About Me


Erudite, reasonably ambitious and very focused. Warm-hearted and very good company, but I've a reputation for being very opinionated, insightful and very respectful.








Interests

I do a lot of reading & writing. When am not doing that I spend time with family and friends. You should know that I love kids(my nieces&nephews are my angels!) As a typical Kenyan man, I enjoy the pleasures of juicy goat ribs! Did you say "Mugithi, Kilunda or Nyadundo"??
I live an active life with Soccer as my favorite sports(A MAN UTD fan DAMU!)For loyalty-sake, HARAMBEE STARS MINUS the perennial bickering. I'm working on my golf swing, and for fun I play tennis, swimming and other ball games.
Chances are Africa will have the UN top post around 2030 and by then I will be ready to take up Koffi Annan's job as the UN Sec. General!

Favorite Music

Current Favorite Artists / Bands: Slow music is good to listen to(R&B, country, gospel, old school),but I would dance to any musical genre.
 

Favorite Movies

Comedies and Action/Thriller I like. But NO HORROR PLEASE!!!
 

Favorite TV Shows

Me my wife and Kids, 24, The Unit, Westwing/Commander in Chief, NCIS and CSI. "Najivunia na Vioja Mahakamani and Vitimbi"
 

Favorite Books

The Holy Bible has no comparison. Philosophical thinkers like Plato,Aristotle and others are great for keeping the mind sharp. For leisure novels by Tom Clancy, John Grisham, Dale Brown and Ludlum are great reads.
I feel incomplete until I read the daily papers, then there is the weekly/monthly publications that are good.
Being in the scholarly world, I read mountains of journals, articles and other publications.
 

Favorite Quote

Live each moment as if it was the First, the Last and the Only moment you had to live. (Annon)
All that God has created is good, it is us(humans) that make it sinful and corrupt (Annon)

I DO NOT CARE ANYMORE who won or lost the Presidential Elections.I DO NOT CARE WHO is the President.

BUT, I do care about my country and the senseless loss of life and property going on in parts of our beautiful land. NO amount of justification, whether Political, Tribal, Social, Economic, Religion or whatever else, should allow for the loss of life or property!!!

Because I belong to a different party does not mean we fight. Because I belong to a different ethnic group does not mean we fight. Because I belong to a different social/Economic group does not mean we fight. Because I belong to a different region/Province does not mean we fight.

WHY? BECAUSE we are all KENYANS. 

The elections were or might have been rigged (Its not for me to judge), BUT, is that a reason to murder? Is that a reason for Arson? Is that a reason for Ethnic cleansing or Tribal Clashes if you want? Is that a reason for tear-gas and bullets? Is that a reason for leaving thousands of displaced people? Is that a reason for lawlessness? 

Are the election results or their validity a reason for leaving so many children orphaned, women and men widowed?Is that a reason for rape? 

THE ANSWER IS NO, NO, NO, NO, and AGAIN I SAY NO!!!

Yesterday it was Mt. Elgon, Nairobi(Mathare, Kibera and Dandora) Kisumu, Mombasa and Eldoret. Today it is Nakuru, Naivasha, Molo and Burnt Forest that is bleeding and crying at the loss of her innocent children. Where will it be next? Do we have to wait until there is a Next before we stop the madness? Why do we keep on with such madness? Why do we suddenly hate each other so much? Why do we suddenly have so much bitterness? WAIT A MINUTE! Don't tell me its because of elections. We've had elections all along, and we've even had disputes over the same.

WE HAVE TO STOP THE KILLINGS, RAPE, EXPULSIONS, HATRED, FEAR, ANGER before we reach a point no return. We start NOW, YOU and ME. We say enough and start spreading the same message to all we meet.  Lets not wait any longer, we act now to put an end to all these.

GOD BLESS KENYA.

I feel you in your journal entry my brother, I am not from Kenya and I have never been to your beautiful country, but I have heard about the senseless killings that is going on right now over politics. I really pray for Kenya and all Kenyans that the country will return to stability. We are all one people, one blood. Have Faith.
