LETTER TO JUKWAA'S MWALIMUMKUU @mukibi'S following this altercation/domestic
Perhaps it will prick his conscience seeing two young fellows taking the reigns of power after being democratically elected. Zimbabwe deserves better and hopefully the Kenyan experience will help change things in Zim. I have too many friends there hoping for better!
It will be a learning moment for most of African leaders. How I wish the other cowards hiding in South Africa could gather enough courage, be present at Kasarani and witness history in the making.
Japuonj Wadwa --(Mwalimu mwenzangu),
A balanced mind prone to sound judgment, with conclusions based on fact or logical deductions, is the best weapon we educationalists could bequeath a younger generation of Kenyans. But minds hyped to fake confidence, having been doped by hefty doses of propaganda, are in the first instance a big danger to themselves, and then a national risk.
You remember I displaced, or transferred my boy from TAHIDI HIGH and brought him to MUKIBI'S, thereby preferring to entrust him to the exalted tutelage of your enlightened staff.
Such confidence did I, and do I have in your abilities, Headmaster Sir, to mould future Kenyans. Mukibi's being not a shade less than the Great Eton that specialises in the manufacture of future British Prime Ministers.
However, I can see we are headed for a professional clash of tectonic proportions.
But first this: My contract with the TSC is being upgraded, and I will be deployed at the curriculum inspectorate. This could be part of Uhuruto rewards to fake Luos who helped fight Raila. More about that later. But however juicy the career bones cast to the Judases are, my professional integrity is a cause holier than the Kabaa in Mekka, holier than the clause which guarantees the pursuit of happiness in the American constitution, which then means historical objectivity is a value that, even if it may sound too idealistic in the sense that we humans are fallible, I do try to maintain with a zealots passion, or in the other case aspire to with fanatical virulence. So when you, the head of the esteemed Mukibi's, wrote in this august blog that Raila is a coward, I took note and thought about it, and sought to run it through various tests.
Raila Odinga has a whole arsenal of negative qualifications, or adjectives, that can successfully and dependably be used to encompass his character flaws, but me asserts COWARD rings hollow.
Onyango Oloo is technically right in terming this view revisionist, but that is the word of a red ideologue and we of the TSC give such a wide berth, indeed so wide as the half of the circumference of the earth. Me? I think you wrote this in the aftermath of one of those extended Friday staff meetings at Mukibi's, them meetings that end with generous doses of excellent scotch, courtesy of 'arrived' parents. It was therefore a slip of a rolling tongue, courtesy of a misjudged count of how many glasses of the heavenly brew the headmaster had downed. ---Revisionism my foot! d**n all Oloos of Kenya! much more so if they are Onyangos!
But, given the international reputation of Mukibi's and the international reputation of Jukwaa, and that you expressed this view publicly, I as a competent curriculum inspector can not let this pass without a strident hoot. You will understand.
Mwalimu you are the head of Holy Mukibi's for god's sake! Mukibi's where my only begotten son schools! A holy boy of sorts, begotten after much tail shaking and head nodding in many bedrooms, on the hunt for that single shot! yes, Alah Akhbar, so primitive can the drive for a male heir be in dark Afrika!
But so too, can the drive and aptitude for historical objectivity be, amongst the self-appointed custodians of the national narrative, like yours truly.
And this, headteacher sir! is where we butt heads in fierce clash, like gladiators in mortal combat. You the headmaster, I the curriculum inspector. You say Raila is a coward, I say that lesson is false.
We have a problem, at MUKIBI'S!
Careless tongues from excess parties of scotch whiskey?

NB: 1. Remember I told NowayHaHa, as he run amok on Jukwaa, spamming the board with junk mail in a stupor of celebratory blitz at UK's victory, that propaganda is allowed, but at Jukwaa Pyongyang, it is incumbent to re-enforce it a bit with some thinking and common sense. Consequently as the stupor has subsided, and payment too perhaps, NowayHa is off sleeping his hangover leaving his handle widowed of late. No doubt in his opinion it was a job well done, and now a deserved holiday, the presidency being safe.
You on the other hand, is a blogger of deserving respect. You can not be wished away, nor dissed as a hired hand --like phil and the rest of them rats that used to squeak CORD 24/7 here; nor can you be dismissed in the main as an adolescent drunk. You are too deliberate and deliberatively too fluent in own thinking; you are unusually innovative in punch-lines and your take on Kalenjin politics in the run to the elections, has of course rendered sages like Omwenga foolhardy, and shock-stunned tongueless.
A ranked pillar of Jukwaa then you be, so when you qualify Raila a coward, it is not just any Tom Dick Harry on a roll, it is an oracle, and thus must come in for a harsh call. Do the heavens concur?

NB2: Well, I think within my next parental call at Mukibi's, we could find time in your office to reach an accommodation or resolution of this slight matter, such that, subsequently, there would be no need for me to invite you officially to the Jomo Kenyatta Educational Foundation Curriculum office, for an official inquisition!
I know you can pull rank, with Ruto as your protector, but I could too, since Uhuru is with me on this one. But Why would we want to ruin the honeymoon so soon with this Jaluos matter? pulling ranks on each other before the coalition has even hit the road? Madness!
You see mwalimu, I need you to help bring the omena think-tank home, back here to where they belong. I mean the parochialism and vain glory that led handles like Job, Adongo, Tnk, Einstein to wither into the twilight chasing shadows, has now rendered them Quixotic laughing stocks buried in the dust of shame, and it shall need the exalted pedagogical touch of master teaches to rehabiltate them back to normalcy. They are good potential, and it would be a pity if we let them go to waste forever in traumatic shock. I insist you show the delicate touch which is what has made Mukibi the Eton of Kenya, regardless of the excesses documented in Tom Brown's School days, aka the graveyard of handles executed by Onyango Oloo!
You feel me sir?
NB 3: Forgot, but it will come up later.

on, with his booster on Jukwaa, NowayHa, soundly rubbing it in day by day. --Of course the race is not yet done, and there could still be nasty surprises ahead of the voyage, given the Skylla called called the ICC on one side, and the Karybdis which is Raila's petition before our very SC, on the other side of the straight.
