MAD-A-RAK DAY...........patriotism growth rate= 5.8%


Followinng the magnificent(?) economic growth of a splendid 5.8%, the "owners of kenya" are singing and dancing in jubilation at the "good times"
The top cream of society who number slightly under 10% control 80% of the country wealth in all economic terms. The control 80% of real gdp, fake gdp, ghost gdp, national income etc...and all that shit we used to learn in those boring econ lectures at campo. the lecturer a very myopic kisii actually confessed to not understanding whatever crap he spewed out of his mouth.

Anyway, this mad-a-rak day, am constrained to admit that the patriotism levels for the kawaida kenyan are at par with the economic growth level - 5.8%!!!!!
Where does this growth rate grow anyway???
why doesn't it trickle down to the common(sic) jamaa ya mtaa?

the top 10% cant seem to understand the bottom 90%'s surprised surprise (remember JJ?).
for them, their wealth has indeed multipled by a factor of 5.8 !!! and not 5.8%
shit!!!!!!
they can even afford to carry liquid millions in cheap bags!!
yani pesa zao ni mob hata pesa-point and indeed all ATMs cannot accomodate their
liquid cash needs....
They will then hug when they realise their errors and feign some fake excuse for carrying such auda-fuckingly-cious amounts of cash!!!
Had it been a common( define common anyway??) jamaa ya mtaa who had stumbled on the
bag, the weziwamiwa would no doubt have lynched him!!!

elsewhere the buffoons trumpeting the utopia growth rate are smiling all the way to the bank.
The will definitely plot to lie again next year.
shidwe hii pepo mbaya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my fucking income has actually deflated..what with the inflation rate at 12 fucking percent!!!
halafu the baboon are busy trumpeting real growth!
iko wapi??

therefore this mad-a-rak day, go grab a beer and down 5.8% of it....
the rest wachia barman for it doesnt belong to you. the top 10% will sue you for drinking whats not yours!!!

ODM..the lies and intrigues


so raila reckons moi is his political contemporary!
Not one to be cowed easily, Moi told off raila by calling him a rumour monger..
"This country has experts in rumour mongering.
When did I meet him and where did the meeting take place?
I have not met President Kibaki," he said.

Moi’s remarks were in reaction to Raila’s allegations that he had met President Kibaki two weeks
ago and agreed to work for Kibaki in exchange for his security.

Raila accused President Kibaki of secretly engineering troubles in the Orange Democratic Movement assisted by Moi.
He said the former President was misleading Kanu chairman Uhuru Kenyatta.
Uhuru last week declared that Kanu would go it alone in the by-elections
and the 2007 general elections.
Last week, Raila told Moi to keep off politics, particularly ODM matters, as he had retired.
He then rambled on how the retired president is acting in cahoots with the current president
to scuttle ODM! What a lose mouth???
Moi also said that he would not be stopped from commenting on Kanu matters
since he is a life member.
I have always maintained that raila is simply power-hungry!!
His schemes and counter-schemes were bound to fail. Show the guy a different script, and he is
bound to react and fight you!!
listen to him quipping...
"Politics is a matter of scheming and retreating. We are ready to counter any scheme formed against the movement," he said.
what a sore loser!!!
Uhuru is suddenly being demonised for going against the "raila script"
Ultimately, ODM was bound to fail. No amount of political intrigues will save this paper tiger.

Ruto in his stupid element decided to go against his boss.
He cant be blamed for falling prey to raila's schemes. In any case, Ruto's presidential bid will come a cropper
for he is a non-starter! Raila might have though himself rather clever by hitting out at Mr Moi
and telling him to stop interfering in politics and be content with retirement.
This is the same Mr Odinga who is relying on Mr Ruto to deliver for him what was the Moi vote?
That might well turn to to be a fatal miscalculation.


Kalonzo Musyoka chose to play it safe in the unfolding saga.
The dude is still in dreamland what with the steadman polls rating him highly!
He is calling for dialogue with the retired president. For once his so called foundation

actually supplied relief food to some famine-stricken region.
But we all know that his is but a campaign gimmick.

In short is raila is but a liar and a user!!
Uhuru knows this, so does moi and indeed the country at large.

UHURU & MOI and the demise of ODM...


Just who would have expected uhuru to pull the rug beneath ODM's feet???
well, I for one expected ODM to sambaratika. I have always maintained that ODM is just
but a paper tiger and moreso a tribal conglomeration.
Uhuru knew when to cut his losses and bolt. You see, Raila in his never-ending schemes,
counter-schemes, mipangos, porojos and other whatnots, had mooted a plot to upstage uhuru
from KANU's helm. His trojan horse??? you guessed it......RUTO!!!

He did forget one historical injustice which KANU has never forgotten - 2002.
Moi has never forgiven Raila for the humiliation visited upon KANU by NARC in 2002.
Granted, kanu and ldp did form a formidable outfit during the referendum, or did they?
MOi has always been lukewarm to the idea of another Kanu/ldp marriage.
His reservation this time round was grounded on the fact that kanu appeared to be the junior partner in ODM. More like a case of the hunter being hunted. Put otherwise, kanu was destined to be the bride!!!
Kanu has a gargantuam(?) ego. Moi could simply not stomach a scenario where kanu (or rather him) would not be calling the shots!!
Raila knew this and since he has a few scores to settle with Moi, he proceeded with his machinations.

U
huru meanwhile could not entertain a situation whereby his sec.gen - ruto, was being touted as a possible presidential contender hence at par with him politically!!
Poor ruto....he is just but a pawn in this complex upuzi!!!
Raila served ruto a dish of deceit. he offered him goodies beyond his ficke imagination.
He may have probably hinted at "RUTO TOSA!!" and just like a kid at the site of candy, ruto fell for it hook line and sinker!!!

As expected, the ldp brigade came out in force (rather forced out!!) to show solidarity.
Kamotho had the audacity to question Moi's mandate. Poor fellas...the boat is sinking!! grab your lifejackets!
or as murungi put it. "you will be devoured by crocodiles!"

Narc-k must be laughing in glee at the unfolding events.
Yenyewe for a new outfit, they sure have made an impact....
going by a recent poll, nark-k is supposedly second only to ldp in popularity.

pardon the digression...

Uhuru did the right thing. Politics is a dirty game where no captives are taken.
Given raila's penchant for stabbing one in the back, its no surprise therefore
that KANU should be wary of him. once bitten ,twice shy. KANU would be stupid
if they were to enter into any sort of pact with raila
( yea, raila = ldp = odm !!)
MOI understands this fully well and methinks he is waiting for his opportunity to
exact su-weeet revenge!!!!
But why is ldp not coming out with their guns balzing???
the answer to that is simply finances!!!!
Raila knows he cannot match KANU's war-chest.

The fact is , LDP needs Kanu more than kanu needs ldp.

LDP is built on euphoria whilst kanu has a solid grassroot network
plus a functioning economic secretariat- something which ldp desires....


UHURU evaluated his options and struck an educated decision.
why be the bride and yet he could be the groom???
Non of the so called ODM luminaries can mobilise even a quarter
of the finances at uhuru's disposal!!
so why play second fiddle in a field of supposed equals???

On this one, MOI and UHURU are right.
ODM is a non-starter. MOI and UHURU know its better to fight it out in their
trusted and time-tested behemoth that is KANU.

ODM ni bure kabisa!!
sample this observation by omar ali (kenya times)..........

The elusive unity of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) is already crumbling much earlier than most people had predicted and or expected. In understanding Kenyan politics, this division was bound to happen for various reasons mainly because of tribal and sectarian leaning politics that exist in the country. Not to be forgotten is the fact that most of the Movement’s luminaries are after personal and or individual leadership powers and prestige. They are not seeking to improve the welfare of Kenyans as they would want unsuspecting Kenyans to believe. They “are do-nothing” politicians, who only excellent when it comes to rhetoric statements and political theatrics. all those who have declared interests to vie for presidency through this group have done nothing other than their presidential ambitions’ declarations. No one has laid down or unveiled their development agenda, platform and or how they intend to go about in implementing them et al. Kalonzo Musyoka has just stated the obvious that ODM is doomed. The reason is not because all of them want to be presidents, but it is because of the power struggle within the group. Four political leaders within the Movement namely Musyoka and Raila Odinga both of Liberal Democratic Party and Uhuru Kenyatta and William Ruto from KANU will not support the other even after a fair nomination exercises within their respective political parties. Here is one political fact, there is no way that Kenyatta and Musyoka would let the other or others to be their presidential candidates in their respective political parties or groupings. And here is why. The Mwingi North MP now strongly believes that he is so popular in the country as result of two different polls conducted by Steadman Group such that he sees himself as the country’s next president. Although, the steady rise of Musyoka poll numbers is best known only to the pollster group because the man has done nothing to warrant such rise in numbers. But one thing is for sure, good looks or no good looks, the Mwingi lawmaker’s name will be on the presidential election ballot be it through LDP, ODM or any other political outfit. You can take that to the bank. The undisputed Luo leader and LDP strongman the Langa’ta legislator is unlikely to support his Mwingi North counterpart in an event Musyoka wins the LDP nomination contest. People don’t want to say it, but Raila would rather support Musalia Mudavadi should the former VP win the race which he has no chance of winning.
need i say more?????
