Why I will never vote for the KKK alliance

The trio leaders of Kenya’s Kikuyu, Kamba and Kalenjin alliance are tribalists who do not deserve to be even mere county representatives, leave alone presidency. They are propagating politics of patronage which will lead to tribal animosity in Kenya, a country that is just emerging from the edge of an abyss.

If it happens that these guys are voted to rule this country, then the future of Kenya hangs precariously in the balance. Their alliance is simply irrelevant to the needs of the overwhelming majority of the local citizens.

It is so unfortunate that many innocent Kenyans may be blackmailed into this unpromising alliance of tribal kingpins.

For all the reasons why I will never vote for the alliance is because there is one emerging development which has exposed the incurable poverty of leadership in the KKK formations and underlines the irretrievable irrelevance of the three men to Kenya’s political history and future.

It is their astounding inability to understand the meaning and context of national heroism and their shocking readiness to unashamedly wave ethnic flags to justify their opportunistic tribal nonsense under the deceitful cover of the so-called inclusive contemporary politics.

The attempt by the trio formations to use a tribal card to declare their leadership interest is insulting not only in national terms but to the people of Kenya who deserve to be treated with respect without being put into political pockets of individual politicians who have hidden personal agendas that have nothing whatsoever to do with community or national development.

This alliance is a threat to the unity of the country. The three men are coming to inadvertently push unethical political practice, and their leadership behaviour is bereft of values of good and of decency.

Is it not self-evident that these political capitalists are going no where? They are not the kind of leaders we as Kenyans want to have at this time round.

Kenya, the land of capitalists

I remember reading the 1979 accounts of the Iranian revolution, the book ‘No More Lies About Iran’ by Chief Musamaali Nangoli listed an intriguing tale of the Islamic Republic of Iran and how this country had survived until now the endless animosity from both the West and the East.
The 1979 Iranian revolutionary spiritual leader Rohullah al-Mosawi al-Khomeini

The book contains a message by the then Iranian revolutionary spiritual leader Rohullah al-Mosawi al-Khomeini. The speech in 1986, a few years after the revolution, addressed the plight of the Iranians and the Muslim world. A short part of it reads like this:

“…………….Despite the vast natural resources and fertile lands of the world, its waterways, seas and forests, the common people have been reduced to a state of poverty and helplessness, while the communists and money-hoarding capitalists develop friendly relations with imperialists and deny the people of their land, the right to live and the chance to take initiative into their own hands. By setting up monopolies and multi-national cooperation they in fact hold the economic pulse of the world in their hands and command all the channels of distribution, supply, demand, prices and even banking.

Through their fabricated notions and biased research they have managed to suggest to the disinherited masses the notion that they must either live under their influence or be doomed to abject poverty, that nature and human societies have determined that the majority should hunger for a morsel and starve to death while few perish from over-consumption, over-spending and over-indulging. At any rate this is the sort of calamity the imperialists have imposed on humanity…………………………………”

Leave alone the French and the Russian revolution, the world has ever known one revolution, and that was the Great Iranian Revolution. Prior to 1979 on the 10th and 11th of December 1978, between 6 and 9 million took part in anti-Shah demonstrations. This was the largest protest the world has ever seen, in terms of percentage of population involved.
Kenya needs search revolution………

Djibouti: Ahmednajad rubs salt in the wound of Obama yet

(Adopted from the Semi-Official Fars news in Tehran)

Iran and Djibouti agreed to boost mutual cooperation in naval fields, including training the Djiboutian army.

The call for mutual cooperation was raised by visiting Djiboutian Army's Joint Chief-of-Staff Fathi Ahmad Hossein in a meeting with Commander of the Iranian Navy Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari.

Iran's Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayarri

The two sides agreed to cooperate in counterterrorism, fighting against smugglers and pirates in the Gulf of Aden as well as ship repair and maintenance .

The Djiboutian top military commander pointed to the dispatch of the Iranian fleets of warships to the Gulf of Aden, and said, "The Iranian Navy can render cooperation to Djibouti in personnel training, ship guarding and protection, logistic affairs and naval equipments."

Rear Admiral Sayyari, for his part, said the Iranian Navy is ready to cooperate with the Republic of Djibouti in antipiracy efforts.

In December, Iranian and Djiboutian officials inked two Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) to boost mutual cooperation and bilateral ties between Iran and the East African state.

The MoUs were signed by the two countries' high-ranking officials in a ceremony attended by Iranian First Vice-President Mohammad Reza Rahimi and visiting Djiboutian Prime Minister Mohamed Dileita Dileita here in Tehran.

Iran and the African state signed an MoU to encourage and support mutual investment and another MoU to establish a joint investment committee.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's administration has striven hard to maximize relations with the African continent. Ahmadinejad said after a three-nation African tour on February 23, 2009 which took him to Djibouti, Kenya and Comoros that expanding Tehran's relations with the African countries sets a priority in Iran's foreign policy.

Eritrea Ruler: Tyranny Is There To Stay!

(Adopted from Eritrea Daily)

Speaking via his personal emissary in Israel, Mr. Tesfamariam Tekeste, Eritrea ruler, Isias Afewarki, reiterated that the Status Quo in Eritrea, out-and-out tyranny is there to stay and that he is not ready for democracy! Afewarki made the statement in a special interview with the Israeli media outlet Ynetnews posted to the web today.
Eritrean President Isias

"One mustn't force democracy on those who are not ready," "We are building ourselves now. We want to rely on our own resources and become independent."

"We are being blamed for not being a democratic country and having no free press. But one must work on education, clean water and employment to be ready for democracy, and that's what we're working on now." the ambassador told Ynetnew.com.

Eritrea tyrant and his foot soldiers consider declaring Eritrea as 'not ready for democracy' as bravado when such declaration is only testimony to the oppressive and suppressive nature of tyrant Afawarki's stronghold on our country!

Moreover, Mr. Tesfamarian told Ynetnews that Eritrea tyrant will not accept Eritrean citizens who are deported against their will from Israel!

“Eritrean Ambassador to Israel Debbas Tessamariam Tereste told Ynet that Israel should have turned away the first infiltrator as early as 2006, adding that his country will not accept citizens who were deported from Israel against their will.”

"if someone is forced to return from Israel against their will we shall refuse."

"These are people with different dreams and expectations, they will undermine national morale and bring back with them frustration and bitterness resulting from the great cultural differences" Mr. Tesfamaiam added.

Eritrea tyrant's refusal to accept Eritrean refugees to their own homeland is equally not a bravado either but fortifies and validates Eritrean refugees political asylum claims against the tyrannical reign of Afewarki. Only in Eritrea is that possible. How do you deny people of their own Homeland? No one applies for political asylum against his own Homeland but against the government? And if refugees are deported to their country of origin willingly or against their will, there are laws that regulate their behaviour and activities? Bad behaviour, moral cultural differences cannot be grounds to deny refugees of their own homeland!

Drought destruction in the Horn comes hot yet

The catastrophic and endless drought in the Horn of Africa region yet opens its jaws in red; the victims are always the listless and depressed herders. It is death and despair for millions of famine-famished pastoralists. Read the story at Onislam.net of how the drought torments the region.

Anybody should expect the downfall of an arrow shot towards the sky

Over the past few weeks many commentaries and analysis have been written about the prospects of a new state in the Horn of Africa, the post-referendum Sudan and the secession of Southern Sudan.

An analysis on IRIN website weighs the secession with the title: Securing A Peaceful Divorce In Sudan, Daily Nation writes ‘Bashir has no choice but to lose South” and Uganda’s New vision says : “African Union must keep an eye on Sudan's referendum”

But of all the commentaries I read, I like the far-away piece from the Middle East, Al-arabiya’s Mostapha El Mouloudi who albeit briefly, covered his research analysis with a great title: ‘Sudanese need to maintain bonds’

Mostapha argues that it should be noted that the self-determination referendum in Sudan is important to settle outstanding internal issues, but it can also have regional and international repercussions.

It is a matter of days though, before we will see how things will turn in Sudan, one thing for sure is, Sudan has already witnessed the worst of wars it could. It is a country that lost over two million of its citizens in decades-long instability.

And a referendum like any other election in Africa can result a fresh civil war as issues in Sudan are so delicate and can result an endless conflict.

Much to may dismay, the international community, most critically Sudan’s neighbors like Kenya and Uganda are meddling in the affairs of the country more than it is necessary.
Sudan’s referendum will never be free and fair, if the level of interfering of these two countries is anything to go by.

Kenya takes advantage of its hosting of the Sudanese peace process. Kenya’s politician are seemingly playing a pivotal role to force the South to secede from the North, rather than waiting for a fair secession. It is possibly arguable that Kenya is arming the South to govern itself by all means, by hook or by crook. The recent controversial shipment of tanks is a clear indication.

Museveni’s Kampala has not been without blames, with reports indicating that his forces trooped towards the Sudanese border. Whatever interest Uganda is pursuing, it is expressly understandable that it is interfering with the prospect of a peaceful referendum.

In the real politics, there seems to be serious religious dichotomy, Neighbouring Christian countries are seemingly supporting the South more than the North. Although the South has realized more suffering over the years, it is not a reason enough for the international community to deviate all its attention to the South.

A smooth secession is the ultimate goal for both the North and the South, But the seemingly absence of that will greatly result bloody incursion.

The arrow will obviously hit back the ground and the resulting devastation will spare neither Kenya nor Uganda.

Drawing Muslim Image on Kenyan Airwaves

Over the past few years, Kenyan media have often demonized the Muslim community, especially following the 1998 bombings of US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and the 9/11 attacks.
