The woman who heals what doctors can't:
Barbara OβNeill.
This 71-year-old naturopath says true healing comes from nature, not drugs.
Here are her 9 essential laws for optimal health and longevity:
Khalwale vs Gachagua
Cheruiyot vs Ndii
Cherargei vs Murkomen
Kahiga Mutagi vs UDA headquarters
Gachagua vs Mudavadi.
There are so many battles going on in Kenya Kwanza that you can't keep count. But all of them are manifestations of different things, including but not limited to...
1. The mood in the country is that anyone who runs against Ruto in 2027, including Bifwoli Wakoli's domestic cat, Nelima, will beat him by a landslide. It has emboldened people both inside and outside government to say unspeakable things in broad daylight.
2. Because of the foregoing, Kikuyu entitlement and Kalenjin incompetence have finally parted company. Quite incredibly, each one thinks the other will cost it the presidency in 2027 and must get rid of the other! Since the regime is so unpopular, the Kikuyu think that they too can run a candidate and beat Ruto. In fact, when people like Ndii and Kuria throw words at wananchi, they are unwittingly helping drive a wedge between the people and Ruto.
3. Lee Njiru says in his book that within the Moi State House, the fight between the Kalenjin sub tribes was more vicious than that between the Kalenjin and other tribes. Moi's security machinery was built around Keiyos and Marakwets, like the Sumbeiywos and Kimaiyos, which mightily irked the populous Kipsigis and Nandis. Plus Moi's own Tugen (until fellow Tugen, Tonje, became military boss). Now, Cherargei is on Murkomen's neck. Cherargei is Nandi, like Ruto. Murkomen is Marakwet. You can bet your last calf that Cherargei's problem is not any corruption connected to Murkomen, but that as Ruto stares at defeat in 2027, Murkomen is building the money and political networks to be the Kalenjin alternative to Ruto. How dare he, a Marakwet, do that to the Nandi supremo? (I need to revisit the military angle to this).
4. Remember how Khalwale took on Gachagua last week? In which democracy does the Majority Whip whip the buttocks of the sitting Deputy President like that? Would Khalwale have gone all out on Rigathi without the blessings of both Mudavadi and Ruto? The simple answer is no. But there is another angle. Khalwale purported to warn the mountain that it will be Mulembe Nation's turn in 2032, not another mountaineer. But what if Mudavadi wants it in 2027? Remember Bifwoli's cat can win it? Even more intriguingly, what if Ruto himself thinks that his regime will be so unpopular that he can just help run Mudavadi against him so that if he gets beaten, it is by a more friendly person than Rigathi?
5. The consensus in Azimio is that Kalonzo will be the candidate. Kikuyus, having fallen out with Ruto, will probably find Kalonzo a better offer, if they don't run one of their own. In desperation, Ruto will turn to the Luo, and will offer Raila half the world to help him. Here is the question; between Kalenjin Incompetence and Kikuyu Entitlement, which one do you think the general Luo population would rather have? The answer is obvious. If things go like 5 here, that choice made by Luos will win it in 2027.
6. Let us not forget that if Bifwoli's cat can win it, then there is a huge constituency in the country that will feel that Raila is still very young and should finally take it. Raila's name is an industrial complex. It feeds politics at all levels. As long as Raila can raise one hand up in an ICU bed, there will be millions who demand that Amolo must be on the ticket, so that he can slay both Kikuyu Entitlement and Kalenjin Incompetence in one move!
Therefore, as Kenya Kwanza luminaries turn on each other, we bless the spirit of the Kilkenny cats in them. We however note that since Kikuyu Entitlement is an acquired taste while Kalenjin Incompetence is a born taste, we can tell which one is worse.
@WHO & @MOH_Kenya are this week encouraging citizens to take #COVID19 vaccines in Kakamega, Kilifi & Kisumu counties. Students from St Theresa Eregi Girls Secondary School are among those who got vaccinated. The campaign will run for 10 days.
