KENYANS, WE CAN DO BETTER TO OUR FALLEN SOLDIERS

Since the broadcast of the pusillanimous, spineless, timid, nerve-racking, barbaric and intimidating assault to our very able men in green soldiers by the Al Shaabab cowards in Somali, I have all along been contemplating and researching on the preeminent way to appreciate not only the fallen soldiers but also those living and serving our country in various parts of this country and out of this country. Agony as grieved me, tears of sorrow have trickled down my chick, the thought of smuggling a gun and trekking to Somalia to fight along these soldiers has all along been lingering in my mind. But unfortunately, my efforts and powers are limited to just a pen, a paper and my thoughts. I hope my thoughts will touch many of my fellow Kenyans.

I have to say this to you dear Kenyans; we need to do more than just the # tag thing on the social media platforms. A times it beats my logic and just settles for a mere PR. Not that am opposed to the hash tag #IStandWithKDF and similar previous hash tags that crop up whenever there is a citizen affecting catastrophe, but its because I have a sensation that these ash tags are not in any way beneficial and valuable to our affected people especially our hard working and assiduous brothers and sisters, sons and daughters who risked their lives to defend the sovereignty of this country.

Upon researching and reading on the Soldiers’ Angels, a US citizen-led initiative to provide aid and comfort to the army and their families, I came to a thoroughly well thought conclusion that Kenyans should just go beyond this HASH TAG thing that does not bring help, food, or comfort to our heroes, the men in green. Just like the US Soldiers’ Angles, whose mantra is “May No Soldier Go Unloved’, Kenyans, starting with me and you, should initiate better ways to show love, appreciate and provide help to our both fallen heroes and those who carry on to spend sleepless nights in the bush, the wilderness and war-torn countries to ensure that you and I sleep comfortably in our domiciles enjoying that Mukimo, Managu, Githeri and fried chicken for the haves.

How many soldiers and their families could have gone without reparation after suffering fatalities and death of their loved ones while defending us and our country from the stupid coward enemies? Of course there could be a couple of them. So, as patriotic Kenyans, let’s initiate monetary strategies, food aid strategies, and physical visits or what ever form of strategies to show real affection to our affected soldiers, those who continue to relentlessly fight on the front line and families AND STOP THIS EUPHORIA OF THE HASH TAG #IStandWithKDF. We have before done this better to cancer victims, hunger victims in Turkana, Mt. Sinai fire victims, post violence election IDPs, gender-based violence victims etc. WHY NOT OUT SOLDIERS?

REST IN PEACE OUR FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS

THE DRUNKARDS OF KAHAWA WENDANI AND PROSTITUTES OF ZIMMERMAN

Image
I assume when Njoki Chege recently spoke about the Kinoo and Roysambu men did so without well researched facts. I think too unlike me, she is not widely travelled both locally and internationally. Unfortunately, she is not well travelled even within the Nairobi area. Anyway, I forgive her for her blind knowledge and the ignorance to know her country to know facts of the things I write especially on the drunkards of Kahawa Wendani and prostitution in Zimmerman. Kahawa Wendani is an estate-cum-market that borders the wealthy and rich Kahawa Sukari Estate. On the far end, there is the thug infested Githurai 45. If Njoki Chege wants the definition of the wealthy and rich people, let her travel to Kahawa Sukari estate….forget the Karen and Runda estates and the likes of akina Chris Kirubi…..its only in Kahawa Sukari where we have the low profile wealthy and rich people mainly of Meru origin.....sifa kwa Wameru yawa!! And for the gold diggers….if you want a ki-wealthy rich mzee ...

MY EXPERIENCE DATING A HORNY INDIAN GIRL: PART 1

Image
The sun had risen early enough unlike other days, magnificently shining the rays directly at my face straight from the cloudless blue skies. The wind was wafting, directly flipping my old white Puma jersey in and out of my scraggy body structure as I sat at the balcony of Mzee Kimani’s old flats deep in the rural villages of Ruiru. My mind was busy in deep thoughts contemplating of an Indian girl I had met a few days ago. In between my thoughts, I often got jumbled and lost in the wilderness of thoughts of because I never had thought of dating a woman of an Indian origin. This was a strange happening; a strange feeling. However, as nature would have it, in my thoughts, I found my body, mind and soul attractively getting glued to this invisible fine-looking Indian woman girl. I would describe this Indian girl as one of the very few gorgeous Indian women I had seen in the streets of the ‘city under the sun’. You of course know that Nairobi is no-longer a city under the sun but a 'cit...
