I SUPPORT ACCESS TO QUALITY SAFE ABORTION BY ALL WOMEN

I want to rightfully, correctly and clearly state my stand on safe abortion. However, before I scribe my stand on an issue that not many of you would wish to speak about, its statistically important to know about safe and unsafe abortion.

Approximately, more that 470,000 women procure abortion in Kenya. Of these, interestingly 16.5% are between ages 10-19 years. Think of that. That age could qualify to be that of your daughter or my daughter. In addition, a significant number, 300,000 of these induced abortions take place in public hospitals. 37% of the women suffer severe complications, 40% suffer moderate complications while 23% suffer low complications. Significantly a huge number.

With that shocking and blood shedding tears background, you can easily read my stand. Just like gays, lesbians, atheists, donkeys and all human beings need their rights, women too need rights to access and procure quality safe abortions without prejudice, discrimination and stigmatization. Kenyans, 470,000 is JUST NOT A NUMBER. I support safe abortion.

I know you will haunt me and hurl words at me on religious backgrounds. But did you ever ask yourself on the correct stand on abortions from a Biblical point of view? Very positive. You go read well. Have you ever imagined your daughter pregnant at the age of 10 from an odious rape? Have you imagined your spouse expectant with mistimed and unwanted pregnancy? Expectant without a choice? Have you imagined of those beautiful women and children whose skeletons coldly lie 6ft below the ground as a result of unsafe abortion? Shedding tears.

Those questions and their answers pushes me to openly support safe abortion; at least for the sake of our beautiful women and children. As a nation, I would wish that we embrace safe abortion positively whilst supporting the uptake of family planning methods; IUCDs, Implant, Injectables, Condom use not forgetting the natural family planning method popularly known as withdrawal method. I SUPPORT SAFE ABORTION.

Have  Fabulous Safe Abortion Weekend

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...
