  Conducting Choir of Denial: 10 Ways To Survive In Dark Thirsty Hungry Kenya

   » ‎ You Missed This
  Following Martha Karua’s unprecedented move to take the principals head on abroad, Kenyans would benefit a lot by borowing her deadly venom. For starters we need her steely guts to confront the myriad calamities that have taken permanent residence within our borders.
  
  Here are 10 time-tested strategies we can adopt to see us overcome them:
  
  1. Complain bitterly about cost of living to anyone within earshot
  
  2. Harbor deep bitterness and resentment angrily within because of country’s state of affairs
  
  3. Don’t shower or bath-just “splash” necessary area
  
  4. Rising food prices-loose weight freely due to food shortage
  
  5. Read trusted Standard newspaper now only once a week save on shillings
  
  6. Power rationing-can’t watch always trusted KTN
  
  7. Biting drought-drill borehole in backyard due to water shortage
  
  8. Ration phone air-time- use smoke signals to communicate with friends and family
  
  9. Endure nightmare traffic jams while road rage builds slowly due to unruly roads
  
  10. Discover uchumi wa kadogo-enjoy small packets of essentials from neighbouring slums Kumekucha

  Justice for the Judge and Justice for the Unwashed

   » ‎ Kenya Imagine

  I know that there are cases pending before the High Court, which were filed when I was a child. I am now qualified to be appointed a judge of the High Court, meaning that they have wallowed in the registries and diaries and mentions and call-overs and whatnot, long enough for me to actually hear and try them. Dearest Lord. And then Ombija files a suit. And it is over in ten quick months. Ten months.
  
  In such a scenario, it is difficult to ignore the fact that the plaintiff is a judge of the High Court. It is also mightily difficult to resist the suggestion and appearance that perhaps in our beloved Republic, there is justice for the judge, and then there is justice for the unwashed, and that the two are starkly dissimilar propositions.

  
  Eric, on the Ombija lawsuit. He doesn't hold back.

  The Wagalla Massacre: what really happened

   » ‎ Kenya Imagine

  The target community were the Degodia but it is believed a number of Somalis of other extraction were caught up in cases of mistaken identity. The operation targeted male members of the clan above 12 years of age but women were raped, houses were burnt and property was looted in every locality where the operation took place. The men rounded up were subjected to torture in an effort to force them to confess to owning a rifle. Some died of their wounds before they reached Wagalla Airstrip. Those who reached the airstrip were sorted into sub-clans and up to 30 members of Jebrail sub-clan were burnt alive in an orgy of unprecedented violence.

  
  Xudayi, who's published a book on the massacre, gives a brief overview of the events. Harrowing reading (and yet another reason Bethwell Kiplagat should be relieved of his TJRC duties).
