Education, p. 6
trans-county trip from Eldoret

in Uasin Gishu through Iten
in Elgeyo-Marakwet to Kabarnet in Baringo is breathtaking. One
traverses varied climate, topography
and vegetation, from the cool Iten to
the hot Marakwet across highlands,
valleys and escarpments.
Iten Town is announced by several
athletes training and a prominent
signboard that says: Welcome to
Iten, the home of champions. Then
one goes downhill, westwards on the
tarmacked Iten-Kabarnet road with
its spectacular twists and turns as it
winds through escarpments, providing perfect views of the magnicent
Kerio Valley in the Great Rift Valley
and its spectacular natural landmarks.
A short distance away is Iten View
Point. This is a must-stop point
where the scenic Kerio Valley a
valley within a valley that includes
escarpments, hills, forested slopes,
the thin thread of River Kerio meandering through it and the seasonal
Lake Kamnarok unveils itself.
Towards Cheptebo, the climate
and vegetation change. The intense
heat and thorny bush, mainly acacia
and Balanites aegyptiaca, a medicinal tree also known as Desert Date,
welcome one to the semi-arid
Elgeyo-Marakwet. There are scattered homes but the indigenous
vegetation has not been interfered
with a lot and it provides a peaceful,
rustic environment.
Tucked in this bush is the AIC
Cheptebo Rural Development Centre. Sitting on a 50-acre parcel of
land in Keiyo South Sub-County, it
is a one-hour drive from Eldoret,
33km from Iten to the west, 20km
from Kabarnet to the east and is
also accessible through the EldoretKabarnet road.
TEACHERS WANT NEW

SUBJECTS FOR SCHOOLS
MARIA WAMBUA | NATION
The writer (with booklet) at the AIC Cheptebo Rural Development Centre.
A perfect balance of simplicity and
good, aordable facilities with very
friendly sta and four conference
halls with a capacity of 250 people
are just a few qualities of the centre.
It also has fullboard accommodation for 100 guests with standard
to superior rooms, family-friendly
two- and three-bedroom cottages,
a 400-seater ultra-modern chapel
ideal for fellowships and retreats and
a spacious dining hall where guests
are served a fresh , homegrown food
from the demonstration farm.
Beautifully landscaped
The beautifully landscaped compound has open-air gardens where

guests can enjoy the coolness of tree
shades and a breeze in the warm climate, amid the singing of birds.
Established in 1986 by British missionary Bill Rettie, the centre oers
agricultural training on its demonstration farm that has more than
50,000 grafted mango seedlings. It
also hosts medical camps and youth
empowerment programmes.
When Mr Rettie left the country in
2003 for London, Mr Joseph Kimeli

took over as the centres director.
Mr Kimeli notes that due to ignorance, local people were previously
taken advantage of by brokers and
would sell their cattle for as low as
Sh5,000 each, but as a result of the
awareness created through the centres programmes, a cow sells for as
much as Sh50,000. The centre does
not rely on donations thanks to its
income-generating activities.
The centre has lived up to its name
Cheptebo, which in the local language
means a place of rest. One can also
visit attractions such as Kerio Valley
National Reserve, Cherangany Hills,
Kipteber Mountain, Rimoi Game
Reserve, Kerio Valley, River Kerio
(including the amazing deep and
narrow Chebloch Gorge at Chebloch
Bridge), and Iten, a sports tourism
destination.
Cultural delicacies in the county
include the famous traditionally
fermented milk known as mursik,
honey and tamarind juice prepared
by dissolving tamarind fruit pulp
in water.
Teachers want the new school curriculum to address child

rights, drug abuse, integrity, security and safety. According to a
needs assessment report released last week, teachers also want
environmental issues, technology, gender issues and nancial
literacy be part of the syllabus.

afaricom Chief Executive Bob

Collymore married his long-time
partner, Ms Wambui Kamiru,
at an invite-only purple and white
themed ceremony in Nairobi at the
weekend.
Mr Collymore, who has been at the
helm of Safaricom since 2010, wed
Ms Kamiru at a private residence
in Kitisuru, an upmarket suburb in
Nairobi.
The couple have not issued a public statement on their marriage, but
reports indicated that the wedding
took place on Saturday, even though
pictures from the reception only surfaced and were shared widely on social
media yesterday.
The bride is the founder of The Art
Space, an independent commercial art
gallery situated on Riverside Drive,
Nairobi, according to her website.
According to her blog, Ms Kamirus
work revolves around developing
artwork on the theme of colonialism, identity and independence in
Africa.
Photographs show the couple beaming with joy. Mr Collymore wore a
white, casual, collarless linen suit
while the bride stunned in a simple,
knee-length sheath dress.
This is the second marriage for
the two, who have reportedly been
dating for a number of years and
have attended many social functions
together.

The agency said 1,604 driving

Postal Corporation for non-collection
at the post oces.
According to recent data published
by NTSA on its website, 51 of the
uncollected logbooks are for government-owned vehicles, some of which
were allocated to ministries and departments in the previous government
system.

His marriage to an artist took him

Invited guests included Attorney
General Githu Muigai, radio personality Caroline Mutoko, Kenya Film
Commissions Chris Foot, musician Juliani, and talk show host Je

More than 100 of the logbooks are

for heavy duty trailers while most of
the documents are for privately owned
vehicles.
At 794, Nairobi has the highest
number of uncollected driving licences,
a 49.5 per cent of the total; Nakuru has
259 while Naivasha has the smallest
number of uncollected licences, two.
In October 2014, the postman returned more than 4,000 uncollected
licences and logbooks to NTSA, with
Director-General Francis Meja appealing to owners to collect them. However,
the situation has not changed much,
with only 179 driving licences and
logbooks collected since.
There are also reports of uncollected
driving licences at a number of driving
schools, with some dating back to 2014.
The trend has been blamed mainly on
negligence by the owners, who have
met all requirements and cleared all
necessary charges.
Currently, the documents are collected at regional oces of the Kenya
Revenue Authority.
Eorts to get a comment from NTSA
ocials on the matter bore no fruit as
the calls went unanswered.

senior Kakamega County

Government ocial was
arrested yesterday in connection with the violence that
erupted at the launch of Bungoma
Senator Moses Wetangulas presidential bid at Muliro Gardens on
Saturday.
County
Commissioner
Kangethe Thuku said investigations linked Mr Nabii Nabwera,
the devolved units Chief of Sta
and aide of Governor Wyclie
Oparanya, to the fracas. He is
currently in police custody for
questioning, Mr Thuku told the
Nation.
This brings to three, the number
of people arrested in connection
with the incident that saw teargas
hurled at the dais moments before
Mr Wetangula gave his speech.
Mr Nabwera was reportedly
arrested in Webuye and taken
for questioning to the Western
region police headquarters in
Kakamega.
Mr Thuku had on Saturday
warned that rm action would
be taken against the architects
of the chaos.
Despite the treatment, believed
to have been occasioned by ODM
supporters, the Ford Kenya leader
yesterday said the chaos will not
disintegrate the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (Cord).
The chaos, that left two people critically injured, was sparked
after two youths chanting proOparanya slogans hurled teargas
at the dais. But Mr Wetangula,

The Saturday incident has
now sent Cord leaders into defence mode in attempts to avert
fears of a possible fallout in the
coalition.
Mr Wetangula, when asked to
explain why Mr Odinga failed to
attend the launch, said: He is the
one to answer that question when
he comes back from Tanzania.
Raila informed us he will join us
but he did not come.
Mr Wetangula went on, The
launch was a big day for the Luhya
community and me in particular.
I dont want to be a prophet of
doom. As Cord, come what may,
we have an agreement that we
shall walk together all the way,
Mr Wetangula said he wondered how the suspects got hold

of the teargas. Mr Oparanya also
skipped the launch, while Mr
Musyoka delivered Mr Odingas
apologies.
And in Mr Odingas defence,
Nyando MP Fred Outa said they
had planned to attend the fete.
We were informed of rising tension and opted to land in Kisumu.
We sat at the airport for two hours
to monitor the situation and later

the governor did not attend the

Firimbi drive
to push for
change, say
ODM leaders
BY BENSON MATHEKA
ODM leaders who blew whistles in
Parliament during President Kenyattas State of the Nation address last
Thursday have vowed to use a new
movement to push for reforms in
the country.
The lawmakers said yesterday they
had formed the Firimbi movement
to awaken Kenyans.
This is a team of change. It is
a team that took courage to blow
whistles in Parliament to let the
President know that the country
requires change. It is the start of
Firimbi movement. We will blow
whistles everywhere, said Dagoretti
North MP Simba Arati.
He accused the President of leaving
the management of the country to
Jubilee MPs and advisers, who have
been misleading him.
He needed to be awakened. They
have torn the economy and unity of
Kenyans and we cant accept, he
said at the United Christian Church
in Kawangware, Nairobi.
Other lawmakers at the service
were ODM chairman John Mbadi, Ruaraka MP Tom Kajwang, Ugunja MP
Opiyo Wandayi, Homa Bay Woman
Representative Gladys Wanga,
Suna East MP Junet Mohammed,
Busia Woman Representative Florence Mutua and Homa Bay Senator
Moses Kajwang.
Ms Mutua accused Jubilee leaders
of not respecting the constitution.
We gave leadership to people who
have no love for the country. We need
change and we will keep knocking,
she said.
She faulted National Assembly
Speaker Justin Muturis leadership,
accusing him of bias. Muturi deserves prayers because he is biased.
Why was Wandayi punished yet other
MPs have committed worse acts in
Parliament? she asked.
Kiraithe warns politicians

against using violence, chaos
BY ANGIRA ZADOCK
Some politicians and political
groups are using violence and
chaos as a means to achieve
their goals as the country nears
the 2017 General Election, the
Government Spokesman Eric
Kiraithe said yesterday.
Mr Kiraithe (right), warned
that stern action would be taken
against the perpetrators.
Violence and chaos cannot
be tolerated as a political tool in
any civilised society. Let those
hiding behind political positions
preaching and perpetuating violence know that they are not
above the law, he said.
Mr Kiraithe termed the Saturday attack at Kakamegas
Muliro Gardens unfortunate,
saying that while the government commiserated with those
injured in Kakamega, it also
sent a loud and clear message
to politicians using violence as
a political tool that this would
not be accepted.
Contrary to some views being
perpetuated by a section of our
political class, the government

and relevant public institutions
remain steadfast in maintaining
parity so as to avoid political
prejudice and create a level playing ground for all, he said.
Mr Kiraithe said investigations into the incident had
been launched and that those
found guilty would be charged
in court. He warned that there
appeared to be a systematic pattern of violence perpetuated by
a clique of political elements in
public places. He condemned the
disruption of business in Parliament, which he said was aimed
at scoring political points.

Justice > Hague judges will rule tomorrow on whether or not leader has case to answer
Verbatim
Ruto upbeat ahead of ICC ruling

Deputy President attends
church service at his
Eldoret base, urging
Kenyans to pray for him
BY WYCLIFF KIPSANG
wkipsang@ke.nationmedia.com
eputy President William Ruto

yesterday attended a church
service at his Eldoret home,
ahead of a crucial ruling on his nocase-to-answer application at the
International Criminal Court tomorrow.
Mr Ruto, who spoke at AIC Pioneer
Church, said he was optimistic the case
against him and radio presenter Joshua
arap Sang would be withdrawn and
called for calm ahead of the ruling.
I have no doubt whatsoever in my
mind that this issue will soon be behind
us. Just continue praying for us, said
the Deputy President without delving
much into the case. The service doubled
up as a funds drive in aid of women
groups from the region.
Mr Ruto and Mr Sang are accused
of crimes against humanity consisting of murder, deportation or forced
transfer of populations and persecution, committed during the 2007/2008
post-election violence.

ahead of the General Election, saying
everyone is assured of security.
Everybody, irrespective of tribe,
religion or party aliations, should
co-exist peacefully as one nation. We
should reject politicians who perpetuate

and manifestos which can transform

Kericho and Bomet residents

on Saturday held inter-denominational prayers for Deputy
President William Ruto and Mr
Joshua arap Sang ahead of a crucial ruling by the International
Criminal Court tomorrow.
The elderly and the youth attended the prayers, led by Pastor
Wesley Cheruiyot.
The pair, charged with committing crimes against humanity
during the 2007/8 post-election
violence, will know their fate in
the no-case-to-answer application.
If the trial chamber judges uphold their arguments and nd
that Mr Ruto and Mr Sang have
no case to answer, the crimes
against humanity charges they
are facing could be dropped.
Boito Ward United Republican Party Secretary-General
Bernard Sang said he was condent that Mr Ruto and Mr Sang
were would be acquitted.
God is on our side and we are
looking forward to a good ruling.
We believe our brothers neither
masterminded nor sponsored
the violence, he said.
The URP ocial added that
residents were preparing to
hold celebrations after tomorrows ruling.
Mr Benson Rono, a resident,
called on Kenyans to join
them in the prayers as he also
expressed optimism that the

cases would crumble.
Last week, the ICC announced
that there would be no hearing
and that its decision would be
relayed to Mr Ruto and Mr Sang
in writing.
Meanwhile, religious leaders
from Nyeri County yesterday
prayed for the acquittal of Mr
Ruto and Mr Sang.
They also asked members of
their congregation to fast for
two days as the The Haguebased court prepared to deliver
the ruling in the no-case-to-answer Motion.

Paul Wanjohi said there was

ruling would mean a lot to the
country and families of the
two men.
I know these two have been
spending sleepless nights. Mr
Ruto needs prayers since he is
the Deputy President. Things
cannot move in the right direction if he is still considered a
suspect, he said.
At Itundu Catholic Church,
Fr Peter Githinji led the congregation in a three-minute
silent prayer.
He also asked worshippers
to pray for the countrys unity,
adding that the ruling could
greatly aect Kenyas stability
and peace.
We need to pray for the two
since everyone can land into
problems, he said.
He said the hope was that the
two would be freed just like the
other four post-election violence
suspects.
Archdeacon Francis Kariuki
of the African Independent
Pentecostal Church led a service at Murera Coee Estate in
Kiambu.
He dedicated 30 minutes of
prayers to the two.
Victory is in the hands of
God and we pray the ICC judges
will free them, he said.
Elders also held prayers at
Gikuyu and Mumbi Cultural
Museum, Nyeri.
We, the Jubilee MPs and supporters, are awaiting an independent

and fair verdict by the International
Criminal Court on the case facing
the Deputy President and journalist Joshua arap Sang.
We hope the ICC and its supporters are not using some of its
agents in Kenya in the name of the
civil society to send a message on
the ruling well in advance before
Tuesday.
We take great exception with some
reports appearing in a section of
the media suggesting that the ruling is already out there when the
judges have not pronounced themselves on the matter. The reports
are a gross violation of the basic
values of the Rome Statute and
fundamental principles of law and
independence of the court.
The judges should stick to their
decision and ignore that being
marketed by international and
local political actors. We arm our
strong belief in and commitment
to the rule of law, due process and
fairness. When we subscribed to
the Rome Statute, we believed
these rights would be the basis of
our engagement and that the ICC
would always be guided by them.
We believe having considered and
weighed evidence by the prosecution and the defence, the judges
will be guided by the facts at their
disposal and above all the truth in
determining the case.

According to a needs assessment report released last week,
teachers also want environmental issues, technology, gender
issues and nancial literacy be
part of the syllabus.
In addition, the teachers are
rooting for the introduction of
continuous assessment tests as
opposed to end of term examinations.
Parents, learners and other
stakeholders have emphasised
the need for provision of basics
classrooms, course books,
toilets, teaching aids and playing, games, music and drama
materials that enable learners
to relax.
They have also emphasised equal distribution of
resources that would facilitate
a more practical approach to

learning, especially for special

Teachers in secondary
schools prefer modern teaching approaches that include;
discussions, experiments,
brainstorming and demonstrations .
They have also called for
the introduction of practical

Education stakeholders and leaders
from Busia and Vihiga counties have
opposed plans by the government to
scrap the 8-4-4 education system.
Nambale MP John Bunyasi and
Vihiga county Deputy Governor Mr
Caleb Amaswache said in separate occasions that the changes will stagnate
learning in schools.
Mr Bunyasi, speaking during the
ground breaking ceremony of Sh60
million Mungatsi Technical Training
College in Nambale, said that though
he supports curriculum change, the
proposals being made were confusing
and too complicated.
The changes being proposed in the
planned review to have in place lower
and upper secondary are confusing,
he said.
Mr Bunyasi noted he does not see
why the government is in a hurry to
overhaul the system because the content of the current education system
can be changed without interfering
with its structure.

Moi opposes plans

to scrap 8-4-4 system
BY ANTHONY NJAGI
Former President Daniel
arap Moi yesterday opposed
plans to scrap the 8-4-4 education system.
Speaking during a thanksgiving service at Sunshine
School in Nairobi, Mr Moi
said the education system
was introduced after thorough research and analysis
to produce from Kenyan
classrooms scholars that
t in the international academic arena.
I am one person who has
been very keen in following
how Kenyan students cope
academically and professionally, both in the Kenyan job
market and abroad, Mr
Moi said.
Im very happy that the
products from our schools
are exemplary and can t in
any environment in America,
Britain, Japan, Korea, and
other technological powerhouses of the world today.
Mr Moi said many of the
students, who have gone
through the system have
been admitted to leading
universities in the world,
where they have excelled and
secured opportunities in the
international job market.
If our students, products of the 8-4-4 system,
are excelling in the cream
technology and banking
organisations we know of
in the modern world, who
is this telling us that we got
it wrong? he posed.
The success of the students we mentored in our
schools is an armation that
8-4-4 has worked well.
He said the system was
just one of the many success
stories coming from Kenya,
and has had an impact in the
rest of the world, adding
that the proposed review
of the system should aim to
start from where 8-4-4 has
reached.
It should not try to
reverse the clock and try
to reconstruct history, he
cautioned. I am noticing
a kind of panic mode and
waste to introduce a new
system of education without
regard to the preparedness
of the economy to shoulder
the financial elements of
this task.
If our students
are excelling
in the cream
technology and
banking organisations
in the modern world,
who is this telling us
that we got it wrong?
Former President Moi
I dont automatically support the

overhaul of 8-4-4 system. The new
system is too complicated, he said.
If approved, the new system will
replace the 8-4-4 system which has
been widely criticized for being heavily
loaded in terms of content and too examination oriented which, combined,
puts undue pressure on learners.
And while at Mudasa Academy
during the celebration to mark the
schools excellent performance in
last years Kenya Certicate of Secondary Examination, Mr Amaswache
said that change of curriculum will
stagnate learning process.
8-4-4 has moulded children who
have gone to pursue their academic
endeavours elsewhere, Mr Amaswache said.
He added: Let us not allow a few
people to sit in the boardroom and
agree to change a system.
Build capacity
Vihiga county executive member for

Education Azida Ali said before the
government reviews the curriculum,
it should rst invest in training and
building capacity amongst the teaching profession. She said education is
key to development of any society and
called on locals to take advantage of
the institution and utilise all opportunities it oers.
Mr Amaswache, who represented
his boss Governor Moses Akaranga at the event, advised that the
proposed system be run alongside the
current one.
He said: Let them (government)
retain the 8-4-4 system to run parallel
to the proposed one so that learners
and parents can choose a system they
want to use for their education.
Already the Kenya National Union
of Teachers has also opposed plans
by the government to scrap the 8-4-4
education system. Knut instead proposes that the content of the current
education system be changed without
interfering with its structure.
The 8-4-4 system has been condemned as being examination oriented
that has killed many talents that would
have otherwise helped transform lives
of many learners.

or several months, hundreds

of people have been arriving in
Misesi Village, Kisii County, to
pay tribute to a fallen soldier.
Maj Georey Obwoge was the commander of the Kenya Defence Forces

The Kenyan military was sent to

especially at the Coast. Later, the
force was incorporated into the
African Union Mission in Somalia,
Amisom.

Rhoda said she learnt of her husbands fate more than two weeks ago
from the Department of Defence.

Ms Elizabeth Obwoge, the mother of KDF soldier Georey Obwoge who died in
El-Adde, Somalia, two months ago. The body was identied two weeks ago.
You are requested to report to the
Forces Memorial Hospital as soon as
possible. We have some information
for your family, the caller told her
before suddenly hanging up.
Similar calls were made to the soldiers close relatives. They were only
informed of his death upon arrival in
Nairobi.
The soldier had two daughters;
Melissa, 4 and six-month-old Joy.
We travelled to Nairobi hoping
and praying that he had nally been
found alive. However, I had a nagging thought that he might be dead,
Elizabeth said.
Rhoda said theirs had been a long
and anxious wait.
We had been to the city on many
occasions and it was disappointment
on all occasions, she told the Nation
after the body was identied.
On previous visits, officers informed us that his body was not
among those brought from El-Adde
so we crossed our ngers, the soldiers
brother Zebedeo said.
Details of how the body was recovered remain sketchy.

Rhoda described the soldier as a
loving husband and doting father.
While in Somalia, he would call
every day to inquire about his daughters and other family members. I began
to worry when he took days to call,
she said.
She said death had dealt her a blow
too painful to bear.
Elizabeth described her son as polite, obedient and hardworking.
Death can nd us any time and
anywhere. My son died defending the
country. All I want is to bury him and
leave the rest to God, she said.
She thanked the government
for bringing the soldiers remains
home.
I am grateful to KDF for giving us
his remains so that we can give him a
proper sendo. I dont blame anyone
for what happened, she said.
She appealed to the government to
consider giving her other son a chance
to serve in the military.
Students seeking to be clinical

ocers will now be trained on noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) like
cancer, diabetes, hypertension and
kidney ailments after the development of a new curriculum.
The core curriculum for bachelor
and diploma courses in clinical medicine, community health and surgery
was developed by the Clinical Ocers
Council (COC), a government regulatory body for clinical ocers.
It addresses new and existing
healthcare challenges that include
diagnosis and management of communicable diseases such as HIV, and
prevention, management and control
of NCDs.
This comes at a time when Kenya
is struggling with new cases and rising death tolls from transmittable
diseases and NCDs, even when the
rest of the world is transitioning to
preventing the latter.
More innovative
Clinical officers are usually the

rst point of contact with patients
in slums and rural areas, since 80 per
cent of specialists are based in major
urban towns where only 20 per cent
of Kenyans reside.
Considering that many doctors
are based in big cities there is thus
an increasing demand to train clinical
ocers, said COC Chairman Simon
Kangethe who was speaking during
the launch of the second edition core
curriculum for clinical ocers and
clinical surgeons.
Health Cabinet Secretary Cleopa
Mailu, speaking during the Thursday
launch in Nairobi, said the ministry
was working on diversifying training
for clinical ocers to make them more
innovative in delivering services.

ISIOLO
Mathari Hospital hit

by congestion crisis
Kenyas only referral
facility for psychiatric
care operating at
double its capacity
BY JOHN NGIRACHU
@JohnNgirachu
jngirachu@ke.nationmedia.com
he countrys only referral

hospital for pyschiatric
care is unable to cope
with an influx of patients
sent there by courts and
prisons.
According to the head of
Mathari Hospital in Nairobi,
Dr Julius Ogato, the facility is
overloaded because it cannot
turn away patients referred
there for psychiatric evaluation
and treatment by Government
departments.
The relationship between
the Judiciary and the Mathari
Hospital is non-consultative
and characterized by poor
collaboration and cooperation,
Dr Ogato told the National Assemblys Health Committee on
Thursday.
When courts order for psychiatric evaluation of those
charged with capital oences
or when the prison authorities
send mentally ill patients, the

hospital has no option but to
take them in, he said.
The ocial added that some
of the referrals were unnecessary, citing patients who were
sent there for failing to understand English, or Kiswahili,
the languages used in court,
or for domestic issues that
had nothing to do with mental illnesses.
The Judiciary and the police
often took long to pick up those
who had been treated.
In some cases, he said, the
suspects had terminal mental
retardation and ended up staying at the hospital for long,
citing the case of a patient
who had been at the hospital
for 23 years.
Dr Ogato said the hospital
had a bed capacity of 250 and
an average occupancy rate of
200 per cent, meaning it was
operating with double the
number of patients it should
have.
Sh127m
What
Mathari
Mental Hospital was
allocated this nancial
year
The hospital was allocated

Sh127 million for its recurrent
expenses in the current nancial year, which Dr Ogato said
was inadequate.
The committee is looking
into how the hospital, which has
over time become a symbol of
the bad way the mentally ill are
treated in Kenya, operates.
Its attention was provoked
by a petition from a mentally
ill man who dropped out of
university because he couldnt
get treatment for his condition.
He petitioned the committee to
look into the situation at the
hospital.
MPs were told that because
the Maximum Security Unit
at the hospital is an old building without proper sewerage,
the patients were locked in at
night with only a bucket to use
as a toilet.
Deputy Commissioner of
Prisons Benjamin Njoga and
Correctional Services Principal Secretary Micah Powon
said prisons were crowded
and that they did not have
any medical facilities.
Committee chairman Rachel
Nyamai attributed the problems
to a communication failure between the Judiciary, the police
and the prisons.

Kandie: Shrinking donor funding hurting health programmes

BY MATHIAS RINGA
East African countries are
unable to implement major
health programmes because
of shrinking donor funding.
East African Aairs Cabinet
Secretary Phyllis Kandie (left)
said there is a huge drop in aid
which has aected crucial programmes such as campaigns
against HIV/ Aids.
In a speech read on her behalf by the Principal Secretary
Betty Maina in Mombasa on
Saturday, Ms Kandie called

on regional governments allocate substantial amounts to
health to reduce reliance on
foreigners.
On her part , Ms Maina
lamented that most health
programmes in the region depended on donors, including
the World Bank, DFID and the
German government.
The PS also called on MPs
to fast-track passing of health
and HIV/Aids nancing laws to
enable the government nance
these programmes directly and

address the challenge lack of
funding for such important
programmes.
East African Community
deputy secretary-general Jesca
Eriyo called on governments
to adequately fund health programmes to boost the health of
its citizens.
Our countries need a healthy
population to boost economic
growth, said Ms Eriyo.
She challenged the governments to equip hospitals with
modern medical facilities to

save patients the costs of travelling abroad for treatment.
When the region has best
medical facilities, medical tourism will also grow as patients
from neighbouring countries
and regions come for the
services Ms Eriyo added.
Meanwhile, Ms Kandie said
regional countries are working
towards harmonizing health
policies and regulatory frameworks for greater liberalization
of the regional market.
Health ocers yesterday said they

had contained cholera in Migingo
island. The situation is now under
control We ask our people to
observe high hygiene standards as
one of the measures to contain the
disease, said Dr Dalmass Oyugi,
Migori Health Departments chief
ocer. Yesterday, Migori Governor
Okoth Obado told the Ugandan government that, in the past, its nationals were treated free of charge but it
was time to deal with the outbreak in
its country as when its people cross
the border with the deadly disease,
they burden the county.

jkubania@ke.nationmedia.com
eputy Chief Justice Kalpana

Rawal has been linked to a
string of shell companies
registered in a notorious Caribbean
tax haven popular with tax dodgers,
dictators and drug dealers.
She was a director or shareholder
of four companies and was actively
involved in two of them after she
was appointed High Court judge.
Her husband, Mr Hasmukhrai
Rawal, was a director or shareholder of seven other companies.
Three were used to buy and sell
property worth millions of shillings
in the United Kingdom.
While it is not impossible for
honest people to conduct business
in secretive oshore jurisdictions,
the British Virgin Islands, along
with other tax havens, help individuals to conceal their wealth
and either evade tax or launder the
proceeds of illegal activities.
Justice Rawal argues that registering and operating businesses
in tax havens is a perfectly legal
and legitimate corporate practice
in the UK, where her family is in
the real estate business.
Documents showing her business interests are part of papers
provided by the International
Consortium of Investigative
Journalists (ICIJ) that detail how
prominent people from all over
the world used a Panama-based
rm, Mossack Fonseca, to open
and operate rms and accounts
in tax havens.
According to the records, Mr
Rawal was the sole director and
shareholder of Montague Real Estate, which bought an apartment in
London for Sh114 million in 2004.
The at was later sold in 2006.
Mr Rawal was also the sole director and shareholder of Arklyn
International Ltd. The company
bought two London apartments,
including one for Sh169 million in
2005, which was sold for Sh237
million in 2011. The same company
also bought another at in London for Sh160 million in 2005 and
sold it for Sh218 million in 2012.
Mr Rawal resigned as a director
and shareholder in 2011 and all
his shares were transferred to
Buchanan Ltd.
Innovate Global Ltd, another
company controlled by Mr Rawal,
bought a house in Surrey, England,

for Sh278 million and an apartment
in London for Sh98 million. The
London apartment was sold for
Sh118 million in 2013. The shares
at Innovate Global were split between Rawal, two unnamed bearers
and Buchanan Ltd.
Other companies under the control of Mr Rawal but for which no
nancial activity could be detected
include Quintessa Quella Holdings
where Mr Rawal was a shareholder
alongside a Mr Vinayak Kantilal
Radia and Windsor Land Investments Ltd where Mr Rawal was
the sole shareholder and director. Others include Windsor Real
Estate Partners SA and Actara
Investments Ltd.
Justice Rawals personal involvement was in four companies. She
and her husband were listed as directors at Forrell Real Estate Inc
from 2001 to 2007 and Rocklane
Properties Ltd from 2001 to 2003,
which were notably active after
her appointment to the Judiciary
in 2000. She was also a director
and shareholder at Ubique Services Ltd in 1994 and shareholder at
Highworth Management Services
in 1995.
All four rms were registered in
the British Virgin Islands (BVI), a
notorious tax haven. According to
registration documents, the companies were used for a slew of real
estate functions, including buying,
selling and leasing of property.
Rocklane was opened in 2001, a
year after Mrs Rawal was sworn in
as a High Court judge. All Rocklane shares (1,000) were held by an
unnamed bearer, suggesting that
the company might have wanted
to keep the owner of the shares
secret. Justice Rawal, together with
her husband, resigned as directors
at Rocklane in 2003. Neither gave
a reason for their resignation.
The same pattern was observed
with Forell Real Estate, where both
Justice Rawal and her husband were
directors from 2001. Mr Rawal,
however, held all the shares in
the company. They both resigned
as directors in 2007 and were replaced by others.
Highworth Management Services, where Justice Rawal and
her husband were directors and
shareholders, also had businessman Ajay Shah, a former director
of Trust Bank, as a member of the
board and shareholder.
Background
HOW INVESTIGATION
CAME ABOUT
FILE | NATION
Justice Kalpana Rawal when she was sworn is as Deputy Chief Justice at
State House, Nairobi in June 2013.
Trust Bank collapsed in 2001.
Mr Ajay Shah and a Mr Pratful
Shah were held responsible for the
collapse, and the Central Bank of
Kenya in 2014 ordered that their
assets be auctioned to recover
Sh1.5 billion to pay o depositors.
The two were, however, reported
to have gone into hiding and the
assets are yet to be recovered.
At Ubique Services Ltd, the Rawals were directors and shareholders
alongside Rajesh Kumar Rawal,
possibly a close relative.
While it is not explicitly wrong
that these companies were
registered outside Kenya, it is
suspicious that the Rawals would
choose to have them in the BVI,
an archipelago of islands that has
long been known and investigated
for its opaque business practices
that provide the perfect hideaway
for individuals with secrets about
nancial transactions to hide.
Justice Rawal, who is ghting
to keep her seat in the Supreme
Court after reaching the retirement
age of 70 this year, has denied any
wrongdoing.
Through her lawyer, Mr Kioko
Kilukumi, she said the rms had
been part of the familys real estate
business since the 1990s and her
involvement either as a shareholder
or a director was above board.
The real estate business, primarily run by her sons in the UK,
has been and remains compliant

with British and international
law. The use of BVI companies
is a perfectly legal and legitimate
corporate practice in the UK, said
her ocial statement.
The statement added that the
DCJ has never at any one time
been a beneciary of any monies
from any of the said companies.
And although two companies
where she was named as director
were in operation after she was
appointed to the Judiciary, the
embattled judge, in her statement,
said that she never participated in
the aairs of the companies since
joining public service.
This is, however, disputable since
records show that she personally
signed correspondence regarding
Rocklane Properties Ltd in 2003,
when she resigned as director. In
addition, she is mentioned as being
present in a board meeting held
about Forrell Real Estate in 2004
conrming herself as a director of
the company.
She did not clarify whether she
declared any of the companies to
the Judicial Service Commission
during her appointment as a High
Court judge.
The Kenyan Constitution makes
it illegal for judges, being state ofcers, to open and operate oshore
bank accounts. Chapter six Article

The Panama Papers is an

The International Consortium

other media partners, spent
a year sifting through 11.5
million leaked les to expose
the oshore holdings of world
political leaders, links to global
scandals, and details of the
hidden nancial dealings of
fraudsters, drug trackers,
billionaires, celebrities, sports
stars and more.
The trove of documents
is likely the biggest leak of
inside information in history.
It includes nearly 40 years of
data from a little-known but
powerful law rm based in
Panama. That rm, Mossack
Fonseca, has oces in more
than 35 locations around
the globe, and is one of the
worlds top creators of shell
companies, corporate structures that can be used to hide
ownership of assets.

records revealed information
on more than 214,000 oshore
companies connected to people

territories.
shall not maintain a bank account

Former Law Society of Kenya
chairman Eric Mutua said oshore
accounts are associated with people
looking to avoid paying taxes or to
hide money from government.
It is highly unethical for a judge
to engage in such practices, he
said.
His sentiments are echoed by
international tax expert John Christensen who says that the practice
of opening oshore accounts and
companies is not illegal by itself,
but that these companies and accounts are used for highly secretive
transactions.
Kamani family linked to ghost rm, Sound Day Corporation

BY JOHN KAMAU
PAUL WAWERU | NATION
Mr Chamanlal Kamani (left), Mr Rashmi Kamani (centre) and

Mr Deepak Kamani in a Nairobi Court in July 2015.
One of the companies that

Kenya has been trying to trace in
regard to the loss of Sh10 billion
in the ongoing Anglo Leasing
cases against the Kamani family
was struck o the register in the
British Virgin Islands in 2008,
which means it no longer exists
in law.
Last Thursday, Kenyas prosecution told the court that it could
not trace Brian Mills, an American associated with Sound Day
Corporation and Apex Finance
Corporation. The High Court had
issued a warrant of arrest against
the American but it had not been

executed.
But documents from Panama
now show that Mr Chamanlal
Kamani, Mr Deepak Kamani and
Mr Rashmi Kamani, who have
been charged with conspiring to
defraud the government of Sh4.5
billion through a purported supplier credit contract agreement,
were associated with Sound Day.
It was a shell company with oces
at Londons PSJ Alexander.
The new documents, released
by the International Consortium
of Investigative Journalists from
the vaults of Sound Days registered agent, Mossack Fonseca,
indicate that the three were appointed directors of Sound Day

on April 18, 1990 during a meeting chaired by Mr Colin Forster,
who was resigning as the director.
The other director, who resigned
to pave way for Kamanis was Ms
Muriel Ann Atkin.
Incorporated in September
1989, Sound Day had its registered oce at Wickhams Cay in
the British Virgin Islands and its
registered agent was then Caribbean Corporate Services Ltd.
Sound Day is one of the rms
that has been linked to the Anglo
Leasing cases, but while it has
been established that the Kamanis
were the benecial owners of Info

Talent Ltd, which was to supply
the police equipment, their link
to Sound Day, which was to seek
nance for the project, has been
missing.
Previous court documents indicate that Sound Day came into
the picture on October 30, 2003,
when it received a letter from the
permanent secretary Provincial

Security, Mr Dave Mwangi, seeking nancial arrangements such
as suppliers credit to support

The

our directors of a listed

firm opened an offshore

the latter to transact their own

Long time CMC chairman
Jeremiah Kiereini, former Attorney-General Charles Njonjo
and two businessmen, Martin
Forster and Prahland K Jani
formed a company known as
CMC Group Ltd in the British
Virgin Islands (BVI) on December
22, 1999. However, when Kenya
started investigating offshore
accounts and proceeds stashed
abroad, founders of this company
decided to liquidate it.
The choice of BVI was apt. For
years, it has been a choice location for those searching to stash
their money in obscure oshore
entities. It became popular after
the 1990s US invasion of Panama,
which was previously the number
one choice on corporate anonymity. It is estimated that BVI has

and is the worlds biggest provider
of oshore entities.
Previous media reports had
indicated that several other oshore companies associated with
CMC also existed during its life
as a listed company. These were:
Fairvalley Investments, Fairvalley
Trust and Corival Ltd.
But for the rst time, documents
on the registration of CMC Group
Ltd have emerged among the millions of documents released by
the International Consortium of
Investigative Journalists to reveal
beneciaries and real owners of
the oshore companies. CMC is

no longer a listed company after
its shareholders were bought out
for a total of Sh7.5 billion by a
Dubai rm, AlFuttaim.
Previous investigations by the
Capital Markets Authority, the
national regulator, had accused
these senior directors of CMC
of beneting from a Sh3.1 billion
slush fund that had been stashed
in the British Jersey Islands.
The money was allegedly remitted by a British multinational,
Land Rover, which later fell out
with a new CMC management led
by Mr Bill Lay, after he started

investigating the Jersey accounts.
Finally, CMC lost the Land Rover
franchise.
The existence of these offshore accounts first emerged
after former CMC boss Martin
Forster left behind documents
after his ouster in 2011. The
discovery sparked a bitter battle
between former CMC directors
and the CMA, which wanted to
investigate the accounts.
The new records also authoritatively show that a former personal
secretary of President Moi, Mr
Joshua Kulei, who had previously
been cited as a beneciary of the
secret Sh3.1 billion, was also a
shareholder of the secret CMC
Group Ltd.
While details of the oshore
company were previously not
clear, there is now documentary
evidence that CMC Group Ltd
was operational and was registered by Panama-based Mossack
Fonseca through its BVI oce.
The company operated from
Cyprus where it had a postal
address.

governments plans to modernise police equipment and
accessories.
In response, Sound Day
Corporation, in a letter
dated November 20, 2003,
confirmed its interest in
the project. It also wrote to
Mr Mwangi and Mr Joseph
Magari, then permanent
secretary of the Treasury,
requesting approval for
direct procurement. This
culminated into a contract
in December 2003 signed by
Mr Mwangi, Mr Magari and
Mr Brian Mills, the managing
director of Sound Day.
Apart from Mr Mills and
former Finance Minister
David Mwiraria, all the others have been charged at the
High Court. Mr Mwiraria has
yet to take plea due to poor
health.
It is the prosecutions case
that though Sound Day was
to provide credit and supply
the equipment to the government, the same contract
provided that no equipment
would be supplied before
the government made the
rst payment.
In the arrangement, Sound
Day was to charge an interest of 3 per cent for alleged
financing, which in effect
meant that the government
was to pay interest upon monies that it was providing and
that there was no credit to be

advanced to the government
by Sound Day. Thus, Sound
Day was to get money from
the government and earn interest, which was described
in court as a classic case of
reverse nancing.
Sound Day Corporation
received 1.2 million euros
on the strength of arranging for nancing that never
was. This money is said to
have been deposited in a
Swiss account belonging to
the Kamanis.
The Panama documents
also indicate that a search
warrant was issued last year
at the premises of Mossack Fonseca to get details
concerning this company
including changes in
registered agents and its
transactions. The Kamanis
resigned as directors later
and the board of directors
was provided by Mossack
Fonseca. That way, they
could not be traced.

Lax laws > Companies registering in places like Panama are never required to state their real owners or beneciaries
Why tax havens

attract dubious

Coalition,

alliance of
civil society groups
and governments

to address
inequalities in the
nancial
system that
penalises
billions of
people
Question: Why would a company

opt to have its holding company
in Panama?
Answer: Panama has long been
one of the favourite secrecy jurisdictions of the Americas, and lax

nancial laws make it extremely
attractive for those looking to
move money anonymously. As a
foreign rm, you can move money
into the country untaxed, and the
utter lack of transparency makes
it appealing for those looking to
skirt the law.
A 2014 IMF report rated
Panamas progression on implementing 40 recommendations
from the Financial Action Task
Force: the government had only
fully implemented one.
This not only makes the jurisdiction a safe haven for corporate
tax evasion, but also for those
looking to launder money or
nance criminal activity.
Why, in general, are shell companies created?

Answer: Not all shell companies
are anonymous. However, in most
jurisdictions around the world,
you can create a shell company
anonymously, which allows you
to hide the benecial owner the
real person or people ultimately
in control or beneting from the
company.
Jurisdictions like Panama
dont require full disclosure of
beneficial ownership information, which makes the system
incredibly susceptible to abuse.
Unfortunately, Panama isnt
the only place with lax laws. A
recent academic study showed
that the US state of Delaware
was the second easiest place in
the world to open an anonymous
company. Weve seen how these
companies are used too arms

former leader, Sani Abacha, led

them to companies set up in the
British Virgin Islands. The unfortunate reality is that far too
many jurisdictions around the

fact, Kenya ranked as the easiest
place in the world to do so in the
same academic study.
Anonymous companies often
Answer: Whether or not there are

legitimate reasons to create a shell
company, the fact is that they are
the favourite vehicle for all sorts
of criminal activity from money
laundering and embezzlement
to corporate tax evasion, because there simply isnt enough
transparency around them. This
has devastating repercussions.
Almost any time there is largescale embezzlement, corruption,
or corporate malfeasance, shell
companies are a central piece of
the puzzle. A 2011 World Bank report estimated that of the cases of
grand corruption they researched,
70 per cent used anonymous shell
companies to help get away with
the crime.
But the good news is the x

is fairly straightforward. Countries can set up public registers
that collect information on the
real benecial owners of a
company when its incorporated.
If ownership information was
available, investigators, journalists, and civil society could peel
back the layers of anonymity that
shell companies create. It would
also deter criminals and the corrupt from using shell companies
as a vehicle for crime in the rst
place.
What legal regimes attract them

to countries such as Panama, BVI,
etc?
Answer: Chiey, its the broad secrecy of these jurisdictions that
is so appealing to many.

When a former National Oil

Corporation of Kenya director
decided to open a new company
in the British Virgin Islands (BVI),
the Panama law rm that had registered Mwendia Nyagas Abantu
Oil & Gas company did some
background search and described
him as a high risk and a politically
exposed person.
Mr Nyaga was appointed in
March 2007 after the former managing director, Ms Mary Mukindia,
opted not to renew her contract. Mr
Nyagas term ended on September
12, 2010.
It was after leaving Nock that
he sought to register the company.
Initially, he had oated three names:
Abantu Petroleum Ltd, Abantu
Energy Resources Ltd and Abantu
Oil & Gas Ltd via Guernsey-based
Chamberlain Heritage Services
Ltd.
The company forwarded the
names to Mossack Fonseca &
Co (Jersey) Ltd for registration.
Abantu was registered on May 29,
2012 in the BVI, with the directors
listed as Deborah Anne Ellis, Bruce
McNaught and Christopher Shaw.
The appointed secretaries were
Chamberlain Heritage Services
Ltd and Mr Nyaga was listed as
the shareholder.
After multiple scandals emerged
in Panamas banking system and
threats of sanctions by the US
over money laundering, the Panama
Government started to enforce the
know-your-customer rules, which
started making it impossible to park
illicit prots in the country.
As it turned out, Mr Nyagas company was under the management
of another shell rm, Chamberlain,
which was one of the Mossack registered rms.
When asked about Mr Nyaga, an
ocial of Chamberlain conrmed
he was the same one who worked
at the Kenyan company.
Mr Mwendia Nyaga previously
acted in that oce and accordingly,
he is a PEP. We assessed Abantu
as high risk and have carried out
enhanced due diligence on Mr
Nyaga. As a regulated fiduciary
we have taken CDD appropriate to
the high risk classication of this
company, said a May 7, 2013 email
from Ms Sophie Emmerson, a trust
administrator at Chamberlain.
Records link Mois close allies to company that bought property in UK

BY JOHN KAMAU
A shadowy company that was named
in the Kroll Report as belonging to
former President Daniel arap Mois
business associate, Mr Joshua Kulei, is
now being managed by former Mumias
chief nancial ocer Chris Kisire.
Fresh details indicate that the company, Broadland Overseas SA, was
registered in Panama by Public Deed
No. 1054 of January 27, 1988.
These details are contained in millions of leaked internal records of a
Panama-based legal outt, Mossack
Fonseca, which has disclosed the
identities of the holders of anonymous

wealth from around the world.
Mr Kisire is currently the CEO of
The Sovereign Group, a fund associated with the Moi family and the retired
presidents close business allies. Its
chairman is Mr Kulei.
Mr Kisire took over the running of
Broadland Overseas SA in August 2010.
The other directors are Mr Thomas
Kulei, who is based in the UK and Ms
Grace Kipyator Kemei. We could not
establish whether Mr Thomas Kulei is
associated with Mr Joshua Kulei Mr
Mois former private secretary.
In the Kroll Report, commissioned
by the Kibaki administration in 2002 to

trace the whereabouts of funds looted
during the Kanu regime, it was alleged
that Mr Kulei took a 1.63 million loan
from UKs HSBC in October 1997.
The report alleged that the funds
were used for the purchase of property
1997
When Broadland
took a 1.63 million
from HSBC to buy a property
in Cobham, Srrey. Mr Kulei at
one time listed as Broadlands
director
located in Cobham, Surrey, under the

name of Broadland Overseas SA.
Although the Kroll Report was
never made public and the government through its spokesman at the
time, Dr Alfred Mutua, dismissed the
leaked report as based on hearsay
and as incomplete and inaccurate,
there have been renewed attempts
in Parliament by Mukurweini MP
Kabando wa Kabando to have the
report made public.
The Kroll leak alleged that Mr Moi,
his family and associates, plundered as
much as $2bn of taxpayers money.
While little is known about Broadland
Overseas SA, the Panama records indicate that it is one of the shell companies
that had been registered by Mossack
Fonseca.
It had previously been managed by
Guernsey-based Kingston Management (G) Ltd before it was shifted to
Dubai-based MGI Salim Rojkotwala &
Associates, an accountancy rm, after
the appointment of the three Kenyans
as directors. The three replaced the
Mossack Fonseca-appointed directors.
In November, the management of the
rm was shifted from MGI to Ekavi
Ltd, in Nicosia, Cyprus.

Extend war on graft

to private entities
ith the government now beginning to step a

little harder on the accelerator in the drive
against corruption, the conspicuously missing piece in the jigsaw puzzle is the private sector.
Indeed, the operatives in the government who turn
the wheels of graft are inspired by the prospect of the
huge potential gains in deals with wayward private
individuals, companies, and organisations.
In his State of the Nation address last week,
President Uhuru Kenyatta outlined the ongoing government measures, including the seizure of assets
acquired with the proceeds of corruption. The antigraft war calls for a comprehensive and systematic
approach. The proposed legislation to get private
companies and charity organisations fully involved
and committed to the war against corruption is long
overdue. Of particular signicance, therefore, is the
apparent involvement of the private sector in the
preparation of this Bill. The proposed law contains
recommendations by the umbrella Kenya Private
Sector Alliance.
The apparent buy-in by the private sector is a signicant step in the war on graft. Indeed, some of the
key drivers in the endemic corruption in the public
sector are private rms and other organisations. Private rms, for instance, are the ones that often pay
bribes to win government tenders. And non-governmental organisations are also known to be avenues
through which some individuals enrich themselves.
The war on graft, therefore, cannot be won by
merely focusing only on one sector. It calls for
a comprehensive approach that the Bribery Bill,
2006 seeks to address. If passed, private organisations will be required to implement tough measures
to stop their employees from giving or receiving
bribes. Since it takes two to tango, it is noteworthy
that the Bill seeks to ensure that both the givers and
the recipients of bribes are severely punished. The
MPs should vigorously debate and enhance the legislation.
Let us build Kenyan golf
he standards of golf in the country are worrying. Just days after local professionals failed to
make an impact at the Kenya Open, with only
three of them making the cut, Kenyas junior amateur
team nished a poor sixth at the All Africa Junior Golf
Championship in Sousse, Tunisia.
It was Kenyas worst performance in the championships, where they have always been among the top
three teams, as they failed to qualify for the World
Junior Championship set for Japan later this year.
Even more worrying is that none of the Kenyan juniors made it to the top 10 in the individual title.
A long-term solution is required to improve the
game. For Kenyan golf to grow, the game needs to be
included in schools so that golf clubs can have the
numbers to train young golfers. Clubs should be willing to adopt some of the schools.
There should be a transition plan with proper structures, from the amateur to the professional level.
Local professionals need to play in many tournaments to enhance their chances at the Kenya Open.
Kenya Open Golf Ltd should re-examine its role
by coming out to help local professionals by, for instance, sponsoring those who make the cut at the
Kenya Open to participate in other challenge events.

TERRORISM MEMORIAL
Remembering victims of attack

on Garissa college a year later
L
ast week marked the

rst anniversary of
the terrorist attack on
the Garissa University College when 147 students were
gunned down by four terrorists during a dawn raid on the
institutions dormitories.
The number of students
killed in the prime of their
lives shocked the world. The
gruesomeness of the attack
and the scale of the casualties
made headlines globally and
drew worldwide condemnation and an outpouring of
sympathy, particularly at university campuses.
Vigils organised by civil
society groups for the dead
students were held at Nairobis Uhuru Park and in several
campuses around the world,
including Zaghreb University
in Croatia, where 147 students
held a public demonstration
during which they played
dead in remembrance of the
students who had been killed.
Unlike the high-prole memorial service held for the
victims of the Westgate mall
attack, senior government
ocials were signicantly
absent at the vigils, which
made many Kenyans wonder
whether the life of a poor
student was worth less than
that of the relatively wealthier
victims who had died at Westgate.
To date President Uhuru
Kenyatta has yet to visit Garissa University College or any
of the victims families.
The tragedy was made even
more painful by the fact that
many of the students came
from humble backgrounds
and a large majority were the
rst in their families to acquire a university education.

The mother of one victim
had sold her only plot of
land to send her daughter to
university. The parents loss
was immeasurable; many
had placed all their hopes
and dreams for their future
in their university-going children.
To the credit of Kenyans,
the Garissa and other terrorist attacks in Kenya have
not led to retaliatory attacks
against Muslims, as has been
witnessed in Europe and
North America. This goes to
show that while Kenyans tend
to be ethnically divided, they
exhibit remarkable religious
tolerance.
However, the governments
response has been markedly dierent. Shortly after
the Garissa attack, Deputy
President William Ruto issued an order for all refugees
in the Dadaab refugee camp
to return to Somalia despite
the fact that in 2013 Kenya
signed a tripartite agreement
with the Oce of the United
Nations High Commissioner
for Refugees and the government of Somalia to facilitate
the voluntary (not forced) repatriation of Somali refugees
to Somalia.
Human rights bodies reported that extra-judicial
killings of terrorism suspects
had increased since the attack
and that young men were disappearing from their homes,
never to be seen again.
The Interior Cabinet Secretary announced that a wall
would be built along the
porous 900-kilometre Kenya-
RASNA WARAH
Senior government
ocials were
absent at the vigils,
which made Kenyans
wonder whether the life
of a poor student was
worth less than that of
the relatively wealthier
victims who had died
at Westgate
Somalia border. It was a clear

case of scapegoating as all the
four terrorists who attacked
Garissa University College
were Kenyan citizens, not Somali nationals and only one
of them was an ethnic Somali.
Thankfully, Garissa University College has since
reopened. However, there has
been no update on the great
wall that was to be built along
the Kenya-Somalia border
while the issue of closing
down the Dadaab camp has
been the subject of negotiations between UNHCR and
the Kenyan Government.
The Kenyan forces are still
in Somalia. No one knows
how many have died since

Kenya entered that country in
2011 as the government has
yet to release these gures,
though Somalias President
Hassan Sheikh Mohamud
recently announced that 187
Kenyan soldiers had been
killed during the recent attack on the El Adde camp. (Is
President Mohamud privy to
information that the Kenya
Defence Forces/Amisom has
not bothered to make public
or did he get the numbers
from Al-Shabaab, which is
prone to gloating about such
things?)
The European Union and
other donors have announced
their intention to reduce funding to Amisom, which could
have an impact on the number
of African troops on the
ground in Somalia.
However, as the Somali national army is under-equipped,
it is likely that Amisom will
continue to have a presence
in Somalia for some time to
come, which is unfortunate as
African Union soldiers have
already been in Somalia for
almost a decade.
On the other hand, regional
entities such as Puntland and
the self-declared independent state of Somaliland
have been able to thwart the
Al-Shabaab menace quite successfully.
Just last week, Puntlands
president claimed to have subdued an imminent attack by
Al-Shabaab.
Interestingly, these are the
very regions of Somalia where
Amisom has no presence.

INTEGRATION
With row over pipeline, is EAC

ready for a political federation?
T
he conscation by Tanzanian authorities of

passports belonging to
members of a Kenyan team that
was visiting the port of Tanga
took many by surprise. Ostensibly, it was Tanzanias reaction
to being locked out of an earlier
meeting held in Nairobi to discuss Ugandas oil pipeline route.
President Yoweri Museveni
was the chief guest and his
country, Uganda, the beautiful
maiden being wooed by both
Kenya and Tanzania to be the
preferred route choice for the
pipeline.
But this tit-for-tat is not new.
It will be remembered that in
2015, Tanzania cut Kenya Airways ights from 42 to 14 per
week (although this was later
reversed) after Kenya denied
Tanzanian tourist vans entry
into the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. This was after
Tanzania has denied Kenyan
tour vans entry into its territory.
It was only recently that the
regional paper, The EastAfrican,
was allowed back into Tanzania,
after a long hiatus. While these
incidents may be unrelated,
their frequency must be seen
in the context of the competing
interests that are only likely to
intensify as the bloc navigates
its way into the proposed political federation.
Clearly, it will get worse before it gets better and it will
require dexterity to navigate

the slippery route into a mature
economic bloc. Safe arrival at
that destination will require maturity and the spirit of give and
take, especially on the part of
Kenya, considered a key variable in the integration matrix. An
important lesson to learn is that
regional integration will never
be a done deal; there must be
continuous nurturing.
Until a few weeks ago, Kenya
had thought the girl with the
oil was already in the box, but
the dashing, no-nonsense suitor
in the name of John Pombe
Magufuli seems to have done
better than just send a few
roses. His approach may have
signalled to Mr Museveni that
they are of kindred spirit. Add
to that Ugandas 2008 experience with Kenyas railway line
and Tanga easily becomes a
more attractive option. Kenya
not only needs to up its game
but also to accept that it is ne
to win some and lose some.
Kenya will also need to appreciate that there will be new
realignments even as the bloc
readies itself for a political
federation and should (as well
as the other member states)
be concerned about how much
the citizens of the region are
sold on this new project. As the
haggling over the newfound oil
goes on, we should be asking
ourselves what the envisaged
JACKSON KIRAKA
The days of winner
take all ended with
the defunct EAC...
every member state
must live and let live
federation will look like and
whether the regions residents
are ready for such an arrangement. Are the individual states
ready and willing to cede their
national sovereignty and governance to one titular federal
head overseeing security, the
economy, and other aspects
that would concern a diverse
150 million people with dierent languages and cultures? If
an oil pipeline would raise the
sort of heat we have witnessed,
what will it be like to agree on
who the political head of an
EAC federation will be?
The 2004 Wako report proposed that the head of state
of the EAC federation would

either be one of the heads of
state of the partner states,
in which case, it would be
rotational, or elected by the national parliaments plus the East
African Legislative Assembly.
At a regional summit in
Kigali last year, under the
Northern Corridors coalition of the willing, Uganda led
Kenya and Rwanda in pushing
for fast-tracking of the political
federation, with Mr Museveni
reportedly insisting that even
if the economic integration
were successful, there were
certain issues that could only
be addressed under a political
federation. Now that Tanzania
is standing up to be counted,
it means that the shape of
the chessboard may need to
change.
After an agreement is reached
on the route of the Ugandan
oil pipeline, the bigger task
will be to begin to ponder what
it will mean to have the other
EAC leaders answerable to one
among them in a political federation. The days of winner take
all ended with the defunct East
African Community. In this new
era, every member state must
live and let live.

PROPOSED SYSTEM. The new curriculum to
replace the 8-4-4 system should be one that gives
learners a real-life education, says Gilbert Wendott. He
adds: This is a welcome change, given the irrelevance
of the 8-4-4 system, which only breeds employees.
We require a system that will enable our children to
become producers, employers, and innovators. The
proposed 2-6-6-3 system should allow the children to
specialise at high school level and focus on specic areas of interest before they become occupied with life
issues. His contact is kipropw@gmail.com.
UNIVERSALLY ACCEPTABLE. Though the time
has come to scrap the 8-4-4 system, it should not be
demonised, says Joseph Macharia. Though the system
had noble objectives when it was formulated three decades ago, he adds: They have largely been overtaken
by the needs of the current global trends. However,
Joseph has misgivings about the proposed system,
which he fears, seems designed to progressively ofoad students along the way. He is instead rooting for
a universally acceptable system like 2-12-4. His contact is machariajoseph82@gmail.com.
ITCHING TO PAY. The Ministry of Lands, which annually generates demand notes indicating how much
land rent property owners should pay, has not done so
this year, causing a lot of frustration as the alternative
is referring them to a website link that is not working,
says Christopher Wambua. The ministry, he appeals,
should either upload the demand notes on the website
or revert to the old manual system using hard copy.
As a patriotic Kenya, I am itching to pay, but the government does not seem keen to help me do so. His

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
Kenya Power should address interruptions

M
any electricity consumers assume that the

frequent power interruptions and outages are due
to a shortfall of power being
generated. There is also the
perception that the increase in
connections has overloaded the
supply side.
They are wrong. There is
more than enough power being
generated and transmitted
throughout the country. Kenya
now has a good mix of geothermal, hydro, thermal, and wind
power and is indeed in the position to export its surplus.
Installed capacity is around
2,300 megawatts and peak demand is in the region of 1,600
megawatts, so there is provision
for any increased demand in the
foreseeable future
When we hear our leaders
boasting about the number of
plants that are being built or
coming on stream, we are literally being led down the garden
path, to the extent that we run
the risk of generating too much
power.
That is not the immediate
challenge, nor is it the answer
to our many outages. The
problem lies with the low- and
medium-voltage power that
goes mostly to domestic consumers.
Around two-thirds of the
THE CUTTING EDGE
ROBERT SHAW
Kenya Power needs
to be subjected to
the same stringent
commercial disciplines
and timelines that apply
in the private sector
power transmitted is termed as

low voltage. This is what most
consumers receive. That operation has on average 24,000
faults a month, which is why
many of us suer from frequent
or periodic unannounced blackouts.
Conversely, the medium-voltage operation averages around
450 faults a month.
The ball lies largely in the
court of Kenya Power as it is
the body that is charged with
the distribution of the lowvoltage transmission and the

maintenance of it.
The challenge, therefore, is
the quality of the transmission
and the maintenance of the
operation, especially if Kenya
Power continues to increase
the number of the consumers it
supplies.
We need to invest heavily in
the distribution network. That
means subjecting the whole of
the Kenya Power operation to a
massive management and engineering makeover.
Let me give an example. Not
long ago, Kenya Power grandly
informed us that it was phasing out the hard copy billing
system in favour of the e-bill.
In theory this was an excellent
progression. In practice, what
many consumers are getting
are estimates or no bills at all.
At worst, a consumer ends up
chasing Kenya Power to plead
for an updated current bill. That
is a time-consuming expenditure of negative human energy.
Trying to deal with Kenya
Powers billing department is
like subjecting your body to a
blood pressure test. Even what
should be a straightforward
operation of getting a meter is
akin to being asked to climb a
mountain.
That should not be the case.
Kenya Power consumers are

paying customers who are
promptly disconnected if the
they do not settle their bills on
time. Kenya Power is providing
a service, for which it charges
the consumers a commercial
rate.
If its IT operation is struggling under the strain, then
substantial time, resources,
and money should be invested
to get it working and to ensure
that consumers are frequently
provided with the right information.
The same principle applies to
the actual mechanical operation
of provision and maintenance.
When there is an unannounced
outage or blackout, it is a timeconsuming and often fruitless
task to try to nd out the cause
and the approximate duration
of the failure.
Last, but not least, Kenya
Power needs to be subjected to
the same stringent commercial
disciplines and timelines that
apply in the private sector. It
may purport those principles
but it has some way to go before walking the talk. The tail
end of its era as a parastatal is
still visible.

Finally, rain is here and
its a reason to celebrate
After weeks of intense temperatures, the country is now receiving
heavy rains. Various economic activities had been adversely aected
by the sizzling heat. It has hardly
been a week since the rain started
and, already, Kenyans are complaining about its negative eects,
especially ash oods in Nairobi.
Authorities must ensure that there
are no cases of water contamination, blackouts are curbed, drainage
systems work properly and children
are kept safe in ood-prone areas.
Kenyans should view the rain as a
blessing, not a curse.

Insecurity forces teachers

to stay away from schools
Among the many challenges that
schools in the northeastern region
face is lack of teachers. Again,
most of the few available ones are
unqualied. Students are unable to
acquire the same skills and knowledge from teachers as their peers
elsewhere. This has led to poor performance in examinations, rise in
school dropout numbers, early marriages and truancy. The government
must addres this insecurity issue.

Mr President, act now
President Uhuru Kenyatta should
crack down on corrupt leaders.
There is a lot of misuse of public
funds through awed procurement and tendering processes.
This money can be utilised better
for youth empowerment but it all
ends up in leaders pockets. The
President should have these leaders
punished severely to serve as an example to others. Merely talking will
not help to end corruption.

plan despite resistance
Nairobi Governor Dr Evans
Kidero should hear the business
community out on the competition for space with matatus. The
urban space is shrinking due to the

Therefore, the practice where urban

resistance is expected especially
from matatu owners and mandarines who reap from parking lots.

TALKING POINT
SHORT TAKES
Disrupting State of the Nation was

unwise, disrespectful and immature
Emails from correspondents
most disagreeable and

utterly unpropitious episode was witnessed in the
National Assembly chambers on
Thursday when President Uhuru
Kenyatta rose to deliver the annual
State of the Nation address.
Akin to the uncouth and barbaric behaviour only witnessed
in county assembly halls, where
chairs y left, right and centre in
the heat of sessions, opposition
MPs chose to vehemently blow
their whistles to express their
disapproval of the event.
The speech deals with, among
other issues, the state of the
economy and security and
progress in advancing national
values. An obligation of the President as stipulated in Chapter 10
the Constitution, nobody should
stop him from delivering it.
Parliaments standing orders
are clear that the President must
be heard in silence then and
anyone who does not want to be
party to it may leave the chamber. The disrespect displayed by
the MPs is, therefore, indicative
of the mediocrity that laces the
thoughts of our leaders.
Conventional wisdom states that
no person can be without imperfection. But in attempting to criticise another partys failings, the
critic must ensure objectivity and
decency. In an eort to make good
their threat to disrupt the speech,
one may wonder, why didnt the
clique of rogue legislators call a
press conference and not only
point out the governments failures

but also suggest remedies?
It is disheartening that the MPs
could resort to such mischievous,
third-rate theatrics meant to hoodwink their constituents into thinking they were working while, in
reality, it was a desperate attempt
at salvaging their waning political
fortunes after massively underperforming in their respective areas.
One must pass a certain moral
threshhold in order to be deemed
credible enough to criticise the
failings of others.

The disruption of the Presidents
State of Nation address by opposition MPs cannot go unchallenged.
This is an event well documented
in the Constitution and which
must be respected. Disrupting it

is, therefore, not only irresponsible
but tantamount to treason.
There are constitutional and civilised ways of removing the government in power. The MPs should
deliberate on issues soberly and
not resort to the law of the jungle.
MICHAEL MWANGI GITURA, Thika
***
The opposition MPs act of whistling in Parliament to stop the
Presidents State of the Nation address was unwise.
Heckling the President will not
bring change. They should instead
put their ideas to debate, not politicise the speech without hearing it.
Citizens want development, not
noise, from our leaders.
MWAU MULI, Maseno
Focus of new curriculum must be instilling values in learners

Education without values, as
useful as it is, seems rather to
make man a more clever devil is
a quote attributed to the British
novelist CS Lewis.
When somebody has gathered
much knowledge and can reproduce it orally or in written form
to pass it to others, he or she is
said to be knowledgeable.
If such gathering of knowledge
was done systematically, for instance through a formal system
such as school or other learning
institution, he/she is said to be
learned.
If learning is just for the sake

of gathering knowledge, the
result is that you have taught
people who can only reproduce
what they have learnt.
Learning, which can make the
learner more useful to him/herself
or society, is referred to as education. The level of learning can
be determined through tests and
examinations but education is
demonstrated by eciency in
worthwhile productivity.
To be ecient in productivity does not only entail ability
but also the attitude. Proper
education, therefore, should have

the capacity to transform ones
values.
Education makes one civilised.
Learning that does not inculcate
these values is sugarcoating of
barbarians; they outwardly look
well groomed but lack values.
Recent happenings in Kenya
have proved that there are many
learned but uneducated people. Hopefully, the envisaged
curriculum will emphasise on
transformational education rather
than supercial learning.
JAMES NGUMY, Karuri
MIGINGO TUSSLE: The Kenyan government should not give up on Migingo Island. The welfare of Kenyans living there
is at stake. That island is of importance to
them because shing is their sole source of
livelihood. Migingo belongs to Kenya and
so the struggle to reclaim it must continue.
And if our government really has to give
it up to Uganda, then the Kenyans staying
there should be given better places to settle and also jobs. Kenyans depending on
the island are already living in anguish and
they are still made to suer more by those
in power. How are they expected to pay
taxes when their only source of income is
at risk? The government should, therefore,
think twice before making any decision,
even though Kenya has many islands. Ofcials should know there are people whose
lives depend on the half-acre piece of rock.
LILIAN MITCHELLE, Migingo
DONT INCITE: Politicians should be
warned against inciting people and funding
gangs ahead of the 2017 General Election.
They should not incite the masses at their
political rallies or incubate illegal gangs.
Leaders should be warned they will be
held accountable for any incitement case
reported against them. Those with intent to
cause havoc must be tamed in order to save
lives of Kenyans and avoid repeat clashes
during the election. The President also
needs to secure and unite the country.

STUDENTS RIOTS: Stoning motorists,
breaking into shops, damaging street lights
and generally disturbing the peace is common whenever university students protest
in the city. Its time strict measures were
taken to ensure our institutions deliver students who can oer solutions and not add
onto the ones we have. University of Nairobi students had a right to protest against
irregularities in their elections. But they
should always remember that they have an
obligation to focus on their studies and the
elections are not a do-or-die aair. They
must realise that Kenya needs focused people. It is time the university administration
found a lasting solutions to their problems.
VERONICA NJERI KIMANI, Kiambaa
CONTAMINATED MEAT: I writing in
respond to a story carried by the Daily Nation on Friday about an incident where two
people died in Bomet County after eating
contaminated meat. To me, we missed the
point by only reacting to the case instead of
nding the root cause of the problem. Whoever eats meat from a dead animal is a scavenger. It is hard to dierentiate the meat of
an animal that died from a disease from one
that is healthy. The business of selling meat,
especially in rural areas, is a time bomb that
will soon explode with devastating damage
to human beings. Some butchers take advantage of peoples ignorance to sell meat from
diseased carcasses, passing it o as safe.

What does Jubilee deserve after the State of the Nation address?
What is your view

of the chaos that
marred Wetangulas
presidential bid
launch in Kakamega?
LINCOLN KINYUA: Regardless of Jubilees

progress in certain sectors, I still feel the more important sectors touching the man on the street were
not addressed satisfactorily. I also feel that the President should address the nation from State House to
avoid the trac that was experienced and also enable a smooth running of other activities.
BOB OWINO: The coalition deserves accolades
because its economic roadmap is laudable.
ABUGA HEZBON: The move by the government

to abolish licensing fee and levies is positive towards
the improvement of coee farming in Kenya. It
should come up with more policies that benet coffee farmers since coee is one of the major agricultural exports.
PAUL KAGO: Its a shame that some Members of
Parliament disrupted the Presidents State of Nation
address, giving a bad image of Parliament and the
nation. They should know that the President is the

symbol of national unity.
JOE KIBII: Money for counties development, including the Equalisation Fund, should be released
by The National Treasury upon receiving proposals
approved by the County Assembly. There must be
proof of public participation on the project identied
n prioritized. Tender must gave been given n the appropriate bids done n most deserving bid awarded.

HIDDEN TREASURES
Its time to unleash our potential

D
o you know that we

have acres of diamonds right here
in Kenya and that they are
yours for the taking? If you
dont, then you cannot have
heard of the Acres of Diamonds story and it is time
that you did.
The story was told to
Russell Conwell by a tour
guide while on a visit to
Baghdad in 1870. Conwell,
a church minister and motivational speaker, retold the
story thousands of times.
It is the story of Ali
Hafed, a rich and contented
farmer who lived in ancient
Persia. Rich and contented,
that is, until a Buddhist
priest came along and lled
his mind with tales of the
most precious stones
diamonds and the things
they could buy him.
A diamond is a congealed drop of sunlight,
the old priest told him,
which is scientically true
because a diamond is a
deposit of carbon from the
sun. Then, suddenly, Ali
Hafed was poor. He was
poor because he had everything except the one thing
he now desired most diamonds!
Ali Hafed sold his farm,
left his family, and travelled
DAVID WAWERU
We could
purpose to
use our wealth
to make Kenya a
land of opportunity
where every child
has access to free
quality education
and medical care and
can be anything they
dream of becoming
long distances in search of

the elusive diamonds until,
at last, poor, tired, and dejected, he drowned himself
to end his misery. The story
does not end with the poor
mans miserable demise,
but rather, with a twist.
The man who bought Ali
Hafeds farm discovered on

it the most magnicent
diamond mine in all the
history of mankind.
The obvious moral of the
story is that we can prosper
where we are if we open
our eyes to see the wealth
that is already there. So, to
apply the moral to our local
situation, wealth is not in
some far o town or country that we aspire to live or
work in some day.
Indeed, it is where each
of us is. If you cannot see
it in your own backyard in
Tenwek, Koru, Matayos,
Maai Mahiu, or Awasi, you
are not going to see it anywhere else in the world.
No one will deny that
ours is a country of potential often unrecognised
or unfullled. We fail to see
the gems that often lie hidden in plain sight under our
very noses.
If you are a teacher,
do you see the treasures
staring back at you from
behind the desks in your
classroom? One of them
may be the doctor who will
someday nd the cure for
the disease festering in you.
Do you encourage her when
she gets it wrong or do you
tell her that she will never
amount to anything?
Do you see the treasure

in the young woman who
washes your clothes and
cooks your meals or the
young man who tends your
garden? Have you taken the
time to understand their
dreams and abilities? They
may be intellects who will
become innovators and inventors.
If you have employed
in your company a recent
graduate, so fresh out of
the classroom that they
still sparkle with idealism
and fresh ideas, do you try
to squash their enthusiasm
with an unfair wage or
make them feel subordinate, inferior, and to think
only when called upon to
do so?
Do we fail to recognise,
or worse, kill our countrys
potential?
Another lesson from the
Acres of Diamonds story
greed can burn you. Ali
Hafed was already a rich
man, but did not value the
things he possessed when
he heard about diamonds.
What makes an individual rich? Diamonds!
Ali Hafed would say. Plots
and acres of land! Some of
us, Kenyans, might declare.
Lots of mullah in the
bank! Are we in danger of
losing our soul?

Let us not get caught
up in loving diamonds
and equating money and
property with success. The
love of money for its own
sake breeds ugly ospring
such as corruption, avarice,
and depravity. We need to
carefully examine our individual and national values,
our individual and nations
purpose.
The purpose of our
wealth and resources
may be to amass personal
power, have exotic living
and preferential treatment.
This is a zero-sum game in
which only a few win at the
expense of the majority.
We could, however, purpose to use our wealth to
make Kenya a land of opportunity where every child
has access to free quality
education and medical care
and can be anything they
dream of becoming.
If our purpose is to use
our wealth for the greater
good, to help build the potential all around us, I bet
you that our individual satisfaction will also increase
exponentially.

Kenya continues to import more

and export less, while our production levels drop and we continue to
sell our large companies to foreign
interests. As a result, tax revenue has
decreased and we now have fewer
Kenyan-owned companies to produce wealth and generate taxes. Our
government, already drowning in foreign debt, must continue to borrow
to operate and pay its bills.
No country can exist on debt,
especially when there is little probability of ever repaying it. How can
we continue to delude ourselves that
we are a superpower in the East African region? Our economy can only
be temporarily sustained by debt. As
we witnessed briey with the Jubilee
administration, our bubble will burst
and then we will have a 1980s-like
economic crash that occurred in a
time of seeming prosperity.
Our productive capabilities
have become uncompetitive and

alternative (continuing on our current path).

church where they held the entire service as they
castigated elders for failing to listen to their plight.
Ms Ann Wambui, one of the faithful, said elders
took over the community health centre constructed
through harambee and mediation has yielded no
fruit. The priest and elders, who were holed up in a
separate meeting, refused to comment on the story.

decision to assent
to a Bill that changes
county headquarters has
triggered protests in his
support base in the central
region.
The County Governments
(Amendment) Bill, 2014
was passed in the Senate
and Parliament and last
week, the President signed
it into law.
The law designates towns
where the county headquarters will be based.
However, the law has
triggered demonstrations
in counties where leaders
have been at loggerheads
over the location of headquarters.
It is row with both an
economic and political repercussions for residents
of Kirinyaga, Laikipia and
Kiambu counties.
Governors and their opponents are supporting
particular towns to gain
political mileage.
Traders and land speculators who bought land
in some of the areas may
lose or gain depending on

where the new law places
headquarters.
The county hard hit by
the new law is Kirinyaga,
whose headquarters has
been moved from the current
Kutus Town to Kerugoya.
The county is already

LAW ENDS
KIAMBU WARS
One of the governors
who has borne the
brunt of moving
headquarters is
Kiambus William
Kabogo. After the
elections in 2013, he
moved to Thika town
saying the oces in
Kiambu were not in
good condition. This led
to a rebellion by MPs
from the region who
accused the county
chief of ignoring the
will of the people. The
new law stipulates
headquarters will
remain Kiambu. Kabogo
has moved oces back
to Kiambu town.
building a Sh450m office

block in Kutus, which is
almost complete.
So when news ltered in
that the new law moves the
headquarters from Kutus to
Kerugoya, residents took to
the streets in protest and
accused the President of assenting to the Bill blindly
without considering their
views.
Led by the Gichugu MP
Njogu Barua, the residents
said they will move to court
to block implementation of
the law.
We will resist any move
to transfer the headquarters
from Kutus. The president
has disregarded our views,
said one of the residents, Mr
Cyrus Muthengi.
The move comes just
weeks after President
Kenyata diverted a highway that was supposed to
pass through the county to
Muranga.
We support the President but he is taking us for
granted. He has taken too
much from us in just one
year, said another resident,
Mr Simon Mwangi.
In 2012, leaders voted
and agreed that the county
headquarters should be in
Kutus.
Yesterday, they accused
Senator Daniel Karaba of
sleeping on the job.
Where was Karaba when
the Bill was being debated
and passed? He is a liability

to the people of Kirinyaga
and he must go, said Mr
Barua.
But Mr Karaba denied the
allegations.
I do not know what
happened. Maybe it was a
printing error and I should
not be held responsible for
what happened, he said.
In Laikipia, the new law
declaring Rumuruti as the
county headquarters has
split Laikipia West and their
Laikipia East counterparts
right down the middle.
Signed the Bill
While those from west

welcome the law, Laikipia
East residents are furious
since the President signed
the Bill barely three weeks
after the High Court in Nyeri
ruled that the headquarters
should be in Nanyuki.
We are going back to the
same court next week to
seek guidance, a Nanyuki
businessman, Mr Sammy
Ndungu said.
Residents of Laikipia East
see the shift to Rumuruti as a
further alienation of the eastern side of the county by the
populous west residents.
The fact that Governor
Joshua Irungu, Senator GG
Kariuki, Woman Representative Jane Apollos and County
Assembly Speaker Patrick
Mariru hail from west has
not helped matters.
One of the
buildings that
will house the
Kirinyaga county
headquarters in
Kutus Town, which
is being built at a
cost of Sh450 million. The new law,
signed last week,
stipulates that
county headquarters should now
move to Kerugoya
Town, making
such a building
irrelevant and a
waste of public
funds.

County invests Sh20m in drive

to woo youths into polytechnics
Embu county has invested Sh20m in an ambitious
drive to make local polytechnics attractive to
the youth. The county has rebranded all the 25
institutions which were commonly referred to as
village polytechnics, to vocational training centres
and started improving infrastructure to make it
attractive. Embu County Education CEC Jamleck
Muturi said the government had allocated Sh13.5
million to improve learning institutions and a
further Sh6.5 million for bursaries to increase the
number of artisans. He said many people, even
with low grades were shunning the institutions
since they have a bad name, and seeking bridging
courses to join universities and other tertiary
education institutions. He was speaking at Nembure

While some were later appointed

a majority of the ocers are still in

county secretaries have continued
to stay in the office even after the

@gbwisa

here was a security scare

in a students hostel on
Saturday night after a
gun-toting landlady threatened
its occupants with a rearm,
causing a stampede.
Students who spoke to
the Daily Nation claimed
the woman, identied as Ms
Rebecca Saddam, brandished
a pistol as she evicted 40 of
their colleagues, her tenants at
Miracle Hostel in Eldoret Town,
over rent arrears.
Stella Cherop, a 21-year-old
rst-year education student at
Moi Universitys Town Campus,
said they had paid rent to one
of the tenants, from whom they
sub-let their room, for onward
transmission to the landlady.
We usually pay the tenant
who has leased the hostel
Sh4,500, then she pays the
landlady, said Ms Cherop.
This is the arrangement that
we have had since 2012.
The drama began at 9am on
Thursday, just as the students
prepared to go for morning
classes, when a caretaker came
to inform them to vacate.
We wondered why he was
telling us to vacate the hostel yet
we had paid rent, Ms Cherop
recalled. I had paid the previous
day. But we all stepped outside
the gate, which he closed.
Some of the students
proceeded to class while others
remained outside the hostel.
The students had to seek
alternative accommodation on
Thursday night. Since the hostel
remained locked on Friday, they
attempted to pick the locks to
collect their belongings.
When the security guard
saw that he informed the
landlady, and after few minutes
more guards were called in to
remove us from the hostel,
said Ms Euphy Okelo, 21, an
English literature student at
the University of Eldoret.
The students made a formal
Kisumu
Piling presure
report at Central Police Station

at 4pm and an officer was
assigned to accompany them
back to the hostel.
He instructed the main
tenant to allow the students
to stay as she sorted out the
matter, said Ms Okelo, Ms
Cherops roommate. But in the
evening, the landlady came with
reinforcement to evict us.
The young women went
back to the police station and
met the deputy OCS, who called
the lessor and instructed her to
sort out the rent issue with the
landlady and allow the students
to collect their belongings.
Never seen a gun before
We were packing our

belongings at around 9pm when
we heard commotion in other
rooms, Ms Cherop narrated.
Soon the landlady barged
in and pointed a pistol at us,
telling us to get out.
She came towards where I
stood and hit me with the gun
on my left nger as I tried to
cover my head.

Added a shocked Ms Okelo:
We are hopeless; we have
classes and our belongings are
locked in the hostel. I have not
had a change of clothes since
Thursday.
Ms Cherop was taken to Cider
Hospital for treatment.
Eldoret West divisional police
boss Tom Achiya conrmed the
incident but said the landlady
had gone into hiding and ocers
were searching for her.
Yes, there was such an
incident and we have requested
all the students to come to
the station and record their
statements as we search for
the landlady, who has so far
gone missing mysteriously,
said Mr Achiya.
Police reports show that
the lessor, a business woman
in town, had rent arrears of
Sh114,000. She also told the
police that some of the students
had not remitted their rent.
There has been concern over
misuse of guns by civilians in
recent days, forcing the National
Gun Owners Association of
Kenya to call on the Interior
Cabinet Secretary and InspectorGeneral of Police to take stern
action against licensed civilian
gun holders found guilty of
misusing their weapons.

Politicians banned from campaigning in ACK churches

BY KAZUNGU SAMUEL
Politicians have been banned from
playing politics in Anglican Chuch of
Kenya (ACK) sanctuaries.
Mombasa diocese bishop Julius Kalu
said hes unhappy with politicians who
flock churches ahead of elections
pretending to seek divine intervension
when all they want are podiums to
popularise themselves.
Bisho Kalu said politicians will not

be allowed to engage in political talks
when in their churches ahead of the
2017 General Election.
A directive has been issued to
all ACK church leaders and their
committees with strict instructions
not to allow politicians to take
advantage of church services to
campaign, he said.
We know politicians would want
to visit churches to push their own

agenda. We will not allow that. A
circular to the eect has been issued to
all Anglican church leaders including
preachers not to allow them to speak
politics during church services.
Bishop Kalu who was anked by
Nominated senator Emma Mbura
and Rabai MP William Kamoti spoke
during the rededication service of East
and Central Africas rst St Pauls
Church in Rabai. The church was

built in 1887 by pioneer missionaries
Ludwig Krapf and Johannes Rebmann
who arrived in 1840s.
In a move that is likely to generate
a heated debate between the clergy
and politicians, Bishop Kalu said
they have taken the decision to
ensure the church is respected and
that politicians dont use it to divide
the congregation.
Kisumu Deputy Governor Ruth

Odinga has been piling presure on
local county secretary Humphrey
Nakitari to leave.
As far as we are concerned, his
term ended on March 4. Most of his
colleagues have been recalled. He
should not report back as his continued
stay is illegal, Ms Odinga said.
In Kisii, the MCAs last Wednesday
want county secretary Johnstone Ndege
to leave saying his continued stay in
oce illegally.
This county assembly resolves
that Mr Johnstone Ndege should leave
oce immediately and the position be
advertised to have a replacement, the
MCAs said in a motion. It is not clear
how many counties have debated the
appointment of county secretaries.

NLC gives tea

rms more
time on leases
BY TOM MATOKE
Multinational tea companies in the
county have been given an additional
21 days to submit information on
the status of their land leases to the
National Land Commission (NLC).
The NLC said they would take action
against those that fail to comply after
the expiry of the 21-day window that
comes at the end on a 14-day ultimatum
previously issued.
NLC Nandi County Secretary
Solomon Kithinji on Saturday issued
new summons to the top management
of the tea companies in the county to
provide the lease information.
The 14-day notice which the NLC
gave the tea companies has expired and
the commission is giving them a new
notice of 21 more days, he said.
He said according to the Constitution,
all multi-national tea companies leases
were reduced from 999 to 99 years
and by the time of passing the law in
2010, some of the companies leases
had expired.

Background
In 2013, the Kenya Government unveiled a new transport policy aimed at leasing of vehicles. This was a departure from the prevailing practice
of government purchasing and maintaining vehicles for its use. The Leasing Programme was expected to include insurance, scheduled and
unscheduled maintenance, replacement of non-functional vehicles, and fleet monitoring.
The new Leasing Programme that was implemented on a pilot basis was expected to ensure value for services provided, secure improved delivery of
public services, create more jobs and pursue enhanced value for money. Other anticipated benefits included securing a comprehensive and capable
network of service centres, world-class technical training resources and top-notch fleet management team. This was expected to secure improved
cash flow management, professional fleet management, enhanced fleet availability and utilization, better driver training and effective countrywide
support. Currently the Government has a total of 3280 vehicles under the leasing programme.
Rationale and Objectives of the Study
The Government of Kenya clearly stated its desire of securing improved utilization of available scarce public resources for improved public service
delivery. The Vehicle Leasing Programme was one of the key interventions in this effort. Desirous of enhancing the performance of its transport fleet,
the Government of Kenya wishes to review the implementation of the Vehicle Leasing Programme for the period July 2013 to December 2015. The
general objective of this review will be to determine the performance of the Leasing Programme against the stated policy goals and subsequently
identify the necessary interventions for improving the Vehicle Leasing Programme in the subsequent phases.

5. Determine the performance of the Vehicle Leasing Programme from the point of view of mission critical stakeholders;
6. Make comprehensive and detailed actionable recommendations on measures necessary for enhancing performance of the Vehicle Leasing
Programme in the Kenyan Public Service.

Presidents family applies for a

BY MWAKERA MWAJEFA
President Uhuru Kenyattas
family has lost the title deed of
a 1.33-hectare parcel, promting
it to apply for a provisional
certicate from the Ministry
of Lands.
In a Friday Kenya Gazette,
Mombasa registrar of titles DJ
Safari said sucient evidence
had been adduced to show that
the document was lost.
He said after 60 days of
the notice, I shall issue a
provisional certicate of title,
provided no objection has been
received.
The registrar quoted the
registered owner of the land as

Mzee Jomo Kenyatta of P. o. Box

Dr Swazuri said notices of
such nature alert the public of

The notice provides the 60day period in case of a dispute,
he said.
Asked whether he was aware
of the Kenyatta familys loss of

the negative.
I am not aware of the loss but
it is not strange for a landowner

Last month, Mr Mbugua

those associating him with the

Yesterday, Mr Mbugua said he
could not respond to the matter
as he has not been served with

During the burial of one of

Mr Nasieku further said in
his petition that in February he

I wrote to the governor
Mbugua to explain and justify his
relationship with the outlawed

said Mr Nasieku.
He said last January the

he county headquarters
in Eldoret Town sits on
grabbed land and has no
title deed, Governor Jackson
Mandago has said.
Mr Mandago further claimed
that the person who grabbed the
land during the Grand Coalition
regime has acquired a title deed
and is ghting to evict the devolved government from the
property through the courts.
There is an individual who is
claiming ownership of the land on
which the county headquarters is
situated and has acquired the title
deed, yet its a known fact that the
property belongs to the public,
said Governor Mandago.
The county headquarters,
which overlooks the EldoretNairobi highway, hosts the oces
of Governor Mandago, Deputy
Governor Daniel Chemno, the
county court, Public Service
Board and County Executive
Member for Finance.

Other oces located in the
premises, which was under
the defunct Eldoret Municipal
Council, include revenue collection departments and the County
Hall, where socioeconomic events
are held by both the county and
national governments.
Mr Mandago said the land
grabbers have also laid claim
to other public utility land earmarked for mega infrastructural
development projects in the town
that were set to be undertaken
by his administration and the
national government.
The governor spoke on
Wednesday when he addressed
the Eldoret business community
at a meeting hosted by Kenya
Manufacturers Associations
Uasin Gishu chapter in Eldoret
Town. The leader said he has
fought through legal channels
to reclaim the land back to the
county government in vain.
The county government has
been battling the alleged grabber
at the centre of the prime piece
of land belonging to the public
but the matter seems not to end

anytime soon, he said.
Mr Mandago regretted that
the regional government has
been spending colossal sums
of money on legal fees over the
land case, noting that the Judiciary was taking too long to dispose
of the matter.
This and many other cases
related to public utility properties
belonging to the county is slowing down my quest to discharge
the core mandate I was elected to
deliver, said Mr Mandago.
Reiterating that his government was committed to serving
all residents of the county without
fear or favour, he called upon the
public to work with his government in ghting corruption.
In a tour of North Rift last year,
the Dr Muhammad Swazuri-led
National Land Commission
(NLC) heard the Eldoret State
Lodge is among properties including six other State lodges
annexed by a private developer and new titles issued to the
purported owners. He had issued
caveats against the lands.

The County Executive for
Lands in Uasin Gishu, Mr
Robert Ngesirey, reported
to the National Land
Commission (NLC) that
more than 500 public
plots in Eldoret had been
grabbed. They include
the Governors Oce, the
High Court, Ardhi House,
Administration Police
lines, the Fire Station and
the Uasin Gishu District
Hospital.
Chairman Dr Muhammad
Swazuri said NCL had
launched investigations
into how land belonging

Help is on the way, ocial tells locals amid protests

BY KALUME KAZUNGU
The government will this week
send another consignment of relief
food to help those living around Boni
Forest.
Locals have not been able to produce their own food or live normally
because of the ongoing Operation
Linda Boni meant to ush Al Shabaab
militants out of the forest.
Mr James ole Serian who is
spearheading the operation said the
government is committed to ensure
the safety and comfort of locals even

as it ups the war on terrorism.
The government launched the security operation on September 11, 2005
after terrorists attacked various parts
of the county and later disappeared
into the forest.
Recently, the government posted
more deputy and assistant county
commissioners to the county to enhance the war on terror.
Residents who are mainly hunters
and gatherers, have not been able to
access the forest, their main source of
livelihood, because of the operation.

The government has promised to
support the affected communities
through relief aid until the time the
operation will come to a close.
Mr Serian said: The relief aid programme is still on for Boni people.
The government has been supplying
them with food and as we speak, a new
consignment is on the way.
Meanwhile, he said the government
is also working with other stakeholders, including the county government,
to oer locals health services.
Recently, we organised health

clinics at Kiangwe Market where
locals were treated free of charge,
Mr Serian added.
I wish to assure all that the aid
will continue to come as long as the
operation is on, said Mr Serian.
However, residents complained that
the national government has neglected
them since the operation was launched
seven months ago
Meanwhile, Lamu West MP Julius
Ndegwa says the operation has improved security in Lamu.
A Member of the County Assembly

has raised concern over the slow pace
of development projects. Loima MCA
Jackson Lowoi, also the County Assemblys Committee on Implementation chairman, said despite this being
the nal quarter of the nancial year,
more than 90 per cent of projects
were incomplete. There is no borehole, Early Childhood Development
Centre or health centre, or even a
road, that is completed, he said.

County Speaker
says Muturi not
fair to Wandayi
BY NELCON ODHIAMBO
County Assembly Speaker George
Okode yesterday criticised the recent
ruling by National Assembly Speaker
Justin Muturi that could see Ugunja
MP Opiyo Wandayi suspended from
Parliament until December.
Mr Okode termed the ruling irrational
and unacceptable and not in line with
Section 111 of Parliaments standing
orders. He said the MPs oence did
not, in any way, relate to the ruling.
At a press conference yesterday, Mr
Okode asked Mr Muturi to reconsider
his decision since the ruling will not
only aect the MP individually but also
those he represents in Parliament.
I think the Speaker erred when he
made the ruling of blocking Mr Wandayi
from attending parliamentary proceedings until the end of this session, said
Mr Okode. I compare Mr Muturis action with that of a person who blew up
a termite hill with a bomb.
Reading mischief in the manner in
which Mr Muturi conducted the proceedings during the State of the Nation
address by President Uhuru Kenyatta,
he said the Speaker should have warned
the MP of the consequences of his behaviour prior to invoking the rule.
Normal procedure recommends that
a member is barred from attending a
minimum of eight and a maximum of
24 sittings, he said. Mr Muturi showed
outright bias in the Assembly.
This was openly seen by the irrational rulings he imposed on the Cord
members without issuing warnings. A
Speaker must always be neutral.
Mr Okode also asked the National
Assembly Powers and Privileges Committee, which is set to deliberate on Mr
Wandayis case, to be diligent enough
and come up with a fair ruling.

Makueni Governor Kivutha

The governor said the main

objective of the bloc was to foster trade and free movement

The sentiments were echoed by Kitui Governor Julius

He said the region had

like River Athi, which if exploited could transform the
counties from brown to

Dr Malombe said the counties had mineral resources
like coal, iron and rare earth
minerals, but added that the
most important resource for
the region was its people.
He said leaders should
lobby for the construction of
KibweziKitui road as it would
open up the region and reduce
the cost of doing business.
Dr Malombe said the road
would benet about nine counties, including Makueni, Kitui,

NMK cites historic site
as among those that

due to rising sea levels

limate change is threatening

most historic sites across the
Coast region, National Museums of Kenya (NMK) has warned.
Director-General Mzalendo Kibunjia
said heritage sites and landmarks such
as the Vasco da Gama Pillar in Malindi,
Fort Jesus in Mombasa and the Old
British Customs House in Vanga, all
along the shoreline, face an uncertain
future due to rising sea levels.
Dr Kibunjia, who spoke to the Nation in Malindi, said rising sea levels,
fuelled by melting glaciers and ice
caps, threaten to swallow up these
landmarks.
He said the Vasco da Gama Pillar
and Fort Jesus, a Unesco world heritage site, and the Old British Customs
House could soon collapse because the
coral foundation underneath is being
threatened by strong tidal waves because of the rising sea levels.
The NMK boss said a recent study
by heritage and marine experts from
Unesco has warned that if things remain unchanged, then most historic
and cultural sites could be swallowed
up by sea water.
The study revealed that the sites
which are among Kenyas greatest
tourist attractions are also threatened
by ever sea waves, he said.
He said climate change is expected
to lead to more severe storms, which

Dr Kibunjia, however, said NMK has
developed a rescue programme to

is the state corporation that manages
museums, sites and monuments will
spend Sh100 million to rehabilitate
Fort Jesus and a further Sh15 million

to protect them from the vagaries of
the weather.
We are doing everything possible to
fortify these historic and cultural edices to ensure they are not submerged
in water and are preserved for the sake
of posterity, said Dr Kibunjia.
He said Fort Jesus plays a central
role in promoting tourism in the region, especially around Mombasas
Old Town, after attaining the world
heritage site status.
It should therefore not be allowed
to disappear due to erosion, rising
sea levels or any other season, Dr
Kibunjia said.

Zuma is likely to remain in oce

despite pressure on him to quit
It is only Parliament that has
the power to remove president
and his party enjoys majority

www.nation.co.ke
s pressure continues to
mount on South African
President Jacob Zuma to
step down following a scathing
constitutional court judgement
against him, analysts say he is
likely to continue as president
because he enjoys much support
within the ruling African National
Congress (ANC).
On Thursday, the Constitutional
Court ruled that Zuma violated
the Constitution by not paying
the money spent on non-security
upgrades at his private home as
recommended by Public Protector
Thuli Madonsela.
South African opposition parties have vowed to do all within
their power to ensure that Zuma
is removed from oce.
Democratic Alliance (DA) leader
Mmusi Maimane said his party
wants Zuma impeached.
President Zuma must be removed from oce. He has failed
to defend the Constitution of the

republic. We have led a motion
to impeach President Zuma. We
believe action must be taken, Mr
Maimane said.
At the upcoming local elections South Africans must come
out and say it cannot be President
Zuma alone but that it was the
fault of the entire ANC. We need
a constitutional order that is
functional and a country that will
take us forward, Maimane said.
Congress of the People leader
Mousia Lekota is also calling for
Zuma to go, saying that Urgent
action needs to be taken. We cannot continue running our country
with an individual who has broken
his oath of oce.
But analysts say it is only Parliament that has the power to remove
Zuma. However, they say the ANC
will use their majority in Parliament to protect Zuma and make
sure he remains in oce.
For the impeachment motion to
succeed, it requires a two-thirds
majority. This will be out of the
reach of the opposition.
The ANC Womens League has
already come out in full support
of President Zuma.
We have learnt lessons from
the judgement and wish to state
it equivocally, unambiguously and

categorically clear that we rmly
stand behind the ANC President
Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma, who
even before the ruling, indicated
his preparedness to pay in accordance with the Public Protectors
recommendations, the league said
in a statement.
The ANC Youth League
(ANCYL) also threw its weight
behind Mr Zuma, saying it does
not believe that Zuma should step
down because the Constitutional
Court did not say the president
must step down.
Meanwhile, the South African
parliament will next week discuss
an opposition motion to impeach
President Zuma.
The speaker of parliament
Baleka Mbete told journalists
that the move by the Democratic
Alliance (DA) would be considered
on April 5.
The DA is pushing for Zuma to
be impeached after the Constitutional Court on Thursday ruled
that he had failed to uphold, defend and respect the constitution
in ignoring the ombudswomans
directives to repay a portion of
public funds. (Xinhua, Agencies)
See commentary page 32
Decision
ANC MUST NOW

TAKE KEY STEP
All eyes are now on
the ANC after the party
said it will give further
reaction after studying
the judgment. The
ANC rearmed its full
condence in the judiciary
and the upholding rule of
law in South Africa.
Ordinary South Africans
have also rallied behind
those calling for Zuma to

Zimbabwe to compensate white farmers in land reform

HARARE, Sunday
The
Zimbabwean
government has begun
compensating former white
commercial farmers who lost
land under the controversial
and at times volatile fast-track
land reform program at the
turn of the century, a cabinet
minister said.
Lands and Rural Resettlement Minister Douglas
Mombeshora said to date
the government had fully paid
compensation to 240 former
white commercial farmers
and partially compensated
17 others. The government,
he said, acquired 6,240 farms
which is approximately 14.5

million hectares of land that
belonged to former white
commercial farmers during
the land reform program,
out of which 1,519 farms had
been evaluated to be eligible
for compensation.
The minister was speaking
at a one-day workshop to
gather input from stakeholders in order to come up with a

consensus on the compensation mechanisms.
The compensation pledge
is included in the debt clearance strategy the government
submitted to its multilateral
creditors in Lima, Peru last
year. In the debt strategy,
Zimbabwe has pledged to

clear its 2.8 billion U.S. dollars
in arrears to the multilateral
creditors (World Bank, IMF
and AfDB) as part of eorts to
unlock fresh funding from the
creditors who stopped lending to Zimbabwe more than a
decade ago due to the arrears.

A jihadist from Tanzanian has been

executed in Southern Somalia indicate,
reports indicate.
Issa Jemes Mwesiga, who hailed from
Tanzania was executed on Saturday at
a square in Jilib town, about 400 km
south of the capital Mogadishu. He was
accused and sentenced to death by an
Al-Shabaab court for spying.
Al-Shabaab officials said that
Mwesiga was ghting alongside fellow
jihadists before becoming a spy.
Issa Jemes Mwesiga joined AlShabaab in 2013. Unfortunately, he
has now been found guilty of spying,
said an Al-Shabaab ocial who spoke
at the square as the Tanzanian jihadist
faced a ring squad.
It is not yet clear which group
or country the foreign militant was
spying for.
Residents in the area, who
anonymously contacted Somali
National News Agency for security
reasons believe that Al-Shabaab
militants in the Juba territory have
been aected by split loyalties to AlQaeda and the Islamic State in Iraq
and Syria (ISIS) or IS.
The foreign jihadist (Mwesiga) was
executed by militants led by Ahmed
Surad (one of the Al-Shabaab leaders
in the area) stated a resident as quoted
by SONNA on Saturday.
Al-Shabaab is reckoned to have a
large number of foreign jihadists widely
known as al-Mujahedeen al-Muhajereen
(migrant jihadists).

Until he was 10, he thought

across the border into Algeria.

never left.
Abdelahis family is just one
of thousands split up in the war
that broke out after Morocco an-
nexed the vast desert territory

in 1975 in a move that was not
recognised by the international
community.
Tens of thousands of Sahrawis
live as refugees in the west of
Algeria, while some of their
relatives remained hundreds
of kilometres away in Western
Sahara.
Their future today looks even
more uncertain after a diplomatic
row broke out last month when
UN chief Ban Ki-moon referred
to Western Saharas occupation during a visit to a refugee
camp.

dozens of UN personnel and
demanded the United Nations

in the refugee camp were unsure of each
others existence, he says.
Those who had ed thought those who
stayed had been jailed or had died, and
those who stayed under the occupation
thought the same about those who had
escaped.
The Polisario Front provided Abdelahi
with a second family, he says.

Issoufou has been sworn into

The leader was sworn in by
the countrys Constitutional
Court at a ceremony held in
the capital, Niamey, late on
Saturday.
Eight Heads of State, including the Senegalese leader,
MackySall and 44 Speakers of
parliament from across Africa
attended the ceremony.
Some 55 country representatives from Africa witnessed the
wearing-in.
Speaking shortly after his inauguration, President Issoufou
reinstated his Prime Minister
and reiterated his call for national unity in the supreme
interest of all of us.
The opposition boycotted the
event. They refuse to reconcile
with the ruling party in spite
a bail granted to one of their
leader, Hama Amadou.
The opposition also accuses
the ruling party of having rigged
the polls.
On March 20,2016, the

Ali Sayed Ismail with his police issue rearm in February,
sparking rare protests and
an apology from the interior ministry. Mahmud had
hired Ismail to transport his
belongings when they had a
dispute over the fare that
turned violent.
A life sentence in Egypt is
25 years. Mahmud can appeal the verdict issued by the
Cairo criminal court. President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi had
said he would ask parliament
to amend the law to toughen
sanctions for police abuses
after the incident.
Police have been on the

court ruling

ollowing Thursdays ruling

by the Constitutional that
South Africa President
Jacob Zuma violated the constitution; his ruling party today begins
awed damage control.
Incidentally, Mr Zumas middle
name is Gedleyilekisa: one who
laughs when grinding enemies,
in the Zulu language.
That might have been so until
the scathing ruling. By the way,
Mr Zuma appointed eight of the
11 judges.
Essentially, the court ruled
that Mr Zuma failed to uphold,
defend and respect the constitution. The unanimous ruling
didnt spare Parliament. It
concluded it failed to exercise
its role of checking the excesses
of the executive. Zumas African
National Congress party has an
overwhelming majority in the
house.
At issue are upgrades of Mr
Zumas rural home. The Public
Protector a constitutional oce,
ruled in 2014 that $24 million
of public money was used. The
upgrades followed an ocial assessment in 2009, when a Zuma
assumed the presidency.
The government had insisted
the upgrades were purely for

security reasons. Well, widely
circulated satellite images
show an amphitheater, cattle
enclosureZulu people love the
bovinesand a swimming pool.
Its unclear what kind of a swimmer Zuma is, but his padded size
might support a free oat.
In saying, Mr Zuma should
reimburse the state the money
spent on non-security upgrades,
the Public Protector noted: The
president tacitly accepted the
implementation of all measures
at his residence and unduly beneted from the enormous capital
investments in the non-security
installations at his private residence.
Mr Zuma shrugged everything
and showed no inclination to reimburse the state. He relied on
his appointees and a majority in
parliaments support. Worse, he
didnt defend the Public Protector against all manner of abuses
by Zuma supporters.
On Friday, a presumably
contrite Zuma went on television. The matter has caused
a lot of frustration and confu-

sion, for which I apologise, he

said, adding he will abide by

amazement, Zuma said he had
acted in good faith and never
knowingly and deliberately set
out to violate the constitution.
Additionally it all happened
because of a dierent approach
and dierent legal advice. Thats
playing victim.
The Democratic Alliance Party,
which led the case jointly with
the Economic Freedom Fighters
party, called Zumas impeachment, a long shot.
The EEF said he should step
down.
So, what does the ANC plan
to do?
Secretary-General Gwende
Mantashe said any decision
whether to sanction Zuma will
depend of a lengthy process, beginning with the partys National
Working Committee and all the
way down to the provinces, and
presumably villages. Essentially,
thats tantamount to ignoring the

court ruling.
Mr Zuma has a history of
controversies.
He has been charged and
acquitted of rape and corruption, albeit before he became
president. His government is
bloated with crony appoinctments, ocialdom corruption
and inuence peddling allegations are galore, and, if Zuma

A US Republican delegation visiting

Cairo today said President Abdel Fattah
al-Sisi was the right man at the right
time for Egypt even as Washington
criticises alleged rights abuses in the
country.
The six-member delegation led by
hawkish senator Lindsey Graham backed
Sisi in the ght against the jihadist Islamic State group, but was cautious when
asked to respond to growing accusations
of human rights violations committed
by Egyptian security forces.
Mr Graham said President Sisi was
the right man at the right time to lead
Egypt as the Islamic State group had
become a nightmare for the entire
region.
There is a desire that Daesh be
destroyed in Sinai... the president has
expressed his desire to destroy Daesh,
Graham said using the Arabic acronym
for the IS, which is spearheading an insurgency in the restive peninsula.
When asked about the human rights
situation in Egypt, Graham oered a
response in stark contrast to the present
US administration, which has regularly
criticised reported human rights abuses
in Egypt.
I understand that the country is a new
democracy and coming out of chaos,
told reporters in Cairo.
He (Sisi) has to balance security with
the rule of law... there are elements that
come to Egypt to disrupt the nation and
there are many people coming here to
help you. Dont treat them all in the same
way, the senator added.
Rights groups have accused Egypts
security services of carrying out illegal
detentions, forced disappearances of activists and torture of detainees since the
ouster of Islamist president Mohamed

Contest > It has been a bumpy race for billionaire
Tough task for Trump,

Clinton as states vote
Candidate regrets
retweeting picture
of the wife of rival
in a rare apology
WASHINGTON, Sunday
S presidential primaries spark back to life

on Tuesday after an
eventful 10-day break with clear
frontrunners Donald Trump and
Hillary Clinton both facing the
real possibility of losing in
Wisconsin.
Defeat in the north-central
state isnt likely to immediately change the course of the
overall nominating contest, but
it could serve as an indicator of
the races current status ahead of
the New York primary on April
19, where polls show both in
the lead.
Its been a bumpy period for
Trump, the Republican billionaire from New York.
Although his campaign has
seemed bulletproof up until
now, his latest controversies
including abortion, opponent
Ted Cruzs wife and a journalist
who said she was roughed up
by Trumps campaign manager
have alienated women voters
further, polls indicate.
His divisive style is also under
scrutiny, and the real estate
magnate had a surprise meeting
with Republican party chief Reince Priebus in Washington on
Thursday amid rumblings that
the party would fracture if he
were to win the nomination.

With polls for the Wisconsin
Republican primary showing the
ultraconservative Cruz holding
a 10-point lead, Trump has
launched a series of events in the
heartland state to rally support.
Moderate John Kasich, the Ohio
governor, is polling third and
last. Campaigning in Wisconsin on Saturday accompanied by
Sarah Palin, Mr Trump attacked

CLINTON NEEDS

For Hillary Clinton

Wisconsin would be more

delegates proportionally
according to the primary
results.

contest having lost ve of
the last six states to Bernie

him nishing on top in
Wisconsin. The Vermont
senator has already notched
victories in two neighboring
states, Minnesota and
Michigan.
Mr Cruz for failing to report a

loan from Goldman Sachs, his
wifes employer.
The winner of Tuesdays Republican primary will take most
of the 42 delegates on oer. If
Cruz wins, he will certainly
claim it as a turning point in
the race.
Meanwhile, Mr Trump says
he regrets retweeting an unattering picture of the wife of Mr
Cruz, in a rare act of contrition
from the Republican presidential
frontrunner.
The billionaire real-estate
mogul has been engaged in an
increasingly personal war of
words with Mr Cruz, his nearest challenger in the Republican
race for the White House, that
even drew in their wives.
An anti-Trump political
group unveiled a controversial
campaign ad ahead of votes in
Arizona and Utah last month
that used a GQ magazine photograph of Trumps wife Melania
lying naked and handcued to
a briefcase.
Mr Cruz denied being behind
the ad, which was accompanied
by the words: Meet Melania
Trump, your next rst lady.
Trump then retweeted a photo
compilation of an unattering
photo of Cruzs wife Heidi
next to Melania, a SlovenianAmerican jewelry designer
and former model. Yeah, it
was a mistake, Trump said of
the retweet, talking to The New
York Times columnist Maureen
Dowd, in a column published on
Saturday. If I had to do it again,
I wouldnt have sent it. (AFP)

More carriers set eyes on lucrative Kenyan airspace

BY JAMES KARIUKI
Thirty-six passenger and cargo transport providers have applied for licences to operate local and
international ights, signalling heightened interest
in the countrys aviation sector.
Applications led with the Kenya Civil Aviation
Authority indicate excitement among tourists
seeking to devour Kenyas wildlife and beaches,
and business travellers planning to ferry goods to
various local destinations.
Zimbabwe-based Global Africa Aviation Ltd has
sought permission to have cargo ights from Harare
to Nairobi while West Wind Aviation Ltd seeks

to oer passengers and freight services between
Nairobi, East, West, Central and Southern Africa
from its current base at Wilson Airport.
Charter ights
Italys Neos S.P.A and Meridiana Fly have sought

the nod to operate chartered ights on a bi-weekly
basis from Malpensa to Mombasa and a weekly
service from Katowice-Hurghada to Mombasa,
with visitors from Poland and Egypt.
Others include Polands Small Planet Airlines that
plans weekly ights to Kenya while Saudi Arabian
Airlines Corporation has sought permission to run

cargo services from Nairobi to Jeddah and back.
On the East African front, Auric Air Services Ltd,
Tanzanian Air Services and Air Excel Ltd, have
sought permission to provide regional passenger
services, thanks to the recently signed air trac
protocol that gives regional operators from East
Africa Community automatic rights to use sister
facilities at no extra cost.
Five Forty Aviation and Baracuda Airways Holdings Ltd plan to launch weekly ights to Homa Bay
while East African Safari Air Express Ltd wants to
be allowed to y to Kabarnet weekly.
The government has urged importers of impounded goods held at two

depots in Nairobi to claim them or
have them auctioned. The customs
department urged owners of the cargo
to admit liability and pay duty. At the
same time, the chief manager invited
interested buyers to visit the godowns
on May 16 and 17 to view the items,
which include ceramic tiles, binding wire, macadamia nuts, knapsack
sprayers, roong nails, A4 printing
paper, agricultural supplies and vegetable glue, pesticides and protective
gear, charitable goods, hardware
shovels, primer juice and nectors. At
Pepe depot, the government said that
textiles materials, dental chairs and
a dental scanner will be available for
viewing on May 18 and subsequently
face the auctioneers hammer the following day.

Parched elds

Chronic water woes
are forcing the once
rice producing giant
to grow other crops
NONTHABURI,
THAILAND, SUNDAY
hailand has long served

as one of the globes main
rice bowls, but chronic
water shortages are pushing
the country to move away from
a grain that dominates its elds
and has dened a way of life for
generations.
Laddawan Kamsong has spent
the past 40 years coaxing rice
from her plot in central Thailand,
but she is tired of watching her
farmland squeezed dry by increasingly severe droughts.
I plan to replace some rice
paddies with limes, she told AFP
after attending a government-run
workshop urging farmers to diversify their crops.
Thailand is one of the worlds
top rice exporters.
But four consecutive years
of below-average rainfall have
drained water reserves and
strangled production, pushing
many farmers into debt.
The current drought , the
worst the country has seen in
decades, has hit nearly a third
of Thailands 76 provinces, particularly in the rice-heavy central
and northeast. Reservoirs are

also dropping to historically low
levels. The kingdoms military
government is now organising
training sessions to encourage
millions of rice farmers to diversify into crops that require less
irrigation.
Unlike nearly all other crops,
rice grows best in a ooded eld,
with the stalks base completely
submerged for most of the growing season.
At an army-run workshop
held in patch of shade in a eld

Bangkok, Laddawan was sold the

In other regions, they are suggesting sugarcane or peas.
These alternatives will drastically reduce water consumption
but also break the monoculture
that has deteriorated Thai soil
for decades.
We have no choice, we need
to adapt, Laddawan said, explaining that she used to plant
three rice crops annually, but
next year will only have enough
water for one.
As the drought bites, some
2,000 Thai villages are surviving o water delivered by the
government, while rainmaking
airplanes are ying over parched

After last years especially
weak rainy season which
falls between June and October
the ruling military junta asked

farmers to abandon their winter rice crop, which is normally
cultivated through irrigation and
not rainfall.
The amount of water in storage is low and now we expect
that this years rainy season will
be delayed because of El Nino,
said Suphot Tovichakchaikul,
who leads the countrys water
management department.
The El Nino weather phenomenon tends to weaken the annual
monsoon, which is a lifeline to
farmers across the region.
According to a study from
the University of the Chamber
of Commerce, the drought could
shave between 0.5 and 0.8 per
cent o Thailands GDP growth,
with its annual rice production
predicted to drop almost 30 per
cent to 25 million tonnes.

Truce in the currency

war, but will it last?
A truce appears to have emerged
in the undeclared global currency

central banks have really given up
manipulating exchange rates to prop
up their economies. The currency
war is in reality a war between central
banks who are battling to support
their own interests and taken into account what their rival central banks
are doing, said Sylvain Loganadin,
an analyst at online foreign exchange
broker FXCM. Meanwhile analysts at
HSBC bank said they believe a truce
has broken out in the global currency
war. Exhausted by the battle, it
seems the ECB has given up the ght
to continually engineer higher ination through a weaker exchange rate.
The Bank of Japan has also come to

Cities can grow their food and

Growing food in urban areas is a
viable option as a response to food
insecurity. With increasing numbers
of people worldwide moving to
cities, more governments should
seriously consider adopting it.
BY JOEL KAPANTE OLE REYIA
joelkapante@gmail.com
he challenge of food security is often

seen exclusively as one of feeding an
ever-growing human population. Worryingly, food production has constantly failed
to keep up with population growth. But now
the problem is much more than just one of
scale. The nature of the challenge, too, is
changing. Not only has the human population been increasing, it is also changing from
being predominantly rural as more people
ock to urban centres.
Cities and towns are experiencing massive
population growth the world over, receiving
huge numbers of migrants every year.
In 1950, urban populations accounted for
only 29 per cent of the world population, according to the United Nations Educational
Scientic and Cultural Organisation (Unesco).
At the turn of the century, the gure had risen
to about 45 per cent. This was enough to
declare the Twentieth Century the century
of urbanisation and city life. Now the gure
is projected to hit 70 per cent by 2025.
In Africa, urbanisation is most intense in
Algeria, Tunisia and South Africa, which have
more than 50 per cent of their populations
living in urban areas. Generally, cities in the
developing world are growing at a rate of 3.5
per cent per annum.
These gures indicate that there is a continuous massive movement of people from
rural to urban areas worldwide. Driven by
the desire for better living conditions, they
ock to cities in droves in search of greener
pastures every. But, slowly, the illusion
disappears, and is replaced by the harsh
realities of urbanism: unemployment or
underemployment, crime, poverty, hunger
and life in the slums.
To cope with this fast-moving wave of rural
ight requires new strategies for urban planning and the use of urban spaces. Thus urban
planners, policymakers and governments seek
pragmatic and timely ways of addressing this
challenge. The process of urbanisation transforms land use and farming systems, patterns
of labour force participation, infrastructural
requirements, and natural resource systems.
When cities grow, their populations expand,
putting a strain on food production.
As a way of easing the food shortage, many
urban households, particularly the poor, have
taken to growing food on small plots.
Today, if you take a walk through some
of the residential estates in Nairobi such as
Ngara, Eastleigh and Buru Buru, you might
be forgiven for thinking that a green revolution is under way.
And on the outskirts of the city, greenhouses and ponds compete for space with
small gardens planted with owers, vegetables and fruits. Banana plants and palm

trees dwarf wrought-iron gates, their green
dotting the skyline. Kale, cabbage, and maize
gardens sprout in the middle of urban squalor.
In this unusual rare blend, urban features
and rural agrarian patterns are combined in
a new form of settlement that one might call
garden cities.
Although it is often not given much attention, urban agriculture is steadily increasing.
The practice involves cultivating, processing,
and distributing food in and around a town or
city. It also encompasses an array of activities

including horticulture, aquaculture, animal
husbandry and bee keeping.
Many cities all over the world, notably
Johannesburg, Washington (United States),
Vancouver (Canada), La Paz (Bolivia) and
the Ghanaian town of Tamale, have embraced
this type of farming.
And just last month, Nairobi Governor
Evans Kidero said some land in the city
should be set aside for growing food.

Yet urban agriculture is not a new thing.

As a response to food insecurity, allotment
gardens were established in Germany in
the early 19th Century. During the post-depression period and in the wake of the two
world wars, the US, Canada and UK also
started victory gardens to address the food
shortages.
The most striking feature of urban farming
is its ability to maximise the use of space

whatever space they can get to grow food.

This is mainly in front or at the back of the
house. The more innovative ones grow crops
in containers such as pots and gunny bags.
Meanwhile, sh are kept in tanks or small
ponds. Even rooftop gardens are cultivated
in megapolies such as New York.
In fact, agricultural experts believe that
no space is too small to grow food, as long
as the farmers are driven by passion.
There are three main types of urban
agriculture. The rst is where households
grow food or keep animals within their own
compounds. The second involves growing
crops or keeping animals on public land such
as along roads, railways and rivers, under
power lines or in parks. The third type is
practised in former rural areas that become
part of a city or town when its boundaries
are extended.
The use of public land for farming is more
common in the developed world, where sustainably designed communities work to grow
food in communal gardens, orchards and
greenhouses. These initiatives incorporate
organic food production, which is considered
the fastest growing sector in food production.
By so doing, they provide steady supplies of
quality food. They also help create jobs and
develop self-sustaining markets.
By contrast, urban food production in
Africa is mainly a response to food insecurity.
In Africa, urban farming is practised by
a wide range of people, regardless of their
social class. According to a research on
urban and peri-urban farming in Nakuru,
the disparity in farming between the social

classes had little to do with the size of their
plots and more to do with the yields from
their crops. Buoyed by the use of improved
seeds and irrigation and their ability to hire
more labour, high-income households realised harvests almost three times the size of
those of low-income households, which form
the largest group among urban farmers.
With an agricultural sector that cannot
meet the demand and an urban population
boom, Africa might just have to embrace
urban agriculture as a way of alleviating food
shortages. Reports of millions of Kenyans
facing starvation during dry spells have invariably given rise to debates as to whether
the country should adopt genetically modied
foods, which were banned in 2012.
More than 70 per cent of the maize cultivated in Kenya is done by smallholder
farmers, primarily for their own consumption.
The average yield for the last ve years is
seven bags per acre, against a potential of 25
to 30 bags. This is anything but sucient to
feed an ever-increasing population. To bridge
this decit, the government imports millions
of bags of food annually. The situation is the
replicated across the continent.
Last year, the Vice-President of the African
Development Bank (AfDB), Mr Aly AbouSabaa, said the continent imports about
$25 billion (Sh2.5 trillion ) worth of food
each year. He added that the amount could
increase since the demand for food in Africa
is expected to double by 2020.
Mr Gideon Mukavani, a roasted maize
seller in Kiambu, supports the idea of expanding urban agriculture, saying it would

signicantly reduce transport and storage

costs.
It would also save us the daily dawn trips
to Marikiti (Nairobis main retail market)
to look for maize imported from Tanzania.
There is high demand for Tanzanian maize in
Nairobi, which has ensured that their prices
remain high, he said.
He added that real estate speculators will
have to tamed if adequate land for urban
agriculture is to be found, noting that speculative purchases withhold land that could
be used for food production in the urban
and peri-urban areas from those who would
wish to farm it.
Meanwhile, Katherine Muli, a fruit seller
at the City Park market in Parklands, said
urban centres should not be so heavily reliant on rural areas for food.
If I had a sizeable garden in Nairobi, I
would grow maize and beans and also rear
dairy animals and poultry. I would use the
animal waste as manure and save a lot of
money, she explained.
In May last year, First Lady Margaret
Kenyatta, who has been very vocal in the
ght against cancer, urged Kenyans to avoid
eating too many processed foods in order
to remain healthy.
Besides food security, theres an aesthetic
aspect to urban farming. When crops are
grown in yards, they create green spaces,
which gives the environment a pleasant
appearance. They also purify the air by
absorbing carbon dioxide from the air
through photosynthesis and producing
oxygen in return.
Vegetation has a positive eect on our
physical and mental health through cleaner
air, fewer carbon particles, and better microclimate and by providing visual respite,
Christina Borcke, a landscape architect at
the University of British Columbia, asserts
in her book, Landscape and Nature in the
City.
For urban farming to succeed, the government and the private sector should work
hand in hand.
According to Sitopolis, a journal on urban
agriculture, government support is necessary
for the sustainability of urban agricultural
systems. The government inuences urban
food production through subsidies and taxation and can also facilitate the creation of
food-growing zones and a necessary legal
environment.
It is, therefore, important to note that certain by-laws enacted by the city authorities
place limits on agricultural practices in urban
areas. For example, the Nairobi City County
Urban Agriculture Promotion and Regulation
Bill 2014 empowers an executive committee
member to put in place measures to regulate the production, processing marketing,
grading, storage, collection, transportation,
warehousing of crops and livestock within
a city. This limits the expansion of plant or
animal husbandry.
Favourable government practices can be a
boon to urban food producers, especially in
impoverished slums. Proper zoning regulations, according to American architect and
urban planner Douglas Farrs book, Sustainable Urbanism, usually allows for individuals
and communities to readily produce their
own food.
Despite the inherent challenges, with
proper policies in place, it is easy to visualise
ourishing cities in the future with a steady
supply of low-cost, year-round produce. The
rural-areas-as-food-producers economic
model will no longer hold. Agriculture will
ourish in urban areas, rubbishing the notion
of they depend on rural areas, at least with
regard to the production of, and access to,
food for subsistence. That would certainly
go a long way in alleviating, even not eradicating, hunger.
CHALLENGES
Getting access to basic requirements
such as clean water and unpolluted soil
in urban areas could be a big impediment
to the production of healthy food. For
instance, vegetables grown in certain urban areas such as Gikomba and Kibera in
Nairobi, are irrigated using sewage.
Such water, if used for only a short
time, should not be a cause for worry.
In fact, the sludge in sewage has been
shown to add nutrients to the soil. Experience in Asian cities has shown that
partly-treated sewage is especially ideal
for the production of hydroponic crops
and sh. However, if used for long periods, sewage can be harmful since it
increases the acidity of the soil.
It is also worth noting that the rivers
that ow through Nairobi city are polluted not only with human waste, but also
with industrial euents. In the case of
the Nairobi River, for instance, this poses
a threat to farmers downstream in areas
like Korogocho, Eastleigh and Pumwani,
and there
There is a real risk of crops being contaminated with dangerous metals such
as lead. Crops can also take up the metals through the heavily-polluted urban
atmosphere.
Many consider soil erosion associated
with urban and peri-urban agriculture an
environmental hazard. Farmers in Kibera
were often faced with this problem, according to research around Nairobi. To
combat the problem, they were forced
to dig drainage ditches to prevent gully
erosion and use crop residues to prevent
sheet erosion.
Meanwhile, free-range animals tend
to cause congestion and even accidents
on roads.
With the increase in cases of lifestyle
diseases such as cancer, diabetes and
hypertension, it is imperative for current
food systems to ensure good quality,
taste and safety.
Vegetation has a
positive eect on our
physical and mental
health through cleaner
air, fewer carbon particles,
and better micro-climate and by
providing visual respite.

kitoto
Hi Kitoto,
There was this girl I dated from 2012 until
the beginning of 2014. She introduced me
to a certain church, and things were good
when we began attending that church. One
day, she told me she was pregnant, and that
she needed to see me urgently. Since I didnt
have a job, I went to see her and she showed
me the test kit, whose results I did not believe
at rst. We talked about it and she told she
wasnt ready to have a child since she was
still on attachment at a hotel, among other
reasons. I told her I would think about it. The
next day, she called me and we met. She was
with her cousin and told me that she was
ready to terminate the pregnancy, which
made me mad but they said everything
would be just ne. I contributed money
for the abortion because, although I was
mad, I didnt have any option. Six months
or so after the abortion, when we were out
shopping, she told me she felt sad about
losing my baby. I didnt say anything.
My problem is that even after what she did,
we ended up breaking up after her mother
told us we could not be friends because a
servant of the church had said so. I agreed,
because I knew I couldnt force things.
I need help because I need forgiveness for
every wrong I have done and need guidance
as well as to repent for everything. What are
the consequences of an abortion? What can
I do to stop thinking about it now and then?
Will she be able to conceive again? She has
become so desperate that she is hooking
up with several men, some of whom are my
friends, but her relationships dont last.
How can I help her yet we rarely talk
when we meet and she seems very
bitter towards me. What makes
her that bitter towards me?
Please help.

Hi,
Abortion is an
emotive topic,
and there are
many people
argue loudly
for and against
the practice.
Sadly, the one
voice you rarely
hear, but which
is the most important, is that

abortion. According to an article I

do not put their
mental health at

an abortion,

Association.

article, These

such as depression, among those

who have had terminations.
It quotes Sue Hulbert, a 45-yearold science teacher from Leeds,
who had an abortion in 2000, and
who now has two children aged 16
and 12, as saying, Before I had an
abortion, I was happy and outgoing Id never suered any mental
health problems. But I came round
from the anaesthetic in tears, and
Ive struggled with depression ever
since.
She concludes: Every day I think
about the abortion. Eight years on,
the pain of what happened hasnt
eased and I know it never will.
What am I saying? The issue of
abortion has both proponents and
opponents. But when you talk to
those who have had an abortion,
you will nd many with an inner,
unending silent cry. As for you and
your girlfriend, what you are going
through is the result of a complexity
of issues resulting from that abortion. First are the feelings of failure
that saw you end up with your child
being aborted, and thereafter, a failed
relationship. This needs to be dealt
with so that it doesnt keep haunting you and forcing you into making
irrational decisions. Although you
gave no indication whether you
that you were responsible for the
pregnancy and were willing to fully
take responsibility, the abortion followed with your full approval and
participation. This forms part of the
sympathy you feel for her and the
personal guilt you carry.
Second, every action has consequences. As a Christian, you have
clear guidelines on how you should
live and relate to others. Children
are given by God. The feelings
of guilt that both of you are now
experiencing are the result of the
abortion. God encourages you to
live your life in such that those
who do not know Him will come to
do so through your exemplary life.
The guilt you are feeling now has
something to do a clash between
your faith and practice.
No one can change the values you
hold or how you live your life. Only
you have the power to change your
life and live it in the way you want.
Your desire to re-organise your life is
commendable. It will not help you in
any way to blame her or yourself. You
have the freedom to choose whom
to associate with and how to live
your life. However, those choices
come at a cost.
For you, it has been a journey
of failed relationships, possibly a
broken heart, and many questions
arising from the abortion. It is
important to go back to what your
religious beliefs are concerning
such an act. You should strive to
live right and not allow the past to
haunt you. When you know what
you live for, then your choices will
be guided accordingly. What I see
as your fundamental problem is a
lack of personal values based on
your religious convictions which, if
embraced, would have helped you
live without the regrets you cur-

RELATIONSHIPS
RESPONSIBILITY, AS WELL AS A TRUE, HONEST COMMITMENT TO ONES PARTNER
having helped my girlfriend abort

rently have.
It is important for you re-discover
what God wants from you when he
calls you to follow Him. You cannot
do this by shifting the recovery plan
to moving to the church next door.
For example, your faith calls you
to a life of self-discipline and selfcontrol. Respecting yourself means
learning to take responsibility for
your actions. The best you can do
for yourself is walk right. The worries you have about her future will
depend on the choices she makes.
So far I do not see her having
taken any responsibility to make
wise choices.
In life, freedom without responsibility results in careless living. This
hurts not only you, but those who
fall within your sphere of inuence.
No one can deny that you carry a
certain amount of baggage that
needs to be dealt with. This baggage, if not handled properly, will
inuence who you are seeking to
become in the future. As I have already mentioned, responsible living
is taking charge of your destiny.
Find out the people and things
that add value to the kind of man
you want to become and decisively
walk that path, no matter the consequences.
Hes pretends to
care now that Ive
educated my kids
Thanks for your good work. I have been
married for nearly 11 years but have been
quite unhappy. I am in a polygamous marriage. My husband is a businessman while I
am a teacher. He has had diculty supporting me, but I have seen my kids through
school. I have tried to get a separation
several times but he will not let me go. I
no longer have any feelings for him. Life
has been a struggle for me, yet now that I
am almost getting a reprieve, he is acting
concerned. What should I do?
Hi,
Yours was a compromised relationship from the time the two of
you entered this mans life. What I
dont know is who married him rst.
But he seems to have chosen the
kind of life he wants live. From the
little you have disclosed, I cannot
quite tell the issues aecting your
marriage. But, I suggest that you
resist becoming the cause of the
problems in your marriage. Eleven
years of marriage, and particularly
if you are the rst wife, cannot be
taken for granted. In a polygamous
marriage, the marriage might not
focus equally on the needs of those

involved.
It does not matter how much you
encourage him to focus on you and
the children if he has made up his
mind on what he wants. Trying to
change his mind and lifestyle will
be dicult if he does not make
such a conscious decision himself
on the kind of life and marriage
he wants.
Your continued presence in this
relationship will always be a point
of reference and reection for both
of you. I believe that is why he is
trying to prevent you from leaving. Your job, therefore, will be to
focus on living right and walking
towards healing the wounds you
are carrying. What you have to
come to terms with is the fact
that healing and a feeling of
wholeness will never be truly
complete as long as your focus
is on your co-wife, who is still
part of the this marriage. Let
your focus change, making yourself the woman who draws strength
from a healthy self-esteem.
Moving out might look like the
easiest way out, but if you are the
rst wife, the noble thing to do
is to evaluate what causes you the
greatest pain and deal with it. Would
you prefer losing your marriage to
the second wife or would you rather

remain and be a living example to
your children of how to face issues
in life. Leaving might not necessarily bring you the satisfaction you
are looking for. Choose a focused
life. Once you have done this, leave
it to your husband to determine for
himself whether he is still committed. As far as you are concerned, I
would urge you to think about what
is best for you and the future of the
children. You already feel indierent, and maybe he has treated you
badly, not to mention your co-wifes
jealousy.
The proposed marriage laws
that allow for polygamous marriages might never really solve
the myriad problems that come
No one can guarantee that a

polygamous man will be faithful
only to his wives.
Polygamous marriages not only
bring pain to the spouses who
feel aggrieved and are in constant
competition but also introduces an
angle in the marriage where jealousy,
mistrust, unfaithfulness and keeping
secrets from one another reigns.
with such a union. The problem is

that today, polygamy is an exclusive game played by men who take
advantage and marry many wives
for their own selsh gain. As a result, no one can guarantee that a
polygamous husband will remain
committed only to the wives he has
married. Consequently, polygamous
marriages not only bring pain to the
spouses who feel aggrieved and are
in constant competition, but also
introduces an angle in the marriage
where jealousy, mistrust, unfaithfulness and keeping secrets from one
another reigns. Think about your
faith, your children and the freedom
to fully nd joy, acceptance and
mutual support without allowing
yourself to be intimidated.
It is important to note that polygyny is one of the social practices
fuelling the spread of HIV/Aids and
one of the greatest contributors to
the spread of sexually transmitted
infections. Looking at what polygamy does to families that embrace
it, I feel that you need to work at
focusing on your potential and
faith without allowing yourself to
be entangled in the battle of who is
loved more in this marriage. Find
fullment in who you are before you
seek it from others.

Yes, pay women tennis players less than the men
The metamorphosis of Babu Owino
NOVAK DJOKOVIC RECENTLY said that

women tennis players should be paid less
than men. It caused a stir, with many
condemning his comments. The tennis
number one has since apologised.
He is right, though. Mens tennis
is harder, faster and has a larger
pool of talent playing it. It is a
lot harder statistically to break
through than womens. The mens
nal draws more than twice the viewers
than womens, so why should the pay be
the equal?
Men suer more to get to the nal and
face tougher physical conditions. They draw
larger crowds; how, then, is it fair to pay
them the same as women?
In modelling, the top female talent is paid
several multiples what male talent is paid.
One newspaper calculated the disparity
in pay as 42:1. It makes sense as there is
a larger market for womens clothes than
IN 2010, PAUL ONGILI, aka Babu Owino,

challenged the rule that only a regular student
could be a Sonu chairman. Module II students,
who paid more to be members of Sonu,
outnumbered regular students, and so subsidised
the education of regular students, were only
allowed to elect a representative to Sonu.
Babu held marches and protests to have the
discriminatory Sonu constitution changed.
After a lengthy period during which the UoN
went on strike for the rst time under VC George
Magoha and Sonu was disbanded, the university
management relented, and the constitution was
changed. With parallel students overwhelmingly
on his side, Babu easily won. I joked at the time
that Sonu would never have another regular
student chairman.
Turns out Sonu would never have a dierent
chairman or so it seems. I cant remember who
it was that split Babus rule. The rule that barred
rst year students from being chairman was also
scrapped, meaning that when Babu nished

In 2015, the highest paid ghter in the

The American womens football team
recently complained about being paid less
than the men. Well, very few people watch
the Womens World Cup. The nals are
a time-share between Germany and the
United States. It isnt as competitive as the
mens game.
Mens physical performance surpasses
that of women, and that is not a slight on
the womens game.
When the womens game brings in as
much money as the mens, it will be time

Many might wonder why the Sonu position is
so hotly contested. The chairman is in charge of a

who gets which shops and where.

n primary school, we had

an odd morning ritual every
Wednesday. We would be sent
to dierent classrooms depending
on our parents faiths. The Catholics
were shepherded one way while the
Protestants remained in the class
since they were the majority.
Muslims submitted to instruction
in some corner of the school. One
boy, a Jehovahs Witness, roamed
the corridors in search of salvation.
This was pastoral class time and
we were closeted with those who
shared our beliefs.
Later on, we met for a double
maths lesson, comfortable that we,
the righteous, would soon be enjoying the comforts of heaven while our
pagan compatriots would be enduring immeasurable torment.
The situation was repeated
every Christian Religious Education (CRE) class, although the
eect wasnt as marked. The few
Muslims in class would slink out,
leaving the Christians as a united
mass, as though the Reformation
never happened.
Every week we were reminded
that we were dierent. Our gods
didnt get along. Our revelations
were separate and some were
superior.
During morning assembly, all our
hymns were Christian, the weekly
sermons were Anglican, and the
prayers firebrand evangelical.
Through it all, the administrators
reminded us of the importance of
respecting other peoples religion as
they invited an endless march-past
of Anglican priests to lecture us.
Our school was open to everyone,
but the badge had both a cross and
bishops crook.
Even an atheist like me has no
problem appreciating religious
myths. You need to know religion
to understand history, art and
literature. How else would you
know why someone is referred to
as a Judas or described as having
the patience of Job?
It is important to learn about different religions and I think a course
in the history of dierent religions is
important in a polarised world.
What a time to be alive, though!

world but faith is getting hot and
dangerous again, threatening our
lives.
If ever there was a time to champion secular values, it is now. This
is why: as we debate how to improve the education curriculum,
we should start by throwing out
religious education and stop religious institutions from using the
schools they run to indoctrinate
students.
RE is compulsory in primary
school but limited to the three
main faiths. What about, Judaism,
Jainism, Jedi, Scientology, Pastafarianism, Rastafarianism and the
Church of Last Thursday? Clearly,
any attempt by Kenya National
Education Council to cater for all
the dierent beliefs would stretch
it beyond comprehension. If we
cant accommodate them all, we
should drop them all.
God truly moves in mysterious ways when it comes to
teaching religious education
in classrooms. The Christian
Religious Education syllabus is
usually an extended compromise.
The points of contention between
the various sects cannot be touched
upon. The discrepancy in the holy
books is o limits. The dierent

interpretations are not welcome to
the discussion and the fact that different sects of the faith use dierent
holy books is not addressed.
Christianitys many fractious
sects cannot agree on the nature
of God, the existence of heaven and
hell, the Trinity or whether we are
immortal or not. Beliefs like the Assumption are o limits. All eorts
to teach the actual tenets of the faith
using one book are bound to fail.
The real miracle in teaching CRE
is how they are able to stretch the
few things all Christians agree on
(be good and donate to the poor)
through 12 years worth
of schooling.

rooms, why not instruct children

about our gods in churches?
Some think that RE increases
morality in students. Morality and
religion have nothing to do with
each other. The most religious
places on earth are usually the
ones with the most crimes. In the
past two decades, Baghdad (Iraq),
Bangui (Central African Republic)
and Belgrade (Serbia) have shown
that a high number of believers is
toxic to the body politic.
Note also that Western Europe
kicked out religious studies from
their schools but crime continued
plummeting. Morality predates our
religions and is observable even in
other animals.
Many schools established by
various faiths require some sort of
observance of the mother religion as
part of the curriculum. You nd that
mass, assembly and prayer books
are compulsory for all. It isnt fair
that children from dierent religions are eectively discriminated
against in such schools.
It is okay to challenge the beliefs
of others, but you should also allow
your own beliefs to be challenged.
Religions shouldnt use their
learning institutions as recruiting
centres where indoctrination is

made compulsory.
The habit of evangelising also
extends to religiously affiliated
universities. To continue the pretence that one particular religion
has more insights to oer than others at university level is particularly
unwise and should be grounds to
have your charter cancelled. To
enforce the adherence of religious
practices on unwilling students
as a requirement for a course is
absurd. However, such behaviour
is still all too common in Kenyan
universities.
What is it about these millennia-old faiths with billion-strong
fellowships that is so insecure that
they must force others to partake in
their customs? Why must faith, with
all its contradictions, be inicted
on those with such young minds
in a place of learning? Why must
the conscription to the armies of
salvation happen to the young and
the helpless, often in echo chambers where everyone believes their
brand of faith? What hope do we
have of achieving national cohesion
when our schools discriminate on
religion grounds and the exam body
recognises only three faiths? It is
time to rid ourselves of religion in
classrooms.
Also, ditching RE will enable
the youth to eectively be taught
about sex in schools. The reason
sex education has never be taught
properly in schools is because too
many of them are run by the church.
Every time someone suggests giving the youth condoms half of
them have had sex by the time they
are 18 the clergy threaten to call
down re and brimstone.
Religious education is an ineffectual, divisive, outdated and
time-wasting pursuit. The time
allotted to it would be better
used teaching maths or English.
Our children are bad at these, as
Uwezo keeps reminding us. These
subjects are more useful here on
earth. School is meant to prepare
our children for this life, not the
next one.

Will always bring a smile,
If only we could have you back,
For just a little while
Then we could sit and talk again,

You always meant so very much and will always do,
The fact that you are no longer here,
Will always cause us pain,
But you are forever in our hearts,
Until we meet again
Fondly remembered by your Loving Wife Monica, Children, Grandchildren,
Great Grand Children and the entire Mandu Family.
Rest in Peace Daddy. Amen

Paris Marathon.
Kotut claimed a double in
the French Capital inside a

Paris Half Marathon on
March 6. Yesterday, he broke
away from an eight-man
pack with three kilometres
remaining to take mens title
in personal best 2 hours, 07
minutes and 13 seconds.
Jepkesho, a constable at
Kenya Prisons, yesterday
atoned for her third place
finish in last years race
after breaking away from
Ethiopian Gulume Tollesa
with seven kilometres left to
win the womens race in 2:25:
57 for her maiden major.
Kotut and Jepkesho each
got 50,000 Euros (Sh5.75m)
each for their exploits.
Kotut, younger brother of
three-time London Marathon
champion Martin Lel, overtook Ethiopian Gebretsadik
Abraha at the 30km mark and
reached the 40km mark in 2:
00:34 on his way to victory.
The 24-year-old Kotut was
fresh from Paris Half Marathon last month in 1:01:00,
was making his second appearance over the distance
after his marathon debut

August last year. On
or no sponsors
that day, the boys
were instructed to
converge on Kenya
Cinema for lunch
and the regular pep
talk by the then head coach Zdravko Logarusic.
The lunch never materialised, reason? The ocials
were as broke as the players. So the players took to the
pitch hungry, broke and demotivated. The match aborted
but the players troubles did not end there. It took a wellwisher to donate some Sh15,000 to the players as bus
fare after the match.
I clearly recall the stando between the players and
the club ocials going into the Sofapaka match earlier
in the season.
The players had made it very clear that they would not
honour the match unless and until their outstanding dues
were cleared. The ocials had also made it clear too that
there was no money.
So as fans we went to the stadium unsure whether the
match would go on or not. Two hours before the match
I called a player who told me he was already within the
stadium with a few of his teammates.
He was unaware of the whereabouts of others. A few
minutes to the match, I called another player who conrmed
they had managed to raise 12 players but there was no

Players that AFC Leopards raised for a

SportPesa Premier League match against
Sofapaka last season at the height of their
nancial crisis when salaries were not being paid
goalkeeper! Eventually, an outeld player Karim Ndungwa

volunteered to don the goalkeepers gloves and did fairly
well in the circumstances, even saving a penalty.
I remember fraternizing with some Ingwe players at the
Nyayo Stadium restaurant minutes after they had whitewashed Sony Sugar a record 5-1. I later learnt that they
had been waiting for their captain who had gone to Nairobi
West to collect their allowances from some ocials. The
guy eventually showed up, with a modest Sh700 for each
player. That is how bad things were those days.
Thanks to the sponsorship deal, things are much better. The boys may not be earning the huge salaries their
predecessors used to earn, but they have just enough to
lead decent lives and concentrate on developing their
careers at Ingwe. The challenge to all those aspiring to
lead Ingwe is to come up with ideas on how to exploit
the Ingwe brand with its huge fan base to make the team
self-sustaining, sponsors or no sponsors.
At this point in time, no Ingwe leadership worth its
salt should be moving from one politicians oce to the
other with a begging bowl. Such leaders have no place in
the current Leopards.

n my column last week, I

warned the largely idle Peter
Leftie and his cohort of AFC
Leopards sycophants to be very
afraid. Although they dismissed
me o hand, let me repeat here
and now that Gor Mahia is on
the rampage.
If in doubt, then the resounding
3-0 thumping Gor gave the boys
who hail from the neighbourhood
of the infamous Masinde Muliro
Gardens - Kakamega Homeboyz,
should serve as a pointer that
KOgalo are on the overtaking
lane as we cruise to where we
rightfully belong - at the top of
the SportPesa Premier League
table.
With our Brazilian Jose Marcello Ferraira taking charge as
coach and with the Rwandan
hit man Jacques Jausenge
Tuyisenge showing why the
glamour club splashed a whooping Sh4 million on him, we are
ready to show why we are called
the Mighty Mahia.
Granted we started the league
on a wrong footing with a string

of losses sticking on us like a bad
disease. But then again, we are
not talking about the Leopards
of this world.
We are talking about Gor
Mahia, a team that is known to
make and break records.
I am happy that on his rst
assignment for KOgalo, Tuyisenge lived up to expectation
and scored the second goal.
This is what coach Marcello
had to say after the match:
The victory was remarkable.
It conrmed where we are heading to and I must say that we
are determined to post more
victories in the league. I agree
with him 100 percent.
I am happy to say that the
many problems we had at the
beginning of the league including the long standing problem
of lack of sponsors are now well
behind us.
With a good squad and the
coach hinting that he will be
going to the market to strengthen
I am happy to say
that the many
problems we had at
the beginning of the
league including the long
standing problem of lack
of sponsors are now well
behind us
his team, all shows that we have

the chance- and the will- to win
the league.
As I said last week, a survey
carried two years ago put Gor
Mahia as the best sporting brand
in the country.
The International Certication
Association-ICERTIAS placed
Gor Mahia among top corporate
and personalities who it termed
as the most saleable brands.
This certication makes us the
primus inter parez (rst among
equals) and has seen us getting
two sponsors, SportPesa and
Crown Beverage. Already we
are on the line to a third sponsor which means we are going to
be the richest club in our neck
of the woods.
This should make our competitors very afraid.
If we could win the league unbeaten last year what cant we
do now that we are swimming
in money?

OFF THE PITCH
KPL kick-o time ip-op stinks

T
he past month has seen

the country get warmer
and warmer.
The complaint all over has
been about high temperatures.
If Nakuru residents are complaining about the heat, then
you can imagine just how hot it
is in Mombasa! From morning
to night, the humidity and the
heat becomes so unbearable
black crows themselves disappear from view.
Last week, you could have
fried an egg on the tarmac!
About the same time when the
town was like a frying pan on
re, some evil fellows at the KPL
oce in Nairobi were sitting on
swivel chairs and planning to
cause harm. One of them cheekily remarked: We should take
some match to Mombasa and
have it played in the afternoon
The others rocked with wicked
hilarity and I am informed he
fell down backwards in anticipation.
One woman shaking with
mirth and smoothing down
her devilish horns under her
blow dried hair stepped forth
and turned the knob on the
air conditioner to cold. They
all converged on the table and
whispered inaudibly to each
other and that is how Bandari
and Ulinzi Stars played their
match last week in a frying
pan.
Dear reader, you may think
Im exaggerating, but how else
can you explain the torture those
lads had to undergo? A weekday
match slated in the afternoon
is not normally attended by
many fans; but a match slated
for a midweek afternoon in
that humid heat of 40 degrees
centigrade gets just a handful
of fans.
The gatekeepers at the match
had to take cover from that hell
and as such I do not remember
paying at all. All the fans were
huddled at the main stand
drinking chilled water while the

unlucky boys were doing their
thing in the pitch.
The rst 10 minutes appeared
normal, but just at the 20 minute
mark, play became sluggish. The
heat was taking its toll and any
infringement called by the referee gave the poor boys the only
chance to rush to the sidelines to
qua water.
You could see relief on their
faces when the full-time whistle
blew. The referee himself was wet
to his teeth. That was a frightening game and I hope those lads
recovered in time.
Back to that comfortable group
in the air conditioned oce. They
were chuckling and slapping
their thighs in amusement as
they watched the suering boys
in Mombasa. The witch among
them came up with another iniquitous plan. She hissed: Why
dont we cause confusion in the
MOSES OJUANG
They kept juggling

They kept juggling with the
kick-off time for the double
header action slated to take
place at Nyayo Stadium. The rst
match was to kick o at 4pm and
second 7pm. They changed the
timings in their ocial social
media pages and indicated that
the matches would now take place
from 2pm and 4pm. They did all
this without informing the teams
concerned and they also left the
referees in the dark. The fans
were the most confused as they
just sat on the stands glumly, not
knowing what to do.
A few hours later, they reverted
to the original time, having already caused a lot of distress to
all concerned. Those scary people
at the KPL secretariat must put
their house in order.

Kenya womens squad for Afcon qualiers named

BY CELLESTINE OLILO
colilo@ke.nationmedia.com
National womens football team coach

David Ouma yesterday released the list of
20 players who will leave the country on
Wednesday morning for Algiers where they
will take on Algeria in a 2016 Africa Women
Cup of Nations qualiers.
The first leg match will be played on
Friday with the return leg ve days later
in Nairobi.
Spedag winger Ann Aluoch was named
team captain.
Midelders Lucy Mwanzia and Jacky Ogol
from Spedag Mombasa pulled out of the trip
after sustaining a knee and ankle injury respectively during training.
Winner of the round will gain passage to
the eight-team African nals that will be held
in Yaound, Cameroon in November.
Harambee Starlets had been scheduled to

play Democratic Republic of Congo in the
rst round of qualiers last month, but their
opponents pulled out of the competition due
to lack of funds, thereby earning the Kenyan
team a bye to this round.
Kenya has been in residential training at
Safaricom Stadium, Kasarani since Thursday
last week.
Optimistic
Team coach David Ouma told Daily Nation Sport that he anticipates a good game
against Algeria.
Algeria is widely respected for being very
strong in football, but we are also building a
team that will be very strong in future.
We have been working on tness levels
that were very low last week, and the ladies
have made tremendous improvement.
We performed very well in the Olympics
qualiers although we ended up losing out

on a ticket due to the away goal rule.
That shows that we have the potential to
make it to the nals this time and I hope the
girls will have the necessary condence in
the game, the tactician, who doubles up as
Sofapaka coach, said.
Starlets last competitive match was in the
2016 Olympics qualiers in July last year
where they crashed out after a 3-1 aggregate
loss to Banyan Banyana of South Africa.

City corner Leopards

loss on high-riding
Ingwe at Nyayo
BY ISAAC SWILA
AND GAITANO PESSA
sportsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com
airobi City Stars held their

nerves to bring AFC Leopards unbeaten run to a
screeching halt with a 1-0 win in a
tough SportPesa Premier League
match at Nyayo National Stadium
yesterday.
This was Citys second victory
on the trot after going ve matches
without a win.
City were 2-0 winners over Mathare United mid-week and followed
it up yesterday with an impressive
tactical performance to slay the
Big Cats.
For Leopards, the pre-match
favourites, the defeat - their rst
of the season, was a bitter pill to
swallow. It left them on 14 points,
same as Tusker but with an inferior
goal dierence.
Skipper Oscar Mbugua was the
toast of the evening pouncing on
a punched ball by Ingwe custodian Lucas Indeche from a Jimmy
Bageya corner to stab home in the
65 minutes.
City Stars goalie Victor Odhiambo
was also in ne form denying Kepha
Aswani late in the second half and
also thwarted several attempts from
Leopards many corners.
The league is a marathon and
Im very happy with my boys. They
played well and gave a good performance, victorious coach John Bobby
Ogolla said after the match.
Many said that Victor (Odhiambo) was an erratic keeper but
we have all seen his performance
today.
Early at the same venue, Mathare
United bounced back from the defeat to City with a clinical 1-0 win
over Ushuru. The Slum Boys took

the lead at the stroke of half time

from the spot after Franco Balala
was adjudged to have handled in the
box and Obadiah Ndege stepped up
to bury the penalty.
Such responsibilities are usually a
reserve of veteran set-piece specialist Noah Abich, but for this match,
Ndege - who has emerged as an early
contender for the Golden Boot, was
allowed to take responsibility as he
extended his goal tally to ve.
In the 24th minute, Ushurus captain Charles Okwemba thought he
had put his side ahead after combining well with his team mates in the
danger area to head into the empty
net but the goal was ruled out for
oside by centre referee Duncan
Mudaki.
At Awendo Green Stadium, Sony
Sugars poor run home and away
continued as they were held to a
barren draw by visiting Western

Football > Southampton coach Koeman rues missed chances
Leicester go seven
points clear in EPL
Captain Morgan nets match
winner as Foxes down poor
Saints to widen league lead
Leicester
eicester City captain Wes Morgan

scored his rst goal in almost a year
as the Premier League title-chasers edged Southampton 1-0 yesterday
to establish a potentially decisive
seven-point lead.
Tottenham Hotspurs 1-1 draw at
Liverpool on Saturday had given
Claudio Ranieris men an opportunity to strengthen their grip on rst
place and they duly took it courtesy of
Morgans 38th-minute header.
It was Leicesters fth 1-0 victory in
six matches and left the east Midlands
club needing 12 points from their nal six
games to claim the rst top-ight title in
their 132-year history.
Everyone is expecting something more
for us and we are in the cloud, but we have
to keep concentrating, said Leicester manager Ranieri.
I dont want to think about champions.
I want to focus on the match. There is a
chance for us to be champions this season,
but we have to be professional.
Leicester were bottom of the table a year
ago, but are now within sight of one of the
most sensational underdog triumphs in world
football history.
Meanwhile, Southampton manager Ronald
Koeman, whose side remain seventh, was left
to rue two penalty appeals for handball in
each half that were turned away by referee
Michael Oliver.
This is a big match, Koeman said. It
is about the Premier League title and our
ambitions to play in Europe.
I dont say they dont deserve the victory, that they dont ght and have amazing
spirit, but if it is a penalty and a red card,
they dont win.
With chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha laying on free doughnuts and bottles
of beer for home fans to mark his birthday
and Leicester City Champions 2016 scarves
for sale on the walk to the ground, the atmosphere could barely have been more festive at
a sun-soaked King Power Stadium.
In a bid to counter Leicesters two-pronged
strike-force of Jamie Vardy and Shinji Okazaki, Southampton deployed a back three
and while the home side made the early
running, the clearest opportunities of the
rst half fell to the visitors.
Their best chance saw Graziano Pelle free
Sadio Mane, who rounded Kasper Schmeichel
and shot, only for the ball to strike Danny
Simpsons right forearm as he came across
to cover the vacant goal.
Southampton appealed for a penalty, but
the right-backs arm had remained close to
his body so referee Oliver waved play on.
Pelle also headed over from a Cedric Soares
cross, while Jose Fonte fully extended Schmeichel with a rising drive from 25 yards
and Jordie Clasie shot narrowly over after
outmuscling Riyad Mahrez. (AFP)

Remuneration > We are losing sta due to poor pay, says ocial
EACC now wants sta paid more

CEO Waqo says
better pay will boost
morale of sta, thus
their eciency
BY JOHN NGIRACHU
@JohnNgirachu
jngirachu@ke.nationmedia.com
he Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission

wants salaries of its
members and sta increased.
In a letter to the Salaries and
Remuneration Commission
(SRC) on February 18, the Eacc
says enhanced salaries will boost
the morale of its sta, thus its
eciency.
In the letter, EACC chief executive Halakhe Waqo cited the
sensitivity of their work and the
risks they face as some of the
justications for the increase.
EACCs current salary structure has been in place since 2005
which is why, he said, it is unable to attract the professionals
it needs. This has also led to a
high turnover of sta.
Over the last one year, the
commission has lost some of
its best lawyers and other professionals who have joined the
Judiciary, Police Oversight Commission, Lands Commission and
your commission, that have more

attractive packages, Mr Waqo
said in a letter addressed to SRC
secretary Anne Gitau.
He said a number of EACC
sta leave after getting skills and
experience, disrupting ongoing
investigations.
The result has been low sta
morale, a heavy workload and
lack of ability to attract qualied
people, added Mr Waqo.
He told the Justice and Legal
Aairs committee last Wednesday that when the commission
recently tried to recruit legal ofcers, quantity surveyors, land
surveyors and valuation ocers,
they attracted less than 10 per
cent of those they wanted.
The commission feels that if
the terms of remuneration are
enhanced in line with our proposal, it would go a long way in
addressing the perennial problem
of sta capacity, he said in his
presentation to the committee.
EACC proposed that the
salaries of its commissioners

per cent, from Sh485,000 to

Sh705,000 for the chairman,
Sh420,000 to Sh615,000 for the
vice chairperson and Sh395,000
to Sh565,000 for members.
The increase would come
from a new risk allowance of
Sh200,000 for the chairman,
Sh175,000 for the vice chairman
and Sh150,000 for members plus
an increase of their commuter
allowances from Sh30,000 to
Sh50,000 a month.
Sta salaries would go up by
up to 150 per cent for those in
the top tier such as directors and
deputy directors, who serve on

contracts, while the lowest paid
sta on permanent terms would
have their salary tripled.
These increases would come
from new entertainment, risk,
responsibility, domestic and
non-practising allowances as
well as an increase in house
and transport allowances.
The rest of the staff remuneration would remain the same
under the proposed structure: a
retainer of Sh325,000 for the
chairman and Sh275,000 for
the vice chairperson.

commission to

The Ethics and Anti-Corruption

Commission has absolved former
Cord leader Raila Odingas aide
from accusations he fraudulently
acquired land belonging to Kenya
Commercial Bank.
There were claims that Mr Caroli
Omondi illegally bought the land on
Loita Street, Nairobi, for Sh260 million and was in the process of selling
it to another businessman for Sh650
million, claims investigators have
dismissed.
However, EACC found out that
the bank sold the property to a Ms
Peris Nasimiyu through a nominee
company known as Sirios Holding
after a consent ordered by a court
on January 10, 2011.
In a letter on March 18, EACC
Director of Investigations (DPP)
Abdi Mohamud said the commission closed Mr Omondis le and
forwarded it to the Director of Public Prosecutions who agreed with the
recommendations.
The matter has been closed and
the commission will not pursue it any
more, said Mr Mohamud.
The DPP, in a letter on March 9,
said he was satised there is no evidence Mr Omondi participated in the
purchase of the property as alleged,
and that there was no evidence that
the sale was illegal.

Special report
The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights has

asked the public to report any
wrongdoing in the police recruitment that begins today.
Yesterday, it announced a hotline number 0724256448 and
22359 for text messages, adding
that it will have monitors at 120
stations out of the 290 where
the recruitment will take place,
to boost transparency.
The SMS line is free, while
normal charges will apply for
phone calls.
The commission said previous
interviews had been carried out
irregularly.
We recommend that the
National Police Service ensures
that there are operational complaints desks at all centres so as
to be able to serve candidates
better. In the last recruitment
of 2015, our monitors observed
that the absence of complaints
desks denied candidates an
opportunity and platform to

air grievances touching on the
exercise, said the commission vice chairperson George
Morara.
Meanwhile, the Inspector
General of Police Joseph Boinnet yesterday warned candidates
against corrupt practices.
He urged the public to report
any wrongdoing during the recruitment by calling the police
on 999, 911 and 112, which are
toll free.
Mentally t
The recruitment seeks
10,000 candidates, who must
be Kenyans between the ages
of 18 and 28 and must hold a
Kenya Certicate of Secondary Education certicate with
a minimum of D+.
The candidates must also be
physically and mentally t and
must have no criminal record
or pending criminal charges.
Female candidates must not
be pregnant either during the
recruitment or during ninemonth training.
