More than one million files that
had been missing or misplaced at
the lands registry have been recov-
ered in the two week reorganisation
and audit at Ardhi House in Nairobi,
Cabinet Secretary Charity Ngilu said
yesterday.
The registries all at Ardhi
House were closed from May 5
to May 16 for the re-organisation

More than 1m lost les found
after audit at Lands Ministry
period, all searches, stamp duty
and land rent payments and
application for valuation and
processing had been stopped,
affecting transactions like
payment for allotments, ap-
plications for subdivision of
land, settlement programmes
and land adjudication.
Ms Ngilu, the Lands, Hous-
ing and Urban Development
Cabinet Secretary, said that
about 1.3 million files can
now be accounted for after the
audit. They are in the Central,
Nairobi and Records registries
where records for Nairobi and
other counties are kept.
With the clean-up of the
records, land transactions at
the ministry are now expected
to take three days, down from
20 before the audit.
Mrs Ngilu said that following
success in Nairobi, scrutiny of
land records will now move to
the counties.
The two-week audit which
was conducted by students
from Kenyatta University and
Jomo Kenyatta University of
Agriculture and Technology
(JKUAT) cost the govern-
ment Sh67 million.
The closure of the three
registries sparked a dispute
between Ms Ngilu and the
National Lands Commission,
which went to court seeking
to compel Ms Ngilu to rescind
her decision. The commission
withdrew its case last week
after the court ordered that
the dispute be resolved through
arbitration.
We have been able to re-
trieve, record and re-shelve
1,322,800 les and records in
the last 10 days. We are warn-
ing those who are hiding les
that we will soon catch up with
them, Ms Ngilu said.
Nairobi registry had 134,000
les, while Central registry had
188,000 but the records reg-
istry had 1,067,480 les that
were recovered.
However, she said there were
over 500, 000 les that are still
being traced as the search at
the registries conrmed that
only 2.5 million files were
available and not the three
million that the Lands min-
istry is believed to have in its
registries.
Among the changes that
have been eected at Ardhi
House, she said, include the
installation of CCTV cameras
to beef up security and iden-
tify brokers and unscrupulous
agents who have given the min-
istry a bad name.
People searching for the
status of their land will now
need to go to a cyber caf,
download the documents and
bring them to Ardhi House
for the process to begin and
within three days they will have
all the information required,
she said. We have revamped
our web site to include search
forms, consent forms and valu-
ation forms which can now be
downloaded from the comfort
of ones oce, house or cyber
caf.
Principal Secretary Mariamu
El-Maawy said the Ministry
had procured the services of
two private consultants to de-
velop software in preparation
for digitisation of all les.
She said all the necessary
contract procedures have been
nalised and that the names
of the companies, which have
been engaged for similar con-
tracts in Rwanda, Uganda and
Tanzania, will be made public
this week.

Treasury taken to
task for slashing
Swazuri team cash
BY NATION REPORTERS
Parliament has questioned
the Treasurys move to reduce
the National Lands Commis-
sion budget from Sh1.9 billion
to Sh652 million.
The Parliamentary Budget
Oce (PBO) regretted that
although the House had
resolved that NLC be given
Sh1.992 billion, the printed
estimates show the amount
had been reduced by Sh1.34
billion.
Instead, a brief given to the
Committee on Lands by the
budget oce indicates that
the Ministry of Lands esti-
mates had been increased
from Sh15.5 billion passed by
the House to Sh21.7 billion or
a Sh6.1 billion increment.
In a presentation prepared
for the Budget and Appropria-
tions Committee, the PBO
criticised the manner in which
the Treasury reduced the al-
location for the commission
by 67 per cent.
Funds not allocated
It noted that whilst NLC is
supposed to establish County
Land Management Boards, a
key agship project of Vision
2030, Treasury had not allo-
cated money for it.
Mavoko MP Patrick Makau,
a member of the committee,
supported the higher alloca-
tion for the Lands ministry.
He said: The national
government cannot entrust
land matters to the commis-
sion because anything to do
with land is very sensitive and
the government must be held
squarely responsible, but the
commission cannot be held
squarely responsible.
What were supposed to
have is the ministry cleaned
of corruption so that we have
a Ministry of Lands that can
be trusted by Kenyans. The
commission was supposed to
come and clean that up and
when the President comes and
supports the CS in cleaning
up, thats good, Mr Makau
said.
Ocials unaware
When NLC chairman
Muhammad Swazuri, chief
executive ocer Tom Cha-
vangi and other ocials rst
met the committee, they said
they did not know how much
money had been allocated to
the commission in the esti-
mates.
Mr Chavangi said that if
the National Land Informa-
tion Management System and
the County Land Management
Boards are managed properly,
the commission would give
out 1.8 million title deeds in
the coming nancial year.
These two agships need
the support of the committee,
said Mr Chavangi.
But when committee chair-
man Mburi Mwiru pointed out
that the County Lands Man-
agement Boards appear not to
have been catered for in the
estimates by the Treasury, Dr
Swazuri was surprised.
We dont have these g-
ures. Were seeing them for
the rst time here, he said.
Mr Mwiru and Patrick
Makau (Mavoko, Wiper)
were similarly surprised and
told the NLC members that
in this day and age, they need
not wait for documents to be
delivered to them physically.
We are in the age of e-gov-
ernance. You can download
these documents from the
Treasury website, read them
and analyse and then come to
us, Mr Mwiru said.
The commission was then
given time to consult the PBO
for guidance before meeting
the committee again today.
We dont have these
gures. Were seeing
them for the rst time
here.

T
he name Hellen Nechesa
Machuka may not ring a
bell, but the high school
principal is Kenyas best civil
servant.
She scooped the award in the
Huduma Ombudsman Indi-
vidual Category awards held
last week.
Although the award came as a
surprise, its hard work that got
her to win.
I am humbled, honoured and
inspired. I have been doing what
I do because of the passion I have
for my work; little did I know I
would be recognised as the best
civil servant. I am challenged,
encouraged and inspired, she
said.
The principal of Kombeni Girls
Secondary School, Rabai, in Kili
County has made her school stand
out academically. The school also,
generates its own income to run
its activities, including bursaries
for the bright but needy girls.
She received the award for
distinction in efficiency, in-
novation and servant-hood in
public service, which she received
from President Uhuru Kenyatta
at the Kenyatta International
Convention Centre in Nairobi
last week.
She says all activities and
programmes at the school are
guided by a master plan, results
monitored and corrective action
taken promptly.
The plan drafted in 2008 has
seen the mean score rise over
the years from 2.5 to the current
4.5. There are 657 students tak-
ing Agriculture and Home Science
teacher.
Part of the strategy is involv-
ing parents, students, board of
management and community
members in managing the
school.
She says as the team leader she
sets the example for the teachers
and students, which inspires them
to perform.
My style is not to speak too
much, but let people do as I do
through being in class to teach
and waking up the students early
for prayers and morning preps,
she said.
In her bid to help needy stu-
dents and also achieve measure
of nancial independence for the
school, Ms Machuka has started
income generating projects at
the school, which has seen it
cut costs and run some of its
programmes, without asking
the parents to chip in.
The school, for instance, buys
sukuma wiki and milk, from
its own farm, thus generating
money.
The principal, whose teaching
career started in 1992, says she
wrote a proposal to the Finnish
government, which provided a
Sh2.4 million grant to put up a
school bakery, last November.
In its rst three months of op-
eration the bakery made a prot
of Sh486,000. Of this amount,
Sh300,000 has been directed to
the schools bursary fund, which
Ms Machuka started a few years
ago, using her salary to help bright
girls at her school.
Through her efforts, school
drop-out has been low, and the
students are motivated to work
hard to qualify for the school
bursary.
My role model is Dr Georey
Grin who founded Starehe Boys
Centre to help needy boys. I know
I might not be able to do the much
he did, but God will guide me on
how to go about it, she said.
An orphan she got from a
childrens home went on to get a
B Plus, and is now at university,
with a bright future beckoning,
she said.
The mother of four, who was
previously been voted Best School
Principal in Coast, and seventh
nationally, said she strives to
give love to her girls and be like
a mother to them, saying: I have
662 girls in my family. 657 are my
students, four my daughters and
a house help.
The award winner wakes up at
4.30am and leads the students in
prayers at 5am before they head
for the morning preps.
Speaking about her wooden
plaque with her name and rea-
sons she stood out, she says the
government should think of oer-
ing perhaps a car or cash reward
or even a promotion to motivate
civil servants to perform better.
She is also unhappy with lack of
promotion for teachers saying she
has been in the same grade Job
Group N for the seven years.
She urges fellow public serv-
ants: The question should be:
Am I earning a salary right-
fully?
She says her other motivator is
her supportive husband.

N
akuru, Nairobi, Kiambu,
and Kakamega are among
counties expected to send
the highest number of KCSE can-
didates to public universities when
the selection for the government-
sponsored regular programme
ocially starts today.
These counties have produced
the highest number of candidates
with an average grade of B- (minus)
and above in the Kenya Certicate
of Secondary Education (KCSE)
exams whose results were released
two months ago.
Although candidates who scored
C+ and above are qualified to
join universities, the cut-o for
the regular programme in public
universities has been set higher
with year because of the limited
number of spaces.
The Kenya Universities and Col-
leges Central Placement Service,
which replaced the Joint Admis-
sion board, has set a B- (minus) of
58 points as the least entry grade
for female candidates and a B plain
of 60 points for male candidates
who will be joining Kenyas 31
public universities this year. Those
who scored C+ and above but fell
below this years cut-o can still
join private universities or paral-
lel programmes oered by public
universities.
According to a Nation analysis,
Nakuru county produced the
highest number of candidates
who have qualied to join regular
programmes in public universi-
ties with 4,889. It was followed
by Nairobi with 4,797. Its neigh-
bour, Kiambu which has 4,162 was
third. Ironically, during the rank-
ing of counties when the KCSE
results were released, Nakuru
was ranked 19 while Nairobi was
ranked at number 29 out of 47.
Kiambu was number 37. Now they
have turned tables on the counties
that had better mean scores.
Many of the counties which
rated highly based on the mean
score of their students had fewer
candidates joining public universi-
ties under the regular programme.
Among them is Samburu county,
which topped the examinations
charts. Although the county had
the best mean score nationally,
only 159 of its KCSE candidates
scored B- (minus) and above.
The only exception is Siaya,
which was rated as the county
with the second best mean score
nationally. And now, gures show
that 3,603 of its candidates had
B- and above.
However, third best county in
the exams, Elgeyo Marakwet,
only has 1,331 candidates with
B- (minus) and above.
What these dierence between
counties like Samburu and Nairobi
indicate is that regions with fewer
KCSE candidates are more likely
to score highly when ranked in
terms of mean scores. Most of
the counties ranked as top per-
formers when the exams were
released are in arid and semi-arid
regions, which are also sparsely
populated. Because they had fewer
than 10,000 candidates, they had
better mean scores compared to
counties such as Nairobi, Ka-
jiado and Nyeri which have much
larger numbers of candidates. For
instance, Samburu which was
ranked position one nationally
only registered 969 KCSE can-
didates while Kiambu had 24,268.
That explains why Kiambu will be
sending more candidates to pub-
lic universities. Again, Kiambu is
home to several national schools
including Loreto Limuru, Mangu,
Limuru Girls, Alliance Girls and
Boys and Mary Hill Girls. At the
Coast, Mombasa has the highest
number of candidates (923) fol-
lowed by Kili with 598 and Taita
Taveta (444). Kwale has 362, Tana
River 71 and Lamu 49.

Nyakemincha sheds tail tag to
join top county schools league
BY NATION
CORRESPONDENT
Three years ago, a village in
Nyamira County made news
for the wrong reason.
Nyakemincha Primary
School, whose name means
tail, thrust Bonyamatuta Vil-
lage into the spotlight after
it brought up the rear in the
Kenya Certicate of Primary
Education examinations.
Since then, eorts have been
made to uplift standards in the
institution and its secondary
section, also called Nyakem-
incha.
The sustained campaign
has begun to bear fruit. The
Catholic Church-sponsored
St Peters Nyakemincha Sec-
ondary School beat academic
giants in the county, even
nationally, in last years Form
Four national exams.
The day school beat all odds
to remain among the three top
performers in KCSE examina-
tions in Nyamira County for a
number of years. The institu-
tion was ranked among the best
performing schools in Nyamira
South District.
The amazing performance
made the school the third top
performer in 2013 after Nyam-
baria Boys and Sironga Girls,
both national schools.
Out of its 76 KCSE candi-
dates, 57 scored C+ and above,
the minimum entry require-
ment for universities.
The school attained a
mean standard score of 7.7
or B- (minus). It was ranked
31st nationally among district
schools.
Four students from the
school scored a mean grade of
A (minus). Six others had B+
while 14 others scored B.
The schools Principal, Mr
Joseph Arama, attributed the
performance to commitment
of students, teachers and
parents.
My teachers have a passion
for excellence and are always
willing to work as a team, he
said.
Since the institution is a day
school, the sta teaches for
six days every week and usu-
ally covers the syllabus for
examination classes at the
end of rst term, according
to Mr Arama.
This allows students to
revise with the assistance of
teachers on dicult topics.
He said students admitted
to the school scored between
200 and 300 marks in the
Kenya Certicate of Primary
Education examination, add-
ing that it was a dicult task
to help them gain university
entry grades.
Lessons at the school start
at 6.20am and end at 7.40pm
with breaks for lunch and
games in between.
We have 10 lessons instead
of normal nine each day during
normal ocial working hours,
something that enables us to
cover the syllabus early to
allow us have more time to
revise with our students.
Overall, we have twelve les-
sons each day. Two of them last
for two hours each while the
remaining 10 take 40 minutes
each.
He said 50 minutes are set
aside for games and when they
end at 4.50pm, students go to
class for remedial lesions.
The Nation Media Group
recently sent a team from the
Daily Nation and Taifa Leo to
motivate the learners.
The institution has also
received assistance from the
regions elite and leaders.

P
ublic universities have less than
three weeks to return Sh1.6 bil-
lion they diverted to ineligible
expenditures to avert a strike.
The money is part of a collective
bargaining agreement (CBA) signed in
mid-March with the Public University
Vice-Chancellors Committee to end
a strike the workers had called.
According to details obtained by
the Nation on reimbursement of the
funds by each of the universities to
a common bank account, only Sh625
million has been returned.
All the 31 public universities and
university colleges are to return Sh2.2
billion by the last day of this month.
Only 10 institutions had cleared their
balances by last week.
The money was to be paid to the
more than 30,000 workers allied
to the Universities Academic Sta
Union, the Kenya Universities Sta
Union (Kusu) and the Kenya Union of
Domestic, Hotels, Education Institu-
tions, Hospitals and Allied Workers.
Last week, Kusu secretary-general
Charles Mukhwaya warned that the
unions would go on strike if the money
is not paid by May 30. Yesterday, he
maintained the position, accusing
university management of ignoring
their warning.
The agreement as we signed stated
that the money should be paid not
later than May 30.
We expect that they will meet their
side of the bargain but so far they have
not reached out to us to indicate they
will, Dr Mukhwaya told the Nation
on the phone.
We are aware that they have been
holding meetings among themselves
and consulting with the Ministry of
Education but as unions we have
not seen signs of that money com-
ing through, he added.
Within grace period
In response to the workers threats,
Education Cabinet Secretary Jacob
Kaimenyi argued that the universi-
ties were well within the grace period
given to them in the agreement.
The bottom line is that they should
wait until the end. The CBA says the
money should be paid by the end of
May. The end of May has not arrived.
When it nally comes and the money
hasnt been paid, we shall know how
to cross the bridge, he told the Na-
tion.
The details contained in a document
titled 2010-2013 Funds Transferred to
JAB indicate that only Sh625, 871,728
had been remitted to the common
account agreed in March by May 9.
That amount is from the University
of Nairobi, Kenyatta University,
Garissa University College, Chuka
University, and Moi University. Others
are Multimedia University of Kenya,
Technical University of Mombasa,
Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University
of Science and Technology, Maseno
and Kisii University College.
Kibabii, Taita Taveta, Embu, Rongo
and the University of Eldoret have
remitted some money, but they cu-
mulatively still owe workers Sh443
million from the March CBA.
Jomo Kenyatta University of Agri-
culture and Technology and Maasai
Mara owe workers Sh71 million, but
had not paid a cent by May 9.
It means 19 institutions have two
weeks to pay up Sh1,644, 810,084 to
workers or face indenite closure.
In March this year, more than
500,000 regular and self-sponsored
students were forced to miss out on
classes for 10 days after the unions
went on strike over what they said was
the diversion by vice-chancellors of
money meant for allowances to other
programmes.

Unease in Jubilee
over top State jobs
BY NATION
CORRESPONDENTS
The Jubilee Coalition
is facing what could be a
backlash with a section
of United Republican
Party leaders expressing
uneasiness in regard to
appointment of key gov-
ernment ocials.
MPs from Deputy
President William Rutos
URP said they have been
side-lined ever since job al-
locations and appointments
began late last year.
Led by Nandi Hills MP
Alfred Keter (below), the
MPs held several rallies
in Uasin Gishu and Nandi
counties over the weekend
with the same message
criticising the sacking
of National Youth Service
director Kiplimo Rugut
and crying foul over
State appointments that
favoured TNA.
Speaking during
an Education Day
at Kapsabet Girls
High School in
Nandi on Fri-
day, Mr Keter
criticised Mr
Ruto for remain-
ing silence on Mr
Ruguts sack-
ing. We
el ected

because of the respect
we had for Ruto. The DP
should be rm and ensure
that top civil servants from
the community are not re-
lieved of their duties with
no reason, he said.
Yesterday, Kapseret MP
Oscar Sudi, a close ally of
Mr Ruto, joined the fray by
criticizing the sacking of
Mr Rugut by Devolution
Cabinet Secretary Anne
Waiguru.
Mr Sudi was speaking at
a fund-raiser in Kapleketet,
Uasin Gishu County, where
he claimed a section of top

L
eaders of the Coalition for
Reforms and Democracy(Cord)
yesterday turned the heat on
embattled Nairobi Governor Evans
Kidero asking him to toe the Cord
line or be left on his own.
The politicians cautioned Dr Kidero
against associating with the Jubilee
government saying that he must be
committed to ODM and Cord if he
hoped to succeed in Nairobi county.
The leaders drawn from ODM and
Wiper spoke at a rally in Kibera, Nai-
robi during which they also renewed
attacks on the Jubilee Government
and announced the launch of nation-
wide rallies to dislodge the ruling
coalition from power. Dr Kidero did
not attend the rally.
The MPs and senators accused Ju-
bilee of failing to govern the country
and watching as insecurity soared and
tribalism and corruption thrived.
They said the government had failed
Kenyans and reversed gains made by
the country through fraudulent back
room deals.
Kicking o the tirade against Dr
Kidero, Machakos Senator Johnstone
Muthama said that Jubilee leaders had
lured the Nairobi governor to work
with them only to abandon him
after the Court of Appeal nullied
his election.
Dr Kidero was reinstated by the
Supreme Court which blocked his
removal until his application against
the Court Appeal ruling on a petition
by his rival Ferdinand Waititu is heard
and determined.
Mr Muthama also accused Dr
Kidero of abandoning Nairobi and
instead concentrating in Nyanza.
You should not take money from
Nairobi to Nyanza as you were not
elected by people of Nyanza, said
Mr Muthama.
Kakamega senator Bonny Khalwale
asked Dr Kidero to learn from what
happened to Amani coalition leader
Musalia Mudavadi when he agreed
to work with Jubilee. He said that
Mr Mudavadi was denounced by Ju-
bilee leaders hours after signing an
agreement with them on December
4 2012.
Kidero should know that he is our
son and we supported him and we
will continue to support him if only
he comes to the ground and talks
to people, said Gem MP Jakoyo

K
ampala University has
dismissed the verdict by
Ugandas higher education
regulator that Mombasa Gov-
ernor Hassan Joho fraudulently
obtained a degree certicate
from the institution.
Yesterday, Prof Badru
Kateregga, the institutions
vice chancellor, told reporters
in Nairobi that only the uni-
versity senate could revoke a
certicate that the institution
has issued to students and
that it was not the business
of any other agency to deter-
mine the authenticity of its
certicates.
No authority in Uganda
be it be the National Council
for Higher Education (NCHE)
or otherwise is clothed with
the legal mandate to recall,
cancel or revoke Mr Hassan
Johos degree apart from
Kampala Universitys senate,
he told a news conference at
the Serena Hotel.
As far as Kampala University
Senate is concerned, the degree
award to Mr Hassan Joho is
bona de, lawful and authen-
tic. The same was genuinely
awarded and Kampala Univer-
sity senate cannot and will not
recall, revoke or cancel an award
it deems to be valid.
Prof Kateregga was respond-
ing to an announcement last
Wednesday by NCHE that Mr
Joho obtained the degree out-
side the allowed procedure.
The council chaired by Prof
Nyeko Pen-Mogi adopted the
recommendations of a sub-
committee which had been
asked to investigate how the
governor obtained a Bachelors
degree from the university.
There was no clear evidence
that academic due process was
followed from admission to
graduation regarding a Bach-
elor of Business Administration
degree (Human Resource Man-
agement option) awarded to Mr
Hassan Ali Joho by Kampala
University, the council said in
a resolution.
In its April 30, 2013 report,
NCHE said it did not recognise
Mr Johos degree. However, the
university insisted that neither
NCHE nor Mr Johos political
competitors should tell the
world how authentic a degree
certicate is.

NCHE doesnt have pow-

BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Only one UK tour rm evacuated
tourists from the Coast, a tourism
assiciation has said.
Mombasa and Coast Tourist
Association (MCTA) chairman
Mohamed Hersi yesterday said
only TUI UK evacuated its clients
from hotels in South Coast.
Hotels in Mombasa, he said, are
still averaging between 30 and 40
per cent occupancy.
The MCTA ocial claimed that
the UK tour rm evacuated about
700 of its clients in the region last
week, and not 5,000 British tour-
ists as had been reported.
Before last weeks evacuation,
TUI UK used to make one ight a
week, bringing only 250 holiday-
makers to Mombasa, he said.
The tourists ferried by the UK
rm normally stay here for two
weeks. We wonder where the 5,000
gure came from, Mr Hersi told
Nation yesterday.
He noted that leading tour rms,
including Thomas Cook, Kuoni

have not evacuated their British
clients from the country.
We have several United King-
dom tour companies which still
support our tourism sector by
allowing their clients to continue

Coast hotels.
Tourists from the Scandinavian
countries, Germany and other

as CCTVs and scanners.

T
he United Nations has in-
troduced staggered working
hours and arranged for some
of their sta to work from home to
reduce their exposure in case of ter-
ror attacks.
These, among a raft of other meas-
ures, have been introduced to reduce
congestion at the UN complex and
its vicinity following the heightened
threats of terror in the country.
In a communication to sta, the
Director-General of UNON and
Designated Official for Kenya Ms
Sahle-Work Zewde noted that Kenya
had been a consistent target of terror-
ist groups over the last few months,
the latest tragic attacks being on 16
May at the Gikomba Market.
The UN is not immune from
these cowardly acts and we remain
concerned about your safety and that
of your family. In order to ensure that
your work environment remains safe
and tranquil, I shall be implementing
temporary measures immediate ef-
fect, she said.
She directed that access to the UN
Recreation Centre and the Commis-
sary be now restricted to UN Sta
only, and visitors will not be allowed.
Access will only be granted to those
with a valid UN Identication Card.
Please note that while we realise
these measures are an inconvenience
to you and your family, they are being
taken solely with your safety in mind,
she said.
Ms Zewde has also immediately
closed the UN Petrol Station, and
all staff members, agencies with
ocial vehicles will make alterna-
tive arrangements for fuelling their
vehicles. The petrol station is next to
the main entrance, directly opposite
the US embassy.
Persons without ocial UN busi-
ness will not be allowed entry to the
UNON complex. Members of sta are
asked to cooperate with this measure,
she added.
To avoid congestion within and
around the complex, all deliveries to
the UNON complex would be carried
out after working hours, between 6pm
and 10pm. Also, all deliveries will have
to be announced beforehand and the
registration number and names of the
driver provided to the Security and
Safety Service in advance.
Section heads have been directed
to encourage and exercise the utmost
flexibility in introducing flexible
work arrangements for sta. These
arrangements include staggered
working hours, telecommuting and
compressed work week. This will,
inter alia, reduce the congestion
along UN Avenue, she said.
Despite reports that the United
States envoy had asked for extra se-
curity, there was no visible increase
in security surveillance at the United
States Embassy or the United King-
dom High Commission, even after
reports that these two embassies
had requested additional security
personnel.
A check at both diplomatic facili-
ties revealed nothing more than the
regular guards at the gate, although
there was a group of General Service
Unit men outside the British High
Commission.
In a letter sent to US Embassy sta
on Friday and reported in the Sunday
Nation, US ambassador Robert Godec
said that Kenyan police ocers have
stepped up vigilance at the embassy
pending the arrival of more US ma-
rines from Washington next week.

Orange MP backs
Anglo Leasing pay
BY NATION REPORTER
An Opposition MP
has broken ranks with
his party and declared
support for the Anglo
Leasing payments.
Mr Abdikadir Omar
Aden (Balambala, ODM)
told the Nation that the
explanations by Treasury
officials and President
Uhuru Kenyatta when he
met the Budget and Ap-
propriations Committee
on Thursday afternoon
make a lot of sense.
Mr Aden (above), who
is also in the Budget team,
said what certain govern-
ment ocials did in the
past has placed Kenya in
the current circumstances
and even as the money is
paid, those responsi-
ble must be brought to
book.
Paying these commit-
ments is an international
obligation that Kenya
must honour as a
sovereign state. The con-
sequences of failing to
pay will be that the credit
rating of this country will
be extremely poor and we
wont be able to borrow
from the international
market, said Mr Aden.
He said the benefits
of issuing the sovereign
bond would trickle down
to Kenyans because the
government wouldnt
borrow from local banks,
which would mean that
banks lend to Kenyans at
lower interest rates.

F
ormer Permanent Secretary Sammy
Kyungu received goodies from one
of the faces behind Anglo Leasing
contracts.
Mr Anura Perera, the owner of First
Mercantile Securities, which was given a
contract to nance one of the agreements,
paid fees for daughters of the former Infor-
mation and Communication PS, according
to documents that were led in an Anglo
Leasing case.
The fees were paid on November 24,
2003. Other payments were made in No-
vember 2004 and January 2005.
From 1999 to 2003, Mr Kyungu was
the Director of the Communications
Commission of Kenya, before he was
appointed PS.
On July 11, 2002, he entered into a
contract with Spacenet International
Company for the supply and installation
of satellite communication equipment in
980 Kenyan post oces at a cost of US$
11.7 million.
Mr Perera had instructed his bank to
pay money out of his accounts to North
Hampton University for the benet of Hel-
len and Angela, daughters of Mr Kyungu,
says a court ling in the suit that First
Mercantile lodged against Kenya.
In the document, Mr Penera says he did
not know the beneciaries of his philan-
thropy and that he was contributing to
a harambee.
He says that he had been invited to con-
tribute to the funds drive by a Mr Samuel
Kiprono Chepkonga.
Mr Chepkonga worked as a secretary for
the Kenya Post and Telecommunication
Corporation, from 1994 to 1999.
He said he was conducting a funds
drive to nance university education of
Mr Kyungus daughters, according to the
documents.
It involved bringing together people
who gave money for a cause, particularly
the building of a church or university fees
for children who did not have sucient
nancial resources, said Mr Chepkonga.
He said he invited Mr Perera in 2001 to
contribute to the funds drive having known
him since 1995.
Anura Perera did not attend the collec-
tion of funds, but had promised to donate
money, several thousand pounds sterling,
he said.
Those payments took place as a result
of a collection of funds for the girls, organ-
ised on May 17, 2001, when Anura Perera
agreed to be responsible for Angela and
Hellen Kyungus school fees.
It was usual for businessmen to partici-
pate in collections of that kind.
According to Mr Perera, Mr Chepkonga
had explained to him that the collection
was for helping a student to study abroad
but he did not give specic details.
And Mr Chepkonga said the business-
man did not know whether the students
who had received his assistance included
children of
ministers or civil servants.
The only relevant question was for him
to know that the money was used for its
intended purpose.
Mr Perera also gave out about US$
25,000 to a public primary school, where
he was allegedly a member of the board
of governors.
During the negotiations for the nanc-
ing of the Spacenet contract, the company
claimed it would be nanced by the US
Exim Bank to undertake the deal.
In March 2002, Michael Alan , a repre-
sentative of Spacenet, had made an oer
for installation of the satellite system to
the Postal Corporation of Kenya.
The company claimed it had medium
term nancing from the United States
government.
Mr Musalia Mudavadi, then Finance
minister, sought conrmation of the -
nancing agreement. On May 23, 2002,
the US embassy informed him that the
Export Import Bank of the US had refused
to nance Spacenet for the contract, owing
to some arrears that Kenya owed it.
Four days later, Mr Kyungu asked
Spacenet to submit the draft contract
documents for the project to him with
the nancing agreement.
According to the documents, after Ky-
ungu sought to have the draft documents,
one Mr Samuel Bundotich, representing
the Ministry of Finance, entered into an
agreement for the nancing of the purchase
contract with First Mercantile.
First Mercantile was obliged to perform
the obligations of the Republic of Kenya
under the purchase contract, according to
the documents.

How Kenya lost case against paying Sh1.4bn
BY NATION REPORTER
Kenya, in arguing against pay-
ing the Sh1.4 billion in the Anglo
Leasing case, based its argument
on ve grounds which were all
dismissed by the High Court of
Justice in Geneva, Switzerland.
The court said from the outset,
Kenya alleged that one Sammy
Kyungu signed the Anglo Leas-
ing financing contract after
promises that his daughters
school fees would to be taken
care of by one Anura Perera,
the owner of First Mercantile
Securities.
From 1999 to 2003, Mr Ky-
ungu was the director of the
Communication Commission
of Kenya, before becoming
the permanent secretary in the
Ministry of Information and
Communication.
Earlier on, in July 11, 2002,
Mr Sammy Kyungu entered
the contract with Spacenet
International Company for the
supply and installation of satel-
lite communication equipment in
980 Kenyan post oces at a cost
of US dollars 11.7 million.
In its defence, Kenya said that
Anura Pereras assumption of
responsibility for Kyungus
daughters school fees consti-
tutes an act of corruption.
The court said that Anura
agreed to pay the fees in May
2001 yet the negotiations for
the nancing of the Anglo leas-
ing contract occurred in March
2002. Kenya took no measures
to invalidate or terminate the
purchase contract if it thought
it inappropriate, reads the court
ruling.
The nancial support agreed
by Anura Perera to Kyungus
daughters had no connection
with the conclusion of the -
nancing agreement and cannot
therefore be equated to an act of
corruption, said the court.
Kenya further argued that
its regulations were infringed
in connection with the conclu-
sion of the nancing agreement,
and that the contract was over
valued.
Kenya argued that the Postal
Corporation of Kenya where
satellite equipment were to be
xed across all its 980 branches
countrywide was not the entity
that signed the contract.
The State said that PCK is a
legal company that exists on its
own and as such, the ministry in
charge (Information and Com-
munication), had no mandate to
undertake the tender on behalf
of the corporation.
However, the court shove
aside the argument as lack-
ing pertinence adding that the
Treasury had only guaranteed
the loan, which was incumbent
upon it in line with the purchase
contract.
Furthermore, the defence al-
leged that public procurement
regulations of 2001 and the
telecommunications and postal
sector policy guidelines were al-
legedly contravened in award and
nancing of the contract.
However, the contract con-
tained express provisions which
were designed to prevent the
Republic of Kenya from invoking
any irregularity in its procedures
as grounds of defence against
any attempt to obtain perform-
ance of the contract.
The court thus overruled Ken-
yas argument saying although it
was aware of the irregularities
committed in its procedures, the
country proceeded to perform at
least some of the obligations in-
cumbent on it in the contract.
Kenya and First Mercantile
Securities both acted on the
basis of the mutually agreed
stipulation that all the re-
quired procedures had been
followed and the contract

N
ational Authority for the
Campaign Against Alcohol
and Drug Abuse is seeking
Sh2 billion from the government for
setting up rehabilitation centres for
alcoholics.
Nacada Chairman John Mututho
told the Budget and Appropriations
Committee of the National Assembly
that it would cost Sh44 million to set
up a centre in each county and pleaded
with the MPs for support.
Alcoholism can be treated but in all
our budget regimes and our approach,
that issue of treatment was ignored in
total. Even when we came here, there
was never a budget for rehabilitation,
said Mr Mututho.
Committee chairman Rev Mutava
Musyimi had invited Mr Mututho to
present his views on what the powerful
House team could do to stop deaths
from illicit liquor.
Mr Mututho was accompanied by
Nacadas acting chief executive ocer
Mr Enock Onchwari and a director
Mr Fazul Mohamed.
He said the authority plans to ap-
point alcoholic drink control ocers
in each county to spearhead an ag-
gressive ght against alcohol abuse, as
provided for in the Mututho Law.
Rehabilitation centres are neces-
sary because alcoholism needs to be
seen as a disease that needs treat-
ment, he said. Mr Mututho said these
centres would use a four-phase proc-
ess to rehabilitate alcoholics.
The first three months of the
process would involve conventional
rehabilitation in which the alcohol-
ics go through a 90-day treatment.
This would be followed a three-month
training akin to what National Youth
Service recruits undergo and another
three months refresher training.
Training
Mr Mututho said the last three
months would be spent on training
on entrepreneurship.
MPs directed Mr Mututho to de-
velop a strategy for implementing the
project in phases starting with regions
that are hardest hit by alcoholism, due
to huge costs involved.
Mr Mututho will also get a chance
to present the idea to the House
Committee on Administration and
National Security.

Two investors
lay claim to
100-acre land
BY NATION REPORTER
Two investors are ghting over
a 100-acre piece of land in Kiambu
County after both were allegedly al-
located the property by the National
Land Commission.
The commissions chairman, Dr
Muhammad Swazuri, allocated the
land to Mbukoe Investments and
Selby Falls Development Company
in January, according to documents
seen by the Nation.
That was after he allocated the
same property, last November, to
Thogoto Ukai Self-Help Group.
Dr Swazuri yesterday said his of-
ce had done clean transactions. He
did not give details.
According to letters renewing
the lease that had expired last
year, he had oered a grant to the
land to Mbukoe Investment Com-
pany, which is registered to one
director, at a standard premium of
Sh2.5 million.
The Nation has established
that the transaction is among the
reasons for wrangles between the
Lands ministry and Dr Swazuris
team.
An audit at the ministrys head-
quarters, which ended on Saturday,
found that at least 500,000 titles
could not be accounted for.
Investigations have been launched
by to establish their location.
Sources said Dr Swazuris oce
would be combed to verify claims
that he had locked in some les. He
denied that he kept away les.

S
ince no local court
has been able to try
and convict any of the
suspects in the Goldenberg
and Anglo Leasing scandals,
I would like to propose
that the International
Criminal Court be allowed
to try these suspects for
crimes against humanity.
And heres why. It is not
machetes and guns that are
taking the most lives in our
country; it is corruption.
The billions that were
stolen from State coers
could have fed millions,
equipped thousands of
schools, built dozens of
roads, improved hospitals
and paid thousands of
teachers and doctors.
Because the money
was stolen, hundreds of
thousands of Kenyans
are much worse o today
than they were yesterday.
Many have died because
money for healthcare and
other basic services was
diverted into the pockets of
a few greedy individuals. If
that is not a crime against
humanity, I dont know
what is.
Dozens of people have
also died in terrorist
attacks in the last three
years because security and
surveillance equipment was
not bought and installed due
to grand corruption.
If the Anglo Leasing
deals had not been made
with ghost companies,
Kenya would now have
a tamper-proof passport
printing system, a forensic
laboratory and a military
surveillance system. Since
the ghosts didnt deliver on
these deals, we are now in a
situation where we have to
hand over terrorists bodies
to foreign governments so
they can do the forensic
investigations.
Forget the hi-tech
equipment; most of our
police stations dont even
have working telephone
lines or clean toilets.
In a recent article
published in Foreign Policy,
British journalist Michela
Wrong wrote that the
culture of corruption seems
to have escalated under the
Jubilee government even
though many Kenyans
had high hopes that this
government would be less
corrupt than previous ones.
Since both President
Kenyatta and Deputy
President William Ruto
come from ethnic groups
and elites that have already
eaten, she argued, Kenyans
believed their government
would be less likely to enter
into corrupt deals.
When the Supreme
Court conrmed Kenyattas
contested electoral win in
March 2013, many Kenyans
comforted themselves with
the notion that the economy
was safe in the hands of
the same ethnic Kikuyu
and Kalenjin elite that had
dominated the economy
since the days of Uhurus
father, Jomo Kenyatta,
she explained. It was an
argument that mistook the
nature of human greed.
I agree with commentator
Peter Kagwanja when he
says that future generations
will judge Jubilee harshly
for perilously sleeping
through a revolution, and
perhaps losing the nation.
Tackling corruption once
and for all is the revolution
that Kenyatta promised. He
has yet to deliver on that
promise.
However, I disagree
with Kagwanja when he
suggests that the discourse
on corruption has become
racialised in that it is
part of Western liberal
internationalism that is
fast replacing human rights
as the pivotal foreign policy
doctrine.
Kenyans do not want
a corruption-free society
because some Western
government is advocating
it, but because the cost of
corruption is simply too
high for a poor society like
Kenyas to bear.
The Chinese, who are
our new darlings, having
replaced the West as our
benefactors, may tolerate
corrupt practices when
they engage with African
governments, but the
Communist Party of China
does not tolerate corrupt
ocials within the party and
is known to mete our harsh
sentences to those who
pilfer or mismanage public
funds. The Chinese know
that runaway corruption
has a negative impact on
the economy and service
delivery, and they are not
willing to compromise on
either.
Corruption within the
Police Servlce is also
compromising our security.
Last week, a Kenyan
Somali who was detained
at Pangani Police Station
for two weeks during the
Eastleigh raid told me that
every detained person at
the police station was being
asked for bribes. They
dont care if you are Al-
Shabaab, he said. They
just want the money.
He said that he found it
ironic that Kenyans who do
not possess an ID card are
being arrested, yet he had to
wait for ve years to get his.
Clearly many systems need
to be xed before we can
claim to be a safe country.

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT | Rasna Warah
Anglo Leasing and a corrupt Police
Service have made insecurity too real
Educate the public on
terrorism to save lives
T
he anxiety sparked by recent terrorist
attacks and the subsequent withdrawal of
British tourists from hotels at the Coast are
pointers that more needs to be done to crack down
on those perpetrating the attacks and at the same
time improve security in major towns.
Unless the security forces appear to be winning
against terrorists at home, there is a risk that the
public mood could swing from supporting the
countrys military action in Somalia.
Already, opposition politicians have started
calling for Kenyan troops to be withdrawn despite
the gains made in restoring peace in large areas
of the neighbouring country and cutting o key
economic links for Al-Shabaab.
The recent attacks targeting civilians are sending
the signal that terrorists will stop at nothing to
intimidate the population in the hope of making the
Kenyan military campaign in Somalia unpopular.
That is why the security agencies must do more,
not only to prevent attacks, but also to arrest those
planning them. Similarly, all agencies, including
foreign ones, should be encouraged to share
intelligence with the security forces in a manner
that will lead to prevention of possible attacks.
This should be done in a way that will not spark
public anxiety. As such, there is a need for greater
collaboration between Kenya and other partners if
the ght against terrorism is to be won.
The response from the police and other
emergency services during the Friday attack in
Gikomba was commendable and should set high
standards on how those tasked with saving lives in
case of emergencies should respond.
However, there were still numerous cases of
casualties being mishandled, which points to a need
to train the public on how to respond in the event
of disaster or terrorist attacks.
Relays expectations high
I
t might be the inaugural World Relays
Championships, but the expectations by
Kenyans are high when the championships go
down this weekend in Nassau, Bahamas.
While the focus will be on the middle distances
in 4x800m and 4x1,500m in both men and women,
the lessons learned by Athletics Kenya should be
vital in taking sprints serious, with Kenya only
taking 4x400m and 4x200n men teams.
The countrys expectations were heightened
when the womens team broke the 4x1,500m World
record twice within three weeks.
World 800m champion Eunice Sum guided her
team to a new record in the 4x1,500m on April 5
at the last leg of Athletics Kenya Series. The team
of World 5,000m silver medallist Mercy Cherono
erased the record with new times at the trials.
Athletics enthusiasts can only hope that the
training the team is receiving at Kasarani under
head coach Sammy Rono will be able to conjure
good results with at least four gold medals expected
in the middle distances.
With good teamwork and support, the 4x400m
and 4x200m can also stun critics, what with the
4x400m having featured at 2012 London Olympics
and 2013 Moscow Worlds.

NEW STRATEGY NEEDED | Ibrahim Mwathane
T
he National Land
Commission was
established to help
manage public land on behalf
of the national and county
governments. Besides the
mandate spelled out in Article
67 of the Constitution, extra
powers for the commission
were bundled in through the
National Land Commission
Act and the Land Act.
These extra powers are
tempered by some provisions
of the Land Registration Act,
which accords the Lands
Cabinet Secretary and the
Public Service Commission
powers to establish land
registries.
This eectively puts these
critical engines of our land
administration processes at
national and county levels
under the Ministry of Lands.
This law gives the
commission peripheral roles
in matters of land registries
too. Little wonder we are
now being treated to endless
arguments on matters
involving title deeds and who
should sign them.
Stakeholders are not entirely
surprised by the confusion.
Following the promulgation
of the Constitution in August
2010, the formulation of land
laws was delayed, leaving little
time for good background
research and review.
These laws were rushed
through Parliament in
early 2012, just to beat the
constitutional timelines. Due
to their complexity, Parliament
had to extend the timeline.
There were challenges
over process too. To stop
the furious turf wars in the
short term, the laws must
be amended to sort out any
inherent conicts.
But in the medium and long
term, Kenyans must devise an
appropriate model of a Land
Commission. Arrangements
in which the President and
the Commissioner of Lands
held sway over the allocation
of public land were routinely
abused.
While establishing the
commission, it was assumed
that professionalism would
govern the allocation and
management of public land
to support national and local
priorities. This is why the
commission was anchored
in the Constitution so that it
could have reasonable latitude
to make decisions.
But looking at events
in the last one year of the
commissions existence,
there are numerous emerging
concerns. Has the commission
worked in the best interest
of the country so far? Has
it demonstrated high-level
leadership? Is it able to
carefully navigate Kenyas
rough political environment?
Would it have done better
under political leadership?
Can it cope with the vast
mandate the Constitution
and the laws have bestowed
on it? Is it likely to do better
or diminish in stature with
time under the current
arrangements? Is it quite
feasible to totally delink the
allocation and management
of public land, a key resource
with political implications,
from government?
These are hard questions.
Ugandas land commission
is currently chaired by a
former Minister of Lands.
I havent interrogated the
reasons. But knowing that
such a chair fully understands
the sway land holds in the
countrys politics,
I guess this was Ugandas
way of ensuring that the
commission does not attempt
to operate outside the ruling
governments priorities and
interests.
Ghanas journey with land
commissions dates back to
1969. A land Commission
established under the 1969
constitution was chaired by
the Lands Minister, who, in
eect, subordinated its agenda
and priorities to those of the
days government.
To address this, Ghanas
1979 Constitution provided
that the Commission
chairman must not be a
minister or deputy minister
of state. This was written into
their Land Commission Act.
But it created institutional
problems since the
Department of Lands, which
held the records was left
answerable to the minister,
leaving the commission with
diculties in accessing the
very land records it needed for
eective operations.
Ghanas 1992 constitution,
which informed the Land
Commission Act of 1994,
redressed this by putting the
Lands Department under the
Land Commission. But to put
the key land institutions under
one roof, Ghana enacted a new
Land Commission Act 2008
through which the functions
of the commission, valuation
board, registration of title
and survey department were
merged.
But the chairperson and
members of the commission
are appointed by the
President and of course, these
appointees arent without
express political and party
aliations. Ghanas Land
Commission would, therefore,
nd it dicult to be politically
independent and neutral.
Kenyan authorities, too,
need to rethink the issue
in view of the endless
Commission-State feuds,
which have slowed down land
reforms and undermined
service delivery in the last one
year.

surveying and land information
management, and has partici-
pated in the national and con-
tinental land policy processes.

Lands Cabinet Secretary Ngilu:
Relations with NLC are dicult.
T
he security challenges Kenya
is facing have stirred up
unprecedented reactions. There is
increased pressure on the government to
seek solutions. Concern is also growing
about its eects on the economy.
Almost two weeks ago, days after Mr
David Ndii argued in his Saturday column
that economic growth is merely a means
to an end, another columnist, Mr Jaindi
Kisero, wrote that terrorist attacks were
not just about lives lost, but also about
the economy.
Now, it is reasonable to be concerned
about Kenyas attractiveness as an
investment destination, but the idea that
the importance of the economy could, in
any way, trump human life is worrying;
the dead cannot invest.
To the cold bodies at the City Mortuary,
our attractiveness as an investment
destination, the ratings of Kenya by Fitch
and Moodys, the booming real estate
sector and the euro-bond chit-chat count
for nothing.
Economic policies that downplay the
importance of human life are typically
pushed by those who are reasonably
condent that the problems which plague
the working poor will never befall them.
For such people, the loss of life during
conicts or from violent crime or unsafe
workplaces is not a problem to be solved,
but merely a lter through which to
extract the nimblest and toughest.
Take the case of Andrew Carnegie, an
astoundingly successful steel baron, who
today is remembered as a philanthropist.
The Economist cites the author of his
biography, Peter Krass, who writes that
deadly accidents in Carnegies steel
mills accounted for 20 per cent of all
male deaths in Pittsburgh in the 1880s,
and that newspaper lists of men killed
and wounded each year were as long as
a casualty list for a small battle in the
American civil war.
Another example is Thomas Leyland,
a slave trader and one time mayor of
Liverpool. He invested his earnings
from slave trade into a bank, Leyland
and Bullins. Through mergers and
acquisitions, it became the Midland Bank.
These people did wonders for their
countries respective economies, but their
wealth was soaked in blood.
Could our country be heading in this
direction? The trend seems clear. While
the Thika highway was already a dual-
carriageway before its recent expansion,
the highway from Mombasa to Nairobi,
remains for long stretches undivided.
Its planned expansion is clearly driven
by the need for Kenya to be regionally
competitive.
Had saving life been our rst priority,
that highway would have been widened
long ago and we would still have reaped
the economic benets. But for now, the
casualties continue to climb.
Saving life should be at the centre of
our economic goals, not an afterthought.
Our economy is expressed in numbers,
but it is people who give those numbers
meaning.

to act or bungled it. Ours is not a technology problem;
it is the users integrity.

THIS IS DISCRIMINATION. Can the Nairobi
City government assure Tim Oduko that it does not
condone any form of discrimination in the delivery
of services and provision of facilities and amenities?
Gitanga Road in Lavington is fairly good, but hell
breaks loose just after Rusinga School as one enters
Kawangware, he moans. It has potholes lled with
water mixed with sewage, thanks to broken sewer
lines. The poor people in this area feel discriminated
against. His contact is timoduko@yahoo.com.
BLESSING IN DISGUISE. As much as the majority
of Kenyans may not like the county commissioners
appointed by the central government, John Gitau
believes their deployment could just turn out to be a
blessing in disguise. We shouldnt entrust politicians,
who lack experience, with the management of public
resources. The county commissioners are proven
administrators, who have been serving in those places,
and a better bet than some of the governors, who are
plundering resources. His contact is johngitau@africa
online.co.ke.
SHODDY SERVICE. A frequent visitor to the Kenya
Revenue Authority headquarters in Times Tower in
Nairobi, Arthur Rubia says though there has been
some improvement, service could be better. After
queuing and being issued with an e-slip, one is asked
to go some 500 metres away to get a photocopy,
contributing to the crowding at the entrance. And
that is not all; the customer will be required to go to
the bank and go out again to have it photocopied. He
believes this can be streamlined.
KIMAIYO IS WRONG. A man well-versed in
motoring and legal matters, Dr M. K. Adalja, wading
into the controversy on tinted windows, says the
Trac Act states that only PSVs are forbidden to have
these. Upset by Inspector-General of Police David
Kimaiyo directive to all motorists to remove the tints,
Adalja asks: Has he taken over Parliaments law-
making role? He adds: Interior Cabinet Secretary
Joseph ole Lenku says courts will release private
motorists with tinted windows. Then what is the point
of taking them to court in the rst place?
THIS IS HARASSMENT. The massive resources
being used to stop and subject motorists to Alcoblow
tests, some of whom will only have taken a beer or
two of the sanctioned drinks, would be better used
to curb the distribution and sale of illicit brews that
have killed nearly 100 Kenyans in recent weeks, says
Bernard Odhiambo. The blanket targeting all motorists
at roadblocks, Bernard feels, amounts to harassment
of even law-abiding citizens after a legal outing. His
contact is maninga54.bo@gmail.com.

S
overeign bonds dont work
well where tourists are be-
ing evacuated, rhinos and
elephants are being wiped out, or
where terrorists routinely kill doz-
ens of civilians.
At the end of the 2012-2013 scal
year, the Treasury had Sh300 bil-
lion. This balance is slightly more
than double the amount we are
hoping to raise from oating the
bond. We can raise the funds we
need from our own taxes, you see.
Our hard-working Wanjiku pays
the myriad taxes imposed by the
Republic of Kenya most faithfully
until her death. And so do the
few responsible corporate citizens
Safaricom, East Africa Brewer-
ies, Kenya Airways, etc.
Even without oating the sover-
eign bond now, we can still grow
our economy and pursue Vision
2030, provided we plan well with
what we have and are honest about
service delivery to our people.
Vision 2030
For now, the only demands that
our people have on their govern-
ment are basic. They are patient,
reasonable, and know their priori-
ties well. They widely share the ide-
als of Vision 2030, because it rep-
resents their own personal dreams
and hopes.
However, until then, all that Ken-
yans seriously expect from their
government is to be safe and to be
heard whenever necessary, regard-
ing matters of collective interest.
Kenyans expect to get from their
government, fair and just treatment
in all the aairs of the State, with-
out discrimination, intimidation,
threat or treachery. It doesnt mat-
ter much to them now who in the
future will become their President
in 10 or 20 years. It matters most,
though that their government of
the day governs fairly, transpar-
ently, prudently, and faithfully as
provided by the people themselves
in their 2010 Constitution.
The demand for sovereign bonds
is not determined by a countrys
willingness to pay. It is inuenced
most by the countrys history. A
violent, troubled past or enduring
legacy of corruption, civil strife,
and ethnic tension can sink a
sovereign bond much faster than
honouring a bitterly disputed and
morally tainted debt.
Of course, those who buy sover-
eign bonds also look to the stabil-
ity, robustness, and direction of a
countrys economy. This is inu-
enced by a judicious, prudent, and
trusted political leadership.
In addition, sovereign bond mar-
kets rst consider the sovereign
credit rating. And it gives weight
to the degree of economic freedom
that exist in the issuing country, its
human rights record, as well as the
strength, integrity, and independ-
ence of its institutions.
Our sovereign bond issue will y
or sink, depending on how well our
government protects its traders in
Gikomba, or that herdsman who
unmasked mass-graves,

Indians have a reason to be the most optimistic people
The election of Narendra Modi, 62, of BJP, a former
chief minister of Gujarat State where he left a good
economic legacy, heralds a new dawn for India, the
most optimistic country on earth at the moment.
In a blind arms race that made India the largest im-
porter of arms on the planet, the former ruling party,
the Congress, built up an unsustainable current ac-
count decit that threatened stability of the rupee and
left growth stuck in a rut at 5 per cent.
The BJP win was so resolute, it will be the rst time
in 30 years a party will govern without a coalition.
This win was in no less part driven by big business,
but also a rst-time voting block of 140 million ambi-
tious tweeting youths hungry for the elusive job.
Like Kenya, the Indian economy has to pull itself
out of a bureaucracy that is not only extremely expen-
sive, but wasteful and corrupt. Kenyas civil service, in
particular, has been at the centre of economy-busting
plunder without any response from Government.
To our collective credit, Kenyas Constitution now
oers a real probability of basing future electoral par-
adigms on issue-based choices. Like Modis election
in India, our own Mutuas in the counties who con-
tinue to create new hope for the people using meagre
resources oer new choices away from tired dynastic
politics. In a sense too, you see the drive of the youth
who do not particularly care about tribalism.
KARIUKI MUIRI, Karatina
I beg to dier with Michael Mburu
(Nation, May 17), who attributed
consumption of illicit brews to exor-
bitant prices charged on legal brews.
What Mr Mburu ought to under-
stand is that curbing consumption is
a collective responsibility. If a whole
village decides to take poison, you
cant blame the government as it
cant police every individual.
Of the agents of socialisation
family, religion, schools, politi-
cal system, economic system and
institutions the family is the most
fundamental.
Failure to instill desirable values
early in life is what is contributing to
the misery and desperation exhibited
by Kenyans who are willing to drink
themselves to death.
KUNGU WANJIRU, Limuru
Bad upbringing is to
blame for brew deaths
Fridays explosion at Gikomba
market, which left a dozen dead and
a good number maimed should have
been a wake-up call on the authori-
ties to change tack in this war. The
tough talk by the President and the
predictable rejoinder by David Ki-
maiyo have not been eective.
Terrorists have become stealthier
in their operations and the police
have to keep up. We can no longer
just rely on re power if the police
have no intelligence on the activities
of terrorist cells. We should weed out
all the elements of this trade without
causing unnecessary harm to the
citizens. Lip service by the authori-
ties is no longer acceptable.
TITUS N. PALA, Kisumu
Lip service will not help
in war against terrorism
The decision of LSK chairman
Eric Mutua to demand the immedi-
ate resignation of AG Githu Muigai
is timely, given the unprofessional
manner his oce handled the Anglo
Leasing saga.
Even President Kenyatta publicly
reprimanded the AGs oce for los-
ing the case. Stranger still, is that
up to now, Kenyans dont know who
they are paying. This has never hap-
pened anywhere in the world.
The AG and top ocials at the
State Law Oce should do the hon-
ourable thing and resign as any con-
dence that Kenyans had in them
has been damaged beyond repair.
Prof Muigai must simply pack up
and go.

LET ACTION SPEAK: President
Kenyatta has declared terrorism an
act of cowardice. The irony is that
these cowards continue to success-
fully launch attacks as we, the brave,
lose lives, property, investors and
now tourists. This is because our
bravery is largely manifested in the
way the government talks tough!
Terrorism, just like any other vice,
cannot be eliminated by empty talk.
Action and decisive at that
must be seen; it speaks louder than
words. And stop blaming the West.
Tourists need to be safe.

CRIME-FRIENDLY LAWS: Our Con-
stitution must be the most friendly
in the world. It talks of our sover-
eignty and human rights. However,
the greatest beneciaries are the
criminals. They commit all manner
of crime and once apprehended, our
law allows them to bargain for their
release on bail. Sadly, activists will
loudly agitate for the rights of the
criminal but remain silent on victims
of crime. Laws must be made in
such a way that they act as deter-
rent. The terror we suer today is a
product of our bad laws.

BANANA REPUBLIC: Three things

pended their signatures on behalf
of the Kenya government? Second
David Kimaiyo giving orders against

MARK KARIIUKI, Nairobi
WEEP NOT, KENYA: When the Chi-
nese premier arrived in Nairobi for a
state visit, the rare 21 gun salute said
it all that the Jubilee government
had fully decided to point its eco-
nomic dimensions to the East and at
a level not seen before in the history
of both states. It was a done deal
that the West was obviously not go-
ing to blow a vuvuzela for. Travel ad-
visories are common, but the latest
evacuation of British tourists from
Coast seemed over-zealously done
and for sure, has dented Kenyas
image, putting it in the same league
with South Sudan and Somalia.
However, we should not lose hope.

T
he umbrella trade union has
demanded the release of the
Ethics and Anti-Corruption
Commissions ndings on the Tas-
sia housing project scandal.
Central Organisation of Trade Un-
ions (Cotu) chairman Rajabu Mwondi,
in press statement, said yesterday that
the union would accept the outcome
of the investigation and bring to rest
the matter.
He said the delay in making the
ndings public was a ploy to conceal
the truth in the hurried and suspi-
cious approval of the Sh5 billion
project.
In January, Labour Cabinet Secre-
tary Kazungu Kambi requested the
anti-corruption agency to investigate
the National Social Security Fund
(NSSF) board over the project.
Mr Mwondi said the infrastructure
development for Nairobis Tassias es-
tate was implemented before it was
taken to the NSSF board of trustees
for discussion and approval.
We are yet to witness any ac-
tion from the Kenya Government
despite all the efforts that we, as
an organisation, have made to avail
every information required to facilitate
investigations.
He said the EACC had remained
silent when other institutions such
as the Parliamentary Investments
Committee and the Commission on
Administrative Justice had released
their reports on the matter.
EACC silence continues to cause
anxiety and agony among the Ken-
yan workers and their leaders who
are eager to know the individuals be-
hind the fraudulent approval of such
a colossal sum of money from the
workers funds, said Mr Mwondi.
He said the matter had degenerated
into intimidation, harassment and
witch-hunt on the NSSF employees
by the funds management to divert
attention.
Most workers at the NSSF are now
in a state of fear and panic over grow-
ing victimisation of those perceived
to have had prior information on the
matter, said Mr Mwondi.
Parliamentary Investments Com-
mittee, chaired by Eldas MP Adan
Keynan, has recommended that the
anti-corruption commission investi-
gates all major controversial projects
undertaken by the NSSF.
The watchdog further asked the
commission to investigate why a
majority of the funds projects were
awarded to China Jiangxi Interna-
tional (Kenya).

Publishers back TSC over nursery tutors
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Textbook publishers have opposed
the hiring of nursery school teachers
by county governments saying it was
the mandate of the Teachers Service
Commission (TSC).
Kenya Publishers Association
(KPA) chairperson Lawrence Njagi
said even though the Constitution
mandates the county governments
to oversee pre-primary education and
early childhood education, hiring by
TSC would ensure uniform standards
are applied across all counties.
County governments should leave
the hiring to TSC and instead focus
on providing the infrastructure to
improve the eectiveness of ECDE
by building classes, buying learning
materials.
This will ensure standards of em-
ployment for these teachers are equal
across all counties, said Mr Njagi.
He was speaking at Meru Technical
Training Institute during the North
Imenti sub-county education forum
held at the weekend.
The Kenya National Union of
Teachers has also opposed the move
saying that TSC is the only agency
mandated by the Constitution to
employ teachers.
Among the counties that have
nalised the employment of ECDE
teachers are Meru, Bungoma, Kisii,
Bomet and Vihiga.
Mr Njagi said ECDE has been ig-
nored for long and noted that counties
were now better placed to come up
with policies that will improve pre-
primary education. He observed that
many children continue to under
perform in primary and secondary
schools due to lack of access to early
childhood education.
At the same time, KPA has raised a
red ag over unscrupulous booksell-
ers who are beneting from the free
education funds.
He said some headteachers have
been colluding with briefcase book
sellers to purchase textbooks that
have not been recommended by the
Ministry of Education.
The government through the
Education Ministry should tighten
the audit of schools so that errant
headteachers who cut deals with
the fraudulent booksellers to eece
schools face the law, he said.

Boys arrest

army arrested a 12-year-old boy at
Kamrel village in Pokot County.
Lokany Longuratukei, is said to
have been seized by the Uganda
Peoples Defence Force soldiers

T
he Council of Governors
will move to court should
President Kenyatta stick
to his decision to delegate his
powers to county commission-
ers.
Council chairman Isaac Ruto
said the Presidents decision to
give the commissioners more
powers was a scheme by the
Jubilee administration to un-
dermine county governments.
By giving commissioners
the powers to give instructions
to the police, the President is
merely re-introducing the dra-
conian and outdated laws that
required politicians and other
people to seek permits to hold
rallies or other forums. We
cannot allow this to happen,
he said.
Jeopardise gains
The Bomet governor made
the remarks at Simoti Mixed
Day Secondary School at the
weekend during the institutions
prize-giving day.
Konoin MP Sam Koech and
the area MCA William Mosonik
accompanied the governor.
Mr Ruto said the move
would jeopardise the gains of
devolution that Kenyans at the
grass root level were currently
enjoying.
While launching the new
structure last week, the Head
of State mandated the commis-
sioners to represent national
governments in their areas,
chair security talks and disci-
pline sta.
The former Chepalungu MP
added: Kenyans should be
given the opportunity to enjoy
the expanded democratic space
as enshrined in the Constitution
instead of the Jubilee adminis-
tration taking the country back
to the days of authoritarian-
ism.
Mr Ruto claimed that the
county commissioner in his
county had started executing the
excessive powers by blocking the
construction of sub-county and
wards oces in the region.
Build oces
He said both the county
and national governments
were serving the same people
and wondered why the com-
missioner in his county was
opposing the setting up of the
structures meant to take serv-
ices closer to the people.
He cited the construction
of sub-county offices in
Chepalungu and Bomet Cen-
tral constituencies and ward
oces in Cheptalal and Nda-
nai as some of the structures
that had been blocked by the
national administration.
But according to Bomets
deputy commissioner Josphat
Mutisya, the grounds on which
the county government wants
to build offices to house the
national administration team
belong to the national govern-
ment.
He advised the county govern-
ment to look for its own land to
set up the buildings.

Clerics warn of tension after ocials given more powers
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Church leaders yesterday warned
that conict of interest was likely to
ensue in devolved units after President
Kenyatta gave county commissioners
more powers.
Kisumu County National Council of
Churches of Kenta chairman Joshua
Koyo said that the Head of State is
threatening the future of devolved
governments through the move.
Bishop Koyo told a congregation at
the Episcopal Church of Africa in Kis-
umu that the commissioners should
work under the governors, although
they represent the interests of the
national government.
Prof David Kodia of St Stephens
Anglican Church in Kisumu said del-
egating excessive powers to county
commissioners was reminiscent of
the old days of dictatorship.
The county commissioners regalia
is a reminder of the old days. It is a
symbol of an authoritarian system of
government, the don said.
Conict of interest
Prof Kodia, who is also the principal
of the Bishop Okulu College of the
Great Lakes University, said giving
excessive powers to the commission-
ers will result in conict of interest.
You cannot give powers to an ap-
pointee at the expense of Kenyans
who elected a leader of their choice.
These gimmicks are going to bring
tension in counties, he said.

MIGORI | UDF leader accuses government of tribalism in hiring of security ocers
BY ELISHA OTIENO
elisha_otieno@yahoo.com
U
nited Democratic Forum
leader Musalia Mudavadi
has hinted that the Amani
coalition may soon withdraw from
the Jubilee alliance.
He said they will forge an alliance
with other like-minded parties to keep
the government in check.
Mr Mudavadi has been under
pressure from his partys MPs to
leave Jubilee amid a general feeling
of marginalisation of the western
region.
The former Deputy Prime Minister
said the Amani coalition was ready
to embrace progressive ideas from
leaders in other parties.
In politics, anything is possible.
We are not permanently allied to the
Jubilee Government, Mr Mudavadi
said at the weekend in Benga Village,
Uriri, Migori County, during the burial
of Rev George Kivandah.
There are no permanent enemies
in politics and we will review our stand
in the wake of failure by Jubilee to ad-
dress problems aecting Kenyans.
The government of President
Kenyatta has engaged high gear to
kill devolution through creation of a
powerful county administration. What
he is doing is illegal and runs contrary
to the tenets of the Constitution, Mr
Mudavadi said.
The UDF leader claimed the Head
of State was putting in place parallel
centres of power through creation of
powerful county commissioners.
We will ght to the bitter end to
protect the Constitution and our 47
governors, he added.
Mr Mudavadi further accused Mr
Kenyatta of making one ethnic group
dominate security agencies.
Security system
Insecurity has partly been caused
by the Presidents move to make our
security system a one-tribe aair.
The rest of Kenyans have, therefore,
stopped passing intelligence to these
ocers, he said.
Our security establishment does
not reect the face of Kenya and this
is very absurd, Mr Mudavadi said.
He pointed out that the new wave
of impeaching governors presented
an internal threat to devolution.
The law should, therefore, be
changed to raise the impeachment
bar higher so that members of county
assemblies do not use that clause to
settle personal scores with their
bosses, Mr Mudavadi said.
Two governors, who accompanied
Mr Mudavadi, Mr Okoth Obado
(Migori) and Mr Moses Akaranga
(Vihiga), said that terrorism posed
a major threat to socio-economic
development in the country.

the residents of Laikipia,
Ngobit County Assembly
member Mwangi Kamakia
said.
He told security agents to
vet workers in the surround-
ing wildlife ranches, whom,
he claimed, were abetting
cattle rustling.
Residents, however,
blamed chiefs for failing
to enforce by-laws meant
to be observed by villagers
and herders from outside the
area to ensure peace.
Herders bringing their ani-
mals to the area supposed to
be vetted by 10 elders from
each community before they
can graze in the area.
They told the security
team led by district ocer
Maina Ngunyi that the sys-
tem collapsed after the chiefs
started selling pasture to
the migrant pastoralists.
Wanted to access
These women were killed
because of pasture. They
were living in an area with
very good pasture and some
people wanted to access it,
Mr James Lepuyo said.
The residents said destruc-
tion of six dams by heavy
rains last December was
forcing people and livestock
to compete for the resource
leading to insecurity.

Kalonzo faults State
over Konza storm
BY NATION
CORRESPONDENT
Former vice-president
Kalonzo Musyoka accused
the government of using
Lands Cabinet Secretary
Charity Ngilu to cause divi-
sion by declaring that Konza
City is in Machakos.
We wont allow Ngilu to
infringe on our rights as Ken-
yans, said Mr Musyoka.
The Cabinet secretarys
declaration is a deliberate
tactic to divide the people
of Ukambani, he added.
He said the proclamation
was also a ploy to delay the
construction of the techno
city.
Former president Mwai
Kibaki and I declared that
Konza should be in Makueni
as we purchased the land
from the county, said Mr
Musyoka. He spoke in Waia
Village, Mbooni constituency,
during the seventh memorial
service of Mr Kisoi Munyao,
who hoisted the Kenyan ag
on Mt Kenya during the 1963
Independence Day celebra-
tions.
The former vice-presi-
dent urged the Independent
Electoral and Boundaries
Commission (IEBC) to give
the exact location of Konza
City.
At the same time, Matun-
gulu MP Stephen Mule said
Machakos was contented
with its recently-launched
city and is not concerned
with the location of Konza.
Our own city
We in Machakos dont
need Malili. We launched our
own city since we knew that
Konza belongs to Makueni,
said Mr Mule.
Kilome MP Regina
Ndambuki said that as a
leader from the disputed area
she will not allow Konza to be
moved to Machakos uncon-
stitutionally. She asked IEBC
to explain to her where she
really belongs since she was
elected in Makueni.

Pay retirees or go to
jail, TSC boss told
BY WANJIRU MACHARIA

lwmacharia@ke.nationmedia.com
A
TSC ocial risks six
months in jail if the
commission fails to
release Sh3.34 billion owed to
retired teachers.
Teachers Service Com-
mission secretary Gabrel
Lengoiboni was given 90 days
by a Nakuru court to have the
money released or face the
jail term.
The retired teachers won a
suit they had led, where TSC
was ordered to release the
money in unpaid pension as
budgeted for by the Treasury in
the 2011/2012 nancial year.
High Court Resident Judge
Justice Anyara Emukule on
Friday last week ordered
Inspector-General of Police
David Kimaiyo to arrest and
jail Mr Lengoiboni at the Ka-
miti Maximum Security Prison
if he fails to release the money
in three months.
On February 18, the more
than 52,000 ex-teachers who
retired in or about 1997 asked
the court to jail Mr Lengoiboni
for contempt, after he deed
orders directing him to pay
them the Sh3.34 billion, which
is part of their salary and pen-
sion arrears.
They accused him and Di-
rector of Pensions Ann Mugo
of disobeying court orders is-
sued by Justice William Ouko
on April 23, 2012.
The pensioners, through
The Retired Teachers of 1997
Group, sued TSC in 2006,
claiming unpaid lump sum
salary increments and accrued
pension from July 1997.
The teachers won the case
when Mr Justice David Maraga,
ruled that all retired teachers
covered by the agreement dated
October 11, 1997, between the
TSC and Knut were entitled to
their retirement benets based
on the entire salary increment
contained in that agreement.
Eorts by the TSC to chal-
lenge the award through the
Court of Appeal were futile
as the three judges, Moijo ole
Keiwua, Onyango Otieno and
Joseph Nyamu declined to re-
verse the decision that ruled in
the retired teachers favour.
The case will be mentioned
after 45 days.

School girls

man in lodge
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Two underage girls and a boda
boda rider were arrested at a
guesthouse in Nyamira Town at
the weekend.
The 32-year-old man was found
with the minors after the Chil-
drens Department was informed
that he was planning to get into a
rented room with two girls aged
14 and 15.
Nyamira County Childrens
Director Samuel Masese said the
culprit was arrested as he entered
the building with the girls.
He had hired a room during the
day, but waited for dusk to sneak
in the minors, who are students at
a nearby secondary school.
Mr Masese also rented a room in
the same building for a childrens
ocer, who arrested the culprit
with the girls.
The students, who are both in
Form One, and the boda boda man
were detained at the Nyamira Po-
lice Station. The man will appear
in court today.
Mr Masese warned guesthouse
owners that they would be arrested
and their businesses closed down
if found allowing underage children
into their premises for sexual ex-
ploitation.

EMBU | Embattled governor says he will not leave oce
Wambora says ouster

E
mbattled Embu Gover-
nor Martin Wambora
yesterday vowed not to
resign, saying he was unfairly
hounded out of oce.
He was optimistic that the
impeachment process car-
ried out last week would be
overturned on the weight of
35,000 signatures collected
by an Embu council of elders
ocial.
Speaking during inter-de-
nomination prayers at ACK
St Pauls Cathedral in Embu
town, Mr Wambora (right)
maintained he was innocent
of the allegations against him,
saying he abhorred graft.
He said he had graduated
from a seminary, worked as a
senior provincial administra-
tion ocial overseeing a Sh60
billion budget and was never
implicated in corruption.
I learnt to obey the laws
and I have lived up to it for
the last 20 years. I have never
touched a single cent belonging
to public. I used to adminis-
ter over Sh60 billion and Ive
never been accused of looting.
I thank the elder who has col-
lected 35,000 signatures.
That is the reason the court
has given me that relief and
said I should continue serving
until the case is over. Those
who have been asking me to
resign, I told them I can only
resign when the voters ask me
to, he told the congregation.
However, Embu Senator
Lenny Kivuti said County
Assembly members should
be allowed to carry out their
oversight roles saying corrup-
tion had permeated into county
governments.
The county governments
must be accountable to the
people. No two ways about it.
That is why we have MCAs to
oversee the county executive
and Senate to oversee the
counties, he said.
Mbeere North MP Charles
Njagagua lauded the church
for seeking dialogue and
uniting leaders but expressed
concern that countys develop-
ment had slowed down due to
wrangles.
But Womens Representative

were just teething problems
and would be overcome.

BLANTYRE, Malawi, Sunday
M
alawis Joyce Banda, under
the cloud of a huge corrup-
tion scandal and a donors
aid freeze, is ghting to hold on to the
presidency in an election on Tuesday
in one of the closest races ever in the
tiny southern African state.
Voters will decide whether to stick
with former vice president Banda who
came to power after the death in of-
ce of president Bingu wa Mutharika
two years ago.
Her bid to be elected president in
her own right is overshadowed by a
scandal involving the disappearance of
$30 million from the national coers
that rocked the dirt-poor country last
year. Mrs Banda, who had launched an
anti-graft crusade, ordered the audit
that revealed the theft known as
Cashgate and charges have been
brought against 68 ministers, civil
servants and business people.
Mrs Banda denies any personal
involvement in the scandal, saying
in fact Cashgate is her trump card
and will not damage her performance
at the polls.
In fact thats my greatest achieve-
ment, she told reporters before her
nal campaign rally, adding that the
graft had been going on before she
came into oce.
But her opponents charge that she
and her supporters have syphoned o
public money to fund her campaign
and handouts to voters ahead of the
May 20 presidential, parliamentary
and municipal elections.
Donor nations which nance a large
chunk of Malawis budget have pulled
the plug on $150 million in vital aid
over the scandal.
It has also led to a heated presi-
dential race that an Afrobarometer
survey shows is too close to call.
Although there are 12 hopefuls, the
real contest is between Banda and
three other candidates, including her
predecessors brother.
We have never really had elections
that are this close, that are really hard
to call, said Boniface Dulani, Afroba-
rometer coordinator in Malawi.
Malawis 64-year-old rst woman
leader could also face a backlash from
voters over her eorts to reform the
economy, which had earlier won in-
ternational plaudits.
A campaign ad on state television
MBC shows an old clip of IMF chief
Christine Lagarde praising Banda as
a mature leader t to rule Malawi.
But her austerity reforms included
a sharp devaluation of the kwacha
currency which hit the poor hard in
a country where nearly half of the 15
million citizens live on less than a dol-
lar a day. A lot of economic measures
that she has taken, that have been
lauded by the international commu-
nity in many respects, have eroded
her domestic support, said researcher
Aditi Lalbahadur of the South African
Institute of International Aairs.
Blantyre voter Nickson Simango
agreed.
We dont want Banda to rule this
country again, things will only get
worse, he said.
And of course Cashgate has given
ammunition to Bandas rivals. They
accuse her of abusing state resources
for her campaign and of vote buying
by doling out motorcycles and bags
of the staple maize meal.
Cashgate was very wrong, Mr
Peter Mutharika, one of her strong-
est challengers, told AFP.
He alleges it was Bandas govern-
ment that set up a syndicate to syphon
the money from the treasury to her
election coers.
Mr Mutharika, 74, is promising vot-
ers to return Malawi to functionality
by continuing the work of his older
brother, the deceased ex-president.
Detractors accuse Mr Mutharika of
being power hungry, claiming he tried
to hide news of his brothers death in
2012 by ying his body around Africa
in bid to prevent Banda from coming
to power and to stage a constitutional
coup.
Another strong contender is Laza-
rus Chakwera, 59, leader of the party
of ex-dictator Kamuzu Banda who ran
the country as a single party state for
more than three decades after inde-
pendence from Britain in 1964.
The fourth top candidate is Atupele
Muluzi, 36, the son of retired president
Bakili Muluzi.
With little dierence in the candi-
dates promises to boost the economy,
create jobs and oer agricultural sub-
sidies, voting patterns are likely to be
split along regional lines. (AFP)

Ugandan LRA rebel chief Kony promotes son, says army
KAMPALA, Sunday
Ugandas notorious rebel
chief Joseph Kony has named
his son as deputy head of
his Lords Resistance Army
(LRA), a guerrila force infa-
mous for its extreme savagery,
the army said today.
Salim Saleh, reported to
be aged 22, is understood
to have spent his entire life
in the bush with his fathers
force, which continues to defy
international eorts to hunt
them down.
Previously the son was in
charge of the group providing
security to the father, but now
he has an added responsibility
of eld command, top Ugan-
dan general Sam Kavuma told
AFP. Kavuma claimed it was a
sign that Konys control of the
force has been weakened, with
ghters now split into several
autonomous gangs.
Long since forced from
Uganda, the rebels roam
remote forest regions of the
Central African Republic,
Sudan, South Sudan and
the Democratic Republic of
Congo.
The role of the son is an in-
dication Kony has lost contact
with most of his commanders,
some who have been killed by
our forces and others are in
disarray. (AFP)
Jet bombs
al-Shabaab
base in
Somalia

NATION Correspondent
Mogadishu, Sunday
An unidentied ghter jet struck
at a location three kilometres south
of Jilib town, about 410 km south
of the Somali capital Mogadishu,
on Sunday morning.
Reports indicated that the
plane was flying at low level
when militants loyal to the radical
Islamist group al-Shabaab aimed
at it with anti-aircraft re.
The plane responded with re,
residents reported, indicating that
the plane came from the direction
of Kismayu town, the main port
town in the Juba regions of
Somalia.
Jilib town is about 90 km north
of Kismayu, the main station of
peacekeepers from Kenya and
Sierra Leone that are serving
with the African Union Mission
in Somalia (Amisom).
Al-Shabaab released no
statement. However, the Al-
Qaeda linked movement mobilised
more militants in and around Jilib
town in reaction to the bombing
incident.
Kenyan war planes did strike
last year parts of Lower Juba,
Middle Juba and Gedo regions
where thousands of Kenyan
forces are stationed and operate in
pursuit of Al-Shabaab jihadists.
No casualties has so far been
confirmed in connection with

JUBA, Sunday
P
eace talks between the
South Sudan government
and rebels headed by
former Vie President Dr Riek
Machar have been postponed,
ocials have conrmed.
The two parties were discuss-
ing a le on reforms, transitional
government and the constitution
in the hope of signing a Declara-
tion of Principles.
The talks are aimed at ending
a ve-month violence that has
killed about 10,000 people and
displaced 1.2 million others from
their homes since December.
The fighting pits President
Salva Kiirs millitary against
a loose coalition of dissenting
soldiers and millitias headed
by Mr Machar in a conict that
has taken on a dangerous ethnic
undertone.
The Intergovernmental Author-
ity on Development (Igad), which
is mediating the peace process,
postponed the talks to May 29,
according to rebel spokesman
Yuanis Musa.
Mr Musa said the two sides,
holding the talks in the Ethio-
pian capital Addis Ababa, could
not agree on the security docket
because of foreign troops inside
the country.
The rebels have been demand-
ing the withdrawal of Ugandan
forces, which went into the coun-
try a few days after a December
15 failed coup in Juba to protect
crucial installations such as the
aiport.
Mr Kiir blamed the coup on Mr
Machar, who inturn denied the
plot and accuse the President of
a political purge.
The talks were also stalled over
the meaning, duration and the
role of a transitional government
that would lead the country until
elections are held.
In the days leading to May 29,
Mr Machar will embark on trips
to several East African coun-
tries, including Kenya, Somalia,
Djibuoti and Sudan as IGAD has
initiated, Mr Musa said.
It is to make our position
that we are really committed to
peace and this conict cannot
be resolved through gunre but
through negotiation, Mr Musa
told a UN radio on Sunday.
A senior government ocial
who does not speak for the
negotiation team conrmed the
adjournment to Africa Review but
could not divulge any details.
Mr Kiir and Mr Machar signed
a deal more than a week ago to
cease hostilities, but it failed to
hold.
However, accusations and
counter-accusations of attacks
between the two parties rela-
tively subsided at the end of the
week. Last week, South Sudan
petitioned Igad on the repeated
violations by the rebels of the
peace deal.
The military said the rebels
have taken advantage of the
ceasere to mobilise and attack
government positions in the oil-
rich Upper Nile and Unity states
as well as in the vast and restive
Jonglei.

KHARTOUM, Sunday
S
udans state security
arrested yesterday op-
position leader and
ex-premier Sadiq al-Mahdi,
his secretary said, after he
reportedly accused a coun-
ter-insurgency unit of rape
and other abuses of civilians
in Darfur.
At 8:45 pm (1745 GMT)
a number of state security
ocers came to the home of
imam Sadiq Al-Mahdi with a
warrant, and they arrested
him, his secretary, Moham-
med Zaki, told AFP.
An official from Mahdis
opposition Umma party
said agents arrived in two
pickup trucks and several
cars to arrest Mahdi, one of
the highest-profile figures
to be detained in Sudan in
recent years. The National
Intelligence and Security
Service (NISS) has the right
to detain people for more than
four months without judicial
review.
Earlier on Saturday Mr
Mahdi had addressed thou-
sands of people in Gezira
state, south of Khartoum.
He told them it was time
to end the countrys silence
over activities of the security
service, witnesses said.
A government source told
AFP that Mahdi is being
held under an order from
prosecutors because he has
continued to repeat his al-
legations against the Rapid
Support Forces (RSF).
On Thursday the Umma
leader appeared before pros-
ecutors for questioning over
the allegations he rst made
about the RSF at a press con-
ference earlier this month.
Newspapers reported that
NISS, which has authority
over the RSF, led a complaint
accusing Mahdi of threaten-
ing public peace, and other
crimes.
At a news conference in
Khartoum on Wednesday,
commanders of the RSF de-
nied their force had looted,
raped or committed arson.
All the allegations against
us are lies, an angry Moham-
med Hamdan Dalgo, the units
eld commander, shouted.
Mahdis detention comes
as Umma and some other
opposition parties engage
in a national dialogue with
President Omar al-Bashir.
A senior opposition politi-
cian has told AFP that Umma
is a main focus of the dialogue
process that might lead to a
new, coalition government.
The politician said Bashir
is pushing for a real change
because he realises the country
is collapsing. (AFP)

UN troops in Somali capital to defend sta
MOGADISHU, Sunday
A special UN military
force to protect aid workers
deployed for the rst time in
the war-ravaged Somali capital
today, amid a wave of attacks
blamed on Al-Qaeda-linked
al-Shabaab insurgents.
The 400-strong defensive
guard force of Ugandan troops,
based at the heavily fortied
Mogadishu airport, is man-
dated to protect UN sta and
installations in the capital.
Despite the governments in-
sistence that it has improved
security, the Shebab continue
to carry out bombings in-
cluding targeting aid workers
in their bid to overthrow So-
malias internationally backed
but fragile leadership.
Al-Shabaab suicide com-
mandos last June blasted their
way into a fortied UN base
in central Mogadishu, killing
16 people.
The deployment of the UN
Guard Unit is an important
step as we continue to expand
our operations in support of
the Somali people, UN envoy
to Somalia Nicholas Kay said
at a ceremony Sunday to mark
the start of operations.
Ugandan troops are already
in Somalia as a key part of the
UN-mandated African Union
force AMISOM, which is ght-
ing the Shebab.
The insurgents have been
driven out of xed positions
in Somalias major towns by
22,000- strong force of AMI-
SOM troops, but still regularly
launch guerrilla raids.

CRISIS| Members were evacuated from building
TRIPOLI, Sunday
H
eavy gunfire and
clashes broke out
today in the south of
the Libyan capital, near the
countrys interim parliament,
witnesses said.
They said the clashes erupted
after a convoy of armoured
vehicles entered Tripoli from
the airport road and headed for
the General National Congress
(GNC) building.
GNC members were evacu-
ated from the building after
gunmen in civilian clothes at-
tacked the building, according
to a member of the interim par-
liament, who could not identify
the assailants.
Witnesses said the gunmen
were members of the power-
ful Zintan brigades of former
rebel ghters that control sev-
eral zones in southern Tripoli
around the capitals airport.
The violence came after
deadly ghting in the eastern
city of Benghazi on Friday,
when a rogue general unleashed
his so-called National Army
on Islamist militiamen.
Earlier today, eastern Libya
descended further into anarchy
as a rogue general accused by
Tripoli of staging a coup read-
ied a new offensive against
Islamist groups, vowing to
eradicate terrorism.
Ocials said on Saturday
that erce ghting in the North
African nations second city
Benghazi, a hotbed of Islamist
militancy, had killed at least 79
people and wounded 141.
The ghting erupted on Fri-
day, as retired general Khalifa
Haftar unleashed his so-called
National Army on Islamist mi-
litiamen in the city, backed by
warplanes and helicopters.
Each battle is followed by
a regrouping of units. And we
will return in force, Gen Haftar
said on Saturday after his men
withdrew late Friday.
We will not give up until
we achieve our goals, he said,
claiming to have responded to
the call of the people to eradi-
cate Benghazi of terrorism.
The government accused the
outlaw Gen Haftar of trying
to mount a coup and declared
a Benghazi no-y zone, vowing
to shoot down aircraft that defy
the ban.
Gen Haftar, who led ground
forces in the 2011 uprising that
toppled Muammar Gaddafi
said: Our operation is not a
coup and we do not plan to
seize power.
This operation has a precise
goal which is the eradication
of terrorism in Libya, he told
reporters. Gen Haftar defected
from Gaddas forces in the
late 1980s and spent nearly
20 years in the United States
before joining the uprising.
Detractors accuse him of
being in the pay of the Ameri-
cans. (AFP)

The real
issue is
who is in
charge
of better
tracking
Richard
Aboulaa,
an
aerospace
analyst
L
ethargy in dealing with
global problems seems
endemic in United Na-
tions agencies. This time its
the International Civil Aviation
Organisation, ICAO.
Formed in 1944, the now 191-
member states body should be at
the forefront of developments of
future global civil aviation require-
ments. Instead, it seems to just
react when a disaster strikes.
Early last week the ICAO con-
vened an extra-ordinary meeting
at its headquarters in Montreal,
Canada. On tow was the Interna-
tional Air Transport Association,
IATA, the industrys arm and a
logical partner.
They wasted time noting real
time tracking of passenger airlin-
ers is needed. Thats a hackneyed
phraseology since Malaysia Air
flight MH370 disappeared on
March 8 without trace and with
239 people on board. Moreover,
investigator of Air Frances ight
477s crash over the Atlantic Ocean
nearly ve years ago said so.
By an interesting coincidence,
Inmarsat, a UK-based satellite
operator, came up with a track-
ing quick x. the day the day
the meeting began. Incidentally,
it was Inmarsat data that directed
the search of MH370 in southern
Indian Ocean.
The only concrete outcome of
the Montreal meeting was the
formation of a 20-member IATA
task force. It will meet once
a month, beginning June, and
present a proposal to the ICAO
in September.
If the past is any guide, after
IATAs proposal will go to the
ICAO, meander through a maze
of agencies, organizations, com-
panies, bureaucrats, aeronautic
experts, dubious civil societies,
and myriads of busy bodies and
back to IATA. Presumably a man-
datory and binding tracking global
standard will emerge.
It isnt that straight.
The real issue is who is in
charge of mandating better
tracking, Reuters quoted Richard
Aboulaa, an aerospace analyst,
in Fairfax, Virginia.
Technical change
If it is the industry, they will
have to bear all the uncertainty
about technical change, negotia-
tions with pilots and so on. It is
not just about nickel and diming in
safety, there is real uncertainty.
Multiplicity of players made it
dicult for ICAO to give a timeline
of when, if ever, the standard will
come into being.
It adherence to consensus en-
courages intrigues and confusion.
Hence, A standard takes longer
and it takes time. Reuters, re-
ported Nancy Graham, ICAOs
Air Navigation Bureau director,
saying.
Thats hiding under the cover
of diculties instead of ying
into whats possible. Its so when
Graham pointed that most of glo-
bal wide-bodied eet has tracking
equipment. Its just a matter of
changing hardware and software,
plus working out procedures.
Inmarsat vice president Chris
McLaughlin put it at 90 per cent.
Inmarsat ew into the possible.
It oered the worlds passenger
airliners a basic tracking service,
free.
Using GPS, they will be able to
determine location and transmit
dataheading, speed and alti-
tudeevery 15 minutes, the BBC
reported.
It was brief automatic electronic
pings that led the search for
MH370 wreckage to southern
Indian Ocean.
Its unclear what weight the
ICAO gave to Inmarsats oer.
Anyway, what the ICAO should
be doing is thinking fast and
become the forefront of anticipat-
ing future problems in civil and
develop contingencies instead
of going through motions when
passenger airliners crash and,
sometime, vanish without trace.
Pointing out air travel remains the
safest mode is lethargy.

BUSINESS
MEETING ON INSECURITY
Arusha to host conference on rising
terror incidents and eects on the
regions economies. P.38
BY JOSHUA MASINDE
@masindej

P
ayments within East Africa
can now occur in real time
following the ocial inaugu-
ration of the East African Payments
System (EAPS).
The system has so far enabled trans-
actions valued at Sh3.3 billion ($37.6
million) across borders since last No-
vember 25 when testing began.
The regional payments platform
was launched by Central Bank gov-
ernors and ocials of the regional
trading bloc last Friday to speed up
regional integration and trade.
According to Central Bank gover-
nor Njuguna Ndungu, the platform
allows the communitys public and
business owners to send and re-
ceive cross-border payments in any
of the regions currencies from any
commercial bank in the three East
African countries.
Cross-border payments
Its implementation will address de-
ciencies in the current cross-border
payment methods through enhanced
eciency and risk controls, said Prof
Ndungu, who is also the chairman of
the EAC Monetary Aairs Committee
of Central Bank governors.
The EAPS cross-border payment is
an initiative of regional central banks
and the EAC secretariat in collabo-
ration with commercial banks. The
system integrates all the Real Time
Gross Settlement Systems of Kenya,
Tanzania and Uganda for delivery of
payments.
Central banks will provide the infra-
structure for those without currency
conversion within the system.
Customers and their respective
banks will agree on exchange rates
and the source of required forex out-
side the central banks. The real time
gross settlement system has also been
enhanced to accommodate dierent
currencies of partner states.
The EAC deputy secretary-general
for planning and infrastructure, Mr
Enos Bukuku, said the platform will
transform doing business in the re-
gion by speeding up settlement of
transactions.
This is a departure from the old
fragmented payment that was heavily
reliant on cash and cheques, was slow
and exposed to risks. This made doing
business in the region dicult.
The EAPS will provide a highway
for supporting timely cross border
transactions, which will boost intra-
EAC trade for the benet of citizens,
said Dr Bukuku.
Since going live in November last

The government wants industries to enhance
their production capacities to absorb increased
power supply under the 5,000MW project that
is expected to reduce the cost of electricity by
40 per cent.
Energy and Petroleum Cabinet Secretary
Davis Chirchir last week sought to boost de-
mand among industrialists assuring them that
the proposed power generation roadmap is on
track as it emerged that big investors expected
in the country are still sceptical about Kenyas
ambitious power plans.
Dangote (Aliko) is willing to put up a cap-
tive power plant because he does not believe
that Kenya can oer him reliable power to
the planned cement plant in Kitui. Under the
5,000MW plan, we want to generate demand
and create jobs, the minister said in reference
to plans by Africas richest man to put up a
cement plant in Kitui.
Policymakers are also keen on setting up vari-
ous demand centres across various counties.
We will have high demand drivers from
county governments which will require ad-
ditional capacity,
Lappset has a crude oil pipeline component
that requires heat at various points. The stand-
ard gauge railway and the Konza Technopolis
are others. Our plan is to correct the power
insecurity and improve quality of supply, he
said at the meeting on Wednesday.
Various energy-intensive activities such as
mining, production of iron and steel products
from local iron ore deposits, irrigation of large
tracts of land for food security and agro-based
industry, operation of petroleum pipelines for
both crude and rened fuel oils, petrochemicals
production including urea and steel production
are on course. Other programmes include elec-
trication of designated rail lines, installation
of escalators at shopping malls and airports,
and new economic zones.
Our plans for extra electricity are on course, says Chirchir
Accountants
seek review
of their law
BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Accountants are seeking to
review the law governing them to
ensure that every practitioner is a
member of the group.
A planned amendment to the Ac-
countants Act that was enacted in
2008, will bring all accountants
in the country under the Institute
of Certied Public Accountants
(Icpak).
Further, any person wishing
to provide accountancy services
must also be a member of the
institute, said Icpak chairman
Benson Okundi in a special an-
nouncement last week.
It will also seek reclassication
of institute membership, creating
a new category for students and
technicians to eliminate incidents
of illegal practitioners.
Icpak vice-chairperson Rose-
mary Gituma said the profession
had been ambiguously dened to
include book-keeping, nancial
accounting, auditing, forensic
auditing, taxation and nancial
management.
She said companies and institu-
tions should consider outsourcing
accounting services in major
projects instead of solely relying
on in-house sta.
This will lead to faster imple-
mentation of projects as in-house
accountants are relieved of the re-
sponsibility of managing nancial
aspects of special projects besides
running their normal duties.
She said currently, most compa-
nies outsource project managers,
quantity surveyors, architects and
engineers even when such profes-
sionals are within the organisation,
but overlook the aspect of out-
sourcing nancial expertise.
Any person wishing to
provide accountancy
services must also be a

Twenty companies that oper-
ate in the Lake Victoria basin
will from today be gauged on
how they have reduced waste
emission into the lake.
They are among 50 from
East Africa that will be put
under scrutiny for adopting
new measures to combat pol-
lution and curb wastage.
The campaign aims save up
to Sh9.8 billion annually. This
is the amount of money that is
lost every year due to pollution
and poor use of raw materials
in Kenya alone.
The companies are to be
rated based on their perform-
ance in contributing to a
healthy environment under
a multi-million dollar World
Bank-funded project known
as the resource efficient
and cleaner production cam-
paign.
By adopting cleaner produc-
tion processes, businesses
enjoy a cleaner environment
while realising increased eco-
nomic benets, head of the
programme Jane Nyakango
said.
We are now subjecting these
industries to regional competi-
tion to know those that have
saved the highest resources
through the programme,
she said.
Companies from Kenya,
Uganda and Tanzania have
jointly saved millions of shil-
lings after they embraced the
campaign to cut waste emis-
sion.
Winners of the assessment
will be announced in Entebbe,
Uganda on June 10.

K
enyans could be sitting on a
gold mine worth Sh158 billion
in form of used but saleable
goods in their homes.
According to an inventory survey
released by Nielsen Kenya last month,
Nairobi leads with the value of such
items in households valued at Sh69
billion.
The study was conducted in Nai-
robi, Nyanza, Eastern, Central, Coast
and Rift Valley with Nyanza found to
have the least value of unused goods
at Sh9.7 billion.
The worth of art collections per
person is the highest at Sh144,073
followed by furniture at Sh27,765
and computers and laptops at
Sh25,057.
The value of items was calculated
by taking into consideration all goods
which respondents said they do not
use and which they were willing to
sell.
This was then followed by taking
the number of the particular item and
the cost per item. The total value was
then subjected to all respondents who
were willing to sell the item, which
generated per capita amount by
items. The survey interviewed 855
respondents across the country and
found that furniture accounts for the
largest proportion of unused goods
amounting to 3.7 million items.
Clothing and shoes numbered 3.6
million with books, compact discs and
DVDs coming third at 3.6 million of
goods lying in households.
The sample was subjected to the
urban population by region weight-
ing. The same was then extended to
the regions to get the total value by
region and category.
Second hand market
Advent of the Internet and its faster
penetration because of smartphones
has resulted in emergence and growth
of online second hand market places
from where Kenyans can sell and buy
used goods.
OLX is one such platform that has
become dominant, riding on the coun-
trys status as an Internet hub.
The country is ranked high among
those with the highest Internet and
social media usage in Africa, perhaps
explaining why online trading plat-
forms are growing by the day.
Apart from helping people sell and
buy unused goods, such platforms also
allow users to post for free adverts on
jobs, real estate and other services.
According to the latest statistics
from the Communications Com-
mission of Kenya, the estimated
number of Internet users in the
country stood at 13.53 million by
September 2012.

Revive school milk programme, says processor
BY NATION REPORTER
The Education Ministry
has been asked to speed up
re-introduction of the primary
school milk programme to im-
prove education and earnings
for farmers.
Sameer Agriculture and
Livestock Limited managing
director Anand Gaggar said
most milk processors were
ready to work with the govern-
ment to ensure the success of
the programme.
We are willing to sell our
milk at a lower price to help
the government roll out this
project, he said.
Processors would accept
Sh16 for a 200ml long life milk
packet compared to the market
price of Sh30, he said.
Kenya has a long history with
school milk having started in
1979 targeting 4.3 million chil-
dren, each receiving a 200ml
long life milk packet twice a
week under the programme run
by the Education Ministry and
Kenya Cooperative Creameries.
Poor roads which led to high
transportation costs and lack of
accountability at the ministry
among other reasons saw the
project stopped in 1998.
Since 2012, the government
has been working on ways of
reviving the programme.
Mr Gaggar, whose firms
products are sold under
the Daima brand, said the
programme had numerous
benets.
The rst beneciaries are
the school children. It has
been demonstrated that their
performance improves through
increased school attendance,
he said.

E
ast African legislators
and senior government
ocials will converge
in Arusha this week to delib-
erate on how to contain rising
insecurity that is eroding re-
gional economic gains.
The conference comes in
the wake of increased terror
attacks in Kenya that have
seen the countrys major
tourist source markets issue
travel advisories.
Last week, hundreds of
British tourists were evacu-
ated from Kenya following a
travel warning issued by the
United Kingdom government
of a possible attack.
Increased terrorist activi-
ties have cast a shadow on
the regions tourism sector
which is a key economic pillar
and a top forex earner. The
latest was Friday last week
when two explosions rocked
the busy Gikomba market in
Nairobi killing several Ken-
yans and injuring others.
The conference is expected
to analyse the emerging se-
curity priorities, needs and
challenges in the region and
discuss the feasibility of a
new vision on regional se-
curity and sustainable, and
peaceful co-existence, reads
a statement from EALA.
The two-day conference
scheduled for May 23 and
24 is dubbed the East Afri-
can Societies and Regional
Security, and will be opened
by chairman of the East Af-
rican Legislative Assembly
committee on regional af-
fairs and conict resolution
Abubakar Zein Abubakar
and director of the African
Leadership Centre Fumi
Olonisakin.
EALA members, EAC sec-
retariat ocials, government
officials of partner states,
policy makers and repre-
sentatives of the civil society
organisations are some of the
80 delegates expected to be
at the conference.
The meeting hopes to build
capacities of MPs not only
to legislate better but to also
inuence security and peace
building initiatives in the re-
gion through parliamentary
diplomacy.

S
ome days
back, I was
duly informed
that Ugandas
domestic cricket
league is up and run-
ning, with matches
being played every weekend unless
bad weather leads to games being
abandoned.
That is good for Uganda I should
write, for, having crashed out of
the World Cup qualiers like their
neighbours on this side of the border,
they realised that was not the end
of the world, and cricket still has to
be played.
Kenya too did not slacken, to be fair,
and embarked on youth programmes,
which, in the long run, will bear fruit
as the country works on a strategy
that should help in building of teams
and having proper structures in place.
By all standards, Kenya should be
the big boys of cricket in the region,
considering the international tourna-
ments they have participated in, and
the stages they have reached.
As such, Kenya should have a
vibrant and extremely competitive
domestic league which is the envy of
regional cricketing countries so much
so that their players would be more
than willing to cross the border.
Corporate sponsors
With corporate sponsors few and far
between, this has not been possible
as it were or should be, and it is only
natural for loud silence to be heard in
local cricket grounds, with the most
noises coming from the refreshment
sides of the Sports Clubs.
Of course the voices of the
youngsters being initiated into the
Gentlemans Game through the youth
programmes can also be heard, but
when do they get to watch their local
heroes play, when do they get to sit
in the stands and cheer and learn
by watching and not necessarily by
being guided?
A vibrant league would be an added
advantage to the young ones learning

Oh, the mail about Ugandas

Whether that is a good or a bad
thing as concerns local cricket, or

D
adhley brothers Jaivir and Zorravar
dominated the third round of the
national g0-karting championships,
easily winning their races at the Rift Valley
Motors and Sports Club in Nakuru yester-
day.
Ten-yearold Jaivir timed 10 minutes, 53.8
seconds for victory in the 60cc race of the
third round of the national championships,
while eight-year-old Zorravar won the 50cc
category in 7:46.05.
Jaivir, a Year Five pupil at Premier Acad-
emy in Nairobi, led from start to nish in
the 17-lap race. His fastest lap time was 36.6
seconds in a race that attracted more than
30 participants in the three categories of
50cc, 60cc and junior rotax. I feel happy
to have won today. I dedicate my victory to
the newest member of our family Ranveer
Dadhley, said Jaivir.

He added: This is super Sunday for
me. When I get back home the rst person
to touch the trophy would be my brother
Ranveer who is 14 days old. He said he
found the going easier unlike in the second
leg of the race where he faced sti opposi-
tion. Nzomo siblings Jadini (10:33.10) and
Amani (10:33.15) nished second and third
respectively.
Nigel Muhia of Brookhouse School came
fourth ahead of Kinyanjui Kamau of Kenton
College while Jude Njeru was sixth.
In the 50cc category, Zorravar was followed
by Dennis Yaya (7:27.06) from Moi Educa-
tion Centre. Nellie Kamau nished third in
7:27.29 ahead of Nicole Muhia (Brookhouse,
7:27.74) and Shil Gohil (7:09.83).
Second leg winner Yash Gohil nished
sixth, while Myles Imbayi came seventh after
his kart developed problems.
Philip Ndegwa won the junior rotax race
after amassing 100 points ahead of Jeremey
Wahome (89 points). Ryan Bailey (80), Jason
Oosterik (72) and Javin Gohil (65) followed

Kenya runners yesterday continued
to arm their dominance in long dis-
tances races, winning road races in
Japan and India respectively.
In Japan, Bedan Karoki upset
favourite and defending champion
Zersenay Tadese from Eritrea in
the fourth annual Gifu Seiryu Half

Road Race, to win in a new course
record of 1hr,00.02min.
The womens race produced an even
bigger surprise as this years Milano
Marathon champion Visiline Jepkesho
upset her compatriot and two-time
IAAF World Championships marathon
winner Edna Kiplagat.
In India, World Half Marathon
champion Georey Kipsang and Lucy

Marathon record holder Wilson Kip-
sang of Kenya as World and Olympic
10,000m champion Tirunesh Dibaba
eased to victory in the womens race
over the same distance to defend
her title, nishing in 31:09 ahead of
Britains Gemma Steel.
Karoki, fth in the London 2012
Olympic Games 10,000m, eclipsed
the previous course record of 1:00:
31 set by Tadese last year but was a
frustrating four seconds short of his
own personal best of 59:58 from Lis-
bon Half Marathon in March, where he
made his debut over the distance.
During the next 5km, three run-
ners the Kenyan trio of Patrick
Mwaka, Edward Waweru and Cyrus

leaving Karoki, Tadese and Ethio-
pias Abayneh Ayele together at the

42 Stableford points.
I think it is the practice I have
been doing here that helped me
win the event, said Maina after
receiving his prize from Muranga

Maina posted 21 points in the

Kithae. Rutto who had a strong
back nine score of 23 points after
picking up 17 in the opening
nine, edged out Kithae (19, 21)

When Tunisia claimed continents rst win
AFRICAS WORLD CUP ADVENTURES | The luckless Mexicans returned home in an unannounced ight
I
n the annals of the riskiest
voluntary public promises
ever made by a football
coach, the one announced by
Abdelmajid Chetali obviously
takes the cake.
Who was Abdelmajid Chetali?
He was coach of the Tunisian
team to the 1978 World Cup -
nals in Argentina. He had been
a highly successful player in his
younger days, too, having repre-
sented his country in the 1960
Rome Olympics. He had clocked
a goodly 70 matches in his in-
ternational career. He topped all
this by leading his country to their
rst ever World Cup appearance
Argentina 78.
Tunisia were grouped with Po-
land, Mexico and West Germany,
then the reigning champions.
Before their rst game against
Mexico, Chetali told the whole
world that he would shave his
beard only after Tunisia had
won a match at the World Cup.
He caught everybodys attention
at once. Africa had participated in
the World Cup since 1970 and
none of its teams had won a single
match there.
Fifa guaranteed Africa one
place in the World Cup after the
continent staged a mass boycott
of the qualifying process of the
1966 tournament. At that time,
the Confederations of Africa, Asia
and Oceania had been lumped to
contest a single slot in the com-
petition while Europe had eight
and South America three. It was
the rst major ght that Africa
had with Fifa and it won; the next
would come 40 years later when it
demanded to host the tournament
and won the right to do so with
South Africa doing the honours.
Fighting for ones rights clearly
works.
After the boycott, Morocco
were the continents first rep-
resentatives in 1970 in Mexico.
They performed honourably
leading West Germany 1-0 for
a while before just losing 1-2. They
then went down 0-3 to Peru and
drew 1-1 with Bulgaria in their
final match. In 1974 in West
Germany, Africas third and rst
sub-Saharan team at the big stage,
Zaire, didnt score a single goal;
they lost 0-2 to Scotland, 0-9 to
Yugoslavia and 0-3 to Brazil.
Longest beard
Now Chetali said all this would
be history before the rst ball
was kicked. Many people at the
time said he was an incredible
romantic. Others predicted a
new entry into the Guinness
Book of World Records for the
longest beard on earth. And they
wondered how it would all end
given that Chetali was a man of
his word. Few thought he knew
something they didnt.
Come Tunisias first game
against Mexico and the Carthage
Eagles thumped them 3-1. Experts
ate humble pie for their next meal.
Africas rst victory at the Fifa
World Cup had come in an ex-
traordinarily emphatic fashion.
But Chetali was not done yet.
Poland, the eventual group win-
ners, just managed to squeeze a
1-0 win against his high ying
Eagles.
Then Tunisia locked West
Germany 0-0. The shaky world
champions just managed to limp
into the next round at Tunisias
expense because of what one jour-
nalist described as a 6-0 day of
shooting practice against Mexico.
The luckless Mexicans returned
home in an unannounced ight
timed for 3 am to evade enraged
fans who were waiting at the
airport with stones.
Argentina 78 is one of my
most memorable World Cups. I
remember it for so many things.
There was the worlds best striker
of the day, Mario Kempes of the
host nation after whom one of
my schoolmates and best friend,
Gor Mahia and Harambee Stars
midelder Sammy Owino was
named. Hugh McIllvaney, the
venerable master of sports jour-
nalism, described him as at least
50 per cent of his team.
Then there was his captain, cen-
tral defender Daniel Passarella, a
gritty workaholic, a commanding
leader with highly pronounced
rough edges; forwards were
always advised to watch his
elbow. To this day, Passarella is
recognised as one of the greatest
defenders of all time; he was also
at one time the leading scoring
defender in the world with 134
goals in 451 matches. In 2004,
Fifa named him among the 125
Greatest Living Footballers.
Banning orders
Passarella later became Argen-
tinas coach. A puritanical man,
he issued banning orders for long
hair, earrings and homosexuals
from his squad. This proved quite
divisive and great players like
Fernando Redondo and Claudio
Caniggia refused to play for him.
He just told them to get lost.
Though suspected of unsavoury
conduct in the match that got
them into the nal, I still think
Argentinas 1978 squad was sim-
ply brilliant, one of the best ever
World Cup squads. When years
later I learnt that their elegant
midelder, Osvaldo Ardiles had
starred in the film Victory
alongside Pele and Englands
Bobby Moore, I bought the DvD
which I still retain.
The literal meaning of todays
clich, you dont change a
winning team or its colourful
American variant dont x it if
it aint broke was also famously
proved practically true in the 1978
World Cup. At that time, a pre-
cocious 17-year-old,
a genius by universal
acclamation, burst into the Argen-
tine football scene.
His name was Diego Mara-
dona. There was a huge clamour
for his inclusion in the national
squad. But Cesar Luis Menotti,
the chain smoking left wing intel-
lectual who coached Argentina,
would have none of it. He even
told his countrys ruling military
junta to get o his back on that
matter, something akin to a death
wish then.
It was Argentina versus
Menotti. Menotti won, and Ar-
gentina proceeded to win the Cup.
Now everybody wanted a piece of
Menotti and his wisdom. They got
it. He said simply that his winning
squad had played together for a
long time and each player knew
the other well.
They were finishing each
others moves, if not sentences,
flawlessly. A late introduction
of the genius Maradona would
have upset that balance with un-
predictable consequences. Yes, of
course, the country agreed with
him. But he earned Maradonas
eternal wrath.
Kenyans who have no recollec-
tion of these events will be deeply
interested in the fateful connec-
tion between Argentina 78 and
Kenya 2008 to the present. It so
happened that in 1976 two years
before the World Cup there was
a military coup in Argentina. The
new junta was as right wing as
they come.
Its chief was an army general
named Jorge Videla. His junta
immediately launched a hunt
for suspected leftists and thou-
sands of people were murdered or
simply disappeared. It was called
the Dirty War. Security forces con-
ducted a bloody campaign against
anybody suspected of association
with socialism. These included
journalists, trade unionists, stu-
dents and just about anybody the
security forces didnt like. Up to
30,000 people are believed to
have disappeared.
Some European teams to the
World Cup made it known that
they were not willing to shake
Videlas hand, which they said
was dripping with the blood of
the innocent. Johan Cruy, the
Dutch superstar, stayed away
from Argentina and it was widely
believed he did so for political
reasons. Years later, he said this
was not the case. There were
even feeble suggestions to move
the Cup from that badly scarred
land. In the end, everything went
according to plan, but Videla took
the precaution of oering no hand
to shake.
A group of women, all whose
children had disappeared, or-
ganised themselves into a group
known as the Mothers of the Plaza
de Mayo. They held demonstra-
tions outside the presidential
palace in defiance of the gov-
ernments anti-terrorism laws.
The Dirty War lasted between
1976 and 1983 when democracy
returned to Argentina.
When it ended, trials of the
generals who had prosecuted it
started. It was internationally
known as the Trial of the Juntas.
Among the people in the dock
was Videla who eventually got
a sentence of life in prison. The
trials captured world attention,
being the rst since the Nurem-
burg Trials that followed World
War II.
Moreno Ocampo
The Chief Prosecutor was a man
known as Julio Cesar Strassera.
And his deputy, who gained such
star status that he later became
the rst prosecutor of the Inter-
national Criminal Court, was
one Louis Moreno Ocampo. His
handiwork is very much with us
today. I will say no more on this
issue because, just as our unwrit-
ten laws require every Kenyan
to describe land matters in this
country as emotive, Ocampos
name is emotive, too.
I have said that Argentinas
victorious team in 1978 was one
of the best that I have ever seen.
I can repeat that statement any
time. However, it is imperative to
write about the suspected scan-
dalous way in which they reached
the nal and how it led to a change
in a key Fifa rule.
It was clear from day one that
Jorge Videlas reviled military
dictatorship was going to stop
at nothing to win the World Cup
in an eort to rally patriotic fer-
vour in the populace. Some people
equated it with Adolf Hitlers dark
efforts to show Aryan racial
supremacy during the 1936 Olym-
pics. They are ones who said that
the junta had opened the vaults
of the Central Bank of Argentina
and let Peruvian players laugh all
the way into them. Since 1978,

Our game is all
about risking
life and limb
O
ne of the biggest mis-
conceptions in Kenyan
football is that the late Re-
inhardt Fabisch masterminded a
once-in-a-lifetime victory over the
great Super Eagles side in 1997.
The narrative has always been
that the late Ken Simiyu scored
the only goal during that epic duel
at Kasarani. Very few remember that
the match actually ended in a one-
all draw after Jonathan Akpoborie
struck a second half equaliser.
But one of the enduring memo-
ries of that match is the solid
defensive display of Kenyas back
three of team captain Musa Otieno,
Josiah Ougo and John Luchuku. As
I write, Luchuku is long deceased,
having met his death in the most
cruel manner.
Luchuku had ditched Ingwe for
the better paying Oserian Fastac
alongside his bosom friend Fred
Ambani. He was involved in grisly
road accident when the vehicle
he was driving rammed a truck
transporting timber on the Nakuru-
Nairobi highway. Fred miraculously
escaped unhurt but Luchuku suf-
fered horric injuries after one of
the logs pierced through his ribs,
missing his heart by inches.
If miracles do happen, then Lu-
chukus amazing recovery must be
one such miracle. The guy under-
went a successful surgery and even
travelled abroad to pursue greener
pastures before dying years later,
obviously due to complications re-
sulting from the accident. Luchukus
tragic story should oer valuable
lessons to our football clubs on the
importance of investing in medical
insurance for their players.
As we speak, there is a fundraising
going on to raise money to enable
one of KOgalos most loyal players,
Solomon Nasio undergo a surgery.
The boy suered a nasty nose injury
during a league match last season
and has since been sidelined due to
inrmity. Sadly, the club manage-
ment has failed to come to his aid,
forcing fans to dig into their pockets
to raise the required funds.
Nasio is not alone; two weeks
ago, my good friend Peter Lichungu
brought to my attention the plight of
former KCB player Joseph Apindi.
Like Nasio, Apindi suered a serious
injury while playing for his club. He
was promptly declared redundant.
Today, he is unable to get treat-
ment and resume his career. The
same goes for goalkeeper Boniface
Oluoch who thought he had landed
a contract with Sofapaka only to be
sacked days later because he was
nursing an injury.

OFF THE PITCH | Moses Ojuang
M
any enthusiasts of
Kenyan football
always cherish the
memory of seeing Davies
Oyiela running rings in the
mideld. He was a joy to
watch, fast, brilliant, with su-
perb control of the ball.
He broke his knee while
playing and after three
months out of the eld
had his contract was de-
termined. In this lingua,
determined also means can-
celled or rendered null and
void. He subsequently faded
o to places which I wish
not to talk about.
The game he loved had
just betrayed him; his tool
of trade in this case his
legs- could not support his
trade anymore and he could
not make ends meet. It was
a sudden and sad end to an
illustrious career and there
was no shoulder to lean on
when all seemed lost. It is a
depressing tale that has been
repeated on many souls in
Kenyan football such that it
is commonplace; talent eas-
ily turns into curse in these
region but we can do better.
For the past one year, the
hard working and talented
Gor Mahia defender Solo-
mon Nasio has suered an
ailment that required some
surgery. It came to pass
that the lad has endured it
and the team management
treated the matter as if it did
not bother them a whit.
Team mates all resorted
to saving the situation them-
selves and thus they agreed
to raise ve thousand shil-
lings each to carter for the
cost of the operation. Things
got awry sometime last week
and the ping pong game of
blame shifting began. New
ocials accused the former
ones for having known this
problem and having given it
Players need to form trade union

the benevolence
of the fans to
survive. They
need to organise
themselves into
a union like a
professional
players
association.
This union can
also double up

a cold shoulder.
The former people in of-
ce also stammered their
defence and accused the
current people of living in
the past and pointing n-
gers when they should be
doing something to help
the boy.
Meanwhile, with a lot
of fanfare, KOgalo was
unveiling a group medical
insurance for their players.
What we do not know as
yet is if the insurance cover
deals with only sports inju-
ries or if it covers any other
ailments not necessarily
occurring from the eld of
play.
We also are in the dark
on the amount it covers
per player but we will as-
sume that it is requisite and
not just a public relations
exercise. The Gor fans in
a frenzy of distress and
shock raised funds for the
sick player and he will soon
undergo the required sur-
gery to save his health and
career. The fans acted more
humanely and with speed
compared to the lethargic
management.
Things need not always
be like this. We have lost too
many players to depression
and drunkenness due to
the way we have mistreated
them and it is time to make
radical changes to our man-
agement styles.
The players need not
depend on the benevolence
of the fans to survive. They
need to organise themselves
into a union like a profes-
sional players association.
This union can also dou-
ble up as their Sacco and
welfare which enables them
to save for the future and
also be able to get loans
and other nancial benets.
The union can negotiate
contracts on their behalf
and also bring in lawyers in
case of contractual disputes.
Cases of Nasio and Oyiela
should never happen. They
are embarrassing as well
as tasteless; they show just
how eclectically our club af-
fairs are run; it conrms the
fact that many club ocials
are just pests who use the
clubs as ladders to some-
where else and not to make
them better; it depicts the
club ocials as cruel.
Nasio will soon be back
and we wish him all the
best but we must bear in
mind that he is from a club
that boasts of the largest
number of active fans.
What if it was a player
from those fan-less clubs?
What of the Vimbwanga FC
players? Who would have
come to their aid?
A footballer retires in his
30s. He should be managed
by people who are con-
stantly aware of this fact.

For Gor to move forward, club must learn to embrace change
O
ne of the most exciting piece
of news coming from Gor
Mahia was the launch of
membership drive last week.
Although some have expressed mis-
givings about this exercise, if you can
recall, I have previously mentioned
this option as one of the main planks
of the bridge to take us across River
Jordan to the Promised Land.
While I still maintain that the club
needs an experienced marketer, I am
hugely impressed by the Mpesa pay-
bill number 350100 which the club,
more so the deputy secretary General
Naima Okech, has been popularizing.
However, I believe were it done with a
bit of incentive to those contributing
the returns would have been higher.
If for example the club invested in a
fairly priced car to be won in a rae
by those contributing to the paybill
number, Im sure the collections would
have been higher.
Another urgent recruitment for the
club would be of a new CEO with more
powers. With most of the club ocials
serve on voluntary basis, it would be
foolhardy to expect the chairman Am-
brose Rachier to leave his law practice
and dedicate all his time fully to the
club. This is why we need a CEO who
would be competently hired. One of
the holders key competencies would
be fundraising because we need all the
money we can lay our hands on.
Still on recruitment, I believe we
need a director of communications like
yesterday. This way all communica-
tion from the club will be channelled
through one oce. If the coach or any
player wants to address the media they
must do so through this ocial. This
will put to an end situations where al-
most anybody speaks their mind while
purporting to convey the clubs ocial
position even when the messages are
contradictory.
While at it, I believe the recent order
am not clear from who requiring
all press people to pay gate charges is
totally uncalled for. As someone who
once held the position of News Editor
of a national newspaper, let me lecture
the club for free. On any given day
there are a thousand and one stories all
vying for limited space in the newspa-
pers, TV and radio. Oering coverage
to the club is therefore not mandatory,
hence opening a new war front with
the media is a sure failure.
While I agree that there are a
number of quacks who have never
written a single story yet proudly
carry around a press card, an ocial
communications officer would be
able to liaise with the media houses
to establish bona de journalists sent
to cover a particular match.
In conclusion, I dedicate todays
column to the players who despite
the head winds the club is running
into have given their all and are giving
the opposition one thorough beating
after another. In the same vein, bring
on the losers called Ingwe next Sun-
day so that we can teach them a few
football lessons.

tens of accounts have been writ-
ten about the highly suspicious
match between Argentina and
Peru that sent the hosts to nal
meeting with the Netherlands. I
like the lucidity of the on-line en-
cyclopedia, Wikipedia quite.
It said: Group B was essentially
a battle between Argentina and
Brazil, and it was resolved in con-
troversial circumstances. In the
rst round of group games, Bra-
zil beat Peru 30 while Argentina
saw Poland o by a score of 20.
Brazil and Argentina then played
out a tense and violent goalless
draw, so both teams went into
the last round of matches with
three points.
Argentina delayed the kick-o
of its last match to await the result
of the Brazil-Poland encounter.
Brazil won by a 3-1 score, meaning
Argentina had to beat Peru by four
clear goals to reach the nal. They
managed to do it. Trailing 20 at
half-time, Peru simply collapsed
in the second half, and Argentina
eventually won 60.
Conspiracy theorists claim the
Argentine military dictatorship
interfered to ensure Argentina
would defeat Peru. However,
these claims were refuted by the
Peruvian captain and several Pe-
ruvian players.
The story varies wildly
depending on the accuser and
no proof has ever been shown.
There is no agreement on whether
they were threatened or bribed,
whether it was the trainer, all
the players or some players, or
whether it happened before the
game or during half time. Initially,
the rumours stemmed from the
Brazilian media due to the fact that
the Peruvian goalkeeper had been
born in Argentina.
No evidence
Theres no agreement on what
encompassed the deal either. An
alleged deal, reported by the
British media as an anonymous
rumour and only decades later, in-
volved the delivery of a large grain
shipment to Peru by Argentina and
the unfreezing of a Peruvian bank
account that was held by the Ar-
gentine Central Bank.
Another deal, published by a
Colombian drug lord in a con-
troversial book, simply involved
the Peruvian team being bribed
without any political implications.
A third deal, claimed by a Peruvian
leftist politician, encompassed
sending 13 Peruvian dissidents
exiled in Argentina back to Peru.
On top of the contradictions
between stories, no evidence is
shown in any case.
Fifa is slow to change its rules.
It is not until the following World
Cup in Spain that it decided that
the nal two group ties in any
World Cup would be played
simultaneously. This rule has
since cascaded into all competitive
league and Cup matches where ad-
vance knowledge of the outcome
of one contest can tempt the other
contenders to do deals.
Back to the beginning: Adel
Amrouche, what do you think
of your neighbour, Abdelmajid
Chetali? I am restricted in what
I can say but surely, Gillette is not
the best thing a man can get, is it?
Its a World Cup win, no?

L
ike mother, like son. Mrs Haz-
ard used to play as a striker, in
Belgiums womens rst divi-
sion. Now Eden is making a pretty
decent stab of maintaining that
maternal tradition at rst Lille and
now Chelsea.
The Belgian international, whose
younger brother Thorgen is also on
Chelseas books, heads off to the
World Cup with a giant spring in his
step, or entangled in controversy,
depending on your point of view.
The 23-year-olds attacking perform-
ances have helped inspire Chelsea in
the Premier League this season and
earned him the PFA Young Player of
the Year award.
Jose Mourinho, not a man prone
to showering his players with idle
platitudes, has suggested Hazards
probably the best young player in the
world - with potential to rival Cris-
tiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Mourinho made that comment
in February, after the gifted winger
had helped Chelsea beat Manchester
City. The month before, thered been
further praise. The kid is in a very
good moment of his career. Three
consecutive times he is man of
the match, purred the Portu-
guese. Fast forward to the
beginning of May, and
the Chelsea boss was
taking an altogether
dierent tack. Stung
by Hazards appar-
ent criticism of
Chelseas coun-
t e r- a t t a c k
approach in
the wake
of their
Champions League semi-final
loss to Atletico Madrid Mourinho
accused the Belgian of failing to
be a team player.
When the comments come
from a player like Eden, its nor-
mal. Hes not the kind of player
ready to sacrice himself 100
percent for the team and his
mates. Ouch. Hazard moved to
north London in a mega $52.7
million deal in 2012 after helping
Lille win the French league and
Cup double.
The story goes that the rst he
learnt about Chelseas interest was
when Cote dIvoire international
Gervinho passed him his mobile
during training one day with Lille.
According to Hazards then boss,
Rudi Garcia, Didier Drogba had called
Gervinho, and asked if Hazard
was with him. Yes, he is
here, Gervinho said.
Taking the phone,
Hazard heard Chel-
sea owner Roman
Abramovich tell him:
I dont know how
much you earn at
Lille, but I will triple
your salary. (AFP)

NO NONSENSE COACH
Wilmots is the magician
Marc Wilmots hiring as coach of a
then misring Belgium team back in
May 2012 can safely be classied as
one of the Belgium football federa-
tions better decisions.
Under 45-year-old Wilmots steward-
ship the Red Devils have returned to
the World Cup fray after a 12-year
absence. As a combative midelder
aectionately known as Kampf-
schwein (War Pig) by Schalke fans
Wilmots took over a Belgian side
that had failed to reach the 2006
and 2010 World Cups.
Now, with a glittering array of tal-
ent rmly embedded at some of
Europes top clubs Wilmots men
galloped through qualifying to Brazil
with a swagger in their step.
Algiers
It took the persuasive skills of three
leading Algerian football gures to
convince Soane Feghouli that his in-
ternational career lay with the Desert
Foxes rather than France.
The 24-year-old right-side attack-
ing midfielder, born in France to
Algerian parents, had represented
his country of birth at under-18 and
under-21 levels.
And then senior national coach
Raymond Domenech short-listed
Feghouli for a 2008 friendly against
Uruguay, but did not include him in
the nal squad.
The footballer, who made his
senior debut at 17 for Grenoble, was
also on the radar of Algerian ocials
seeking France-born footballers with
ties to the north African state. Then
national team captain Yazid Mansouri
and coach Rabah Saadane contacted
Feghouli by telephone, and the task of
selling Algeria to him began.
Fortunately, the campaign to woo
the now Valencia footballer coincided
with a resurgence of the Foxes after
decades spent largely in the dol-
drums.
Narrow losses
They qualied for the World Cup in
2010 after a 24-year absence from the
global showpiece and held England
between narrow losses to Slovenia
and the United States.
But Algeria exited the tournament in
South Africa without scoring, and the
need for more creative footballers had
assumed an air of desperation.
Enter Mohamed Raouraoua, the Al-
gerian Football Federation president
who also serves on African body CAF
and world body Fifa.
He met Feghouli and a deal was
done Feghouli would play for the
Desert Foxes at senior level rather
than compete for a place in the Les
Bleus line-up.
My life-long dream was to play for
Algeria it is the country I consider
home as my family comes from there,
he told Algerian reporters.
I am proud to defend the Alge-
rian colours and everyone going to
the World Cup feels the same. We are
looking forward to the challenges.
Algeria are considered outsiders in
Group H with Belgium, Russia and
South Korea expected to slug it out for
two second-round places. (AFP)

arambee Stars began their 2015
Africa Cup of Nations qualication
campaign with a narrow 1-0 win
over minnows Comoros Islands in their
rst leg preliminary match at the Nyayo
National Stadium yesterday.
In an edgy battle that Stars could have
won by a wider margin, Belgium-based
midfielder Johanna Omollo made all
the dierence in the 35th minute with a
sumptuous 30-metre screamer that ew
to the top left corner of the net.
The second leg will be played in Comoros
in a fortnight. The visitors, keen to pick a
point in Nairobi, were technical and opted
to sit back and absorb the pressure from
the Stars.
With towering Sanlam Santos defender
Brain Mandela out of Stars team owing
to an injury, head coach Adel Amrouche
handed US-based centre half Lawrence
Olum his rst international cap and the
soft-spoken defender did not disappoint
forming a strong shield with David
Cheche Ochieng in a four-man back-
line that also included David Calabar
Owino and Tuskers roving leftback
Aboud Omar.
Kenya started strongly and had the rst
chance in the 10th minute when Denis
Oliech directed his header from an Ayub
Timbe corner o the mark.
Fifteen minutes later skipper Victor
Wanyama delivered a rasping shot after
being put through by Timbe but he too
could not nd the target. Timbe, operat-
ing on the anks, was the orchestrator of
Kenyas attacks in his man-of-the-match
performance.
Stars were, however, forced on the back
foot in the 29th minute when an error by
Jamal Mohammed nearly proved costly.
He gave away possession to Comoros
midelder Mohamed Soule, who had a
chance of putting his side ahead but he

Kenyans from all walks of life
yesterday thronged the Nyayo
National Stadium to cheer Haram-
bee Stars in their rst competitive
match since they won the Cecafa
Senior Challenge Cup last De-
cember.
Mostly draped in the national
colours, the fans - including Cabi-
net Secretary for Sports Hassan
Wario and his Principal Secretary
Patrick Omutia - arrived in their
thousands to witness the team
commence its 2015 Africa Cup of
Nations qualication campaign.
Excitement gripped the match
venue when the Harambee Stars -
donning the new Joma kit, stepped
into the eld at 3:21pm for a warm-
up session.
On the sidelines, Isukuti danc-
ers, and scantily dressed ladies
provided apt entertainment
throughout the match at the half-
lled 30,000-seater facility.
Expectation was understandably
high on the terraces, save for a
handful of travelling fans of the
visiting team.
Outside the stadium, hawkers
were having a eld day selling
snacks to the estimated 10,000
plus fans.
I have made about Sh3,500
which is three times my daily
earnings in just two hours. I wish
such matches would be played
more frequently, Charles Wanjala,
a beverage hawker said.
The venue also provided a
platform for youthful beauties
to showcase their latest fashion
trends.
Satised with result
While on the field of play the
team only managed a slim 1-0
win over the Comoros, a number
of fans expressed satisfaction in
the teams performance and its
chances of qualifying to the con-
tinental football showpiece next
year in Morocco.
Individually the players have
got what it takes to go all the way.
I am also condent that the coach
can harmonize this team, Robert
Okello, a student at the University
of Nairobi, said after the match.
The result means Stars can
secure passage to the next phase
of the competition if they avoid
defeat in the second leg that will
be contested in Moroni in a fort-
nights time.
We knew they are a tough team
and it is to our advantage that we
did not concede. We will ght to
qualify for the next phase and
ultimately, to the Africa Cup of
Nations, Saudi Arabia-based de-
fender David Cheche Ochieng
said.

T
he police will today begin
exhuming bodies from secret
graves in an abandoned quarry
in Machakos County.
Chief Government Pathologist
Johansen Oduor visited the site yes-
terday and inspected it. He concluded
that there could be more graves be-
sides the one identied by the police
on Saturday.
After walking around the quarry, I
found patches of loose soil. It is pos-
sible that there is more than one grave
here, he said.
The level of decomposition of the
body parts recovered shows that the
victims died within the past three
months, Dr Oduor added.
On Friday evening, Mr Samwel
Sayiore, 62, was looking after his
goats on the border of Kajiado and
Machakos counties when a foul smell
hit him.
At rst the village elder thought a
sheep or a goat had drowned in one
of the abandoned quarries in the
area. The quarries frequently become
ooded when it rains.
I was walking towards a quarry
when I saw something that looked like
a human leg. It was half-eaten, pre-
sumably by hyenas that frequent this
area at night. I was not sure whether
it was a human leg, Mr Sayiore told
the Nation.
I entered the quarry and saw sev-
eral spherical objects that looked like
human heads. I looked around and
found part of an arm. That is when I
conrmed that these were parts of a
human being, he added.
Mr Sayiore immediately called the
area chief and the police and told them
about his discovery.
The police arrived a few hours later
and collected the limbs scattered
around the quarry.
This is not the rst time some-
thing like this has happened here, Mr
Sayiore revealed. A mans body was
found a few metres from the quarry.
Then two weeks ago, the body of a
baby was found in a carton near Em-
bakasi Primary School, which is only a
few kilometres from the quarry.
Kajiado County Commissioner
Kobia wa Kamau said several villagers
had reported their relatives missing.
He said the pathologists investiga-
tions after the exhumation will help
in establishing whether the missing
people had been killed.
Villagers milled around the quarry. A
woman who claimed that her husband
had gone missing a week before the
site was discovered told the Nation
that she had come to see if one of the
bodies was that of her loved one.
The womans sister-in-law said
her brother had been seen quarrel-
ling with some men at Millennium
in Kitengela before he was bundled
into an unmarked car and has not
been seen since then.
Attempts to get details of the
missing man and names of the two
women were unsuccessful as some
young men who had accompanied
them told them not to reveal their
identities to the press.
The two women said they had not
made a report to the police about the
missing man. This was despite pleas
by the county commissioner and the
chief to the public on Saturday to make
reports about missing people.
Mr Kamau said the deaths could
be linked to land disputes in Athi
River and Kitengela. He added that
the government had not ruled out
Mungiki links.
After survey of area,
pathologist concludes
there could be more
burial sites besides one

Two people were yester-

County while pursuing raiders
who had attacked a Turkana
manyatta.
Two others were injured
during the attack in Baragoi.
They were taken to Maralal
County Hospital.
The villagers were assisting
police in pursuing the raiders
who had attacked a Turkana
herdsman at Nachola Village on
Saturday before driving away
hundreds of animals.
The scene of the attack is
about eight kilometres from
Baragoi Town.
County Commissioner Wil-
son Nyakwanga said that the
raiders are believed to be from
Baringo County.
They crossed Suguta Valley
and found their way to Nachola,
he added.
We have recovered some of
the stolen livestock. We are now
liaising with our counterparts
in Baringo County so that they
can help in the recovery of the
rest of the animals and arrest
of the rustlers, Mr Nyakwanga
told the Nation.
The residents of Baragoi
are puzzled why the attack
occurred, yet there is a strong
presence of security forces.
They include the Kenya
Defence Forces, the General
Service Unit, Anti-Stock Theft
Unit as well as the regular unit
and Administration Police.
Illegal rearms
The ocers were dent to the
area to seize illegal rearms
in the hands of bandits after
ghting between the Turkana
and the Samburu escalated.
More than 40 security
forces were killed and their
guns stolen.
More security forces had to
be sent to Nachola after the
herdsman was attacked.
Tension has remained high
in Baragoi but Mr Nyakwanga
downplayed the incident, say-
ing, the situation was under
control.

ear passengers, Flight FL450
to Zurich will be delayed for 15
minutes, the woman at Gate
Five, Terminal Two of Paris
Charles de Gaulle airport announces.
That is normal, I tell myself, and go
back to my laptop.
Attention, dear passengers,
Flight FL450 will be late by a further
10 minutes, the woman announces
again after a few minutes. This time,
there is a collective naaah! from the
crowd of passengers waiting to board.
I, too, am worried that I may miss the
connecting ight to Nairobi in Zurich,
Switzerland.
After waiting for what seems like an
eternity, we are cleared for boarding.
I rush to the front of the line, Kenyan
style. You see, the matatu culture for
which Nairobi is famous follows us
everywhere.
I enter the plane rst, only to be
welcomed by yelling that was coming
from the back of the cabin. My seat
is in the rear, towards the
source of the din. There is
obviously something going
on. I walk down the aisle
and nd my seat.
Opposite me, three people
are engaged in a struggle
between the seats. A young
black fellow is sandwiched
between two white men. The black
guy is handcued and chained at the
ankles. He is in dirty jeans and a grey
shirt with several missing buttons, so
that his lean chest is showing.
The mean-looking white men are
having a hard time trying to force him
to sit down. He is yelling at the top of
his voice, the insults fast and furious,
French and English.
None of the three is
uent in the latter, so
French dominates.
You are idiots! the young man
shouts at his tormentors, who are
obviously policemen.
You too, but sit down! one of the
Frenchmen shouts back.
I want to see the captain! I have the
right to see the captain! Wooooi! You
are hurting me! Espce de canard! the
black fellow shouts, telling his captors
what he thinks of their brains before
following that up with another volley
of unprintable expletives.
The trio is creating quite a scene for
the rest of us who had been cursing the
delay. If this was what caused us those
precious minutes, it was well worth it.
I stop a hostess and ask her what the
kerfue is all about.
He is being deported.
Ahaaaa! I exclaim. Is that so?
And he is resisting. Thats why the
ight was delayed.
What nationality?
I think Kenyan....
Kenyan? I shoot up as if on a recoil
spring and head for the scuffling
trio. I do not know about you, but
for me, whenever I am out there my
patriotisometer tends to work a little
overzealously. I reach the scene in I
think, but I might be exaggerating
these things one step.
Where is he from? I ask the
harassed policemen.
Kenya! one of them responds,
his answer triggering yet another
bout of high-pitched yelling from the
young man.
Je ne suis pas Kenyan! Je suis
Soudanais! (French for: I am not
Kenyan! I am Sudanese!
You are Kenyan! the policemen
shout back in unison, but this just
elicits more yelling.
Almost instinctively, I sh out my
passport and ash it in the face of the
black man.
Mimi natoka Kenya, I tell him.
And who says there are no miracles?
The young man loosens up, lowering
his eyes and slumping into his seat,
much to the amazement of the
policemen and staring passengers.
His energy is spent. No need to ght.
No need to yell. It is all over for the
young tiger who has just
been shouting, Je ne suis
pas Kenyan!
Sasa bwana, twende
nyumbani! I tell him, the
words seasoned with that
patriotism I just told you
about.
Then the Soudanais
switches into a torrent of Kiswahili.
No, not Kiswahili, but Sheng as pure
as it gets in the backstreets of Nairobi.
This is funny and, unable to hold
back, I let out a chortle so loud that
the policemen and the mostly white
passengers are taken aback, seeming
to wonder at the turn of events. This
helps, nonetheless, to relax the mood
in the cabin as the aircraft taxis to the
runway out of Charles de Gaulle.
Sasa hawa makarao wa France
walinishika kwa barabara. Bwana
nimeacha thau mia tatu kwa nyumba.
Na vitu vyangu vyote. Nitasema vipi
nyumbani? (These French policemen
arrested me as I was walking in the
street. I had left the equivalent of
Sh300,000 in my house. I dont have
anything. What will I tell my people
back home?)
Twende nyumbani, I tell him and
give him the thumbs up. Let us go
home.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
He is alright. Remove the handcus
please. He is ready to go home, I tell
the policemen once we are airborne.
They oblige.
Now, young man, where do you
come from in Kenya? I ask my friend
as the plane hurtles towards Zurich.

hesitation, the embarrassing situation
aording him nothing but the three
syllables: Ki-a-mbu.

You will no longer be Kenyan. You will say you are
from Sudan. You will invent a name, like John
Gok, and stick to your story. You will, from then
on, be called John Gok from Sudan by all your
friends and contacts. Even if you call home, you
must be John Gok. Only you will know where you
came from. And use only public telephones.
Kikuyu, and so, to ease the tension
and probably make him feel more
at home with me, I switch the
dialogue to Kikuyu, and then ask
him his name.
John John Mwangi, he answers,
again hesitantly and shamefacedly. I
can see that, although he is obviously
Kenyan, he is lying about his name,
which he would later admit aboard the
long ight from Zurich to Nairobi.
I try to dig up some information from
the policemen, who have to accompany
the deportee aboard the Nairobi-bound
SwissAir ight to Zurich and make sure
that the aeroplane takes o with him
on board.
The idea is to make as much noise
as possible to attract the attention of
the passengers and the pilot, one of
the policemen tells me. The airline
has no obligation to have him on
board. If the captain nds him to be
a nuisance, he can refuse to have him
on board. Then we would have no
alternative but to take him back to
the police station and produce him
in court. The court then releases him
back into the streets and we hunt for
him again, take him back to court and
get an order to deport him.... and then
negotiate with an airline to take him
back to Kenya. Long process. Thats
why we thank you!
So how did you know he was
Kenyan and how did you arrest
him?
It is condential, but some of the
refugees in France leave a trail of
evidence. Our job is to make sure he
goes back to Kenya. The immigration
department does the investigations and
hands over the le to the police.
Will you take him up to Nairobi?
No.

African illegal immigrants take part in a protest march on the highway near Lahav
junction in southern Israel on their way to Jerusalem on 16 December last year after
eeing a detention centre in the south where they were being held. A spokeswoman
for Israel Prisons Service told AFP that 282 inmates who were being held at the Holot
detention facility had not shown up for the evening lockdown, and that they had made
their way to Beersheva, more than 50 kilometres away, where they spent the night at
the central bus station in freezing winter conditions.
coverstory coverstory
What happens to him back in
Kenya? Will he be arrested?
No! He has not committed any
crime in Kenya. He was only in
France illegally!
At Zurich airport, I see the trio
minutes to boarding. The young
man holds rmly to a plastic bag
with a Carrefour supermarket logo.
The French policemen hand him over
to the ight crew, sign some papers,
and o we go.
After lunch, I stroll down the aisle
and trace the young man at the rear
of the cabin. He looks tired, red-eyed,
and dishevelled. I sit on one of the
empty seats beside him.
Tell me, Bwana... what happened?
I venture.
Long story.
How did you end up like this? I
encourage him. The pilot announces
that we are overying Sicily and that,
if we look outside, we can see Mt Etna.
I crane my neck but see nothing. We
are cruising 10 kilometres above
the Mediterranean when the story

Like any other youngster, I dreamt
of going abroad. I did not qualify for
university and I did not want to go
to some college. I really wanted to
y out. My uncle had emigrated to
Britain in 2008 and, after a short
time, had sent money to build his
mother a good house in Kinoo. He
soon invited his brother, my agemate,
to join him. I asked them if I could
join them. They said it was okay if I
could nd my way to Britain.
They further red my imagination,

telling me that there were so many
jobs, I would be spoilt for choice.
I felt very lucky because many of
my friends wanted to go abroad
but did not have such crucial
contacts. If only I could nd my
way to Britain!
That was the only invitation I
needed and vowed to nd my way
to Britain. I shared my dream with
my mother. She was supportive
and enthusiastic. She even prayed
about it and, in 2004, gave me
some money to apply for a visa
to the UK.
The embassy in Nairobi,
unfortunately, rejected my
application. Someone advised
me not to bother applying again
if I did not have the necessary
documents to support my case.
Despite the setback, my
determination to emigrate
increased. Then one evening my
mother came home beaming. She
had found someone who could
help me get a visa. She explained
that since it was dicult to get
one to the UK, the easiest option,
she had been told, was to make
sure I entered Europe through
Germany using a Schengen
Visa (a document used by 25
European countries. The UK is
not a member)
Took loan, sold cow
Of course it would cost
money. We were required to
raise Sh250,000. My mother was
hesitant to start raising this kind
of money but I reminded her that
it would be worth it. I would pay
back every single cent and more
once I got a job in the UK.
She applied for a Sh400,000
emergency loan from Mwalimu
Sacco and even sold a cow
and a small-scale business she
was operating at Uthiru, near
Nairobi. In total, we raised about
Sh700,000. That was enough
for the visa bribe, air ticket, and
pocket money.
We paid the visa broker, then
the waiting started. My mother
was particularly worried. The
thought of losing all her
savings took a toll on her. I kept
encouraging her to be patient, that
all would be well, but days turned
into months. I almost lost hope
and, to forget it all, kept myself
busy as a part-time tout along
Waiyaki Way.
Almost three months later,
my mother came home shouting
Kamaa! Kamaa! The contact
was ready with the goods, she
told me.
At last!
The following week we went
to meet the man in a hotel in
downtown Nairobi. As we sipped
tea, the stocky middle-aged man
engaged me in casual banter. He
did not allude immediately to
the visa and I was getting a bit
agitated and impatient. I reduced
my answers to his irrelevant
questions to ah, eh, ooh grunts.
You are a lucky man, he
suddenly said, quickly shing a
thick brown khaki envelop from
his left breast pocket. Here it
is!
Newly recruited machinist
I held the packet and froze for
so long that my mother asked.
Dont you want to see what is
inside?
I slowly opened the package
and the blue Kenyan passport
slid out. I quickly ipped over
the pages. I had never seen a
visa in my life, but the page with
the document seemed to open
on its own. There it was: The
Federal Republic of Germany:
Schengen Visa. A six-month
stay in Germany!
Then the broker opened
a black folder and removed a
sleeve of papers from which he
selected two. Go through these,
he ordered. The first had the
letterhead of an international
company headquartered in
Nairobi. It said that I was going
to Munich for training, that I was
a newly recruited machinist and
needed further training.
The second had a letterhead in
German. The subject was Letter
of Invitation and assured that
my accommodation and upkeep
would be catered for by the
inviting company.
Then his face turned grim and
serious. He straightened his tie.
Now, he began, what I am going
to say is of utmost importance
if you want to stay in Europe.
Once in Frankfurt, you will take
the train to Paris.
In France, you will get into
the Eurostar train that goes to
Britain and alight at the entrance
of the Eurotunnel, in the town of
Calais.
Now, you have to do the
following once in France. That
passport and these letters must
be torn into small pieces and
thrown away. You must have
nothing to show where you have
come from when you arrive at the
Eurotunnel. There you will look
for the camp called Sangatte, two
kilometres from the tunnel, to get
food and a place to sleep. You will
nd many people waiting close to
the tunnel that leads into the UK. I
repeat, you will have no document
with you. Clear?
By this time, I was awestruck
by the mans knowledge of the
geography of those far-flung
places. It looked as if I was
going to be a member of the
cast in some kind of high-drama
espionage lm.
You will no longer be Kenyan,
he continued. You will say you
are from Sudan. You will invent a
story. You will be called John Gok
from Sudan by all your friends and
contacts. Even if you call home,
you must be John Gok. Only you
will know where you came from.
And use only public telephones.
You must not get arrested
Now, over Christmas there
is very little trac in the tunnel.
Your major challenge will be to
enter the tunnel and walk the 25
miles (about 40 kilometres) from
France to the UK. You will meet
people who will to assist you at
a fee. And, remember, you must
not be arrested while trudging
inside that tunnel... because you
will be jailed.
For the rst time since I met
this man, I began to have doubts.
However, I played along for the
sake of both my future and my
mothers. After all, she had taken
a loan and sold a cow for me to
walk through that tunnel into The
Promised Land.
TOMORROW: Kamaa has this
nagging feeling that maybe this is
a mistake, that maybe he should
not take the ight out of Nairobi.
However, he does and learns the
hard way that there is a huge
difference between fantasy and
reality.

Hi,
I am a 30-year-old graduate and
working. About two-and-a-half years
ago, I met this woman. We had a lot of
sex and ended up falling in love and get-
ting married. She was then working as
a house help while I was working in an
M-Pesa shop.
She later got another job and in
November 2013, I also got the job I cur-
rently have. My problem is that she has
lied to me about issues that hold a mar-
riage together.
First, she told me she was born in
1986 but her ID indicates that she was
born in 1982.
When I asked her about it, she
claimed to have lost her ID, and since
she was looking for a job, she used her
cousins, whose name is identical to
hers.
Then, after we started living together,
she changed the story, saying that
when she nished school, she applied
for a job near her home and since she
was underage, lied about her age. This
infuriated me, so I decided to do a lit-
tle investigation into her background.
That is when I found out that she has a
six-year-old daughter. When I asked her
about this, she told me the girl is her
dead sisters and that she was just tak-
ing care of her.
Later, I found out that she had a son
who was about nine or 10. At rst she
denied that either child was hers, then
later admitted that the girl was hers. It
was only much later that she admitted
that the boy was also hers. Her reason-
ing was that if she had informed me
earlier, I would have left her.
I felt betrayed and my love for her
died. Then I was transferred to Nakuru,
where I am still working. She is preg-
nant and due to deliver in June. She
told me to help her until she delivers.
Please advise because I want to move
on, yet I feel that I cannot do that while
still helping her and that I will always
be held back by my child.
Hi,
If all the things you have said are true,
then there is, indeed, a problem with
your relationship. First, any marriage
must be held together by certain values
and practices that are consistent with the
beliefs of the two partners. Your wife has
lied to you several times. These lies show
a character aw that could cost you in
the future if not dealt with. Second, this
woman is pregnant with your baby. It is
important to put that into perspective as
you make decisions about your future. If
you decide to continue living with her,
you have to deal with the baggage and
seek each others forgiveness. Thereafter,
establish values to govern the future, as
well as what happens to her children and
yours.
If you decide to quit this relationship,
you must decide which responsibilities
you will accept towards your unborn
child. Every action has consequences, so
you must share the consequences of get-
ting her pregnant. This means that the
two of you should talk about the future of
the unborn child and the extent of your
involvement. You cannot just walk away.
That would be irresponsible on your
part. This child has some rights too.
I love my babys dad too
much to sue for support
Hi,
I am a single mother. The father of
my toddler does not take my calls when-
ever I call him because I want child
support. Somebody advised me to le
a case through Fida Kenya, but I nd it

iverside, Nairobi. To be precise, it is 67
Riverside Drive.
There is a class in session. Freddy
West, the trainer, is standing in the middle of
the room with her visibly attentive students
siting in a circle around her.
She is challenging them to give real life situ-
ations on how they would use the skills they
had acquired. This is not your ordinary kind of
class. It is the place where fresh graduates can
go to learn additional skills that employers are
likely to be impressed with.
Freddy, who runs this training centre known
as Spire, is a graduate of Harvard University.
She was so concerned about the stubborn gap
between employers and fresh graduates that
she decided to do something about it in her
own small way.
Our universities have emphasised theory
curriculum during training. Thats where I
saw the gap and decided to be a middle party
between universities and employers by equip-
ping job seekers with skills that employers are
looking for, she begins when we nally settle
down for a chat.
What employers want
In her view, students work hard and pay a
lot of money for their university education, and
even more to get Masters and PhD qualica-
tions, but what they are taught in class is not
what the employers want.
She adds: Young people, even the countrys
best university students, have great papers and
academic training, but often lack the soft skills
needed to be really eective employees.
Freddy, thus, oers a course she refers to as
Intensive Career Accelerator. It is a three-
month programme that helps young people to
nd the practical professional know-how they
need to succeed in the workplace.
She then works with her students to help them
nd employment with her employer partners.
Her rm has signed contracts with organisa-
tions that want her to train fresh job seekers in
the desired skills.
The accelerator class also equips gradu-
ates with skills that would be useful in any
organisation, such as how to make a moving
presentation, how to relate with managers, and
how to write a compelling CV.

New courses
All clear for Maseno to
start security studies
Maseno University is now ready to run a new pro-
gramme in strategic and national security (SNS). The
university will admit the rst batch of 40 students for
the certicate SNS course in September.
The university received accreditation for the pro-
gramme late last year, after it signed a memorandum of
understanding with a Danish Defence College.
The two universities will now oer the course jointly
under the School of Development and Strategic Studies
(SDSS). We have already marketed the course and it
is attracting special interest across East Africa. But we
will select only 40 students for a start in the September
intake, Prof Fredrick Wanyama, who heads the SDSS,
conrmed last week.
The school specially targets the military, police,
National Youth Service, private practitioners and other
agencies in East Africa. However, the rst intake com-
prises of only Kenyans, according to Prof Wanyama.
The course will be of great benet to security as
the threat of terrorism grows in East Africa, he said,
adding that the school would use the strategic and na-
tional security course to roll out degree programmes in
advanced military science.
East Africa, especially Kenya, has become keener
on security since the Kenya Defence Forces pursued
the militant Al-Shabaab group into Somalia, raising the
demand for water-tight security in steps to keep terror-
ists at bay.
During the launch, Maseno University Vice-Chancellor
Prof Domnic Makawiti, received a donation of equipment
worth Sh1.7 million.
Major Henry Laugessen, who spoke on behalf of the
Danish college, said that the institution would donate
more books worth $1,500, and provide four lecturers
for the programme. The Danish college has established
networks in Kenya and has a bilateral agreement with
the Kenyan Navy, among other central security institu-
tions, he said.
Major Laugessen explained that while the Danish
Defence College oered three-day security training
in collaboration with the University of Nairobi, Keny-
atta University and Maseno annually, the new course
launched in Maseno was an exclusive window to look
into greater security partnerships.
Meanwhile, Masinde Muliro University of Science
and Technology (MMUST) has been accredited to oer
diploma and degree programmes for nutritionists and
dieticians. The chairman of the Accreditation Board,
Prof Edward Karuri, said the university was the rst to
be granted full accreditation to teach the course. Other
institutions oering the study under provisional accredi-
tation have until June 30 to regularise their operations.
MMUST scored 88.2 per cent during an inspection of
facilities and infrastructure for teaching the course. Vice
Chancellor, Prof Frederick Otieno, said the institution
had worked hard to meet the guidelines set by the regu-
latory bodies before being cleared to oer the course.
The university has enrolled 109 students for the
degree programme. The accreditation team was led by
Prof Julia Ojiambo, the chairperson of the Kenya Nutri-
tionists and Dieticians Institute.
For us, this has been a long journey, which began
three years ago. The university has been operating on
provisional accreditation certicate. We have worked
hard to attain the full accreditation, said Prof Otieno
at the launch of the programme at the university last
Wednesday.
In her remarks, Prof Ojiambo asked other universities
to follow the example set by MMUST by having their
teaching curriculum approved by the regulatory body.
We would like to see training in nutrition and di-
etetics harmonised across the institutions oering the
courses in the country, to produce qualied profession-
als, she said.

She also oers a full set of core
professional skills, including com-
munication skills, customer service,
sales techniques, use of the internet
as a resource for research, and per-
sonal branding.
Go beyond what colleges oer
Freddys task is to go beyond what
colleges and universities oer.
According to her, judging the
worth of a graduate by the grades
that they got is supercial. An em-
ployer may miss a diligent candidate
if they tie all their admission criteria
on grades.
She seeks fresh graduates who
have integrity, character, and great
work ethic people who are time-
keepers.
Talent is not only shown in aca-
demic papers, she stresses.
Freddys classes run full-time for
three months a crash programme
for a course that would otherwise
run for two years, she says.
Her students are required to make
a down payment. They pay the rest
upon conclusion of the course and
after getting a paying job.
Eliminating jokers
She explains: The fee they pay
is a way of eliminating jokers and
getting people to commit. One will
commit to something they have paid
for. If we do not charge, the classes
will be ocked by people who do not
take it seriously.
Once one has graduated from
the class, Spire shows them how
to write good CVs and how to wow
prospective employers during an
interview.
Not ready for employment
However, a job is not guaranteed,
especially if you do not impress
Freddy.
One must have shown commit-
ment in class. If you never kept time,
didnt hand in homework in time, I
would not pass you to a prospective
employer because with that kind of
behaviour, you are not ready for
employment, she warns.
Jobs exist
Her interaction with prospective
employers and the fact that she is
an employer herself has opened her
to the fact that jobs exist, only that
employers often lack the right people
for the positions they wish to ll.
She says: The strange thing is
that its not always an issue of job
shortages. Employers say that they
actually struggle to ll thousands of
entry-level jobs each year.
So, on one hand the average
university graduate looks for work
for more than 16 months, and on
the other, employers cant easily nd
great entry-level hires.

emove your earrings, in-
structs Mumbi Njukia. She
is taking me for a tour around
the Kenchic Tigoni processing plant,
where she is the factory manager.
According to the companys
policy, you do not walk around the
plant with such loose things. They
may fall on the meat and contami-
nate it.
This is where Kenchics chickens
are slaughtered and packaged. At
least 22,000 chickens go through the
process here every day in prepara-
tion for delivery to the market.
The company also has a line of
chicken meat products manufac-
tured from here, including seasoned
minced chicken stued in casings
to make dierent types of sausages
and burgers, and marinated chicken
for specic clients.
It is Mumbis responsibility to
maintain a clean plant, free of health
concerns. She tells me chicken is
particularly sensitive, and thus such
precautionary measures must be
taken very seriously and followed
to the letter.
The functioning of the factory and
its processes fall on her shoulders.
She is the one who oversees the daily
operations of the factory, spanning
from planning and budgeting to
supervision of production.
She ensures that company poli-
cies and procedures are followed in
every department. Put dierently,
she is responsible for the overall
wellbeing of the factory, machines
and the people working here, in-
cluding the sales manager, quality
assurance manager, stores manager,
technical manager, security ocers,
drivers and others.
Once in a while, she will get her
hands dirty and join the workers at
their various work stations to help
cut up chicken, for example.
Even though she is the boss, this
way, she says, she is able to interact
freely with her team. She can shake
o the boss tag and communicate
freely with junior sta.
She explains that to do a good
job as a factory manager, good
coordination and planning, and
impressive employee relation skills
matter a lot.
In liaison with the sales manager,
she will get feedback on how the
market was the day before and the
projections for the day. These details
guide her in the production work
It is my duty to ensure that the
plant is running eciently and eec-
tively at all times by making sure that
the resources, materials, machinery
and sta are optimally used. I also
verify products quality and safety.
This means I have to see to it that
sta are adhering to the food safety
standards and good manufacturing
practices, she says.
She will be planning for the daily
collection and allocate routes to the
truck drivers. She has to deal with
inventory issues to gure out what
needs to be replenished to ensure
proper and timely ordering and pro-
curement of all materials needed in
the plant.
A factory manager has to be a
people person too, Mumbi says,
and thats because the job involves
constant monitoring of workers to
spot any procedural mus and cor-
rect them in time, while keeping an
eye on the targets.
You must know people well;
their weaknesses, strengths and
enhance their capacity by building
them, Mumbi advises.
Having had training in Kaizen has
enabled her to do all these. Kaizen
taught her the tenets of reducing
waste and improving productivity.
These are central if she must run a
productive and protable facility.
Mumbi also manages nances.
She must run a productive and
protable facility.
She also has qualications in qual-
ity management, which are core in
the food manufacturing industry.
We are audited internationally, so
we must meet international quality
standards. The dierent clients we
serve are also continuously auditing
us, she says.
Mumbis well rounded training
enables her to handle these di-
verse tasks.
She has a Bachelor of Science
degree in Foods and Nutrition,
and Business Management from the
University of Eastern Africa, Baraton
(Eldoret), and a Masters degree in
the same from the University of
Hudderseld, England.
She says one of the rst and cru-
cial things she does in the morning
after quick meetings with the vari-
ous departments in preparation for
the day is to check on the machine,
which must be in meticulous condi-
tion so as not to cause any lapses
in production.
I can listen to a machine and
know there is something wrong
with it. I have developed an an-
ity for that, she declares and adds,
If the machine breaks down, it
interferes with all other schedules
and processes, yet we have to meet
production deadlines.
Breakdowns are her worst night-
mare, but thankfully, she says, they
are very occasional.

The workplace is a congregation of people from
dierent walks of life and with diverse tempera-
ments and characters.
We are all raised dierently. Some people are
raised to voice their opinions, while others are
taught to turn the other cheek.
Sometimes the pressures of work aect how we
relate with each other. Occasionally, workers go into
outbursts that turn out ugly. How we carry ourselves
through such moments matter. If you are new on the
job, it matters even more. Its always easier to re
new recruits than the veterans.
Should you nd yourself in a conict, rst es-
tablish why your colleague may be behaving in
that manner towards you. What is the cause of the
problem and how can it be best dealt with? There is
always a reason behind every action.
Your interpretation matters
For more experienced workers, conicts are usu-
ally dealt with through a mutual agreement between
the parties involved. But when you are new to the
workplace and you have not interacted with people
of diverse backgrounds under pressure, you might
be drawn into unpleasant behaviour when attacked
or when you feel you have been mistreated.
Your interpretation of the situation also matters.
Find out if there is truly a problem. It could be that
this person who keeps involving you in projects has
seen a huge potential in you and as a superior or
colleague, would want to push you to a limit for you
to exploit the potential in you.
So, that person could be perpetually asking you
to do a myriad of tasks with good intentions. Learn,
therefore, not to rush into conclusions. Analyse the
situation to tell the dierence between someone
who is looking for a way to frustrate you and one
who is keen to help you.
Should you nd that there is indeed a problem,
weigh if you need to deal with it or not. If the prob-
lem is aecting your work, then it would be best to
nd a solution. If not, then you may opt not need to
act. This will save you valuable working hours.
Sometimes the problems that are created by oth-
ers are opportunities to show our capabilities.
For example, if a colleague decides to sabotage
a project you are undertaking as an individual, you
might be tempted to retaliate.
However, the best way to handle such a situation
is to anticipate problems so that you are not caught
unaware.
Additionally, when dealing with conicts and
problems, you must be a diplomat. Having three key
approachestact, directness and opennesswill
serve you well.
Tell your colleague with all honesty the troubles
you are facing, trying at the same time to under-
stand their own problems with you.
Oer constructive criticism
Be well-rehearsed. Oer constructive criticism.
Deliver it in a calm, polite, tactful, diplomatic and
non-threatening manner.
Many times, we devalue the importance of a face-
to-face discussion and opt for email exchanges.
Listen to arguments keenly to get the other persons
perspective before you act.
Respond in a clear and open way, giving room
for compromise. Do not approach your colleague
in an argumentative manner. If you feel that you
are about to get into an ugly situation, take a step
back and compose yourself before articulating your
next point.
Remember that it is important to safeguard your
relationships at work. Finish your discussion with an
end in mind.
Try as hard as you can, however angry you may
be, not to say things that will hurt the other party or
give rise to more confrontation.
Consider involving a mediatorone who will lis-
ten to both sides of the story and give an unbiased
suggestion for an amicable solution.

n such a competitive world, good
grades allow for entry into good
universities, which in turn means
a good degree, and hopefully a great
job and career.
So, whenever national exams draw
near, many parents start ringing up
private tutors to provide last minute
coaching for their children.
The tutors are hired to pump
in knowledge that these children
should have been learning over the
years anyway.
Really, why do children need tutors?
Should schools not be teaching your
children well enough to succeed in
their exams?
Additional support at school
Before the start of each academic
year, schools and teachers are given
a curriculum, as well as the objec-
tives and outcomes expected for
each subject.
A teacher who has been at it for
years would have the experience to
know what is expected of their stu-
dents for nal exams. Their wealth of
experience should mean they should
be teaching and guiding their students
towards success.
Yet too many children go to after-
school tutors to be taught what they
should already be taught in class.
If a school teacher feels that a stu-
dent is weak, it is their duty to provide
additional support at school, and not
encourage the student to attend private
tuition. In many cases it is the same
teacher who provides tuition to their
own pupils, for a fee of course.
Many parents do not understand
For a student to truly benet from
extra tuition, the student needs to
practise. For every hour of tuition, the
student should be practising for three
to ve hours on their own time.
Unfortunately, many parents do not
understand this. And with their busy
work and social schedules, they use
after-school tuition as an alternative
form of childcare, where their children
can complete their homework, social-
ise with their friends, and learn what
should have been taught in class.
A huge disservice
In fact, many tuition centres guide
children through their homework,
which does the child a huge disservice.
Homework is there to help children to
learn on their own, and only turn to
help when it is really necessary.
Education systems can also be
blamed for this craze about after-
school tuition. When education is
based on rote learning memorising
and regurgitating facts students cram
page after page, fact after fact, which
they simply spew out in an exam.
Ask the student a few months
later about what they had learnt, and
chances are they would have forgotten
quite a lot.
Whereas an education system that
uses critical thinking, in which a stu-
dent is taught the facts, and how to
apply them, memorising would not
help. They need to understand what
they are studying so that when faced
with problems, they are able to apply
their knowledge with better success.
Too much pressure
What about a child who is not clever?
Parents put too much pressure on their
children to succeed.
Every child is expected to go to uni-
versity. What if a child really does not
have the academic ability to succeed at
formal education, but might be better
in vocational education? Should they
be pushed so hard?
Schools must put in place mecha-
nisms by which they can identify the
academic ability of each child, and be
able to advise parents on every childs
ability, so that they choose appropriate
courses and are only pushed to the
limit of their natural ability.
If you have sent your child to tuition
for many years, the tutor has not done
a good job.
A tutors role should be to teach a
child, so that the child eventually does
not need tuition at all.

national Education Centre, Nairobi

CT Cabinet Secretary, Dr Fred
Matiangi, is threatening to throw
the book at any telecommunica-
tions service provider that does not
adhere to the network quality threshold
set by the regulator, the Communica-
tions Authority of Kenya (CAK).
Dr Matiangi has noted that the
quality issues could result in fraud,
especially where dropped calls cost
users the full terminating fee, which
is never refunded.
Even Safaricom, the biggest mobile
telecom service provider, has been
reminded that CAK could terminate
its operating license, if it feels that
the quality of service is not up to
standard.
True, the telecoms regulator could
withdraw any operators license, but in
Safaricoms case, I doubt they can.
T h e most severe punishment
t h e government could mete
out on Safaricom is a
ne. There are a number
of reasons.
Shareholding
Safaricom is still partly owned by
the government, which thus obtains
shareholders benets, quality of serv-
ice notwithstanding.
It is therefore in the governments
best interests that Safaricom keeps
operating. The government will never
severely reprimand Safaricom.
For the government to eectively
punish Safaricom for one reason or
another, that relationship must come
to an end.
Tax
Safaricom puts the most amount
of money into government through
tax than any other corporation in the
country. Safaricom all but guarantees
billions to the Kenya Revenue Author-
ity, and delivers every year.
Recently, the company announced
a cool Sh23 billion in prots for its
nancial year that ended in March.
A corporation of that magnitude
that puts a fair portion of the bread
on Kenyas table has a lot more leeway
in what they can do.
The government needs Safaricoms
tax to keep coming in. A shutdown of
the company would mean a signicant
reduction in government revenue.
Mpesa
Then there is Mpesa, Safaricoms
money machine. Finally, Safaricom will
be operating Mpesa locally, with the
help of a couple of Chinese engineers.
For operations sake, it is wonderful
for Safaricom and for Kenyans as
well. We can expect better perform-
ance, reduced delays and wishfully,
reduced costs.
Safaricom needs Mpesa. Kenyans
need Mpesa too. It still remains the
most ecient way to send money from
one party to another. It has become a
popular mode of payment. If Mpesa
were to be withdrawn today, Kenyas
economy would suer a signicant
shock, even if, temporarily so. That
is a risk the government would not
dare, no matter the odds.
Government contracts
The government must be suering
from Stockholm Syndrome. On the one
hand, it threatens Safaricom over qual-
ity issues. On the other hand, it goes
ahead to award the company a contract
as sensitive a matter as security.
The company recently pitched and
secured a deal with the government to
provide a complex national security
communication infrastructure.
Clearly, the government threats
against Safaricom are pointless. It
still has such unwavering faith in the
company to grant it the contract.
Poor execution history
The regulator itself is partly to blame
for never having put its foot down.
Complaints over network quality
issues are not new. They date back
several years, even more than 10,
and the regulator failed then. CAK is
unlikely to win this one either.
History, money, politics, and in-
uence are all on Safaricoms side,
including a good portion of the
countrys population.
While Safaricom may have genuine
technical challenges in achieving the
desired quality, money is a driving
factor and the quality Safaricom
should be oering would certainly
impact prots.
Next year, the company will add
more to the governments coffers.
The cabinet secretary will issue
threats, but I doubt if they will lead
to much change.

COMRADE LIFE
BY MERCY NJOKI
mercy100innocent@gmail.com
In the four year journey that makes the
life of a university student, behaviour and
general code of conduct change with time.
First Year students are easily identied
in a crowd of comrades. They are always
running up and down to catch that lec-
ture. They look rather confused and out
of place.
They sit on the college benches gazing
at other students. They read for long hours
to get that A. They are the type who stay
in the library until it is closed.
As time matures, these rst years go
shedding most of these behaviours to
adopt new ones.
Second Year comrades are possibly
nursing relationships or recovering from
break-ups. And for most Third and Fourth
Year students, moving out of the campus
hostels to rent a room in the outskirts is
seen as a mature move.
They do this probably to prepare them-
selves for the outside world, aware that
soon, they will not be students.
And with the job insecurity in Kenya,
they update their curriculum vitae on time
and start dropping them in oces in search
for jobs and internship.
Most of them change their dress code
and start wearing more formal or at least
mature outts. They are preparing for entry
into the job market.
You can easily identify a Fourth Year stu-
dent. Most are usually composed, neat and
focused, save for a few who have remained
confused since First Year.
So, in this new semester, behavioural
change is expected as students graduate
from one year of study to another. First
Years have already been admitted and
every student is waiting for Freshers party
to ocially welcome the new students.
Higher Education Loans Board oces
are busy with students lling forms and
queuing to get funding. Students are reg-
istering units for this new semester, which
is expected to be tough going given Prof
Jacob Kaimenyis recent suggestion. The
education cabinet secretary wants univer-
sity fees increased.
This is also the time that comrades are
chasing missing marks with the con-
cerned lecturers. Its like a fulltime job.
During college campaigns, every candi-
date vying for the position of the academic
aairs secretary promise comrades that if
elected, they would enhance faster and
convenient resolution of the perennial
problem of missing marks a promise that
none has been able full.
Nothing breaks a students morale than
to study so hard for an exam, to wake up
early to sit for it, and then learn that the
marks went missing.
Another headache for new students is
allocation of hostel rooms. Not every com-
rade will be lucky to get one.
Hostels are given names in regard to the
quality of life lived by the occupants and
the general outlook of the building. Some
are called Nakumatt, Ukwala Tuskys, while
others are called USA, Somalia and Kenya.
The hostels that are always on demand
are those nicknamed USA and Nakumatt
because they dont look old, are spacious,
have hot showers and experience rare
power blackouts.
In Somalia hostels, washrooms are not
regularly cleaned. The sockets are not func-
tional. There is no regular ow of water, and
you cant stretch in the room because when
you do so, you ll it up.

Job creation in any country is all about
labour-intensive industrialisation and pos-
sessing the requisite skills needed to drive
industrial growth.
A study done last year at the Techni-
cal University of Kenya by Prof Wilson
Ogolla sums up how far the country has
to go before qualifying as an industrialised
nation.
Kenya urgently requires four cadres of
sta: Engineers, engineering technologists,
technicians, and artisans in a ratio of 1:2:
4:16 if we are to attain the goals of Vision
2030. This translates to about 450,000
artisans, 90,000 technicians, 22,500 tech-
nologists, and 7,500 engineers.
China, with a population of 1.5 billion, has
250,000 engineers graduating, resulting in
one engineer for every 130 people, while
India, with a population of 1.2 billion, has
350,000 engineering graduands.
South Africa, with a population of about
50 million, has a yearly graduating class
of 1,500 engineers. In comparison, Kenya
manages to train just about 700 engineers
annually. In 2012, the country had 7,328
registered engineers, the bulk of these be-
ing registered graduate engineers. Thus, in
Kenya, for every 6,300 people, there is one
engineer.
Things are so bad that the engineers in this
country have to adopt other professions
because they cannot nd jobs. Another
drawback is that Kenya has only one pro-
fessional body for all cadres of engineering
sta the Engineers Board of Kenya.
As Prof Ogola further illustrates in his
study, this has serious implications for the
overall growth of gross domestic product,
which should be largely driven by the
manufacturing sector.
Technical Vocational Education and
Training (TVET) is imperative if we are
to attain the Vision 2030 goals, since it
is the responsibility of such institutions
to churn out technologists, technicians,
and artisans. Sadly, vocational training in
this country has been largely neglected
through lack of teaching facilities, obsolete
equipment, and lack of trained personnel.
Without this kind of training, this country
will nd it dicult to move to the next
level of industrialisation.
We, therefore, need to revise our model of
education and curriculums to be able to
ll this gap.
So far, Germany has one of the most envi-
able training systems in the world where
students apply to companies for paid ap-
prenticeships while at the same time being
enrolled in school for training.
Called Berufsschule, the system ensures
that upon graduating, the students will
have had both hands-on training and aca-
demic qualications. This almost assures
them of a job. If everything goes well, they
can continue to work in the company and
rise to managerial posts or become self-
employed after a while.
Sweden, which a century ago was one of
the poorest countries in Europe, is known
for inculcating innovation into its educa-
tion system, right from the early stages of
childhood. It is also home to big compa-
nies such as IKEA, a furnishings and home
appliances company.
If similar schemes were adapted to local
needs and adopted, it would lead to more
qualied sta and help the country to
make the leap envisioned in Vision 2030.
The biggest benefactors would be the
jua kali sector, and this would lead to the
growth of Small to Medium Enterprises
(SMEs). SMEs are an engine for industrial
growth.
The manufacturing sector in this country
is in dire need of new ideas, which do not
grow in a vacuum. Let us look into our ed-
ucational system to see how we can lead
to a more innovative future generation.

It is clear that you are under-

you have discovered about him.
First, his promiscuity is bound
to harm someone. This has to be
dealt with if there is ever going

Second, his seemingly arrogant
attitude towards you can paralyse
and demotivate you.
Every spouse wants to know

I suggest that you take time to
heal and be patient and persever-

for the relationship and commit

Dear Kitoto,
I have been reading the advice
you give people on Mondays and it
is clear that your wisdom is helping
many families and relationships.
I am 26 years old and have been
married for three years as a second
wife. I have one child with my hus-
band. We were happy, although I was
the only one working and support-
ing both families. Then my husband
started taking my love for granted.
He would beat me, but I would for-
give him and go back to him. The
worst thing is that I found him sleep-
ing with another woman and I am
confused. Should I walk out of this
marriage? This is not the rst time he
is doing this to me.
Kindly advise because I do not
know what to do. My parents are not
aware that I am married as a second
wife.
Jane
Hi,
Personally, I believe that a spouse
who decides to have an extra-marital
aair is very likely to repeat it unless
he deals with the issues and takes
concrete steps to change the habit.
Consequently, your mans decision to
take you as his second wife was not
a guarantee that his appetite for sex
outside marriage would end. I am,
therefore, not surprised that he chose
to have another aair.
I really do not see why you are con-
fused about what you have found out.
The writing is on the wall and you
can now nally seen what you should
have seen long ago. My suggestion is
that you consider what your husbands
indelity could mean in this era of sex-
ually transmitted infections. The fact
that your parents do not know about
your marriage is causing you concern,
perhaps because of what you think
they expected of you.
In any relationship, having values
and upholding them is vital. Still, it
is not the end of the world. I think
you should get out of this mans life
and not allow his actions to give you
extra baggage. He has chosen a path
he feels comfortable with. You should
chart your own path towards healing
and making a future for your child.
My husband has become
a stranger
Dear Kitoto,
Thanks for the good work you are
doing to help marriages in crisis.
I have been in a Christian marriage
for the past 10 years. For the rst
eight years, my marriage was beauti-
ful and there was nothing to ght
about. Both of us were committed to
the relationship. Then, last year, my
husband received huge amounts of
money and changed completely. He
started drinking with his friends
something he had not done for eight
Hi Mr Kitoto,
We have been having dier-
ences since we formalised our
marriage in church nine years
ago.
My husband is a very dif-
cult person to deal with.
First, he believes in what he
knows and is so insensitive
that he does not believe that
other people matter. I have
separated from him, though
not legally, by taking up a job
in Nakuru while he lives in
Nairobi. We have been sepa-
rated since 2009. Because I
really loved him, I would take
the children (aged three and
seven) to see him over the
weekend. He never bothers to
come to see us unless under
intense pressure. He has also
over the years stopped sup-
porting us and does not even
call to know how the children
are doing. Recently, I sent him
a text telling him that I was no
longer interested in being in a
relationship with him. He told
me to get the papers because
he was ready to sign them.
Since our son was born in
2010, he has never done any-
thing for him. He contributes
nothing, even though he has a
stable job. I have to keep beg-
ging him for help. Now I am
considering seeking help from
the Childrens Department to
compel him to assist. Person-
ally, I want nothing from a man
who wishes I never existed in
his life. I appreciate myself,
although it took time for me
to regain my self-esteem. We
have not communicated since
April 2013 and he seems okay
with that. I stopped the com-
municating when I realised
that I was the one always tak-
ing the initiative.
I used to visit him often but
he would ignore me and did
not seem to miss me. I sus-
pected him of having aairs
and to my surprise, my fears
were conrmed.
What would you conclude

years and started coming home
late. After a while I could not take
it anymore, so we separated. We
have tried to reconcile many times
but he has been hard-headed and
will not forgive me.
I later realised that he was also
moving with several women who
have now got married or moved
on. For a year now he has not even
supported his own son, but is now
married a woman with three chil-
dren who are not his. What are my
legal rights? Should I just forget
about him and move on?
Hi,
A marriage of 10 years has a lot
of history that is lled with both
fun and pain.
In a marriage where there is in-
adequate disclosure, some of these
feelings of disappointment might
not be revealed until much later.
Consequently, for your man to
move in with another woman with
three children, leaving you and his
own child, there could be some his-
tory that is not apparent from what
you have written.
In addition, I am surprised that
money instantly made your man
leave such a loving marriage. My
suspicion is that there might have
been hidden issues that triggered
this drastic change in his behav-
iour.
Back to your question, Kenyan
laws provide avenues for seeking
child support. I urge you to seek
legal advice from a lawyer or a legal
body like Fida Kenya.
I need a mother gure
Hello,
Thanks so much for the good
job that you have been doing.
I am 26 and was orphaned at a
very tender age, so I grew up in an
orphanage.
I feel empty and unappreciated.
I wish I could get someone who
would allow me to call her my
mother, someone with whom I can
share a mother-and-son relation-
ship despite my age. I feel that
there is a vacuum in me that needs
to be lled. I know and appreciate
life. Kindly advise me if it is okay
to nd a mother gure.
Hi,
According to an article in the
New York Times sometime last year,
If a son or daughter who loses a
mother never receives adequate
substitute mothering, the loss can
do long-term damage to his or
her self-esteem, ability to relate to
other people, overall feelings of se-
curity, and ability to trust others.
God intended children to receive
the loving care of both parents for
holistic growth.
That said, I must reiterate
that there are many great single
parents, grandmothers, and grand-
fathers who have done a ne job of
raising children from such homes
or homes where both parents have
died. However, this does not ne-
gate the fact that the place of both
parents in the life of a child is ir-
replaceable.
In some instances, children have
faced both physical and sexual
abuse from fathers, stepbrothers,
or other close family members after
their mothers died or were absent.
This has led to some of these
children facing diculties in
maintaining relationships or even
making them depressed due to lack
of that essential emotional care.
It is easy for us to overlook
motherless children and assume
that a void such as the one you
have expressed is not important.
I suggest that you and other
children in a similar situation
look for an older aunt or your
spiritual leaders wife to ll that
void.
Such help from a mature female
relative or respectable spiritual
couple will go a long way in meet-
ing this need.

recently signed 17 trade deals with China
that will further strengthen the ties between
our countries. But, as my colleague Eunice
Kilonzo says, you should not learn Mandarin
just yet.
As China goes from rural to urban, there
is increasing pressure on agricultural land.
Whole villages, along with farming land, are
being gentried into high-rise metropolises.
According to the Food and Agriculture
Organisation (FAO), China has one of the
worst arable land-to-population ratios,
well below world average. Adopting GM
crops can only get you so far; you actually
need land at some point. When you have
that many people, feeding them is a great
concern.
Ecological disasters
China values hydrologists more than
any other country and has even had one
as president (Hu Jintao.) However, its
continued hyper-extraction of water from
its rivers has led to ecological disasters and
extinction of species.
Excessive use of Mongolian coal has
made the air in many places unbreathable.
It has territorial disputes with India, South
Korea, Japan, and the Philippines. Its only
real ally, North Korea, is more of an anchor
than a buoy.
China fought to maintain North Korea
during the 1950s war of the Korean
Peninsula, and now it must maintain the
hellhole as a buer between it and the
American forces stationed at the 38th
parallel. The precarious state that North
Korea is in means that China should always
be ready to inherit a half-dead country with
nukes at short notice.
Now, to its greatest asset: Its population.
China has no social safety net for its citizens.
In societies without welfare, people usually
have many children as insurance for old age.
China, in its wisdom, limited the number
of children you could have to one. Many
people will have no one to look after them
when they are old.
A while back, the country passed a law
requiring people to visit their parents
occasionally. The one-child policy means
that the working population will fall, and
continue falling, by more than an arithmetic
progression in the coming years. The
working population will also grey faster
than expected.
Besides, other countries along the
Mekong River like Vietnam and Cambodia
have cheaper worker rates. Smartphone
companies are moving south to exploit
this. The undercutters are being undercut.
China is trying to bridge this by using child
labour to make electronics, as reported
by the United Kingdoms The Guardian
newspaper last year. Beijing is losing its
advantage.
As for the workers, companies put nets
outside the windows of some of their largest
factories because there are so many jumpers.
Labour conditions are inhospitable.
Besides, the greying of society will mean
that Chinas median age will probably
shoot up faster than any other society not
at war. They will soon have a top-heavy
age pyramid, with no method to a young
working base to support them.
That they are losing their unique selling
point is not the greatest worry caused by the
short-sighted, one-child policy. The policy
also made parents value boys more than
girls. By some estimates, the country has 70
million more men than women. Surplus men
are usually disaected and end up being a
problem to stability.
This brings me to the reason China is
investing so heavily outside its borders.
After the Asian nancial crash of 1997,
China started hoarding dollars to insulate
the economy from nancial shocks caused
by heavy reliance on foreign investment in
securities. The opportunity cost of loaning
Kenya money is developing western China.
This means that, outside the gigantic cities,
many rural Chinese lack government
services. Per capita income shows that
China is still a lower middle-income
country. It does not rank among the top
80 richest countries. If you were to consider
its earning per person, China would simply
be Namibia with nukes.
Buying inuence abroad
Beijing is getting foreign infrastructure at
the cost of building it at home. China cannot
really aord to loan us that money. Its rural
areas lack schools and hospitals. Such a
system can only breed resentment. Why
build superhighways in the savannah when
some people lack hospitals at home?
China should be using this money to
develop the western part of the country, not
eastern Africa. It is buying inuence abroad
at the cost of setting up infrastructure at
home.
It is also not a democracy; the country
is ruled by a cabal of party appointees
with near-absolute powers. The people
live in a one-party state and are powerless
against the might of the state. Yet humans,
wherever they are, yearn for freedom more
than anything else. China cannot export its
values of know your place and one-party
rule. India has proved that a billion-plus
democracy is achievable at around the same
time China re-invented itself.
China has a mesh of problems from
which it will be dicult to extricate itself
before it can oer leadership to the world.
It is not that China is the Titanic and
headed for several ice oes; it is more like
the Hindenburg, a more imminent and
combustible disaster waiting to happen.
By any political, cultural, or military
measure, China will never dominate our
future or the future of our world. It is
more likely that China will further bow
to democratic ideals or collapse under the
weight of its unsustainable system than
that the countrys one-party ideals will be
exported around the world.
We also live in a world created by the
West, and one which will continue to be
dominated by the West for the rest of this
century.
The West is still best if you consider
that it is the richest, strongest, and most
inventive. China may be the second
largest economy (rst in some books),
but Europe and America still generate
most of the worlds wealth. China is stuck
as a client state wholly reliant on selling
manufactured products to Americans, whom
it loans money.
The world yearns to achieve ideas,
principles, and living standards that were
created in Europe. Our aspiration, shelter,
clothing, finance, and society were all
invented in the West. Even the way I
organise words in my head is from the West.
The future may be built in China, but it will
be imagined, conceived, and improved by
Western thinking. Our hope is to be less
like China and more like the West.
The Economist Intelligent Unit projects
that 30 years into the future, the top two
cities that attract the most talent and
money will still be the ones that form
the pact of Atlanticism. The world is still
going to be tilted towards the London-New
York axis.
Our future and security is underwritten
by America and Britain. Kenya should
face West because it would be better o
being more like Britain and America than
China.

Huge property bubble
In China, the apartments that farmers
were evicted from to make room have no
tenants. Beijing has inated the worlds
largest property bubble. It calculates
its GDP by buildings built, not sold, so
there is a tendency to build even when
there is no one coming in. There are cities
with no people moving in them, but still,
more are being built. Some say that the
Chinese property market has burst. Others
say it will burst. What is certain is that
they are in big trouble, as many of their
citizens have put money in the speculative
property market. The economy
increasingly looks like it is on shaky legs.
When the bubble explodes, China will
most likely call in as many of its external
loans as possible. We should always have
that at the back of our minds.
Kenya has been cosying up to China, hoping to ride the wave to prosperity. We have a
Confucius institute, airport terminals from China, a Chinese-built superhighway and soon, a
super railway from Beijing.

After Grandfather had
nished reading the letter.
Grandmother clapped her
hands, saying, Oh, Jaduong,
this is something you
must do! You must tell our
granddaughter everything
you know about our beloved
Jaramogi!
Yes, Nyar Asembo, you are
right, Grandfather replied. But,
he added with a chuckle, She
is talking about getting me
a mobile! A mobile?! What
would I do with a mobile in
the village?
Whats an obilo?
Grandmother asked. She was
puzzled.
This is a telephone that
one carries in the hands. One
can go with it wherever one
wishes, Grandfather answered,
rubbing his wet eyes.
What are you talking
about, Jaduong? A telephone
that one can carry in the
hands and walk around? Can
one take it to Bondo town
then?
Even Kisumu.
Mayo we. And even in
Kisumu they will still be able to
talk in it? Then you must have
one, Jaduong. You will be the
rst old man in this village to
own one!
The two old people looked
at each other and laughed.
But Caleb says they
should buy me shades, added
Grandfather.
Sed? Are those also obilo?
Grandfather laughed even
more loudly. They are a type
of angolo glasses.
But your eyes are not sick.
These are not for sick
people.
What are they for, then?
They protect ones eyes
from the strong rays of the
sun.
You also need those. You
will look like Jaramogi. He
used to wear seds.
Grandfather laughed
more loudly. Oginga Odinga
didnt use shades. His were
proper glasses prescribed by
a doctor. He needed them on
medical grounds.
Jaduong, how would I
know all these things?
Never mind, Nyar Asembo.
Theres not a single person
who knows everything in this
world.

razil might be the biggest country most of
the world doesnt know a whole heckuva
a lot about.
This is however beginning to change as
nancial fortunes for some have soared in
recent years, helping to lift some 50 per cent of the
country into the middle class.
Of this gure, 40 million were added to the middle
class between 2004 and 2010, under the government
of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
But success hasnt come without problems. The
mass June demonstrations over chronic economic
disparity and dissatisfaction with the federal govern-
ment united the poor and the middle class, exposing a
troubling social reality.
Still, if theres one thing Brazil is known for world-
wide, its a gregarious and energetic population.
Now that Brazil will be hosting the World Cup next
month and the Olympics in 2016 (massive public ex-
penditures that many there deeply oppose), its time
for a crash course in all things Brazilian. (CNNSport)
A kiss, other goodies
await you in Brazil
1
There are no
introverts in Brazil
Or at least none you can
nd without a private detec-
tive.
Its a vivacious culture that
can bring you out of your
shell, help you unwind and
have the best time of your
life.
2
English isnt spoken
widely
As Portuguese speakers on a
Spanish continent far from the
English-speaking world, Brazil-
ians have been a linguistic uni-
verse unto themselves.
Not many Brazilians speak
English, particularly outside Rio
de Janeiro or Sao Paulo.
5
Theres an enormous gap between rich
and poor
In world rankings for the gap between rich and
poor, Brazil has the 11th biggest gulf, coming in after a
group of impoverished African countries.
6
One of its biggest cities is in the middle of the
Amazon
The seventh largest city in Brazil sits halfway up the Amazon
River, where the Rio Negro intersects the great river. An obscure
outpost home to rubber barons in the 19th century, today Man-
aus is an industrial titan of two million residents.
7
Parties are important
Brazilians produce two of the biggest bashes the
world has known in Carnival and the New Years Reveil-
lon celebration.
But the festivities continue throughout the year,
thanks to an abundance of regional celebrations, cities
that promote the arts and a stockpile of religious holi-
days. In Rio, the city puts on free music fests and in Re-
cife, at the citys outdoor concert stage across the street
from the beach, free concerts.
8
Rhythm is king
The Brazilian knack for improvis-
ing on any musical theme makes it
unrivaled in the quantity and qual-
ity of dierent musical rhythms
and styles. The outside world
knows bossa nova, a slowed-
down samba mixed with
American jazz and French
impressionism; and samba,
a blend of African drum
circles and European
marches. But Brazil dances
to the beat of many dier-
ent drummers, reecting its
diverse population.
9
Kissing strangers is customary
Since they dont place much stock in personal
space, Brazilians have an easier time of breaking
through the emotional space, too. Its customary for a
male introduced to an adult female to provide a kiss
on both cheeks and on leaving, too.
10
Piranha wont eat you if you fall in an Amazon
river
Its burned indelibly into every movie fans mind the end-
ish feeding frenzy of piranha stripping a human down to dental
work. It turns out these pint-sized demons arent nearly the
sociopaths theyre cracked up to be.

Its is an outdoor world
From the sidewalk cafes
of Rio to backyard barbecues to
beaches up and down the long
coast to the wild interior, Brazil is
a place to be outside.
Brazilians revel in an outdoor
culture, as bets a tropical land,
and they have world-class natural
environments to play in.
JUNE 12 - JULY 13
Scolari looking for
home comforts
L
uiz Felipe Scolari was virtually a unani-
mous choice when Brazil made the deci-
sion to replace Mano Menezes as coach
at the end of 2012. After all, Felipo was
the architect of Brazils fth and most
recent world title to date, secured at the 2002 Fifa
World Cup in Korea/Japan.
There is, however, another very good reason why
Scolari tted the bill as the man to take charge of
the host nation at the 2013 Confederations Cup
and the 2014 World Cup.
A winner on the biggest of
stages, he also knows all about
the pressure of being the home
coach in an international tour-
nament. His coaching career
began back in 1990, when he
steered Kuwait to the Gulf Cup
of Nations title on home soil.
Fourteen years on he was at
the helm of the Portugal side
that hosted Uefa Euro 2004,
where they restored their bond
with the nation on their way to
being runners-up to Greece.
He was very aware of the
fact that it had been many years since the Portu-
guese people felt any real anity with the national
team, and he made it his priority to get them all
behind us and to believe in us, midelder Maniche,
a member of that 2004 side, told Fifa.com.
Then goalkeeper Ricardo, whose place in the side
was questioned by some but who repaid his coachs
faith with his gloveless heroics in the penalty-shoot-
out defeat of England in the quarter-nals, recalled:
Scolari managed to harness all that extra energy
that was generated around the team. He was the
one who asked people to put ags in their windows
and to sing the national anthem as loud as they
could, inside and outside the stadiums. On our way
to the stadiums, wed be standing up on the bus just
to watch the huge crowds cheering us on.
A Seleo drew that kind of support when they
swept all teams before them to win the Confedera-
tion Cup. With a record ve world titles in the bank,
Brazil fans have grown accustomed to success, usu-
ally achieved in style. In an interview with Fifa.com
in April last year, Scolari spoke of the pressure Bra-
zil will be under: The pressure thats generated by
the media and the country as a whole can lead you
to take an approach you wouldnt normally pursue
on other occasions. (Fifa.com)

Looking for the
next PELE
BY TIM VICKERY
sportsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com
I
n the buildup to Germany 2006,
the Brazilian media speculated
that this would be the tourna-
ment where Ronaldinho proved
he was even better than Pele. Yet
history has shown that its a tag more
closely linked with failure than glory.
Ronaldinho had been the junior partner in
the 2002 World Cup, a wonderfully promis-
ing part of the supporting cast to Ronaldo
and Rivaldo. By 2006, he had established
himself as the outstanding player in the
global game, delighting fans everywhere
with the childlike joy of his performances
for Barcelona. Rivaldo was no longer in the
picture but Ronaldo was still around, Kaka
had emerged as a superstar, Adriano was an
imposing centre forward and such talents
as the Robinho and Juninho Pernumbucano
were in reserve.
Surrounded by such an embarrassment
of riches, what could possibly go wrong for
Ronaldinho? Answer: Everything. At the
end of the opening game, a laboured 1-0
win over Croatia, Pele dashed over to the
Brazilian journalists and said Ronaldinho had
been the worst player in the team. Brazil
were an immense disappointment and were
bundled out in the quarter-nals by Zinedine
Zidanes France. It was a pivotal moment in
Ronaldinhos career. He has never recaptured
that form and, despite a remarkably injury-
free career, he has never played in another
World Cup.
Comparisons with Pele now look laughable
even
sad. Zico
got closer; for
Brazil, for Fla-
mengo, briefly for
Udinese and in his sun-
set in Japan he produced
consistent excellence. But
the World Cup was cruel
to the man dubbed, in less
politically correct times, the
white Pele.
The latest next Pele, of course,
is Neymar, who, like the great man,
came through the youth ranks at Santos
and looks a little bit like the adolescent
Pele from the Sweden World Cup of 1958.
Neymar is 22, by which age Pele had lled
out to have the physique of a middleweight
boxer. For all his dazzling skill, Neymar will
never carry quite the same physical threat
as Pele, but he does have the chance of
achieving footballing immortality by car-
rying Brazil to victory on home soil.
But this shot at glory comes with plenty
of risks as the story of Zizinho, a kind of
prototype Pele, makes clear. The outstand-
ing player in Brazils 1950 side, the idol of
the young Pele was magnicent. European
journalists who covered that World Cup had
never seen anything like it. But everything
was overshadowed by the nal game, when
Uruguay hit back to beat the hosts 2-1. I
played for 19 years, wrote Zizinho on the
rst page of his autobiography. I won some
titles, and along with the other players of that
campaign, Im remembered as a loser.
How will Neymar be remembered? Up
there alongside Pele, or as another pretender
unable to climb to the top of the mountain?

1. PEL
Argu-
ments as
to the great-
est of all time
will rage on
forever. However,
in comparison with
his rivals for the hon-
our, we can surely say
without a doubt that Pel was
the most complete player that
football has ever seen.
He had the technical ability
to beat players one-on-one,
his eye for a pass has been
praised by all those he part-
nered, his prowess in the air
is legendary and there can, of
course, be no argument over
his ability to nish, given his
goal record.
Wizards in
yellow and blue
have often cast
a spell on fans
of the beautiful
game. Will the
Samba Nation
give us more this
time, with the
ball literally in
their court?
20. CARECA
Careca is a veteran of the
1986 and 1990 World Cups.
He was a national cham-
pion in both Brazil and Italy
in a career that took him
from 1978 through to the
late 1990s.
Having missed the 1982
World Cup through injury,
Carecas early career was
marked only by domestic suc-
cess.
19. HELENO DE FREI-
TAS
Heleno de Freitas is as fa-
mous in Brazil for his o-pitch
antics as he is for his perform-
ances on it. However, when it
comes to his on-pitch perform-
ance, there are few who could
claim to be his equal.
18. CLODOALDO
A World Cup winner in 1970,
Clodoaldo is widely regarded
as one of the greatest defen-
sive midelders ever to play
the game.
A Santos supporter, the de-
fensive midelder joined the
club in 1963, aged just 13, and
would remain with the Peixe
until 1980, playing on 510 oc-
casions for the historic Alvine-
gro outt.
17. JUNIOR
Two-footed, skillful, a bril-
liant long-passer of the ball
and a feared set-piece taker,
70-cap left-back Jnior was an
integral part of the Brazil side
for an entire generation in the
1980s.
16. DIDI
Another Botafogo icon,
central midelder Didi was a
double World Cup winner in
1958 and 1962, having also
played in the 1954 edition.
The Ethiopian prince, as
he was nicknamed by play-
wright Nelson Rodrigues,
was famed for his stamina,
composure and laid-back
demeanour in a career that
brought 62 international
caps.
15. TOSTAO
The 1970 World Cup win-
ner is perhaps the greatest
player in the history of Minas
Gerais giants Cruzeiro. He
made his Brazil debut in May
1966 and played in the World
Cup in England a month later.
14. LEONIDAS
Known as the Black Dia-
mond, Lenidas was one of
the most important Brazilian
football players of the early
20th century.
The forward, famed for his
use of the bicycle kick, was
one of the greatest Brazilian
goalscorers of his era and, but
for the Second World War,
would have surely played in
more than two World Cups.
13. REIZINHO DO
PARQUE
Reizinho do Parque (Lit-
tle King of the Parque So
Jorge) Rivellino rened his
skills by playing futsal as a
boy before making his name
at Corinthians. Famed for his
Elastico dribble, the 1970
World Cup-winning attacking
midelder and 74 and 78
veteran was a key member of
the Brazil side for a decade.
12. CARLOS ALBERTO
He became simply O
Capito for his leadership
of Brazil to 1970 World Cup
success despite having been
a shock omission four-years
earlier. The ying wing-back
wrote his name into football-
ing history when, in the nal,
with just minutes to go, he
scored what is considered by
many to be the greatest ever
World Cup goal.
11. NILTON SANTOS
Another iconic player to
emerge from Rio de Janeiros
famous Botafogo club, the
75-cap left full-back was a
two-time World Cup winner
(1958 and 1962). From 1950,
he was selected for four con-
secutive tournaments.
10. GERSON
Another of the victori-
ous 1970 World Cup squad,
Grson achieved global fame
as the creative hub of that il-
lustrious side.
The Golden left foot was
renowned for his ability to
pass the ball with incredible
accuracy. As a child, he had
rst learned his trade on the
beach, before becoming an
early convert to futsal.
9. RONALDINHO
The 2002 World Cup
winner is the rst player on
our list to enjoy his biggest
achievements at club level
outside of Brazil. It was, in-
stead, on the eastern coast of
Spain, at FC Barcelona, that
the Porto Alegre-born play-
maker would shine brightest.
For a period of time in the
early 2000s, he was the best
player on the planet.
8. FALCAO
A three-time Brasileiro
champion with Internacional,
Falco was a key member of
the Brazil 1982 World Cup
squad that thrilled a global
audience under manager Tel
Santana.
That side may not have
won the tournament, but
they captured the hearts
and minds of a generation of
football fans worldwide.
7. ROMARIO
He may be no easy cus-
tomer to deal with, but
there is no doubting
Romrios football
talent. His ve goals
at the 1994 World
Cup, where
he won the
Golden Ball,
were a major
factor in Bra-
zils fourth title.
6. JAIRZINHO
A No. 10 by trade, 1970
World Cup winner Jairzinho
is remembered primarily as a
right-winger for Brazil.
His position was never
quite dened. He began his
Botafogo career in 1959 as
a makeshift centre-forward,
moved to the right-wing, be-
fore eventually maturing into
his second-striker role.
At international level, it
was a similar story.
4. ZICO
Another of the revered
1982 generation, Zico was
making waves in Rio de Ja-
neiro with Flamengo from an
early age.
While Brazils memorable
challenge in 1982 ended in
disappointment, the central
playmaker scored four times
in his ve appearances and
was named in Fifa All-Star
Team of the Tournament.
3. RONALDO
Had it not been for injury,
Ronaldo would be even
higher on this list. At 21,
heading into France 98, he
had already scored over
200 career goals in four
countries, won the
1994 World Cup and
twice been
crowned Fifa
World Player
of the Year.
2. GARRINCHA
The greatest of the Bota-
fogo greats, Manuel Francisco
dos Santos joined the Carioca
club at 20 after he famously
nutmegged star defender
Nilton Santos during a train-
ing session. He was voted into
the Team of the Tournament
at the 1958 World Cup and
Player of the Tournament four
years later. Brazil, of course,
won both competitions.

NEYMARMANIA:
Brazils latest craze
BY JAMES YOUNG
sportsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com
W
hen the World Cup
hopes and dreams
of arguably the
worlds most suc-
cessful footballing
country rest on your skinny shoul-
ders, youre going to need all the
help you can get.
It is not known what great
works of literature Neymar chose
when packing his suitcases for
Barcelona, but he could have done
worse than to seek solace in a lit-
tle Shakespeare. Dank and drizzly
though it can sometimes be, San-
toss Vila Belmiro Stadium, our
heros erstwhile home, is a long
way from the gloomy battlements
of Hamlets Elsinore. Nevertheless,
there are more than a few paral-
lels between the life and times of
Brazils current idol and Shake-
speares classic paean to troubled
young manhood.
Still just 22, Neymar will not be
the rst young player to carry the
burden of great expectations into
a World Cup. But it is hard to re-
member quite when so much pres-
sure has been heaped upon one
so tender of foot. Brazils young
prince has the phantoms of ve
World Cup winning sides from
Didi to Garrincha to Pel to
Romrio to Ronaldo whispering
in his ear. Thats just the start.
Next month will see the rst
World Cup nals played on Brazil-
ian turf since the Maracanao in
1950, when 200,000 gaped in hor-
ror from the stands of the Marac-
an as outsiders Uruguay stunned
the hosts in the nal game. The
crowds will not be as enormous
this time round. But outside the
stadiums, a modest throng of
195 million people will hang on
Neymars every touch. Twelve
years without a Mundial title may
not seem much of a wait for most
countries, but for Brazilian fans it
feels longer than a lifetime.
Neymarmania
It is perhaps hard for those out-
side Brazil to imagine the extent
of Neymarmania. The Brazilian
sporting media had him in its
next-big-thing sights even before
he made his Santos debut as a
17-year-old in 2009. As the high-
light reel the electrifying drib-
bles, the sublime, Artful Dodger
style nishes (dinked, chipped,
stroked, lobbed, oated, but rarely
blasted), the impish taunts and
tricks lengthened, the spotlight
grew more intense.
Neymar has done his growing up
in public, through both the good
times and the bad. Nor can he be
accused of shirking the limelight
at one point last year he could
be seen in television commercials
for no fewer than 10 brands.
Overlooked by Dunga for the
The hopes of a
giant rest on the
skinny shoulders
of a 22-year-old
2010 World Cup, Neymar
made his international
debut shortly after Brazils
South African meltdown,
just when the Seleo was
culling its elder statesmen.
His peers, more or less,
good players all, none of
them knew (or yet know)
quite how to help the Santos
craque shoulder his heavy
mental load, even if they could
feel its presence.
The Seleo is too big for
Neymar to carry alone, his
teammate Dani Alves said re-
cently, we have to help him.
