if you're interested in the numbers, based on the IEBC numbers, uhuru passed the 50% threshold with 0.07% way below 1%. But that's not the only point. The petition reveals, if confirmed, that the electoral process was deeply flawed. Yes, Uhuru passed the 50% threshold with 0.07%, way below 1%. Why is that relevant? Why is that relevant? Are you kidding? You admit here that the number of disputed voters is around 1%. Yet Uhuru managed to scrape through by a paltry 0.07%, way below the 1% disputed voters. What if it is posited that the 1% disputed voters are the ones that helped Uhuru cross the 50% mark?

Hehe.. it is always amazing when people like Kamalet who know nothing about how IT systems work purport to be experts of the same and angrily dismiss solid evidence.

With his willing seller, willing buyer line, Uhuru may have played to the script and succeeded in evading the land question, maybe even winning the land argument, but just like his performance at The Hague, while this might make his core supporters happy, it does nothing to endear him to the people who matter, the people of the Counties of Taita Taveta, Kwale, Lamu, Malindi, Nakuru, Kajiado, Narok, etc. These people are now asking who the willing sellers Kenyatta is referring to were, because they certainly do not remember selling any land to Kenyatta nor know anyone who sold to Kenyatta.

Kamale, The Tuzo deal will run out in March. Boy are we all waiting with bated breath for that day. Already no less that 4 sponsors have shown intierest in working with Gor Mahia and with better terms than that nonsense Tuzo deal.

That Vanderwerf character certainly is the prime suspect in this murder. And yes, it looks like a mafia hit job.

Hehe.. Kamalet has unwittingly let the cat out of the bag, that TNA is the sponsor of at least one of the gangs in Kisumu - China Squad. Shame on you! It was Phil that introduced the issue of the gang and its alleged sponsor which is the ODM way of running away on responsibility. Not sure why you guys are quick to speculate on the death of a businessman cum politician. Why dont you sit and wait for the details of why he was killed? Dude, you're trying too hard to be clever but doing a very bad job of it. Phil simply stated that the murder is probably the work of China Squad which is affiliated with a leading political party. You are the one who identified that political party as TNA hence bringing it into this conversation. I wouldn't put such acts past TNS though.

I'm getting used to this electoral cycle. The status quo guys will buy out a few cheap defectors, induce some fake momentum, start chest humping for a few months. But when the actual campaigning begins, the moment of truth arrives and the status quo side receives stunning blows from the reformers. Unfortunately, in 2007, the status quo managed to hang on to power by manipulating the elections. in 2013, electoral malpractises will be a thing of the past. Blatant stealing of votes will be impossible. Tis is when the reality will sink in and the people currently bleating here will suddenly grow very quiet.

Miguna asks "where are the law suits"? Apparently he has not been served with a libel notice since landing back in KE two weeks ago. The Caroli Omondi's of this world were just posturing politically, it seems ;D Miguna tears into the Efficiency Monitoring Unit which white-washed Raila's minions, as it falls under his docket & couldn't possibly have carried out an impartial investigation of its boss. He also rips into The Inspectorate of State Corporations as Caroli & Isahakia supervise it. KACA & the DPP come under his wrath as well. This guy will not be cowed The man is fast being forgotten but is fighting hard to stay relevant.

OK, we'll go with your word for now. One thing for sure though. If I have a friend coming home from abroad and I go to meet him at the airport, I usually meet him face to face and not through his driver. You should not need to wrestle strangers to the ground to have a piece of Miguna. No, he should seek you himself. And if you were going to meet him anyway at his house over agwata nyuk kal and kuon bel, why did he need to send his driver to hand over the muthi moa loka? Wouldn't he have just as easily handed it over to you himself during the porridge-taking session? But don't mind me, it's just old fashioned me speaking, so suit yourself pal. Would that friend be the author of the most discussed book in the country right now? Would that friend have dozens of radio, television, print and social media journalists waiting to interview him? Would that friend have the Arrivals lobby jam packed with hundreds of ululating young strangers? You see what you are reducing this to? Another unnecessary and diversionary side show with us bantering barbs back and forth. Onyango OlooLet me put it this way: Even if my friend was the president of the US of A, or the Secretary General of the UN, and he knew I was at the airport too at the time of his arrival, he would meet me personally even if to just shake hands and share greetings. He certainly would not deal with me through an intermediary. He certainly would not put more importance to saluting dancing teenagers and posing for papparazzi than an old friend. But again, it's just old fashioned me speaking. Let the modern guys have it their way. Life goes on.

Hehe, And if he had just gone on a holiday, how come his family did not come back with him? Or are they on an extended holiday at that Canadian college dormitory?[/quote] Boss, why the small minded pettiness? What is it of concern to you and the country where Miguna's family sleeps at night? Imagine how your mother must feel, having spent millions to educate you only for you to still think at the same level as a village idler Should have bought herself shoes and dresses instead. Yeah, I pay attention to details. If the story doesn't add up, I'll question. Simple as that. No need for insults.

Hehe, so now Miguna is too important to have a one-on-one meet with his erstwhile bossom buddy Oloo. Instead Oloo has to go through an intermediary who in this case happens to be Miguna's driver. And I tell you it is going to get worse in the coming days. And if he had just gone on a holiday, how come his family did not come back with him? Or are they on an extended holiday at that Canadian college dormitory? So Called "genius":The level of PETTINESS you exhibit in your snide remarks above is abysmal and pathetic. Why should Onyango Oloo scramble to wrestle to the ground strangers at the JKIA Arrivals lobby for a piece of Miguna when I can easily go over to his house and chat leisurely with him over a scalding agwata of nyuka? And who says his family was NOT THERE? They may have left the airport by other means. Onyango OlooOK, we'll go with your word for now. One thing for sure though.

Patritism101 A gas cylinder is not thrown away and a new one bought when one runs out of gas. It's exchanged, and taken for refilling. I'm sure you know that. So, there is no strict direct relationship between demand for gas and that of the cylinds. Topnotch- You want us to argue about this- really? How many people will turn eighteen this year in East and Central Africa? assuming half of those start their homes, they will most likely require a meko stove. Back to your argument- that a cylinder is exchanged when gas runs out- it means we now have fewer cylinders for say 1 million more homesteads- you see why I get tired explaining elementary supply and demand lessons to geniuses here on jukwaa? In any case, why should a household have only one cylinder? How many people would like to have choma grilled with gas? Folks in the rural would like to have the commodity but because of the ineptitude of the odingas, they are forced to contend with firewood, leading to massive wipeout of forest cover. The gas infrastructure, in this case cylinders, has everything to do with supply of the commodity. That is all I will say on gas and cylinders my friend. Senti 5 patriotism101, you are quite a comical guy. So now it is Raila's fault that people in the countryside use firewood instead of gas cylinders. FYI, there is no shortage of gas cylinders in Kenya at least for domestic gas users. The shortage is in gas. I have gone to the gas station many times to buy gas only to be told there is no gas or there is a gas shortage because the gas import shipment is stuck in the high seas, or is held up in Mombasa etc, Never have I been told that the gas is there but there are no cylinders to put them in. How ridiculous do you sound mouthing off such nonsense. Let's humour you though: if indeed there is such a shortage of gas cylinders in the whole of East and central Africa and Spectre is doing such a horrible job at satisfying that demand, how come other entrepreneurs have not come up to fill the gap. Here is a business opportunity and the Odingas are such bad businessmen. By, now better businessmen ought to have grabbed the market from them.

Patriotism101, So you agree that as senior employees go, especially for chemical and plant engineers, there is no favouritism towards Sakwa and Gem people and the recruitment is done on merit. The only blot is in the dominance of Sakwa and Gem people at the 'watu wa mkono level.' I do know at least four friends of mine who landed these low level jobs at Spectre and these guys are not from Sakwa nor Gem. Two were from Nyakach, one from Homa Bay and the other from Muhoroni. It is hard to prove that majority of the watu wa mkono are from Sakwa and Gem or from elsewhere. Perhaps a headcount could prove that, I hope you have the staff list with you and are not just relying on street talk. Concerning Spectre using hammers to make gas cylinders, that is no big deal, just a question of cost versus earnings and also paying attention to future trends. I doubt the scale of business Spectre has justifies investment in that high tech cylinder casting equipment. You see, once you buy a cylinder, you rarely replace it. You keep it for life. I also remember the furore in Kericho when the tea companies laid off the tea pickers and decided to go for tea-picking machines. Probably, spectre is trying to avoid taking such a politically risky move. You do not want to see Atwoli and the Cotu crew at Spectre offices protesting jobs lost due to mechanisation of the cylinder making process. Those hammer-wielders are very glad to keep their jobs for now. Nevertheless, if mechanising the cylinder-making process will lead to statistically significant rise in profitability, then Spectre would long ago have gone for it. But rest assured no serious entrepreneur will invest in new technology just because it’s the fashionable thing to do. Genius, I think I made my point. If you want to see first hand the evidence of chaotic and haphazard leadership/management Miguna is talking about- visit Spectre International- workers are treated worse than the "mhindi" factories in Kenyan Industrial area. On profitability - I have no idea what you are talking about. Profitability is driven by demand. What you are telling us is that the demand for gas in East and Central Africa (why Africa anyway) is saturated- tell it to the birds. Senti 5 You have no point, sire. Making wild allegations here then when asked for evidence telling me to go to Spectre and investigate is utmost laziness. As for demand of gas, Spectre manufactures gas cylinders. It does not manufacture gas. Demand for gas is not the same thing as demand for gas cylinders. Ask any gas cylinders dealer, the movement of gas cylinders may be fast, but I doubt it is fast enought as to justify investment in automation of the manufacturing process.

Meanwhile I submitted my expression of interest for a seat in vihiga County. There was this gentleman from Kisumu running for Kisumu East who brought a 100 page bound thesis. Mine was a single page with a link to my website. So I asked the N E B guys whether my single page was fine and they said it was. The voters of Kisumu East are going to have to burn the midnight oil if this is a sign of things to come. Hehe Enigma, Talk of overkill. The man used one hundred pages to do what can be done wit hone page. Seems like Kisumu residents have quite some reading ahead of them.

here we go:
RAILA TO ADDRESS A RALLY IN KIBERA ON SUNDAY 5TH. AUG
Prime Minister Raila Odinga who is also the Orange Democratic Movement – ODM Party Leader will this Sunday 5th August 2012 hold a Public Rally at the Kamukunji Grounds in Kibera in his Lang’ata Constituency.
The rally will start at 2.pm. Phil, it is at these Kibera Rallies that Raila usually finds himself saying things that rattle or embarrass even his most diehard supporters. Please advice him to watch his tongue this time. He better steer clear of the Miguna book completely and not even mention it.

Honestly, isn't this Mashada stuff written by one Rough Rider? Since I know Rough Rider's real identity, I'm simply shocked to say the least that he can stoop lower than a snake's belly. And for what? "A former schoolmate of Miguna at Onjiko insisted that Miguna was a glutton who was known for eating. He would frequently eat ‘twice’. This was the source of the nickname ‘owadgi onding’ – which, really translates as the ‘brother of the yellow maize’ because he ate the yellow relief maize in copious quantities even as other students hated it. Greedy Miguna seeks to revise his personal story by spinning this to mean he was one who never cared about what others thought, even as he ate like a hyena.
What about Miguna’s relationships? Miguna’s Marriage’s? – Why haven’t these been discussed fully? For instance - what led to the breakdown of the marriage with Tracey if Miguna is such a perfect person? Miguna spent some time at the University of Nairobi and also in detention. Can we discuss the hard truths about all that really happened in those places?"Actually, these are not very different from the way Miguna has written his book. WHy should we judge RR by a higher standard than Miguna? It's OK for Miguna to make slanderous allegations about people in his book, but it is not OK for people to say anything about him!!!!
