Month: November 2014

One of Kenya’s most experienced DJs came under fire from Papa Dennis’ team after adamantly refusing to play Injili by the artiste. Pinye was of the opinion that despite the video being done by Godfather Productions  was not up to ‘The Beat’s ’standards.

Papa Dennis’ representatives in a rejoinder claimed that DJ Pinye was a stumbling block in the careers of Kenyan musicians. Needless to say ,this spat has caught the attention of the fans and some industry players, one of them DNG who had this to say:

Fellow artists, musicians and entertainers, I have just come across this article that has been heavily shared in the industry. People have ranted and said all sorts of things. Guys, DJ Pinye doesn’t run this industry nor does he make it or kill it. He is an entertainer (just like you) and plays what he likes or what he determines as quality. Kwa raha zake!

That said, he has NO obligation or moral duty to play your music. He is neither your promoter nor your publicist.The avenues for playing music are so many, that we don’t need to be here complaining about 1 show. I repeat, 1 show on 1 TV station!!!! How many music shows exist? How many TV stations exist? How many radio stations exist? Heck, if TV or Radio won’t touch you, bang your jams on Matatu TV, Youtube, etc!!! So many artists have made it without being played on The BEAT 254!!! Usilie machozi kama huonekani NTV Kenya. Focus on making your art irresistible, that way, wapende wasipende, utapepea!!!

 

Are you on Linkedin, google drive or microsoft office? Well, if not facebook is here to add competition to the three.

Facebook has revealed that it is intending to come up with a social media platform for workers to find each other, share information and communicate to each other on matters concerning business.

The site will look just like the facebook we are used to but will purposely be intended to help share ideas and information about business.

Users will be able to chat with fellow workers from across the globe, create pages and share whatever they want.

The site is ay in already in use at the Facebook offices and will be rolled out very soon.

The site is expected to give competition to the already existing sites like linkedin and google drive.

 

From the days of ‘Kati ya Man-U and Arsenali nio gani Kali?’ Kenyans have been die-hard fans of the English Premier league.

I don’t know much about football but I know that Manchester United is one of the most popular clubs around.
And Manchester United is feeling the love and sending some love back too. Check out this shout-out Man-U gave to its Kenyan and Nigerian fans after realizing that Wayne Rooney’s biggest fans come from these two African nations. Talking of Wayne Rooney, catch more of him on Sport pesa and win some money while at it.

 

 

 

The country is mourning the passing on of the charismatic, eloquent and humorous Gerald Otieno Kajwang, the Homabay County Senator after what was reported to be a heart attack.

And as everybody is grappling with this massive lose to the country fresh allegations are arising over what exactly killed the ‘Bado Mapambano’ singer.

These allegations have been made by controversial blogger Robert Alai who has claimed that Otieno Kajwang might have not died of heart attack as reported early by media and the CORD leader Raila Odinga.

Instead, Alai is saying that Kajwang bleeded excessively after his death, meaning that his blood clotting ability had been tampered with by some foreign substance in his body.

These are fresh allegations that are likely to turn the Otieno Kajwang demise debate after Kenyans had been made to believe that indeed Kajwang died of heart failure.

Alai has also banished news by powerful media houses that Kajwang died of heart failure. In his twitter handle, Kajwang has taken a swipe at KTN, Citizen TV and NTV by claiming that they were sold false information about the late Kajwang before even a post-mortem could be conducted.

This is what Alai tweeted:

Its a very cold and wet Thursday morning in the heartbeat of the nation. Just to update you with what’s happening in BBA Hotshots; the usual peace, quiet and composure that the older housemates used to enjoy has been tempered with as the new housemates have completely turned the house upside down, they are forcing altercation with older housemates wrecking havoc in the house. That aside, here are the hottest stories for you this morning:

I have ignored this coward for far too long, I have had to put up with his chauvinistic whims in the office on a daily basis, he has technically turned into a churn, twisting and churning lewd little chauvinistic  comments, calling me and our editor “Gorillas” because we decided to steer  clear of his whims. When a man has been pushed to the wall, well he is justified to respond, hitting below the belt notwithstanding.Here goes my 2 cents.

So are gorillas better than Kenyan men?

They could be, I’m not a gorilla Chweya , how would I even know? So I will steer clear like a good guy, ignore you so hard that you will doubt your existence .I’m not even going to waste my characters trying to engage you in a discourse which you seem to have no idea on.  Keep,running your diabolical dissertations Chweya, you never know, these Kenyan gorillas might change for the better. (that too, I shall stay clear of)They might become better with time, I hope your lecturer at that village university taught you a bit about “paradigm shift” I know it sound like Greek so let  me explain:-the world changes, the weak are eviscerated, the strong get to carry the day, it is always the classical classical case of  “survival of  the fittest”  that is where I bring in “paradigm shift” or the shift in consciousness,  unless Kenyan men change their mentality, they are going to be wiped out, probably to be replaced by the gorillas that Chweya religiously talks about.

So I shall leave you and the Editor to settle your scores, I believe he is not an Editor for nothing, he can fight his battles.

So why did I strip myself of all that makes me a man to support women? Why did I wear a close fitting sweet little body-con and looked like a retard on the streets? Why did I spend half of my Monday braving the scorching Nairobi sun, howling myself to death and making a fool of myself? Why did I put up with over 2000 Kenyan Men calling me gay among other unprintable epithets?  You have no Idea? Yes?

“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude”. Thomas Jefferson

I woke up on Monday with the right attitude Chweya, seems like you woke up from the other side of your bed, (where you saw gorrilas,and probably other primates)  I chose to act, as a Journalist and as a man, It was impossible for me to enjoy the comfort of my thoughts while in the city streets women suffered from the stupidity and sheer dare-devilry of my kind (read men).That is how I found myself in the streets running alongside Boniface Mwangi in a bid to force a “paradigm shift” upon what could pass as “gorillas”

Listen Chweya, it seems that no one taught you “fallacies”, I will, a fallacy is a mistaken belief, especially one based on unsound arguments, it is also a failure in reasoning which renders an argument invalid.

 

Chweya Really?

Do not generalize, While a certain clique of men are stripping women in Eastlands,(where Chweya lives) another breed of men are donning dresses in support of “my dress my choice”, Men are different the world over, while your shortsightedness probably shows you a scope of men from around your village or your Eastlands abode behaving like little devils while posing as testosterone charged perverts, Other men who live in respectable Estates (Insert Lavington,Kileleshwa,Runda and others here) are respecting women. Did you know that the largest chunk of mini-skirt wearing women hail from these posh suburbs?  Have you heard of stripping around these posh neighborhoods? No?

I will end my article here, but not before I tell you this “The worst specimen of men are to be found teeming the lonely streets of  Eastlands, where they languish in abject poverty, cheap liqueur and the thrift of loose living, they indulge in shameless cat-calling, rape and stripping guileless women. They, like I said above, are the last relics of a dying race (Chweya Joins them too) They shall be annihilated!

Chweya, get a life, read a book and repent your sins, there is hope for you, The good book says, “there is still hope for a tree that has been cut down..”  Even amongst your “gorilla” friends, there are exceptions.

Namaste!

 

 

Is Robert Alai preaching water and secretly drinking wine? His stand on skimpy dresses a few years ago will surprise you.

While Robert Alai is now busy countering #MyDressMyChoice with his own #NudityIsNotMyChoice which has been trending on twitter for the better part of this week, believe it or not, a few years ago, he was supporting revealing clothes.

Remember when the late Mutula Kilonzo was agitated by some schools’ decision to “dress girls like nuns”? That time Alai was supporting the idea for girls to dress in miniskirts, to prove this; someone did some digging and came up with a screenshot of what Alai posted on his twitter handle.

Isn’t it ironical that Alai is now opposing skimpy dressing? Or maybe people change their views over time? Whatever made Alai change his stand regarding women dressing, guess folks will be interested to know.

 

 

Once upon a time, not long ago, I wrote an article on Ghafla Kenya. And once upon a time, not long ago, my editor at Ghafla was on trying to hit me below the belt. Why? Because of the article I wrote that once upon a time, not long ago.

My article, While Kenyan Men Strip And Harass Ladies, This Is What A Gorilla Did To A Lady In Gabon, was entirely about the comparison and differences between Kenyan men and a gorilla that embraced what can be termed as humanity at the expense of ‘gorillaism’.

Irari Ngugi, my editor at Ghafla Kenya was not impressed by what I had said about Kenyan men, their behaviours and habits. Well, as promised early on, I am that type of guy who has never shielded off from making clarifications whenever I realise my colleagues, my readers, my haters or even my boss have missed what I can only term as a pregnant point.

With all due respect, Editor Irari seems to have missed this conversation by a whisker. And this has again forced me to re-write the simple natural facts that he and his not-so-happy grid of men are trying to ignore.

Irari, in his article https://www.ghafla.co.ke/news/tv/item/26655-i-know-a-couple-of-men-have-been-misbehaving-but-branding-kenyan-men-as-lesser-beings-to-gorillas-is-outright-wrong-chweya-no-mydressmychoice rubbishes my advice to Kenyan men on how they should treat these beautiful, rare and golden creatures that God had to send us into deep sleep so as we could not see how they are created as he endeavored in molding them.

Oblivious of the treasure they are made of, Kenyan men thrash them, mistreat them, disregard them, sleep on them, and subject them to all forms of discomfort. Well, this is what Irari does not want to hear.

If it was a response from a lady warning me to keep off Kenyan men, I would coil back into my cocoon, hire lawyer Katwa Kigen to tender my apologies, as I contemplate selling a piece of land back in the village to refund his services.

But here is a man, who has again and again, in one way or the other, probably, molested a woman, salivated at a woman’s cleavage, looked admiringly at those soft thighs as they vibrate in unison with the butt as she walks down Moi Avenue, telling me off because I am trying to protect our women from savages, predators to be precise.

Thing is we have made our women our prey. We prey on them when and as we want, how and where we want, without necessarily giving our actions a second thought.

Who is going to believe that what Irari is saying is true? And who is going to believe that Irari is not just feeling the pinch of my article and now he is hitting back?

This is why I say only a Kenyan woman can correct me on this. My fellow writer Tonny Ndung’u jumped to Irari’s bandwagon to belittle my article. Well, this is another man feeling the pressing applied below his belt. The grind is massive but guys let’s reason together for two minutes.

Don’t you think there is a big difference between a gorilla in Gabon that recognises a lady 23 years down the line and warmly embraces her, hugs her, cuddles her, fondles her to say the least? Don’t you think that gorilla deserves much credit than me and you?

What comes into your mind when you raise your hand to hit a woman? Or to strip a woman? Or to rape a woman? Or to abuse a woman? Or to write an article bashing a correction on men’s perception of women? Appalling!

Tonny Ndung’u was in a dress recently to show his solidarity with women. He called men all sorts of names in that dress. He showed his masculine butt, his masculine ‘cleavage’, his masculine thighs. All in the name of standing with women. He demonstrated too in the streets of Nairobi under the slogan #Mydressmychoice.

Tonny was purely an hypocrite. So is Editor Irari Ngugi who allowed Tonny to take to the streets, to accompany veteran Ghafla writer Sue Watiri and other women to demonstrate to be allowed to walk naked or semi naked; nude or semi nude.

Tonny in a dress

Tonny was a ‘nude nun with a big gun’ in the streets of Nairobi. Allowing Tonny to be what he was is hypocrisy. The same women you claimed to stand for and by are the same women you don’t want to be told about.

Well, just like peeing or pooping in public, harassing, disrespecting, molesting or raping a woman is so disgusting, unlawful and uncalled for. That is the bitter truth Irari, Tonny and other men don’t want to hear.

Here, they call themselves pure. Angels. Heavenly. If all of us claimed to be holy, staunch holy, who then is this that our ladies are complaining about? Or, is it that our ladies are complaining for no apparent reason? Are they seeking unnecessary attention? Is that what you mean?

All these and many more are some of the funny false facts that Irari and his entourage are trying to cling to. Fact is, our women are not a happy lot. And this is largely because of the manner in which Kenyan men are handling them.

We are less important than gorillas. That, take it or leave it. To the bank or to the shows.

For a while when my friend told me she would rather date a gorilla, I stepped back and thought, what is this that a gorilla has that makes this lady want to marry it? I had an answer right in my hands. It is because of people like Irari Ngugi and Tonny Ndungu.

People who don’t want to surrender to the truth. People who want to be lavished with praises at the expense of our beautiful women.

As I rest my case, there is a solution for our women. Unless these men change for the better, there are loving gorillas in the jungles of Gabon. Their weakness, tough, is that they don’t have money. After all we all love money.

 

We had run a poll earlier to find out which between t he Sura Yako remix and original was hotter. And the people have spoken.

Kenyans are of the opinion that the original is actually than The remix featuring Nigerian heartthrob Iyanya

We had announced earlier that Docta Eddy the legendary Gospel producer was branching out of Gospel and expanding into the contemporary world. Well, we can exclusively inform you that his label has already signed in some new artistes.

Docta Eddy’s Dreamland Music Entertainment Company is already known for churning out great tunes. From the times of ‘Kapungala’, ‘Kiriro,’ ‘Emmanueli’ and many award winning songs, this label has never disappointed. Under the management of Edward Omondi also known as Docta Eddy, the label has experienced tremendous growth branching out into video production among other businesses.

As a commitment to take the Kenyan music industry to the next level, Dreamland Music Entertainment has signed 3 artistes into its label with the first to be signed being Otile Brown.

Otile Brown was born and raised in the coastal city of Mombasa. At only 21 years, the artiste has mastered the art of song writing, plays the guitar, is a rapper, and does ragga with amazing vocals to crown it all. Many who have listened to him admit that his music is mature and he can easily be the ‘John Legend’ of Africa. He was discovered by Jalango, who later referred him to Docta Eddie.

Since then, they have been recording music and the first single titled Shujaa Wako (Your Hero) has just been released. The song is categorized as RnB with a feel of Bongo and a coastal touch. Produced by the award winning Docta Eddy, the music is written and performed by Otile Brown.

The acoustic version of the video has been released too and you can watch it here:

With Nigeria and Tanzania music dominating Kenyan airwaves, the move has been applauded by many industry players as healthy and is bound to upset the status quo of Kenyan music.

”We hope to see many artistes and recording labels follow suit. The time to record music and release without proper plan is long gone. If the Kenyan music is to dominate MTV, Trace, Channel O and other international stations, we must get our act together,” said Eric of One FM

Things have really changed since our parents were young.

Sex is more casual .Young people are now engaging in one night stands, Friends with benefits, clandestine sexual relationships and other forms of casual sex.

Our videographer recently sat down with Avril for an interview and they got to talking about casual sex inform of sex on the first date.

Avril was of the opinion that going all the way on the first date pretty much depends on the people in the date. She wouldn’t necessarily do it since it’s important to know someone before letting him bump uglies with you.

She believes that sex is a gift and it shouldn’t be dished out to every Tom, Dick and Harry. It’s a gift that should be given to that special man.

Since he joined the industry close to 2 decades ago, Jose Chameleone’s music has aired all over East Africa and has been met with much acclaim.

He is currently in Kenya where he is being hosted by the King of Kenyan Radio Mzazi Willy Tuva. In fact yester afternoon Mzazi went to receive him at the airport before he performed at Mzazi’s Wakilisha Show at Tribeka.

Fans of Jose came out in droves to watch his performance and his latest video ‘Miliano ’  which was dropping officially at Wakilisha

 

 

Dj Pinye recently declined to play Injili by Papa Dennis on hit show the Beat on Ntv despite it being on high rotation across Africa including the Beat on NTV Uganda.

We called up Papa Dennis to find out how he felt about DJ Pinyes’ move. Papa Dennis declined to comment on the ‘issue’ referring us to his management saying such matters are handled by his managers, Maliza Umaskini.
Speaking to Sadat Muhindi, the founder of Maliza Umaskini, he confirms that indeed DJ Pinye declined to play Papa Dennis’ viral Godfather-produced video, “Injili” which is currently on high rotation on internationally acclaimed channels like Trace Urban, Channel O, Afro Music and MTV Base.

Mr. Sadat says, “DJ Pinye can’t purport to speak for the people when he says that the video isn’t liked by the audience yet the same people are the ones who have watched the video to over 170,000 hits on YouTube”
“It’s so ironical of him to say that the song isn’t fit for “The Beat” yet NTV Uganda plays the video on “The Beat” in Uganda”

Injili playing on NTV Uganda

“If the video is bad quality then the next one that we’re about to release is worse” says Sadat
Sadat adds that “Pinye should support upcoming artistes since he’s been in the industry for long and if he says he supports upcoming artistes I wonder how. Papa’s kind of music is different and that’s why his music is being acknowledged across the continent and so it’s so ironical that one person is becoming a stumbling block to the development of the music industry.

 

If you thought the undressing of ‘skimpily’ dressed women was done, you are in for a rude shock.

The raging debate on stripping and shaming women in the streets for what some people think is scanty dressing is still very fresh and hot amongst us.

It is a debate that has seen people lock horns, debates and tempers flare both in the streets and in the legislature and demonstrations to counter and others to support the stripping of ‘skimpily’ dressed ladies held.

However, what might look as hilarious, humorous and shocking at the same time is this goat that was captured on camera pulling a woman’s skirt from behind, something that KOT say are animals trying to help instil sense into women.

To people like Robert Alai who support stripping, this will be another point of supporting their attacks while to others like Esther Passaris who are against, it might look like an unfortunate incident.

Here is the photo:

 

The things you never knew about Churchill are interesting, funny how it is his long time friend Papa Shirandula who spilt the beans.

Charles Bukeko or better known as Papa Shirandura went on a mission to air Churchill’s dirty linen in public. The actor stripped Churchill and exposed the secrets the he has long guarded preventing them from leaking to the media, the two are old time pals so they have some old secrets that haven’t been revealed by the media yet.

Long before Churchill was a household name in Kenyan comedy, he used to stay somewhere in Eastlands alongside Papa, there is the only place they could afford, they were still hustling trying to make ends meet. Papa discloses how Churchill used to call himself Zidane, after the legendary French footballer. Churchill had no swag, he used to wear a long number 10 jersey with Zidane’s name at the back. Just wondering which lady in Nairobi could date him then.

Papa further reveals Churchill used to beg to do radio announcement on KBC, then, Jack Sylvester Oyoo was Kenya’s finest radio presenter, Churchill was given the opportunity to do radio announcement (probably obituary announcement) but he would come back bragging to the like of Papa how he was commentating on football matches.

Churchill was one given a role to play an old man in a cast dubbed School out, the irony is that Churchill was the youngest among all the actors yet he was made to play a very old man whose role was only to go to the toilet time and again. Papa laughs hysterically when he remembers how Churchill used to play his role. “He used to wipe my shoes in the cast My Husband Has Gone Mad Again” Papa narrates.

As if that is not enough, Papa reveals he and Churchill used wait for a 1 PM matatu to town so that they could pay 10 bob, to make matters worse, they used to stand all the way to town. “I really respect what God has done to me and him and any other person, all I say God allow me to respect the journey and not even the destination” uttered Papa has he reflected on how far they have come with Churchill.

Unconfirmed reports reaching Ghafla Kenya is that the late Senator Otieno Kajwang’s father, Ajwang Nyakwamba, is admitted in Kisumu hospital following a heart attack after learning of the sudden death of his son Otieno Kajwang.

Revealing the news on her twitter account, nominated senator Naisula Lesuuda says that Mzee Nyakwamba suffered a heart attack after he was informed that his son, Homabay Senator Otieno Kajwang had passed away.

Senator Kajwang suffered a heart attack himself and succumbed to it last night, leaving the whole nation in shock as he was spotted yesterday in parliament buildings chatting with friends.

Mzee Nyakwamba is currently recuperating in Kisumu Hospital where he was admitted.

This is what Senator Naisula Lesuuda tweeted:

“OTIENO Kajwang’s father Ajwang Nyakwamba suffers heart attack on learning of his death; now admitted to Kisumu hospital. – May he get well..”

Senator Kajwang will be remembered for his famous slogan Bado Mapambano which he passionately sang.

He will be remembered for serving as MP, minister and until his demise, as Homabay County senator.

It will be hosted by former Big Brother Africa Season 7 Kenyan representative Chege Malonza.

It is specifically targeted at DStv Premium, Compact and Compact Plus subscribers.                   

 

The phrase ‘accept and move on’ gained fame during the 2013 disputed general elections. It was a phrase that CORD supporters were told now and again after CORD leader Raila Odinga lost in the Presidential elctions to the incumbent president, Uhuru Kenyatta.

Nobody knew this same phrase could be the very last words Homabay county Senator Otieno Kajwang could utter on social media before completing his adventurous journey on earth.

Otieno Kajwang was referring to the phrase that was synonymous with CORD then, after fresh allegations surfaced that IEBC was bribed to rig the disputed 2013 elections.

However, his final words on social media could also mean that indeed Kajwang had accepted what life had offered him and now he was ready to move on; on to another land, away from this world. And indeed on Kajwang moved.

This was his very last tweet:

“We said it then. Was covered in local dailies but emotions carried the day. Remember the phrase ‘accept and move on’ #Chickengate”

 

It’s about that time of the year when we bring you the best and worst lists of 2014.

We kick off the top ten lists with the Cutest couples of 2014.The envy-inducing ones and those that have stood the test of time in an industry that is not very friendly to relationships.

The sad news of Homabay County Senator Otieno Kajwang’s demise has been met with mixed reactions, considering the fact that his death was so untimely.

Those who spent time with him yesterday are the most shocked because the senator looked so healthy until his death. Betty Kyallo of KTN was particularly surprised by Kajwang’s death considering that she saw him yesterday evening at the parliament buildings.

President Uhuru Kenyatta is the latest high profile government official to send his condolences and shock at the loss of the eloquent, humorous and hilarious senator.

His tribute to Kajwang is one so emotional and this is why Ghafla Kenya has opted to share it with you.

In his facebook account, President Uhuru had this to say:

“It is with utter shock and deep sorrow that I have learnt of the sudden death of Senator Gerald Otieno Kajwang.

Senator Kajwang’s death is not only a big blow to his family but also to the people of Homa Bay County and the whole country which he served with commitment and dedication first as a Member of Parliament, a Minister and a senator.

I will always remember Senator Kajwang as an eloquent debater, a patriot and a nationalist.

Indeed, it is hard to comprehend how the cruel hand of death has so suddenly snatched Senator Kajwang from our midst. He was an energetic, jovial and an extremely pleasant person to deal with.

The death of Senator Kajwang reminds us of how fickle human life can be. It is, therefore, difficult for anyone of us to find the right words with which to express ourselves at such a sad time.

In this difficult time of mourning, I convey my deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to Senator Kajwang’s family, relatives, friends and the people of Homa Bay who he served diligently. I pray the Almighty God gives you all the strength and courage to bear the tragic loss.”

The self-titled King Wa Rap Collo has been missing in action for a while now .

Many have wondered what one Colins Majale has been up to but today we got to know what he had been up to.The king of rap is back and with a new song on tow called COLLO – COLLO (What’s that boy’s name?)

Collo  never fails to release an amazing song, and I have a feeling that this might be his fan’s  new favorite.

Am sorry for staying with the topic. But how couldn’t I?? The clamor for Women’s rights is a perpetual struggle that will NOT end today. Or tomorrow. Infact,In my very-enlightened opinion,It will NEVER end! Year after Year,Women will sadly be subjected to disgusting cases of sexual violence and savagery. By Men….SAD.

Miniskirt. A clothing that has always been donned by our women for ages now. And it has all been good…Until last week…when,out of the blue, a pack of savage miscreants decided to DECIDE for Women what is acceptable and what is NOT. The same gang of reprobates decided to take the law into their faecal hands and sexually violated and stripped random women at Bus stops and streets and alleys. Unfazed by the protests and recording cameras. What a bunch of scoundrels!

According to Men,a very huge percentage of them,by the way,Women should EITHER dress ‘decently’ or risk being stripped and publicly mortified. Kenyan Men are a pretentious lot….A lot that decides for itself what is right and what is wrong. A lot that quotes the Holy Bible when it suits them. A lot that invokes God’s Name when its convenient for them…A lot that crawls back to their poorly-understood ‘African Cultures’ when it bets suits them.

And according to the ever-chauvinistic Kenyan Men,THEY ARE SOCIETY and SOCIETY is them! And Women have to abide by “Society” (READ,Men) failure to which,they will face the full,unbridled wrath of these pack of soulless rascals!

You should see them talking…Or quoting the Bible…Or African Cultures..Or God..All self-righteous and crap! Yet they are the MOST shameless and arrant sinners,criminals and law-breakers ever seen…

Anyway,If KENYAN WOMEN have to STOP wearing short skirts and dresses and whatnot…In the name of decency and Morality and African Cultures and God and The Bible,Well,Men have quite a list of Anti-social,Anti-God and Anti-Scriptural things they need to STOP TOO!

HERE’S THE LIST….

1. STOP RAPING ANIMALS! Kenyan Men have made dubious headlines for seeking sexual favors from the worst of quarters-Animals! What a shame! The same Men shouting loudest about God and The Bible and African Cultures are the same Men taking Rats,Goats,Pigs,Donkeys,Chicken and Cats to bed! What’s worse?? A lady in a miniskirt or a Man ‘in’ an Animal?? Gross.

2. STOP ABDICATING FAMILY RESPONSIBILITIES! Kenyan men are famous for this! A shameless bunch of classless Men who sleep all day and drink cheap liquor all night! And yet they have children and wives to take care of! How African is it to abscond Family Responsibilities and spend all the little You earn in beer dens?? Chang’aa dens?? Leaving all the responsibilities to the Woman?? Including feeding the Family?? And educating the kids?? How Godly is that,Kenyan Men?? How Moral is that??!

3. STOP MAKING A FOOL OF YOURSELVES WHENEVER YOU ARE DRUNK! After imbibing on the cheapest liquor in the cheapest liquor hole in the cheapest part of the cheap town they cheaply live in,these Men will stagger their way out…singing detestable songs and sleeping in alleys and trenches and by the roadside…Drunk as hell! And publicly exposing their shabby manhoods through their poorly-zipped up soggy pants. Stumbling home and falling over themselves in a dazed drunken stupor infront of their OWN children an other Young kids…How African is that?? Eeeeh?? How decent is that??

4. STOP BEATING YOUR WIVES! Without caring whether the children are around or not,Kenyan Men will beat up their wives senseless! Right infront of their Young,impressionable children! And then beat up the Children too! And,in the worst case scenario,kill the whole family then commit suicide! We have seen this in the News way too many times! Physical violence against Wives…Everyday…Everywhere…STOP IT,You Pretenders!Not unless You can quote a Bible Verse that says,’Ye Men of Honour,Beat Up Thy Wives! Break Her Bones Right Infront Of The Children! For I,The Lord,Hath Commanded Thee!’

5. STOP PROMISCUITY! The same Men running around this City and other Kenyan Cities screaming “God” and “Morals’ and “The Bible” are the same Men who will spend endless weekends with dirty prostitutes in dinghy lodgings across town! Yet they are married! For Years! What moral authority do You have to condemn Miniskirts when all You do is sleep with 36 different dirty whores per month…With no condom and no stamina and no shame! Morals,My Ass!

6. STOP DENYING YOUR CHILDREN! Made a Woman pregnant?? Be a Man and own up to the pregnancy,Dumbass! The same clique of self-righteous Men screaming loudest t about ‘African Morals’ blah blah blah are the snae rats who will waste NO time in denouncing their Baby Mamas and running away from their created pregnancies! Leaving the hapless girl to carry the Baby alone,give birth alone and raise the baby alone! Cheap shameless Deadbeat malefactors! How African is denying a pregnancy?? How Moral is that?? How???!

7. STOP SAGGING THOSE PANTS. You will see them all across town…sagging their heavy pants,laden with an old,empty wallet. Exposing a pair of the most-miserable pair of butts! Covered under an equally-miserable piece of faded blue underwear! How Biblical is sagging Your pants?? And walking all across TRM,Galleria,Westgate or Greenspan Mall with Your cheap black ass hanging outside?? How African is that?? Who undresses You for sagging?? Anyone!!??

8. STOP RAPING YOUR OWN DAUGHTERS! AND NIECES! You will see them very vocally shouting “This Is Unafrican’! “This Is Ungodly!” and yet they will creep back into their dark homes in the dark hours of the night to RAPE their own seed! Their own daughters! Their own relatives! Pre-teenage daughters of their own sisters and brothers! Shameful! How Moral is that?? Who ever charges them in Court?? Sadly,NOBODY. They always walk away scot-free! After such a heinous act! African Culture?? Puh-leeeeeeeezee!

9. STOP GOOGLING HOMOSEXUAL PORNOGRAPHY! According to Google,Yes,The All-Reliable Friend,the Most serched item on the internet in Kenya (Via Google,Ofcourse ) is “GAY PORN’! Pooh! Makes Me wanna throw up! Yes,Believe it or not,Kenyans are the leading country in Africa as far as searching for Homosexual Pornographic videos and photos on the internet is concerned. And as we all know,Who consumes pornography more?? Men or Women?? Men,Ofcourse! And Kenyan Men are soooooooo shameless and disgusting! They are Googling “Gay Porn”. Whoa! Tell Me again how You still have the moral authority to comment on Miniskirts! Mr. Righteous Wanking Guy!

10. STOP STAYING WITH YOUR PARENTS! And get jobs! The number of grown Men still staying with their parents…Eating and drinking and spending their own parents’ money is alarming! In true African Societies,African Men were considered Adults soon as they entered puberty! And that meant that they could go out there,find things to do,protect the homesteads,bring food home and build homes-Their OWN homes! But today the case is different! Millions of grown Men still living under their mother’s old thighs! Eating their Mother’s food..Spending their Mother’s little money. And sleeping around their own old mothers! Move out,Old Fool! You’re 32 already! Get a life! Get a home! Get a Job! Get a Wife! And Be a Man! You are meant to be out there hassling FOR Your old mother! Like all true African Cultures did! Grown Ass Teenage Boy!

If Women have to dress “Decently’ for the sake of The Society and African Cultures and God and The Bible…Well,Men have a lot more work to do! Alot! A Miniskirt should be the last of their worries! Cheap Pretenders!

 

Today Kenyans woke up to the news that the King of Mapambano,the ever-smiling Otieno Kajwang had passed away.

It is said that the senator had passed away following a heart attack that proved fatal.

Mike Sonko has decided to put aside [political differences and mourn Kajwang :

Homabay County Senator Hon. Otieno G. Kajwang passed on moments ago after a cardiac attack.

My appeal to all leaders and Kenyans let us put our political differences aside and pray for the family and the people of Homa bay during this trying moment. May God give them strength and courage to get through it.

May the almighty God rest his soul in eternal peace. GOD BE WITH YOU COMRADE TILL WE MEET AGAIN.

Fruitful day everyone

Nominated MP Isaac Mwaura was mercilessly attacked by a controversial blogger for expressing his opinion.

The last time I checked, everyone was still entitled to an opinion but it seems honorable Isaac Mwaura is not guaranteed one, he tried to express his view regarding #MyDressMyChoice and was ruthlessly attacked.

Controversial blogger Dikembe Disembe unleashed his wrath on Mwaura attacking his skin pigmentation in particular; Mwaura is pro #NudityIsNotMyChoice and his stand on the same is the one that landed him in trouble. “So Isaack Mwaura supports the public stripping of women because of men constructed ”indecency codes”. Well, one day someone will support the lynching of Albinos. He forgets he has no skin pigment. smh!” Dikembe wrote on his Facebook page.

The post has ignited a fierce debate among Facebook users as some are strongly opposed to Dikembe’s comment terming it discriminatory while others supporting him. Down are some of the comments:

Mwafrica M Jeuri: Hapo Dikembe you did not have to say that. You have hit Mwaura, and albinos generally,below the belt. That comparison is unfair, and stale. They did not wish to be born that way. Men may decide to stop stripping women. Women on the other hand may decide to start dressing decently. But albinos can do nothing to change their skin colour.

Jack Aliwa: That comparison is not only stupid………….? Aah…..

Kipkemoi Lang’at: Wow! We wont Mpesa you anymore, I hope U r trying to make some millions through sympathizers. Let me hope Mwaura wil take actions.

Jacinta A Omondi: Why r pple mad at DD.Amesema ukweli.Kenyans r just allergic to truth.Fact is it could happen and its actually happening. Men also need to b careful lest ur fellow men start supporting forced circumcision and public humiliation of their now partners in crime.

Kevin Munene auch dikembe u stupid u knw thats too low thot u are way above that bt do i say

Joseph Kagunda Mwangi: DD you ought to rethink b4 posting some posts. how do you think we with albinism feel after such a post. you may have a point in the matter concerning the stripping issue but you could have used another example not the skin pigment.

Ben: Tekee Dikembe Disembe wea as the majority ave thea way the minority should av thea say,i dont see y we ave to condem him for speaking his mind,he spoke on behalf of the many men out thea who share the same opinion with him

Muya Wa Voi: I admire the way you turn situations to your advantage mainly based on ethnicity. But when you misjudge and mock God’s intelligence in his creation endeavour you dangerously cross the line. Albinism isnt a choice. Pigment isnt a trade off item. If mwaura or any other albino reads your article and cries questioning God for the disadvantage you may not go to your grave before youexperience such pain.God is never mocked, my friend. Pls confine your sentiments to what you are good at-kikuyu bashing.

Paul Opuko: with the level of education you have,I think you are a disaster in the CORD PR strategy

Millans Thambo Sisulu: dikembe u couldnt stoop this low honestly,he didnt support bt it was his opinion,too harsh my bro,wat did u post 4 alai robert coz they r sailing on tha same boat with mwaura

Peter Agoro: I dont expect this from DD.Let albinos be,you are not perfect either.It’s wrong of you to attack anybodody based on his/her disability.I hate seeing intellects stooping this low.

Edwin Munanga Muhuyi Ro Kohadha RIP.He was reckless but not more than u.be caful with your words my brother.i warned him jst like hav done now na hakusikia

Daniel Wambua: DD on this one HAUNA HAKILI na kama uko nayo ni ya kuku.

Maritim Arap Murgor: DD here i guess you wrote when your brain was full of shit.

Mash Okello:DD you have gone to far! The fact that you are a blogger does not give you any right to question Gods work of Creation. Remember Isaac Mwaura was just created like you, no one created himself.

Deek Hurtz its probably antics such as these from cord that causes divine intervention such as the unfortunate death of kajwang’Joseph Lister Nyaringo: I thought this guy Dikembe is rational… my RESPECT FOR U IS GONE. YOU CAN’T SPEW ANYTHING AND EXPECT to be RESPECTED.

Winny Shikali Salano: You call yourself learned??????Who told you Albinos got no Skin Pigment????I bet GENETICS sleaped on you…They only lacks MELANIN due to GENETIC DISORDER….And you are forgetting albinism is a disability????Like seriously?????

Joseph Muriithi: D D is like spent catridge,u need to be fucked.idiot

Joseph Lister Nyaringo Is this the guy who was arrested and we were all crying thinking that he has something between his ears? Nyasaeone….a big idiot. These are the fools ODM needs to keep at bay completely. Mheshimiwa Mwaura M Isaac is a comrade, a patriot. He speaks independently and I personally respects him. Never met him but I admire his thinking and hardwork.

Newton Wanjala: D D is behaving like an idol jobless mouthpiece. Spends all the time on face book trying to impress Raila Odinga. Someone in Kenya sold a cow to take another cow to Moi University….clearly he lost both cows.

Langstone Mutuku I never imagined u can post such a senseless opinion. just because he differs with u,u go even as far as discriminating him on the basis of his skin!!! thats too much mate. Remember Isaac is one of the most loyal members of ODM. i wish u can withdraw this post

Duncan Malusha: Very unfortunate post.Hon Mwaura has a right to hold an opinion different from yours.How do you compare nudity with Albinism?!! #NudityisNotmyChoice na tuko wengi

Augustus Ferguson: Now see you have exposed your level of thinking? Son u r so stupid beyond description. you mean you cannot differentiate btn disability and moral indecency? poor young graduate u r thick headed. shame on you.

Augustus Ferguson: you get arrested and your family could not afford to pay the 500000.wellwishers had to intervene to save your poor family. u r here today abusing Albinos. are you God. did they choose to be the way they are? …why think with your ass instead of Brain brother?

Gideon Ndambuki: hon.mwaura should b the 1st person to condemn descrimination of any kind. infact he was nominated for that purpose. suppotng strippng women is forgetng his mandate

Mutie Vickie: This is very irrespossible of you DD. If I were you I would apologise asap.

Bob Njagi: Very true……leo ni mimi na kesho ni wewe……wew have to speak out against all forms of opression whether directed to us or others.

Nyar Omollo: Min Tian He is celebrating women being strippd naked na anasahau he is walkng million

Ludovick Ogude: VI DD AM YOUR BIG FOLLOWER, BUT ON THIS, YOU ARE WRONG BROTHER.

Fred Båÿö: Gideon Ndambuki and Dikembe Disembe spot on. He should be the first one to stand up against any form of discrimination!

Stephen Biko: do unto others what u’d like to be done unto you DD ua VERY RIGHT! no apologies needed!

Joel Ogwe i totaly agree

 

 

 

 

Kanyari has been a hot topic for a while now. This is because he hoodwinked his easy to fleece followers into thinking he had the gift of performing miracles.

He may have not been bestowed with the gift of performing miracles but he had a ‘gift’ alright, the ‘gift’ of tricking his followers and swindling them off their money. This was by asking them to ‘plant a seed ‘inform of money in exchange for a miracle.

Since he was not a miracle worker he used science and some pretty convincing actors to make the miracles happen.
Part of his ‘master miracle plan’ was by the use Of Potassium Permanganate which turned red when it came into contact with water. This trick was used to show his followers that ‘bad blood’ and ‘witchcraft’ had been drawn from their bodies. Using Potassium permanganate was just a page in his book of many tricks.

As it turns out, before he discovered that performing miracles and masquerading as a miracle healer and prophet would mint money, Kanyari was a singer. And he was actually good at it.

Here is Kanyari two years ago:

So which is the biggest gospel tune right now? I’m thinking Tam Tam. And which are the biggest gospel artists right now? Size 8 and Willy Paul of course; this two are simply unstoppable.

Get to witness the duo perform their captivating song this coming Saturday at the Utalii Sports Ground absolutely free all courtesy of Property Reality Company (PRC). Willy Paul with his boyish swag and size 8 with her vehemence (Hizo mateke) then you’re guaranteed a good time.

And guess what? You can buy land in the process at much discounted prices. PRC the biggest land enterprise in the country will be issuing title deeds in style promising a day full of fun activities for the whole family. Apart from the incredible musical fusions, there will also be bouncing castles, face painting and much education on land. Trust me with schools closed, that is exactly what you need.

Seem worthwhile? See you there or rather at Kenya Cinema at 9AM as there will be free transport to the location. I guess it’s a PRC thing to do it big.
