etails of how the three main political parties TNA, ODM and URP will share Sh205 million became clear yesterday, a day after a judge dismissed a case by small parties which had been seeking a share of the cash. TNA will get Sh89.3 million, ODM Sh87.4 million and URP Sh28.2 million. Although the fund had been allocated Sh2.88 billion or 0.3 per cent of the national revenue the National Treasury has only released Sh205 million. President Kenyattas The National Alliance got 21,667,938 votes accounting for 29.74 per cent of the total votes cast while Orange Democratic Movement led by Mr Raila Odinga, was second with 19,032,997 (29.12 per cent). The United Republican Party led by Deputy President William Ruto, was third with 6,843,730 (9.39 per cent) of the votes cast. Those were the only three parties that qualied for a share of the Political Parties Fund. Ms Lucy Ndungu, the Registrar of Political Parties, yesterday said her team was working on how to release the money. All the other parties that participated in the General Election, will

ODM will get Sh87.4 million. URP: Mr William Ruto, was the Jubilee Coalitions running mate in the presidential race. His party will get Sh28.2m.

miss out on the public funding. They include Wiper Democratic Movement of Mr Odingas Cord running-mate Kalonzo Musyoka, United Democratic Front whose presidential candidate was Mr Musalia Mudavadi, and Narc-Kenya led by another presidential candidate, Ms Martha Karua. Also missing out is the former ruling party Kanu led by Mr Gideon Moi, Kenya Social Congress whose presidential candidate was Mr Peter Kenneth, and Ford-Kenya led by Mr Moses Wetangula, also of the Cord Coalition. A party must secure at least ve per cent of the total votes cast to qualify for public funding. UDF, whose presidential candidate nished third, only managed 3.96 per cent of the vote. Small parties, which failed to meet the threshold, had gone to court seeking that coalitions be regarded as parties but Mr Justice David Majanja rejected their plea. Now that there is no court order, Ms Ndungu said in a telephone interview with the Nation, we have started the process of releasing the funds to the political parties which qualify. In calculating how much money each political party gets, Ms Ndungus team had lumped all the presidential votes for the Jubilee Coalition to TNA and Cords gures to ODM.

tions were then tallied to give the nal gure. Judge Majanja helped resolve the puzzle of presidential votes garnered by Jubilee and Cord coalitions when he said they would not be factored in the sharing out of the funds. He, however, said that in future, Parliament can amend the Political Parties Act to come up with a formula which would allow coalitions to draw money from the parties fund. It is still open to Parliament to review the criteria and formula for funding political parties, including coalitions... in order to benet more political parties, he said in his ruling on Monday. The sharing of the funds will give the three parties a lifeline after months of nancial diculties which arose after some MPs and senators declined to pay their monthly contributions.
UDF: Mr Musalia Mudavadi was the Amani Coalition presidential candidate. The former deputy PM nished third with 483,981 votes cast, accounting for 3.96 per cent of the total vote. UDF will not benet because it fell short of the ve per cent threshold. WIPER DEMOCRATIC PARTY: Former Vice-President Kalonzo Musyoka, the party leader, was the Cord Coalition running mate. His party, which has 21 MPs, also lost out. KANU: The oldest party in the country, and which was in power for 39 years, also lost out. It did not eld a presidential candidate but supported Mr Musalia Mudavadi of the Amani Coalition. FORD KENYA: The party led by Mr Moses Wetangula was an aliate of Cord. Though Mr Wetangula became the Minority Leader in the Senate, his party will also not get any money from the parties fund.
ODM denies Sh1.5bn for run-o was stolen

BY NATION REPORTER
ODM has denied claims that its top ocials swindled it of Sh1.5 billion set aside to nance the presidential run-o. No run-o took place after President Kenyatta won the March 4, 2013 election. And the partys executive director, Mr Magerer Langat (below) dismissed allegations by one of the partys former National Elections Board members, Mr Aggrey Azelwa, who has challenged the party leadership to account for the cash. Mr Azelwa is also demanding that the partys national elections scheduled for February 28 be postponed until officials explain how the money was spent. T h e amount in question was approved by the party and set aside for the partys presidential re-run campaigns, Mr Azelwa claimed in a statement sent to newsrooms. The storm over the lost cash came even as preparation for the partys National Delegates Convention (NDC) continued. We do not have such kind of money. Furthermore Mr Azelwa was fired from the NEB and he knows the reasons that led to the decision to sack him,Mr Magerer said.

This Thursday, ODM has called for a fundraiser to raise part of the Sh30 million budget to finance the NDC. And yesterday party leader Raila Odinga dismissed rumours that the delegates meeting had been postponed. He also allayed fears that the elections would be unfair.

Sh12bn for the poor released

BY NATION REPORTER
President Kenyatta yesterday launched a cash safety net for old people, orphans and the disabled. Some Sh12 billion will be given out this nancial year to them, he said at Ihura stadium in Muranga. Those in the net were expected to increase to 454,000 households from 500 that were covered when the payout was started 10 years ago, he said. The stipend had changed lives, according to the President. It has reduced poverty, met the basic needs of the beneciaries and increased households savings, he said. It must succeed and corruption will not be tolerated, the Head of State warned. Government ocials and grassroots leaders must involve the public and ensure fairness in identifyig those to be paid, he said. They must be registered according to need and the cash must reach them regularly and at the appropriate time, he said, and warned that delays would not be entertained. As a government we have decided that we must take care of our senior citizens in the society, said the President. He urged Kenyans to pay taxes so the senior citizens can be paid. Lets pay taxes promptly so that the projects we have initiated can continue without failure, he said. He urged those charged with collecting and handling taxes to be persons of integrity. Deputy President William Ruto said the government had fullled one of the pledges the Jubilee coalition leaders made to Kenyans during campaigns before the last General Election. He said this was the fth of the promises the President had launched. Mr Ruto said it would assist the country to have a safety net to assist the underprivileged to carry on with their lives. Every constituency will get the cash allowance known as Inua Jamii. Safaricoms MPesa mobile phone money transfer service will be used to distribute the money.
he Senate last evening brushed aside a court order barring it from discussing the fate of Embu Governor Martin Wambora. It set up a committee of 11 to consider his impeachment. No mention was made of the court order obtained by Mr Wambora from the High Court in Nairobi. Neither Speaker Ekwee Ethuro nor the 16 senators who spoke made any indication that they had seen the order. Most senators said the consideration of the impeachment was a test for the Senate.
Because the court order was not mentioned yesterday, it is likely to be one of these objections. Nyeri Senator Mutahi Kagwe asked committee members to ignore all other issues that may arise in the course of their work over the next 10 days. Prof Anyang Nyongo (Kisumu, ODM) suggested other governors would learn from Mr Wamboras experience. Committee members Boni Khalwale and Kipchumba Murkomen said the hearings would be about due process. I would like to assure the governor of Embu and his deputy that they have nothing to fear, said Dr Khalwale. Nairobi High Court judge David Majanja had stopped the Senate from discussing Mr Wamboras removal. He ruled yesterday that the urgent petition by Mr Wambora had raised weighty constitutional issues. I am aware of the doctrine of separation of powers which demands that the Judiciary shows deference to the legislature on certain matters and every State organ including the Legislature is subject to the Constitution and the nal arbiter is the court, said Justice Majanja. Mr Wamboras deputy, Ms Nditi, has also led a separate petition to stop her removal from oce. Her lawyer, Mr Kibe Mungai, argued that impeaching her alongside the governor was unlawful since there is no specic clause for the removal of a deputy governor.

VIOLENCE | Preachers ask government to shelve drastic action, warning that it could lead to further radicalisation of Muslim youth
Protests greet plan to close down mosque

Leaders also demand release of women and children arrested in Sundays clashes
BY NATION TEAM
newsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com uslim leaders have warned that closing down the Masjid Musa mosque in Mombasa would not solve the problem of violence and extremism in the Coastal region. The mosque was on Sunday rocked by violence in which three people among them a policeman were killed. In a statement read by Sheikh Ibrahim Lithome at Jamia Mosque in Nairobi yesterday, the preachers said closing down the mosque could cause more extremism. They also criticised the police for storming the mosque while wearing shoes, contrary to Islamic religious rules. We cannot afford to keep quiet on the fact that police used excessive force in disrupting the meeting. Whereas we do not support any illegal activity, whether by a Muslim or non-Muslim, the action by the police cannot be justied at all. It sets a very bad precedent. Places of worship should be respected, Sheikh Lithome said. He said police had been informed about the meeting and even allowed
it to go on until midday. Could the police not stop the meeting before it took place? he asked. In their statement, the leaders asked the police to release women and children arrested during the Sunday clashes. Muslims from Migori County also told the police to respect places of worship. Migori County Muslim Development Committee chairman Omar Hussein Ebrahim said the perception that Muslims were associated with terrorism is very wrong and disturbing. The police should have waited outside the mosque, he said. We support the ght against terrorism but it must respect everybodys right to worship. However, Supkem secretary-general Adan Wachu criticised youths who were ushed out of the mosque. The Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims is shocked by the utter illegality, criminality and un-Islamic actions by marauding youths in Musa mosque, he said. We are unable to say the brand of faith they represent. Muslim scholars and preachers, some of who spoke on condition of anonymity, said claims by Mombasa County Commissioner Nelson Marwa that the programme was being funded by tycoons were true. Kenya Muslim Youth Alliance Coast regional coordinator Hamisi Juma Mwaguzo blamed parents for failing to stop their children from joining the Jihad crusade which he

said was detrimental to peace. Muslims for Peace and Community Development chairman Feisal Abdul Gatibaru criticised organisations such as the Council of Imams and Preachers of Kenya and Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims for failing to stop the propaganda for violence. One source, who spoke on condition of anonymity said: Meetings are frequently held where several youth and radical-minded people are invited. The meetings usually take place in upmarket private bungalows in Nyali, Tudor, Kizingo and even outside Mombasa. Most youths targeted are those from poor families. Those recruiting them approach their families with the agenda of teaching them religion and in turn, give the family between Sh40,000 and Sh80,000. Once the young boys are taken away, they undergo a long period of

fasting and rigorous indoctrination at undisclosed locations. At the end of the process, the young people are so brainwashed that they are ready to die for the same ideology, said the source. The agents target the young minds because it is easier to train and persuade them. Once the initial indoctrination is completed, the youths are then sent to Somalia to undergo military training under Al-Shabaab. Between 2004 and 2006, it earned an agent Sh10,000 to send a recruit to Somalia. These days, it has become hard to convince the boys since the Kenya Defence Forces went to Somalia so the package has increased to Sh100,000, said another source.

@PaulOgemba pogemba@ke.nationmedia.com our suspects, among them an employee of the Somali embassy, were yesterday charged with committing and planning terror attacks in Kenya. The first count against Mr Hassan Abdi Mohamud, Mr Mohammed Osman Ali, Mr Ilyas Yusuf Warsame and Mr Garad Hassan Fer, all from Somalia, was that of commissioning a terrorist attack at Java Restaurant at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on January 16. In the second charge, the four were accused of being in possession of explosives two kilogrammes of Trinitrotoluene (TNT) on January 16 at Shauri Moyo shopping centre in Nairobi. They faced other charges of being unlawfully in Kenya and obtaining Kenyan identication cards by presenting false information to registration bureaus in Isiolo, Wajir and Garissa between 2004 and 2011.

NHIF accused of bid to delay case

BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
A health provider allegedly involved in a Sh600 million scam has accused the national health insurer of delaying a case to avoid paying its dues. Meridian Medical Centre claimed the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) was trying to clear its name through the media to avoid paying the money for provision of services. Meridian, which is represented by Murui and Mungai Advocates, claimed NHIF was trying to delay the case by refusing to comply with an order to le court documents at the required time. NHIF has other related matters in court, a judicial review case and a criminal proceeding. They have been defending themselves through the media, the health provider said. A pre-trial for the case in which Meridian sued NHIF, seeking an outstanding payment of Sh696,658,653 was to start yesterday. However, the health insurer said it was not ready for the pre-trial as it did not have witness statements. The fund requested for 30 more days to have the witness statements ready for the pre- trial. Meridian wanted it to be allowed up to Monday to comply. Lady Justice Jacqueline Kamau questioned both parties for seeking a pretrial date yet they were not prepared. She ordered NHIF and Meridian to provide a joint statement on what they wanted determined in seven days. NHIF was further ordered to provide the witness statements in two weeks. In the suit, Meridian argues that the fund awarded it the tender to provide primary health care services to civil servants and members of the disciplined services after carrying out a pilot study. Meridian and Thika Road Health Services Ltd were awarded the contract for a six-month pilot phase but signed a contract to roll out a nationwide scheme for a period of ve years on December 3, 2008. The pre-trial will be held on February 18.

jwanja@ke.nationmedia.com ome of the meat sold in city butcheries is contaminated with bacteria associated with kidney failure. A research by the Kenya Medical Research Institute on Nairobis meat retail market and slaughterhouses found that 16 per cent of the meat sampled was infected with bacteria. The bacteria lives in the intestines of infected people and can cause diarrhoea. The researchers linked the contamination to poor slaughtering and under-cooking.

The Judiciary plans to set up a High Court in every county, Chief Registrar Anne Amadi has said. Currently, there are 23 High Courts in the country. Speaking during a press conference at Panafric Hotel in Nairobi yesterday, Ms Amadi said: We will be rehabilitating courts and building new ones. Mobile courts will continue to administer justice, especially in far-ung areas, she added. She stressed that access to justice is a State obligation.
How to avoid infections

Wash your hands thoroughly after using the bathroom before preparing or eating food. Wash your hands after contact with animals or their environments. Cook meat thoroughly. Avoid raw milk, unpasteurised dairy products, and unpasteurised juices such as fresh apple cider. Prevent cross-contamination in food preparation areas by thoroughly washing hands, counters, cutting boards and utensils after they touch raw meat.

ples of meat from Nairobi had the strain of bacteria similar to that reported in Ethiopia, Spain and Palestine. In May 2012, several European countries took action to curtail an E. coli outbreak from contaminated vegetables. Escherichia coli, abbreviated as E. coli, are a large and diverse group of bacteria found in various types of raw foods, vegetables and esh. Although most strains of Ecoli are harmless, others can make you sick. The study notes that Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli was identied in 16 per cent of the beef sampled. The 16 per cent is similar to similar studies in Palestine, Spain and Ethiopia, said Ms Kabea. In February and May 2012, the Public Health and Sanitation ministry closed Burma market for a clean-up and fumigation to rid it of rodents and foul smell. Public health experts warn that people of any age can become infected though young children and the elderly are more likely to develop severe illness.

Egypt told to release journalists

BY NATION REPORTER
Journalists yesterday camped outside the Egyptian embassy in Nairobi demanding the release of three colleagues held in Cairo. The group marched to the embassy carrying placards that read Journalism is not a crime! and shouting slogans like No rest till we see Greste! Egypt has detained Al Jazeera television journalist Peter Greste, Baher Mohamed and a Fahmy, accusing them of spreading lies harmful to state security and joining a terrorist organisation.

Farm worker gets 100 years for rape of minor

The court also heard that Olow, 38, deled a 15-yearold girl in Lagboqol Division, Wajir South District, on July 21 last year. The minor was in the company of her younger sister looking after their animals when she was attacked. The same court was told that 42-year-old Abdi from Jogoo village in Wajir West District attempted to dele his 15-year-old step-daughter, subjecting her to indecent acts. The incident led to his separation with his wife. Wajir magistrate Linus Kasan said the sentences would serve as a deterrent to those who may contemplate deling helpless minors. According to Mr Kasan, 34 cases of rape and delement had been brought to his attention but the court handed down sentences in only four. The other 30 cases, he

INVESTIGATION | Higher education quality regulator warns prospective students that degree certicates obtained through short-
How students who fail KCSE end up on degree courses

With a grade below the required C+, one can obtain a degree certicate in four years
BY SAMWEL BORN MAINA
sborn@ke.nationmedia.com
AND GRIFFINS OMWENGA

gomwenga@ke.nationmedia.com orm Four graduates with grades as low as D are gaining express admission to most local private universities. A Nation investigation has unearthed the serious breach in university admissions through which a candidate who scored a mean grade of D plain in the Kenya Certicate of Secondary Education (KCSE) can obtain an undergraduate degree in a record four years or less. It means one who scores the grade can end up graduating at the same time as another who scores an A plain and is admitted through the Joint Admissions Board. The investigation that is likely to give credence to employer complaints that institutions are churning out incompetent graduates found out that many of the 36 universities and colleges competing
for students have devised a system through which those who failed are put through a three-month programme and afterward oered straight entry to an undergraduate degree programme. However, Commission for Higher Education (CUE) secretary David Some said yesterday that degrees obtained through such means were not worth the paper they were written on. The commission, he said, was aware of many private universities that had admitted unqualied students. Such graduates would be shocked when they seek jobs in public oces as their degrees would not be endorsed, he warned. It means that those in universities studying for degree courses but scored C plain or below and did not rst go through government-endorsed certicate and diploma courses are in for a rude shock. That is the law, that is the regulation, that is the standard and that is the policy, according to our Constitution and even international standards, said Prof Some. The head of the education standards council said many institutions of higher learning had devised mechanisms
Rude shock
of duping Kenyans that they can offer short pre-university courses for prospective students who scored less than C+. That is wrong because we will declare the certicates null and void, he said. These are just ways of looking for money but then as a commission, we are guided by the law and as long as that is the case, then all those who did not meet the prerequisite conditions stand to lose. Prof Some was categorical that the only recognised path for those who did not score the minimum grade of C+ and wanted to pursue degree courses was to rst undertake a minimum three-year diploma course, acquire work experience then proceed to undertake a degree course. Most Kenyans like taking short-cuts but it is only good that those who know this follow the rightful procedure to avoid future tears when one is seeking a public job, he stated. Those who may want to become governors, MPs and President are among those whose papers could be rejected once the commissions turn to vet them comes, he said. Anything less than the required route is a total waste of money that will later come to haunt many of us.
With a KCSE certicate of C- the Nation was oered a chance, for a former candidate, in most of the private universities. All that the candidate was asked to pay was Sh50,000 to gain admission to a threemonth programme. Most of the private institutions asked for a Sh1,000 admission fee and in less than ve minutes, the candi-
date would be on the route to acquiring a university degree in less than four years. This was possible due to the pre-university programme for those who failed to reach the direct university entry grade of C+. At Presbyterian University, armed with the C KCSE certicate, the Nation was advised that the student we were applying for would be admitted despite the low marks. He would be required to go through the pre-university course at the institutions Kikuyu campus and then join a one-year diploma course before proceeding to a degree course for two years. The pre-university course entails tuition on Mathematics, English, two science subjects and a bit of introduction to psychology. At Mt Kenya University, a student with a C is required to undertake a certicate course for six months. On completion, the student is admitted for a diploma course which takes one year. The learner will then join an undergraduate course of choice for two and half years. In total, therefore, a student who failed in KCSE is able to have a degree in four years. At Kenya Methodist University, all the Nation investigators needed was to apply for the pre-university course. The United States International University would only admit a student with a C for a degree course after he or she has undertaken a pre-university course from a number of universities they recommend. Most of the institutions agreed to admit a C (minus) student on condition he or she completes the pre-university
course and scores a GPA mark of above 2.5. That guarantees admission on the spot. However, in one of the colleges, the student would still be ineligible for admission to sciences like medicine. You can take the other business related programmes like Bachelor in Business Management or art-oriented programmes just like any other, said an ocial from one of the universities who spoke on condition of anonymity. Recently, employers complained that students coming out of universities in Kenya were half-baked and could not perform essential functions of the course they studied in the university. CUE chairman Henry Thairu said the agency was faced with a delicate balancing act between ensuring that quality education was available in Kenya without denying people the right to pursue their dreams. Those who have not managed to score the requisite grade of a C+ or above should not be condemned entirely but should be afforded the opportunity to access higher education, he said. Access and relevance are really the universal benchmarks of a mature education system and as an institution, our intention is really to ensure even the pre-university programmes are not diluted only to serve the cause for money, said Prof Thairu. The charges for this pre-university course ranges between Sh55,000 to Sh60,000 at different universities. A student with a GPA score of more than 2.5, the equivalent of a C + is guaranteed a place in the undergraduate class despite the KCSE grade.

National Association of Private Universities of Kenya chairman Simon Gicharu instead said members were offering quality learning because they admitted fewer students. However, he urged the Commission for University Education to move fast and stop students with low grades from being admitted. If that grade (C-) is allowed to enter into an undergraduate class, then the quality of education in the country is under threat, he said. The Mt Kenya University chairman in defence said the institutions oered maximum individual attention to students which was a boost for the learners. He denied that applicants with a C- and above were gaining admission to the universities, in particular Mt Kenya University. Only when you have a C (plain) and a diploma, will you join a university, he said, although the Nation established otherwise.

some holding masters degrees, were not creative at work or lacked diligence. We are questioning the quality of education oered in our universities, most graduates we hire do not have skills in their areas of study to help them compete in the workplace, executive director Jacqueline Mugo said. In Nairobis city centre for instance, university or campuses can be seen in dierent buildings. Admission takes a short time and students can enrol for daytime or evening classes. FKE noted that some students were not prepared to undertake degree courses. Ms Mugo said that students who did not make the cut for direct university admission, should undertake other preparatory academic programmes like certicates and diplomas so as to prepare them for university degrees. That is why we have an increasing number of graduates who cannot stand to defend their papers because they have only been pushed through a level of education that is superior to their mental faculties, said the FKE boss. FKE, she added, supported the CUE on the minimum requirements, saying that several universities had dierent academic programmes that couldnt adequately be used to measure academic qualications as eciently as high school grades.

Rethink bursary schemes to cushion poor students

ebate has been raging over the fees Form One students reporting to their respective schools this week are required to pay, with the grouse being that the high costs could lock out many bright children from poor backgrounds. This is a valid concern that needs serious attention. However, the discussion has tended generally to scratch the surface while failing to drill down to the root cause of the problem. Generally, most national and top provincial schools charge between Sh70,000 and Sh100,000 a year and for new students, there are additional costs that push up the fees. Clearly, this gure is out of reach of many families and a barrier to secondary school education. But that is just part of the problem. There are fundamental questions that are scarcely addressed. For instance, what is the realistic fees that schools should charge? How should children from poor backgrounds be cushioned and assisted to pursue secondary education? On the rst question, the Ministry of Education provides fees guidelines, ranging from about Sh16,000 to Sh30,000. It also gives a Sh10,000 subsidy for every child a year. But these gures are unrealistic and unworkable. No school can be run on such amounts. The corollary is that schools are allowed to raise levies in consultation with parents, which is another fallacy. Regarding the second question, the government allocates substantial sums of money every year for bursaries to support needy children. Unfortunately, this has been abused through the way the funds are disbursed, namely through constituency bursary committees and the CDF. The funds never reach the needy and when they do, the amounts are insucient and come too late past the school term dates. The government must invest properly in secondary education and rethink the bursary models to make learning aordable and guarantee quality at this level.
COMPETITIVE BIDDING | Jaindi Kisero
Court will end impunity

als. Such a court will give the Judiciary teeth to try perpetrators of crimes such as the 2007-2008 post-election violence that have already landed the President and his deputy before the ICC in The Hague. The ICC picked only the principal suspects, and therefore dozens who directly participated in the planning and actual killing, rape, arson and other serious crimes against humanity remain free. These are the suspects the International Crimes Division should prosecute if it is indeed free and independent to pursue justice for the victims and punishment of perpetrators without direction from the political authorities. There will be a need to demonstrate that the establishment of the court is not just a PR exercise to persuade the international community that Kenya has the capacity to try post-election violence cases. It is worth recalling that the Kenyan cases ended up in The Hague principally because the government demonstrated no inclination to pursue justice for the victims. It remains to be seen whether anything has changed in that regard.

hen the dust raised by the controversy over the standard gauge railway saga settles, it is imperative that we start a national conversation on the whole concept of tied aid. These are cases where lender countries insist that the infrastructure projects they nance must be awarded to construction companies from their countries. By the logic of tied aid, the standard gauge railway project had to go to a Chinese company since our hands were tied by the fact that 85 per cent of the money was going to come from China. Tied aid is not a Chinese phenomenon. As a matter of fact, literally every Western donor has its own institution they have set up to create work in developing countries for their own companies. As beggars, we cannot choose. However, we must at all times insist on basic minimum conditions of transparency in dealing with lending nations. Some of the questions we must ask are: First, where is the transparency in accepting a feasibility study done on the basis of terms of reference written by the contractor doing the job? I think the parliamentary committees investigating the standard gauge railway project should engage an
Although railway project is tied aid, basic rules of transparency still apply W
independent railway engineering consultancy rm to interrogate the issue of cost. If Chinese construction companies are that good, why did we not allow more of them to compete for the railway project? And who said that a government-to-government deal meant that we are obliged to give the contract to China Roads and Bridges Corporation? I ask this question because I have seen many cases where government-togovernment deals have been subjected to open competitive bidding. Two years ago, the Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) negotiated a government-to-government deal with India, where the Exim Bank of India extended loans to Kenya to nance the building of new electricity transmission lines. As usual, the condition of this loan was that construction must be done by Indian companies. Ketraco placed an advertisement in the newspapers inviting Indian companies to bid for the job. Then there was the case where the Japanese extended a Sh16 billion loan to fund the building of a second container terminal in Mombasa. Only Japanese companies were allowed to compete for the job. Again, the Kenya Ports Authority put out tenders inviting Japanese construction companies to come up with bids. Why did we bend the rules to accommodate the Chinese in the case of the standard gauge railway project? Indeed, there are several cases where Chinese companies have had to ght it out for projects in this country. I still remember the erce battle last year between the Chinese companies ZTE and Huawei for the multi-billion-shilling police telecommunications project. Then there is the development of a green-eld airport terminal at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. This project, currently under consideration for Chinese export buyers credits, was competitively procured through an open tender. Chinese companies ercely fought for the project. Another mega project that was targeted by the Chinese is the building of the Lamu Port. This project was competitively procured, with the China Communications Construction Company winning the tender at Sh41 billion. The government has applied for a Chinese Exim Bank loan of $700 million to nance the project. Ahead of President Kenyattas visit to Beijing last year, Mining Cabinet secretary Najib Balala signed a memorandum of understanding with China Geotechnical Exploration Technology of Jiansi in which the Chinese rm will map the countrys mineral resources. Although, the Chinese contractor has been single-sourced, the project will be nanced through a fully-funded grant from the Chinese Government. Where a foreign government gives a full grant to nance a project, as was the case with the Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital in Nairobi, we must allow the person who pays the piper to call the tune. But where billions in public resources are to be spent, as is the case with the standard gauge railway project, competitive bidding and independently conducted feasibility studies and designs should be mandatory. jkisero@ke.nationmedia.com

JUSTICE | Michael Meyer
ust before the turn of the new millennium, a prominent human rights advocate stopped by to brief me on his eorts to create an international criminal court. The world needed an impartial, truly global tribunal to prosecute crimes against humanity. How else would we punish and in the future deter perpetrators of such horrors as Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia? I admired the mans zeal and his idealism. Yet I was wary. Such crimes are almost always shaped by context and seldom occur in the abstract. What of Winston Churchill, I asked, the wartime British prime minister responsible for the gratuitous re-bombing of Dresden? Or Harry S. Truman, who ordered the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? The answer was unambiguous: Both were war criminals who should be in the dock. Let us be realistic: There is a deep disconnect here. Justice is a noble ideal but when abstraction collides with pragmatism, the latter generally prevails. Such is the case with the International Criminal Court today, scarcely 12 years old and already failing. To date, 122 countries have signed the Rome Statute, including all of South America, most of Europe, and roughly half the countries of

was acquitted, prompting an immediate appeal by the prosecutor, also indenitely pending. In early 2005, the ICC indicted Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir and six others for crimes against humanity in Darfur. Nearly a decade later, nothing has happened. In Cote dIvoire, former president Laurent Gbagbo was accused of war crimes in the countrys 2010-11 civil war and remanded in ICC custody. Nearly three years later, he is yet to be charged. In Kenya, the case against President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy, William Ruto, has degenerated into farce. Put aside claims that it was carelessly brought. In January, the prosecutor asked for an indenite deferral, citing lack of evidence. Witnesses on both sides recanted previous testimony. Under cross examination, one confessed to being paid by the prosecution as well as forging hotel receipts and other expenses covered by the court. The abrupt resignation of a leading judge, last week, reects the fecklessness of the proceedings. Some at the court hope Mr Kenyatta never comes to trial for fear he would be acquitted so resoundingly as to deal a fatal blow to the ICCs credibility. Many believe the tribunal is overtly politicised, with a

The court has been asked to investigate alleged crimes in 139 countries but, so far, has done so in only eight, issuing 36 indictments and 27 arrest warrants all in Africa. As for the proceedings themselves, the record has been decidedly mixed. The post-World War II Nuremberg tribunal tried two dozen top Nazi ocials in less than a year. The contrast to todays ICC is glaring.

built-in bias against Africans. Others accuse it of being strong against weak countries and weak against strong ones. In Western capitals, especially, the trade-o between peace and justice is glossed over as a false choice: There is no peace without justice, no justice without peace, as the clich goes. In less stable parts of the world, however, peace and justice may not be so easily compatible, at least simultaneously. There is a place for a more nuanced brand of transitional justice, says Mehari Taddele Maru, an Ethiopian research fellow at the NATO Defense College. Advocating justice is one thing; understanding the regional dynamics of peace and local priorities is another. A substantial majority of Africans continue to support the ICC. And why not? Power-hungry politicians and rapacious warlords have claimed millions of innocent victims. The last thing most Africans want is impunity for the perpetrators of such crimes. The world needs an international criminal court. It just needs a better court than this one.

However, when pushed further, he decided that it was not a worthy enough cause to die for and decided to resign. Nelson Mandela surprised everyone, including his defence team, when he boldly told the court in the Rivonia trial that ghting for the rights of his people was an ideal that he hoped to live for and to achieve but if needs be, it was an ideal for which he was willing to die. History the world over is replete with deadly violence as the dening factor for political progress, from conquest to revolutions, world wars, and terrorist attacks. As long as violence can achieve political goals, it has been employed all over the world. However, the frequency with which violence is being employed to achieve political goals in Africa is worrying and requires keen scrutiny. Can there be another overriding catalyst to the violence in the Central Africa Republic, South Sudan,

While popular sentiment were key driving forces inspiring the revolutions and wars of the past, the violence of our day is fuelled by personal political ambition.
Eastern DRC, or even Moyale in Marsabit county of Kenya apart from unbridled individual gain? While popular sentiment such as nationalism and patriotism were key driving forces inspiring the revolutions and wars of the past, the violence of our day is fuelled by personal political ambition devoid of popularly justied sentiments. By labelling violence as ethnic, cultural, religious, terrorist, or interstate, the perpetrator has curiously succeeded in obscuring the real nature and catalyst of todays violence personal gain. While political violence is as old as world history, the driving force of past political violence was societal gain while todays is purely for individual and personal gratication. Herein lies the problem. While international law has recognised this shift in the driving agenda for politi-
cal violence by attempting to identify the persons bearing the greatest responsibility for political violence, this shift still remains disputed by most observers and commentators. The International Criminal Court (ICC) has not helped the matter as it has insisted on using tribe, community, and national labels as exhibits of incriminating evidence against persons it charges for political violence. Even though the ICC suggests that tribal conict in the case of Kenya was employed for purposes of gaining political oce, it does not explain how personal political ambition is the overriding catalyst of politically motivated violence. This typology strengthens the common goal of political violence and concomitantly weakens individual, personal responsibility. Personal gratication has wrested the power to monopolise violence from the state. In Kenya, the violence that rocked the country after the 2007 elections is said to have occurred because state structures were weak and/or unwilling to intervene. This characterisation of the state as weak in the face of violence gives credence to the notion of the power of individual perpetrators usurping the state as the sole holder of monopoly of violence.

Mother tongue use will uplift education standards
Research by linguists shows that when it comes to learning a second language, it is crucial to rst have a solid foundation in ones mother tongue. This shows that several years of mother tongue lead to a better grasp of second language later in life. It is on this basis that I support the Ministry of Educations new directive on vernacular use in lower primary. Those protesting against the directive are not genuine. If we believe English prociency is important for successful participation in the economy, then we surely must embrace mother tongue as a rst language. This is the only way education standards will improve. CARREN CHELANGAT, Nairobi

TALKING POINT
Teacher transfers meant to boost performance, not to punish sta

n the letters page of the Saturday Nation (January 25), Mungai Ngige intimated that the beginning-of-the-year transfers and deployments of headteachers by the Teachers Service Commission are triggered by KCPE and KCSE examinations results. Without any evidence or cogent argument, the writer adds that it is on the basis of the results that headteachers are reshued and others demoted . This misleading perception has probably been the reason why some teachers attempt, often without success, to resist the transfers. From the onset, the commission would like to state that transfers and deployments of heads are not intended to be punitive but meant to improve delivery of educational services to the Kenyan public. They are triggered by several factors, and examination result does not even rank highly among the reasons. First, transfers and deployments become necessary to provide heads for newly-registered schools. Secondly, transfers are carried out to replace heads who may have left service through natural attrition. In other cases, it is necessary to move heads who have overstayed, or those who have requested on account of personal reasons, including poor health. Additionally, transfers and deployments become inevitable in the case of adverse assessment on nancial management or poor performance in the implementation of the curriculum on the part

SHORT TAKES
PRIDE OR SLAVERY?: I live abroad but Im proud of the Kenyan ag. However, the senseless bureaucratic slavery surrounding the ag amazes me. A friend was recently harassed by police in Nairobi for placing the ag on his dashboard. Just a few days ago, some police ocers were reportedly in trouble from their seniors for allowing a church to y the national ag after 6pm. Should we love our country by day and loathe it by night? It is hard to fathom how someones love for his national ag should land him in trouble. JOSEPH OBOK OWITI, Seoul PARTIES CASH: The High Court ruling that only parties which garnered at least ve per cent of the total votes cast in the last general elections should get government funding is welcome. With the already strained economy, the government must not be forced into committing funds to parties that have little, if not negligible, political representation. Such parties are usually formed by greedy persons seeking individual political relevance. It may as well be a good idea to stop registration of new political parties for a while. OMONDI JERRY, Nairobi DUBIOUS PRACTICE: The decision by trac police to mount roadblocks outside popular pubs at night and subject motorists who come out of these joints to blow into a device to gauge their alcohol levels is primitive and should be outlawed. In civilised societies, a motorist is only stopped when one is suspected to be driving under the inuence by either driving too fast or failing to control the car. Many drivers are teetotallers, hence not all motorists should be treated like drunkards. This is humiliating. JUSTIN N NKARANGA, Mombasa CASH GUZZLERS: There are many ways in which monies collected through taxes in Kenya is diverted to causes that are not worthy. We have a horde of nominated county representatives, senators and MPs. Our Constitution allows these nominations because that is what the politicians, not wananchi, wanted. The same Constitution allows the funding of political parties because the politicians wanted it that way. Im sure most Kenyans will agree with me that these nominated leaders serve no purpose other than to draw huge salaries funded by millions of poor Kenyans. GITHUKU MUNGAI, Nairobi
Alcoblow has brought back sanity on roads

Bar owners demands that police suspend the alcoblow are unrealistic. At a time eorts are being put in place to end road carnage, suspending alcoblow will only drag us back. The bar owners are only interested in the prots that their alcohol sales register at the expense of the lives of their customers. Since the re-introduction of the alcoblow, many drivers have been arrested for drink-driving and the use of the device and the subsequent penalties has played a vital role in reducing road carnage. The police must continue using alcoblow to arrest drivers who drive while intoxicated. ODHIAMBO HAROLD, Maseno University

In any case, upon employment teachers commit themselves to serve in any part of the republic where their services are required. The notion that teacher transfers are intended to be punitive must, therefore, be discarded.

This is how rogue school heads con poor parents

Many parents will be surprised at how school principals reach the decision to increase fees. The standard practice is that principals sit with the bursar to draw the budget according to their needs before inviting the school board and PTA executive members to rubber stamp the document. When parents are invited for the annual general meeting, the principal ensures there is a lot of entertainment and refreshments to keep the parents happy. Often, the budget is strategically placed as the last item, it is hurried on the agenda. A few rich parents are usually placed in strategic places to second proposals for enhanced budget, hence it is passed smoothly. This is how they get a blank cheque. CONCERNED PARENT, Nyeri
ance. Signicantly, the bulk of the transfers are carried out at the end of the year to avoid disrupting learning and allow those aected time to settle. Finally, teachers and other stakeholders should rest assured that even in making decisions on deployment, transfer and promotion, the reward system takes into account the nature of school and its learners, performance in co-curricular activities and other social, economic and environmental factors, not just examination results.

Convert State lodges to offices for county governors

State lodges around the country have been left idle throughout all regimes, and this is does not make economic sense. While governors and new county sta are struggling to nd working space and residences, nearly all the State lodges are unoccupied. Some governors have opted to work from old municipal council oces for the time being as they seek better premises. The State residences, which successive regimes like to preserve, have tight security and all other amenities to make them functional. The two former Heads of State rarely used them during their tenure. With the countrys economy going through a rough patch, it would make more sense to convert these State lodges into governors oces and residences. For instance, some facilities can be used as county oces while others can be converted into learning institutions. This would save county governments a lot of money which they could have used to erect residential homes and oces. Continuing to preserve the State lodges is a waste of money while the security personnel manning the premises can be redeployed to northern Kenya and Coast to avert terror threats.

Are football managers doing enough to stem hooliganism?

SAMUEL OWITI: Hooliganism is not a football problem. It is a security matter. LINCOLN KINYUA: Police should use CCTVs to catch these hooligans if football managers have failed to stop them. OMONDI JERRY: Care, however, has to be taken to ensure that the money reaches those who rightfully deserve it. TIMOTHY OKATTA: The football managers have not done anything substantial to stem football hooliganism. ABEL MUHATIA: Repeated scenes of riots after football matches is proof enough that someone is sleeping on his or her job. PATRICK MIANO: Hefty nes should be imposed on both clubs and individuals involved to curb this analogue behaviour. MUIGAI STEVE: Soccer authorities should take stern action to stop hooliganism.

Administration policeman denies extorting cash from buns kiosk

BY NATION REPORTER
An Administration policeman was yesterday charged with extorting money. Sergeant Alex Nganga of Dundori chiefs camp, alongside Mr Maxpaul Ndiba and Mr James Ndungu are said to have obtained a bribe of Sh1,000 from businessman Paul Mwangi on February 3, this year, at Mivii village in Nyandarua county. They are said to have stormed Mr Mwangis bun making kiosk at 5.30pm and demanded the bribe. Mr Ndiba and Mr Ndungu also faced charges of impersonating police ocers. The three denied the charge before Nakuru chief magistrate Samuel Mungai. The magistrate released them on a bond of Sh200,000 each with sureties in similar amount until the hearing date on March 19. Prosecutor Eric Ochieng did not

oppose their release on bond as investigations had been completed. In the same court, a man was charged with obtaining Sh270,000 from a farmer by pretences. Mr Francis Njenga is accused of defrauding Ms Nancy Njeri between December 11, last year, and January 30, this year, at Nakurus Oginga Odinga Street.
Defrauding farmer charge
He denied the charges when he appeared before Mr Mungai. The court was told that Mr Njenga with others obtained the cash claiming that they could sell the complainant 45 litres of a livestock spray. The accused denied committing the oence and was freed on a bond of Sh100,000 and a surety in similar amount. The case will be heard on March 28, this year.

Projects stall as Treasury delays CDF

Nyachae calls for the scrapping of fund saying its against the Constitution
BY NATION TEAM
newsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com
he Treasury has delayed the release of funds for constituencies, threatening to stall vital projects across the country. The board in charge of the Constituency Development Fund yesterday said it had only received Sh5.4 billion (23 per cent) of the Sh23 billion allocated to it this nancial year, adding that the Treasury was yet to respond to its request for more money. Only 177 constituencies out of 290 have received the money leaving others without funds to nance projects. Appearing before the CDF parliamentary committee yesterday, the boards acting chief executive ocer Yusuf Mbuno said they had run out of funds, putting the projects in jeopardy. We do not have more money to disburse to the remaining constituencies, said the chief executive ocer.
The Constitution does not recognise this animal called Constituency Development Fund
Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution chairman Charles Nyachae
said Homabay Town MP Peter Kaluma, a member of the committee, during the meeting held in Protection House Nairobi. Over Sh851 million has not been spent this year. Meanwhile, the Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution chairman Charles Nyachae has said that CDF should be scrapped. The fund violates every aspect of the Constitution, he added. The law only recognises two levels of government that should receive funding from the Treasury the national and county governments. It does not recognise this animal called Constituency Development Fund, he said during a visit to Migori County. He also urged county governments to form a mechanism under a summit to handle conicts between national and county governments.
Illegal fund
The board has also given Sh2 million to 72 constituencies of the remaining 113 to run constituency oces. The other 41 are yet to receive a coin this nancial year. According to Mr Mbuno, the board should have received over Sh10 billion by the end of the second quarter in December. However, the cash has not been transferred. The committee chairman Moses Lessonet asked the boards CEO if he had asked the Treasury to release the remaining allocation. There are several projects which risk stalling because of this delay. This should be sorted out soon. We do not want a situation where projects are left hanging,

Bank to invest Sh1.2b in water supply plan
AND VINCENT AGOYA
n appeal against Mombasa governor Ali Hassan Johos election victory was dealt a blow yesterday after the Supreme Court declared it was premised on a warped interpretation of the law. This means Mr Johos political rival, Suleiman Shahbals case which was pending in Malindi against the Governor and his deputy Hazel Nyamoki, cannot proceed following the verdict delivered yesterday in Nairobi. In the ruling, the court also provided guidelines on ling of election petitions by stating and clarifying that they ought to be led as soon as the results are declared. The court said that the 28-day timeline within which the petitions should be led, strictly commenced as soon as the returning ocer announced the results. The decision which was in respect to an appeal filed by Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho against challenger Mr Shahbal and the electoral commission, was in contrast to the previous position held by the High Court and Court of Appeal that petitions could be led 28 days from date of gazettement. But soon after the ruling, Mr Shahbal issued a press statement saying that although he respected the decision of the court, he did not agree with the outcome. We wish to point out that this sets out a very bad precedent where returning ocers could be bribed or coerced to declare the wrong candidates as winners and set up long, time wasting and expensive court battles, he said.

DISPUTE
Declaration of election results

Section 76 of the Elections Act states: Petitions shall be led within 28 days after the date of publication of the results of the election in the gazette notice. On the other hand, Article 87 (2) of the Constitution states: Petitions concerning an election, other than a presidential election, shall be led within 28 days after the declaration of the election results by the electoral commission. The Supreme Court said: Final declaration of results is by issuance of the certicate in Form 38 to the winner by the returning ocer.

inconsistent, hence the High Court did not have any jurisdiction to hear the petition. While allowing the appeal, Justices Kalpana Rawal, Philip Tunoi, Mohammed Ibrahim, Jackton Ojwang and Njoki Ndungu held that Section 76 was inconsistent with Article 87 of the Constitution, and therefore a nullity. Mr Joho, through his lawyers, argued that Section 76 was inconsistent with Article 87 because it introduced the element of publication of results in the gazette whereas the Constitution simply provided for ling an election petition 28 days after declaration of the results by the IEBC. When the application was argued in the High Court, Mr Justice Fred Ochieng declined to strike out the petition, ruling that Section 76 was inconsistent with Article 87 and recommended an amendment to the either of the two statutes and declined to strike out the petition. Mr Joho then moved to the Court of Appeal and appellate judges Erastus Githinji, Milton Makhandia and Fatuma Sichale also declined to strike out the petition, although they diered with the High Court and stated that the two statutes were not in conict with each other and consequently set aside the ruling order requiring the AG to amend Section 76 or Article 87. Yesterday however, the Supreme Court said that the Court of Appeal judges did not evaluate and consider all provisions of the Constitution and Elections Act and regulations.

Kabogo oers olive branch, asks for forgiveness

Kiambu Governor William Kabogo has extended an olive branch to his political adversaries and asked for forgiveness from those he has wronged. Speaking during an interdenominational prayer meeting at Ruiru town the governor appealed to leaders to join him in serving the cause that brought them to power instead of wasting time in unnecessary squabbles. The governor has been embroiled in a war of words with Thika Town MP Alice Nganga who organised demonstrations against new levies. Ms Nganga had marshalled the support of MPs Kimani Ichungwa of Kikuyu, Mburu Kahangara (Limuru), Kigo Njenga (Gatundu North) andFrancis Kinyua (Juja) and together they had paralysed payment of the newly introduced business levies in all the markets in the county. Mr Kabogo said it was unfortunate for the people of Kiambu to be treated to unnecessary drama every day. The prayers known as Kiambu County Peace Initiative were organised by Ruiru MP Esther Gathogo. They had brought together religious leaders from all churches and mosques in Ruiru constituency to pray for peace. The governor had early last week angered many when he questioned the capacity of unmarried women to oer proper and focused political leadership. Ms Gathogo called on elected leaders in the area to bury their dierences and together serve the public which brought them to power a year ago. She pleaded with leaders in the area to seek Gods leadership and guidance in serving adding that those who fear God would never falter in their quest of serving the public. (KNA)

AND OTIATO GUGUYU

@googooyuh dotiato@ke.nationmedia.com he stage is set for a battle between the Nairobi County Assembly and the Controller of Budget over the setting up of a development fund expected to draw its nancing from the devolved governments coers. The Assembly has threatened to move to court to challenge a directive by Controller of Budget Agnes Odhiambo, that she will not approve such expenses because it was against the Public Finance Management Act Last week, the Assembly passed the Nairobi City County Development Fund Bill, 2014, that authorized the county to set aside ve per cent of
all its revenue to be used in nancing development projects in all the 85 wards in the county. If the Bill passed and signed into law by the Governor, Dr Evans Kidero, is implemented, each of the 85 wards will therefore get Sh16 million. According to the Bill, the revenue is to be used in projects identied by a ward development committee presided over by the areas member of the County Assembly. The commencement date is the next nancial year which starts this July. But Ms Odhiambo threw a spanner into the works by saying she would not approve such expenses when the county presents its budget because it was against the law. Yesterday, Assembly Majority Leader Elias Otieno said they would move to court once the Controller ofcially communicates to the county on the matter. Mr Otieno argued that the Assembly had the right to pass laws it deemed t for development in the county.

I will be meeting Ms Odhiambo to explain this to her, he said yesterday. The communications officer at the Controller of Budget oce, Mr Stephen Wangaji, said Ms Odhiambo was only concerned with the Bill to the extent that it was against the law. Mr Wangaji said there was a conict of interest as the MCAs who passed the law cannot be the same people to preside over the fund. The problem with the Bill is that the same people who passed the bill are the same ones who will preside over the fund which is a conict of interest. They may have to work out a way to ensure it conforms to the Constitution, he said.

Police seek answers to party tragedy

Police are investigating circumstances under which an entire village suered food poisoning symptoms after attending a party in Nyeri County. About 100 residents of Mbuyuini village on Sunday afternoon attended a birthday party for a one-year-old child after which about 60 were rushed to different hospitals with similar symptoms. A 14-year-old boy died after 12 hours of admission while nine were still recuperating at the Mukurwe-ini District Hospital. Food samples obtained from leftovers at the party were taken to Nairobi for further investigations by the government chemist, according to area OCPD George Ouko. A post-mortem test on the deceased had been conducted for toxicology screening to determine possibility of food poisoning. As at now, eight females and one child are in stable condition undergoing treatment while others were discharged yesterday. We may not be able to conrm deliberate acts of poisoning but we welcome theories from members of the public to help us with further investigations, said Mr Ouko. However, speculations suggested that the host family was involved in a land tussle and some people may have been out to harm them. However, police said only the outcome of the tests would shed light on the tragedy.
Bungoma County has begun hiring 2,000 early childhood development teachers. The recruitment, which started yesterday in all the county districts, will be conducted by ocers from the Teachers Service Commission, the county public service board and Knut. Interviews will end tomorrow and those selected will be required to report to their stations from Monday. Governor Ken Lusaka (above) said each of the regions 700 public schools would get at least two teachers.

LAIKIPIA | Those occupying public land ordered to leave
Forest settlers vow to resist eviction

Families insist they have genuine title deeds issued by the government
BY DAVID MACHARIA
@DavidMacharia1 davemash1@gmail.com ore than 10,000 people resident in Marmanet Forest in Laikipias Nyahururu district yesterday said they would resist any attempt to evict them. The Environment, Water and Natural Resource Principal Secretary, Mr Richard Lesiyampe, recently issued an ultimatum ordering all those who have encroached on public forest land to vacate it immediately. Mr Lesiyampe gave the directive in Uasin Gishu County last week in the presence of Kenya Forest Service ofcials. Marmanet is a gazetted forest at the border of Baringo and Nyandarua counties. It was excised during the Kanu regime in the early 1990s and a big section of the forest land, which people were allocated, was never degazetted. Already, the forest settlers have set up schools.

Top scientist mourned by key scholars

Top scholars yesterday paid tribute to distinguished scientist Prof David Wasawo who died on Monday at the Aga Khan Hospital in Nairobi. The 90-year-old had chest problems. Prof Wasawo was described by his peers as one of the greatest intellectuals in the continent. Great Lakes University of Kisumu Vice-chancellor Prof Dan Kaseje, who is also admitted at Aga Khan hospital in Kisumu, said the late Prof Wasawo played a critical role in ensuring the university was awarded charter in 2012 by President Mwai Kibaki. Moi University Chancellor Prof Miriam Were described the late scholar as supportive to younger colleagues in academia. University of Nairobi Vice chancellor Prof George Magoha said Prof Wasawo was exemplary during his tenure as chairman of the governing council at the university between 1998 and 2005. Maseno University Vice chancellor Prof Dominic Makawiti described the late scholar as an academic doyen. ODM leader Raila Odinga and Kisumu senator Anyang Nyongo also mourned Prof Wasawo.

10,000
The government should rst nd out whether we have supporting documents

John Barno, spokesman of the settlers
have developed their land and built permanent houses. While issuing the ultimatum, Mr Lesiyampe said most environmental conservation programmes across the country had been hampered by people who have inhabited forest land and encroached on riparian areas. The principal secretary asked the people who had not vacated forest land to do so voluntarily. However, spokesmen of the Marmanet forest settlers insisted yesterday that they have genuine land ownership documents issued by the government. Mr John Barno and Pastor Stephen Rugwist said the forest settlers held title deeds for the individual parcels of land they occupy. They said they had been living on the land for many years. The government should rst nd out whether we have supporting documents. If the documents are genuine, then the law must be followed to protect our rights, said Mr Barno.

County wants Form One selection stopped

Nyeri governor says students from the region did not get fair share of slots
BY ERIC MUTAI
@Mutai_eric enthiga@ke.nationmedia.com he Nyeri county government has asked the High Court to annul the Form One selection in the area and stop the admission of students in the extra county secondary schools. Governor Nderitu Gachagua(below) also sought for orders directing the Education Cabinet Secretary and the PS to conduct new selection. Through lawyer Wahome Gikonyo, the county government said that the two respondents violated the guidelines for Form One selection and discriminated against students from the county. Only a few students from the
county were admitted to local schools. The number of students from other counties admitted to Nyeri schools is above the 40 per cent prescribed in the selection guidelines, argued Mr Gikonyo. He said that 1,570 students from other regions were admitted to the countys schools and only 320 from Nyeri were admitted to schools outside the county. Mr Gikonyo told Judge James Wakiaga that the selection was against the expectation of residents and students of host districts who he said have contributed money to put up the schools and equip them. There is no logic in 12 students from Nyeri central district joining Nyeri High School and one from Mukurweini joining South Tetu Girls, where the schools are located, he said. Mr Gikonyo told the court the selection was not based on merit adding that two students from other counties who scored 211 and 219 marks in KCPE were admitted in the two high performing schools. He added that no student from the county with such marks was admitted to schools in other counties. Mr Justice Wakiaga summoned the Education Cabinet Secretary and the Principal Secretary to appear in court today.

Agency drafts model laws to guide counties

An agency is drafting model laws that will help counties develop laws that are not in conflict with the Constitution. The laws would guide counties on the possible conict arising from the use of shared resources, said Kenya Law Reform Commission chairman Mbage Nganga. Mr Nganga, who was speaking after officially opening a workshop for county legal ocers at a Naivasha hotel, said the laws being drafted include those on agriculture, environment, animal welfare, education, health services, disaster management and drug control. Counties will be expected to customise their laws based on these models. This will ensure standardisation and a uniform approach in the operation of county governments, he said. The laws would also facilitate eciency in delivery of service at the county level as well as ensuring public participation in decision making at the devolved units.
Procedure for application Interested parties are requested to send their detailed technical & nancial proposals to: mande@agra.org by: February 21, 2014 Full Terms of Reference for this assignment may be obtained from the AGRA website: www.agra.org

Police step up search for abducted boy

Detectives say they are on the trail of kidnapper who is demanding Sh200m ransom
BY DENNIS LUBANGA
@lubangadenno dlubanga@ke.nationmedia.com olice have heightened the search for a sevenyear-old boy kidnapped a few days ago in Eldoret Town. Mehul Patel disappeared ve days ago and the kidnapper is demanding a Sh200 million ransom. The Standard Two pupil at Arya Primary School in Eldoret town is believed to have been kidnapped by a boda boda operator. He is said to have been seized as he waited to be picked up by his mother at lunch time. The boys father, Mr Patel Dhrur, yesterday told journalists that the kidnapper might have colluded with their househelp. My wife informed me while I was at my place of work that our son was missing at school, where she had gone to pick him up, said Mr Dhrur. He said the abductor had been making numerous phone calls to the family demanding the money. The kidnapper called us recently saying he was holding our son and the househelp and that we should send the money immediately before he releases
Pope Francis donates Sh1m to hungry Kenyans

The Pope has donated Sh1 million to starving residents of Turkana and pledged to pray for them. Pope Francis XVI sent the donation through his representative in Kenya Charles Daniel Balvo. The cash will be used by the Catholic Dioceses of Lodwar to buy relief food for the victims and other basic commodities. Addressing the press in his oce on Monday, the dioceses Bishop Dominic Kimengich said Turkana is a food insecure county because of the poor state of the international road connecting Kenya and South Sudan. People eating dog meat, dry skin and drinking contaminated water is an indication that poverty levels are high and food is not accessible is a concern, said Mr Kimengich. He said the church has been supplying all food it receives from its partners across the world. He pointed out that a section of the road from Kitale- Lodwar which is used to transport food has been neglected by the national government. Politicians always promise to tarmac the road during campaigns but they never keep the promise, he added. Traders are forced to increase prices of food due to the bad state of roads, said the Bishop.

Eldoret West police boss Ndungu wa Ikonya said they had identied where the kidnapper was calling from to demand the ransom. We are working round the clock to rescue the boy safely and apprehend the culprit, said Mr Ikonya. He called for patience as detectives conducted investigations. At the same time, the chairman of the Hindu community in Eldoret Town, Mr Deepen Bhatt, asked the police to intensify patrols, especially in West Indies Estate.

Zambia presidency reacts angrily to questions over Satas whereabouts

They will talk about Micheal Sata being sick like if Sata dies, they are going to take over as president, he says
BY MICHAEL CHAWE
NATION Correspondent LUSAKA, Tuesday ambian President Michael Sata today called state broadcaster to battle speculation he was on his way to India to seek medical attention. President Sata, 76, told Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation he was in London engaging investors who could not travel to the southern African nation of 13 million people for one reason or another. Speculation about his health is usually rife whenever he travels overseas. While in the opposition President Sata suered a heart attack. England and India are two different countries and I always move with two doctors, President Sata said during a telephone conversation recorded by Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation and obtained by The Daily Nation in Lusaka. I have been to India once and Im not here for medical purposes. I m here for political businesses nothing else. So those speculations of saying he is sick, they are wasting their time, he said. He added:You know when they have nothing else to say, they would rather talk about the constitution. They will talk about Micheal Sata being sick like if Mr Micheal Sata dies, they are going to take over as president. Local media reports today quoted a strongly worded presidential statement denouncing an opposition leader for questioning President Satas alleged whereabouts. On Friday, the presidents oce announced that Mr Sata would leave the African Union Summit hosted in Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa for a 14day working holiday but did not indicate the destination, although later it said he had arrived in London.

West Africa poll disputes criticised

BY FRANCIS KOKUTSE
NATION Correspondent ACCRA, Tuesday Even though West Africa has succeeded in reducing wanton human rights abuses and violent conicts, disputes associated with electoral processes continue to pose challenges to the region, Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) commissioner for political aairs, peace and security, Mrs Salamatu Suleiman has said. Speaking at an Experts Workshop on the After-Action Review on Mali, she said, these new forms of emerging threats call for a careful review of existing response mechanisms to render them more eective, adding that there was the need for the review and update of ECOWAS legal instruments, particularly those the sections on the Mechanism and the Supplementary Protocol on Democracy and Good Governance. In addition, Mrs Suleiman said, existing regional and national mechanisms tend to emphasise formal conflict management methodologies, thus less focus to local and alternative dispute resolution. Ghanas foreign minister, Miss Hannah Tetteh said, the Malian crisis provided the region with a wake-up call with a mixed bag of experiences, adding that, the people of Mali, ECOWAS, the AU leadership and the world at large deserved commendation for the way they dealt with a conict of such complexity, with national and cross regional dimension. The ECOWAS Mediating Team led by President Blaise Campaore of Burkina Faso and ably supported by the ECOWAS Commission has once more showed the world that African problems are better handled with African solutions, especially when we apply basic international standards of human rights and rule of law with traditional mediation capacity and wisdom, Miss Tetteh added.

The statement said there was need to respect our systems of governance instead of embarrassing ourselves on the international platform through such empty and petty political discourse. Last month, police arrested and charged an opposition leader with defamation, after he compared President Sata to a potato. Mr Frank Bwalya, head of the Alliance for a Better Zambia, allegedly referred to president Sata as Chumbu Mushololwa during a live radio broadcast. The Bemba term literally refers to a sweet potato that breaks when it is bent and is used to describe someone who does not heed advice.

Gunmen kill 30 in central Nigeria attack, say locals

JOS, Nigeria, Tuesday
Gunmen killed about 30 people in an early morning raid on two villages in central Nigeria, witnesses said today, in the latest violence to hit the region. The police in Plateau state, which has been hit by repeated communal violence, confirmed the attack but could not provide details of casualties. One witness, Rufus Gyang, said the attack happened at about 3am and the gunmen started shooting sporadically, killing innocent villagers in their sleep. Nineteen people were killed in Rajat and 11 in Atakar villages, all in the Riyom local government area of the state, he added. More than 60 houses were razed in the attack, while tens of others were injured, he added. Local lawmaker Daniel Dem confirmed the killing and added that two of the victims were security agents deployed to the area. Authorities said last month that ethnic Fulani herdsmen were suspected of killing 34 people in a similar raid. State Information Commissioner Yiljap Abraham said that 34 people were killed, 24 injured and 600 people displaced in the attack by gunmen on Shonong village on January 6. (AFP)

860,000 need food assistance in Somalia, says UN

NAIROBI, Tuesday
Some 860,000 people require urgent humanitarian assistance in Somalia between now and June, with 51, 000 children facing increased risk of death, food security experts said in a joint analysis released today. The joint assessment by the Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit for Somalia (FSNAU), a project managed by UNs Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) shows additional interventions will be required to protect livelihoods and build the resilience of communities against future shocks. The food security condition of over 2 million additional people remains fragile and is classied as Stressed, reveals assessment which was released in Nairobi. This group of households may struggle to meet their own minimal food requirements through mid-2014, and they remain highly vulnerable to shocks that could push them back to food security crisis. The report said, successive seasons of near to above average rainfall in most parts of Somalia, low food prices and continued humanitarian response have brought down the number of people requiring urgent, lifesaving humanitarian assistance from its peak of 4 million during the 2011 famine.

Genocide trial opens against ex-spy ocer

France refused to extradite suspect opting to handle killings case itself
PARIS, Tuesday
4m
The peak crisis once hit
he landmark trial of a former Rwandan army captain charged with complicity in the genocide that left 800,000 dead opened today in Paris, the rst of its kind in France. Hailing it as history being made albeit late Rwandas justice minister welcomed the opening of the trial of Pascal Simbikangwa nearly 20 years after the 100-day genocide shocked the world. The case of Simbikangwa (pictured) who denies all accusations against him is being closely watched in France, which has long been accused of failing to rein in the Rwandan regime at the time of the genocide in 1994. The trial began with an immediate request from Simbikangwas lawyers for the case to be dismissed. One of them, Alexandra Bourgeot, said the case could not be treated fairly because of the inequality of power between the prosecution and defence. Mr Simbikangwas lawyers said they did not have the means to properly defend him and had not even been able to visit Rwanda to verify prosecution evidence. The 54-year-old defendant appeared in court in a wheelchair after a 1986 car accident that left him a paraplegic. He faces life in prison.
Arrested in 2008 on the French Indian Ocean island of Mayotte, he is accused of inciting, organising and aiding massacres during the genocide, particularly by supplying arms and instructions to militia who were manning road blocks and killing Tutsi men, women and children. I was a captain in the Rwandan army then in the intelligence services, Simbikangwa, a small, bald man wearing a brown jacket and white tracksuit bottoms, told the court in a brief opening statement. After his arrest, France refused to extradite him to Rwanda, as it has done in previous cases, and decided to try him under laws that allow French courts to consider cases of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes committed in other countries. Rwandan Justice Minister Johnston Busingye welcomed the opening of the trial. It is history being made. We have always wondered why it has taken 20 years... it is late, but it is a good sign, he said. The trial is expected to last six to eight weeks and, in a rare case for France, will be filmed, with recordings available once the case is concluded. (AFP)

Uganda army winning hearts, minds in circumcision drive

KAMPALA, Tuesday
Ugandan troops have been marking national army week celebrations with a public health drive that includes distributing condoms and circumcising men as part of eorts to battle Aids. There are several activities that we are doing. Among them is medical outreach. The UPDF (Uganda Peoples Defence Force) is a unique army. It is unique is many respects, army spokesman Paddy Ankunda said today. Circumcision is a proven method to reducing the risk of HIV/Aids and we think that by doing that our people will reduce the risk of infection, he told AFP, adding that army doctors have in recent days carried out 330 circumcisions, 630 HIV tests and distributed 43,500 condoms. Scientists have found that male circumcision can signicantly reduce the chances of HIV infection because the foreskin has a higher concentration of HIV-receptors than the rest of the penis and is prone to tears during intercourse, providing for a HIV entry point. We are taking care of the entire procedure. We have installed ourselves in already existing health centres and constructed appropriate facilities, Ankunda said. (AFP)

UN praises relief eorts by Sudan for South Sudanese

Khartoum said it was ready to receive refugees and expressed readiness to help them relocate
KHARTOUM, Tuesday
nited Nations ocials in Sudan have praised the humanitarian efforts exerted by the local authorities to shelter and feed South Sudanese refugees and oered to support its work, as they are not directly involved in the relief operation. Since the beginning of the armed conict in South Sudan last December, Sudan said it was ready to receive South Sudanese refugees and expressed willingness to provide them with the needed humanitarian support, before they move to settle in its different regions without restriction. However Sudanese ocials said they will not allow the establishment of refugees camps, saying they learnt from Darfur experience that such sites can be easily transformed into basis of political activities.
In addition, only local aid groups are allowed to manage transitional camps in the border states. In a joint statement yesterday, UN resident and humanitarian coordinator, Ali Al-Zatari and the head of UN refugees agency UNHCR in Sudan, Angela Li Rosi welcomed the commitment of the Government of Sudan to provide international protection and humanitarian assistance to South Sudanese.

US ambassador to Russia to leave early

Michael McFaul, the outspoken US ambassador to Russia who has frequently clashed with authorities in Moscow, said on Tuesday he would leave the country after just two years. An embassy spokeswoman conrmed the diplomat was leaving Russia early but declined to comment further. Soon after the Olympics, I plan to rejoin my family in California, Mr McFaul wrote on his blog. (AFP)
castaway who says he survived 13 months adrift in the Pacic said today he thought about suicide but was sustained by dreams of eating his favourite food tortillas and reuniting with his family. Fisherman Jose Salvador Alvarenga also described being forced to dump the body of his teenage companion overboard when he starved to death, but said his own strong religious faith helped as he drifted some 12,500 kilometres from Mexico to the Marshall Islands. I didnt want to die of starvation, he told AFP through a Spanish interpreter at Majuro Hospital, where he is recuperating
after being found disoriented last Thursday at a remote coral atoll. There were times I would think about killing myself. But I was scared to do it, he added, raising his arm, pointing to heaven and declaring: God! Faith! The stockily built Alvarenga looked in remarkably good physical shape when he arrived in the Marshalls capital Majuro ve days after landing on the remote Ebon Atoll. Sporting a bushy beard and with his hair bleached a ginger colour by the sun, he was helped down the gangplank by a male nurse but he did not appear to have chapped lips, blistered skin or other signs of severe exposure. He looked better than one would expect, US ambassador Thomas Armbruster said on Monday after acting as an interpreter for the Marshallese authorities. However, extraordinary feats of survival are not uncommon in the
Feats of survival
Pacic. Three Mexicans washed up in the Marshalls in 2006 after nine months adrift. Speaking from hospital Mr Alvarenga said: My dream for over a year is to eat a tortilla, chicken and so many other types of food. I would imagine and dream a lot about my family my mother and my father, he said. Mr Alvarenga said he was not married but has a daughter named Fatima. His parents feared he had been killed. Thank God he is alive. We are overjoyed... I just want him here with us, his mother Maria Julia Alvarenga told CNN in his homeland El Salvador, whose government says it is working with Mexico to bring him home. Mr Alvarenga said he set out on a one-day shing expedition in late December 2012 with a
teenager named Xiguel, when they became lost in their sevenmetre breglass boat. We had just nished a day of shark shing when the motor died. I couldnt get a radio signal, and meanwhile there was a wind that pushed us further out. The 37-year-olds mood darkened as he described how the boy, who he says was aged 15-18, died four months into their voyage, unable to survive on a diet of raw bird esh, turtle blood and his own urine. He couldnt keep the raw food down and he kept vomiting, Alvarenga said. I tried to get him to hold his nose and eat but he kept vomiting. He said the teenager died of starvation and he pushed his body into the ocean. What else could I do? (AFP)

Ukraine president mulls early polls

Crisis has sparked tensions with the West which is considering sanctions
KIEV, Tuesday
krainian President Viktor Yanukovych could call early elections to end mass anti-government unrest, a top lawmaker told AFP today, as protest leaders demanded curbs to presidential powers in a stormy parliamentary debate. EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton meanwhile was set to arrive in Kiev to press for a resolution, as Europe and the United States discussed a possible nancial aid package to Ukraine in exchange for democratic reforms. Ukraines protests erupted in November after Mr Yanukovych rejected a key EU pact in favour of closer ties with Moscow, and the turmoil has now become an all-out movement to oust him. The opposition pressed for concessions at a parliament session in which world champion boxer turned protest leader Vitali Klitschko called for an end to the dictatorship.

State opts not to inject fresh capital in KenGens cash call
The government will instead convert what the power generator owes it to equity
BY ZEDDY SAMBU
zsambu@ke.nationmedia.com he government will not inject fresh capital in KenGen during the planned rights issue, Energy Cabinet Secretary Davis Chirchir has said. Instead, the state, which holds a 70 per cent stake in the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE)-listed rm, will convert part of a debt that KenGen owes the government into equity. At the moment the electricity generator owes the government a total of Sh27 billion. We will propose to the Cabinet to allow government to convert its debt to equity, Mr Chirchir said in an interview. At an annual general meeting held in December, shareholders approved a proposal to raise Sh15 billion through a rights issue and an additional Sh15 billion through debt. To keep a hold of its 70 per cent stake, the government needs to inject about Sh11 billion. The rights issue is planned to be concluded before June. The equity we are looking to raise needs to come in before we borrow. We could also invite a strategic investor, said KenGen managing director, Mr Albert Mugo. The money will be used to fast-rack its multibillion shilling projects in power production. A consortium led by Barclays, Dyer and Blair Investment Bank, KPMG and law rm Hamilton Harrison & Mathews currently arranging a Sh430 billion ($5 billion) through bonds and loans will shepherd the cash call. Among the projects lined up are two coal plants at Lamu and Kituis Mui Basin area, the grand 280MW geothermal project and some 100MW

Push for measures to cut cost of building

BY NATION REPORTER
The government has been asked to put in place measures to address the scarcity of aordable housing in Kenya as it prepares the 2014/ 2015 budget Speaking during a public prebudget hearing hosted by the Institute of Economic Aairs in Nairobi, stakeholders asked the authorities to introduce legislative changes to spur domestic savings and to cut building costs. Housing materials are expensive. We need to address the high costs of such products as cement for Kenyans to gain access to cheaper housing, said IEA chief executive, Mr Kwame Owino. Kenya Property Developers Association chief executive, Ms Robyn Emerson, asked the Treasury to be clear on vatable goods

Why the rights issue is crucial

Date. KenGens 1400MW Olkaria I and IV plants will be commissioned in March under a phased programme to be scaled up to 280MW later in July. Demand: Current national peak power demand stands at 1,800MW against KenGens installed capacity of 1 250MW. Current output Total power capacity will shoot up three times to 5,400MW in the next ve years and lead to a 40 per cent reduction in the cost of power. KenGen says it will produce half of these output
reduction in the cost of power within three years, said Mr Chirchir At US5 cents per kilowatt hour, hydro-generation is the cheapest source of power closely followed by geothermal (US7 cents/kwh) which compared to thermal costs, is ve times expensive at US36 cents per unit of power. KenGens stock has declined by 26 per cent since the beginning of the year to trade at Sh12.60 apiece at yesterdays trading from last Decembers high of Sh17. Analysts are cautious about performance in the short-term. The search for additional capital may have a positive impact on the share price which has been declining. The share has now picked momentum with the news of additional capital and change of management, said Ms Agnes Achieng, research analyst at Sterling Capital.

and services in the industry. Despite reforms in the Value Added Tax (VAT) law last year, she said, there remains a lot of ambiguity in the industry. Further, she said, property buyers are paying more as developers oset the costs associated with the slow pace of land reforms. Ms Emerson asked the government to boost allocations made to the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development as well as the Lands Commission in order to address these issues. Developers are interacting with a ministry that is not able to carry out its functions optimally, said Ms Emerson. Zimele Asset Managers, on the other hand, noted that reforms need to be effected to make it easier for Kenyans to save to build homes.
of wind power near the border of Meru and Isiolo counties. Overall, the power rm seeks to generate an extra 700 units of power within three years with the Olkaria geothermal plant set to be completed by the second quarter of 2014. Current peak power demand is 1,800MW against KenGens installed capacity of 1,250MW with additional energy obtained from the costlier diesel-powered generators, which currently account for a quarter of the electricity production market. Under an ambitious programme, the government seeks to add 5,000 megawatts of mainly geothermal, coal and Liqueed Natural Gas energy to the national grid to cut use of the
costly diesel engines. We plan to double the installed capacity and aim for a 40 per cent
Nigerian bank targets Kenyan oil and gas sectors

Guaranty Trust Bank has formally launched its banking operations in the country, after acquiring a controlling stake in Fina Bank last year. The West African-based nancial institution seeks to leverage on its vast global experience to penetrate the local banking industry while targeting the nascent oil and gas sectors. In ve years, we should be next to the six top tier banks in the country and break into the oil and gas sector, said the banks group chief executive ocer, Mr Segun Agbaje at a press conference yesterday. He said the rst step will be to increase branch network as the ones formally owned by Fina Bank are too few to realise the projected growth. The Nigerian lender last year reached an agreement to acquire a 70 per cent stake in the then privately-owned Fina Bank Limited at Sh8.6 billion. Before the deal, Fina Bank had total assets of $338 million with 38 branches across Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda. GT Bank intends to leverage on this network to reach the wider East Africa market. We want to build more branches to achieve a balanced cost to income ratio and strengthen our balance sheet, said Mr Agbaje adding that they will be injecting Sh2.5 billion into the venture.

Providing more leeway in marketing bound to earn growers more, says association
BY MWANIKI WAHOME
@mwanikiwahome jwahome@ke.nationmedia.com oee marketing should be further liberalised so farmers can get better returns, an Ugandan coffee trader said yesterday. Director of African Fine Coees Association, Mr Robert Nsibirwa, said Kenyan farmers were desperate due to poor returns. The regulators think the Kenyan farmer is the least intelligent in the world. Some farmers are abandoning coee farming, said the Ugandan. The regulator is the Coee Board of Kenya. Speaking at Strathmore Business School during a forum on revitalising the industry, Mr Nsibirwa said liberalisation of marketing in Uganda had given farmers a say on how they are paid. He said Ugandas coee produc-
Traders scramble for meagre sh catch from a boat at Chuoye beach, Homa-Bay County. The falling stocks are inadequate to supply the ever-rising demand, resulting in shermen increasing prices.
SUGGESTIONS The observation by Mr Nsibirwa comes against the backdrop of plans by counties to sell their own coee, sidestepping multinationals that dominate the market. Most coffee in Kenya by small-scale farmers is sold through coee societies at the Nairobi Coee Exchange. The global rms have vowed to resist the move by six counties Nyeri, Kirinyaga, Muranga, Meru, Kiambu and Embu to jointly sell their produce. This promises to radically change cofee marketing but is opposed by dealers.

Lenovo shares take a fall in Hong Kong

Stake plummets 14 per cent after deal to buy struggling Motorola for $2.91 billion last week
HONG KONG, Tuesday hares in Chinese technology giant Lenovo slumped more than 14 per cent in Hong Kong today, after it agreed to buy struggling handset maker Motorola from Google for $2.91 billion. The rm dived 14.31 per cent to HK$8.62 by the break, following a more than eight per cent slump on Thursday before the market closed for the Lunar New year holiday. Wednesdays deal which came a week after Lenovo bought IBMs low-end server business for $2.3 billion has spooked investors worried about Motorolas protability. The benchmark Hang Seng Index was down 2.38 per cent, in line with a regional sell-o after heavy losses on Wall Street sparked by weaker-thanexpected US manufacturing data. People dont think it will be worth it to pay such a large amount of money to acquire Motorola, Core Pacic Yamaichi research analyst Felix Kwok told AFP. In 2013 Lenovo become the worlds biggest PC maker, eight years after buying IBMs PC business. However, investors do not think the Motorola brand is strong enough to boost Lenovo, Kwok said, adding that the handset maker has been on a downward trend for the past two years. Everyones worried about whether or not Lenovo would be able to turn Motorola from a loss to a prot in the short term, Tanrich Securities vice president Jackson Wong told AFP. Even under Google, Motorola failed to gain traction in a rapidly evolving smartphone market now dominated by South Koreas Samsung and United States-based Apple. Googles inability to make Motorola protable has sparked doubts about Lenovos capacity to turn the handset maker around, Wong said, adding that there were also worries about how it would fund the purchases.

Toyota in high gear over good prot

TOKYO, Tuesday Toyota has shifted into high gear, with the worlds largest car maker tipping a record annual prot after more than doubling its nine-month earnings to $15 billion thanks to the yens sharp decline and surging sedan sales.

The trio have been big winners over the past year as a sharp drop in the yen inated exporters repatriated prots boosted by improved overseas demand in key markets including the United States and China. Sales in China fell o a cli in late 2012 and into last year as a TokyoBeijing diplomatic row sparked a consumer boycott of Japanese brands in the worlds biggest vehicle market. Relations remain tense, but Japanese manufacturers have reported sales are returning to pre-spat levels. (AFP)

The pay rise dilemma

You are on the same job, but you feel that the salary you are being paid is no longer satisfactory. Do you peruse the vacancy pages in the presence of your boss to send signals so that you may be enticed with a pay hike to stay? Alternatively, do you discuss issues around your pay loudly with colleagues with the hope that your boss gets to hear and pick the hint? Or do you confront your boss with inflation statistics and then place a stiff demand? Although there is no standard method of asking for a pay hike while you are on the job, there is consensus among experts that you need to adopt a sober and mature approach to requesting for one. You need to lay the groundwork first, to circumvent any possible hard stance. A way to do this is to either ensure you consistently perform above par, and therefore use this as your bargaining chip, or ask for more work followed by a request for increased salary. Do this face to face, rather than through email or office memo. This means you need to request an appointment with your manager, and then state your case by seeking from your boss, the opportunities and options available for earning a better pay package. This approach is likely to subsequently roll out a friendly discussion, and hopefully, a fruitful one to your favour.

Star players deliver fth win in six matches for rampant champions

Ireland, Wales in grudge Six Nations tie

Paris Frances thrilling 26-24 win over England gave the Six Nations a scintillating start but next Saturdays match between Ireland and two-time defending champions Wales promises to really heat up the tournament as one nation looks to settle a score. Pretty much the whole of Ireland even those orientated towards Gaelic Games will down tools on Saturday and be willing their team to deliver a hammer blow to Wales coach Warren Gatlands hopes of an unprecedented third successive Six Nations title. Gatland, a former Ireland coach to boot, has become a pantomime villain in Ireland since he dared to drop Irish legend Brian ODriscoll from the British and Irish Lions side for the third and decisive Test against Australia last June. While the Lions won the game and the series, justifying Gatlands selection, it still rankled with the normally diplomatic ODriscoll a few months later. Yes, theres resentment, of course, ODriscoll said last September. Is he (Gatland) on the Christmas card list? Unlikely. When youre left with disappointment that way, you cant but feel a little bit of resentment. Memorable experience Both Ireland and Wales got o to winning starts at home at the weekend the Irish eventually easing to a 28-6 win over a hapless Scotland while the Welsh had a scare or too before beating Italy 23-15. One of Irelands three try scorers against the Scots, Rob Kearney, making his 50th appearance for his country a memorable one, had no doubts about what the atmosphere will be like come the match. Yes, there will be added spice, said the 27-year-old, referring to how ODriscolls dropping would impact on the game. Kearney, who along with brother and wing Dave earned praise for their performances against Scotland from coach Joe Schmidt, also inferred Gatlands harping on about Wales being in line to become the rst side to win three successive Six Nations titles.

A three-pointer and a driving hook shot by Wade stretched Miamis lead to 100-85 with 3:41 remaining, and an 11-2 scoring run to nish the game by Detroit wasnt enough. Following a nice showing against the New York Knicks on Saturday, Wade was simply brilliant in 37 minutes, hitting 68 percent of his shots while grabbing 10 rebounds and dishing out ve assists. It was Wades second 30-point outing of the season.
Double gures
LeBron James was sensational in the win, as well, and nished two rebounds shy of a triple-double with a line of 24 points (9-of-19 shooting), 11 assists and eight rebounds. Chris Bosh was the only other Heat player to nish in double gures and poured in 17 points on 5-of-8 shooting while hauling in seven rebounds. The Pistons were dominant on the glass from start to nish, edging out Miami by seven rebounds total and nine on the oensive boards, but their oense sputtered thanks to a regular dose of long-range jumpers and too many unforced errors.

Tendulkar receives Indias highest honour

New Delhi
Indias President Pranab Mukherjee has presented the countrys highest civilian honour, the Bharat Ratna, to cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar (left) quit international cricket in November following Indias win over the West Indies in a Test in Mumbai. Tendulkar is the rst sportsman to win the award and - at 40 - the youngest. Previous recipients include Indias first PM Jawaharlal Nehru, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela and former PMs Rajiv and Indira Gandhi. The award is made on a recommendation by the prime minister to the president. President Mukherjee presented the honour to Tendulkar and leading scientist Prof CNR Rao at a ceremony at Delhis presidential palace - or Rashtrapati Bhavan - on Tuesday morning. I will continue to bat for India even though cricket has stopped, Tendulkar said after receiving the award. Tendulkar had dedicated the honour to his mother Rajni when he was nominated for it hours after he announced his retirement last year. Tendulkar bowed out of international cricket after his 200th Test match - 24 years and one day after his rst. (BBC)

GOLF | He becomes third Kenyan to play in a European Tour event
Andersen makes Joburg Open list

Going by pre-qualifying round, he stands a good chance of making the second round cut
BY LARRY NGALA
@LarryNgala lngala@ke.nationmedia.com outh African-based Kenyan golfer Stefan Andersen will be in the starting list for tomorrows rst round of the European Tour sanctioned Johannesburg Open at the Royal Johannesburg and Kensington East Golf courses. Andersen, who lives in Pretoria, South Africa, is one of the eight players who prequalied for the 1,300,000 euro (Sh152.1 million) event which is part of the seven tournaments sanctioned by the European Tour international in South Africa. During the pre-qualifying event at the Royal Johannesburgs Kensington West course, Stefan shot a brilliant round of four under par 67 on the course which is usually a par 72. However, he was reduced to par 71 after the last hole having made a par four instead of par ve. Six players had tied and had to go for a play o to ll in three slots. Stefan made it along Englands Andrew Marshall and Germanys Torben Baumann, who had also shot four under par 67. been in the European Tour before and Baumann won a qualifying Tour School two years ago, Andersen said. The player also pre-qualied for the Mandela Championship in December though he missed the cut by two shots. During the pre-qualifying round Andersen played a clean front nine which included birdies over the second, third, and fth for a three under 33. At the back nine, Andersen made two back to back birdies at the 11th and 12th and was destined for a bogey-free six under until he dropped a shot at the par four-17th for a 67. This left h i m j u s t two shots from the joint leaders Louis Caltz and Drikus van der Walt, who were among seven South Africans to make it to the main event. At least 91 players participated in the event. Andersen became only the third Kenyan professional to pre-qualify for a European Tour event. The rst one was Anil Shah who qualied for the South Africa Open, the worlds second oldest open besides the British Open, in 2004 while veteran pro Elisha Kasuku qualied for the British Seniors Open, a European Seniors Tour in 2005. However both Anil and Kasuku could not make it to the money list. A Kenyan ag will be raised high at the Johannesburg Open in honour of Stefan Andersen who, going by his pre-qualifying round, stands a good chance of making the second round cut. A number of leading professionals including former Kenya Open champion Andre Bossert of Switzerland failed to make it to the Johannesburg Open which follows the South Africa Open, Alfred Dunhill Championship, Nelson Mandela Championship and the Volvo Championship held from November to January. Two more European Tour events namely Africa Open in East London and the Tshwane Open will take place later this year.

Anil leads Mini Masters by two shots

BY LARRY NGALA
lngala@ke.nationmedia.com Muthaiga Golf Clubs Anil Shah increased his lead to four shots in the 3rd PGK Mini Masters at the par 72 Royal Nairobi Golf Club yesterday. He shot a round of two under par 70 in the second round of the Sh200,000 event to take his aggregate to six under par 138 and four shots ahead of Greg Snow. Shah dropped a shot at the fth hole, a par four after going one under at the par ve-second. He however parred the rest of the holes to level the nine and bogeyed the par three-13th at the back nine after picking up a birdie at the 12th. Anil however birdied the two long holes (14th and 15th) to come in with a two under par 34 that made his days 70. My game is perfect though I have not had enough time to practise. I must thank the management at Muthaiga in particular chairman Edwin Kinyua for his support in these events, Anil said. I believe my game is shaping up very well for the Kenya Open, he added. Snow on the other hand shot one over par 73 after a poor start at the front nine where he carded ve over par 41, a nine which included a triple bogey at the second hole and three single bogeys elsewhere on the nine. However, Snow made a tremendous recovery at the back nine where he birdied the 10th, 14th, 15th and 16th for a low back nine 32. Snows two rounds total of 142 saw him tying in second place with Railways John Wangai who shot three under 69 to also wind up the day with 142. Wangai is fresh from his seven under par 65 in the Eastern Flour Mills event at his home club, His bogey-free round included three birdies while two others tied on 144 and they include home pro Hesbon Kutwa who red two under par 70 with four birdies, an eagle and two bogeys and a double bogey in the last hole to tie with David Opati who carded one over par 73 for 144. Next to Opati and Kutwa was David Odhiambo from Nyanza Golf Club who shot 75.

Kiplagat wins Moscow race

@AyumbaAyodi sayodi@ke.nationmedia.com The 2011 World 1,500 silver medalist Silas Kiplagat all but presented his case for a place in Kenyas team for the World Indoors when he won his speciality at the Russian Winter Indoor Meeting in Moscow at the weekend. But its the performance of reigning World Indoor 800m champion Pamela Jelimo, who was making a comeback after nine months, that cast doubts whether she is ready to defend her title in a months time. Athletics Kenya vice president David Okeyo said they will name the teams for the World Indoor Championships slated for March 7-9 in Sopot, Poland and World Half Marathon scheduled for March 29 in Copenhagen, Denmark, next week. World leading time Kiplagat clocked 3:35.85 for a world leading time nishing ahead of his compatriot Bethwell Birgen posted a time of 3:36.10. Less than a second separated the rst four nishers. Kiplagats time was only 0.66 seconds shy of Burundian Venuste Nyongabos meet record set way back in 1996. Kenyas Collins Cheboi and Ethiopias Aman Wote were third and fourth with times of 3:36.41 and 3:36.45 respectively. Kiplagat finished sixth during the 2012 World Indoor Championships in Istanbul, Turkey. The 2008 Olympic champion, Jelimo trailed in sixth out of eight runners in the A race over four laps, nishing in a poor 2:11.29. The race was won by Marina Arzamasova of Belarus.

AK on the spot over World Relays

Athletes are questioning bodys intention to hire foreign coaches ahead of inaugural championships
BY AYUMBA AYODI
@AyumbaAyodi sayodi@ke.nationmedia.com enya could send a weak team to the inaugural World Relay Championships set for May 24-25 in Bahamas due to poor preparations. Some sprints and middle distance runners have decried inadequate preparations ahead of the event with most of them expressing displeasure at plans by Athletics Kenya to hire coaches from abroad. The coaches, who have quietly expressed their displeasure after AK boss Isaiah Kiplagat revived plans to recruit a Technical Director from abroad, have also complained about being ignored by the body. One of Kenyas top sprinters, who sought anonymity for fear of victimisation, disclosed that AK should have shortlisted all the probables for the World Relay and perhaps put them in a camp or give them a programme under specic sprint and middle distance coaches. That should have happened as early as January before the start of Relays and Sprints Series, said the athlete. Right now, AK doesnt even know where some of our top sprinters such as Mike Mokamba and Alphas Kishoyan are. The athlete said the Relays and Sprints Series should mark the pinnacle of their performance and not a place for trial and error. We should go into these series when we are on form, said the sprinter. Another middle distance athlete said AK has no respect, especially for local sprint coaches and that is why nobody bothered to apply for the Technical Directors job.
Trial and error
While its imperative Kenya has a qualied sprints coach, what has AK done to improve the standards of the current local coaches? posed the athlete. However, AK chief executive ocer Isaac Mwangi said they are right on time as far as preparations for the World Relays are concerned. AK vice president David Okeyo said their programme rolls out this weekend with selections of the probables in ve events that will be done at Kenya Prisons grounds, Nairobi. Okeyo called on all athletes in 100m, 2000m, 400m, 800m and 1,500m to avail themselves for the exercise. We shall not run the relays but straight events, said Okeyo, adding that the proper Relay probables selections will be held on February 22 at the same venue. Mwangi said the recruitment process for a Technical Director is well underway after having received applications from England, United States, Jamaica and France. We shall start the vetting process next week. Interested local coaches can also apply, Mwangi said. Okeyo said the Technical Directors job was a proposal by AK President hence he wasnt ready to talk about it. The AK President is said to be currently out of the country.
EPL clinic for local coaches

The project, which is a brainchild of the EPL and the British Council and other local partners, saw several local top tier league coaches attend the day-long seminar. The training aspects involved the practical lessons where the tacticians are trained on the pitch as well as getting a chance to test their skills by replicating their lesson to a group of youth volunteers. Speaking at the event, EPL Chief Executive Richard Scudamore said: This phase of Premier Skills is an exciting and important one for the coach educators as it prepares them to pass on what they have learnt to others and develop a new generation of football coaches in the country. British Council Country Director Tony Reilly, also graced the occasion said the aim of the programme is to use the unique power of sport to develop leadership skills among the youth as well as address other challenges in the community. Mohammed Mwajirani, a Mombasa based coach educator said he was thrilled to have beneted from the course as it will help him upgrade his skills.

The British Beer and Pubs Association (BBPA) had asked the interior ministry to push back closing time from 11.00pm to 01.00am to take account of the time dierence for Englands opening game against Italy on June 14. It also asked for an extra two hours on July 11 and 12, the weekend of the nal. intention would be that pubs would be able to be open for the relevant games, reecting the fact that it is a major national event, said a spokesman from Camerons Downing Street oce. A Home Oce spokesman added: Given the time dierence between the UK and Brazil and the fact some matches kick o at 11pm, the consultation will cover late-night matches occurring on the opening weekend, the closing weekend of the World Cup 2014 and for Englands 11pm matches.

Hooligans will surely strike again

n what was meant to be the leagues curtain raiser, the Kenyan football fraternity was at the weekend treated to yet another circus of violence, wanton destruction of property and social anarchy - executed with impunity during the Kenya Power Charity Cup. No sooner had fans and distinguished guests settled down than the dreaded gang of stone throwing hoodlums turned Nyayo National Stadium into a erce battle ground. Running battles that began shortly after AFC Leopards were knocked out of the competition by Mathare United intensified after Gor Mahia fell behind to Sofapaka in the second match to the delight of spiteful Ingwe fans who were still inside the stadium. At one point, marooned SuperSport TV crew were forced to cower for safety as missiles ew in all directions while gasping for air under clouds of tear gas. It took forever for some semblance of sanity to be restored. B y the time, the SuperSport crew had seen enough and cut o live transmission pronto. Its ironical that although Gor and Leopards didnt clash on the eld of play, their fans were the source of trouble on the terraces. The fact that the two set of fans found their way past each others territory was, in fact, a violation of stadium security guidelines that enforce segregation of fans during such big matches. Article 61 (1) of the world football governing body rules governing stadium security states: The relevant authorities have the right to impose a stadium ban or other sanctions and take necessary legal action against any identied person(s) whose behaviour either inside the stadium or outside the stadium aects or poses a threat to the safety and security of the event or to other people. Three days later, perpetrators have neither been identied nor apprehended. But more disturbing is the studious silence that the local football authorities have maintained. A bad precedence has been set for the new season which kicks o in less than two weeks time. A recurrence of the same during the season is almost a certainty. What shame!

CHELSEA LAY DOWN THE MARKER WITH VICTORY | Ivanovics vicious rst half strike silences home team
How Mourinho destroyed Fortress Etihad

Portuguese manager conquers City but insists his side is the little horse in title race
London helsea deed Manchester Citys scintillating home form with a superb 1-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium on Monday that injected fresh intrigue into the Premier League title race. Imperious in recent weeks, City were looking to reclaim top spot from Arsenal and move six points above Chelsea, but it was the visitors who prevailed thanks to a 32nd-minute bullet by Branislav Ivanovic. City had won all 11 of their previous home league games this season, losing only to European champions Bayern Munich on home turf, while it was the rst time they had failed to score at the Etihad in the league since November 2010. The hosts had been seeking a ninth successive league win, but instead Jose Mourinhos Chelsea were left to celebrate a home-and-away double, having beaten City 2-1 at Stamford Bridge in Octobers reverse xture. Chelsea also hit the woodwork on three occasions, but Ivanovics vicious strike proved enough as they moved
level on points with City, two points shy of leaders Arsenal. Mourinho later described his side as the little horse in the Premier League title race despite their impressive success. Asked if the duel for the title was a three-horse race, he replied: Two horses and a little horse, that still needs milk and to learn how to jump. A horse that next season can race. Enjoyed majority of possession When it was put to him that Chelsea at the very least stood a chance of winning the league, he replied: I dont agree. We lost points at home against West Brom, against West Ham, we lost at Stoke, we lost at Newcastle. We are a team in evolution, but this is the kind of performance that helps the team to grow up a lot. Tactically, mentally, I think it was fantastic. City had won all 11 of their previous home games in the league, scoring 42 goals, and had won 17 of their 18 matches at the Etihad in all competitions, losing only to European champions Bayern Munich in the Champions League. They enjoyed the majority of possession against Chelsea, but it was the visitors who possessed the greater cutting edge. Having weathered early pressure from the home side, Chelsea took the lead in the 32nd minute when Serbian defender Ivanovic bludgeoned home a low drive and the visitors went on to hit the woodwork on three occasions. Citys preparations were upset by the loss of Brazilian holding midelder Fernandinho to injury, with Argentine centre-back Martin Demichelis proving an unsteady replacement. The hosts were also without midelders Samir Nasri and Javi Garcia and top scorer Sergio Aguero due to injury, and manager Manuel Pellegrini felt that their absences were telling. Of course, (Fernandinho) is a very important player for us, he said. (AFP)
MATCH NOTES
19TH CENTURY GAME
Joses jibe returned with interest

Jose Mourinho has been talking about 19th-century football recently, and you have to go back almost that far to nd when Manchester City last won nine league games in a row, which was in 1912 a record they were trying to equal on Monday night. The Chelsea boss was referring to West Ham after last weeks goalless draw at Stamford Bridge. The City fans simply threw it back at him after Chelseas cautious start. Are you West Ham in disguise? they sang.
SAMBA HEARTBREAK
Fernando misses cue as injury strikes

Fernandinho had gone public with his pleas for Luiz Felipe Scolari to watch this game as he went up against Ramires, Willian and David Luiz, all hoping to win a place in Brazils World Cup squad. But Citys 30million midelder was ruled out by a muscle injury, and so Manuel Pellegrini, already without Javi Garcia, had to push centre back Martin Demichelis into mideld with Yaya Toure.

HERES WHAT THE BRITISH PAPERS SAID OF THE GAME
WORKING HARD
There was no parked bus by Chelsea; Mourinho left the handbrake o and it rolled down over City
Stu Brennans match report for M.E.N Sport: There was no parked bus by Chelsea; Mourinho left the handbrake o and it rolled down and over City in the rst half. They defended in numbers, hunted the ball in packs, pressing high, and also countered in numbers, pouring forward. Henry Winter, Telegraph: City, in stark contrast, looked like a side that had forgotten they had scored four goals or more on 14 dierent occasions this season. They badly missed Sergio Agero and Fernandinho but their shortcomings were considerable and a jolting night has heavy consequences for Manuel Pellegrinis side. Daniel Taylor, The Guardian: Unfortunately for Demichelis, at times in the rst half he was the proverbial shire horse sent out on the gallops with the chasers. The margins are so ne in these kind of games, when every shortcoming is exposed ruthlessly and every match-up nely balanced. He was found wanting. Chelsea absorbed all the City attacks they could which was by no means all of them - and then hit City hard on the counter. Sam Wallace, Independent: This team can be beaten. This team have weaknesses. That was Mourinhos message for the masses. Chelseas performance was an invitation for others to do the same, to get at Citys defence, to place obstacles in the path of that all-conquering mideld. What Mourinho proved was that if a coach can cause City as many problems as they are causing him, they are vulnerable. Martin Samuel, Daily Mail: Had Negredo, in the one moment he showed up, hit the target, had Toure got on the end of a move of the season contender which ended with Aleksandar Kolorav whistling through the six-yard box, had Silva swept in, rather than wide, from a Toure run and cross, it might, might, have been dierent. But even when they were on the ropes, Chelsea were counter-punching with power and penetration, a footballing equivalent of Muhammad Alis rope-a-dope tactic against George Foreman in the Rumble in the Jungle. Martin Lipton, Mirror: This was no smash-and-grab tactical raid by Mourinho either, as his side hit the woodwork three times through Samuel Etoo, Neamanja Matic and Gary Cahill. They could, and should, have won by a greater margin.
Micahs hard tness regime continues

Micah Richards will have core-tness tests this week to be t for City as they chase four trophies. The right back has had injury concerns over the past 18 months, most recently a hamstring strain. He returned in the 4-2 win over Watford in the FA Cup on January 25 but made way for Vincent Kompany at halftime. He missed Monday nights game, but could be t for Saturdays visit to Norwich.

enyans are yet to see the face of the digital government with more than half of ministry websites inaccessible, almost a year after Jubilee came to power. Besides the fuss of Twitter handles and Facebook pages operated by social media experts on behalf of some key government officials, a lot remains to be done to ease access to information by the public. A survey by the Nation yesterday showed that only eight out of the 18 ministries had working websites, with a smaller number showing proof of regular updates. The remaining 10 displayed an error message with attempts to refresh the pages bearing no fruit.
It is the irony of a government that ascended to power marketing itself as the digital team comprising young and tech-savvy leaders. It is true there are issues with most government ministries websites. Most of them are not accessible and those accessible are not in the best condition. This is something we realised last year and the process of overhauling them is almost complete, Mr Vic-

tor Kyalo, the acting chief executive ocer of the Information, Communication and Technology Authority (ICTA) said in an interview yesterday. Mr Kyalo said a team was formed in September last year to redo all the government websites and will complete its work by March. Information Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiangi (left) said the problem had been lack of coordinated eort by the government to harness the designing of its ocial websites, with ministries engaging private web developers individually. Before the ICTA was established; we had a situation best described as anarchy where some government websites were hosted by private players. The government also hired players to design and host websites and there was no coordination and certain websites were not seen as secure, said Dr Matiangi.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
From Holland to Korogocho with love and blessings

And Jesus will say... welcome home my son/daughter, for I was hungry you gave me food; I was thirsty you gave me water; I was without hope and you restored my hope; I didnt stand a chance to go school you sacriced what you had ........ God bless you Mary and Frank (From Holland to Korogocho with Love, January 29). I wonder if the mega prosperity preachers read such inspiring stories and honour the gospel of Christ oblivious of the fact that her son has Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It may be imperative for agencies to train house-helps to deal with children with special needs. It may be more expensive but more fruitful in the long run. This will not only lower the stigma, but also allow the child to receive the care and understanding they need as they grow.

You dont pray and sit pretty for the answer

vividly recall that Thursday evening when I bowed my head to pray. Its not that I had not been praying on other days, but this day changed my way of praying as wel as my prayer items. I was tired of praying without getting answers. I was tired of praying for the same item over and over again. I kept wondering why my church pastor always insisted on prayer, knowing well that it yielded no results. I was angry with God, my pastor, even you. I was angry with the world. I blamed everyone for my broken heart, bruises, sickness and the love and peace that had so long died in me. I hated life. I hated you. I hated me; all this because my prayers were not being answered. I felt ignored even by God and wondered if he really loved me like His word said. I thought of my friends and how they were doing so well in life...I should have envied them but I didnt because I had already lost hope in me. What was the point of even admiring something I had concluded I would never possess? Well, I suppose I speak for many of you. When things dont work out like we expect them to, we feel inferior and curl ourselves in the dark corner of our hearts and render ourselves useless. We lose hope in ourselves. Did you know thats the worst you could ever do to yourself to believe that you can never be what youve been called here to be? We always want things to work out exactly like weve expected them to be. If you are in college studying mass communication, you expect to nd a job in the media industry. If that does not come along, you would rather stay
It was very inspiring to read the story about Mary-Anne Sandifort and her eorts to make life better for the children of Korogocho.

jobless than working as a cashier in your local supermarket. We fail to realise that sometimes you only need to stand wherever you are to be blessed. From that Thursday night after attending a conference where we were taught how to deliver an eective prayer, I came to realise that you dont pray and just wait for the answer to your prayer. There is a secret. Many of those who get their prayers answered take an extra step. They work on their prayer items as they wait for the answer. So, when I prayed for change, I changed my mind. I prayed for a miracle and realised that I have been the miracle all this while. I prayed for wealth and realised it was my health. I prayed for happiness and realised I am not my ego. I prayed for peace and learned to accept others unconditionally. I prayed for a soul mate and realised Im the one. I prayed for love and realised I only needed to let it in. I have since then learned to work on my realisations and when I sit, I count my blessings. When I stand, they overow. I hum more these days. Let us all learn to walk an extra mile to work hard on achieving our goals and dreams because its never too late to be what youve wished to be. It is said that some years ask questions and others give answers. May this year give answers to the questions of the past years. May it bind what the previous years broke in you, mend whats bruised in you, heal what is sick in you. May it revive whatever peace and love had died in you. Next time you pray, remember the answer is already within you. You only need to realise it and ask for its approval from above. May all the rightful prayers of your heart be answered.

KWALE, KINANGO AND KALOLENI IN KILIFI HAVE REPORTED CASES OF THE DISEASE
Leprosy still prevalent

Last week, we marked the World Leprosy Day, often observed on the last Sunday of January. Many of us wonder: what is leprosy? Is it still with us?
ast year, the Tuberculosis, Leprosy and Lung Disease Unit of the Ministry of Health reported almost 140 cases. The actual number leprosy patients is expected to be much higher. And majority of those aected were aged 15-35 mostly young people including children. There remain pockets of leprosy in the country, such as Msambweni in Kwale, Kinango and Kaloleni in Kili, and parts of Kitui, Busia, and Kisumu counties. There may be other pockets with undiagnosed leprosy.

Most people (95 per cent) are naturally immune to leprosy. In those who develop the disease, progression from infection to leprosy symptoms is slow and can take from three to 20 years! While anyone can get leprosy, those at risk of infection are people in close contact with infectious persons, including those who are infected but yet to be diagnosed. Other risk factors are poor water and sanitation, and poor beddings. Children are at higher risk. In early infection, one may experience the following: Light patches on the skin Numbness on affected skin patches Loss of hair on aected patches. Sadly, many of the symptoms occur once the disease has remained untreated for long, and include: Nerve damage, whereby one loses sensation in ngers, toes, hands, arms, feet and skin causing disgurement, including nodules Shrinkage of toes or ngers.

PAULINE KAIRU
illian Wanja Kungu, 29, woke up in the wee hours to a chill in the air. It was not the usual early morning chill. It felt as if her bedroom had been hit by a cold snap. She wobbled out of bed, changed into her warmest nightdress, and wore her heaviest coat over it. She went back to bed, but the freezing would not stop. Then I started feeling a creeping backache. It was like a phantom. It came and went, and I couldnt tell whether it was in the spine or the muscles, she recalls. At some point, I thought, this is not normal. Maybe I should go to hospital, she recalls. Then she decided to wait it out at home. After all, she says, arent expectant women often taken to hospital and then turned away because it was a false alarm? But as she tried to soothe her discomfort and catch some sleep, she started feeling as though she had a running stomach. She got out of bed twice in 10 minutes to visit the toilet. As she crept out of bed the third time, her water broke. That is when it occurred to me oh my God! The baby is coming, she exclaims, her face looking surprised and bemused. This new 29-year-old mother is still amazed at the events of that morning.
DOCTORS OPINION
Although Lillians near-eortless delivery may seem unbelievable, Dr Wanyoike Gichuhi, an obstetrician and gynaecologist specialising in laparascopic surgery and infertility and operating from at Upperhill Medical Centre, says Lillians was precipitated labour. This is an abnormal delivery that results after unusually rapid labour (less than three hours) and culminates in the rapid, spontaneous expulsion of the infant. In these cases, the cervix just opens up and the baby comes out. The danger in such deliveries is that they often occur without the benet of asepsis (a sanitised environment). Most people who have precipitated labour are those who have had many children because the cervix has opened up a few times, says the doctor. It is not their wish that the birth happens this way. However, just because something turned out well for one patient does not mean it will turn out well for you and even for that patient during the next delivery, Dr Gichuhi cautions. Complications can arise at any moment. A pregnancy that has progressed without any apparent hitch can still give way to complications during delivery. He lists the risks as including excessive blood loss, infection, and babys health, which he names as the biggest obstetric killers. There may be infection as a result of unsterile delivery. The risks in deliveries that happen unaided is especially to mothers who deliver at home without attending antenatal clinic. Such mothers will not have received the anti-tetanus injection, which is usually given during the second trimester, so that even if they deliver away from the hospital, because the area is not sterile, both mother and baby are at risk of getting tetanus, says Dr Gichuhi. Worst still, he adds, if the cord breaks before it is tied or is improperly tied, the baby may bleed to death. If a mother is all alone, she may not know what to do. Also, in such cases because the labour is not monitored, you cant be too sure that the babys vitals are good. Theres the risk of getting birth asphyxia, which is when the baby does not get enough oxygen, heightening the risk of the baby getting brain damage, which leads to cerebral palsy. When you deliver in hospital, the baby is monitored during labour to ensure that its heart rate is normal. The other risk is postpartum haemorrhage. He says in hospital the mother gets an Oxytocin injection to stop bleeding. If you deliver away from a health facility, the uterus may not contract, leading to heavy bleeding. He advises that every mother keep a bag ready with a sterile blade and string to tie the cord in case of emergencies like Lillians.
Panic and confusion

I told her where I had put the scissors and showed her where to cut the cord and how to tie it. After conrming that the baby was warmly wrapped, I just fainted, Lillian recollects. Although her mother kept telling her to push to expel the placenta, she says she did not feel the urge to push, but it did discharge in a few minutes. Even in her state, Lillian continued giving instructions. I told her take the baby to the car and then come back for me . She lets out a hearty laugh before saying: It was more comical than I can narrate because my mother was praying... and rambling while roaming around the room. Meanwhile, every time I would regain consciousness, I would just start laughing, she was more confused than I was. First, when she put the baby on the bed, he started peeing and she exclaimed, Ngai..Ngai..Ngai wooi mae maraumakomae maraumako? (Oh my God! Oh my God! Where is the water coming from?). So she runs to the bathroom to get water and I tell her, We need to be going to the hospital, Mum! The baby is not dirty, she chuckles. Eventually, her mother carried her to the car and took mother and baby to Neema Hospital just before 6am, where they were both given a clean bill of health. The baby weighed 3.1kg. They performed an evacuation of the uterus and kept her overnight for observation. We had been taught this stu. When you go for pre-natal clinic in low-income areas, they show you these things. I was taught all this at AMART mission clinic in Kangemi, where I had been going for ante-natal care. I never once went to a high-end gynaecologist. There, they tell you to always carry a razor, leso, and babys necessities with you. They also tell you not to travel long distances unac-
She continues: I was half-standing and half-squatting. A push later and out pops the baby. At that moment, naturally, I had to gather all my wits to be in charge of what was happening. I held the babys head, positioning him properly so that he would lie on my palms. I told myself, I am having this baby right now , she explains. The baby was coming and I needed to hold it, and not panic. At that moment, she says, the thought that anything might go wrong never even crossed her mind. I never thought I needed to sit down and call someone. No! My thoughts were that this needs to happen right now. When I saw that the baby was nally out and he was making those squirmy noises thats when it really hit me that I was holding my own baby the baby I had just birthed myself. I didnt even check to see its gender. A frisson of surprise shot through her and she screamed for her mother, who was asleep in the next room. Apparently, the commotion of the birth had not even woken up her mother, the only other person in the house. She ran into the room to nd Lillian gingerly holding the baby, who was later named Judah Christopher, in her palms. In shock, she started rambling incoherently, recalls Lillian, whose eorts to calm her down failed. She had lost the presence of mind to know what to do to help her daughter.

IVE GOT NO PRIVATE LIFE TO WRITE ABOUT
The pain of learning to live after death of an only child

I MET LUCY (not her real name) in the 1980s. She wrote me a lengthy letter after reading my story in a local newspaper. I was having a tough time. Most friends ran away after the feature. I was wondering if I did the right thing by telling my story to the world. A week later when I went to the post oce, I found that I had received over 150 letters. All were responses to the feature. The postman called me aside. Those arent the only letters, he said. Weve stored others inside the oce because they all couldnt t inside your mailbox. Kindred spirits Thats how I met Lucy. After exchanging letters, we agreed to a rendezvous at the former KBS (bus station) clock. She explained what she would be wearing. I also gave her my dress-code for the day. We clicked. Lucy was an HIV-infected mother of one. Ditto yours truly. She had been deserted by her husband. I had been dumped, and later widowed. Most importantly, we were both raring to work in the HIV eld and change lives and perceptions. Together we hit the road. Lucy was God-given. She backed me up in telling powerful living with HIV stories. Our experiences encouraged others who were HIV-infected, to live positively. Within no time, we had an organisation and a support group of more than 40 people. Wed meet regularly for group therapy sessions. A model son Ryan* reminds me of my son Peter. Both were born in the excruciating 80s during the dark days of AIDS. At age of 25, Ryan was a doctor. He was driving a car that most of his age mates could only daydream about. Plus, he was a husband and a father of one. The last time I met Ryan in town, he greeted me joyously. Youre like a mother to me, he said. You cant remember me, but I remember you. Thats the last time I saw Ryan. Ill remain with this memory for a long time. Changing frontiers and fortunes Lucy later moved to another province, starting a similar organisation. Almost immediately, she reached hundreds of HIV-infected folks. We would share information from donors, which added value and made a dierence in our dierent jurisdictions. Soon after, Lucy relocated to another country, continuing the same work. Our communication became minimal. That was to change late last year. I receive a call from a mutual friend. Do you still communicate with Lucy? she asked. Have you looked at the obituaries? Friends for four seasons I sweated as I looked at the days paper. I was hoping that the caller had made a mistake. But I knew I was grasping at straws. It was all there. Lucy had lost her only child: Ryan. I didnt know what to do. Shes my friend and she needs my support, I told myself, and called her. The hardest part was to face Lucy and comfort her. I tried to tell her God would give her strength. That He would keep her. That Ryan was a gift to her from God. But I could see I wasnt making any sense to her. A mothers grief Lucy was devastated. Many times when we met after the burial, she would ask: Why did God pick only my son? God left all these people and picked my only son. Wheres the reason? Is it rational? I didnt have answers. Id look blankly at her distraught face. It was hard. It is still hard when Lucy brings up the topic. My answer, always, is that it is only God who knows the whys and wherefores. I tried telling Lucy that Ryan achieved so much in his young life compared to his age mates. That he lived: not existed. To me, that looked too much of achievement for a boy his age. Nowadays, I dont run away from the topic. We talk. We hold on to the hope that death didnt take all that was valuable regarding Ryan. In A Mothers Grief Observed, Rebecca Faber shares about the devastating loss of her son, William. The death of a child is an amputation. How does a person learn to live without a leg or an eye? You can. You must. But it is not normal. What you move toward is a new denition of normal. No words can express the grief that Lucy is enduring. We can only tell the pain shes undergoing from a distance.

companied. They teach you the basics. They also tell you what to do in case of an emergency. But when you go to a gynaecologist, theyll tell you things like when you feel this and that, call me or go to hospital and I will nd you there. So I had it at the back of my mind and I used to carry all that stu with me, she says. Right from the beginning, Lillian, an actuary with a well-paying job and still enjoying the support of her parents with whom she was staying at Kahawa West during the last days of her pregnancy, had chosen to go against the grain. She says she is concerned about how commercialised childbirth has become in Kenya. Hers was a step of faith. How many people can say they successfully birthed their own babies following only their own instincts? she muses, brimming with pride and a real sense of accomplishment. She says she did not have a designated gynaecologist, as has become the custom with many urban women. Lillian had done everything naturally right from the beginning, avoiding ultra-sound scans. At AMART clinic, all they did was feel the position of the baby with their bare hands. In fact, it was not until her last visit that her attendant at the clinic told her that the baby was in a breech position, and so a scan was necessary. It discounted the diagnosis, showing that the baby was in the right position, to Lillians relief. From the scan, I was told, the baby was really low and engaged, she recalls. But even in hindsight, Lillian says she cannot recall any clues that the baby was about to arrive. After the scan, she had been advised that the baby was not due until after two weeks. The due date had previously been scheduled two days later, on June 22, 2013. The new mother believes hers was the best birth and hopes to do the same with her other deliveries. She reckons that childbirth should be completely natural and that what is required is a relaxed mother who allows her body do the work without having to suer the terrible experience in
Childbirth is now a business
most hospitals, where there is a lot of unnecessary shouting and sometimes abuse directed at the mother, making the birthing experience a nasty one for many women. Modernity has changed the way childbirth is viewed, but Lillian believes that many women are robbed of the birthing experience by the commercialisation of obstetrics. She wishes that it could be stripped back to a simpler and more natural experience. When you think about it, all this makes a lot of sense. Pregnancy is not a disease, nor is childbirth a medical emergency, she argues. But how many other mothers would imagine following through with something like this just to give their baby the opportunity to enter the world at home during a normal and nonmedical birth? Most women can give birth perfectly well on their own without interference. Of course, some need a Caesarean section, some need extra medical care, but most do not. In fact, the trend in the UK and the US is to have home deliveries, says Dr Wanyoike Gichuhi, and obstetriciangynaecologist. However, that would be impossible in the Kenyan setup because of infrastructure hurdles, he observes. What they are doing is having a midwife in attendance during the anticipated period. It works there because they have a very good backup system where their road network and ambulance services are ecient. The ambulance takes just a few minutes to arrive after you call 911 and get you to hospital quickly in case of an emergency. But can we aord that in Africa? he asks. In case of a home delivery, he warns, Never pull the placenta because it will shear o and remain inside. Wait for the placenta. Usually when there is a gush of blood most likely the placenta has detached itself, then you can pull it gently using upward and downward movements. Dr Gichuhi emphasises that even after such a birth, the mother and baby still need to go to hospital and are likely to spend the night there. It is at this time that the baby is given the rst immunisation.

Shes using the old bad cop interrogation trick. Selling a lie to catch a lie. If mothers have eyes at the back of their beans, and at the back of schoolyards, they are also crazily ambidextrous. Thats according to this conversation I overheard not too long ago Mom? Two mothers have how many hands? Puddng asks, from a question in her homework. Ten? Ten? Tenderoni corrects her, inquiring if shes talking about hands or ngers. From those 24/7 multitasking superfeats, it may seem like a mom has more digits than a calculator. Another bind, another trick. Way back when, this sly number got hydrophobic types in hot water. This morning, Tenderonis MIA. Joe Soaps on duty. I tell Puddng to take a bath. Dah-dee? She announces, passing me in the kitchen, shivering for full eect. Ive taken a bath. When I go the bathroom, I nd her warm bath water practically untouched. The cloth she uses to scrub herself is also squeaky-clean. No dead-giveaway-surds nowhere. Did you take a bath? I grill. She swears by her shivers. Me? I swing her

Man, that always gets on my last Nilotic nerve. Tenderoni likes teasing that when plastic basins see me, they warn one another: Breaking foots around! In our house, no plastic basins smile, as long as Im around. The jinx started about six years ago. When left to babysit, I stepped on Puddngs potty. The thing shattered. The look on Puddngs face was puhrecious. Id been chopping onions in the kitchen. Puddng had placed her potty in the living room, where she was multitasking. Watching TV while pooping. Fortunately,
the potty was empty. Since then, Ive sent six basins to their early recyclers. Initially, Id do cartwheels. Blaming the basins quality, or onions, or placement. Anything but me. Nowadays, I come clean. Its all about setting a good example. I mean, with taking blame; not breaking basins. I may be plastics worst enemy, but our daughter is the thermos-breaker. She used to carry tea in a thermos to school. But the breakage rate was too much. When pinned down, shed go, The thermos fell. Or, The thermos slipped. Or, Thermos this, thermos that. Same old.

Trashing lies
If things like this happen, dont be afraid, I told Puddng. Say its an accident and apologise. She had spilled her tea on the table, and was trying to pull a fast one on me. She has pulled this stunt countless other times. Making a mistake, then trying to wiggle out of taking responsibility. Lying through her little teeth. Two nights ago, Tenderoni told Puddng to sweep the oor with the hand broom and dust pan. This is baby girls after-meal chore. Where did you throw that? We asked when Puddng reappeared in record time. She replied that she had put it in the trash bag. After further questioning, she nally confessed. Shed chucked the trash behind the door. Heres my hypothesis. Its the fear of real or perceived retribution that drives Puddng to utter falsehoods. Either that, or shes hit every parents frustrating age: self-preservation.

Cant stop thinking about him or her? It could just be a crush

Your heart skips a beat when you see them. You get butteries in your tummy and your palms get sweaty?
man I know was once shocked by the confession of a young woman regarding her crush on him several years back. Luckily for the thoroughly amused fellow, the confession happened in a public place, and although the young woman was rather animated in her narration, she seemed harmless. Crushes happen to most of us, if we care to be honest enough. It happens at least once in our lives, sometimes more. There are two sides of it the one crushing and the one being crushed on. What should we do about it, whichever side we fall in?
surprise if it happens to you. In fact, the real surprise would be to know who has ever had a crush on who. Any confessions?
Many illicit relationships begin this way, and you might have heard some people, men especially, claiming they were not responsible because she came on to me. It is therefore wise to always remember that not everything that glitters is gold, and that true love is not like moss. It needs time root.
Stay still
Its normal
The crush is one of the many manifestations of love and romance. By denition, it is an intense feeling of attraction, usually with very little information about the other person. This means that anyone can have a crush on someone else, and anyone can be the object of a crush. It should therefore not come as a
When you are having a crush on someone, you feel like you want to do just that draw them close and crush them. Being in their presence, especially at the peak of the fantasy can be punishing and the temptation to act on it is quite high. But by its very nature, the deeply engaging emotional core of a crush is infatuation. It fades o pretty fast. Acting on it at this stage is like diving into the ocean before you can swim in a baby pool. It is also important to know that at the peak of it, you are very vulnerable and can easily fall, head over heels as they say (think of jumping out of a moving matatu, head rst), with disastrous consequences. This principle should also apply to the object of the crush, should he or she get to know of it. Again, it can be very tempting when you become aware that someone somewhere is dying to have you close to him/her.
It could be love
YOU FEEL LIKE YOU WANT TO DO JUST THAT DRAW THEM CLOSE AND CRUSH THEM Shadrack Kirunga
A crush begins with admiration just loving the way someone does things or how they treat you. That explains why teachers are some of the hottest objects of crushes. Whoever they might be, these people t our (emphasise, our) portrait of an adorable person beautiful/handsome, neat, and well organised. In most cases, the resolution phase of the crush is when the emotions fall and one realises that it cannot move beyond there. In some situations though, it might result in real love over time as the infatuation fades and one realises that he/she still has deep aection for that other person. Should that be the case, then the normal process of allowing time for the waters to settle must be followed.

KUNDE, MRENDA AND TERERE ARE ALL HIGHLY NIUTRITIOUS GREENS >> CHEF RAPHAEL
Discover traditional green vegetables

ast week, we found out that what we know here as spinach is actually the Swiss chard. We also got a few cooking tips of some popular green leafy vegetables. Today, I will focus on the traditional green leafy vegetables. When prepared the wrong way, these vegetables can be disappointing. Moreover, the nutrients could be lost.
Terere/Mchicha
Also Known as Amaranth Greens, it has over the past few years increased in popularity with more people eating it for its high nutritional value. It can easily be confused as a weed as it grows wildly. However, you can identify it from its densely packed owers and foliage ranging from purple and red to green or gold.
CHEFS TIP
Adding salt to the water when cooking vegetables brings out their avour and raises the boiling temp so that the vegetables cook faster and retain their texture and colour.
1kg Mchicha. Thoroughly clean the leaves (pluck them from the stem) under cold running water. Boil water, then dip them in to cook for about three minutes or until the leaves soften. Drain o the water and cool with cold water. Thereafter, chop the leaves into smaller sizes. With minimal oil, cook the onion, ginger and garlic until it softens and starts to brown. Add the curry powder and cook while stirring for one minute on low heat until it is fully brown. Add the peanut butter then allow to melt into the curry mix while stirring. Add a little water to make a sauce, and then add the cooled greens and give a stir. Allow to cook for about ve minutes until its cooked and soft. Adjust the seasoning and add a little water or cream at the very last moment according to your taste. Serve with Ugali or as a side vegetable accompaniment with meat and rice.
to buying or harvesting, look out for the youngest leaves or tender shoots in their distinctive colour phase of new growth, due to ease of harvest. Young leaves are usually higher in protein, and often look more appealing (lacking insect damage). Older leaves accumulate dust or get spattered with mud from raindrops, while younger leaves would not need as much washing. When it comes to cooking, boil the cleaned leaves whole in salty water for a few minutes until they soften. Drain o the water and cool under cold running water. Cut up the cooked leaves then set aside ready for cooking. Fry plenty of onion and garlic until soft, add chopped tomatoes, then add the kunde. Stir and cook until soft. Adjust the seasoning and serve. This is a tricky vegetable, which for a rst timer, can be a disappointing taste experience. Also known as Jute in English, the leaves are separated from the stems and boiled in salty water. It gets slimy when cooked. It is therefore best cooked with other green vegetables to reduce the sliminess. After boiling, you can cook it like kunde, or add spices like Royco or curry powder to enhance the avour. Serve with ugali and chicken, like they would have it in Western Kenya, and enjoy.

Selection, preparation and storage
When buying, they come attached to the stems and you should look out for green leaves which are free of holes, parasites or dirt. The leaves should not be wilted or old. After buying the vegetable, clean and store in the fridge with the stems intact to stop the leaves from wilting.

Is there a way to prevent insects from biting me?

I FREQUENTLY GET bitten by insects, and I get these huge itchy swellings that stay sore for days. Can you suggest something to deter them? And is there a natural antihistamine to relieve the swelling? Though its a clich, insects do love sweet blood, so try to curb your sweet tooth. B-vitamins, particularly Vitamin B1, are a deterrent. It is therefore worth taking a good B-complex supplement. Stress depletes the levels of the Bvitamins, and this could be one reason
I read somewhere that drinking green tea could help me lose weight. Is this true? It is likely that the article you are referring to cited a recent US study of overweight men. The study found that those men, with no other changes to their diet or exercise regimes, drank green tea three times a day and burned up 200 extra calories a day. It is believed that this eect may have been caused by an antioxidant in the green tea called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). EGCG is said to help
control the ratio of body fat to muscle by promoting thermogenesis, where heat is created in the body to burn fuels such as fat, thereby increasing the bodys metabolic rate. Green tea is also believed to help to restrict the build-up of blood cholesterol, lower blood-sugar levels, reduce high blood pressure and suppress ageing. Since a normal cup of green tea contains approximately 30mg caffeine, compared with 40mg in black tea or 120mg in brewed coee, I suggest you nd a decaeinated (and therefore non-dehydrating) version to reap the benets. What are the richest dietary sources of calcium? What else do I need for strong bones? The best sources of calcium are broccoli, Brussels sprouts, spinach, green leafy vegetables like sukuma wiki, turnips, eggs, and whole grains. Many green vegetables have absorption rates of more than 50 per cent,
compared with about 32 per cent for milk. In fact, a third of the calcium initially absorbed by the body from milk is simply peed out. In cheese, more than two-thirds is wasted. As The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition recently concluded, Relying on calcium alone to prevent osteoporosis is like elding a football team with only strikers and no defenders. Bone health is inuenced positively by many nutrients, including potassium, vitamin K, calcium, vitamin D, and magnesium, and negatively by salt and too much protein. Still not convinced? Then ask yourself this: Why is it that in many tribal communities, like the South African Bantu, where milk and milk products are not consumed, the children grow well and have good bones and teeth, and diseases such as arthritis and osteoporosis are unknown?

coverstory
Binyavanga on coming out,

Binyavanga Wainaina is in town. He says he is going nowhere, that people will have to live with him and the others of his... you know... sexual orientation. Unashamedly gay and not afraid to talk about it, he says you will have to expand your sense of awareness if you think he is being unnecessarily controversial. Last week we caught up with him in Westlands, where, over a couple of drinks, we distracted him from a female friend with whom he was animatedly talking about the colours and sizes of his Kitenges. There is no doubt that this is a well-read man, his worldview informed by the global exposure he has received over the years and the books he has devoured. But that worldview, as we discovered in the course of the interview, also relies heavily on his sexual orientation. Below, excerpts...
BY PETER ODUOR
@pitaoduor poduor@ke.nationmedia.com DN2: Finally, you have come out. How was life like, living as a closeted homosexual for all those years? Binyavanga: I have been a visibly gay man in many circles for a long time now. People who know me and love me, my friends and relatives and writers from all over the continent, have always known that I am gay and that I dont hide it. For me, it isnt an issue. In terms of how it aects my interactions, probably to (the charismatic preachers and theologians), it will mean condemnation, and that is ne with me. What made you come out, especially when you consider the fact that in Kenya not many prominent people have come out to say they are homosexual, and that gayism and lesbianism are still regarded as obscene in these parts of the world? Part of the responsibility of a writer is to live a life of truth. I have the privilege, out of what I have done so far and my interactions with dierent world cultures, to have learned a lot. And that means I can talk about some things that most people may not have the courage or the platform to address. For those gays and lesbians who dont have such privileges, life can be oppressive. When I go through such, I can easily escape go abroad, where things are accepted. I got tired of that kind of pretence and hypocrisy. That is not a moral way of living for me. There have been mixed reactions following your bombshell, with some saying you are a let-down and others congratulating you for the courage to speak out. Did you expect it? I sort of expected the reactions. What was more of a surprise were the messages of understanding, love and support from people who dont know me. I am more interested, as a thinker and as a writer, in people who are able to think even about what they disagree with, as opposed to just react. People like me (homosexuals) have existed in the world, in Africa and in Kenya for ages and we are here to stay. Weve been here. I cant have a conversation with those who approach issues in order to shout others into silence. This is a free country. They exert their opinions and I exert mine. Do you consider homosexuality a moral right? That is, aside from the fact that it is
what you want? I, as a person, as a Kenyan and as an African, have a great problem with people who accept that a preacher should walk in and preach to us (on a bus) while I am going to Nakuru and that we should all listen. I hate it. It is an infringement on my freedom and the freedoms of others. Yet it is part of what everyone has accepted as the everyone must approve Pentecostal dictatorship mentality. My personal space to imagine and live is protected in our laws. It is not my job to educate such people. I believe it is my choice, a moral and constitutional choice. Most people in Africa do not discuss sexual orientation because it is obvious you stay the way you were born and t within expected parameters. What made you go against the grain? First of all, I refute what you are saying. Africans discuss sexuality openly in many ways. You just need to go to countries within the continent where men and women discuss matters of sex and sexuality openly in bars and in sitting rooms during meals. (The idea that sex is taboo) is a Christian colonial mentality. Our rather narrow, over-Christianised sensibility likes to see African-ness as this simple thing. Check out the history of the Azande of Sudan (boy wives), Uganda, Benin, Rwanda, and Senegal (where in the old days, wealthy aristocratic men went to brothels and picked males). Africans discuss, and have been discussing, sexuality for a long time. What I would want the anti-homosexuals to do for us is to provide evidence scholarly documentation showing that homosexuality is un-African. There is no African philosophy that can be simplied. That is just stupid. Cultures are mobile things that people design in order to adapt to the world. It is not a xed box. We must learn to expand our sense of awareness. The Africa I envision is not a continent ruled by policemen of dogma. What is your take on the whole idea of family units? Do you plan to start a family? And do you consider gay unions complete families? The family is not a frozen idea as most people want to make it appear. Nontraditional families have been in existence in the world and in Africa for a long time. Think of the woman-to-woman marriages for the purpose of bearing children in traditional Muranga in the past, for instance. We have diverse approaches to

life that also include the family situation. Today, there are many lesbian and gay families. So, do I want to start a family? I have no immediate plans in that direction. If it comes, it comes. And I dont have a solution to mine. To be gay is not a disease. There are arguments that it is a sort of a disease. Again, can those who say this provide medical or scientic evidence? What we want is a constitutional freedom where no one is interested in what you do behind your bedroom door. Do you expect to be a father someday, to have someone continue your lineage? I need to be a lot more settled before imagining what it would be like to bring up a child. I havent gured out the logistics yet and the time hasnt come for that. About passing on my lineage, we have no shortage of people to pass on my heritage to in our family. What are the reasons behind your coming out? There are those who claim that it was nancially motivated by
Western institutions; that probably this is a publicity stunt for some work you have coming. Im not a broke hustler. Im a person with a good name for a certain kind of truth. Why now, at 43? I think I was just ready in an imaginative sense. But I do want to challenge the speculators and gossipers on their own moral courage.

children, and gay rights

Reactions: Im a cop now, so if you need any help, call me.
WHEN BINYAVANGA WAINAINA published his acclaimed memoir three years ago, he concealed an important part of his life from the public eye. And, two weeks ago, he unveiled a lost chapter of the book on the Internet, titled I am a Homosexual, Mum. The chapter, about missing the opportunity to tell his mother before she died, is intensely personal. The response has been extremely public, a gay bombshell in the words of the Daily Nation. That is because, as a successful author, publisher, journalist and commentator, Binyavanga, 43, has become one of the most prominent Africans ever to come out publicly. And he did so at a moment when the issue is being ercely debated here in sub-Saharan Africa. Even as gay rights have gained ground in the United States and other Western nations, Africa has in some cases moved backward, with several countries increasing penalties against gays. Nigerias president last month signed into law a tough ban on same-sex relationships that threatens violators with 14-year prison terms, amid reports that gay men have been rounded up, arrested and even tortured. The law is extremely cynical, Binyavanga said. Any kind of Bill like that has such extreme consequences that an immediacy of reaction of every kind is necessary. Binyavanga, voluble and expressive, with his hair shaved on the sides, dyed red on one side, blue on the other, and yellow sunglasses perched atop his head, labelled homophobia a Victorian export brought to Africa by British colonialists. He placed the debate over gay rights in the context of a young, rapidly growing continent. Im extremely optimistic about rapid transformation and change of things in Africa in general, he said. Its set o. It cannot stop. Its going to be turbulent. Therell be dark bits and therell be bright bits, but its a speed train. While Binyavanga has spoken out against the new law in Nigeria, his decision to come out was equally about his own experiences in Kenya, in particular, the death of a young gay friend called Kalota whose parents were forced to leave their church afterward. Another friend died of Aids last year, and the aftermath also left him pensive. He was uncomfortable with that whole feeling of a certain kind of surreptitiousness, why didnt soand-so come to the funeral, but they loved him and theyre very close. It was hard for him to pin down why he went public, he said, because its not so much the event as a singularity, but how that singularity compounds on things that happen all the time. Since his chapter went online, Binyavanga said he had been getting messages of support, both public and private, from friends, relatives and even a retired Roman Catholic priest who was close to the family. Someone who was in high school with me who I havent seen or talked to in years, you know, sent me a private message saying, Im a cop now, so if you need any help, give me a call, he said. It was generous, and in a way comforting, but also a sign of the severity of discrimination and public insults, blackmail and beatings gay people in Kenya still face, said Peter Njane, a member of the taskforce for the Gay and Lesbian Coalition of Kenya. The kind of oppression we go through, it forces us to come out and say who we are. It is not just Kenya. On his visit to Africa last year, President Barack Obama found himself trading barbs with President Macky Sall of Senegal. After Obama praised the US Supreme Courts decision to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act, Sall retorted: We are not ready to decriminalise homosexuality. The news media and public in Senegal, where gay sex is illegal and gays are often persecuted, celebrated his deance. Njane said that while the coalition applauded Binyavangas decision to come out, there had been a lot of negativity on social media. Some compared gays to paedophiles, while others made crass jokes or uncomfortable statements about gay sex, calling it weird and unimaginable. I blame the parents! one Kenyan Twitter user said, for giving him an uncommon name like Binyavanga. He was born Kenneth Binyavanga Wainaina, and his family still calls him Ken. But the exotic of the name Binyavanga gave me a thrill, he said, and he began going by his middle name. His mother ran a hair salon in Nakuru, while his father was a successful executive. In The Lost Chapter, Binyavanga said he had known he was gay since he was ve . He described shaking a mans hand at seven: This feeling has made me suddenly ripped apart and lonely.

His mother died in 2000, and he still had not faced up to the thoughts he had been having since he was a child. He did not act on it until ve years later with a man who will give me a massage and some brief, paid-for love in London, as he described it in the chapter. I cannot say the word gay until I am 39, four years after that brief massage encounter. In the meantime, he had become an important voice in African literature. He won the Caine Prize for African Writing in 2002 and was a founder of the

His critical essay, How to Write About Africa, in the British literary journal Granta in 2005, took foreign journalists and authors to task for their clichd approach to covering the continent. For photos, he advised an AK-47, prominent ribs and naked breasts. If you must include an African, make sure you get one in Maasai or Zulu or Dogon dress, he wrote. Acceptable characters include The Starving African, but she must look utterly helpless. The biting piece became a minor sensation. In 2011 he published a memoir, One Day I Will Write About This Place, which was a critical success at home and abroad. Women, especially, Binyavanga said, noticed the absence of a love life. Im not ready to go there, he recalled thinking at the time. He had come out to condants but had not taken the step publicly. He said he and a few friends had been brainstorming what to do for a while in half a dozen conversations in bars over the last eight months. When he nally made the decision, it became a multimedia coming out, the initial online chapter followed by a cyclone of Twitter messages and a sixpart video where he talks about education, creativity and his own experience, posted online as We Must Free Our Imaginations. On Twitter, Binyavanga declared that he would travel to Nigeria, but when asked about it in an interview he said: Such ideas really have to generate from Nigerians. Im not even sure I want to use the term coming out, he said, oering being gay in public instead. Binyavanga seemed like a man at ease with the momentous decision he had made, but also still getting used to how the way he related to the world around him had changed. What is my urinal policy? Do you chat casually with the person next to you as would be the case before? he asked, with his deep, knowing chuckle. These are all the sorts of questions in my head. But he said he had no doubt that he had made the right decision. Theres no point for me in being a writer and having all these blocked places where I feel I cant think freely and imagine freely, he said. There just really is no point. (NYT)
your achievements, would add weight to the quest for recognition of gays and lesbians in Africa. Was that part of your intention? The laws in Nigeria are terrible. They are nishing the oxygen of freedoms. And if you look at those who are making the loudest noises Mugabe, Museveni and Goodluck you can tell that they are politicising homosexuality for their own political survival. I wanted to add weight to the arguments and cause of the gay people across Africa. As for re-inventing myself, Im an artist; I always like to re-invent myself. Your coming out will most likely aect your audience, your readers. Arent you afraid you will probably lose most of them in Africa? You cant worry about people who love literature. Those who love reading will always read. In fact,- the sales of my books have gone up. And readers always adapt. What goes on in your mind when you see a beautiful lady? As an erotic human being, I like women. I even irt with them. But, often, she will disappear from my mind quickly in the intimate sense. Friendship, probably. I cant fall in love with a woman.

CAR CLINIC
Can you tell if the Lexus you are

ell, think twice! It doesnt mean that if your car moves like a Lexus, has the shape of a Lexus, a Lexus logo on the rims and one on the body and on the grille, it is a genuine Lexus. With the sprawling spare parts shops all over, it is easy to source various parts, including badges, labels or car signs. Some Lexus fans x such signs on Toyota Noahs! A sign or label is just that, it doesnt make the car perform better. It only serves to temporarily satisfy ones ego. True, Windoms, Harriers, Celsiors and Altezzas are all made by Toyota, the same makers of Lexus, but when it comes to price and performance or ratings in the industry, the Lexus is still miles ahead of its sisters. A genuine Lexus is more expensive than its derivatives. That is why there are more of such brands in the bonds and very few genuine Lexus cars. Why? For the uninitiated, Lexus is Toyotas highend division. Call it arrogance or class, there are some markets where a Toyota is a no go. But put in something from the same company with a dierent sign/logo or name, packaged dierently to meet their taste and the same people who hate Toyota will grab it with open arms. Surprised? That is how things are. A similar fate followed Volkswagens high-end Phaeton. It is a very nice car. So luxurious that in some areas, it beats both the Mercedes and BMW, which are believed to be trendsetters. It is also very expensive. Imagine a car sharing a platform with the Bentley Continental? In fact, some world leaders use it as their vehicle of choice. So, had VW Group just called it Phaeton, its sales wouldnt have plunged like they did because some Americans, the targeted people, just dont like VW: simple as that. The kind of money one spends on a Phaeton doesnt warrant the VW badge as VW is on the lower
How to tell if a Lexus is fake

If all the rims are screaming Lexus but the steering wheel cover has a Toyota sign, it isnt a Lexus! Some might cover all the rims and the steering wheel cover but forget that the windows, and sometimes the mirrors, have Toyota inscriptions. The dashboard too, in some genuine Lexus models, has to reect this. In some models, the speedometer has a Lexus inscription or logo. Sure, you cannot change everything. Someone who really knows their game will nd out that the car was tampered with. For instance, in some cases even the headlamps have Lexus or Toyota names on them. Just like anything fake, a Lexus badge that has just been attached always looks clumsy, while the real deal is more elegant. So you cannot have two cars in one. It is like having a Mercedes Benz Smart! No way, Smart is Smart and never Mercedes, although the Stuttgart rm makes those tiny cars. And dont be confused by BMW Mini; that is a dierent story.
The real Lexus cars on which the Harrier was based and the one for the Land Cruiser VX are marketed or sold as RX and LX series respectively. A number of these Toyotas are branded as Lexus in the local market
end of German marques in terms of street credibility and desirability. In the US, that is. There are other high-end Japanese brands from Honda and Nissan, which trade in the Western world as Acura and Inniti respectively. So, with competition, mainly from European car makers BMW and Mercedes Benz, Toyota had to up its game and remain relevant in the premium division. So next time you come across a car with signicant similarity to your Honda but having an Acura badge, respect it for it is in a dierent league. This confuses many people, who innocently write about Nissan Inniti and Toyota Lexus. Those cars dont exist! Let no one fool you. If it is a sales pitch from a dealer in the various car bonds, dont believe him; educate him instead. Some local dealers have duped buyers, especially of Harriers and Land Cruisers VX type, into believing they had bought the real Lexus! The real Lexus cars on which the Harrier was based and the one for the Land Cruiser VX are marketed or sold as RX and LX series respectively. A number of these Toyotas are branded as Lexus in the local market. It means either the owner bought it ignorantly but paid for it expensively or bought it knowing that it is a Toyota but, for prides sake, bought several Lexus signs to replace the Toyota ones. Talk about pimping ones ride to gain status! How did we get here? According to Robert Okello, a motoring enthusiast and owner of a Toyota Aristo (sold as Lexus GS 300), the Toyota Harrier and the Lexus
RX300 are similar, but for dierent markets. Until recently, Toyota didnt want to have the Lexus brand in their Japanese domestic market (JDM). For the RX300,
Many people innocently write about Nissan Inniti and Toyota Lexus. Those cars dont exist, now you know! Some local dealers have duped buyers, especially of Harriers and Land Cruisers VX type, into believing they had bought the real Lexus
there was the Harrier (IS300); Altezza, (SC300), Soarer (LS400), Celsior and LX460; Cygnus, with later models being for the JDM, and that is what we get locally. In fact, most used cars we get here are JDM cars, Okello explains, adding that, with the introduction of the Lexus brand in Japan, the JDM equivalents were discontinued. Indeed, the rule of thumb for a true Lexus is not to see any Toyota badging on the whole car. In fact, Lexus goes ahead and badges everything, just like its German counterparts, right down to the speedometer and windows, Okello notes. Mechanically speaking, the JDM equivalents and Lexus are, to a large extent, similar, with the dierences being in options like leather seats, safety features, GPS etc. Speaking on condition of anonymity, another car expert says: The Toyota Harrier was specically for the JDM market, while the Lexus RX was for the international market. In fact, if you show a picture of the second-generation Lexus RX to any Japanese on the street, he
or she would likely identify the Lexus RX as a Toyota Harrier, he notes. This is because the Lexus RX was not on sale in the Japanese market, only the Toyota Harrier was. From the re-badging exercise, the better specced Toyota Harrier L and Premium L packages eventually became the Lexus RX SUVs for the international community, where it was well-received in the US, UK and South East Asia. And because the Japanese typically change their cars on a three-year cycle, the excess unwanted second-hand cars are auctioned o to companies that bring them to countries all over the world as reconditioned vehicles, the expert explains. The second generation Lexus RX is out, and so is its Harrier sister. The third generation Lexus RX is also out, but not the Harrier. So anyone expecting to drive a third generation Harrier might wait for years on end without seeing one. Reprinted from the Daily Monitor

Minicars emerge worst performers in small-overlap front crash test
A group of 11 minicars did the worst of any class of vehicles tested so far in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safetys newest and toughest trial, the small-overlap front crash test. Of the 11 minicars tested, none achieved the institutes highest rating of good. Only one, the Chevrolet Spark, achieved the next highest rating of acceptable. The others received ratings of either marginal or poor, the lowest rating. The two worstperforming cars were the Honda Fit and the Fiat 500. To date, the insurance institute has tested small cars, midsize cars, midsize luxury sedans, compact crossovers and SUVs. The organisation, which is nanced by the insurance industry, noted that cars in its small category, which are just a bit bigger than the minicars, achieved much better scores. The tested minicars were all 2013 or 2014 models, although in some cases the ratings apply to earlier models as well. Minicars that received an overall rating of marginal in the institutes test were the 2014 Ford Fiesta (built after August 2013), the 2012-14 Kia Rio, the 2011-14 Mazda 2 and the 2012-14 Toyota Yaris. Those given a poor rating were the 2013-14 Fiat 500, the 2009-14 Honda Fit, the 2013-14 Hyundai Accent, the component of the overall rating. Automakers need to invest in making changes to these vehicles that they have been making to their highvolume models, said Russ Rader, a spokesman for the insurance institute. This is a relatively new test, and it requires in many cases a redesign, and some of these havent been through a complete makeover. And, when you are talking about a vehicle that weighs less than 2,500 pounds (1,139kgs), there is an inherent disadvantage to riding in a small, lightweight car. If safety is a priority, its better to move up even one class size. In both the Fiat 500 and the Fit, the drivers space was seriously compromised by the intruding structure, according to the report. The drivers door of the Fiat 500 opened after it tore apart at the hinges, increasing the risk of ejection. In the Fit, Accent, Prius C and Yaris, the seatbelts allowed the crash test dummy to move too far forward, so the dummys head barely contacted the front air bag before it slid o. This combination resulted in the head hitting the instrument panel. In eight vehicles, the side curtain air bag did not extend far enough forward to provide adequate head protection. In the Yaris, it did not deploy at all.
2014 Mitsubishi Mirage, the 2012-14 Nissan Versa sedan and the 2012-14 Toyota Prius C. (The Versa sedan ratings do not apply to the Versa Note hatchback). The new small overlap evaluation, which the institute added to its repertory of crash tests in 2012, replicates what happens when the front corner of a vehicle strikes another vehicle or an object at 40mph (64kph).
It is especially dicult to get a good rating on this test because the impact bypasses most of the vehicles frontend crash-absorbing structure, meaning it is dicult for a vehicle to absorb crash energy before it reaches the passenger compartment. As a result, the compartment can collapse in a crash. And every minicar, including the Spark, was rated marginal or poor for structural integrity, which is one

SAILS OF DOOM
CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY
The boys watched, speechlessly, as several more ships sailed into sight. Eventually, they counted a eet of seven large ships and ve smaller vessels; ten or eleven small dhows were sailing with them. The boys watched, their hearts beating faster, as the strange eet slowly moved through the water, towards the reef. The great sweeping sails apped lazily as they tried to catch the wind, but in vain, because the breeze had died to a whisper. The boys could see a row of menacing gun muzzles mounted on each of the larger ships and knew, even at that distance, that these were not Portuguese ships from Goa. They noticed that a big red ag hung limply on the masthead of the leading ship, instead of the Portuguese ag, and each of the other ships carried a large green ag. Gradually the ships lost way and eventually dropped anchor.
It must be the Omani eet coming to attack Mombasa! Carlos nally whispered, his voice hoarse with horror. We must get back to the Fort at once, Hussein, and warn them of the danger! We must be careful not to be seen, Hussein whispered back. Or theyll try to stop us. I dont think theyve seen us and, if they did, theyll probably think that were local shermen. Come on, Hussein, we must hurry. Hauling their shing lines hastily into the canoe, they pulled up the anchor and started paddling slowly away from the big ships. It was a demanding task because, although the tide was not as strong as it had been earlier, there was still enough current to tire them as they paddled against it, all the while afraid of being seen.
