RESCUE | Red Cross appeals for speedboats and helicopters to move victims to safety
NHIF saga
A motorist gets stuck on a ooded road at Madunguni, Malindi District, yesterday. Hundreds of families were marooned in their homes after River Sabaki burst its banks.
In Kirinyaga, more than 50 families have been displaced in Marura village after River Thiba burst its banks. Three cows were swept away and several acres of rice and other crops destroyed in fresh oods that have hit the area in the last two days. Many houses are submerged and pit latrines destroyed, raising fears of an outbreak of waterborne diseases. In Busia, Bunyala district commissioner Abdi Khalif advised those living near River Nzoia to move to higher grounds. The river has started overowing in Usonga, Siaya District. The water level rises every hour and very soon the water will move into the homes around this place. We are urging the residents to start moving today (yesterday) before the

RAINS HAVOC | Familes petition government to move them to higher ground permanently
he primary school pupil says he has been in this ferry business ever since the Galana River burst its banks three days ago. And at a time when several parts of the country are suering from the furry of killer oods, and families are marooned on roof or hill tops in rural areas, many Kenyan villages would welcome the creativity of this eight-year-old boy in Kaziani Village in Malindi. Baraka Rimba Kahindi has joined together two old wooden doors for a makeshift raft, and uses a long stick for an oar to help evacuate his marooned villagers to safety. As other children his age look at the rising water levels from a far and wait for a helping hand, Kahindi has so fare helped the Red Cross team of volunteers to save 14 children and ve women. Yesterday, Malindi MP Gideon Mungaro and Mr Joshua Nkanatha who oversee the rescue eorts branding the Kavinyalalo Primary School pupil the hero of the day. And when the Nation asked why he was

not afraid that the ood waters would carry him away, he beat his chest, saying I am a man, to the cheers from the crowd. I have been using the makeshift raft to ferry people across, especially those going to Malindi town and do not want to dirty their clothes. I charge them Sh20, Kahindi said. The money the third born of eight siblings collects in a day, he gives to his mother. The boy who has a passion for education, says when schools opened on Monday, he reported like other children and only continued with his business in the evenings. But the level of ood waters increased, forcing him to halt his studies. He has left his books and uniforms behind as there was not much time during the evacuation to take all his belongings with him. Yesterday, as he ferries two wooden boxes his mother asked him to get from the house, he remembered they left behind water jerricans the family would need and went back for them. I had to learn to swim because oods have been a problem here for a very long time, Kahindi said. Several families in the low lying areas of Malindi and Magarini who have been affected by floods have petitioned the government to move them to higher ground as a permanent solution to the annual problem. Red Cross Malindi branch manager Hassan Musa said Kahindis act of courage could not be matched among his age mates.

More than 2,000 pupils in Malindi and Magarini districts unable to go to school because of the oods
When we arrived at around 10.30am, we found him testing out his raft, crossing from the marooned village, he said. He said the response team was intrigued by the boys creativity and used his invention to evacuate the 12 households in the village. We would have denitely used more time to evacuate them because most children do not know how to swim, he said. The Red Cross has pledged to train the boy as a volunteer and equip him with rst aid skills to use at school and at home. For now he remains among the more than 2,000 pupils in Malindi and Magarini districts unable to go to school because of the oods. They hope the government, through the Ministry of Special Programmes to implement a proposal by the departments of education in the area to have satellite schools set up so childrens education is not interrupted by the oods.

The PM said the NSIS had warned that the use of tribal groupings to rally ethnic communities to denounce the ICC process could lead to inter-ethnic tensions between those perceived to be for and against the process. The premier was brieng MPs on the measures the government has put in place in preparation for the
election. He said the political environment required urgent cooling to stop it from overheating along ethnic lines. Among other measures, the PM said 7,000 police ocers had been recruited and trained to provide security during the election. But MPs accused the PM of being
alarmist, arguing that his opposition to the March 4, 2013, election date was fanning animosity. Mr Odinga said holding elections in March will interfere with the school calendar and the Budget cycle. I have stated clearly what the Cabinet position was. It was not a unanimous position but it was a position all the same, he said. Eldoret North MP William Ruto accused him of causing confusion by giving personal opinion instead of the ocial stand. The PM has told Kenyans how Kenyans should engage in elections based on manifestos, he has also explained in detail that parties shouldnt be ethnic based. Those are very good values given by the PM, but I dont know whether the PM was listening to himself, Mr Ruto said. Gichugu MP Martha Karua agreed with Mr Odinga. A ruling of the court does not stop us from thinking and as a thinking Kenyan I disagree with that, she stated, urging the government to go for December as set in the Constitution. Cherengany MP Joshua Kutuny asked the PM to provide a roadmap to peaceful elections. The PM cited laws enacted to facilitate the process and activities at the electoral agency.

Ondieki opposed the request, accusing the police of rushing the suspects to court before completing investigations. The hurry with which the police dashed the accused to court cannot be a good reason to request that they submit again for further investigations. Police should have taken their ngerprints before arraigning them, Mr Muite said, arguing that police should charge a suspect only upon completion of investigations. It is against the spirit of the Constitution to ask a court to hand over a suspect to the ocers to complete their investigations, Mr Muite stated. In a brief ruling, Mr Obaga declined the States request, saying the police have themselves to blame for not completing the investigations before charging the suspects in court. The magistrate xed the hearing of the case for July 9. Mr Obaga also directed the State to supply the defence with exhibits and witness statements within 14 days to enable the accused to prepare their trial. The ve denied eight counts against them and were each released on a cash bail of Sh200,000. The capital oence against them carries a death sentence upon conviction.

jsigei@ke.natiomedia.com he electoral commission will today meet MPs to discuss a Sh4.5 billion shortfall which it says threatens to disrupt the General Election plan. The Treasury has allocated the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Sh17.5 billion in the 2012/2013 budget, less than the Sh22 billion it says it requires to conduct free and fair polls. The commission and the parliamentary Committee on Justice and Legal Aairs conrmed that todays meeting would discuss the electoral budget. Githunguri MP Njoroge Baiya, who chairs the parliamentary team, said: We will discuss their budget including the proposals by the Treasury. In an earlier interview, IEBC chief executive ocer James Oswago had said the commission needed Sh22 billion to conduct the elections efciently. This is the money needed to compile a new voters register occasioned by the creation of 80 new constituencies, buying poll books, ballot papers, carrying out a fresh voter registration and paying the clerks, Mr Oswago had told the Nation.

proposal on the sharing of public funds among counties has raised serious debate, with critics faulting it for favouring economically-endowed regions. Essentially, the proposal by the Commission of Revenue Allocation provides for higher disbursements to the densely populated compared to the sparsely populated regions. The Commission estimates that the government will have to allocate Sh200 billion for the counties, slightly above the 15 per cent of the total revenue generated in any given year. For good reasons, the proposal has generated a lot of heat, with some politicians threatening to shoot it down when it is tabled in Parliament. They argue the formula is unfair to poor counties, most of which are sparsely populated. Thus, they are asking for a review of the formula to include variables like poverty levels, geographical and even climatic conditions. Sharing public resources is fraught with challenges. No single formula can work miracles, more so in a situation of mistrust and intolerance. This is especially so in a country that is coming out of a dark past, where resources followed political power. In response, the Commission proposes a coordination committee whose task will be to focus on the disbursement of Equalisation Fund, which is additional cash earmarked for poor counties. The idea of a committee is reasonable because it serves the constitutional requirement stipulating that decisions on cash allocations must involve many players and must be done equitably. But even the committee is not enough. The Commission must nd more innovative ways of involving the public. If there is one thing that could derail devolution, it is resource allocation. It must therefore be handled very sensitively.
he 22nd World Economic Forum (WEF) is meeting in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa. There have been a lot of articles and programmes in world media about how the WEF is taking place in Addis Ababa at a time when the continent is poised for economic takeo, and when it has six of the worlds 10 fastest growing economies, and so on. The idea that Africas time has arrived is rmly taking hold. However, the continent still has the worlds poorest people, its sickest citizens, most failed states, and lowest level of investment in research and development. So, everyone agrees, we need to x a few more things before we can rule the world. I listened to a radio programme in which the presenter asked; what are the two things Africa needs to x to become rich? Tough question. However, I have my two ideas. In the last few days oods (both ash and nonash oods) have killed at least 50 people in Kenya. It occurred to me to check the number of people who have died at the coast where thousands cross with the Likoni ferry to and from work daily; go out shing
World Economic Forum on Africa: Secret of how we can grow very rich T
for a living; and so on. I couldnt nd a current gure. However, sometime back police said that in an ordinary year an average of 20 people drown around the areas of Mombasa, Malindi, Kili, and so on. Occasionally, you have a boat or ferry disaster and over 100 people die. However, that doesnt happen every day or even year, so let us stick with an ordinary year. The issue here is that in Kenya, and most of Africa, water is more likely to kill you when you live on land, then when you live or work on water. So the rst answer is that if Africa can conquer water, it will become the worlds richest continent. In oods, we die and eventually go hungry because the water ruins our crops. When the water goes away, and it becomes dry, we die in even larger numbers from famine because we didnt harness water while it was around in plenty. Its a good statement of Africas inability to prot from its gifts. Also, more than 50 per cent of Africans dont have access to clean water, a fact that accounts for a lot of our diseases and lost man hours. I read somewhere that the United Nations estimates that sub-Saharan Africa alone loses 40 billion hours per year collecting water; thats the same as a whole years worth of labour by Frances entire workforce! In addition, the World Health Organisation says that for every $1 invested in water and sanitation, there is an economic return of between $3 and $34! We shall say no more. The second thing Africa needs to x is security of individuals. This means many things, but two examples will: Our institutions are generally weak, badly run, and corrupt. However, in nearly all of eastern Africa a woman is more likely to be raped or battered by her partner when she is a free individual in society, than when she is a prisoner. That our women are generally safer in our bad
Prison is a better place for poor people for they are likely to have at least one meal in two days, and a roof over their head
prisons than out there in society says volumes about the failure of the state and public institutions (police, courts, churches, mosques, civil society) whose duty it is to protect people, as much as the withering of our social institutions (family, neighbourhoods). Again, prison is a better place for poor people too. They are more likely to have at least one meal in two days, and a roof over their head in prison never that it will be in a horribly crowded cell than as free people out in society. There are many people who would say the second most important thing Africa needs to x is its democracy. The problem is that democracy is subverted most by insecurity. The most insecure time for the average Africa is during what is supposed to a transformative moment election time. If you are a Kenyan or Ugandan, for example, you are more likely to be beaten, cheated, or killed during elections and especially on voting day and after results have been announced than at any period.

will not apologise for beginning this article by demolishing two potentially misleading assertions by Prof Levi Obonyo in an article titled Media and Elections: Our journalists must follow the rules to prevent chaos (DN, May 2). Although the general tone and angle of the article is commendable, the two issues raised in his thesis are problematic. The rst is how he conceptualises the media and audiences (electorate). The former are assumed to be a homogenous entity that serve an undierentiated mass of audiences. The media in Kenya are diverse and serve the interests of fragmented audiences with dierent needs. And so, what does he really mean when he talks of the media? The second issue is the assertion that the media do not manufacture what they report; the responsibility for peaceful elections lies in the political class, who, in any case, set the agenda for the media. Theoretically, the agendasetting theory is time-worn. The media must refuse to accept the agenda of politicians and instead set the agenda for them through issue-based politics. The media surely manufacture consent through what they scholars such as Stuart Hall, Michael Schudson, and my colleague, Prof Tawana Kupe. There are some institutional mechanisms that determine journalistic practice shaped by political, economic and cultural factors. These mechanisms greatly inuence journalists in the process of news production. Furthermore, journalism is undergoing a major transformation and we have seen the emergence of new kind of journalistic practice (citizen journalism) through social networks such as blogs, Facebook and Twitter. So when we discuss the role of the media and elections and demand that journalists follow the rules, what media are we referring to, which journalists are we cautioning and what rules do we have in mind? These are issues that are clearly beyond the scope of agenda-setting. Prof Obonyos arguments are conned in approaches of understanding mainstream traditional media and risks being caught up in what I would call the McLuhanWilliams problematic. Marshall McLuhan and Kevin Williams presented a dichotomy in understanding new media as they sought to explore the best possibilities of understanding its character and culture (cyber-culture), the emergence of cybercitizens
and the diusion of power. McLuhan presents the idea of technological determinism, which is premised on the physical or natural sciences approach to epistemology where cause and eect are established. The approach led to the birth of media eects theories where agenda setting was popular. The idea that x causes y, emerging from the realm of physical facts, was experimented on by early media scholars in the US who concluded that television causes violence an idea that was later rejected. The new media have changed the character and conduct of politicians, electorate and journalists, and it seems there is no turning back. Is there any cause for celebrating such changes? Or should we now police the Internet? Though independent regulators are welcome to monitor the conduct of the media, cosmetic measures such as those proposed by the Media Council of Kenya should be carefully scrutinised since they can be used as mechanisms for the abuse of power.

TAKING IT TOO EASY. Popular public transporter Easy Coach has been doing an excellent job but its high standards are now being undermined by lateness, says Ken Ayieko. On May 7, the bus going to Siaya, on which his son travelled, left the Nairobi terminus at 10.30am instead of 9.30am. As a result, the bus reached its destination late and his son had to sleep in the companys lounge. Now, we have to explain to the school why the boy did not report on time, laments Ken, whose contact is ken.ayieko@yahoo.co.uk. FIX THIS STRETCH. Can the Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) x the 30-metre stretch of Outer Ring road adjacent to National Petrol Station and the new Taj Mall building, which looks worse than the lunar surfaces we see in pictures? urges Bernard Ochieng. The section, he adds, is a major culprit in the endemic trac jams, some lasting about 15 hours daily. Ochieng says KURA should make the section motorable before the planned major reconstruction of Outer Ring Road begins.
reject the argument that because Article 2(6) of the Constitution gives ratied treaties the force of statute law, the Mombasa Republican Council or anybody has a right to secede, simply because Kenya has ratied international treaties which recognise the right of selfdetermination for all peoples. The international law protects the territorial integrity of just democratic states. Kenyas Constitution does not explicitly recognise the right to secession. Indeed, the Preamble proclaims our desire to live in peace and unity as one indivisible sovereign nation, and Article 255(1)(b) prohibits any constitutional amendment aecting Kenyas territory, without approval through a referendum. Besides endorsing the reality that the State is united by consent and not force, the fact that the Constitution does not prohibit amendment to any matters, including of Kenyas territory, means that, implicitly, even if inadvertently, it recognises a procedural right to secession. That right is not substantive, absolute, unilateral or unlimited. It is heavily qualied by the imposition of procedural hurdles, allowing the Kenyan State to use the rule of law to control the secession process through consensual negotiation. Thus, the MRC is clearly within its right to demand secession if it feels that the Constitutions devolution, checks and

balances, entrenchment of civil rights and liberties, recognition of marginalised groups, integrity requirements, promise of democratic elections, and judicial review powers cant address historical injustices. However, the MRC must strictly follow the concrete procedure on how to secede. They should raise one million signatures and get the support of at least 24 county assemblies (Article 257). Alternatively, they can ask Parliament to initiate the move (Article 256). Then, to be approved, the secession must be supported by a simple majority at a referendum in which at least 20 per cent of registered voters in each of at least 24 counties must participate (Article 255(2)). It cannot secede unilaterally without the consent of, or negotiation with, the remaining Kenyan State. The rebellious chant that Pwani si
Kenya is poetry not logic; and to repudiate their obligation to obey the States laws amounts to seceding unilaterally. In that case, Kenya will have little choice but to engage in warfare with the MRC to determine which side wins control of the contested, seceding territory. And that will produce nothing but evil unmitigated in character and appalling in content. Finally, the key argument of the MRC that the treaty colonial Britain signed with the Sultan of Zanzibar allows them to secede, fails to recognise the fact that, throughout history, such oers of secession rights have often been used as a tactic to attract smaller groups into a larger political union. However, once the political union is attained, the right of secession is often delegitimised, either through practical politics or legal repeal, and attempts to secede result most often in a war by the central state to preserve political union. For example, while the US Constitution implied a lawful right of a member State to secede, President Abraham Lincoln responded to the secession of the Southern states with a war that preserved the Union and eectively settled the constitutional right of secession.

WHERE IS OGUNA? With the Kenya Defence Forces having joined Amisom, David Motari says he misses eloquent spokesman Cyrus Ogunas press briengs on the progress in the military campaign in Somalia. My favourite spokesman has been given a blackout and yet, as a patriot, I deserve to know what is going on in Somalia, even if our troops have become a part of Unisom. Or could our forces have just secretly pulled out of that country altogether? asks David, whose contact is dmots2005@yahoo.com. NO WATER IN UMOJA. For about three weeks now, the residents of Umoja estate in Nairobis Eastlands have not had any water, yet the city has been awash with oods as the rains have been falling day and night, moans Eliakim Dianga. If Nairobi Water Company is unable to supply all its customers, Eliakim proposes, the Ministry of Water or the water board in charge of the city should enable them to treat and use rain water. His contact is Tel 0722854221. DRIVERS TO BLAME. The real cause of the trac jams in Nairobi is not the rain or the roundabouts, but failure by most drivers to observe a simple trac rule that works like magic: Do Not Enter a Junction Unless the Exit is Clear, says Peter James Karanja. Peter would like to see all the junctions marked with the caution, No Stationary Vehicle in This Box, and those found to have outed this rule severely punished. The trac jams will be greatly reduced, says Peter, whose contact is pkaranjaj@yahoo.co.uk.

Its regrettable buildings continue to collapse
The lackadaisical approach to erecting buildings in Kenya is alarming, and is increasingly testing the patience of Kenyans. It is regrettable that many more buildings continue to collapse, leading to loss of lives and wasted manhours. We are eager to see this stemmed, as greed from building owners bent on hurriedly nishing the work in order to start making money is alarming. The thought that most are driven by greed at the expense of meeting safety standards is sickening. And as demonstrated by the Westlands building, such collapses are not the preserve of slums. TRACY NDEGWA, Nairobi

TALKING POINT
SHORT TAKES
BISHOP ODEYEPO: While I concur with Mr Killian K. Mavindu (Nation, May 9) that (people who) may have been sent deliberately by extortionists should be thoroughly beaten by Bishop Odeyepo, he should lobby to have the Catholics whom he gives examples of also cane all sinful people possessed of demons just like Jesus did. Again, we all know the Catholic Church is not somebodys property. All Catholics are shareholders. Who are the shareholders of LFWO? He seems to know more about this battering bishop. TONY LAW, Nairobi WRITING PASSION: From its conciliatory tone, columnist Philip Ochiengs sometimes I got it wrong, but it was not out of malice Sunday Nation, May 6) one would think he was quitting journalism. But it reminded me of another story where he claimed the Maragoli dont circumcise. So chagrined was I that I wrote to the Nation, challenging that observation. My rebuttal gave rise to a passion for writing that I never knew existed. I must thank Mr Ochieng and NMG for igniting my writing passion. ALEXANDER CHAGEMA, Kakamega SHODDY REPAIRS: Recently the contractor who wins virtually all road works in Western was paid a Sh1.2 billion to recarpet the road. If what I saw and heard Roads minister Bett saying in the media is anything to go by. However, the contractor has began doing what he does best: lling minor potholes, conveniently skipping huge ones like ones near i-Source Centre and at Ojolla Market. Can someone tell us why this contractor always does mediocre jobs? Why do engineers briskly sign certicates of completion? OKORE CHARLES, Maseno

Shallow politics
The recent bitter exchange between PM Raila Odinga and the DPM Musalia Mudavadi presents an opportunity for the public to vet these two presidential candidates. But the call by Mr Mudavadi asking the PM to retire alongside the President is shallow politics. The PM is not the incumbent President, and so is not bound by the constitutional two-term limit. Again, the DPM has been part of the coalition government. What has he done to uplift lives that he can use as the basis for asking his boss to retire? We need to hear politics driven

by ideologies, not personal attacks. Amid all the poverty, where do you get the time for rhetoric and personal attacks gentlemen? PATRICK MUTUA, Kibwezi
After Musalia Mudavadis departure, ODM has been behaving like a jilted spouse. Accusations against Mr Mudavadi have been fast and furious. He has been described as weak, cowardly, a traitor, a project and corrupt to boot. Did he acquire these negative traits overnight after leaving ODM? Its a case of sour grapes. DAUDI MWENDA, Nairobi
Sour grapes
POOR LAND GRABBERS: Yesterday in Bombolulu we witnessed a worrying trend in Coast where illegal squatters protest against lawful evictions and forcibly stay on in private land with the support of local politicians amid threats to involve the MRC. They rst erect mud structures to test the waters, then gradually move on to brick and stone. You will not miss a church in the mix for sympathy points against owners who used their savings and loans. They are greedy opportunists hoping to live without paying a cent. Being poor does not make one above the law. And its not a crime to be rich. MARTIN MAKUNDI, Mombasa
YESTERDAYS QUESTION
DEBATE QUESTION
Was the PM right to overrule Nyongo and appoint a new team to run NHIF?
JOHN KEGODE: It was right for the PM to overrule Prof Nyongo. ODM as the appointing authority would appear to be making money for elections which could portray the party negatively to the electorate who are the contributors to NHIF. ANTHONY GITTENS: The PM clearly found Prof Nyongos decision incompetent and was right to overrule it. It is time the professor was replaced. KOGI JAMLICK: Yes, the PM was right to appoint a new team, since the NHIF saga needs to be investigated by a new and independent team. ISAIAH OSALAH: Yes, Dr PM is 100 per cent right and he has the mandate. VICTOR ABUKA: He was not right. He insulated Prof Nyongo instead of ring him. CHARLES NZIOKA: Yes. The whole saga called for PMs intervention.

he Orange party yesterday notied Parliament of its intention to push the Treasury to release Sh17.6 billion owed to teachers who retired between 1997 and 2003. Mr John Pesa (Migori) led the notice which, he said, was sponsored by ODM and seeks to have the 31,082 teachers paid following a court decision in their favour. Mr Pesa said it was essential that the teachers be paid even though some of them could be dead due to the tough life they had been forced to endure.
He said Sh3.34 billion had been allocated in the last Budget and the money risked being returned to the Treasury at the end of the current nancial year. Mindful that the delay in payment has caused the parties untold suering, this House urges the government to pay retired teachers their dues without further delay, said Mr Pesa (right). The resolution is set for debate in the House next week. The teachers were paid their pensions based on the salary they earned before retirement. They subsequently went to court to have their salary issue adjudicated since the 1997 agreement in Legal Notice No 534 of 1997 had not been honoured by the Moi ad-

70 elephants killed
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
The Kenya Wildlife Service will increase the number of rangers and buy more helicopters as part of a new strategy to combat poaching. KWS director Julius Kipngetich said yesterday that poachers had killed four rhinos and 70 elephants this year. Five rangers have also been murdered while the wildlife unit has killed 13 poachers. He said at a press brieng in Nairobi yesterday that the ratio of rangers to rhinos would be increased for easy tracking of the animals. We now have two rangers assigned to take care of one rhino unlike in the past where we had only one ranger for one rhino, he said. Surveillance in parks and airports will also be stepped up to ensure illegal game hunters do not benet from their activities. KWS plans to buy a third helicopter tted with high lens cameras to help in surveillance. The poachers, he added, were a threat to Kenyas economy as they could easily kill the lucrative tourism industry. The director blamed the increase in poaching to increased prices if ivory. Last year, 278 elephants were killed.

CAMPAIGN | Ministry launches fortnight of awareness on importance of a healthy nation
RANK
fortnight of health campaign has been launched to create awareness on the importance of a healthy nation, especially its children. Known as Malezi Bora, the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation drive hopes to ght malnutrition, which is the underlying cause of at least a fth of maternal mortality, and more than a third of childrens deaths. According to deputy head of the department of nutrition at the ministry, Ms Gladys Mugambi, this years theme - Fighting for Nutrition - centres on improving the diet of children countrywide. Ms Mugambi warned that children whose bodies and minds were limited by stunting were at greater risk of catching diseases, adding that stunting could result in poor performance in school.

Nyeri Provincial General Hospital nurse Phrasia Njagi, left, trains a young mother, Ms Fridah Wambui, how to hold her newborn baby at the hospital maternity ward yesterday. The hospital was recognised as the best Level Five hospital in maternity services by Johnson and Johnson in conjunction with National Nurses Association of Kenya.
But Ms Mugambi said that breast milk was the best food for the child until six months because it not only served as food, but also provided the much needed immunity the newborn needed in the rst few years. The nutrition campaign by the ministry coincides with the week when charity organisation, Save the Children, released a report on global maternal health. It shows that while a child born in Kenya is more likely to be breastfed within the rst birth hour than one born either in Uganda or Tanzania, its a dierent scenario as the child grows, as Tanzania and Uganda beat Kenya at the recommended exclusive breastfeeding that should be observed in the rst six months. Sixty per cent of mothers in Uganda breastfeed their children the first six months compared to Tanzania that stands at 50 per cent and Kenya at 32 per cent. The World Health Organisation denes it as the practice of feeding only breast milk to allow the baby to receive vitamins and minerals. The 13th State of the 2012 Worlds Mothers report shows Niger as the worst place globally to be a mother in the world, meaning the health indicators are the worst among the surveyed countries. Norway was rated the best place to become a mother. However, Afghanistan which was rated the worst the previous year improved by one position to become the second last. The report describes the conditions of mothers and children in the bottom 10 countries as devastating and calls for concerted eorts by the government and donors to improve the health indicators. The report shows which countries are doing the best and which are doing the worst at providing nutrition during the critical window of development that starts during a mothers pregnancy and goes through her childs second birthday. Six key nutrition solutions, including breastfeeding, that have the greatest potential to save lives are highlighted by the report. The ranking compares 165 countries around the globe, and looks at factors such as a mothers health, education and economic status, as well as critical child indicators such as health and nutrition. The 10 bottom-ranked countries eight from sub-Saharan Africa are a reverse image of the top 10, and performed poorly in all indicators surveyed. The report notes that whereas virtually every birth in Norway is attended to by a

Ms Mugambi noted that some mothers did not exclusively breastfeed their children due to a myriad of challenges, including strict work schedules, stress and failure to eat balanced diet due to poverty. Holding the baby in the wrong position may lead to sore or cracked nipples, depriving the baby of milk, Ms Mugambi told the Nation in an interview yesterday. She cited the critical role played by health workers of screening children for malnutrition and oering solutions, thus averting the problem that later aected the childs growth and development Last year the ministry launched a Facebook page dedicated to breastfeeding to engrain the practice especially among young mothers. Breastfeeding is slowly losing popularity among the youth due to myths that abound about weight gain and sagging breasts.

health professional, only one in every 13 births are conducted. We urgently need global leadership on the malnutrition issue, so that policies and programmes are put in place to ensure the health and survival of mothers and their babies, said Carolyn Miles, president and CEO of Save the Children when releasing the report this week. The report details a vicious cycle of young mothers, who may themselves have been stunted in childhood, going on to give birth to underweight babies who have not been adequately nourished in the womb. Save the Children notes that in sub-Saharan Africa, up to 20 per cent of women are classied as excessively thin, while that gure rises to up to 35 per cent in South Asia. Sub-Saharan Africa also accounts for 18

out of the 20 lowest-ranking countries. The report further highlights that the best method for breaking this cycle and protecting the pregnant mother and her baby from malnutrition is to focus on the rst 1,000 days starting from pregnancy. This includes simple support measure of ensuring mothers continually breastfeed their young ones, a move that, it has been said, could save one million childrens lives annually. The report shows that less than 40 per cent of all infants in developing countries receive the full benets of exclusive breastfeeding. Our research shows that a mothers breast milk one single nutrition intervention can save a million childrens lives each year, said Ms Miles. All mothers should have the support they need to breastfeed if they want to. Breastfeeding is good for babies no matter where they live, but in developing countries, especially those without access to clean water, breastfeeding can be a matter of life or death, she added. The report urged countries to prioritise ghting malnutrition by setting targets to reduce its prevalence to reduce child mortality and thereby promote child health. The index relies on information published by governments, research institutions and international agencies. This report corroborates the situation in public health centres as was captured by the 2010 Kenya Service Provision Assessment Survey released a year ago by the government in partnership with other development partners. KSPA catalogued disparities in maternal health care across the country that leave women in rural areas vulnerable in an emergency. The report stated that only ve per cent of facilities nationwide can perform a Caesarean section and half of those facilities are in Nairobi, which leaves the rest of the country to share 2.5 per cent.

VERDICT | Judge says PM was one of the victims of the violent crackdown
BRIEFLY
TRIPOLI
imbabwe has dismissed a South African court judgment ordering the prosecution of its ministers and security chiefs for alleged human rights abuses saying the ruling is part of a regime change campaign in the country. A South African High Court judge yesterday ordered that prosecutors must investigate Zimbabwean ocials accused of torturing supporters of Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai ve years ago. The case centres on Zimbabwean officials accused of state-sanctioned torture against scores of activists following a raid on the headquarters of the Movement for Democratic Change in 2007. The South African Litigation Center (SALC) and the Zimbabwe Exiles Forum (ZEF) approached the court after South Africas National Prosecuting Authority refused to investigate the matter. SALC and ZEF cited that countrys obligations under to the International Criminal Court (ICC). Six ministers from President Robert Mugabes Zanu PF party and service chiefs are aected by the judgment and face arrest if they visit South Africa. Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa, a key ally of President Mugabe said the ruling was irrelevant and would not be enforced. These people are working in cahoots with the ex-Rhodies

(Zimbabwes former colonial government) who brought a case against government on the land issue, he said. They use the same source of funding to push a vendetta by white former colonial masters to cast Zimbabwe in the worst light to the world. The minister claimed the ruling had brought the South African justice system into disrepute. No specics have been identied because they should have laid a blow to blow account of what crime has been committed, Mr Chinamasa told state media. That the court made a ruling based on a generalised opinion is a sad moment for the justice system in South Africa. Judge Hans Fabricius of the North Gauteng High Court said Mr Tsvangirai was one of the victims of the violent crackdown by President Mugabes supporters. In 2007, the then opposition leader was badly beaten while in police custody after he was arrested during a prayer meeting in Harare. Pictures of a bruised Mr Tsvangirai splashed by the international media forced regional leaders to intervene in Zimbabwe yielding an inclusive government in 2009. There was reasonable suspicion that crimes were committed, Justice Fabricius ruled. ZEF director Mr Gabriel Shumba escaped Zimbabwe after he was allegedly tortured by police for his work as a human rights lawyer. If you look at the international trends and see how many people have been arrested for example, over the Rwanda genocide, this judgement will send shivers across Zimbabwe, Mr

Shumba said. The ruling is likely to give South African President Jacob Zuma a headache as Zanu PF already accuses him of bias in his mediation role in Zimbabwe. President Zumas government has also refused to release a report compiled by South African judges for his predecessor Mr Thabo Mbeki on political violence in Zimbabwe. He was appointed by the Southern African Development Community to mediate in the Zimbabwean crisis. The MDC hailed the decision. Torture is a barbaric instrument of dealing with issues of politics, spokesman Nelson Chamisa said. For that reason it remains our wish that all people of Zimbabwe with injured hearts and troubled minds are brought to restorative and rehabilitative, as opposed to retributive, justice.

udan and South Sudan faced a United Nations deadline on Wednesday to pull troops back from their disputed frontier, but Khartoum said it could not comply until there is a border agreement. Earlier today, Sudanese war planes have launched renewed air strikes against South Sudan, violating a UN Security Council resolution to end weeks of a bitter border conict, the Souths army said Wednesday. The Republic of Sudan has been randomly bombarding civilian areas, said Southern army spokesman Kella Kueth, who claimed the air strikes hit the border states of Upper Nile, Unity and Western Bahr el-Ghazal on Monday and Tuesday. It was not possible to independently conrm the reports and Sudan has repeatedly denied it has bombed the South. The people of Khartoum, they just deny, Kueth said, adding that both ghter jets and Antonov airplanes carried out the air raids. Both sides say they are complying with a United Nations Security Council resolution which ordered them to stop fighting from last Friday, amid international concern that the rivals could return to all out war.

Sudan and South Sudan around the time of the Souths separation last year. They have failed to implement those agreements, under which they were supposed to pull back 10 kilometres from the north-south border that was in place on January 1, 1956, when Sudan became independent. Under a May 2 UN Security Council resolution which seeks to address a serious threat to international peace and security both sides are to establish , a Safe Demilitarised Border Zone and jointly begin monitoring the frontier. The demilitarised zone would be monitored by observers from both sides, with security and other support provided by the UNs Interim Security Force for Abyei, or UNISFA, which is based in the contested region of Abyei. But a foreign diplomat has said the two sides refused to let UNISFA deploy along the border. The May 2 UN resolution says the call for a demilitarised zone and border monitoring in no way prejudices negotiations over disputed areas, and border demarcation. But Sudans foreign ministry said it already notied the UN and the African Union that it has reservations about the demand for a demilitarised zone. First the two states have to agree where the border is and sign an agreement. Then after that we can do the 10-kilometre withdrawal, said the ministrys spokesman Al-Obeid Meruh. The Souths army said on Wednesday it had pulled back its forces in line with the UN resolution. (AFP)

Britains Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh walk into the Chamber of the House of Lords to read the Queens Speech during the State Opening of Parliament in the Palace of Westminster in London yesterday. Queen Elizabeth unveiled the coalition governments legislative programme in a speech delivered to Members of Parliament and Peers in the House of Lords.
ong-serving Republican Senator Richard Lugar was routed in Tuesdays Indiana primary, marking the demise of a moderate at the hands of a conservative who deemed him too willing to compromise. Even as Richard Mourdock, the states tea party-backed treasurer, celebrated his stunning victory before ecstatic supporters, Democrats expressed hope that Mr Lugars defeat could help them snatch the seat in November. Mr Lugar (pictured) was rst elected to the Senate in 1976 and twice served as chairman of the chambers powerful For-
eign Relations Committee. The six-term incumbent was left flat-footed in his home state, losing his partys primary to a more conservative alternative by 60-40 per cent, according to US media projections. If Mr Mourdock is elected, I want him to be a good Senator, Mr Lugar said in a statement. But that will require him to revise his stated goal of bringing more partisanship to Washington. ... His embrace of an unrelenting partisan mindset is irreconcilable with my philosophy of governance and my experience of what brings results. Defeat of the man who shared the role of longestserving Republican currently in the Senate overshadowed a three-state presidential primary sweep by Mitt Romney, who marched closer to ocially clinching the Republican nomination.
Mr Romneys victories in Indiana, North Carolina and West Virginia pushed his delegates total up by about 100 to some 975, nearing the threshold of 1,144 needed to win the nomination and square o against President Barack Obama in November. Id say if youre an incumbent youd better not lose touch with home, said Senator Lindsey Graham, reecting sweeping criticism that Mr Lugar was too disconnected from Indiana voters and failed to acknowledge his own vulnerability this year until he was in deep trouble.

he man ordered by Al-Qaedas branch in Yemen to blow up a US-bound airliner was a double agent who inltrated the group and volunteered for the suicide attack, with Saudi intelligence likely playing a key role, US media reported. American ocials leaked out details of the extraordinary intelligence coup two days after the White House announced a plot by Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) had been successfully thwarted. The double agent managed to spend weeks with AQAP before handing over information that allowed the United States to launch a drone strike on Sunday that killed Fahd al-Quso, a senior gure who was wanted for the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen, the New York Times and other media reported, citing unnamed US ocials. A senior US ocial told the Times that a bomb for the would-be attack was sewn into custom t underwear that would have been dicult to detect even in a careful patdown at an airport. Unlike the device used in the failed December 2009 plot by AQAP to blow up an airliner en route to Detroit, this explosive could have been detonated in
two ways, in case one failed, the unnamed ocial was quoted as saying. The main charge was a high-grade military explosive that undoubtedly would have brought down an aircraft, the ocial said. ABC News had reported earlier that the latest plot by AQAP was thwarted by a spy who inltrated the group and took the explosive to Saudi Arabia. The CIA and other government agencies declined to comment on the reports when contacted by AFP. FBI experts on Tuesday were analyzing the seized explosive that officials said was an updated version of the underwear bomb used in a failed attack on Christmas Day 2009. Although ocials touted the disrupted plot as a success, they acknowledged AQAP remained determined to strike and its master bombmaker, Ibrahim Hassan Taleh AlAsiri, was apparently hard at work seeking to circumvent airport security. Saudi intelligence likely had the lead role in disrupting the conspiracy, possibly providing the double agent. (AFP)

We will start a thorough therapy programme which will take some time most likely it will take at least eight weeks and up to several months, the doctor said. Ukraine is facing a possible extensive EU boycott of the Euro 2012 matches it is co-hosting with Poland in June over its treatment of Tymoshenko, who was jailed for seven years in October after a trial condemned by the West.

ne of the major topics over the years remains the role the Soviet Union played in the lliberation of Europe from fascism and the exaggeration of the US and UK role in achieving the victory over Nazi Germany. Throughout the post-war period, the events of World War II are the subject of sharp ideological debate. The truth of history is that much of the war against fascism was carried out by the Soviet Union. This conclusion is based on an objective and comprehensive analysis of events and facts of the Second World War. The main front of any war is the one on which the warring parties pursue the most decisive goals and concentrate the bulk of the troops (the most ecient at that) to achieve them. During World War II the Soviet-German front was about 4,000 kilometres long in 1941 and more than 6,000 thousand kilometres in 1942, exceeding four times the total length of the North African, Italian and Western fronts. During the 1418 days the Soviet-German front existed, intense ghting was conducted during 1,320 days. On the Soviet-German front during 1941-1945 main forces of fascist Germany were concentrated. On other fronts 119 divisions fought, or 38 per cent. Thus, on the Soviet-German front before the beginning of 1944, 153 to 201 German divisions fought, and against the Allies.
Russias newly-inaugurated President Vladimir Putin (left) and new Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev speak as they watch Victory Day parade at the Red Square in Moscow, yesterday.
And though the opening of a second front shifted the balance of power, the SovietGerman battle-front remained the main one and drew away the overwhelming majority of armed forces of Nazi Germany and its allies. About seven million Soviet soldiers for over a year waged bitter battles with the enemy in the territory of 11 countries of Europe, covering over one million square kilometres. Major European capitals were liberated - Bucharest, Belgrade, Budapest, Warsaw, Vienna, Prague, Sofia, and Berlin. At the end of the war British Prime Minister Winston Churchill admitted that it was the Red Army that had decided ... the fate of German militarism. Charles de Gaulle noted:

The French know what Russia has done and know that it was Russia that has played a major role in their liberation. Meanwhile, today, in Moscow, newly-inaugurated President Vladimir Putin presided over Russias annual display of military power as missiles and thousands of troops paraded across Red Square to mark World War II victory. Two days after Mr Putins swearing-in, over 14,000 servicemen marched alongside nuclear-capable missiles to commemorate the 67th anniversary of the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany. Mr Putin watched from the stands with his new Prime Minister and former president Dmitry Medvedev, who had been confirmed in his post a day earlier, in a job swap scheme rst announced in September.

Fresh headache for policy makers as import bill rises
Kenya not out of the woods yet as escalating oil prices and stagnating remittances depress eorts to reduce bill, analysts say

TOYOTAS NET PROFIT DECLINES BY 30 PER CENT Automaker hit by a tsunami disaster and a strong yen. P.31
ECONOMY |Current account decit widens by 13.6pc in the rst quarter, putting pressure on shilling
enyas ability to pay for its increasing imports continues to weaken with the widening in the last four months of the current account decit, putting fresh pressure on the local currency. Data from a Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) report show that food, fuel, machinery and chemical prices have risen by 13.6 per cent of the countrys gross domestic product in the first three months of the year. The import bill as at the beginning of the year had grown by Sh170 billion to Sh368 billion from 2010. The situation has caught the interest of economic experts at research firm Renaissance Capital, who say that despite attempts by the banking regulator to formulate policies to reduce import costs, escalating oil prices a barrel of oil is at $115 currently wiped o any gains.
This implies that we are not out of the woods yet. Added to this, remittances which have grown strongly in recent months appear to have stagnated. We, therefore, think the situation explains the reluctance of the CBK to loosen monetary policy for fear of a weakening shilling, read the report in part. Kenya reported a trade decit equivalent to Sh59.3 billion in January of 2012. Usually, when the country records a strong current account, its gross domestic product expands boosted by export revenues. Renaissance Capital said the move by the international monetary fund to approve Sh16 billion in extended credit facility to Kenya has helped shore up the countrys forex reserves. However, analysts who cite capital equipment and machinery imports intended for infrastructure projects, particularly geothermal plants and road construction, remained strong in the period say the ballooning decit may not worry the CBK because the imports are investment related. Speaking to the Daily Nation on phone, analysts say Mr Karithi Murimi said that the eects of these will spill over to nancing the next budget, especially on implementing the devolution dream.

REVIVED | The housing construction subsidiary owned by Housing Finance became defunct 13 years ago
ortgage provider Housing Finance has revived its construction subsidiary, giving it headroom to tap into the lucrative property development market. The property development arm known as Kenya Building Society (KBS) was instrumental in putting up housing units in Komarock and Buru Buru estates in Nairobi in the 80s and 90s, before it became defunct for over 13 years until its revival yesterday. Speaking during the ground breaking ceremony at the construction site in Komarock estate, Housing minister Soita Shitanda, said this is part of a plan to provide adequate and affordable housing units to a fast-growing population in Nairobi and its outskirts. The growing urban population

has put pressure on the housing sector with demand standing at over 250,000 against a supply of only 50,000 units every year. The investment through the Kenya Building Society is part of the plan to provide aordable housing, in partnership with other stakeholders, Mr Shitanda said.
KBS has hit the ground running with a plan to put up 162 four-bedroom housing units at a cost of Sh800 million on 13 acres of land located in Komar-
ock estate in Nairobis Eastlands area. The houses will be sold for at least Sh6.8 million on completion. The revival of KBS is part of the mortgage financing companys plans to shore up its revenues. The company is positioning itself to rake in revenues from the property market due to rising demand. It plans to set up 15 satellite towns around Nairobi as the county system of administration begins to take shape in the country. We have more property in this area that we intend to develop, but we are also looking to partner with land owners to construct housing units to meet rising demand, especially from the middle and low income earners in the country, Housing Finance MD Frank Ireri said.

Toyota also forecast operating prot to nearly triple year-on-year to 1.0 trillion yen as consumers opt for small and economically priced vehicles, as well as green models, a key segment for the manufacturer. Our vision is to establish a strong business foundation that will ensure protability under any kind of difficult business environment, President Akio Toyoda said in a statement. Certainly the last fiscal year was extremely challenging due to the natural disasters in Japan and Thailand, plus the unprecedented strength of the yen. Japanese automakers were hammered last year by the
countrys huge earthquake and tsunami, which caused enormous production problems, while the later Thailand ooding created supply-chain headaches for firms with plants there. The yen, which hit a record high against the dollar in 2011, began to weaken early this year, a decline that will help exporters whose products become more expensive overseas when the currency strengthens. Toyota, which said it sold 7.35 million vehicles in the year to March for total sales of 18.58 trillion yen, down 2.2 percent, lost its number one spot in the global carmakers league last year. The company had been the worlds biggest automaker

MURDER | Argument with a video shop attendant provokes AP

ension is high in Muranga after an intoxicated police ocer shot dead a man and assaulted three other people. Police constable Dedan Njuguna Ngotho, who was later arrested and arraigned in court yesterday, went berserk on Tuesday night and killed Mr Victor Mwangi, 25, paralysing business at Gakurwe shopping centre and adjacent homesteads. According to witnesses, trouble started at around 7.30pm when Constable Ngotho, who was attached to Gakurwe AP post, was involved in an argument with a video shop attendant identied as Mr James Maina. The AP, who is said to have been drinking at a local bar, went for his rearm at the post and started shooting indiscriminately.

In the process, he shot Mr Mwangi two times in the head and shoulder, killing him on the spot. We scampered for safety as the AP abused us and ordered all traders to close their shops or be killed, said Mr Maina Njuguna, one of the businessman at Gakurwe shopping centre. Other residents claimed the ocer threatened to shoot dead a watchman before attacking a motorist and a motorcycle rider. He also harassed a woman and her children. The ocer then shot several times in the air, dispersing traders from the market. The trader said he called the area chief and councillor and reported the matter. We later heard a police Land Rover approach and police ordered the AP

to surrender and he complied, Mr Njuguna recounted. Mr Amos Mwangi, another witness, claimed that the police shot the ofcer before disarming him. While confirming the incident, district commissioner George Natembeya denied that the AP was drunk but was under the inuence of other drugs. He also dismissed claims that regular police ocers shot the AP before disarming him. We will put all measures to ensure our ocers carry out their duties in the most disciplined manner, Mr Natembeya said. The AP was taken to Kiria-ini police post and later transferred to Muranga. He was yesterday charged with murder at the High Court in Nyeri. Mr James Mukora, an uncle of
the deceased, condemned the incident and demanded justice for his nephew. It has become a routine for police ocers to shoot innocent people indiscriminately. This must end, he told the Nation. Elsewhere, a 35 year-old man was yesterday stabbed to death by his friend during a drinking spree at a bar. The incident happened at Chinga in Nyeri South district. Police said the two were enjoying drinks at a local bar when an argument arose and the assailant rushed to his employers house and came back with a sword. He stabbed Mr John Mugendi in the stomach. Central Police spokesman John Katumo said the victim died on the way to hospital. The assailant, a 45 year-old man, was arrested and the murder weapon, a Somali sword, recovered. Mr Katumo said it was not clear what triggered the argument between the two friends who were both tea pickers in the area.

law rm associated with a Cabinet minister has been allowed to auction the property of Naivasha MP John Mututho to recover legal fees amounting to Sh5.2 million. Kilonzo and Company advocates, a rm started by Education minister Mutula Kilonzo, are claiming the amount for representing Mr Mututho(pictured) in an election petition led against him by former area MP Jayne Kihara in 2008. Eorts by the MP through lawyer Gordon Ogolla to save his property failed after the High Court dismissed his application for an extension of time to allow him file a response. Mr Mututho told Lady Justice Roselyn Wendoh that the legal costs were inordinately high and unconscionable. Mr Ogolla claimed that the court did not inform his client about the initial ruling to allow

him object in good time. However, the application for an extension of time was dismissed by Lady Justice Wendoh who said that the suit had been overtaken by events. She added that the application was meant to scuttle the execution process since another court had issued orders for his property to be attached to settle the fees. Initially, lawyer Mutula Kilonzo Junior had wanted to be paid Sh13.4 million but the court cut down the figure to Sh5.2 million. The lawyer wants the fees as payment for defending the MP and re-tallying and computing the votes in court in an exercise that lasted for two months.

According to the National Taxpayers Association report, out of the Sh31 million allocated to Mrs Kilimos constituency in the nancial year 2009/2010, Sh16 million could not be accounted for. The money was allegedly allocated to ghost projects or misappropriated by project management ocials. But the MP dismissed the report as malicious and biased. The Cooperative Development assistant minister said at Chesongoch Health Centre yesterday: Though my constituency was the last, it was not out of the total 210 constituencies but only the 38 singled out. The development projects funded through CDF speak for themselves, she said, urging her constituents not to be alarmed by the damning

enyan 800 metres star David Rudisha yesterday chuckled at the fantastic thought of running the nal leg of the mens 4x400m relay at the London Games against double Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt. Rudisha, the world 800m champion and also the world record holder, is one of Kenyas main Olympic gold medal hopes, but has admitted he could run in the relay should the squad advance in the British capital this summer. The chances of Bolt adding the 4x400m to his already-charged programme of the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay is highly unlikely, although the Jamaican did say back in November that he would be available if he got the call-up. But Rudisha allowed himself a brief moment of fantasy before thoughts turned to setting his standard at tomorrows opening Diamond League meeting here.

It would be good, you know! he said, laughing. People have been saying for some time that it would be a very interesting race, having Usain and me doing the last leg together. It would be great seeing two world record holders in different events competing. That would be our meet point because Id come down to 400m and he would go up from the 100m and 200m. So wed meet in the middle, itd be great, a very interesting race. And who would emerge victorious? Rudisha avoided a direct answer with the alacrity of a well-oiled politician, instead focusing on the potential merits of the spectacle. Usain Bolt is fast, he has speed. I dont have that speed. I have a little bit of speed and my race It would fun . and enjoyable to watch for the fans, the towering 23-year-old said. Rudisha, whose father won 4x400m relay silver at the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico City, added: Usain

Bolt is a great athlete, and the greatest sprinter ever seen. We love him like our brother, and whenever we see him, hes doing such a great job ... in promoting our sport to a higher standard. We talk as friends, exchange a few words. We dont really talk about training because hes a sprinter and Im an 800m runner. Rudisha does not, however, face an easy outing on Friday at the Qatar Sports Club, notably up against Ethiopian youngster Mohamed Aman, who handed the Kenyan his rst 800m loss for two years in Milan at the end of last summer. Aman has since gone on to claim gold against a strong line-up at the World Indoor Championships in Istanbul in March, and Rudisha admitted that he had his eye on the Ethiopian. Aman is a young boy, good, talented, we saw him in the world indoors. Hes a good man and hes working hard, he said. Its good for me to have people like him because its good to get that challenge and he gives good competition which is so healthy for us, gives us quality races and allows us to compete at the top of our abilities. Rudisha added that he was aiming to put in a time quicker than his sole

In 2010, I was really preparing for fast races and breaking the world record, which was a little different coming into 2011 which was a championships year. This year is an Olympic year and that is my main focus, my priority. To win the Olympics is important and that is what Im so far missing. Preparation so far has been good, he said, adding that after the Olympics, Ill see if I still have something left to do something special. (AFP)

AFRICA WOMENS VOLLEYBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS | Kenyan clubs expected to shine on home soil
he race to Dohas World Womens Volleyball Clubs Championships starts with the African Womens Clubs Championships in Nairobi from today with 16 participating teams. Winners of the annual championships qualify to represent Africa in this years FIVB World Clubs Championships to be staged in Qatar in October. Kenyan teams, including defending champions Prisons, are among the clubs chasing the continental honors that will earn them chance to play at the lucrative World Clubs Championship which is being held for the fth time since it was re-intro-
duced in 2008. National champions, Kenya Pipeline, and Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) are the other home teams that have registered in the Championships. Kenyan clubs have brilliant track record as each one of the three teams has at one time won the continental trophy. But Pipeline and Prisons are currently viewed as frontrunners in the show because their line-ups boast of some of the most experienced players in Africa. Pipeline has among others experienced Asha Makuto, Catherine Wanjiru, captain Lucy Chege and Emily Chemutai in their arsenal. All these are veteran players who have been playing at international level for many years. Pipeline coach Japheth Munala admits that he has experience to his side but he is not ready to admit his team is favorites in the Championships. All teams have come here as champions of respective countries and therefore were not going to underrate anyone, he said.

BOOK LAUNCH | Dutch journalists expose on Kenyan stars mysterious death is released
I knew Samuel Wanjiru as someone with a perpetual smile on his face. This story claries the tragedy that was hiding behind it.
Jos Hermens, athletics manager, on the new book.
ext Tuesday, the sports world will mark the rst anniversary of Olympic marathon champion Samuel Kamau Wanjirus death. And to commemorate the stars passing, Dutch journalist Frits Conijn on Tuesday launched a book that seeks to answer many questions that surrounded the stars mysterious death following a night fall from the balcony of his Nyahururu home. The 288-page book titled Doodloper Het tragische einde van Olympisch marathonkampioen Samuel Wanjiru), which translates to Death Runner - The tragic end of Olympic marathon champion Samuel Wanjiru, has been published by Tirion Uitgevers of Herculesplein in Utrecht, The Netherlands.
Unique talent
The Dutch version hit the shelves on Tuesday with the launch of the English version expected soon. Doodloper is a story about unique talent, adultery, poverty, witchcraft, humiliation and the world of top sport. I knew Samuel Wanjiru as someone with a perpetual smile on his face, top athletics manager Jos Hermens of The Netherlands said in his foreward. This story claries the tragedy that was hiding behind it, the Global Sports Communications head adds.
Kenya was plunged in deep mourning. Samuel Wanjiru, the Olympic marathon winner of 2008 fell from his balcony and died at an early age, Conijn, who co-authored the book with Tanzania-born Simon Maziku, now a Dutch citizen, told the Daily Nation yesterday. There were rumours of suicide and murder in international media but a thorough investigation after his untimely death was not carried out. Until today, speculations about his fatal fall continue. Conijn and Maziku spoke to people from Wanjirus inner circle. In their book, they describe how the super athlete is confronted with the downsides of his international fame. How he ran on a road with a dead end. In collaboration with a Dutch pathologist, the authors found evidence of a cover up and their nal conclusions are staggering. Wanjiru remains an intriguing character, a man who gave the marathon a whole new dimen-

sion. He was someone who brought Kenyan tribes together, but ironically the dark circumstances around his death drove them apart again, Conijn said yesterday. Some claim his death was due to an unfortunate concurrence of circumstances, while others say it was brutal murder. The English version of Conijn and Mazikus book is titled Running on empty and also has a photos section. Conijn and Maziku spent months travelling between Kenya, Japan and Europe to dig into the myseries of Wanjirus life. Im not a sports journalist, but the intrigues of Wanjirus life made me develop interest into the young mans life and death, Amsterdam-based Conijn said. He was special in many ways and although I was never close to him, I felt like I knew him so well.
Germany coach Joachim Loew will remain in his post until 2014 even if his side fail to win Euro 2012, the German football federation (DFB) said yesterday. Loew (above) has been coach of Germany since July 2006 and has steered them to the Euro 2008 nal, where they were beaten by Spain, and a third place nish at the 2010 World Cup behind Spain and the Netherlands. Loews side remain among the favourites for victory in the Euro Championship in Poland and Ukraine on June 8July 1.

replace Mr Mudavadi with Mr Khangati to neutralise the influence of Justice minister Eugene Wamalwa in Bungoma County. Led by Mr Henry Okumu, the councillors said it was the only county in the province which did not have a Cabinet minister from the ODM wing of the coalition. But their Vihiga counterparts demanded that Mr Otichilo be appointed to the post because Mr Mudavadi hails from the county. Sources close to Mr Odinga said the choice of Mr Gumo, albeit in an acting capacity, had
caught many party members by surprise. We expected him to call a meeting of key ODM leaders or even MPs from Western to explain to them his choice before making it public but this did not happen, said an ally of the PM who asked not to be named for fear of appearing to challenge the decision. Nation learnt that those who had been pushing for Mr Namwamba argued his appointment would help sway the youth vote. But critics say it would be unfair for Busia County to have two ODM ministers, the other one being Mr Paul Otuoma of Sports while Bungoma had none.
