Tears And Anguish In Limuru As Two Children Burn To Death

The raging, hellish flames

The raging, hellish flames

It was a scene of tears, pain, anguish  disbelief and tormented anger as two young children died in a fierce fire when their house caught fire in Limuru in Ngarariga village at a place known as ha-Rufus just adjusted to the Nairobi - Nakuru highway. Their other two siblings escaped with serious burn injuries and were rushed to Tigoni hospital where they are receiving treatment. The children who perished names were given as Kevo and Ngugi and the other two receiving treatment at the hospital are Maryanne and Newton.

The fire which started at around seven caught the attention of the public ten minutes later by which term it was ablaze and since the parents of the children were not at home then, it was all confusion and misdirecting answers as some member of the public would on one hand say that there was no one in the house and other would say that there was someone in the house. The Mother of the children had gone to the shops when the house caught fire and she was too distraught and emotional to give any information

Then, one of the kids came out of the house when the door, which is alleged by those putting out the fire to have been closed from outside was broken open, screaming in agony and begging to be taken to hospital. It was then, that it became apparent that the other children were still in the house and the gathered Ngarariga dwellers did all within their power to put out the fierce, consuming flames using soil and water from a nearby tap. But the fire was proving too strong as it engulfed the wooden house and it was clear that not much would be saved as the hellish flames called the attention of the villagers from near and far.

Twenty minutes later, the Limuru fire brigade came but it was too late then and some emotional fellows almost stoned the fire brigade guy and he had to run away. Once the fire under country by which time almost the whole house was down, people started going through the debris. It was then that they came upon the most disturbing and emotionally tormenting image as the remains of one of the kid was found under a bed, burned clothes stuck to the body, where he had apparently tried to hide from frames after being unable to escape from the house and where the child may have chocked to death before burning. The other child was shortly discovered with his head buried under a cupboard where the same fate as his brother met him and once it was apparent that he had tried to escape through the door in vain.

 

Words are inadequate to express all the emotions that had engulfed the dwellers of Ngarariga and are even more inadequate to console the family and friend of the gone children and those suffering in hospital with burn wounds. We can only say sorry to them and wish the injured a quick recovery. May the soul of Kevo and Ngugi rest in eternal peace where there is no more hurting, hunger or torment. R.I.P

Kenyan MPs These Greedy Maggots.

Surely we are not that bad, come on now. We are kenyans too, your brothers and sister.

Surely we are not that bad, come on now. We are kenyans too, your brothers and sister.

Pigs is pigs, but what is in a name?

“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s needs, but not every man’s greed.” – Mahatma Gandhi

These greedy maggots have refused the name they were given by creative Kenyans.  They do not want to be called Mpigs which was concocted in reference to their greed which is akin to a terrible disease like the swine flu. In the book Animal Farm, pigs were used as the symbol of greed and rightly so as they are a perfect fit for pigs are known to eat almost everything. A friend of mine who rears these animals recently told me that the low-level of pig sty are built with metallic materials because pigs have been know to literary eat off stone walls, yes, they are that greedy. When a pig see food, it sees an opportunity to eat and when a pig sees an opportunity to eat, it eats until it falls down and this is exactly how the greedy MPs are behaving led by that incoherent black, fat guy who many were shocked to learn he is Kenyan due to his intense resemblance to Nigerian actors playing the role of drank idiots.

The greedy maggots, so they say, are religious, ha ha ha

“Greed is a fat demon with a small mouth and whatever you feed it is never enough.” – janwillem Van de Wetering

“And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” -Luke 12:15

Now, one of the most idiotly vocal greedy Kenyan Member of Parliament did not take the inference and reference to pigs very well, he thought it was insulting to his religion and his alleged religion is muslim, what was shocking and funny about that notion is that the majority leader is religious and even more shocking that there are MPs who are religious, that some of these creatures believe in anything else but themselves. No one would feel comfortable in a religous setting if an M.P was present. They are the greediest creature to have ever walked the globe and that is why they were being compared to pigs who if you have read that book animal farm, turned against their brothers after overthrowing their evil ruler the man . Mp now remind Kenyans of Judas in the way Christian pictures him

this is peanuts

this is peanuts

We can only compare these greedy opaque and stoical creatures to maggots. Yes, the MPs are like those creatures that consume the dead. In a country comprised of almost entirely the poor, the fewer rich (mostly from dirty deals) and the middle class have to barricade themselves behind walls for you can never live in ease and enjoy your loot if all around you are surrounded by poverty.

what can this buy me? Question is, what can it not buy me?

we are all rich in our way

“Successful people are always looking for opportunities to help others. 
Unsuccessful people are always asking, “What’s in it for me?” – Brian Tracy

The average income of a Kenyan is thirteen thousand Kenyan shilling per month which is about $150 while as the M.Ps current salary is pegged at more than 500 000 Kenyan shilling  or slightly over $6300. now, just look at those figures and then consider that they want more.  Long ago, while agitating for pay hikes, these greedy creatures  used to claim that all their income was eaten up by their expenses in attending harambees or paying for maternity fees for villagers or building dams or bringing tap water or basically being the father to all their constituencies but  now harambees have been banned and elected officials are forbidden by the supreme law of the land from being cynically philanthropic. Due to that, now the MPs are saying that they left very high paying jobs to join the parliament but what is defeating that line of argument is that they knew what they were going to earn while vying for the posts.

It seems education is not everything and it is not enough to make you clever, on the issue of sacking the salary commission that set those high salaries for the MPs  the constitution is very clear and you can not change it without a million signature but the not clever but educated MPs say they sack the commission  now where will the MPs  get a million signature to sack the commission? Kenyans should be the one agitating for the sacking of the commission for setting the MPs salary so high for, let’s not kid ourselves  in a country where the average income is thirteen thousand, 500 000 is a lot and it is only looking as if it is not a lot because the MPs are asking for more but if you look at it, it is a lot, an MP’s one month salary is what you will earn in three years if you are that average earner. It is Kenyans who should be agitating for the Sarah Salem’s commission to be disbanded for setting the parliamentarians salary so high.

These greedy maggots have sick reason for wanting more

“Despair filled his skull even more tightly than his own brain. All around him cars filled with normal people perfectly unaware of the disease turning Perry’s body inside out. Fucking normal people.”  - Scott Sigler

And it all boils down to sexually transmitted diseases. We have been informed by their doctors who for obvious reasons must remain anonymous that most of these M.Ps have chronic sexual diseases and these clamour for higher salaries against all logic is so that they may manage to pay for expensive medication and trips to foreign land to meet witch doctors to cure them, other have several wives and mistresses and they have been compelled by courts to pay monumental allowance, plus as they so coherently said, they can not have their children going to public schools like the other stupid Kenyans nor can they be expected to live in dung dwelling places and cave like the other lazy and poor Kenyans. As Anyang’ Nyo’ngo said, his lunch at Serena hotel cost 5000 ksh. which is what you pay your house help before these stupid laws were effected which now mean most house-help will be jobless.

Tell Jesus that these are my needs, do not bother, I will tell him myself.

Tell Jesus that these are my needs, do not bother, I will tell him myself.

In the end, we find they really need the money

“Chris: I don’t know why it is, but every time I reach out for something I want, I have to pull back because other people will suffer.” –  Arthur Miller

If a dog pursue you yet it looks weak and one kick from you would kill it and it knows that yet continues to follow you, that dog probably has rabies  it has been pushed to do what it is doing. a wild animal will only attack a human when it knows or feels that that human will kill it. snakes almost always slither away rather than attack human if they feel safe. we all saw those dramatic scene of Maasai taking meat from a park of lion. now, taking this analogy and comparing mps to these animals what do we see? do we not see a common pattern? In spite of all the protests from Kenyan which were recently taken to the street and in spite of the fact that the MPs know they are in this greedy battle alone, why are these maggots still fighting what is clearly a war they can not win? why are they trying to go through the eye of a needle?

Almost all these maggots know that they will never be elected again. This is thus their only chance to eat. why will they never be elected again? because they are not leaders, they are maggots and every real leader know that the leadership itself is enough reward as that software guy bill gates said As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others. when you claim to be a leader and all you are trying to do is enrich yourself and thus empower yourself, you come of as a cheap a slob and these maggots only know this too well. They know the picture they project to us and they know we will never elect such cheap maggots again. And here is another one: Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others. —Jack Welch

Angelina Jolie Has Had Both Her Breasts Removed

angelina-jolie-and-brad-pittMr. and Mrs. Smith star, also the wife of brad Pitt has had both her breast removed after doctors told her that she had 80% chance of developing cancer.The move is seen as brave by the world, in an interview, she said “My doctors estimated that I had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and a 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer, although the risk is different in the case of each woman, Once I knew that this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much I could. I made a decision to have a preventive double mastectomy.”

This is not the first time that such a proactive step had been taken, in 2008, Fellow actress Christina Applegate had a similar thing done and she lives to date Angelina Jolie wrote that her experience involved a three-step process. On February 2, she had a procedure that increases the chance that the nipple could be save and then Two weeks later, she had major surgery where the breast tissue was removed and temporary fillers were put in place. Nine weeks later, she underwent “reconstruction of the breasts with an implant.”

“There have been many advances in this procedure in the last few years,” she said, “and the results can be beautiful.”

In an exclusive interview with american media huge movie star Brad Pitt said he’s “quite emotional about it, of course.” and went on to say why her coming forward was important. “It doesn’t have to be a scary thing. In fact, it can be an empowering thing, and something that makes you stronger and us stronger.” this was of cause what he was expected to say but you and everyone know that he is very scared and their relationship, sexual relationship that is, will never be the same again.

However, all said and done, we must all be proud of the emotional and spiritual strength of the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider star who also mesmerized us in salt and other great movies. The fact that she did not wait for a deteriorated medical condition to force her to undergo the mastectomy (surgical removal of breasts), The fact that she did not choose to hang on to that 20% chance show incredible strength and fortitude and we must all. applaud it.

In the interview, Jolie said that she had herself screened because her mother died at the age of 56 almost a decade after she was diagnosed

Having a mutation in BRCA1 gives women a 54% chance of developing breast cancer and a 39% chance of ovarian cancer by age 70, according to the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center. Having a double mastectomy can reduce those risks by more than 90%, although there is still a small risk that cancer could develop in the skin left behind, or in the armpit.

The attention that Jolie revelation and to cancer in general is invaluable, People will now be talking about cancer for a while and this may force some people to go for screening which could save lives for as has been shown, early screening and discovery often lead to early treatment and cure.

Jolie Is A strong Woman

Even while enduring a three-month process for the surgery and reconstruction, Jolie’s was so busy that no one would notice a thing. In March, for instance, a month after her treatment had commenced, she went on a soul sapping humanitarian visit to Congo. She attended the Women in the World Summit in New York in April, and then travelled to London for the G8 Summit with British foreign secretary William Hague.

“This was during Stage 2,” Pitt said in an interview. “Literally it was just weeks after she’d had truly major surgery.”

“It certainly underscores that not all breasts are created equal,” says Karuna Jaggar, executive director of Breast Cancer Action.

“It’s hard to say I won’t be beautiful without my breasts when you see the most beautiful women in the world — in so many ways — go through it herself,” says Bragman, the PR professional. “She’s redefined beauty.”

the shame of failure

Now that I have spoken to you
Made my heart desires known to you
Given you a potion of my heart
Walked with you this past months
Failed to keep promises I promised
Got drank and ruined our bed
Staining our room with such strong stenches
Where when we make love
We collapse down spent
like long travelled hungry doves
Now that the truth of my heart
Is something you can hold a mirror to
And our religion is something you mock
and their religion is something that stink
And politicians in these sorry shore
Have acquired godlike status as such and thus
for the people have nothing bigger to look up to
And their vision are crowded in hunger
And I meant to fulfil all my vows
I meant to let you all know that
All my paintings were for you
I have dreamt of pleasing you
My nights are spent wishing for your smile
And your half felt approval
But you have other suitors
they crowd you day and night and secret lives
And with them I fight and seek to murder
When we walk the sunny street
And I feed the hungry who there preach
It is in an endeavour to win your heart
For I am not at heart generous.
I love you so that you may love me
for it is so so sweet to be loved
I loved what silly things you do and tell me
And that likewise my song you may sing with me
I know you did not like that movie
And I must confess I slept through half of love is us
Although I later extolled its virtues.
I meant to write everyday
A poem for each day
As a gesture of love.

Mutula Kilonzo’s Family Hire Foreign Pathologist

did he die with big secrets?

did he die with big secrets?

following the sudden death of Mutula Kilonzo, his family has decided not to trust Africans with such a sensitive affair and gone ahead and hired a Briton to do the post-mortem. It seemS Africa has a long way to go if filthy rich Africans always have to rush to white people to do this and that especially matters to do with health as affirmed by Beth Mugo, Anyang’ nyong’o (who were then country’s health ministers) and now even the family of mutula kilonzo that can not even trust the dead body of Mutula to local pathologists

It has to be said that the choice of a Briton for the pathologist was a very poor choice for British were the colonial power that colonized Kenya in those days and this move by the Mutula Kilonzo family will seem to affirm the notion that most African states are still under shadow colonisation from their former slavers. it was not lost on many that the British were very vocal in their support of the cord candidate for presidency of Kenya. if the Mutula’s family was looking for Impartiality and best brains, their best choice would have been a Jew since as everyone know, they are not only the smartest people on earth but also very impartial on all matters not to do with Arabs.

It is now being claimed in some media quarters that prior to his death, he had informed a journalist that he had a huge secret he would release to the world soon, a secret that he claimed would shake the country and throw it into panic and mayhem and as a result the questions being asked is whether that to be released secret led to his death. This we may never know.
