farting politicians, media and fish!!!

The burgers had nothing to fret about this weekend!!
it was that uneventful (politically that is..) that Kombo actually made the headlines in
the major news networks...dude was opening an office in thika. that! my friend, will be a tough sell, good luck to him.
Raila and co. retreated to their hideouts and cocoons ati....
"to serve my constituents" ... uwongo mtupu!!

On friday though, ODM came out in force to condemn KIBs on his supposed approval of NARC-K. Whatever this bunch smokes must be quite potent! I mean, what business does ODM have in NARC affairs? they bailed out, remember?
Raila even had the audacity to compare his 90's shenanigans to this.

My understanding is, KIBS has simply given his nod to the formation of the party NARK-K.
he has not in any way defected!
The odm burgers as if on cue, were asking, nay! demanding from Kibaki ati "to do the moral thing and quit!!"...yani there is no situation , rather anything that kibs does, that to this bunch, warrants his resignation!!
i bet akishuta, they will call for a snap poll!!!!
KIBS like any citizen has a right to express himself.

Ofcourse they do know that huko mashambani, the electorate is bound to get confused and shud there be voter apathy, they could actually vote back NARC. MOi used this trick to entrench his rule.
kibaki strategists are surely on overdrive! that fella mutahi ngunyi is a clever one!!

Have you noticed how all the hullabaloo on a myriad of issues, scandals and other whatnots has died down??
surely kenyans, are we these gullible??
do we suffer from short-term memory loss??
what happened to the githongo issue?
what happened to the standard raid issue?
what about goldenberg, land issues??
i could go on and on.....
Kibs stategists have surely mastered the art of deception (that dude...mutahi ngunyi.)
By saddling our thoughts with so many issues at once, they know that in as much as we vent our anger, itwill not be on a single issue which could potentially spill over.They have now saddled the public with allegations of improper conduct against the governor of cbk.. poor dude!
Yenyewe there are no sacred cows in kibs admin - (except mama winnie mwai and karoocy!!!)

Down at the coast, kijana balaa (yea him, balala) is trying to actualise his dream( or is it a nightmare!!) of inheriting the "king of coast" mantle!!
Will somebody please tell balaa that despite buying (what else?) a kaya eldership, he will never
africanise his roots! Dont get me wrong, am not tribal, but there are sections of our society
that will neva see the inside of a state house bed!!
asians, arabs, somalis etc, come to mind. These communities have insignificant numbers that
cannot and will neva alter our political landscape.
I have always maintained that our politics is based majorly on tribe!!
No need to burry our heads in the sand and pretend ati kesho we could elect a prezzo from any of the above communities.
haidhuru, just as i wished kombo all the best in his latest foray into central, so do i to kijana balaa!!
hmmmm...think of it prezzo balala!!! not in a a million years!!
he is as unelectable as ruto!! ruto's fault is his past. Nevertheless, ruto has numbers .

The media, not to be left behind , suddenly found a sticking point.
last friday, NMG through the DN published a report on the leading websites in east africa.
top on the list was ofcourse nationmedia.com. The SMG not to be outdone, published on sunday its own survey quoting some unknown organisation. top on the list(actually they had none!!) was eastandard.net. This is ofcourse a case of sour grapes!!
you see, the nation survey was conducted by a "third party with worldwide credibilty". It authored supposedly by a ugandan...uwongo mtupu!!
The standard , used two of its reporters to write some piece on how superior their site is! ati they use sijui "mirrored servers"..who gives a damn!!

lakini yenyewe ya'll know which one is tops!!!! this one!! ha!!

Hapo yenyewe standard cried like a kiddo whose "patco" has been stolen!! i wonder why they did not publish the whole top 20 sites as per their "indepth and accurate" research. ofcourse it would be the same as nation, only that their site would be tops!!
Being in compe, SMG knows it must always strive to match the monster that NMG is.
Recently, NMG announced its annual returns. SMG had released earlier.
On comparison, a glaring gap is evident between the two. More like a david vs GOLIATH affair, so to speak.
NMG managed to break into the BILLION shilling profit club!! (quite a feat considering the economic scenario.)
As for SMG, well lets say they are trying their best. They did have a dip in their profitability. (why else, they rattled a snake!!) The expected break into "hundred MILLION" profits bracket did not materialise...they should probably blame KIBS...

The Nation had its demons to exorcise!!! in the report, they could not stomach the idea that capitalfm is the most listened to station online!!!
their pretext....-ati since easyfm(formerly nationfam) is hosted on the nationmedia site, it is ngumu to determine the leader in this field!!!
mshidwe nyote!! capitalfm is indeed the most listened station on the web (for eastafrica ..that is) . Infact when one visits the radio link on nationmedia.com, one gets a blank page informing you that it's under construction! its been like this for ages!! they have neva managed to go online. it is an easy job (how ironic!!) for a company with vast resources like NMG!!!

A curious website that made the list was kikuyu.com. i bet this made jangs go gaga!!!! what happened brothers? such an undertaking is expected from jangs who i think possess the best ICT brains in Kenya!!
It was surprising. its worth noting that kiuks are ahead in most fields. hate it or like it!! !! its simply the cold truth, not a stereotype!!
Nevertheless, this does point to the fact that tribal sentiments indeed run deep in kenya.
have a good one!!
