I know it is good manners to type Rest in peace. It is also African.But such are the times i miss the South African opposition icon to put us in our place.
I want this to be a death that painfully reminds me of my troubled childhood in Subukia. When sleeping in the maize plantation was norm for fear of attack. From who?You ask. From a government that facilitated the attack on my parents and our neighbours.A government that facilitated chiefs to drive around to supervise men ,women and children dying from poisonous arrows.As fire gutted down hard work of my family.I cry for my late father.The nights knew no peace neither did day breaks.The silent chats and whispers in class. Sharing how state supported cattle rustling had threatened our childhood.These are bad memoirs.But why did this happen every election cycle?
I speak from bitterness.Am not bitter at any of my neighbours because even they,found themselves in these curse attracting circumstances.
1992,Was a lost year for me and my candidate class.We were IDPs in our own homeland.I was lucky to have my father put me back on track with school.I cry in pain for the many children whose future has carried such a burden.Their education Stopped at primary!
I have forgiven the former president because they preach like that.But i have not forgotten.
I pray that when we get to our maker.I hope to see justice.I pray i see the planners of these acts.God i pray that on that day on the video,i see the financiers. I hope i will lift up my hand and ask a question on behalf of many children whose future these acts condemned. Just one Question.Why did you put us through all that?What price did my parents owe that we defaulted ?
His grace Arch Bishop Ndingi Mwan’ Anzeki will be my witness.
The only man that my father and i desperately waited to hear him speak. On the faint radio volume we could gather.My father would anounce to us that The Bishop had condemned the attacks.This is everything we hoped for.God bless his grace.And may God raise more men and women that will stand fearless before the mighty risking their life and limb just to present the case of the down trodden.
Outsiders Reading this will not understand but i am posting this on my Hommie’s wall because i know to many of you these events are fresh all over again.
We must condemn these types of dictatorships with all our might.Fear not.
But do this for future generations. Afterall there can never be healing without closure.
I have made my case Let Moi Face his maker.

well said, if there any different with the regime of the son of a thief – the election vampire thief with his handshake fallacy. You vampire has been stealing and using public debts to enrich himself , his family of thieves empire with his pussy connected cartels and not pointing them as the downfall of his abyss regime. to the vampire this club of thieves are as clean as abyss and those who don’t share his abyss dreams are fired by his zombies with empty skulls.
You were sleep in the bush due to retaliation created by you militia mungikis kill for force the old made regime done and when the affected stood up to face the mungikis, you slept in the bush or whatever place you slept, under the scheme of the mungiki – now lead by the election vampire thief of the day under his abyss regime with mt Kenyan zombies all over.

It sounds nice to talk well of the dead. But it’s stupidity to get people to believe a lie on the face of the truth. If you was a good god fearing man, he could have done so many things differently. The truth is so many people suffered and even died under his reign and command. The very complaints leading to 1982 coup became the clarion call for multipartism and eventual removal of KANU from power with a lot of bloodshed. The current crop of corrupt leaders in Kenya learnt and internalised the vice under Moi’s reign as they lined up on the roadside singing, clapping and dancing for moi and his troupe of corrupt sycophants serving as the student’s role models. Since the student’s always desire to be better than the teachers, the truth is we have witnessed thieves steal from the public ferociously especially in the reign of Moi’s preferred successor.
Dr. Robert John Ouko, Father Kaisser, Oyugi, Mute, the so many others who died in landclashes, public demonstrations, nyayo torture chambers, schemed road accidents, those forced into exile for mere suspicion some malicious that they opposed Moi’s reign, the lives of children messed up as parents got hounded into prisons and detention, tribalism in employment, lives lost on road accidents due to poor roads and biased infrastructural development, wastage of resources, subjecting people to the personal whims of a dictator and all the sins moi committed can only be forgiven when people ventilated by the affected people. It’s is not disrespect to the dead to point out their sins for one only gets forgiven on admission of their sins
Steven Covey says in his writings START WITH END IN MIND and gives a scenario where you are dead in a coffin but is given a chance to listen to you eulogy and challenges you by the question WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR THEM SAY ABOUT YOU? THAT WHICH YOU WANT TO HEAR SAID ABOUT YOU WHEN YOU CAN CHANGE NOTHING LYING DEAD, DO IT NOW BEFORE YOU DIE. LIVE WITH THE END IN MIND. ITS THE REASON MSANDO’S KILLERS EVEN THOUGH NOT KNOWN TO THE PUBLIC AND I HAVEN’T KNOWN PEACE EVEN AFTER CORRUPTING THE ELECTIONS.

WHAT IF THERE NO LIFE AFTER DEATH? The killers and looters seem not to care when they damage humanity and reduce them to their OBEDIENT BEINGS with poverty?
The reduced humans are rendered physically and psychologically incapable of fighting back! They are neutered with fear! The elites who inflict pain and torture never offer apologies to their victims. They arrogantly believe that giving an apology to their victims is a sign of weakness!
Could it be that their GOD, just like their wealthy lifestyles, are different from the God of the poor and the powerless???
PROSPERITY THEOLOGY brought to Africans by the Europeans was meant to make Africans poor and subjugated!
