GOVERNOR CALLS FOR DEVELOPMENT AND SENATOR NTUTU OPPOSED NAROK DEVELOPMENT AND BECOME FIRST TO ACCUSE;

We send our condolences to the people of narok at large and the victims of yesterday flash floods which has hit the town. This is due the heavy rains experienced across narok and county at large.

Narok is a peaceful place for decades and currently the political turmoil is being driven by self interests. We need to deeply look on the crisis upon the developments in narok county.

The latest upon being the floods in narok town. The heavy downpour has led the destruction of properties and lives. The town is situated in between two hills which may lead to continuous floods.

Narok Senator and MPs are on record opposing the move by Governor tuna I to relocate the town to a hill place that is safe for constructions and will evade the frequently faced floods.

Ironically, they are the same who swiftly came in and accuse the government for not acting upon the state of towns. The senator has refused to sit with the governor over the development in the county.

Blaming the county government by the senator team is uncalled for and the team should not sit on the fence on double standards. The opposed the development and now accuse on undervelopment.

The Governor on January has awarded tender to a Chinese company to expand the drainage system in town. The drainage has however started but the corrosion of soil in the hills can't gave space for contractors but they have managed to drain all water ways in narok town.

Our Roads in Narok are better Now

Two years since the advent of devolution, Narok Governor Samwel Ole Tunai says the county has achieved commendable growth in various sectors despite the opposition he has faced from a section of local leaders. Tunai said the county, whose slogan is 'Home of the Seventh World Wonder', now has the first-ever tarmac road after years of neglect of the critical sector by previous regimes and the defunct local authority. The six-kilometre road from Nairegia-Enkare junction to the trading centre is complete and ready for commissioning.

The county chief said they have set aside a whopping Sh1.2 billion in the 2013-2014 budget for the upgrade of roads and so far over 800 kilometres have been rehabilitated. He revealed that they have earmarked Sh800 million for the third phase of the project after successful completion of phase one and two. Tunai says the county can only realise its full potential if the road network in the area is up to scratch.

"Roads infrastructure is a critical component to our economy and that is why we are investing heavily in the sector," he said. He adds: "We want to be done with roads by next year so that we can start focusing on other areas," said Tunai.

The county chief warned contractors who do shoddy work that they risked having their contracts cancelled. He at the same called on residents to closely monitor road works in the area and report contractors doing substandard work.
"The best people to audit and interrogate what is happening are those living in the areas where such roads are being constructed," he said.

Testimony of GOODIES OF NAROK AMBULANCE; Thank You Governor Tunai

Many communities in rural Kenya, including the village of Sitoka, have no roads, making it extremely hard for women and children to get to hospital. Christian Aid provided a rough terrain ambulance as part of the maternal and child health project in Narok County. The ambulance is on call 24 hours a day. Jane
Kukan is one of the hundreds of women who have used the service. She says she owes her life to the ambulance.

Ten days after Jane had given birth, she started to feel pains in her stomach.
The 28-year-old had delivered her daughter, Abigael Resian, by Caesarean in the local hospital and was sent home three days later. It had been a bumpy ride back to the village - but it always is once you leave the main road.

Everything had been going well and she was enjoying being at home with her baby daughter. But one morning she felt stabbing pains and saw that her stitches were bleeding.

It was raining that day and her husband, Francis, was away working in a neighbouring county. The roads were very bad and Jane knew it would be hard to get a taxi to come to her home, even if she could have afforded the 8,000 Kenyan shillings (close to £60) for the fare. She was also worried because her home is
across the Sitoka river, which had burst its banks in the heavy rain.

Jane called her husband to tell him she needed to go to hospital.

Francis said: ‘I was very worried as I was working in Kajiado, which is far away. I
immediately called the chief of Sitoka who gave me the number for Dan, the ambulance driver.

I called Dan, who was very supportive. He assured me that he was driving straight to Sitoka.’

The four-wheel drive ambulance was able to cross the river and reach Jane within the hour, taking her to Kilgoris hospital for a check-up. The doctors discovered that her stitches hadn’t healed properly after the Caesarean - possibly they had ruptured on the journey back to the village. The doctors redid the stitches and told her to move as little as possible so that they would hold together.

Recalling the day, Jane said: ‘Without the ambulance, I’m scared I would not have made it. My husband was away and I could not afford to hire a car. Luckily, my husband called the ambulance. They do not charge us for the service.

‘Without the ambulance, I wouldn’t be alive today, only God knows. Many women in our communities do not make it. I thank God for the ambulance service and for Dan for responding to our calls.’

The ambulance serves several communities in Narok County and is looked after by Christian Aid’s local partner, Transmara Rural Development Programme. Villagers don’t have to pay to use the service to get to hospital, although, as Dan explains, for the return journey people are asked to make a contribution towards its running costs.

‘We ask those who can to pay towards the fuel costs as this is a shared resource and community members are invited to cost-share. Most people find it reasonable and are glad to contribute. This also helps us cover part of the
maintenance costs.’

The ambulance is also used for mobile health clinics in villages that do not have their own local clinic, bringing health services to hundreds of families across the county.

KANU ALIGNMENTS TOWARDS MAJOR POLITICAL OUTFITS

A political storm is brewing in Rift Valley following
the scramble for the voter rich region which has
intensified.

Baringo Senator Gideon Moi, over the weekend, held
a meeting with Bomet Governor Isaac Rutto at the
Maasai Mara lodge in the company of Narok Senator
Stephen Ole Ntutu, Kericho Governor Paul Chepkwony
and KANU Secretary General Nick Salat kicking off
talks of imminent political realignments.

However, Salat who spoke to the press, said the
breakfast meeting was meant to deliberate on the
way forward as well as ways to solve issues of
National concern like insecurity.

“This was just a breakfast meeting, but I can assure
you that Kenyans will witness more political meetings
in the future aimed at uniting them,” said Salat.

The meeting has however been interpreted by pundits
as a plan to advance the ongoing political upheaval
in the region to put Deputy President William Ruto’s
grip to the test.

Senator Ntutu in February led Narok MPs in snubbing
a reconciliation meeting between them and Governor
Tunai, which was to be held at Ruto’s Karen home
in Nairobi.

While Chepkwony grappled with an attempted
impeachment last year that was allegedly instigated
by the Deputy President.

On his part Isaac Rutto, who is the council of
Governors chair has pointed an accusing finger at the
Deputy President over the woes bedevilling him as
politicians allied to the DP have been leading
demonstrations against him over the site of a
proposed universty.

The Bomet Governor Isaac Ruto had in the recent
past hinted at working with KANU saying the
Independence party is a more natural home for Rift
Valley voters than the Jubilee Alliance Party (JAP).
This was after his political rivalry with the Deputy
President burst at the seams after he declared that
Ruto was unfit to rule terming him a “roaming
dictator”.

It is majorly because of this that the meeting
between Senator Moi, who has declared his interests
in vying for the country’s top seat, and the three
critics of the Deputy President, has fuelled
speculation of a political pact between them ahead of
the 2017 general elections.

Narok demonstrations calling for the ouster of Governor Samuel Tunai have been postponed.

Narok demonstrations calling for the ouster of Governor Samuel Tunai that had been slated for Monday have been postponed.

The team led by Narok Senator Stephen Ole Ntutu, wants the governor out over allegations of misappropriating county funds.

Previously, Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph Nkaissery had suspended all rallies and demonstrations in Narok, warning that the escalating tension in the county could result in violent confrontations.

A past demonstration in the area turned violent leading to the death of two people while several others were injured. Narok residents had taken to the streets protesting the manner in which the county government spent money collected from the world-famous Maasai Mara Game Reserve.

Some of the leaders who are pushing for Governor Tunai’s exit include Narok West MP Patrick ole Ntutu, Narok North Mp Moitalel ole Kenta, Narok South Mp Korei ole Lemein and Johana Ngeno, Emurua Dikirr MP

The WORSE, GOOD AND BAD SIDE OF NAROK PROTEST

In recent days, we have witnessed angry crowds in Narok and in accross the country trying to redress grievances against their government. Although these events have occurred on different sides of the globe and in different cultures, the participants have chosen the same method of expressing their displeasure: political protesting. However, political protesting is a two- edged sword that can be both the blessing and the bane of a free society.

On the blessing side, Narok can be grateful that the First devolved government guarantees our right to protest. "County shall make no law ... abridging ... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." As with all other freedoms and rights, however, certain responsibilities are firmly attached.

For example, a good and effective protest follows protocol and the rules of common courtesy and decency. Specifically, it is orderly and observes all laws. It sticks to the issues and does not degenerate into name-calling or character assassination.

It respects personal and public property and does not infringe upon the legal rights of others. One of the best modern examples of a good protest is the massive civil rights March on Washington in 1963 led by Dr. King. Because of its dignity and decorum, this event has become the consummate example of a proper protest.

A bad protest, on the other hand, is easily recognizable. It intentionally damages public property, like breaking windows or burning buildings. It purposely interferes with the legal rights of other people, like trying to prevent them from entering buildings. And, most unacceptably, a bad protest injures or kills other human beings. All of these actions are the hallmarks of a riot, not of a protest. A riot is not a proper protest, and purposely causing damage, disorder, and death
does not really right any wrongs.

It was precisely because of such "bad protests" that I decided to become a observant. The media, of course, had been bombarding the public with stories and graphic pictures of student protesters taking over college campuses,people incited to be on roads to demonstrate what is alledge poor governance in narok county.

Looking at all this chaos and turmoil, I thought to myself, "This is anarchy! They're taking legitimate protest much too far. This has become mob rule with random violence and destructive lawlessness." I was (and still am) the kind of
person who prefers an orderly way of doing things.

Another important aspect of protesting is how we react to it. Sometimes people automatically sympathize with the protesters and take their "side." However, just because a group protests something does not mean that it is right. Rather, here is a sensible sequence one should follow before making up one's mind:

1. First and most importantly, learn both sides of the issue. Aren't there still two sides to every story? The "other side" might have some valid points also. How true the line is from the Buffalo Springfield song: "Nobody's right if everybody's
wrong!"
2. Consider the principles at stake. Are there any life-or-death issues involved? Do any moral questions come into play?
3. Examine your own concepts of right and wrong. What do you personally value? How does this conflict affect your own ethics?
4. Which side will bring the most good to the most people?
5. Decide intelligently for one side or the other.

By guaranteeing our right to protest, Kenya has provided us with a valuable tool to improve our lives and our society. May we always be grateful for this right and protect it, but may we also always seek to protest peacefully, legally, and effectively.

IS IT LEADERSHIP OR DEMONSTRATION.. NAROK FOCUS ON DEVELOPMENT

A Shift in Focus make leaders FAIL
This shift can occur in several ways. Often, leaders simply lose sight of what's important. The laser-like focus that catapulted them to the top disappears, and they become distracted by the trappings of leadership, such as wealth and notoriety. Leaders are usually distinguished by their ability to "think big."

But when their focus shifts, they suddenly start thinking small. They micro manage, they get caught up in details better left to others, they become consumed with the trivial and unimportant. And to make matters worse, this tendency can be exacerbated by an inclination toward perfectionism.
A more subtle leadership derailer is an obsession with "doing" rather than "becoming." The good work of leadership is usually a result of who the leader is. What the leader does then flows naturally from inner vision and character. It is
possible for a leader to become too action oriented and, in theNprocess, lose touch with the more important development of self.

What is your primary focus right now? If you can't write it on the back of your business card, then it's a sure bet that your leadership is suffering from a lack of clarity. Take the time necessary to get your focus back on what's important.
Further, would you describe your thinking as expansive or contractive? Of course, you always should be willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, but try never to take on what others can do as well as you. In short, make sure that
your focus is on leading rather than doing.

As others wait for govt laptops, pupils in Transmara are using e-books

As most pupils in primary schools eagerly await the fulfilment of the government’s promise of delivering laptops, others in a school in Transmara, Narok County are way ahead.

Pupils at Kakenya Centre for Excellence in Transmara West have already moved into the ‘digital world’ without having to necessarily wait for President Kenyatta to implement this promise.

Despite the fact that the school is located in one of the remotest parts of the country, its pupils are already using digital tablets, known as E-readers as
their textbooks.

An e-reader, also called an e-book reader or e-book device, is a mobile electronic device designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital e-books or periodicals. It is a mobile library that can store up to 1500 books.

The digital books have come as a blessing to the pupils most of whom are from the Maa community, which has been slow in embracing modern ways of
living.
"We are a pastoral community, all we know is our cattle. Our children will get a chance to live a life we did not live,' says Rose Saleo, a resident of Enoosaen.
She hopes that the new development will bring about positive changes to the community that still holds its traditions very dear.

"We are in full support of the programme. We want our children to be masters in ICT. “They will compete with the rest of the world," adds Ms Saleo.
The school’s director Dr Kakenya Ntaiya says time has come for Kenyans to adopt modern technology and it is in that spirit that her school partnered with Worldreader, an international NGO, to introduce e-reader programs for the more than 150pupils in the school.
Dr Kakenya says the e-reader tablet is effective as it retains power for up to three weeks and hence it is efficient in areas that have electricity challenges. Pupils in the school no longer depend on books published on paper.

"We have long depended on textbooks for learning in our schools but the world is changing as everything is being digitised. "Therefore, our children have to catch up with the rest of the world," says Dr Kakenya.

She encouraged other schools across the country to embrace the programme saying the e-reader will boost performance in the school as more pupils will be enlightened on matters of technology that are key for developing countries.
"After realising that we didn’t have enough, and at times relevant up-to-date books, we approached Worldreader who accepted to partner with us so that our girls get the best,” said Dr Kakenya. She added that the programme will promote a reading culture that most pupils lack.

Dr Kakenya said they have also partnered with the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) which ensures the textbooks in the e-readers are those recommended by the Education Ministry.

"Among the many textbooks and storybooks in the programme are those recommended by KICD hence we are assured our children are getting the right
material. She said it is a relief for parents, teachers and the pupils themselves who no longer need to worry of loss of books or inadequacy.

The pupils, she adds, have also been saved the burden of carrying heavy luggage of books every day when going to and from school. Dr Kakenya adds that the programme will save girls from early marriages as it will encourage them to
remain in school.

"Our girls will be motivated to complete their education and hence avoid early marriages and pregnancies," she adds.

Retrogressive culture like early marriage has been mentioned as a key hindrance to girls’ education in the community. East Africa Worldreader publishing associate Muthoni Muhunyo said the programme will promote literacy by making digital books available to everybody.

Ms Muhunyo said by September 2013, Worldreader had put over 700,000 e-books into the hands of over 12,000 children in nine African countries.

WE HAVE RAISED DOCTORS SALARIES IN NAROK COUNTY ~ Governor Tunai

The County government of narok has raised salaries for doctors who are working in county referral hospital. The county government has taken steps to retain doctors who are moving from public to private hospitals.

Governor Samuel Tunai said the pay raise would also boost the staff’s morale and improve service delivery at public health institutions. Mr Tunai said specialist doctors were still unavailable because the public service offers less pay compared with the private sector.

“The doctors were at first opposed to being devolved. As a county, we have maintained the salaries and benefits they used to get from the national government. We will continue doing our best to retain them,” said Mr Tunai.
He spoke during a tour of the Narok County Referral Hospital.

Doctors in the private sector earn a gross monthly salary of between Sh120,000 and Sh150,000. Their counterparts at public hospitals in the county will now receive Sh110,000 (Job GroupL) and Sh136,000 (Job Group M). Senior doctors
in Job Group N will earn Sh155,000.

Mr Tunai said health services in the county had improved after his government employed more than 240 health workers, hired 11 ambulances from the Kenya Red Cross Society and opened

He said he had entered into a partnership with the national government to provide health equipment, adding that some donors, including the Kenya Commercial Bank, would donate dialysis machines.

The Health Ministry announced that it would equip 94 hospitals, two in each county, with cancer equipment to ensure that patients who need them are attended to.

A total of 245 dialysis machines are set to be installed at county hospitals at a cost of Sh2.2 billion. The move by the ministry will see cancer patients get free treatment once the equipment is in place.

Governor Tunai Paid a courtesy call to Narok Refferal Hospital

Narok County Governor Samuel Tunai on 2nd April toured the Narok referral
hospital to check the state of the hospital and its operations. On his officvial visit, he promised to engage the relevant departments in his government to procure more facilities to improve service delivery.

This is in an effort to fulfil his promise to the electorate of world class health care, affordable to all. Whilst in the tour that was viewed by many as a success, he went on to give a stern warning to employees of the county in the health department to pull up their socks and serve the citizens.

Governor has however applauded the selfless effort of the medical personnel in the refferal hospital within our county and wished the siucvk people quick recovery while on his tour to the hosipital.

He promised that his government has committed good amount of money the ensure drugs and medicine are bought in advance and salaries to the health work errs are addressed in time.

He said his government has lately signed service delivery with executive committees and chief officers to ensure service delivery is apprehended in all county sectors.
