Follow this link: uhuru.co.ke/And from the looks of things this is only the about page. I wonder what will come next! Kudos to Team Uhuru! Wow! Sample Image below but you have to experience it for yourself! PS: I know I had began a SWOT analysis of Uhuru and also promised to post 50 things few people know about him from Team Uhuru's Twitter update but work has been..... I'll get to it. This one I simply had to share! Wow again and Wow again!

It's a nice summary and a well done presentation of the person but hardly inspiring for the typical voter. Hardly inspiring to millions of long suffering Kenyans or the GEMA youth and peasants that Uhuru is so desperate to keep in his camp.
Besides, there are obvious misrepresentations and omissions. These cannot be wished away!
Where's Daniel Arap Moi, the man who literally plucked young Uhuru from nowhere and thrust him to Kenyans as KANU Chairman and Kenya's presidential candidate in 2002?
Where's Musalia Mudavadi, his running mate in 2002, and William Ruto standing behind him at Serena Hotel after it became apparent NARC's Mwai Kibaki had an unassailable lead?
Where's the bombshell of being named as one of the Ocampo Six in December 2010?
Or are these individuals and milestones being deemed as liabilities to 2012 presidential campaign?
The claim that Uhuru campaigned for FORD-Asili's Kenneth Matiba in 1992 is just laughable. Just wait till Matiba gets wind of this.
Uhuru's handlers are doing well to sell their candidate but they cannot hide some of these issues. It's like Raila trying to hide the fact that he was tried for treason (whether fairly or unfairly) for his role in the 1992 coup attempt.
Let's be shown anything in public domain that Uhuru has presided over with any degree of success. This is the yardstick we want to use to gauge his possible presidency.

Let's be shown anything in public domain that Uhuru has presided over with any degree of success. This is the yardstick we want to use to gauge his possible presidency. Mr. Phil, You've said the site is hardly inspiring and yet I can authoritatively say there is no other about page in Kenya that can beat it. It's ahead of its time. The page you're criticising is what will be given Tech awards for brilliance and ingenuity. I can tell you for sure that the page is made of stuff that can only get accolades. Did you notice the embedded videos? I tell you this site is a nuclear bomb compared to others which are just lit matchsticks. I will first jump to your paragraph about Matiba and then come back to what you said about Moi. Do you really think that someone like Uhuru would allow such a website to go up without first going through it an approving it? In light of this do you really believe that he would allow anything to be put up that would later on bring him trouble as you allude in your statement about Uhuru not campaigning for Matiba and Matiba complaining about it later on? I can guarantee you that I know for a fact that Uhuru campaigned for Matiba. These videos can be found anywhere and everywhere. All you have to do is do alittle bit of research and you'll find them. Now after challenging you to do your own research over Uhuru's campaigns for Matiba, I'll point to the fact that you've claimed Moi plucked Uhuru from political obscurity when you very well know that this is not factual. If he campaigned for Matiba who was Moi's opponent, how is it then that you claim that it was Moi who brought him to the forefront of politics? Then there is the issue of Ocampo and the ICC. Uhuru has denied all claims made against him and stated that they are fabrications and lies meant to smear him. In light of this, how could he go ahead and give credibility to the ICC using his own website by stating that he is a suspect in a criminal investigation? Don't you think the prosecution would point to it as did the defence lawyers concerning Ocampo's admission on Jeff koinange's 'The Bench' that he had no evidence against President Kibaki and yet elsewhere he said that Kibaki was in a meeting with PEV perpetrators? Finally, how is it that you've conveniently omitted the fact that the about page actually states that the Economic Stimulus Programme and the re-engineered Information Financial Management Information System are among his crowning achievements. You said Kenyans needed to know what work he's done and I can tell you that ESP alone has done much more than any other government before this one has done. I will point you to the ESP website for actual data since it will be much better than my word. Once fully implemented in all government departments and ministries the re-engineered IFMIS will deal the final blow on corruption and wastages in government and this especially on the financial front. Most people have for years only thrown trash at DPM Uhuru Kenyatta without trying to know the man or looking at what he does but the thing I can assure you is that he's probably one of the best leaders who Kenya has had for a long time. If you follow his work you'll eventually figure this out unless you've got something personal against him or you're just tribal.

Man Njugush.
Could you clarify how much land Uhuru and his family own since there appears to be lots of smearing and conflicting reports concerning this issue? If possible also explain how that land was acquired and whether any has been donated to IDPs for free. Uhuru has failed to address this burning issue and put it to rest once and for all. Mama Ngina even once claimed the family is poor.
Thanks for your time.

...What is the use for all this when Uhuru may lose the G7/G6/G5/G4/G3/G2, etc, nomination to Ruto, Eugine, Saitoti, Duale, Mwakwere, Poghisio, Magara, or even Musyoka...?
Is this banner under KANU/PPU/TAI/PNU/PNU Alliance...or someone has let the cat out of the bag that Uhuru must be on the ballot paper next year?
Does this consider that the fate of Uhuru's presidential bid hangs on the ICC judges, Political Parties Act of Kenya, and the IEBC Kenya clearing him to run...?
I see eggs all right, but lets not celebrate till they hatch....
Anyway if I also had the billions of Kshs that Uhuru has at his disposal, I would advertise my birthday party on CNN International, BBC, SKY News, etc,...every year! ;D

Njuguna:
You should know that Jukwaa is NOT a free online bill board for promoting this or that wanna be President.
But since I happen to be surfing from Gatundu South constituency right now, I will not do what I wanted to do:
Delete this thread and kick you out of Jukwaa.
Please do not do it again.
Let the eyeballs zero in on this posting.

Let the eyeballs zero in on this posting. Onyango Oloo Jukwaa Administrator Mr Onyango Oloo, I did not wish to make it seem as though I'm promoting anybody and if it looked that way then I assure you I did not have any such plans. What I'll assure you though is that I'm a believer in an Uhuru-Ruto Presidency otherwise known as a G7 Presidency. It just happened that when I went for my paper the other day I saw Uhuru's Birthday and decided since I was going to post anyway why not post that newspaper article. Then today just before starting again Team uhuru posted on Twitter that their website was up. The truth is that the site was so good that I simply couldn't let it be. I actually wanted to discuss something else altogether but the site was overwhelming. Anyway, I'll get to the actual debate I wanted to start in my next post. I hope they will not launch the website next because I'll be tempted to share it but assure you that I will control myself. Respectfully Njuguna

Njuguna,
Are you sure you want to use the title "DEADLIEST" in relation to Uhuru? What hapenned to sensitivity? There are some deadly issues hapenning around Uhuru right now and if I was campaigning for him I would ban the use of the word deadly anywhere near the man. Consider that a free advice.

Why not mdeadliest if we have to stick with seng seeing as Uhuru is still a 50 year old youth! I thought deadly is a plain English word meaning dangerous, could cause harm, could kill etc as opposed to mdeadly which could mean a cute guy or something like that. What am I missing?

Are those kinds of folks deadly or mdeadly? Don't worry you can send me an invoice for these seng lessons.

Njuguna,
I have to agree with you that this thing is just as DEADLY as the man (Muthamaki) himself. At this pace you will shudder (to borrow Kamale's term) at what the octogerians will come up with. Cant compare, the bar is already way too high.

If you think the war in Somalia is as muddy as hell(literally) wait till the 2012 war is on and that is if mutha survives Ocampo which to me is very doubtful, but I digress. So Kenyans will handle all the DEADLY snakes that come their way however poisonous they are.

Sheng or not deadly and Uhuru should not appear on the same sentence given the current events for it is a tag that can evoke even among the most casual of potential voter the negative claims made against this candidate.
And who would in Kenya elects a prezzo because of a fancy URL anyway. This could make sense as a nice hobby for its creators but in Kenya the good old 'massive rallies' and TV/Radio is what will move the voters if at all.

The role of a political a website is to market the politician and his or her party and if that is the goal then team Uhuru has one heck of a site. Is it too hard to accept the obvious, regardless of whether you support the dude or not. Wacha tuone hizo za wengine. In the last election I thought the two parties did a poor job of exploiting and using the net. It seems team Uhuru has jumped ahead. Man Njugush - you are right hiyo site ni deadly.

I am not sure a "deadliest" website will be enough to win a presidential election. Bring me some substance, and maybe we can talk.
Deadliest is whats going on along our borders all the way into Somalia.

I hope Uhuru Kenyatta has sued Kagwanja as he promised the ICC to do once he was here.
This is a credibility issue which would justify his innocence and more important than a birthday bash.

Adongo When you and I talk (as the wazees that we are in Jukwaa) you can bet that the word Deadly will be used in its truest meaning. But then we must allow the younger members of Jukwaa to indulge themselves in a language they communicate best in!

At first glance, I certainly see a big error therein. Although the site tries to herald the major events that occurred throughout UK's life, its conspicuously missing major ones too.
He is saying that he has always associated with the major political players amongst his community, His dad, Matiba, another political heavyweight and the great warrior, the only Kenyan president to have crossed borders with his great army, the only and only one general Kaguo (may God be his shield in these times of war).
He has not named any other personality outside his community, a very cunning man indeed. He is telling us that he has always worked within the constraints of his community - where is his statesmanship?
It misses out on another important personality - M01. I might have not been endowed with political maturity back then, but I remember, M01 bequeathing his KANU throne to UK. At least he should have mentioned M01 somewhere even if its in a different event. M01 was a much more important player in UK's political tutelage than lets say Matiba unless there were other dealings that I'm not privy of.
Consequently, the message I can decipher from UK's site is that he his telling fellow community members that he has always been with them even at difficult times. He is also telling them that he is an ordinary man, just like them, struggling to get a company up and working, etc just like them. Maybe he is preparing them for a major request -Support me in the next election.
I see a more important message though. He his signaling to KANU that it is and has been irrelevant in his political life. KANU which for a long time enjoyed a national outlook is synonymous to the Rift valley. I do not know how the rift valley will interpret this. Maybe he has got wind that M01 may not support him this time. For that I will wait.
Lastly, UK may be passing out a totally different message. That this site is not about politics. Its about his life or rather, how he wants us to view him so lets not misinterpret it. But then again, he mentions the referendum days, his days at the helm of the finance ministry, his nomination to parliament, his support to Kibaki, e. t. c.
Maybe these site is just full of nothing or everything. Maybe he just wanted to be found by search engines. As such. he best knows what it represents. Whatever!

Subsaharanie I think you are unfair to Uhuru. How do you accuse him of only associating with political heavyweights that come from his community only? Have you considered the possibility that the men you mention might be the only political heayweights worth any mention in the country? Though I am sure in the fullness of time, even Daniel Arap Moi ended up sharing the same !community" with Uhuru.....!

When I read the 'deadliest' campaign site, I expected something of substance. This is still a primitive site relatively speaking and even an apprentice web designer can come up with such within an afternoon. Anyway, it seems like when one is a sycophant, even the mundane can make them all misty eyed.
