Many citizens don't know why we fought for devolution. We can't go back to the old imperial system.
Karua and that team were against it.
Dr Crispin Mbai had to be assassinated because he was the chair of the devolution committee at Bomas.
The cabal didn't want it. They weakened it in the Wako/Kilifi draft, and that is why it was rejected in 2005, what led to the birth of ODM.
Factually, only 15% - 20% of the national revenue goes to counties.
The rest, 80% - 85%, remain in the national government.
We can't be going 10 steps forward, and then 15 steps backwards.
Vote for sober Governors, intelligent Senators and competent MCAs.
Attend county budgetary meetings and follow the proceedings of your county assemblies.
But you vote for idiots and crooks, hire corrupt contractors (Ni nyinyi wenyewe) who construct shoddy county projects, and then you come on social media to complain.
CHANGE or PERISH.
O God of all creation,
Bless this our land and nation,
Justice be our shield and defender,
May we dwell in unity,
Peace and Liberty,
Plenty be found within our borders.

Remember this:
People who have chosen to misunderstand you will do it no matter what you do for them.
You can choose to lie for them to walk on you, and they will still say your back is not flat enough.
Their perception of reality is only factual when they misinterpret you.
BROMODOSIS is the medical term for sweaty, smelly feet.
Antifungal creams won't cure bromodosis.
Solution:
Dip your feet in a basin of warm water mixed with 5 tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar for 5 minutes before bedtime. - Daily.
Dry your feet. Sleep.
#BetterTogether
Don't lose sleep because relatives are forcing you to marry.
Or your agemates are marrying.
That's their problem.
What should worry you is:
- Do I grow my food?
- Do I own cows & goats?
- Am I saving & investing?
- Do I have a skill?
- Do I have a house?

The next president will be decided by the Abaluhya vote.
If Abaluhya become united, Kenya will have a new president.
If they continue being disunited, Ruto will be relected.
Abaluhya don't know that they are so powerful in this nation. They are still sleeping, eating obusuma, buying M-kopa phones, and dancing olooko.
Abaluhya, wake up!
We can choose to remain cooks, maids and watchmen or we can decide to transform the economy of Western Kenya with a united voice.
Wake up!
STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART;
My best friend visited me last Friday. She stayed until late, so my boyfriend offered to drive her home. When he returned, he was angry and told me that my friend had tried to seduce him. He claimed that she attempted to kiss him, but he pushed her away. I was shocked! Later that same night, my friend sent me a voice note with a completely different story. She accused my boyfriend of trying to kiss her, saying she slapped him and warned him that she would tell me what had happened. Iโm faced with two stories from two people I care about. I donโt know who to believe, and Iโm feeling confused and hurt. Please advise. Lynn
Chavakali - Kapsabet has been the most rutted road in 20 years.
This important road serves the tea farmers of Vihiga County.
This vital road passes next to Mudavadi's home.
Mudavadi has been a government minister since 1989.
Some people think Mudavadi can help them.
3 days ago, I wrote a post about the dejection I observe in men each morning they leave their houses for work.
Today, I was just tagged in a story about a pilot who was disinherited by his ex-wife.
Despite putting so much effort into his marriage, being there for his family, and bequeathing his wealth to them, he has lost everything.
He is now homeless.
3 years ago, when I wrote here on X that a man must build his private citadel where he can disappear silently and secretly to find solitude and singularity, I was trolled, mocked, insulted, and berated for encouraging men to abandon their wives.
Here is the thing,
Nobody cares about you, the man.
Not even me, Amerix.
The only person who cares for you is YOU.
You either bite the bullet and start building your retirement bunker, or continue neglecting yourself and suffer the consequences of your ignorance.
