Armed Forces
did not re at any targets in
the sky, Mr Poroshenko said
in a statement posted on the
presidents website.
Regional ocials in Donetsk
in eastern Ukraine conrmed
the plane had come down near
the town of Shaktarsk.
A social media site attributed
to a top Ukrainian rebel com-
mander said insurgents had
shot down an army transporter
at the location where the plane
came down near the Russian
border.
The comment suggest the
separatists had shot down the
aircraft by mistake, believing
it was a large Ukrainian army
transport plane.
Emergency services were
rushing to the scene, a security
source told Interfax-Ukraine.
The incident is a fresh body
blow to the ag carrier which,
along with the Malaysian gov-
ernment, is still struggling to
provide answers to the disap-
pearance of ight MH370.
That plane went missing
with 239 passengers and crew
on board and is now believed
to have diverted o its ight
path and crashed in the remote
Indian Ocean.
No trace of the plane has
yet been found. Kiev earlier
accused Russia of downing a
Ukrainian military plane on a
mission over the east of the
country. (AFP)

BBC News to cut 400 jobs in austerity drive
LONDON, Thursday
The BBC said today it will
cut 415 jobs from its news
department in the latest
cost-cutting measures by the
worlds largest public broad-
caster.
Director of News James
Harding said the cuts were
part of savings needed as
a result of a freeze in the
licence fee, which all British
households with a television
must pay.
The cuts will save 48 mil-
lion (KSh7.1bn) a year over the
next two years and are part of
a total of 800 million in sav-
ings that began in 2010.
The British Broadcasting
Corporation would restruc-
ture its news operations
while increasing its invest-
ment in digital journalism,
Harding said.
It will be a testing time
of uncertainty and change,
Mr Harding was quoted by
the BBC as telling sta in a
brieng at its headquarters
in London.
The challenge is how to
make BBC News even better,
despite having less money.
But he said the BBC would
create 195 new posts in the
news division as part of a
restructuring plan, meaning
an overall reduction of 220
full-time jobs.
Mr Harding joined the BBC
last August, having previously
edited The Times newspa-
per, owned by media mogul
Rupert Murdochs News UK.
BBC News currently employs
around 8,400 people, includ-
ing some 5,000 journalists, the

JERUSALEM, Thursday
I
srael said today it had
agreed on a truce with
Hamas to end 10 days of
violence in Gaza, although the
reported deal was denied by the
Islamist movement.
News of a fresh attempt to
end the worst bloodshed in the
Gaza Strip in ve years came
during a ve-hour humanitar-
ian truce, under which both
Israel and Hamas militants had
agreed to hold their re.
As relative calm returned to
the skies over Gaza for the rst
time since July 8, Palestinian
president Mahmud Abbas was
due to meet with his Egyptian
counterpart, Abdel Fattah al-
Sisi as Cairo pushed regional
eorts to broker a new cease-
re deal. An earlier Egyptian
attempt to end hostilities
collapsed on Tuesday, with
Hamas claiming it had not
been included in the negotia-
tions.
Speaking on condition of
anonymity, an Israeli ocial
told AFP the Jewish state
and Hamas have agreed on a
ceasere that would begin at
0300 GMT on Friday.
But Hamas shot down the
report. The news about a
ceasere is incorrect. There
are continuing efforts but
no agreement until now,
spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri
told AFP in Gaza. Despite the
diplomacy, there seemed little
appetite from either side to end
their confrontation, which has
so far claimed the lives of 231
people in Gaza and one person
in Israel.
During the five-hour hu-
manitarian lull, which had
been requested by the United
Nations, militants in Gaza red
three mortar shells at south-
ern Israel. And shortly after it
ended at 1200 GMT, another
Gaza rocket crashed near the
southern port city of Ashkelon,
the army said.
Meanwhile, Israeli air strikes
in Gaza killed four children
today, medics said, after a
humanitarian lull in a 10-day
conflict that has killed 237
Palestinians.
One strike hit the Sabra
neighbourhood of central Gaza,
killing three children Jihad,
Waseem and Fulla from the
Shuheiber family, emergency
services spokesman Ashraf al-
Qudra told AFP. Their deaths
were the rst to follow the end
of a five-hour humanitarian
ceasere, which brought some
respite for residents. (AFP)

SYDNEY, Thursday
W
ikiLeaks founder Ju-
lian Assange today
reacted angrily after
Australias attorney-general
said he should be man
enough to face Swedish
sexual assault allegations.
The Australian, who has
been holed up in Ecuadors
embassy in London for more
than two years, lost a court bid
on Wednesday to get a Swed-
ish arrest warrant against him
scrapped.
Australian Attorney-General
George Brandis told ABC radio
the 43-year-old should deal
with the claims against him.
I think Mr Assange should
be man enough to face the al-
legations against him of being
a sexual predator, he said.
Mr Assange, who denies
the charges, fears that if he
goes to Sweden he will be
sent to the United States to
face charges for publishing
classied material.
He accused Mr Brandis of
stealing comments US Secre-
tary of State John Kerry made
about intelligence whistle-
blower Edward Snowden.
AG Brandis should stop
plagiarising sexist claptrap and
start doing his job: defending
the legal rights of all Austral-
ians, he said in a statement to
Australian Associated Press.
The former computer hacker,
who has accused his home
country of abandoning him,
last year said he would not
publicly address the Swedish
allegations because Australian
men dont like to talk about
their private lives.
He lashed out at Prime
Minister Tony Abbotts gov-
ernment in his statement
to AAP. WikiLeaks female
sta members, who squared
o with a superpower over
our work and brought Edward
Snowden to safety during the
largest intelligence manhunt
the world has ever seen, have
more genuine courage in their
little toes than the entire Ab-
bott cabinet, he said.
Assange wants Swedish
investigators to question him
in London.
The activist sought refuge
with Ecuador in June 2012
after exhausting all legal op-
tions in British courts to avoid
being extradited to Sweden.
WikiLeaks angered the
United States in 2010 by
publishing hundreds of
thousands of classied docu-
ments on the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan, as well as a huge
cache of US diplomatic cables
that embarrassed governments
worldwide. (AFP)

England, Wales see big drop in births
LONDON, Thursday
The number of babies born
in England and Wales showed
the biggest drop in 2013 for
nearly 40 years, ocial sta-
tistics showed yesterday, hit
by an uncertain economic
outlook and changes to the
welfare system.
The fall marked a departure
from previous years, as birth
numbers have risen annually
since 2001 except for a slight
fall in 2009. The decline could
be inuenced by uncertainty
about employment and lower
career and promotion op-
portunities and government
changes to the welfare system,
the Oce for National Statis-
tics said.
The 4.3 per cent decrease in
live births between 2013 and
2012 was the biggest annual
fall since 1975.
Over a quarter of live births
- 26.5 per cent compared to
25.9 per cent the previous year
- were by mothers who were
born outside Britain.
The average age of mother-
hood reached 30 for the rst
time since records began in
1938. Nearly half of all babies
were born outside marriage
or a civil partnership, a per
centage that has been rising
over the long-term.

T
he Jomo Kenyatta Interna-
tional Airport is to build a new
terminal with lounges for the
auent visiting the country.
In a notice published in newspa-
pers yesterday, the Kenya Airports
Authority, which runs the airport,
called for investors to bid for the
construction, management and op-
eration of new terminal to handle
commercially important persons.
At the moment, the airport only
has VIP and Presidential lounges with
limited capacity. The new terminal
would handle premium passengers
and government dignitaries. In ad-
dition to the commercially important
person terminal.
The authority is also looking to
private investors to put money in a
planned industrial park, a shopping
mall, a hotel and a medical facility
at the airport.
All these developments will go
a long way in positioning Jomo
Kenyatta International Airport as
the premier aviation and commer-
cial hub in the region, the authority
noted.
Companies interested in investing
in the new terminal will have to show
that they have experience running
similar facilities around the world
and handling diplomatic protocol.
Going by global standards, pas-
sengers using the terminal will likely
pay a premium for the services.
Abu Dhabi International Airport,
for instance, charges users at least
Sh48,000 (AED 2,000) for arrival
and departure services and Sh84,000
(AED 3,500) for transit at its VIP
terminal. At London Heathrow Air-
port, moneyed passengers part with
at least Sh224,950 (1,500) for VIP
services, before value-added tax. This
covers one to six travellers.
Generally, passengers using these
terminals will be provided with
private lounges to relax or hold
meetings. Their choice of food and
beverages will be served as airport
staff process their immigration
documents, check-in or baggage
collection.
Private jet
The aim is to cater for the super-
rich ying in on private jets and who
would not technically t in the VIP
or Presidential lounges.
In London, passengers are also
provided private shoppers and a
chauffeur to drive them to their
aircraft for departures.
The hotel, medical centre and
the shopping mall at the Jomo
Kenyatta airport will be developed
under similar arrangements with
private rms expected to build and
manage them. The medical centre
is expected to provide diagnostic,
on-site laboratory, ambulance and
pharmacy services.
The hotel is likely to be built by
a giant hospitality chain with the
airport authority requesting that
bidders provide experience that
they have constructed facilities with
four-star ratings and are managing
at least 10 branded hotels in three
continents.
Economic zone
A 2.25 hectare land has been ear-
marked for the construction of the
mall that will house restaurants,
business centres, and other depart-
mental stores.
Land will be leased out to busi-
nesses wishing to be housed in the
airport business zone which will later
evolve into a special economic zone.
According to a report by the Busi-
ness Daily last week, the business
zone will host industries produc-
ing beauty and healthcare goods,
electronics, pharmaceuticals and
laboratory equipment.
The airport is being expanded.
Terminal 1, with a capacity of 2.5
million passengers annually, is ex-
pected to be fully working by the end
of the year. The airports authority
is also developing greeneld project
Terminal 3 which will handle
up to 20 million passengers once
completed.

Two civil rights activists want the
High Court to compel a private Ken-
yan company to prove ownership of
the frequencies it claims to have.
In a petition set for hearing today,
activists Okiya Omtatah and Wyclife
Nyakina, want the court to order Tetra
Radio to provide proof that it is the
bona de holder of a licence to the
frequency band originally reserved for
security and emergency services.
Issue an interim order ordering
Tetra Radio Limited to produce evi-
dence to back up their claims that they
are the bona de licensee of frequen-
cies in the bandwidth range 370 MHz
to 470 MHz (both inclusive) and the
broadband spectrum, a notice of mo-
tion seen by the Nation reads.
The petitioners are also seeking that
investigations into the circumstances
under which the Communication Au-
thority of Kenya awarded a licence
for frequencies reserved for security
forces to Tetra, a private company,
be launched.
The motion notes that the Com-
munications Authority of Kenya
purportedly awarded to Tetra Radio
Ltd the said licence for the frequen-
cies reserved for use by security and
emergency services and the broadband
spectrum bandwidth in the 2.3 GHz
to 2.5 GHz without the company pay-
ing the requisite $5.2 million (Sh452.4
million) in licence fees.
Tetra had last month demanded
to be paid Sh1.3 billion before the
government executes the police com-
munications and surveillance system
contract it has awarded Safaricom.
Respondents in the case include the
National Police Service and Inspec-
tor-General David Kimaiyo, Interior
Principal Secretary, the Attorney-Gen-
eral, Director of Public Prosecutions,
ZTE Kenya and the Ethics and Anti-
Corruption Commission.

ucts would be built in Kiambu and
Nakuru counties.

A
study to assess the
input technology
is making to the
countrys wealth creation
has been launched.
Information and Tech-
nology Cabinet Secretary
Fred Matiangi said on
Wednesday that technol-
ogy has played a great role
in Kenyas growth, yet the
gures supporting its im-
pact continue to vary.
The World Bank shows
dierent gures from the
government and other
research organisations
that have tried to link ICT
to economic growth, Dr
Matiangi said.
The ministry has set up a
team to do the study. This
is vital as ICT continues to
play a key role as the eco-
nomic driver anchored in
Vision 2030, he added.
The survey will cover
all aspects of ICT, its
positive contribution to the
economy, factors that will
make it thrive, how to tackle
illegal access to private data
(cyber security), the gap be-
tween technology and the
market, among others.
A 2013 research: Lions go
digital, states that Kenyas
Internet contribution to the
GDP is at 2.9 per cent.
Internet impacts
The study singles out -
nancial services, education,
health, retail, agriculture
and the government as
key areas where the Inter-
net impacts on economic
growth and social trans-
formation.
The government projects
that ICT will contribute 10
per cent to the GDPs
growth by 2017 up from
2.9 per cent at the moment.
The World Bank estimates
that ICT has grown an aver-
age of 20 per cent in Kenya
per year since 2000.

NEW YORK, Thursday
Bank of America put $13
billion on the table in nego-
tiations with US authorities
over a mortgage-linked se-
curities settlement, although
talks are far from over, a source
familiar with the matter said
on Wednesday.
Bank of America, the second
largest US lender in terms of
assets, had been in talks for
several months with the Jus-
tice Department when it made
the oer on Tuesday during a
meeting with federal pros-
ecutors, the source told AFP,
conrming reports in The Wall
Street Journal.
The Department of Justice,
however, has demanded $17 bil-
lion from the bank, US media
reported.
Negotiations between the
two had become deadlocked in
mid-June, but the resumption
of talks were not an indication
that they were headed towards
a settlement, the source said.
Bank of America has ex-
pressed its desire to pay for
large parts of the settlement
under structuring that would
allow for payment of damages
to clients in dierent forms,
such as consumer relief.
The Department of Justice
alleges that Bank of America
proted from mortgage-linked
securities that sank in value
after the housing bust, generat-
ing billions of dollars in losses
for investors. These toxic loans
were related to complex nan-
cial products.
The penalty would be equal
in value to a record $13 billion
settlement between the Justice
Department and JPMorgan
Chase concerning high-risk
mortgage securities it sold
ahead of the housing bust.

Murdoch still eyes
rival after rejection
NEW YORK, Thursday
Rupert Murdochs
conglomerate said on
Wednesday it made an
unsuccessful bid for rival
Time Warner which could
shake up the media-enter-
tainment world.
The bid by 21st Century
Fox, which would merge
two of the worlds big-
gest media-entertainment
empires if allowed to pro-
ceed, was for $80 billion,
a source familiar with the
talks told AFP.
A statement from 21st
Century Fox, said it made
a formal proposal to Time
Warner last month to com-
bine the two companies.
The source said that de-
spite the rejection, Murdoch
still wants a deal.
He is determined to buy
Time Warner, the source
said.
The statement from 21st
Century Fox, which came
after a New York Times re-
port about the oer, said the
Time Warner board of direc-
tors declined to pursue our
proposal, and added that
we are not currently in
any discussions with Time
Warner.
The source familiar with
the talks told AFP Murdo-
chs group wanted to buy
Time Warner and then spin
o CNN, which is the cable
news rival to his Fox News
Channel.
Time Warner meanwhile
issued a separate statement
conrming that it received,
and rejected, an offer of
stock and cash from 21st
Century Fox.
The statement said the
Time Warner board de-
termined that it was not in
the best interests of Time
Warner or its stockholders
to accept the proposal or
to pursue any discussions
with Murdochs rm.
The board is condent
that continuing to execute
its strategic plan will create
signicantly more value for
the company and its stock-
holders, the statement
said. (AFP)

COUNTER | British company contests order, says it might seek international arbitration
KAMPALA, Thursday
A
Ugandan tax appeals court
on Wednesday ordered the
Anglo-Irish rm Tullow Oil
to pay a $407 million (about Sh36
billion) tax bill related to the sale
of local assets in 2012.
Tullow Oil, which had already
paid $142 million or 30 per cent of
the bill to appeal an earlier ruling,
contested the decision and said
Pay duty on
gains made
from blocks,
explorer told
Uganda hits Tullow Oil with Sh36bn tax bill
it might seek international
arbitration.
The ruling holds that the
firm is fully liable to pay
capital gains tax on the $2.9
billion sale of three of Tullows
exploration blocks in Uganda
to Frances Total and the China
National Oshore Oil Corpora-
tion (CNOOC).
Tullow is very concerned
by this ruling which ignores
a contractual term signed
by a Government Minister
in Uganda, company chief
executive Aidan Heavey said
in a statement.
Tullow is Ugandas larg-
est foreign investor and a
major taxpayer. Over the last
10 years, Tullow has spent
$2.8 billion in Uganda and
discovered 1.7 billion barrels
of oil. This money was spent
by Tullow on the understand-
ing that our contracts with the
government, which contained
important incentives to invest
that were vital at a time when
no oil had been discovered in
Uganda, would be honoured,
he added.
Mr Heavey said the rm will
now carefully consider all our
options to robustly challenge
this ruling, and a company
statement said: Tullow con-
siders, based on external legal
advice, that the international
arbitration tribunal will award
in its favour.
Uganda discovered exploit-
able deposits of oil along its
volatile western border with
the Democratic Republic of
Congo in 2006, and ocials
now estimate reserves at up to
3.5 billion barrels. (AFP)

Google adds
former Ford
head to board
SAN FRANCISCO, Thursday
Google on Tuesday announced
that former Ford Motor Company
chief Alan Mulally (above) has
joined its board of directors.
The auto and aviation industries
veteran joined the Google board
as the California technology rm
continued to steer a self-driving
car toward the market. Mr Mula-
lly was appointed to the California
technology titans board on July 9,
according to a blog post.
Alan brings a wealth of proven
business and technology leader-
ship experience, Google chief
Larry Page said in a statement.
Mr Mulally served as the chief
of Ford from September of 2006
to June of this year.
He was an executive at aircraft
maker Boeing before working at
Ford. (AFP)
RESULTS
The Board of Directors is pleased to announce the unaudited results for the Group for the six months ended June 30,
2014.Group revenue for the first six months increased by16% to KES 7.6 Billion over the corresponding period last year. Cement sales
increased in Kenya by 10% and in Tanzania by 38% as the Rhino Cement brand continued to increase distribution throughout the
country. In Kenya, our Mavuno Fertilizer business recorded significant growth following the recommendation for the use of Mavuno in
the Soil Suitability Evaluation Report by the Ministry of Agriculture. Other divisions of the Group recorded steady performance.
Although the cost of energy and other inputs increased in the first half of the year, EBITDA margin remained steady at 24% due to
improvements in plant operations.Group Profit Before Tax increased to KES 1.2 billion, an increase of 20% over the first half of 2013.Net
Profit increased by 20% from KES 703 Million to KES 847 Million.Cash generated before working capital changes grew from KES 1.6
Billion to KES 1.8 Billion during the first six months of this year.
Investment towards completion of the Tanga plant continued in the first half of the year, totaling to KES 2.7 billion. The total investment
in the combined 1.8 million tons per year Tanga clinker plant and Dar Es Salaam cement plant to date is KES 15 Billion.
OUTLOOK
The Group has recorded significant growth in both turnover and profit during the first half of this year. This is expected to grow further
during the second half of the year with improved EBITDA margins upon commencement of clinker production at the Tanga plant. The
East African regional economies are growing briskly, and demand for cement as well as the other products are expected to grow further.
Looking ahead at 2015 and beyond, the increased cement capacity, with our own clinker production, will significantly increase Group
revenues, EBITDA and cash generation.
DIVIDEND
In accordance with past practice, the Board of Directors does not recommend an interim dividend for the year.

K
enyas basketball team was
disqualied from the womens
nal as the curtain came down
on the seventh edition of the All Africa
University Games in Nairobi.
The team, which drew its players from
the United States International Univer-
sity-Africa (USIU-A), had won all its four
matches, but was disqualied hours be-
fore the nal match against Uganda for
elding non-Kenyans.
Burundian duo of Magnique Ndakiy-
engerutse and Cynthia Irankunda as well
as Sudanese national Gyblaine Uwimana
have been playing for Kenya since the
competition started.
Uganda, who had lost twice to Kenya
in the competition, launched a formal
complaint through their team manager
and were rewarded when the events
Technical Organizing Committee de-
cided to exclude Kenya from the nal.
The players have been playing for
us since the competition started. Why
are we being disqualied after coming
so far? a visibly-angry USIU captain
Zippporah Odhiambo said.
Hosts Kenya were also found guilty
of elding complete teams drawn
from individual universities in
dierent disciplines instead of
forming teams of students from
dierent universities.
Uganda, who had lost twice
to Kenya, were scheduled to
play Mozambique in the nal. Mo-
zambique had lost all their four matches
against both teams.
Ocials went missing
USIU team manager Bonface Salano
who is also Kenya University Sports
Association chairman and a member
of the events technical committee
went missing and could not be reached
for comment.
We feel very discouraged because
we knew we would win gold for Kenya.
That the same committee which gave us
the accreditation turned against us at
the last minute and disqualied is very
disappointing, a player who sought
anonymity said.
Mozambique, who were basketball
winners in the 2012 competitions, nev-
ertheless served up a scintillating match
against Uganda, with Tembo Monica and
Soussa Citan accounting for 18 points
to see Mozambique lead Uganda 20-15
at the end of the second quarter.
Uganda carried the day after a 48-44
victory at the nal whistle, winning their
fourth gold medal to nish fth overall
in the tournament.
The 2010 and 2012 champions Egypt
retained the overall title with 112 med-
als, 66 being gold, 38 silver and eight
bronze. Ghana nished second overall
with 11 gold medals, four silver and a
similar number of bronze.
Hosts Kenya nished a distant third
with only eight gold medals - ve gold
from track events, and one each from
badminton, karate and tennis.

elding ineligible players as

Accreditation hitch yesterday saw
four cyclists, including veteran David
Kinja and an ocial fail, to travel
for the Commonwealth Games due
on July 23 to August 3 in Glasgow,
Scotland.
Also failing to travel was Samson
Okuto from the Elite Athlete with
Disability team after a wrong entry
by name for accreditation as most
competitors in athletics team opted
to stay behind.
Martin Owila has also been re-
placed by seasoned Biko Adema in
the Sevens rugby team after he failed
to secure his accreditation on time.
However, Team Kenya general
manager Pius Ochieng said the
problems were being sorted out and
the athletes would y out latest on
Monday. Kinja (pictured), who will
be making his third appearance at
the Club Games after Manchester
2002 and Melbourne 2006, was left
behind alongside debutants Doreen
Musoliza, Mary Mburu and Caroline
Ondiege.
No cause for alarm
Anjelina Achieng, who is in charge
of the women cyclists, was also left
behind. The biometrics for the cy-
cling team and athletes in Para Sport
are being processed and there should
be no cause for alarm, said Ochieng,
who saw o seven other athletes in
the cycling, bowling, triathlon and
wrestling teams.
Joyce Nyaruri, who nished fourth
at the All Africa Games in Maputo in
2011, is the cycling team captain.
Some of the track and eld athletes
and marathoners who were due to
leave yesterday will now depart for
Glasgow on dierent days.
Meanwhile, all was well in the
Kenyan camp after the Government
paid the athletes their overseas allow-
ances starting Wednesday afternoon
through to yesterday.
Among those who opted to remain
behind is the overall team captain
Ezekiel Kemboi, who is the Olympic
and World 3,000m champion. The
3,000m steeplechase men and wom-
ens teams will leave on August 1.

forthcoming 2014 FIVB Grand
Prix will oer his charges an
opportunity to get back to their
winning ways.
Kenya is one of the two Af-
rican sides invited to debut at
the international competition
starting next week.
The team has xtures against
hosts Mexico, Bulgaria and
nemesis Algeria lined up be-
tween July 25-27 at the Olympic

in Mexico City.
Thereafter, the team will
travel to Croatia for the second

against Croatia, Bulgaria and
Australia at the Zatika Hall in
Porec, Croatia. This has not
been a very good year for Ken-
yas women volleyball. Since the
beginning of the year we havent
had any success stories to speak
of, Lungaho yesterday told the
Daily Nation Sport.
But from a sporting perspec-
tive the tournament will give
us a chance to try and set the
records right, he added.

seemed an assured 2014 World

Tunisia earlier this year.

Kenya 3-2 (25-21, 24-26, 15-25,

February, in what was later
described by a section of the
media as the end of an era for
the once dominant Kenyan
team.
Two months later, the na-

AFC Leopards have laid down
strategies to enable them nish
the league in a respectable posi-
tion following a four-hour meeting
between ocials and players in
Nairobi yesterday.
The two parties had been sum-
moned by former players to discuss
the clubs recent dismal perform-
ance in the league. Among the
strategies, all players will sign
commitment forms. Some players
openly blamed the poor results on
elding and accused a former team
manager of dividing them.
The players also demanded the
reinstatement of their goal-keeper
trainer, Washington Muhanji (pic-
tured) who is under suspension.
They said the technical bench was
favouring some players who rarely
train. The players want their train-
ing allowances to be paid promptly,
adding that such issues aected
their focus in training and com-
petitive play.
They said there was a lack of
communication between them
and the ocials. The relationship
between the players, the techni-
cal bench and the oce was our
main problem, midelder Charles
Okwemba said. When small issues
arrive and we want to follow the

Kenya 95th in
Fifa rankings
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
The national football team has
moved into the top 100 positions
on the monthly Fifa rankings for
the rst time in three years.
According to the latest rankings
released by the World governing
body, Harambee Stars have jumped
13 places to position 95 out of 208
countries.
Kenyas improvement is directly
linked to the countrys successful
outing in the ongoing 2015 Africa
Nations Cup qualiers, where Adel
Amrouches team defeated lowly
Comoros in the rst round of the
competition last month.
Kenya has also immensely ben-
eted from nations like Botswana,
New Zealand, Niger and Moldova,
who dropped crucial points after
losing matches or failing to feature
in competitive matches in the past
month.
Uganda - at position 87 - is the
highest ranked East African team
on the log, followed by Kenya.
Tanzania and Ethiopia are placed
106th and 110th respectively.

Kenya - buoyed by yesterdays signif-
icant leap in the monthly Fifa rankings
- was expected to leave Nairobi this
morning for the 4,300km trip to Maseru
- ahead of Sundays 2015 Africa Cup of
Nations qualifying tie.
Kenya moved 13 places up to position
95 on the rankings 36 places above their
Sunday opponents.
However uncertainty over the availability
of senior players - and especially depend-
able forward Dennis Oliech, is certain to
force Stars coach Adel Amrouche into
re-thinking his strategy in this contest
set for the Setotso Stadium.
Racing Genk (Belgium) striker Ayub
Timbe, El Merreikhs Allan Wanga, Francis
Kahata (Albania), Mungai Kiongera, Jacob
Keli and Edwin Lavatsa are the forwards
available for selection in Amrouches pre-
ferred 4-3-3 system of play.
But who among these players deserves
the nod upfront?

working guy who will play a signicant
role when we lose possession, Mulama, a
former Mathare United and Ismailia (Egypt)
midelder said.
Stars have only scored two goals in their
last three games, all coming from moments
of individual play rather than teamwork. Am-
rouche and his charges will also have to be
wary of Lesothos ability to cause upsets in
recent times.
The Likuena signicantly accounted for
Zambias failure to qualify for this years
World Cup, and also eliminated Liberia 2-1
on aggregate in their previous round of 2015

T
oni Kroos yesterday
became Real Ma-
drids rst high prole
signing for the new season,
moving from Bayern Munich
on a six-year deal just days
after winning the World Cup
with Germany.
The 24-year-old playmaker
had an outstanding World
Cup, scoring two goals in
two minutes in the 7-1 semi-
nal rout of Brazil, en route
to overcoming Argentina 1-0
in Sundays nal.
Spanish media said Real
and Bayern agreed a deal
worth between $33-$40
million (about Sh2.9 to 3.5
billion). The two clubs said
the transfer fee would remain
secret.
Kroos was due to be un-
veiled by his new employers
at a press conference yester-
day. His arrival could hasten
the departure of fellow Ger-
man Sami Khedira who risks
losing his mideld place.
Real hailed their latest
catch as one of the most
important players of the
moment.
A Real statement described
Kroos as a playmaker capa-
ble of nding the best option
in any situation, with a vision
of the game enabling him to
help his teammates, as well
as an impressive kick.
Kroos, whose contract
with Bayern expired next
season, sided with Real
over alternatives such as
Manchester United or
Chelsea.
A Bayern statement con-
rmed it had made a deal
with Real and that Kroos
had signed a six year con-
tract. The two clubs have
agreed to remain silent
about the transfer fee, it
said. We thank Toni Kross
for his time at Munich,
said Bayern chief executive
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
We have experienced great
successes with him.
Kroos arrives at the
Santiago Bernabeu with 11
trophies already on his cv,
the World Cup the jewel in
a collection including the
2013 Champions League,
Bundesliga titles and the
Club World Cup.
He joined Bayern as a
teenager in 2007, making
his first team appearance
at the age of 17. He became
a regular after an 18-month
loan spell at Bundesliga ri-
vals Bayern Leverkusen.
This is the second high
prole World Cup player to
move to La Liga this month,
following Luis Suarezs re-
ported EUR95 million ($128
million) transfer from Man-
chester City to Reals arch
rivals Barcelona.

Cup to Spain could also see

Spain may have been embar-

holders, but Real Madrid and
Barcelona are still champions at
making money after they were
named as the worlds two richest
sports franchises.
For the second successive year,
Forbes business magazine tagged
European champions Real Madrid,
where Cristiano Ronaldo plays, as
the number one sports team with
a value of $3.44 billion. (Sh302 bil-
lion). Barcelona, the home of Lionel
Messi, Neymar and now the notori-
ous Luis Suarez, are second in the
chart with a current value of $3.2
billion (Sh282bn), while English gi-
ants Manchester United are ranked
at three at $2.81 billion (Sh247bn)
despite their miserable season.
The only other football club in
the top 10 are German champions
Bayern Munich whose current value
of $1.85 billion (Sh163bn) is good
enough for seventh spot.
The rest of the top 10 is from Major
League Baseball and the National
Football League.
The New York Yankees are number
four, valued at $2.5 billion (Sh220bn)
with the Dallas Cowboys, worth $2.3
billion (Sh202bn), holding the fth
place.
With 30 teams in the top 50, for
the second consecutive year, the NFL
occupies 60% of this years list.
The average value of the top 50

T
he government has handed
over dozens of investigation
files to Switzerland, setting
the stage for possible extradition of
tycoon Deepak Kamani and two oth-
ers likely to face trial in the European
country.
The Anglo Leasing-related files
were passed over to Attorney-Gen-
eral Githu Muigai by the Ethics
and Anti-Corruption Commission
(EACC), which also said it was now
at the tail end of investigations into
the Sh18 billion scandal.
This could lead to the prosecution
of ve people believed to be the main
architects of the scandal.
Prof Muigai, while giving the docu-
ments to Swiss ambassador Jacques
Pitteloud, said cooperation between
Kenya and Switzerland in investigat-
ing the Anglo Leasing saga had been
going on for seven years.
He said the documents related to
money laundering and were given
following a request by the Swiss
government .
I received a written request by
the ambassador in respect of certain
Anglo Leasing-related cases infor-
mation that is required in that country
to complete investigations that may
very well lead to prosecution, he said
without elaborating.
The AG did not reveal the individu-
als whose information had been given
out, only saying EACC had a dozen
box les of information which was
handed to the Swiss envoy.
On Tuesday, Mr Kamani, his fa-
ther Chamanlal Kamani and brother
Rashmi Kamani asked a court to bar
the AG from acting on a request by
the Swiss Federal Attorney for in-
formation about them over money
laundering and dealings with rms
implicated in the Anglo Leasing
contracts, a request that was not
granted.
The Kamanis were linked to com-
panies that were awarded 13 out of
18 Anglo Leasing-related security
contracts.
The Swiss authorities wrote to Prof
Githu on June 3 requesting records of
payment that the government made
to Anglo Leasing-related companies
associated with the Kamanis, bank
documentation of the payments and
any deed of property transferred.
They further sought recorded
witness statements, evidence of
any corrupt payment made by the
government to the companies and
any document likely to conrm that
the three were engaged in money
laundering.
The Swiss Ambassador praised
Kenya for its swift move in hand-
ing over the information saying that
the action marked a new chapter in
international cooperation.

Nadine
Gordimer
South African novelist who took
on apartheid is dead at 90
FREE WITH YOUR DAILY NATION.
1923-2014
BY HELEN T VERONGOS
New York Times Syndicate
N
adine Gordimer, the South
African writer whose literary
ambitions led her into the
heart of apartheid to create
a body of ction that brought her a
Nobel Prize in 1991, died on Sunday
in Johannesburg. She was 90.
Gordimer did not originally choose
apartheid as her subject as a young
writer, she said, but she found it
impossible to dig deeply into South
African life without striking repression.
And once the Afrikaner nationalists
came to power in 1948, the scaolds
of the apartheid system began to
rise around her and could not be
ignored.
I am not a political person by
nature, Gordimer said years later. I
dont suppose if I had lived elsewhere,
my writing would have reflected
politics much, if at all.
But whether by accident of
geography or literary searching, she
found her themes in the injustices and
cruelties of her countrys policies of
racial division, and she left no quarter
of South African society unexplored,
from the hot, crowded cinder-block
neighbourhoods and tiny shebeens of
the black townships to the poolside
barbecues, hunting parties and
sundowner cocktails of the white
society.
Through Gordimers work,
international readers learned the
human eects of the colour bar and
the punishing laws that systematically
sealed off each avenue of contact
among races. Her books are rich
with terror. The fear of the security
forces pounding on the door in the
middle of the night is real. Freedom is
impossible. Even the political prisoner
released from jail is immediately
rearrested after experiencing the
briefest illusion of returning to the
world.
Critics have described the whole
of her work as constituting a social
history as told through nely drawn
portraits of the characters who peopled
it. Gordimer told little about her own
life, preferring to explore the intricacies
of the mind and heart in those of her
characters. It is the signicance of
detail wherein the truth lies, she
once said.
But some critics saw in her ction a
theme of personal as well as political
liberation, reflecting her struggles
growing up under the possessive,
controlling watch of a mother trapped
in an unhappy marriage.
Gordimer was the author of more
than two dozen works of fiction,
including novels and collections of
short stories, in addition to personal
and political essays and literary
criticism. Her first book of
stories, Face to Face, appeared
in 1949, and her rst novel, The
Lying Days, in 1953. In 2010,
she published Telling Times:
Writing and Living, 1954-
2008, a weighty volume of her
collected nonction.
She was never detained or
persecuted for her work, though there
were always risks to writing openly
about the ruling repressive regime. One
reason may have been her ability to give
voice to perspectives far from her own,
like those of colonial nationalists who
had created and thrived on the system
of institutionalised oppression that was
named the grand apartheid (from
the Afrikaans word for apartness)
when it became law.
Her ability to slip inside a life
completely dierent from her own took
her beyond the borders of white and
black to explore other cultures under
the boot of apartheid. In the 1983 short
story A Chip of Glass Ruby, she entered
an Indian Muslim household, and in
the novel My Sons Story (1990), she
wrote of a mixed-race character. She
won the Booker Prize in 1974 for The
Conservationist, which had a white
male protagonist.
Long before the struggle against
apartheid was won, some of her books
looked ahead to its overthrow and a
painful national rebirth. In Julys People
(1981), a violent war for equality has
come to the white suburbs, driving
out the ruling minority. In a reversal
of roles, July, a black servant, brings
his employers, a white family, to his
isolated village, where he can protect
them.
Gordimer wrote: The decently-
paid and contented male servant,
living in their yard since they had
married, clothed by them in two sets
of uniforms, khaki pants for rough

Nobel Prize winner who took the ght to apartheid South Africa
Nadime Gordimer, the celebrated South
African writer who, though overtly
apolitical, never stopped grappling
with politics despite her disdain for the
polemical, is dead, but her tombstone will
not just read Nobel Prize Winner, for this
was a woman who viewed herself as being
more than a laureate
The fact that my books were perceived as being
so political was because I lived my life in this
society that was so much changed by conict,
by political conict, which of course in practical
terms is human conict.

housework, white drill for waiting

alternate Sundays free, allowed to
have his friends visit him and his town
woman sleep with him in his room
he turned out to be the chosen one
in whose hands their lives were to be
held; frog prince, saviour, July.
In A Sport of Nature (1987), the
white wife of an assassinated black
leader becomes, with a new husband,
the triumphant rst lady of a country
rising from the rubble of the old order.
Perhaps surprisingly, Gordimers books
were not the product of someone who
had grown up in a household where
the politics of race were discussed.
Rather, Gordimer said, in her world,
the minority whites lived among
blacks as people live in a forest
among trees.
It was not her countrys problems
that set her to writing, she said. On
the contrary, she wrote in an essay,
it was learning to write that sent me
falling, falling through the surface of
the South African way of life.
Watchmaker father
Nadine Gordimer was born to Jewish
immigrant parents on November 20,
1923, in Springs, a mining town in
the northeast province now known
as Gauteng (formerly part of the
vast northeastern area referred to
as the Transvaal). Her father, Isidore
Gordimer, a watchmaker who had been
driven by poverty to emigrate from
Lithuania, eventually established his
own jewellery store. Her mother, the
former Nan Myers, had moved with her
family from Britain and never stopped
thinking of it as home.
In 1945, she attended the University
of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg
and thrived in what she called the
nursery bohemia of university
life, studying literature and deciding
to pursue a writing life. With the
exception of a trip to what is now
known as Zimbabwe, it was not until
she was 30 that she ventured outside
South Africa.
In 1949, Gordimer married a
dentist, Gerald Gavron, and they had a
daughter, Oriane. The marriage ended
in divorce in 1952. Two years later, she
married Reinhold H Cassirer, an art
dealer who had ed Nazi Germany
and was a nephew of the philosopher
Ernst Cassirer. Their son, Hugo, was
born in 1955. Reinhold Cassirer died
in 2001. Her son and her daughter
survive her.
Gordimer said little about her
personal life in interviews. Journalists
commonly noted her impatience with
certain personal questions, sometimes
describing her response as disdainful
and irritable.
She did mention flirtations on
occasion. My one preoccupation
outside the world of ideas was men,
she once said, without providing
details.
She never wrote an autobiography.
Autobiography, she said in 1963,
cant be written until one is old, cant
hurt anyones feelings, cant be sued for
libel, or, worse, contradicted.
She was, however, the subject of
a 2005 biography, No Cold Kitchen,
which drew wide attention, not least
for the bitter fallout she had with its
young author, Ronald Suresh Roberts,
a former Wall Street lawyer who
had grown up in Trinidad. She had
originally authorised the biography
and granted him access, but she later
withdrew the authorisation, objecting
to the manuscript and accusing
the author of breach of trust. The
publishers under contract for the
book Farrar, Straus & Giroux in
the United States and Bloomsbury in
Britain declined to publish it. (Both
also were publishers of Gordimers
work.)
The biography was eventually
published by a small South African
house and was the talk of literary
South Africa for its accusation that
Gordimer had admitted to fabricating
key elements in an autobiographical
essay in The New Yorker in 1954. It
also paints Gordimer as a hypocritical
white liberal whose words masked a
paternalistic attitude toward black
South Africa.
When the Nobel committee awarded
Gordimer the literature prize in 1991,
it took note of her political activism
but observed, she does not permit
this to encroach on her writings.

coverstory
Three of her
books banned by
apartheid South
Africa
Three of Gordimers books were
banned in her own country at some
point during the apartheid era
1948 to 1994. These are:
A World of Stran-
gers: Published in
1958, it concerns a
young British man,
newly arrived in
South Africa, who
discovers two dis-
tinct social planes
that he cannot
bridge: one in the
black townships,
to which one group of friends is rel-
egated; the other in the white world
of privilege, enjoyed by a handful of
others he knows. It was banned for
12 years.
The Late Bourgeois
World: Published in
1966, it was banned
for 10 yeats long
enough to be fatal
to most books,
Gordimer noted. It
deals with a woman
who faces a dicult
choice when her ex-
husband, a traitor
to the anti-apartheid resistance, com-
mits suicide.
Burgers Daugh-
ter: One of her
best-known, Burg-
ers Daughter tells
the story of the
child of a family
of revolutionaries
who seeks her
own way after her
father becomes a
martyr to the cause. It was unavail-
able in South Africa for only months
rather than years after it was pub-
lished in 1979, in part because by
then its author was internationally
known.

Middle: Writers Nor-

the South African writer
whose literary ambi-
tions as a watchmakers
daughter led her into
the heart of apartheid
to create a body of c-
tion that brought her a
Nobel Prize, died Sun-
day in Johannesburg.
She was 90.

ates from left: Nadine

Soyinkas 70th birthday,
at Harvard Universitys
Kennedy School of Gov-
ernment in Cambridge,
US, in April 27, 2005.
That sentiment was one she said she
clung to throughout her career. In 1975,
she wrote in the introduction to her
Selected Stories: The tension between
standing apart and being fully involved;
that is what makes a writer. That is
where we begin.
In later interviews, she said that no
one could live in a society like South
Africas and stay isolated from politics.
Looking back, she told an interviewer
in 1994, The fact that my books were
perceived as being so political was
because I lived my life in this society
that was so much changed by conict,
by political conict, which of course in
practical terms is human conict.
She never stopped grappling with
politics, despite her disdain for the
polemical. And book by book, she
crept closer to reconciling her writing
with her political self. What she did
not want to do, she said, was to write
in the service of the anti-apartheid
movement, despite her deep contempt
for the government system. Over time,
she revealed that she had been far from
passive when politics touched her
personally. She passed messages; hid
friends, including high-ranking gures,
who were trying to elude the police;
and secretly drove others to the border.
All these actions appear in her ction,
carried out by characters much braver
than she portrayed herself to be.
The great victory, the end of
apartheid, is not the end of the knotty
moral problems those characters
confront. In None to Accompany Me,
published in 1994, the year Nelson
Mandela was elected president in the
countrys rst fully democratic vote,
one subplot concerns a black political
exile, Didymus Maqoma, who comes
home, only to nd that he has no
place in the current struggle. Despite
his sacrices, he is overlooked by the
post-revolutionary leaders in favour
of his wife.
Reading Gordimers work is a
reminder that the noose around South
Africans tightened by increments,
with ever stricter laws followed by
correspondingly dimmer expectations.
Critics have said that the tone of
Gordimers writing uctuated with the
political climate, with an air of hope
giving way to a sense of bleakness as
racial violence gathered force.
Some of her most dicult moments
came in the 1970s, when the black
consciousness movement sought
to exclude whites from the ght for
majority rule. That period cut her o
from many intellectuals and artists and
left her work vulnerable to criticism
from many black Africans, who
contended that a white author could
never authentically tell a story through
the eyes of a black character.
Gordimer fought o that accusation,
saying, There are things that blacks
know about whites that we dont know
about ourselves, that we conceal and
dont reveal in our relationships and
the other way about.
Walls came tumbling down
In the end, the government was
too weak to enforce its laws while
contending with armed opposition
within and economic and political
pressure from outside.
In 1990, Mandela was released from
prison; in 1991 apartheid laws were
repealed, in 1993 a new constitution
was approved, and in 1994, the
walls came tumbling down with the
election.
During that exhilarating period,
when Mandelas African National
Congress party regained legal
standing, Gordimer, who had been a
secret member, paid her dues in person
and got a party card.
It was then, after the release of the
man who would be president within
a few years, that Gordimer won the
Nobel Prize. In the end, one of her
greatest fears proved hollow. Although
Gordimer was immensely gratied
to receive the Nobel, its valedictory
connotations led her to worry about
what it said to the world about her
future.
When I won the Nobel Prize, she
said, I didnt want it to be seen as a
wreath on my grave.

Q
uacks and crooks in
counselling, psychology
and physiotherapy had
better get packing. Parliament
is in the last stages of preparing
laws to introduce regulatory
measures aimed at securing
quality service in those fields
and weeding out practitioners
who dont deserve.
The National Assembly
has completed work on the
Counsellors, Psychologists
and Psychotherapists Bill,
sponsored by Kanduyi MP
Wafula Wamunyinyi as a private
member. All that remains for that
proposed law is the nal vote after
the Third Reading. Thereafter, it
will be ready for presentation to
the President to consider signing
it into law.
The main impact of the
laws enactment would be the
establishment of a Counsellors
and Psychologists Board, which
would register professionals,
renew their practicing licences
annually and deal with those who
breach the code of ethics.
Debate on the Second Reading
of the Physiotherapists Bill, also
a private members initiative by
Bureti MP Leonard Sang, has
ended. The House Business
Committee is expected to
schedule the Third Reading,
now that the National Assembly
has resumed sittings after a one-
week break.
Mr Sangs Bill seeks to set
up the Physiotherapy Council
of Kenya, which would among
other regulatory strategies,
set the minimum educational
requirements for one to be
registered as a physiotherapist.
For a long time, this profession
has not had any legal framework,
said Mr Sang as he introduced the
Bill at the Second Reading the
stage at which MPs can state what
they would like to change in the
proposed law.
The Bureti MP is himself a
physiotherapist. All there was
in the industry, he told the
House, was a code of conduct
developed by a committee of
physiotherapists, to provide for
ethical principles and not really
regulate the job.
The Physiotherapists Council
of Kenya, if formed as proposed,
will set up structures for the
registration of members of the
profession, including those
trained in other jurisdictions.
The council will also secure
compliance and set standards
for the practice, and thus
protect the public from
unscrupulous practitioners. It
will also encourage collaboration
with similar bodies from
other countries, thus helping
local physiotherapists to
improve their skills and grow
professionally.
If the Bill is passed
into law, the Registrar of
Physiotherapists would be
required to publish in the Kenya
Gazette, a list of all registered
professionals.
Before being registered
though, new professionals will
have to undergo internship and
coaching under more experienced
counterparts.
Health Committee vice
chairman Dr Robert Pukose
(Endebess MP) said registering
practising physiotherapists would
assure clients that the people
handling them were qualied.
Presently, it is hard to conrm
whether the person taking care
of your limbs and muscles are
qualied to do so.
Luanda MP Christopher
Omulele, therefore expressed the
view that given the importance
of physiotherapy in modern
medicine, it was necessary to
devise mechanisms to weed out
the many charlatans and medical
masqueraders, who, he alleged,
had invaded the profession.
The Bill on counsellors and
psychologists has a much longer
history. It was discussed in the
Ninth Parliament, whose term
ended in 2007 before it could
be done with. The sponsor, Mr
Wamunyinyi, did not make it to
the 10th Parliament, and there
was apparently no interest in
the proposed law until he was
re-elected to the House in March
2013.
The Counsellors, Psychologists
and Psychotherapists Bill states
that for one to be qualied as a
counsellor or psychologist, they
must have a bachelors degree as

The efforts by human resource management
practitioners in Kenya to put in motion the law
enacted two years ago to govern the profession just
encountered a hurdle.
The Human Resource Management Professionals
Act was enacted in 2012 to start regulating the practice
after a one year transition period.
However, a faction of practitioners emerged in 2013
to complain that it had been side-lined in the process
of midwing the law.
The group proceeded to court to stop the Institute
of Human Resources Management (IHRM), which had
initiated the creation of the law, from implementing
it without involving them.
The Association of Human Resource Practitioners
of Kenya (AHRPK) led their case at the High Court
on September 9, 2013, claiming that the HRMP Act
favoured IHRM as the automatic regulatory body,
and was thus unlawful.
Last month, the court pronounced its position on
the issues raised by AHRPK.
In a judgement dated June 6, High Court Judge
Mumbi Ngugi directed IHRM and the Attorney General
to, within six months and in consultation with all stake
holders, reconsider the provisions of the new law with
a view to ensure its proper implementation.
Organise elections for the Council
IHRM was directed to organise elections for the
Council of the institute within the same period, to
be conducted with the participation of its members,
those of AHRPK and all other institutions and
bodies involved in the human resource management
profession.
Judge Ngugi gave the directions after the court made
a nding that while the intention of the act to regulate
the human resource management professionals sector
was clear, the manner of and the responsibility for
such management was not set out succintly, leading
to confusion.
The act makes provisions for various things,
including the election of members of the Council,
under Section 7, to be done in accordance with
prescriptions in regulations. It is, however, silent
with regard to who has the responsibility to make
such regulations, argued Judge Ngugi.
Regulations
Section 44 grants the Council powers, with the
approval of the Cabinet Secretary, to make regulations.
However, it is not clear whether such regulations
include regulations for election of its members,
who would then have the responsibility of making
regulations under the act, or whether such regulations
for elections would be made by the interim council
as provided under Section 45 of the act, continued
judge Ngugi.
The judge further noted that it was also apparent
the drafters of the act had a specic institute for
human resource management in mind, and that
was IHRM.
The AHRPK thus had diculty in accepting the new
law due to the failure by IHRM to accommodate them

a minimum, and pass an examination set
by the Counsellors and Psychologists Board
proposed for establishment. The board will
have to be satised that any person seeking
to work as a counsellor or psychologist is of
good moral character.
The Health Committee at the House did
not agree with a proposal that psychologists
must have a masters degree as a minimum
qualication.
The proposed law also seeks to establish
the Counsellors and Psychologists Society
of Kenya as the umbrella body of the
professionals in psychotherapy. The council
would handle professional aspects, such as
organising for further training.
The Bill proposes that a person who tries
to get registered or does get registered or
licensed by lying or presenting forged
documents shall be liable on conviction
to a ne not exceeding Sh500,000 or to
imprisonment for a term not exceeding
two years, or both.
The board will also be required to
deregister a counsellor or psychologist who
is convicted of a crime.
I am sure members of the profession of
counselling and psychology are now happy.
They (will) now have a legal framework within
which to operate. Of course those people who
are qualied and are not registered will now
be done away with, said Wamunyinyi after
the Bill reached the last stage.

I
had a very exciting time this
week. I met with some very
noble Africans, including
former vice-presidents, former
mayors, and ministers from
dierent countries.
In the course of the discussion,
I asked them to name African
statesmen they thought fell in the
category of great leaders in the
last 50 years.
The answers focused on three
men two alive and one dead. No
one in the room nominated any
other person within. I found this
interesting because the audience
were themselves leaders.
This reminded me of another
time when I was working with
a major financial institution in
West Africa. At a session with
the leadership, I asked everyone
to write on a little piece of paper,
what they felt the problem with the
company was. When I read their
responses, I was very tickled.
They had unanimously attributed
the problems of the company to
leadership. Again remember that
these people were the leadership
of the institution.
These two examples show the
major problem on the continent.
What makes leadership so mystical
that it seems to elude us? What
makes leadership so dicult that
we seem not to crack it?
My view is that rst, it is because
we confuse being a leader with
being an office holder. I have
written about this before. Oce
holders manage status quo and
leave the oce as they found it.
Leaders take the oce to the next
level of its greatness.
If as a leader you are not able to
move your team to the next level,
then the biggest threat to your
leadership will be that person who
is seeing the next form and is able
to take the team there.
Leadership is not what you do.
It is who you are. If you are not a
leader before you get into oce, no
oce has the capacity of making a
leader out of you. The importance
of an oce will rise or fall to the
capacity of the leader.
When true leaders are in oce,
everyone desires the oce and it
looks so glamorous. When mere
oce holders are there, the oce
loses its appeal.
If you think you are a leader and
no one is following you voluntarily,
then you are simply taking a walk.
If people are following you because
there are consequences for not
following you, then you are an oce
holder and not a true leader.
Some people lead by intimidation,
which is not sustainable. Others
lead by inspiration. The day you
are not able to inspire the team
is the day they will stop following
you voluntarily.
If people follow you simply
because they have to, then they will
deliver only what they have to. If
on the other hand they follow you
because they want to, then they will
deliver much more than you even
know they are capable of.
The breakdown of leadership
starts from the lowest level the
individual. So many people have
a dream, know what they need to
do to take their dream to the next
level, but the challenge is in taking
that step to read that book, register
that company, make that call or
make that move.
Failure to lead self ultimately
leads to another failure; failure at
the family level. More than ever
before, there is a cry for mentors
and especially for fathers. When
fathers abdicate their leadership
roles, society cannot develop
holistically.
Failure of leadership at home
produces children who grow up
seeking aection and ultimately
nding it elsewhere. It produces
insecure people who desperately
need armation. It produces a
total mess.
Then we have leadership failures
at work where we intimidate and fail
to inspire teams. With leadership
failures at all these levels, is it no
wonder that as a continent, we are
still crying out for true leaders 50
years after independence?
CHANGE TALK | We confuse being an oce holder for being a leader
Why look far for leadership and not you?

Organisations that succeed have
unique characteristics that dene
them.
In her book, Eight Keys to Greatness,
Gene Landrum suggests that the
people who personify organisations
that do well tend to have charisma,
competitiveness, condence, drive,
intuitive vision, rebellion, risk-taking
and tenacity.
People with charisma have eective
communication skill. They are able
to sell themselves. According to
Landrum, the characteristics of
charismatics include self-esteem
and condence, rm belief in the
rightness of ones ideas, superman-
type of energy and enthusiasm. They
are hyper-expressive, highly articulate
and image conscious egomaniacs.
The second key to greatness,
continues Landrum, is
competitiveness, or the need to
win at all times. This means being
goal-oriented and working as if the
future of the world hangs on ones
ability to win.
Competition creates a drive to act
and forces the team to work harder. It
moves people from the comfort zone
to the zone of success. However, the
downside is that they are more prone
to heart disease than other individuals
due to the stress of wanting to be
dominant all the time.
The third key to greatness is
condence and self-esteem. These
are reected through great self-image
and deep convictions about oneself
and ones dreams. The self-esteem of
such individuals is accompanied by
resilience and an iron will. To these
people, anything in their way is not an
obstacle but a motivator. They have
a positive mindset about everything
and think win-win all the time.
Landrum states beautifully that
such people have the ability to focus
without thinking. Once they make up
their minds, they focus on how to win.
The only danger is that they tend to
be arrogant.
The fourth characteristic of great
organisations and people is drive.
They tend to live on the fast lane.
Such people are characterised by
compulsive workaholism. These
people seem to be in a hurry to get
things done and have no time to rest.
They are often insomniacs who make
do with just a few hours of sleep but
are still highly productive. They
tend to abuse their bodies and pay
the price in poor health.
The fth characteristic of greatness
is intuitionthe ability to see the big
picture and use it to implement ones
dreams. People with such ability are
visionaries. They are not caught up
in the details and can see the whole
picture. They tend not to sweat the
small stu. They are not locked into
a one-dimensional force-eld.
To become more intuitive, leave
your every-day surroundings and go
to a beautiful spot and stop being a
slave to numbers.
Rebellion, the sixth characteristic
of greatness, entails the ability to
become comfortable with ambiguity
and non-conformity. Such people dare
to be dierent and to defy traditional
thinking. They tend to break the rules.
They believe that success does not
come from following the pack but
from not conforming.
Risk-taking, the seventh
characteristic of greatness, involves
using innovation to bring about
change in society. According to
Landrum, you are a risk-taker, care-
taker or under-taker. Risk takers
tend to move things; care takers
maintain the status quo while
under-takers destroy and inter. Risk
takers know that great risks mean
great rewards.
Tenacity, the nal characteristic
of greatness, rests on the premise
that winners never quit and quitters
never win. Tenacity is the mother of
success. Without it, many inventors
would have quit in the face of glaring
criticism.
Successful salesmen know that they
will be turned down several times.
This does not stop them because
they focus on selling. Tenacity does
not see road-blocks on the way to
success. Tenacious people also have
perseverance and persistence.

in the process of implementing it.
Secretary general of AHRPK, Mr
Wicklie Gisebe Nyakina, had in his
court papers argued that at the time the
act was assented to by President Mwai
Kibaki in December 2012, there were
two institutions AHRPK and IHRM
regulating the profession, and they
had distinct councils.
IHRM had, however, proceeded to
carry out plans for the implementation
of the act, including the election of
Council members, without involving
AHRPK.
Requirements of the Constitution
Judge Ngugi said that while the court
was unable to nd any violation of the
constitutional rights of AHRPK or in
any way in which the provisions of the
act were unconstitutional, the court
was satised that the implementation
had not met the requirements of the
constitution.
The judge said: In line with the
provisions of the Constitution, the
implementation of the act must have
the input and participation of all those
whose lives, professions and indeed
livelihood it is intended to regulate.
Further, the judge argued, the
implementation must be in accord with
the tenets of the constitution which,
in Article 10, requires, among others,
inclusiveness and participation of the
people. It is not too late to ensure that
the act is one that can be implemented
and meet its objectives and purposes,

I said, pole sana! Im so
sorry. But when I looked at
Madoa,
I saw him still struggling in
vain to suppress his laughter.
I am not sure whether he was
laughing at the old mans tears,
trembling hands or halting
speech. I was disgusted with my
friends behaviour, which I had
never seen before. We parted
and went to our homes without
saying a word to each other.
After the conversation
with Madoa, I started to wait
for The American Dream. I
dreamt many dreams. I dreamt
about my mum beating me. I
dreamt about being chased by
a venomous snake. There were
times I would dream I was just
about to board a plane for the
rst time in my life. However,
before I stepped into the plane,
my sleep would end abruptly.
At times I would wake up, only
to nd I had forgotten all my
dreams. That would enrage me
very much. But all the same,
I did not dream the dream I
wanted, namely, the American
Dream.
One day, I started crying
when my mother woke me up
to go to school.
Why are you crying?
I havent had the American
Dream! I said as tears trickled
down my cheeks.
Are you mad son?
Madoa told me that
everyone dreams The American
Dream.
You must have been
bewitched child! Mums anger
was rising like a storm. I told
you not to play with that bad
boy Madoa. You have been
spending time with him again,
eeh?

21 QUESTIONS WITH MAUREEN ORWA
Raphael Ru Sipalla
RAPHAEL RUFF SIPALLA is not your aver-
age rock star... In fact, technically, hes not
even one any more but were glad to report
that the lad still packs a good sense of hu-
mour and is quite possibly a closet Mariah
Carey fan whos downright crazy about music.
This week, he gives ZuQka the skinny on why
he left ParkingLotGrass (PLG) and what he is
up to.
1
Who are you really?
Ru is simply an artistic being who is ad-
dicted to music and loves to laugh a lot.
2
So what happened with PLG?
Whyd you leave?
PLG was an awesome time in my life, honestly
but, I got to a place I can only call a crea-
tive blockade. It was better for me to leave
because I wasdragging the band into my
depression. But all is well now with Dunn (the
new vocalist) in the picture; Im already in love
with their new release, NawezaYou should
check it out.
3
Are you still doing music or have
you shelved it. Have you given a
lot of thought to how to proceed with
your career?
I dont think I can ever stop doing music. If
I do, Ill grow crazier. Its been a sweet six
months of musical soul-searching and I think I
am on to something.
4
What are you currently working
on?
I have a lot cooking; my second solo album,
my new band and a couple of collabos.
5
What are your plans in terms of
releasing music? Will you be do-
ing it independently?
Expect my music in a couple
of months but I am currently
in talking with Sand Stone
Studios (Ted Josiahs Record
Label) to work on some
stu. Deep inside from the
days of Shimo Mfukoni (a
single he released with
PLG) I am still an An-
dromeda baby; so expect
records from there too.
6
What was the
best advice
someone gave you
about the ins and
outs of the music
business?
Sometimes youre
up, sometimes youre
down... you just have
to learn to enjoy the
roller-coaster.
7
You tried your
hand at Tusker
Project Fame sea-
son 3. How did that
change your life?
It showed me the profes-
sional part of my art and really
opened up my eyes to the
industry, apart from the fame,
of course.
8
Who are some of the people who
inuenced you? Which bands
were you listening to?
Obviously I have a lot of rock inuences. Eric
Wainaina has always been my mentor but I
am also a sucker for jazz. Band-wise it has to
be Bullet for My Valentine (BFMV) and Foo
Fighters (still) among others. Locally, I cant
get enough of Sarabi and a new sensational
band called Five8 and of course, PLG.
9
What was the rst record you
bought?
He-he, this is going to cost me my street cre-
dentials so here goes, it was Mariah Careys
Buttery.
10
Who are some of todays ar-
tistes that you enjoy?
I have to say I love Maurice Kirya and an
amazing Gambian artiste who plays the kora,
King Kora, and Lokua Kanza.
11
What has been your proudest
moment as a musician?
My proudest moment has to be winning a
Chaguo La Teeniez Award years back.
12
What are your other interests,
apart from performing?
Id have to say I love nature and the peace it
brings, so I spend lots of time on the farm.
13
If you could trade places with
anyone in the world for one day,
who would it be?
Anne Kansiime the comedian because Id love
to be rude to people and have them thinking I
am funny for it.
14
Do you see yourself writing
songs for other artistes?
I would love to; in fact, Ive been writing for a
couple of artistes who I cant mention at the
moment.
15
What inspires you these days?
I am inspired by all that is around me.
16
Do you have a favourite wild
story from your past, something
you did or witnessed during a Park-
ingLotGrass tour or concert that still
makes you think, I cant believe that
happened?
That has to be the time we were in Germany,
I just went all out and jumped into the crowd
and that became my rst international crowd
surf.
17
When youre writing a song,
do you have to be in a certain
mood?
Not really, I just go with the ow.
18
Is there anything from your
past that makes you nostal-
gic, or are you just happy to have
it behind you?
I guess when I left PLG would be that
moment, that as much as I know my
parting ways with the guys would
herald a new chapter in my life, it was
still hard because we had achieved so
much together.
19
How old were you when
you rst picked up a
guitar?
I started playing the guitar pretty
late, some years after completing
secondary schooling.
20
Did you teach your-
self how to play gui-
tar?
I started by teaching myself then
went to The Kenya Music Con-
servatoire to clean it up.
21
How old are you?
Old enough to rock you.

Picture this: For 1,300
years your people have lived in
what is today called Palestine.
The population is predomi-
nantly Arab and Muslim. The
year is 1917. The colonialists
are dividing up the world. Brit-
ain and the Ottoman Turkish
forces ght a war and you are
the prize.
The Brits win. Thereafter,
they start spearheading waves
of Jewish Immigration into
your home. You are under-
standably upset and just as
the Mau Mau rose to challenge
British Rule in Kenya, by 1920
Palestinian riots are the order
of the day.
Undeterred, in 1948, the
Brits, in cahoots with the
World Zionist Organisation
and the UN general assembly,
decide that upon termina-
tion of the British mandate,
the state of Israel would be
declared. It actually comes to
pass. Imagine the Brits having
done the same here. Various
people have inhabited Kenya
as long as human history has
existed.
Imagine if the Brits had
rounded them up, brought
them home and declared
this their State. Thats what
happened in Palestine.
Arabs in neighbouring states
were up in arms and invaded
Palestine to ght the Israeli
forces. Enter the US who arm
the Israelis with state-of-the-
art weapons and begin what
will, for the foreseeable future,
result in conict, lack of peace
and birth of terrorism, as we
know it today.
Fresh from Hitlers madness
in his attempt to annihilate all
Jews, they are desperate for a
place to call home. This is it.
They migrate in large num-
bers.
The Western world is happy
to fund their settlement. They
give them nuclear warheads to
protect themselves. That shuts
up their Arab neighbours real
fast and the likes of Jordan and
Egypt sign peace treaties. But
no one wants Israel there.
Thats why the US gets jit-
tery when they hear of Arab
nations testing nuclear weap-
ons. They know that nukes are
the only things that keep Israel
safe from invasion.
In Africa and Asia we were
lucky, once we got our inde-
pendence from the British,
they left. The Palestinians
however were left with the
state of Israel. With that came
shackles. They are not allowed
access to the occupied terri-
tories. This means that Pales-
tinians cannot reach medical
services, travel to work, visit
relatives or transport goods.
Israel says restriction of move-
ment is to protect its citizens
from Palestinian violence. But
I ask, if one cannot eat or feed
their family because of you,
will they not be violent?
The West created this prob-
lem. They created a monster
they cannot control. You can-
not be President of the US
without the backing of the
wealthy Jews who control the
American economy. So Israel
can do whatever they like.
They can bomb Gaza every
single day. They can violate
international law and target ci-
vilians. They can kill as many
children as they want.
With their blockades they
can starve thousands more.
You would think that victims
of Hitlers atrocities would un-
derstand the injustice of it all. I
met a Jewish professor and he
accused me of anti-Semitism
for holding such views.
Not so. This is a Jewish-
Muslim question and one
cannot be subjective on a topic
one cannot benet from. Im
just telling it like I see it. I own
land in Narok that has squat-
ters on it. Im told that because
they have been there for a few
years, they have rights to my
land.
So imagine if they had been
there for 1,300 years! What
claim would I have to that
land? Terrorism was born be-
cause the West went to mess
with other peoples 1,300-
years-owned property. Now we
are all paying the price.

A buddy is heartbroken well, at
least he was a few weeks ago, but he seems
to have shaken o the dust and is now as
perky as ever, if only a little more disillu-
sioned about love than he was before the
following experience. When he announced
that he was in love, we all frowned no
one believed him. You see, he was the typi-
cal bad boy, with a few T-shirts to show for
it. He always had a lot of love and reck-
oned one woman could not exhaust it.
We collectively felt for the poor girl be-
cause we knew she was going to join the
long list of women who have had a taste of
his love. But lo and behold! he was actu-
ally in love. He was even talking marriage
and babies I, personally, suspected a
knock on his head to be responsible for
his strange behaviour. We all met her,
were wowed by her beauty and grace. It
was easy to see why he was completely
smitten. Month after month, his love for
her obviously grew.
Then, without warning, cracks appeared
in the relationship there was obviously
trouble in paradise. We, as friends, kept
the faith. I mean, there is nothing like a
smooth ride in relationships; it would be
strange if a couple agreed on every issue.
A few weeks later, and we knew there was
something very wrong.
Let me describe this friend a little. He is
as charming as they come, he is a ladies
magnet, he is big-bodied but carries the
weight so well you hardly notice it, he is
not the richest man in the universe, but
it is not from lack of trying, sometimes
(a lot of times, actually), some of us have
to wait a little longer to hit it big not
forgetting that big is relative. He has chil-
dren from a previous relationship.
What he did not know was that the girl
had plans. She wanted to nip and tuck (lit-
erally) him here and there. She thought
he should lose weight, quit smoking and
make a little more money than he was.
She also thought her family might have
a problem with the fact that he had other
children; I shudder to even think what she
expected him to do with them.
He was mentally reduced to size zero
by the
only woman he has loved in probably a
decade. He was angry and confused. He
wanted to keep her, he wanted to please
her, but he felt under pressure, and he
soon started to suspect that she was us-
ing all the stu she knew about him from
the word go to get rid of him I mean,
it is not like he added weight when they
were together, and if you have ever been a
smoker, you know the hardest way to quit
is under pressure.
The long and short of it the fairytale
is over. Fact is, there are no perfect men
(or women). Men are not items of cloth-
ing you can pick from a shop and cut the
way you want. If you do not like big men,
please do not lead one on.
If you hate smokers, keep away from
them. And what is this about the family
not liking the fact that he haschildren?
Would you rather a responsible man who
worries about his kids even when he is
not with their mother, or one who totally
ignores them?
Give me the latter anytime. As for the
money, it comes and goes, woe unto you
if you rely on it to be happy.

Cest la n. You get that lost feel-
ing, like a river on its homestretch,
meandering and directionless into
a ceaseless abyss, wondering what
youll do with the limitlessness of
time left on your lap. The ending
dripped with toxic emotion, and
to those in the eld, perhaps even
trauma, like sending your only son,
a private, into the unforgiving and
least enchanted world of Hitler and
Churchills unnecessary war, as Pat
Buchanan referred to it.
It was a nal of extreme ironies as
the only way Pique got to the nal is if
Shakira had given him complimentary
tickets to her stage performance, not
the other way round.
But the stand-up comedy of the WC
2014 was just getting started. The set
up moved from ironical to comical as
Messi, sponsored by Adidas, won the
Golden Ball, sponsored by Adidas.
Nothing particularly arcane or eso-
teric to derive from this; it was obvi-
ous even to he who was bequeathed
the award. At least he had the decency
to look ill at ease with the award.
Say whatever you will about the
Messi that destroyed Real 5-0, won
three CL titles and was top scorer for
a record ve tournaments consecu-
tively; such is the superuity of talent
in Messi, yet in this tournament, he
simply did not merit the golden ball.
Two people come to mind who might
have been more deserving, James Ro-
driguez and Thomas Muller.
But wait, surely Messi deserved
the golden ball, with Fred then com-
ing in second, and Song a distant
third. Luckily for James, the only way
to outscore your opponents to the
golden boot is by actually outscoring
them, nothing FIFAs technical study
group of coaching analysts could
twist about that.
Three clear chances are all Ar-
gentina needed to lose the nals; a
more clinical nishing and it prob-
ably would have been three goals.
Germany were also lucky not to have
been down to 10 men following that
horriccapoeira-ish charge by Manuel
Neuer on Higuain.
But FIFAs comical theatrics dont
just stop at the awards ceremony, but
include the locations as the next WC
is scheduled for what is otherwise the
natural habitat for winter Olympic
games, Russia. Well, at the moment
we know it as Russia, but considering
its recent expansionist tendencies,
this might well have changed by 2018.
In 2022, players will be expected to,
aside from taking on their footballing
opponents, ght to avoid evaporating
in the hellish summer heat of Qatar,
a FIFA master plan. Its like FIFA is
volunteering an experiment on spon-
taneous combustion. It is now safe to
assume that the 2026 World Cup will
be held underwater, preferably on the
Titanics deck. FIFA is so hell bent
on the nonsensical that if the World
Cup were there in the days of Noah,
its leadership would have insisted on
holding the tournament outside the
ark.
But Ive got this all wrong. After
all, even the FIFA president claimed
to have been taken aback by Messis
award, but probably not at the sudden
bump in his account from a German
sport gear manufacturer.
Theres little of precious value that
we learnt from the WC really, except
that, against all historical facts and
gures of the hugely African popu-
lation in both Argentina and South
America, the Argentine team has
no black members. Inferences can
be drawn from this, but it would re-
quire a proper sit-down and reading
through this countrys history on how
it moved from about half a population
of blacks in colonial times to be the
whitest South American country (97
per cent).
Elsewhere, Little Paris (Newcastle
United) have signed (yet another)
French midfielder, RmyCabella,
from Montpellier on a six-year deal.

here is a weird
trend slowly gain-
ing ground among
campus reprobates
thats giving me the
willies. It is a curious blend of
self-destruction and asininity;
an unexplainable macabre de-
sire to mutilate ones body by
perforating every single part.
Pray, why would one choose to
add 18 holes to their heads?
My old man, Grandpa Rich-
ard, can tolerate ear piercings
on a girls earlobes, but any-
thing more than that is, in his
opinion, stupid. The problem
with my comrades is that they
will be moving around with a
bakers dozen pieces of jewel-
lery on their faces, looking
like rejected prototypes from a
scrap metal yard.
Is that a dent?
These miscreants have
punched their foreheads,
pierced their dimples, punc-
tured their lips, jammed a
screw-driver
through their
tongues and
inserted a gre-
nade pin inside
their noses.
The mutilation,
which happens
among both
genders, does not
end there. Comrades have also
adorned themselves with nip-
ple rings, belly button studs
and vile genital piercings. Its
disgraceful, disgusting, and a
crime against nature!
During my time, we dug
holes on the farm, not on our
bodies. We planted cassava in
the holes we had dug, not an
entire assortment of hoops,
bolts, forks and nuts, narrates
Grandpa Richard.

comrades claim they are driven
by the desire to be unique and
express themselves. Being
unique is one thing, but mak-

another. Besides, you prob-

really wanted to be dierent

nipple and read a newspaper

I am an early riser; by 5am I am usually
awake have my moment with my maker
then perform my morning personal clean-
ing and leave for school or to look for pieces
which my clients want. I am also a personal
assistant to one of my clients and that
keeps me on my toes all day.
What would you say was your dening mo-
ment in the industry?
Well, when I was contacted by Kenya
Fashion Awards and notied that I had been
nominated for this years upcoming Fashion
Awards in August, I knew I was part of the
crme de la crme.
Also, being called up by my mentor,
Jimmy Gait, to work for him seemed like my
dreams have become a reality.
Who was the rst celebrity you styled?
Were you nervous?
[Laughs] I have been condent with most
of my clients but with my rst celebrity I
was more than nervous. I was thinking of
taking seles with him rather than focusing
on the main job.
So, as youre styling these people, what
goes through your mind? Do you already
know how you want them to look, or do you
just feed o of dierent things?
Actually, I usually dont have anything
specic in mind. I listen to what they would
love to dress in and work with that. I have
a good knowledge of the colour chart so
picking what suits my clients comes almost
naturally. [Laughs] and I dont sweat it.
Who inspires your sense of style?
David Gandy, Pharrell Williams, Robin
Thicke, Colin Farrell and Jack Dorsey... the
list is endless.
Can you describe your style in one word?
Sharp.
Who in Kenya would really like to style?
I think Jaguar would be a dream come
true.
With the cold weather here, what trends
should we be on the lookout for?
Blazers, trench coats with scarves, slim
suits all day.
What would you say are must-have
pieces for any college student since you are
also a student?
Well, Ill speak for the gentlemen: a blazer,
good shoes, I would prefer oxfords with
matching belts; nice brightly-coloured shirts,
two or three nice ones and great pants.
Throughout your career in fashion, what
would you say has been the best advice
youve received?
Someone once told me this when I started:
be exposed, be patient and remain humble. I
live by these wise words.
What advice do you have for those inter-
ested in breaking into the industry and
becoming stylists?
Id say the same thing, be exposed and go
beyond your comfort zone.
You are known as a celebrity stylist among
other things, in ve to 10 years, what do you
hope to be known as?
Well, I am lifes fashion design student. Id
want to have an all-round fashion business
which focuses on design, styling and also

Cyrus last year, Robin Thickes (Left) dress

ZuQka: What do you do
and what type of clientle
do you work with?

stylist and a finance student at
Mount Kenya University. I work with
fashion models for agencies like High Class
Modelling Agency and Baeside Modelling
Agency as their fashion stylist during
shoots and fashion events. I am also
a celebrity fashion stylist. I currently
work with celebrities like Jimmy Gait,
SOC and others.
At what age did you realise you
wanted to be in the fashion industry?
When I was 16 and in high school, I
discovered that I could actually ven-
ture into the fashion industry and get
paid to do what I love most dress-
ing people.
I realised that Italy was not the only
place you could study fashion and
become a fashion designer.
What is the best thing about your
job and whats the hardest part?
The best part of my job would
be travelling and being exposed
to dierent cultures, dierent
people with very exquisite back-
grounds and who actually tend to
motivate me. The hardest part Id
say is time.
Time is a big challenge because I
tend to be on call 24 hours a day.
There are times I am expected to
leave school work for shows and
jobs, which can take more than
a day.
People have specic tastes and
preferences so trying to con-
vince a client to look beyond
this is sometimes a hassle.

it... heres some news for you: Rogers,
and every other stylist who has made it
locally, internationally or universally, is just
as ordinary as you are. However, they chose
to look past their limitations and followed
a dream they had. Look at Eileen Ford, for
example. She started out as a model, became
a fashion photographers secretary, a fashion
stylist, fashion reporter for The Tobe Report
and eventually started The Ford Agency
with her husband Gerald. Their company
was in a bad location, and the model they
used, who propelled them to their rst major

T
he World Cup is
over. Hooray! go
the women. Damn!
the men scream.
The orgy is over,
the lights are out,
the cleaners have done their job
yet the men still wont let go.
They are still staring at the TV
sets watching some rematch and
Googling pictures of the German
team jetting back home.
The hearts are lonely, yes. We
knew after Germany lifted the
trophy that it was all over but it
still feels like we werent ready,
like we were duped. Same feeling
you get when you are on vacation
in some exotic place and then
the time to leave comes. All you
have are memories and Facebook
photos, many photos but even
looking at them feels at.
This is January all over again.
Christmas is over and you know
what that means: too many
empty wallets and all everyone
has left are the memories.
For all the non-football watch-
ing wives and girlfriends, if he is
still awake at 2am and just star-
ing at the screen, understand
that he is going through a dif-
cult time.
If he stops making conversa-
tion at 10pm, its because his
brain is still wired to soccer. Help
him by also just shutting up.
Really, it is the little things that
make all the dierence.
But Brazils World Cup was
more than just soccer; there were
always gorgeous women lling
the screen who would jump in
ecstasy when they saw them-
selves on the giant screens in the
stadium.
Then the images of the chil-
dren bawling their eyes out just
because their team lost. I really
laughed at them, and yet, I en-
vied them a bit as well. For them,
Brazil or Argentina losing was
the most heartbreaking thing
they hadwitnessed in life. Lady
life mustve been looking at them
and whispering, I am just get-
ting started.
So, to the cameramen, thank
you for making soccer enjoyable,
for the many new friends I made
in clubs while watching the game,
yeah, I dont remember you and
probably wont say hi when we
meet, but those were some really
good times.
In contrast, the women are
happy, ecstatic actually, but they
are not necessarily happy about
the end of the tournament; they
know that from now on, you can-
not show up at home every day
at 1 am and say that youre just
from watching soccer, no. Now
they have you back on a leash.
Many of you spent a combined
six days at home the last ve
weeks and you knew you could
do whatever you wished because
you had the perfect excuse and
alibi. Just get home and talk
about how your team, Bosnia, al-
most won and she would just roll
her eyes and go back to bed.
Now that that excuse is over
and while the English Premier
League starts in under a month,
they know the matches end at the
same time as the 9pm news so if
you are not home exactly 30 min-
utes after that, you are in more
trouble than the 14-year-old boy
from Marakwet who is alleged
to have made six girls preganant
and, are you ready, a teacher.
At 14, most of us were just try-
ing to make it through the day
without crying from being bullied
in Form One. Did this kid even
know the World Cup was on?
Here we were celebrating Ger-
many yet the dude was all over
scoring seven goals just like Ger-
many so I guess he was holding
his own tournament.
Think about how his parents
received the news? Hid mom
must be very ashamed but what
about his dad? Does he look at
his son and pet him on his head
or does he think, Damn, I do not
have seven kids at 60.
And the teacher? She risks
being red and arrested. How
did word that she is carrying the
boys child get out? I know the
six girls probably snitched on
him when they were asked but
did she also look around and say
it was he?
Is she married? Will she blame
the World Cup for making him
abandon her? But how did she
end up in the arms of a 14-year-
old? You know what, lets just get
back to soccer.
So, dear women, the men are
back in the lair for another four
years; take advantage of that. As
for the soccer-mad dudes and
dudettes, see you in July 2018
in Russia.
Start saving, I would want to
go visit Russia and see Crimea
in all its glory. Will Kenya be in
Russia? Of course they will, if the
president pays for their tickets
again.
I knew the World Cup was
successful when I received a
text from my mother asking me
which team we were support-
ing and when I told her Germany,
her next question was What col-
our are their jerseys? and then
she fell asleep on the couch and
woke to see my team celebrat-
ing. God bless her.
World Cup 2014, you rocked!
Now the long road to recovery.

I am an early riser; by 5am I am usually
awake have my moment with my maker
then perform my morning personal clean-
ing and leave for school or to look for pieces
which my clients want. I am also a personal
assistant to one of my clients and that
keeps me on my toes all day.
What would you say was your dening mo-
ment in the industry?
Well, when I was contacted by Kenya
Fashion Awards and notied that I had been
nominated for this years upcoming Fashion
Awards in August, I knew I was part of the
crme de la crme.
Also, being called up by my mentor,
Jimmy Gait, to work for him seemed like my
dreams have become a reality.
Who was the rst celebrity you styled?
Were you nervous?
[Laughs] I have been condent with most
of my clients but with my rst celebrity I
was more than nervous. I was thinking of
taking seles with him rather than focusing
on the main job.
So, as youre styling these people, what
goes through your mind? Do you already
know how you want them to look, or do you
just feed o of dierent things?
Actually, I usually dont have anything
specic in mind. I listen to what they would
love to dress in and work with that. I have
a good knowledge of the colour chart so
picking what suits my clients comes almost
naturally. [Laughs] and I dont sweat it.
Who inspires your sense of style?
David Gandy, Pharrell Williams, Robin
Thicke, Colin Farrell and Jack Dorsey... the
list is endless.
Can you describe your style in one word?
Sharp.
Who in Kenya would really like to style?
I think Jaguar would be a dream come
true.
With the cold weather here, what trends
should we be on the lookout for?
Blazers, trench coats with scarves, slim
suits all day.
What would you say are must-have
pieces for any college student since you are
also a student?
Well, Ill speak for the gentlemen: a blazer,
good shoes, I would prefer oxfords with
matching belts; nice brightly-coloured shirts,
two or three nice ones and great pants.
Throughout your career in fashion, what
would you say has been the best advice
youve received?
Someone once told me this when I started:
be exposed, be patient and remain humble. I
live by these wise words.
What advice do you have for those inter-
ested in breaking into the industry and
becoming stylists?
Id say the same thing, be exposed and go
beyond your comfort zone.
You are known as a celebrity stylist among
other things, in ve to 10 years, what do you
hope to be known as?
Well, I am lifes fashion design student. Id
want to have an all-round fashion business
which focuses on design, styling and also
cover
Despite his impertinent dance with Miley
Cyrus last year, Robin Thickes (Left) dress
sense has been copied, thousands, if not
millions of times, for the simple reason
that IT WORKS! And shocks! And is simply
pleasing to the eye. Dont believe us? Just
Google him. Any wonder, then, that our
Rogers takes pointers from him albeit
remotely. Rogers, who could be a nominee

unquestionable taste.

to name just a few. We get him
to open up about how he broke
into the fashion industry,
his favourite latest trends,
fashion no-nos, his styling
career thus far and hopes

ZuQka: What do you do
and what type of clientle
do you work with?
Roger: I am a Kenyan fashion
stylist and a finance student at
Mount Kenya University. I work with
fashion models for agencies like High Class
Modelling Agency and Baeside Modelling
Agency as their fashion stylist during
shoots and fashion events. I am also
a celebrity fashion stylist. I currently
work with celebrities like Jimmy Gait,
SOC and others.
At what age did you realise you
wanted to be in the fashion industry?
When I was 16 and in high school, I
discovered that I could actually ven-
ture into the fashion industry and get
paid to do what I love most dress-
ing people.
I realised that Italy was not the only
place you could study fashion and
become a fashion designer.
What is the best thing about your
job and whats the hardest part?
The best part of my job would
be travelling and being exposed
to dierent cultures, dierent
people with very exquisite back-
grounds and who actually tend to
motivate me. The hardest part Id
say is time.
Time is a big challenge because I
tend to be on call 24 hours a day.
There are times I am expected to
leave school work for shows and
jobs, which can take more than
a day.
People have specic tastes and
preferences so trying to con-
vince a client to look beyond
this is sometimes a hassle.
What is your typical day like?

ASK CINDY
Dear Cindy,
There is a girl I am deeply in love
with, but she insists I am just infatu-
ated. How can I convince her ?
Joseph
There is nothing much you can do
if she does not believe you, but you
could be patient with her. Do not let
your bruised pride get in the way of
potential love nobody likes being
rejected which is probably what
is bothering you. It happens to the
best of us. Be by her side without
appearing like a stalker, give her a
call once in a while, ask her out for a
treat but if she says no, do not insist.
If she says yes to your treats, do not
make it look like a date, so let it be
in a relaxed setting; you could even
invite friends. If she still does not be-
lieve you, just move on and prepare
your heart for somebody who can
return your love. All the best.
Dear Cindy,
My girlfriend left me a few months
ago. I really loved her so it hurt
me. I sort of recovered and fell in
love with another girl, who agreed
to marry me, but eight months
later, she wants to leave me. I do
not want to lose her, what do I do?
James
I am so sorry about that. Losing one
woman you love is hard enough,
two must be extremely hard. But do
not despair, some people have had
it worse and they have made great
comebacks. What you should do is
stop rushing love. Do not look for
it because a lot of times when you
look for it, it runs very fast, or comes
dressed as a sheep while it really is
a leopard. Take your time and heal,
make peace with yourself, realise
that there is nothing wrong with
you, that you just have not found
the right person, and perhaps you
should stop being too serious with
relationships too soon. Try making
friends before you make lovers. All
the best.

The rift between Kenyas
metal and rock fans was made
ocial a long time ago. In fact,
it was preceded by several on-
line wars during which bands
were picked and musical tastes
apportioned. It was fun back
then but of course at the end
of the day we all still expected
everyone to turn up at everyone
elses gig.
That slowly stopped happen-
ing. Over my sentient years of
observing rock event attend-
ances in Kenya, in Nairobi to be
precise, it has been evident that
metal fans are very rare to spot
at rock gigs and rock fans are
rare at metal gigs. But the last
Ward 7 event was an exception.
This time a good number of
rockers, to my surprise, turned
up for the first time.
Maybe it was the loca-
tion, or maybe it was
the fact that Rash
was playing.
Most popular
metal event
What is Ward
7? you ask. It
is Kenyas most
popular metal event
(and by popular I
mean it actually packs
the house). The event
started sometime in 2012
and after two well-
attended shows
whose reputa-
tions were marred
by managerial con-
fusion, it came to
a halt. So when
it resumed this
year, I wanted
to know what had
changed. A lot had
in fact changed, as it
turned out.
The gig was no longer
being held at a dingy hotel
on Koinange Street with
poor air circulation. It was
held at Secrets Lounge, and
this time there was actually a
sound technician.
As much as it has been
sold as a metal concert, the
bands playing that night were
anything but metal. Rash and
DEOWA were the acts for the
night. Rash is a hard rock act
and DEOWA are more experi-
mental and alternative.
As expected, Rash delivered
their magical hard rock glory
without disappointing (except
for the earlier delay in setting
up).
When I arrived for the show,
I was not the noisemaker I
have always been at most rock
shows in the past. I was nally
coming to terms with the fact
that I dont really know eve-
ryone on the scene anymore.
Sixteen thousand followers on
the Kenya Rock fans group on
Facebook did hint that there
has been a signicant spurt
of growth in our fanbase. So I
was ready to meet some new
characters and new characters
I did meet.
The most memorable of
them was a pair of chicks who
appeared like they had been
invited to an occult santeria
meeting. One of them was
called Crazy at least that is
how she was introduced to me
and the others name was
not crazy enough for me to
remember.
They had this gothic attitude
about them that screamed
Spooky! At one point, Crazy
and her friend sat down and be-
gan reading each others palms
then making proclamations
about each others future. This
was not a girl-talk session sea-
soned with pubescent giggles.
They were dead serious. I took
this as my cue to rove towards
another corner of the club.
When the performances
were over, DJ Vick
stepped in with his
unassuming female
protg to lay down
some mixes of rock
and metal. An hour
later, the rock had
disappeared and it
was all metal.
Ward 7 was starting
to sound and feel a lot
more familiar to what I can
recall in 2012. For some reason,
the new Ward 7 felt to me like
metalheads were cleaning up
and coming out of the
shell to own their
scene.
There was less
fracas and over-
indulgence and
more interaction
with bands. Its a
good change and I
can only hope there
will be actual metal
bands next time.

Q. Theatre or screen?
A. Theatre, denitely. The dynamics of the
stage are out of this world. On stage, you
and the audience feed o each other. You
get instant review and nothing compares
to that. You also get a chance to discuss the
performance or message with the audience.

Q. Directing or acting?
A. I cant pick one. They oer dierent
satisfaction but are similar, because it is like
nurturing from conception and watching
something grow enough to elicit emotions
from the audience.

Q. Do screen actors and earn enough to live
on?
A. Thats a tough one. Many production
houses can but few pay enough to allow their
actors survive solely on the payment. Some
production houses would like to but cannot,
but I hope to change all that. In ve years, I
intend to have every actor working under me
able to live comfortably even when they do
not have another side job.

BE FAMOUS.
P
eople: they come and
go. That thought has
been ringing in my
mind over the past two
months. Sometimes
when I say it to myself,
it sounds almost cheerful, like I am
trying to shrug o how much the
concept bothers me by attempting
to convince myself that I do not care.
Other times I say it with sadness,
phrasing it as a question that goes,
Why must people come and go?
Why cant they just...stay?
And that, my friends, is one of lifes
conundrums. If there is one thing I
have been ill prepared to face as a
grown up, that would be the letting
go.
Deciding when a relationship has
reached its limit and it would best, for
the sanity of all involved, to dissolve
the ties binding you and continue on
as strangers. It is funny how much
complicated it gets with time. Back
when I was 10, you broke up with
your best friend one day, made up
two days later and became mortal
enemies in a month. It was that easy
to sort through your feelings and
make a decision. It did not matter if
the person hurt you or simply had an
annoying face; in the end it was al-
ways a quick aair and as children,
we instinctively knew of our own
resilience. Knew that we would be
able to live. Not so these days. These
days breaking up with someone, be it
a friend, spouse or family member, is
an ordeal. You think about it for days
on end, all these ethos and moral
obligations coming into play until,
before you know it, you are more
twisted than a pot of sticky spaghetti.
I recently had to deal with just such
a situation when someone I have
known for a long time let me down
badly. Mind you, when I look at that
instance singularly, it was not that
bad. Worse things have happened be-
tween us. Yet when you added them
all up, it became the straw that broke
the proverbial camels back. Long
story short: tears were shed, mothers
were consulted, prayers were said,
and after all was said and done, I was
through. Finished. Dunzo.
SItya loss
Before this happened, letting go
always signied a loss, or worse,
cowardice. Now I see so many other
dynamics to the concept. Self -pres-
ervation. Bravery because as you
do it, you know in your heart it will
make you lonelier by one person.
Fear because it means embarking

take 14
on new ventures without having that
special person backing you up. And
you come to realise that the world
far from being black and white, is
painted in diering hues of vibrant,
vivid greys.
Of course we could always console
ourselves by using the out with the
old, in with the new mantra. Tell our-
selves that people will come and go,
that at some point we will nd those
willing enough to stay. Yet in most
cases, we remain reluctant and afraid,
more willing to stay in our irrepara-
bly toxic relationships than to bravely
step out of them. Who said these
things get easier with time? If any-
thing, they become harder because as
adults, everything we feared as kids
is magnied from meeting new
people to watching as someone you
once knew so well become a stranger,
not forgetting the ever looming threat
of loneliness.
Famous author John Green once
wrote, It is so hard to leave until
you leave. And then it is the easiest
damned thing in the world. He was
absolutely right.
See, when the time comes to walk
away, you just know it. Sure, there
will be sad, black days when you can
hardly get yourself out of the bed.
There will be dragged out mourning
periods. There will be days when you
wonder what is wrong with you, days
so deeply steeped in rejection that
seeing any light will be a miracle.
And then there will come the day
when you will realise that you had
just reached the end of the line. On
that day you will know relief, and -
nally, you will truly let go.

Good morning Silicon Savannah! That
would have been the perfect greeting for
our apparent thriving digital economy. Our
so called success in the digital economy
age has run on a thoroughly clichd mobile
money story. It is one of the handful of tech
success stories emerging from this market,
yet, a handful isnt a lot. The other success
stories are slowly developing, and, there have
been numerous failures that have been driven
purely by hype, a lot of poorly invested money
and many other minute issues that have been
blatantly ignored. So, what are the bloopers
we have seen so far?
Daily deals
Groupon created the perfect model for fail-
ure. Kenyans copied it. The painful misadven-
ture may have cost well past a quarter of a bil-
lion shillings in combined cash and man hours,
yet despite the relentless pursuit and market-
ing, there was less than nothing to show.
Expatriates with MBAs from some of
the most prestigious business schools were
brought in, consultants were imported to di-
agnose and oer solutions, but the whole idea
was fundamentally awed. Daily deals were
dead, customers were bored with the same
monotonous oerings and they quickly turned
their attention to other things. The single daily
deals site that survived did so with new invest-
ment and a hastily rewritten and modied
business model that appears to be working.
App stores
Imagine the horror, a mobile operator with-
out an app store.
Apparently, this became a necessity for
some regional operators in an era that was be-
ing driven by over hyped m-vitus, and so, as
logic dictated, app stores seemed like a sensi-
ble idea. The logic? There were potentially so
many smart devices, networks were becoming
faster, developers were producing apps by the
minute, so it seemed like the next natural step.
To prime the industry, there were app competi-
tions, money was shared, promises were made,
but the app stores fared horrically. For one,
app fatigue was beginning to set in, secondly,
there there were fewer smart devices in the
market than was perceived and nally, people
were getting far better apps from global app
stores.
Phablets
The name already signalled that this was a
bad idea from the start, but vanity knew no
bounds. The though of being seen without one
in an upmarket environment was far too much
for some fellows. To be seen as the real deal,
you had to be seen with an exceptional device,
and in this case, the device had to be noticed,
thus, the logic was to make the device excep-
tionally bigger without any real value addition,
except for a large screen. In fact, far bigger
than the palm could manage, and way bigger
than combined egos and faces. Transporting
the device was naturally the rst problem, but
more noticeable was the ridiculous image of
being seen talking into one of these monstrosi-
ties.
Blogs
This is riddled with controversy. Blogs have
actually been quite successful. A decade ago.
The original sets of bloggers have long retired.
They had standards and ideals that are long
lost in todays blogosphere. Today, blogs are
walking advertisements. They might as well
be product catalogues for retailers. Well, not
really just retailers, some peddle gutter press
content. Where did they fail?
Consumerism and politics. Bloggers now
command prices to attack other bloggers
and sell political ideals, products, gossip, and
the occasional hate speech. Real articulated
criticism went the way of the dodo, along with
sensibility and reality. Being featured on a blog
today is almost always in relation to bad news.
Ebooks
Book retailers were slightly bothered when
tablets and eReaders started entering the
market. Independent authors saw a wonderful
opportunity to publish their books and cut out
very many middlemen.
They had seen the success of ebooks in
Western markets, so, in our me-too culture,
ebooks became the order of the day. However,
eReaders remained niche devices, the PDF re-
mained the de facto superhero of digital books
and all the nonsensical eReader apps were
quickly deleted in favour of going back to an
ordinary store to buy paperbacks. Book retail-
ers sighed in relief when things went sideways
for ebooks. But they too were wrong. Enter the
book street vendor.
The bloopers do not end there. We have
seen social networks, checkin apps and even
prepaid debit cards come and go in a hu.
Kenya has a long way to go before it can crown
itself king of the technology savannah, and
provided ideas remain the same, we are going
nowhere slowly.

RATING: 8.5/10
Back in the day when we were a lot
younger and never dreamt of gaming
aptitudes to the graphical superiority
of now next generation consoles; we
had Street Fighter. Played for the most
part on cartridges, this treasure from
the guys at Capcom has transcended
time and evolved into a beautiful
video game, much up to speed with
the newer combat video games in the
gaming market.
The modications in Ultra Street Fighter
are as audacious as they are thor-
oughly exhilarating. The most excel-
lent changes lie amid the understated
aspects of this video game. Characters
such as Dudley, Rufus and Yun to name
but a few are puckered up, spruced
with a little tweaking of the earlier
goofs leaving a fresh, formidable feel to
almost all of the now fourty four com-
bative characters.
This game comes at a perfect time
when Ryu and Ken feature heavily in
the Street Fighter Assassin series on tel-
evision. The game responds really well
to control commands from the gamer.
Ultra Street Fighter 4 takes an already
established video game and thrusts it
into the new age and is a must have for
any fan of Street Fighter.

Rating: 8/10
Category: Science Fiction
Release Date: April 18th, 2014
Length: 1 hour 59 minutes
Director: Wally Plster
Main Actors:
Johnny Depp as Dr. Will Caster
Rebecca Hall as Evelyn Caster
Paul Bettany as Max Walters
Kate Mara as Bree, the leader of RIFT
The main dierence between human beings and
computers is that human beings have free will
while computers are just servants. The other
dierence is that humans make mistakes while
computers dont unless the mistakes were
made by the human that built them.
So what happens when a human being adopts
the mind of a computer? In a word: Transcend-
ence. This is what Dr Will Caster, the rst scientist
to discover how to program an animals soul into
a computer, experiences when his wife Evelyn
tries to do the same to his soul.
After Caster is attacked by an undercover terror
group that opposed his work he nds himself
infected by a strain of radiation that leaves him
with ve weeks to live. To save him, Evelyn uses
Casters very own invention to rescue his soul
but the result is something beyond her control,
something slightly dierent from what she knew
as a husband.
Ultimately, factions are created as Evelyn Caster
has to choose between following her husband or
his research partner Max Walters who believes
that Caster has turned rogue and is trying to con-
trol the entire world.
Transcendence is a science ction tale of epic
proportions. Not only does it perfectly keep
in touch with the most current and pertinent
interests of the technology scene today, but it
transcends to paint a picture of where that tech-
nology may lead us, addressing both the tragic
possibilities and the good ones.

ARTISTS: WILLY PAUL & SIZE 8
How many times have you
been at a party where you only
know one person and ended
up sitting at a corner gloomy
and depressed?
Spotting a new audacious
hairdo, the stunning enigma
that is Size 8 teams up with
Gospel star Willy Paul to con-
vey to their fans, what was
to us, one of the funniest but
simultaneously rational mes-
sages through this music video
charred with a lot of famous
faces. Willy Paul makes a
hilarious third wheel as he me-
anders through the crowds of
couples trying to t in.
Eventually, DJ Mo grudgingly
lets him pull his wife aside to
let her help him nd answers
to his solitude. Size 8 does
provide some decent counsel
because at the end of it all,
Willy seems content with be-
ing alone. A few things stood
out in this video; the brilliant
wardrobe selection; the loca-
tion and setting where this
video was shot.
The stars here look radiant.
The party setting is such a
good way to pass the message
that you dont have to be see-
ing someone, anyone; to be
happy.
The video showed some
excellent quality. Camera work
was good; in particular, when
they would pan the cameras
to land on someone while fad-
ing out the character on the
screen.
This is a must-watch for any
fans of these two gifted artists.

When Danny (Chris DElia) Butons
roommate Shannon moves out to get mar-
ried, he leaves Danny a contact to get a
new roommate to share house costs with.
The new roommate turns out to be Justin,
a guy who loves singing and the owner of
a bar called Black Eyes (that almost eve-
rybody mispronounces as Black Guys).
He has a bunch of really quirky friends
who hang out at his bar: tall and geeky
Burski (Rick Glassman), a round gured
Shelly (Ron Funches) who sees himself
as the ultimate stud but has been having
problems with conversing to the ladies,
and a recently out of the closet gay Brett
(David Fynn) who is still nding his cour-
age in his new lifestyle.
Justin does not fare better either, and
has problems approaching his bar tender,
Nicki (Briga Heelan), whom he likes but
can only fantasise about approaching
her. Well, they are in luck. Or so the 30-
something-year-old Danny would have
them believe that he can turn them from
undateables into fully functioning re-
lationship magnets. With his sister Leslie
(Bianca Kajlich) in tow, he seeks to bring
happiness to this hapless group.
Finally, top standup comic Chris DElia
has a television show to call his own after
being a feature on NBCs multi-camera
show Whitney that starred Whitney
Cummings. The show is totally hilarious
and has also been getting great reviews
from most television critic sites. Its an
enjoyable show and it is refreshing to see
Chris do his thing and maintain his funny,
while not be laughing o at his jokes all
the time. His supporting cast are by no
means just bystanders and especially
funny is Ron Funches whose expressions
and witty lines are piercing even to his
friends.

Message from the
Chief Principal
I
t gives me great pleasure to welcome you
all to the 2014 Graduation Ceremony. The
institute was established by leaders of the
then Rift Valley Province led by H.E. Daniel T.
arap Moi, the Second President of Kenya.
These leaders envisaged to develop
an institution that would promote the
advancement of education of the youth and
the overall development of the region and
country at large. Since its inception in 1979, the
institute has continually grown and developed
from 78 students to 5,445 today.
The graduation ceremony is the culmination
of the many sacrices and efforts made by
the graduands, staff, families and sponsors in
the pursuit of academic excellence. This great
achievement brings great joy and pride to the
graduands, family, friends, staff and all the
stakeholders who have been involved in shaping
the academic destiny and overall growth and
development of the graduates.
This year, the institute will graduate a
total of 1,273 students compared to 1,000 in
2013. These students will be awarded Higher
National Diplomas, Diplomas and Certicates.
This achievement is attributed to hard work,
teamwork, discipline and commitment of
students, staff and other stakeholders.
As of now, the institute has two campuses
and offers a wide range of courses at Higher
National Diploma, Diploma, Certicate level. The
institute has been earmarked for an upgrade
and will soon be training in degree programmes
as provided in the TVET Act 2013.
In line with the TVET ACT 2013, the institute
has embraced competency-based curriculum
and market-driven courses aimed at providing
knowledge, skills and attitude to develop human
resource for the actualization of Vision 2030.
We have partnered with Rongai Constituency
Development Fund to design tailor-made
courses for the purpose of empowering youth
in technical skills, entrepreneurship and ICT
among others. These courses are designed
to increase access to TVET education and
generate employment opportunities.
The Institute is committed to academic
excellence and provision of quality and
relevant technical education as envisaged
in our Vision, Mission Statement and Core
Values. The performance of the Institute
in national examinations has shown an
improving trend within the last six years.
This is evidenced by the registration of a
record of 25 student attaining Distinctions in
their disciplines of study and the majority of
our students attaining over all credit. This
makes RVIST a shining star among technical
institutions in the country.
This good performance is attributed to
the boards prudent guidance and strategic
planning. The management and staff have
put in measures to sustain and improve our
academic performance.
The institute in conjunction with the
ministry, board and other stakeholders have
embarked on the modernization, expansion
and improvement of infrastructure of
the institute. This strategy has led to
the construction of ultra modern tuition,
administration, science laboratories
and ablution block, state-of-the-art ICT
equipment and ICT Centre. Currently, the
board is putting up a modern library complex
with a digital centre.
The Institute is now ISO 9001:2008 QMS
certied. This quality management tool and
the embracing of performance contract
has transformed the institute into a quality
training institute.
The Board and Management is committed
towards improving the Infrastructure of the
Institute as planned in our strategic plan
2013/2017 launched in April 2013. The Board
plans to put up a modern library, chapel,
hostel, upgrade equipment and transport
and open Satellite Campuses in strategic
towns in Rift Valley. We also plan to establish
small-scale industries related to our training,
set up a ve-star hotel, shopping complex,
and town campus near Nakuru Town.
The Institute has churned out many
graduands since its inception in 1979.
The majority of these alumni are playing
important roles in public and private sectors.
The Alumni have held senior positions in the
Government as MPs, Ministers, Governors
and senior university faculty among others.
The Institute has rolled out Alumni Chapters
in major towns in the country and diaspora.
And we encourage our Alumni to register as
members and participate in its activities.
Message from the Chairman
Board of Management
On behalf of the board of management,
it is my earnest delight to welcome our
chief Guest of Honour His Exellency
Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi CGH, second
president of the republic of Kenya, dis-
tinguished guests, stakeholders and staff
and students to our 9th graduation cer-
emony
I wish to congratulate the graduands for
their sterling perfomances achieved by
their hard work, discipline, devotion and
sacrices in their academic journey which
has culminated in the graduation that we
commemorate today. I wish to encourage
our to work extra hard and further their
education in order to surpass the out-
standing records of their predecessors.
Our distinguished guests, the graduands
have been trained and gained the requi-
site knowledge, skills and attitudes and
now gearing up to play a signicant role
in the realization of Vision 2030.
They have been equipped in various
courses like Sciences, technology, innova-
tion and entrepreneurial skills and now
have the capacity to deliver private, pub-
lic and as well establish own businesses
as future entrepreneurs.
Rift Valley Institute of Science and Tech-
nology is proud of the many alumni who
have distinguished themselves as schol-
ars, renowned entrepreneurs in diverse
industries and have held senior positions
in the leadership of both County and na-
tional governments.
On behalf of the management, I wish to
acknowledge and appreciate government
partnership with the board of trustees
in the development of human and in-
frastructural capacities if this Institute.
I hail the government for providing the
funds and the lecturers who have been
very instrumental in provision of quality
training.
Message from
H.E. Daniel arap Moi,
Patron and Second
President of the
Republic of Kenya on
the 2014 Graduation
Ceremony.
I wish to salute the
graduands for successful
completion of their studies in
this Institution. I am indeed
pleased to ofciate awarding
of Diplomas and Certicates
to 1273 graduands. This
achievement is attributed to
the Almighty God who has
given strength to the students,
staff, and the parents in pursuit of their endeavours.
As you graduate from this institution and join the rest of
Kenyans in nation building, I wish to advise you that you will
encounter a number of challenges which are diverse and you
may not face them alone as an individual. You must rst and
foremost put Almighty God as a priority in your life and seek
Him in every situation for his grace is exceedingly sufcient.
I wish to note that your parents, staff, community and
government have invested heavily by equipping you with the
relevant knowledge, skills and attitude. These virtues have
provided you with solid foundation to be able to support
yourself, society and the nation at large for now and the
future. The knowledge acquired in the process of your
training in this institution should be directed positively in the
interest of self Nation and mankind in view of the emerging
global challenges.
Technical Education is one of the most effective human
resource development strategies that we need to embrace
in order to train and modernize technical workforce for rapid
industrialization and national development. In line with that,
the Founders and Trustees of Rift Valley Institute of Science
and Technology had a vision to set up technical college that
would empower the youths with the requisite knowledge,
skills and attitudes. This vision targeted generation of
employment opportunities, reduction of poverty and bring
overall development to rural areas and its residence.
I trust that establishment of more technical institutions in
our country will signicantly boost economic and spur over
all development of rural areas and the country. I urge the
government to put more resources and give more support to
technical institutions since the youths constitute the majority
of Kenyan population. This large constituency of Kenyan
population requires to be addressed by the government
through supporting education with the much needed
infrastructure, equipment and trained Human Resource.
The emerging economies of the East have utilized technical
Education as a spring board to rapid Industrialization and
national development.
As we expand and reform technical education in Kenya,
we need to take into cognizance of quality, competence,
demand driven programmes and integration of ICT in the
training. These efforts will none the less produce the skilled
manpower needed to drive the Government Vision 2030 and
beyond.
In conclusion I wish to appeal to the Board of Rift Valley
Institute of Science and Technology and all the stakeholders
to prudently plan for the future of the students and the
college. The management need to think afresh and out of
the box in order to be in a position to provide solutions,
transformational and visionary leadership for the 21st
century. Lastly I call upon the Board and Management to be
creators of wealth and knowledge and not more consumers
of the same.
I wish to emphasize that the Middle Level Colleges have
been identied as the prime movers in transforming the
economy and development. This has been demonstrated
by economies of the East who have harvested the benets
of technical education as a spring board as economic giants
of the world. Towards that end, the Government of Kenya
should be cautious in converting technical Institutions to
general Public Universities.
