I like Our Traditional Means of Exposing Law Breakers…


I really enjoy seeing our medicine men and women use their expertise to catch thugs, thieves or law breakers.

The idea of people eating grass is very welcome. Seriously, since it is working why don’t we make use of it? Besides it is a good way of putting these law breakers at bay. It makes police work easier and even saves pastors a lot of work praying for the law breakers to be caught and it saves tax payers money being used for investigation.

The other day in Kiambu some few men decide to go on spree of raping women, they did it until one woman decided enough was enough she collected urine samples from all the women who had been raped and visited one of the many traditional doctors in Kenya. Lo and behold the, age mates of all the men who had raped the women become swollen such that they could not wear their trousers and they gladly confessed, what they had done…

We have witnessed on Televisions men eating grass. This is not unusual Nebuchadnezzar also ate grass. I have always wondered when the culprits eat grass how does the digestive system process it? at least for the animals they chew cud and the human beings. Anyway that is beside the point. The good news is that, our cultures have remedies of how they dealt with the lawbreakers who were a menace to the community, why is it that we do not explore some of these nice aspects of our cultures. They worked then and even now they are still working and very effective.

It’s just a thought….

Are Church Leaders Fighting The Condom Or Sex???...

I still cannot understand what the hullabaloo is all about with the condom advert. My view, that advert makes a lot of sense. The makers of the advert are realistic and admitting that married people are having illicit sex or enjoying the forbidden fruits outside of their matrimonial homes. What I construed from the advert is that the woman is not having her nocturnal exercises at home and hence her need to keep a side dish to provide  those essential services. Am sure there are many valid reasons in homes that are driving couples to leave their matrimonial beds. That, I think is what the church leaders should be addressing, not the sheath they choose for protection. We need to know why respectable men/women feel the need to quench their thirst away from home. And the best people to furnish us, with that information is the church leaders because they are the ones who do counseling to these couples. Church leaders should think of how to address the sex subject rathe...

Luo is a Romantic Language…

In my short or long stay on this earth I have had the privilege of interacting with many of the languages spoken in Kenya and one dialect I would say has stood out and I have come to love is the Luo dialect. The dialect according to me is very romantic; it should actually be classified among the others of the world which are regarded as romantic. The way their words flow, as they speak, one has no option but to enjoy listening. This is a language, firstly the words rhyme so well with English language; secondly a word can be used in so many instances until one gets confused. Take for example the now common words ‘ Gini Wesikawo ” when these words were spoken by supporters of one team who were shouting to the supporters of the opposing team, even before a football match was over that they have taken the trophy the same words have now evolved or transformed until they are featuring in adverts as a way of bidding us goodbye. Then there was the music duo Gidi Gidi and Maji M...

Masaku sevens ….I hear it was a show to behold….

I have really been thinking a lot about what I hear happened during Masaku 7’s. And mind you though being in Machakos on that day I got home early before all the free live movies started. So I just heard just like some of you. No wonder people say free things are not good. In one way or the other let us be glad it happened now in broad day light the last time Masaku sevens was in Machakos the young people were discreet they did their mating in the darkness where their parents could not see them and the consequences of what happened at night were visible the following morning with the littering of their implements of trade. But this time around I guess all bets were off and behold they threw caution in the air and hence the reason for the daytime movies.                                       ...
