Apart from being one of the longest-serving African heads of states, President Robert Mugabe is known for his witty and sometimes foolish quotes.

1. Any man who successfully convinces a monkey that honey is sweeter than banana, is capable of selling condoms to a Roman father.

7. It’s hard to bewitch African girls these days. Every time you take a piece from her hair to the witch doctor, either a Brazilian innocent woman gets mad or a factory in China catches fire.
8. All I hear always is, ‘No sex before marriage?’ If that was God’s plan, then you would receive your penis or vagina on your wedding day.
9. The only warning Africans take serious is LOW BATTERY.
10. Men sucking lady’s breast is normal because the act was learnt in childhood when they were young but the act of lady’s sucking men’s d*ck is what baffles me. Where did they learn it from?
11. Whenever things seem to start going well in your life, the Devil comes along and gives you a ‘girlfriend’.

16. Respect pregnant women because it’s not easy walking around with evidence that you’ve had sex.
17. Some of the girls of today can’t even jog for five minutes but they expect a guy to last in bed with you for two hours? Your level of selfishness demands a one-week crusade.
18. I stopped trusting ladies when my class three girlfriend left me for another boy all because he bought a sharpener with a mirror.
19. Nothing makes a woman more confused than being in a relationship with a “broke” man who’s extremely good in bed.
20. Witchcraft is when a 24-year-old girl who cannot jog for five minutes expects a 40-year-old man to last for one hour in bed.

29. Treat every part of your towel nicely because the part that wipes your buttocks today will wipe your face tomorrow.
30. We are living in a generation where people “in love” are free to touch each others’ private parts but cannot touch each others’ phones because they’re “private”.
31. Sometimes you look back at girls you spent money on rather than send it to your mum and you realise witchcraft is real.
32. If President Barack Obama wants me to allow marriage for same-sex couples in my country(Zimbabwe), he must come here so that I marry him first.
33. South Africans will kick down a statue of a dead white man but won’t even attempt to slap a live one. Yet they can stone to death a black man simply because he’s a foreigner.
34. What is the problem? We now have aeroplanes which can take them back quicker than the ships used by their ancestors.
35. Mr Bush, Mr Blair and now Mr Brown’s sense of human rights precludes our people’s right to their God-given resources, which in their view must be controlled by their kith and kin. I am termed dictator because I have rejected this supremacist view and frustrated the neocolonialists.
36. Cigarette is a pinch of tobacco rolled in a piece of paper with fire on one end and a fool on the other end.
37. A brave man is he who has a running stomach and still wants to flatulate.
38. Journalist: Sir, don’t you think 89 years would be a great time to retire as a President? Mugabe: Have you ever asked the Queen this question or is it just for African leaders?
39. Interviewer: Mr President, when are you bidding the people of Zimbabwe farewell? Robert: Where are they going?
40. My dear ladies, please don’t buy a selfie stick when your armpit itself needs a shaving stick.

Kakamega residents oppose Gov. Oparanya

Residents of Kakamega have opposed plans by the county government to fund funeral expenses for the late Soita Shitanda . Led by Dennis Weche, Musa Ekaya, and Ibrahim Muchelule, they argue that it is illegal and illogical to use tax payers' money to foot funeral expenses of the former minister. While consoling Shitanda's family, Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya said his government will cater for medical and funeral expenses to give the late politician a decent send-off.

Road works in narok town, Silencing Governor Tunai Critics.

Like as he promised during the launch of #TejoOlami, the dream and Governor Tunai's mission to tarmack narok town 40km road is coming to pass.

With the surbubs of narok town the Road work, construction of calveats and road gravelling has been the order of the day with presence of heavy machines, caterpillars and lorries with specialised manpower manning several roads in narok town.

This among other key projects are the one giving Governor Tunai critics a hard time to showcase their abilities in questioning county government.

The critics have been riding on a narative that roads will remain the same, and floods will be the order, the hypothesis has however been proven futile and the mere allegations didn't stand the test of time.

Government bans prayer days and Visiting day in schools

There will be no more visiting days in boarding schools in third term, Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i has said.

Prayer days and mid terms have also been abolished.

Dr Matiang'i said on Wednesday that the move is aimed at curbing cheating in KCPE and KCSE examinations.

Over 5,000 2015 KCSE results were canceled over malpractices.

Prior and during the exams, exam questions circulated on social media, a phenomenon that raised concern among Education stakeholders and Kenyans over the credibility of the national exams.

In March 2016, Kenya National Examination Council (Knec) board was disbanded by Dr Matiang'i over widespread exam malpractices.

Former University of Nairobi Vice-Chancellor Prof George Magoha was appointed as the new chairman of the board.

He replaced Prof Kabiru Kinyanjui, who was sacked. The government also ordered the arrest of the council’s chief executive officer Joseph Kivilu and eight other senior officer over examination irregularities.

Anti-IEBC Demonstration to continue untill Jubilee agree to Dialogue- Says Raila

By Raila Odinga

MEETING WITH THE CLERGY: ANTI-IEBC DEMOS TO CONTINUE UNTIL A PUBLIC COMMITMENT BY JUBILEE TO DIALOGUE

FOUNDATION

The basis of all our action is premised on the very first article  of our constitution which states, “All sovereign power belongs to the people of Kenya and shall be exercised only in accordance with this Constitution”.

The constitution then, after first declaring that the people can exercise this sovereignty directly, donates that sovereignty to “democratically elected representatives” by saying that the people could also exercise their sovereignty through them.

To emphasize to these representatives that they are only agents of the people, the constitution proceeds to tell each and every institution what its work is, how it must be carried out and the principles that must guide that institution when it carries out its work.

BACKGROUND

1. PARLIAMENTARY ROUTE

A common misconception currently prevailing in certain sections of society is that once people set up institutions, they lose all power over any issues that are meant to be resolved by those institutions.

Yet modern progressive constitutions are very clear that the people are the ultimate authority over any institution set up in the constitution.

Unfortunately, under the Jubilee Administration, this trust bestowed upon institutions has been betrayed many times over. Very little regard is given to our national values and principles when institutions are exercising the sovereignty donated to them by the people. Parliament has been particularly notorious. Using its majority in the Houses, the Jubilee administration has used Parliament to pass laws and motions that compromise the interests of the people on whose behalf Parliament exercises the legislative authority of the Republic.

This is how the National Assembly came to dismiss a petition that was filed against the commissioners of the IEBC for mismanagement and corruption.

The petition, filed by Mr Wafula Buke mid-2014, laid out various charges against the commissioners, which alleged that they had failed in their work and that they had been corrupt. Mr. Buke’s petition was buried in accusations that he had been sent by CORD to fight the commissioners and in the end he was never accorded serious consideration. Jubilee marshaled its numbers in the House and threw out the petition. The contents of Mr Buke’s petition never made it to the platform of national debate.

There is now before the National Assembly a report of the Public Accounts Committee that has found chairman Isaack Hassan, commissioners Thomas Letangule and Mohamed Alawi guilty of interfering with the procurement of these devices.

The committee also wants full investigations launched against Hassan, the Commission’s CEO Ezra Chiloba and the eight commissioners for the loss of KSh4 billion of taxpayers’ money.

But like it did with the Buke petition, Parliament is again likely to betray the people and decide the fate of the report based on the political interests of Jubilee.

2. THE ETHICS AND ANTIC-CORRUPTION ROUTE

Parliament is not the only forum in which the people are being betrayed by institutions to whom they have donated their sovereignty. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission has obstinately refused to charge Hassan and his co-commissioners who participated in ChickenGate with corruption, despite the fact the existing evidence has successfully prosecuted the bribe-givers in a London court.

Is it to mean then that the people are helpless? Is it conceivable that the people who empowered the institutions to work for them have now to sit helplessly and watch as these institutions betray them? Could the servants have now become more important than the masters?

3. POPULAR REFORM

As a Coalition, we thereafter made the resolution to pursue electoral  reform through popular initiative, an effort we dubbed ‘Okoa Kenya.’ We constituted a Committee of Experts comprising of some of the best legal minds in the country that drafted Okoa Kenya Constitution Amendment Bill. We collected a total of 1.6 million signatures on the backdrop of this bill. This was 600,000 above the constitutional threshold. These signatures were duly submitted for verification as registered voters as provided for in the law.

It is important to note that the IEBC as a commission was subject of the proposed bill. The Commission then sat on the collected signatures beyond the ninety day period provided for in law until agitation on our part prompted their action. They began verification after the ninety day period. Prior to the announcement of the outcome of the process, several key Jubilee officials including National Assembly Majority Leader Hon. Aden Duale and TNA Chairman Hon. Johnson Sakaja came out publicly to claim that the signatures submitted were fake. These legislators even went as far as giving the break-down of the numbers. The IEBC later came out and confirmed the position put forward by Jubilee dismissing 1.6 million signatures on what can best be described as flimsy grounds. The route of popular initiative was effectively scuttled by the IEBC under dubious circumstances. Kenyans were left wondering how Jubilee knew details of the Commission’s resolution before the Commission made public its findings.

PEACEFUL PICKETING

Our constitution foresaw such possibilities and provided the now-greatly-talked-about rights under Articles 37.

Under Article 37, every Kenyan is given a right to assemble, demonstrate, picket and present petitions to public authorities.

The purpose of this right is so that the people can communicate to the institution involved their feelings about the actions and decisions of that institution. They are able to communicate what they expect from the institution and also demonstrate the levels of their emotions about the failures of the institution.

And that is why we are leading Kenyans in peaceful picketing. We intend to use this constitutional route to tell the commissioners of the IEBC that they must resign as they have failed in their duty and the public has no faith whatsoever in their ability to be impartial in a political contest in which we are contestants.

Our peaceful picketing is meant to further communicate to Parliament that the issue of the IEBC commissioners cannot be decided on a partisan basis to achieve selfish political objectives.

Moreover, our peaceful picketing is meant to communicate to the Jubilee Administration that it cannot protect the commissioners of the IEBC from the law and from a moral and conscientious duty to resign and expect that Cord will foolishly accept to participate in another election conducted by them.

Ultimately,  we are leading peaceful pickets to tell all Kenyans that they must not sit back and watch their sovereignty abused and their aspirations betrayed by an irresponsible and unaccountable regime. That is why we are returning to the streets on Monday. We are confident that the constitution is on our side as we demonstrate and we will remain defiant and undeterred by the violent reactions of the police towards us.
