Good thoughts and Timely Decisions

Our lifetime is short and limited, but the ideas, actions and thoughts we produce can easily remain unlimited.

First lady Sara Tunai lays plans to fight Gender based violence

Narok county first lady has laid tremendous plans to eradicate gender based violence in narok county. The case of early marriages, FGM and school drop oou will soon be forgotten vice in narok.

Gender-based violence is a human rights violation, a public health challenge, and a barrier to civic, social, political, and economic participation.

The vice undermines not only the safety, dignity, overall health
status, and human rights of the millions of individuals who experience it, but also the public health, economic stability, and security of nations.

Gender-based violence cuts across ethnicity, race, class, religion, education level, and international borders. An estimated one in three women worldwide has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused in her lifetime.

Although statistics on the prevalence of violence vary, the scale is tremendous, the scope is
vast, and the consequences for individuals, families, communities, and countries are devastating.

It is vital to promote the rights of all individuals and reduce gender-based violence while mitigating its harmful effects on individuals and communities.

Unless women, girls, men, and boys fully enjoy their human rights and are free from violence, progress toward development will fall short.

Through the First lady initiative Narok county will partner with Various non-governmental organizations, faith-based organizations, and host government institutions to:
Increase awareness of the scope of the problem and its impact
Improve services for survivors of violence Strengthen prevention efforts.

KETER SET TO IMPEACH ANOTHER CABINET SECRETARY.

Nandi Hills Member of Parliament (MP), Alfred Keter, has vowed to crack the whip on yet another Cabinet Secretary (CS) before January 2016, in his continued fight against corruption.

The vocal MP stated that he was not yet done and had a long list of more Government officials who should leave office for laziness or corruption scandals.

“Before January, I am set to go with another individual. I know that almost 70 per cent of this Cabinet are corrupt. Those who are too lazy should again resign for people who are active,” he said.

He further reiterated the need to have a clean working environment which would allow the country's economy to compete with other nations. Keter's relentless efforts to have Devolution CS Anne Waiguru impeached seemed to have borne fruit, after Waiguru resigned from office on Saturday afternoon citing poor health due to numerous attacks from various quarters.

Waiguru stated that she made the decision following her doctor's advice and had asked President Uhuru Kenyatta to accord her lighter duties which she could cope with.

Keter had previously submitted two motions to the National Assembly to have Waiguru sacked. However, none of the motions saw the light of day as they were dismissed by House Speaker, Justin Muturi for failing to meet required threshold.

Call for Election Kenya is in crisis; Mudavadi tells Uhuru

Amani National Congress (ANC) party leader Musalia Mudavadi has asked President Uhuru Kenyatta to step aside and call for elections to pave way for capable leaders to stabilise the country.

Mudavadi said the economy was now driven through “habitual management by default” and there is widespread corruption driven by unaccountable officers.

“I am telling the inept government of Kenya: You can fool some people most of the time, but you can’t lie to everybody all the time. The least you can do is admit you don’t know what you’re doing and pave way for those capable,” he said.

The ANC leader made the remarks yesterday when he addressed the Annual General Meeting of Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET), Vihiga branch at Friends College Kaimosi.

The former Deputy Prime Minister said the government was facing a serious disconnect between its fiscal and monetary policies leading to cash flow problems and allowing President Kenyatta to finish his term would be throwing the country into greater confusion.

Mudavadi said the Eurobond saga was an exercise in contempt of public accountability.

“When the economy is tipping; there is a cash crunch and government cannot raise salaries; interest rates and inflation is high; people are losing savings at the stock exchange and cannot repay loans; when the cost of living has sky-rocketed, then something is wrong,” said Mudavadi.

He added, “And when government cannot account for what it did with the Eurobond money, the same government has the audacity and nerve to shamelessly take us for fools.

It then mocks us that all is well; ‘we spent the money to spur the economy, reduce inflation and cost of borrowing; so pay more taxes on juice’.” Mudavadi said he steered the country through the tumultuous 1990s when it had been made a pariah as a result of Goldenberg looting. “I got us moving again from the doldrums through major economic reforms. It is clear the infectious ‘bug’ is biting us all over again. As teachers, parents and Kenyans, you have two choices to make come 2017:

You can choose my team to restore sanity and give Kenyans a decent life because I know what to do or choose an incompetent Jubilee or a decaying CORD,” he said. He said the appetite to consume by the government without investing in production is a major contribution to the failing economy and called for suspension of some development projects. Mudavadi asked teachers to use their numbers to influence major decisions in the country by electing better leaders.

Teachers hold a special place in society. They are not just the income elite and investors that underpin the local economy, but more so the moral fibre and development voice in society. In their hands, the destiny of our country is moulded,” he said.

He said the symbiotic relationship between teachers, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) and the government has not worked in the recent past, forcing them to resort to industrial action.

“In this confrontation, matters of quality education have taken a back seat. The government finds it difficult to ask the teacher why education performance is failing without blaming the teacher for what is wrong,” he said.

The ANC leader asked the government to obey the court order and increase teachers pay. “The issue of TSC refusing to remit union dues under the pretext that it’s doing a payroll audit would be laughable if it were not tragic. If TSC isn’t lying, why not pay the dues and deduct any over payment to unions in later remittances?” he posed.

He said Government’s disregard for court orders was brazen autocracy that a democratic country cannot afford.

Mudavadi noted that the education sector was in a shambles, from Early Childhood Development to university, where systems have broken down, yet the government, instead of addressing the meltdown, has chosen the easy road of window dressing.

“Through attempts at damage control, impunity has driven the government to break every law and thrown management of education into disrepute. The result is that education policies are being made on a daily basis at the whim of individuals,” he said.

Mudavadi said the problems in the education sector and the Kenya National Examination Council’s (Knec) denial of exam leakage amounts to a government that is sabotaging human resources development.

“It is destroying a generation, discrediting the legitimacy and credibility of education and its certification among Kenyans and abroad and reducing Kenyans’ competitiveness in accessing employment. Given the massive leakage reported this year, I request Members of Parliament to urgently amend the Knec law to make the council accountable to Kenyans rather than to the Education Cabinet Secretary,” he said.

US REPUBLICAN'S DONALD TRUMP INSULTS AFRICANS AGAIN

United States’ Presidential candidate in the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump has once again vented his disgust for Africans by referring to them as lazy fools only good at eating, lovemaking and thuggery.

The Business magnate, who is also the republican Presidential torch bearer promised to deport all Kenya origin, Africans including president Barrack Obama as he illuminated how he plans to reconstruct America and restore its lost glory.

Trump spoke bitterly as he said: “African Americans are very lazy. The best they can do is gallivanting around ghettoes, lamenting how they are discriminated. These are the people America doesn’t need. They are the enemies of progress.

Look at African countries like Kenya for instance, those people are stealing from their own government and go to invest the money in foreign countries. From the government to opposition, they only qualify to be used as a case study whenever bad examples are required. How do you trust even those who have ran away to hide here at the United States hiding behind education? I hear they abuse me in their blogs but I don’t care because even the internet they are using is ours and we can decide to switch it off from this side. These are people who import everything including matchsticks.

In my opinion, most of these African countries ought to be recolonized again for another 100 years because they know nothing about leadership and self governance.” “I promise to make America great again by restoring our dignity that we have since lost through Obama. The more reason why I still believe that he, and his Kenyan brothers and sisters should be deported back to Kenya to make America safe.”
