Deep State or Deep Stake

 African countries have been always on the lame light over megalomaniacs who cling to power for decades. Kenya has set a good example to the whole world on that Africans are maturing democratically.

The country went into heated campaigns for several months as each candidate tried to hawk his or her agendas. It was a historic exercise that oversaw the election of leaders peacefully across the nation without any sort of conflicts. The leaders who had issues went to court to protest the outcome. This is commendable to a country that has always been in crisis during the electioneering period. 

The deployed of state mercenary by the outgoing president to weaken the support base of his former ally turned futile as the locals stood firm and supported him to the end. This marked the end of the big families in Kenya's politics since independence. It was a big milestone that can be referred to as an eye opener to other African countries where leaders have curtailed their way to rule forever. 

The power belongs to the people and this was witnessed as all the leaders who were viewed as anti-people were sent home via the ballot. Majority of them suffered a political onslaught they did not wish to befall on them. The people proved to have a 'deep stake' via the ballot while those leaders who lost by relying on the 'deep state'. 

Future leadership in Kenya will now focus more on those matter in voting. The sovereignty of the people is key and should be respected. Incumbents must learn to exit power in peace and leave the citizens in harmony. Elections losers should consider themselves as winners because they will play a big role in oversight. This is only way the people can hold their leaders accountable. 

Deep states all over the world have been holding citizens hostages through state capture while on the side citizens have a deep state in making sure that service delivery is achieved through active communal oversight. A leadership that aims at achieving much must always involve the people in policy making and implementation of projects. 

The power play witnessed in Kenya should be an eye opener to those who are drunk with power. Everything has an end and power is temporary. Service delivery and respect to the voters is very crucial at all times. There is nothing so bad like exiting a position without a good reputation and a legacy worth remembering by the people. They will never forget what one did but they will always remember what they were made to go through by those in power.

Wamnyonyez The Husband

If you see two ladies aged 18+ years without babies on their back walking together in the morning in Nanyuki & its environs, then be informed that they are (husband & wife)Wamnyonyez. They stay in one house and misuse men together.  If you are a grown hairy jawed character and happen to approach one of them, whenever you go out to have fun the other partner will always appear mysteriously. You will end up paying unnecessary bills and fail to enjoy Kapedo. The next time you call her the partner picks her phone claiming that the main one is not around and since you are a senior Crocuta Crocuta you make up your feeble mental facilities to throw a vibe.  The daughter of Jezebel will drop you her phone number so that you can plan an orgasmic affair. In this case you should murife away because whatever awaits you is a shameful confrontation.  The partner will show up into dark Mnyangate dens. When you are busy imbibing sisal juice intoxicating your throat the old saitan...

Rigathi Gachagua The Village Darling

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua is promoting a very important culture that should be copied by everyone.  Most people who hustle in urban areas in this country never take their time off to walk more than 3 kilometres in the rural villages for fear of being told, "Mkubwa tuwaachie za kuchunga kijiji or fear of being bewitched."  How often do you interact with the nature?  When was the last time you took your wife and children to see your former primary school or fellow villagers?  Your work is just riding a fuel guzzler splashing mud or dust to your fellow villagers whenever you go there once in a year. You learn about issues happening in your village through social media or national breaking news yet you are busy lecturing people on how they can help to grow this country.  If you have zero attachment to your rural village. How will you help to change this country? Charity begins at home. First start with your own village if you want to leave a lega...
