147 is just not a typical number in the Kenyan context, it’s the day 147 lives were felled by the cold hand of despicable Al-shabaab insurgents.

The mastermind of this atrocious attack was none other than Mohammed Kuno aka Gamadhere a Madarasa teacher who worked under the name of Sheikh Mahamad Afte before joining the Al-Shabaab Terror Group.

In their latest investigative piece, ‘Children of a Lesser God’ NTV delves deeper into the heartrending aftermath of the Garissa attack and where Mohammed lived probably planning the evil attack.

The Investigative piece is set to air this Sunday 3rd of May, here is the preview:

Is Larry Madowo taking us for a ride again? Well, this is just what bloggers do, write juicy gossips with irresistible click baits.

You all know Larry picked a war with bloggers for writing ‘non-stories’. But here we are again, writing ‘non-stories’ as we always do.

Yesterday, the internet was awash with insults from bloggers and their followers all of which were directed to the impudent NTV news anchor.

After all the trolling, Larry surely needed a shoulder to lean on. Teacher Wanjiku came in handy, she made the NTV anchor wear a fake smile.

Oh! Or was it another trap by Larry meant to make bloggers blast into another unnecessary delirium?

 

 

Yesterday, K24 journalists, Purity Mwambia and Franklin Wambugu (Managing editor, Swahili) were arrested .

They were accused of bribing their way into GSU headquarters in Ruaraka with an improvised explosive device (IED).

This was during filming of scenes for Purity’s investigative piece, ‘Bweta La Uhalifu’ which had been anticipated by many Kenyans after snippets of the piece went up on you tube. The trailer has since been pulled down.

For those who missed it, here are pictures from the trailer:

Yes, Risper Faith was at QFM only that this time round she didn’t raised eyebrows, she kept her ratchetness at bay.

What is Risper up to with her publicized trips to radio stations? All over sudden she has woken up from her slumber to run after limelight.

Maybe she is on a mission of cleansing her name, probably she wants people to dissociated her from her dirty old past. I mean Risper claims she saw the light so there is no harm telling people she has turned over a new life!

Just last week, Risper and her colleague, Judy Anyongo, gave DNG a hard time when they visited 1 FM and flaunted their thick fat ass.

The born-again socialite visited QFM’s offices this morning for a chit chat with Lulu Hassan’s husband, Rashid Abdalla.

Unlike her earlier visit to 1 FM , Risper behaved herself, she was this modest lady who only posed with a microphone just like reporters do, nothing for Team Mafisi this time round.

 

 

 

Don’t be fooled by Michelle Morgan’s eye-popping beauty, what she does demystify the common preconceived notion pretty ladies are fragile.

Talk of ladies excelling in male-dominated spheres, then Michelle Morgan’s name should be topping that list.

Apart from Michelle, I think Janet Mbugua is the only other hot news anchor that doesn’t mind compromising her beauty for masculine-oriented pleasures.

Back to Michelle, the eye-candy has a fetish for riding motorcycles. Puzey STX 200 is the type of bike she likes riding.

That’s a very big bike for a lady to be riding, but it’s Michelle’s favorite toy for playing with. Bet most men can’t even risk riding that bike!

Michelle should hang out with Boniface Mwangi sometime, he too is a motorcycle enthusiast. See her photos below:

 

Joey Muthengi currently hosts Sugar and Spice on Ebru TV.

But this is not her first stint on TV having started out hosting Can You Dance? and the 6th edition of Tusker Project Fame. She has also worked on Capital F.M’s Hits not Homework, having taken over from Eve D Souza.

Away From her professional life, Joey is known for her beauty, we could say she hit the gene jackpot. And as it turns out, looks do run in the family. Meet the Muthengi sisters:

It’s hard to believe that Nancy Wanjiku popularly referred to as Shix Kapienga or Tasha just turned 27.

Shix who is an actress, radio presenter and TV host looked especially young in this Scout’s uniform that she wore in a recent Instagram picture.
She is the true definition of the urban adage ‘black don’t crack’

Since the announcement by State House that US president Barack Obama would be visit Kenya come June, a lot has been going on secretly in preparations for the most powerful man’s visit.

Reports indicate that among the things the US government has done to ensure Kenya is safe for Obama include flying in more than 200 secret service officials.

The officials have already arrived in the country and are working closely with the Kenyan government to beef up security ahead of the visit.

While some are in Nairobi, others have been flown to Kisumu where Obama is expected to make a stop because it is his father’s place of birth and his grandmother, Sarah Obama, lives there.

It is also reported that armoured cars have already been flown into the country.

These are the cars the US president and his entourage will use as they tour Kenya. The cars are believed to be parked at the UN headquarters in Gigil, Nairobi.

UN secretary of state John Kerry is expected in the country next week ahead of the Obama visit and it is believed he is ironing out everything to make sure the visit is successful.

Obama’s visit means that he will become the first US sitting president to set foot in Kenya.

I talked to Nickson Rwigi yesterday after learning of his fortune. You see, I grew up knowing him , we sort of come from the same village and practically grew up together. We pretty much chased chicken and tied strings to dung beetles and had a good laugh at it. But as I got lost in copies of Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew files and Mark Twain, Nickson took a different path, he shocked the village with his little inventions, at 13, he had fashioned a little contraption from an old perfume bottle that he filled with water and placed next to the hearth, It would keep a fire going for hours, though it nearly blew up their little Kitchen, Nickson had  Identified as a master innovator, a Da Vinci protege.

 Allow me to tell you the tale of Nickson, the guy that has been chosen to attend an IT conference in Switzerland along the worlds  que est que- the who is who, I’m talking the Bill Gates kind of “who is who”  Isn’t that an achievement for a young man of 25? 

Nickson never had the privilege of growing in a well-to-do family, he has known penury and strife but the hunger to make something out of his situation propelled him to be  the wizard that he is today. 

Nickson grew up penury,being the first born, He endured all the stresses thet first borns can relate to (I’m no first born, I wouldn’t know) He attended Utumishi Boys Academy and broke the record of being the first form one to be suspended from school after only two weeks. (Not quite the guru here)- The reason for the suspension was that it was alleged that he had stolen his computer teacher’s window XP CD. Never mind that he became the entertainment prefect years later. 

After Utumishi, Nickson went to Mr Kenya univesity where he majored in IT, for him, It was as easy as eating Okro soup,he had assembled his first computer in class six, though the computer had no Os and didn’t work, Nickson had learnt the art. He later joined the employ of Dataguard Distributors as a Systems Engineer, but resigned two years later to start his own IT Company. 

He reckons: “I worked close to 2 years with Dataguard, I resigned with nothing and opted to venture into IT business, I started my small company Cyber Dynamics, dealt with IT supplies and support. I was the “info”, “sales”, “Accounts” … etc. I am happy the company is 2 years old. My capital at startup was 40K. I dint have an office, and that was a challenge convincing my clients, that it wasn’t a briefcase company, which in real sense was.” 

 

“Time flew by, business grew and Cybercom Global was born, a limited company dealing with IT solutions. It hasn’t been easy to keep up with the trend, but having a positive mindset and the will to keep on keeping on has greatly impacted a lot in the business and also in my life. Being an icon and a leader at CyberCom, I have really learnt a lot. Discipline, hardwork and determinatfion has played a huge role in the growth of the 2 companies. We are still growing and soon will be venturing into outside market of East African. Our mission is to bring technology close to east Africa.

“I am honored to have to represent Kenya at the Switzerland, I am  still in disbelief, I have dreams but, like most of you, I never thought mine would dawn like this, I hope to have the ability to give back to the society in kind, be a force to reckon with and leave a legacy behind. Nickson Concludes. but not before I catch a few quotes on a plaque in his office. 

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time, the mind is everything, what you think, you become”.

It was over the weekend when KTN once again shook the nation to the core with yet another gut-wrenching expose that highlighted how villagers in Mombasa were being killed through lead poisoning by a metal refinery industry Metal Refinery EPZ.

The country was angered by the fact that the authorities ignored every effort made to have the industry shut down because of the implications it was having on the Owino Uhuru village in Mikindani, Mombasa.

And among those implicated in the expose and believed to be among the owners of the killer industry is Nyali MP Awiti Bolo who was adversely mentioned in the expose.

The MP has now come out with three buses full of supporters to castigate the expose, terming it a lie aimed at tainting his otherwise clean name.

According to Namu who was part of the team that exposed the rot, the MP, as expected, has started playing politics into a human interest issue which should be dealt with immediately.

Namu says:

 

 

I had vowed to not dignify Larry Madowo with a response to his fang-baring attack on the Blogging industry-and bloggers-yesterday but f*ck it; I couldn’t suppress the urge to get some things off my chest. I felt I needed to second my colleague Chweya who penned this yesterday:MADOWO

Larry Madowo besides hosting TV and trotting the globe to take selfies writes some ka-column in the Daily Nation to rant about stuff we already ranted about a week ago.

And, because no one feels sweeter than King Larry, he takes time to, very occasionally, throw jabs all over the place…and, sometimes, the jabs are anything but savory.

Yesterday Larry threw a couple punches at bloggers and, in the heat of the moment, got so carried away that he ultimately reduced us to some piece of trash-spewers, garbage and utter rubbish.

Ouch.

Larry glorified the mainstream media industry and severely trashed the Blogging industry starting with yours truly! But was it really justified? First of all the hullabaloo emanated from a post he shared on his facebook page which if you take time to check, it is verified. Last time I checked, a verified page on facebook goes ahead to show that it is authentic and the information that’s being dispersed from it is also equally authentic.

Now for Larry, a renowned Journalist to use the same platform to carry out a social experiment, that’s outright unprofessional. Not only bloggers but also the greater masses rely on social media pages for information as gone are the days people had to call press conferences to churn out information to the public. Even the government uses its social media pages to share information and sensitive information for that matter. How then can you go ahead to blame us for picking up what you posted? That is a definitely a credible source if you ask me.

Secondly, these jabs are coming from the same man who, after hosting Hon. Alfred Keter and Hon. Sonia Birdi, did such a tremendously horrible job interviewing them they ended up looking better than him…Never mind they had, earlier that day, invaded a weighbridge to harass a bunch of lowly officials.

Larry, aided by his tempestuous attitude and loquacious mouth, bungled up the interview so much, we ended up feeling pity for the Honorable criminals he was hosting.

Lord knows what a historically horrible job he’d have done were he the one tasked with handling that epic Bruce Jenner interview.

But, really for every meticulous Diane Sawyer there will be a shoddy Larry Madowo.

This man attacking Ghafla-and bloggers at large-is the same man who writes for a newspaper that SHAMELESSLY reported that Moi had met Uhuru and Ruto secretly when, infact, NOTHING like that happened.

This blog-loathing scribe is the same man who writes for a newspaper that, when Uhuru visited Kisumu a week ago, came up with the headline “Uhuru and Raila Share The Stage In Kisumu”. Just to sell newspaper copies. Click bait galore is how I see it and I bet you’re just struggling to keep up. And if I might remind you, your media house had Zuqka before Ghafla entered the game taking you out of business. The same media house went ahead to start Nairobi News which was entirely dependent on creating the same level of sensationalism as Ghafla but so far nothing!

This Madowo man is the same fellow who writes for a newspaper that was unethical enough to publish the photo of a bruised and horribly bloodied woman after the Westgate Attack on the Sunday Nation front page. Not only that, they went ahead to do such a pathetic job on the Garissa attacks which again had its eye on the price- getting clicks rather than getting the gist of the story.

And now this same man wants to coach us what responsible journalism is?? please! Sit down and take a selfie son.

For how long have you been in the industry again?? 3 minutes!?

And allow me to remind you; Ghafla is a BLOG. An urban blog. Not some mainstream National newspaper religiously read by some carrot farmers in Karachuonyo.

And thus, You CANNOT and WILL NOT police us. No, you can’t!

Oh, and then I heard that you and Jeff Koinange (a man I deeply revere) made a bet on who would interview Barrack Obama first. And I immediately put my money on the Emmy Award-winning Jeff Koinange. Not because he is the one that CAN actually do it…But the one that SHOULD actually do it. Assuming it’s even possible.

I mean, what’s your track record again?? Vera Sidika? Huddah? Davido? Puh-leeeeze.

Let’s face it, your hugely-popular show THE TREND is really the Ghafla version of TV. It’s a ratchet tabloid show that has, for years now, survived on sensationalism, low brow celebrity guests, grainy cat videos, Hollywood worship and some other mundane stuff.

And yet, we haven’t ever penned a piece castigating the show. It’s mediocrity notwithstanding.

You can take shots at other blogs (they rightfully deserve to be taken shots at) but NOT at Ghafla…a website that has, for almost half a decade now, not just entertained but also dutifully informed millions of Kenyans on a daily-infect-hourly basis. And talking of facts, Ghafla has an average of 2.6 million unique visitors and not what you blatantly shared with your audience so get your facts right first before you start name shaming others.

While we are not denying that some of our headlines can be, as you so put it, “deliberately vague”, we must also let you know that BEFORE we publish ANY story we MUST FIRST call the protagonist.

But almost all the phone calls Ghafla has ever made to you were reduced to a childish display of hostility and conceitedness and vain emotionalism.

And on that note, given that you are NOT Jennifer Lopez, we gave up calling you.

Ghafla is a company that employs close to-if not-20 young, industrious Kenyans and you are therefore quite out of order the moment you chose to trivialize and pooh-pooh the concerted efforts of such a team, it’s shortcomings notwithstanding.

And did you just mention that TV is still going to survive the beckoning online revolution? I think not and let me portray this by sharing this important research that was recently released by Google in a training they recently held:

As you can clearly see, your industry is slowly being overtaken by the internet and it’s only a matter of time before your ignorance ass is phased out. As we speak now, agencies have started evaluating how they’re spending their budgets and you can be lest assured they’re heading our way and this is why;

I will take a key scenario in the states. In 1990, when a news story broke, you found out about it from a handful of venues: Three major TV news channels, your single local newspaper, the “newspaper of record” (nytimes), or one of maybe five radio stations. Whatever revenue there was to have was very focused and centralized.

Contrast to 2011, when a quick search on Google news shows 4,038 sources reporting on gay marriage in New York. From about seven sources to four thousand.

If you added up all of the revenue from those 4,000 sources, you don’t think they’d meet or exceed the revenue from your seven sources in 1990?

The money is out there and being earned, but it’s not in one place. Revenue used to look like lakes: “rivers” of income streaming into a few big repositories.

Now it looks like puddles: lots of little pockets and many advertisers and companies are looking forward to rip off from these. 2,3 or even 5 years down the line, it will be impossible to sustain your industry so if you’ll just have to result to the little cocoon you came from.

As I have established, instead of taking time to learn and understand the online game, you have instead opted to turn a blind eye and instead expose your blatant ignorance for the world to see. Change is coming and change is inevitable so your better shape up or leave the space.

Or is your ego just too big to stomach everything? I clearly understand though, it’s sad to realize you’re on a level field with a 13 year old sitting at home with no clothes on.

 

 

After the xenophobic killings, South Africa is in the headlines once again after President Jacob Zuma signed into law a bill seeking to have HIV+ people tattooed near their private parts in what is said is an aim to curb the rising cases of HIV infection.

The South African leader said that the bill would help to identify people with HIV and protect those who cannot abstain from having sex.

While everybody is airing their views over the same, many Kenyans seem to be reading from the same script.

Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko posed this simple question to Kenyans whether they would allow HIV positive persons to be marked for easy identification to avoid infecting others.

While very few agreed, these are the funny reactions majority of them gave. Find out why corruption was mentioned largely in the reactions.

Sonko asked:

ALL HIV POSITIVE PEOPLE WOULD BE MARKED NEAR THEIR GENITALS

President Zuma signed a bill that seem to be the greatest step in history of trying to combat HIV. From now on every person who gets tested and found to be HIV positive would not just get counselling and medication. They would also get a mark in a form of a tattoo near their genital according to the bill singed by the president.

“The mark is to protect those who can’t say no to sex. I mean if you can’t read between the lines you should read between the legs because that’s where the status would be tatted. The choice to be HIV positive is now in your hands or your genitals for that matter….We also encourage those who had been living with the virus to go to the nearest public hospitals to get their status tatted in”. Said Jacob Zuma after signing the bill and drinking his ARV’s.

After the sensational firing and re-hiring of Bonoko and the firing of Annitah Rey, another notable Ghetto Radio presenter has left the Ngara-based radio station.

According to a very reliable source, the good looking breakfast show host, Solloo left the station last week and did not show up the following day. Batman a lunchtime host who hosted alongside Annitah has been hosting the breakfast show for a week now.Then yesterday he was handed the dreaded”You are fired letter’.

Solloo(The girl’s at Ghetto Radio must be so disappointed )

Ghafla spoke to Solloo who confirmed that he had indeed left Ghetto Radio but said he was not in a position to give the details of his departure as of now.

We spoke to the Human Resource Manager who distanced herself from the whole saga, saying that she was on leave and did not know anything about the said issue.

It is common knowledge that Eric Omondi has great taste in women, just check out the gorgeous ladies he hangs out with including Huddah, Sylvia Njoki and Gaylene Ayugi.

So it came as no surprise that his crush this WCW is none other than the gorgeous Sheila Mwanyigha.
Eric was today on AM live when he got to spend some time with the fine diva, posting this :

 

 

That awesome moment when you spend the entire morning with your WCW @sheilamwanyigha AM LIVE

Citizen TV news anchor, Janet Mbugua, has taken off her hat to eight adorable ladies who have dumbfounded her by what they do.

You call it the female takeover, these ladies have attracted the attention of millions, for a good reason of cause. No wonder Janet had to wax lyrical about them.

To start with, today is woman crush Wednesday (#wcw) that kasocial media trend where users share pictures of ladies that they find attractive or admire.

Janet however deviated from #wcw to start her own trend #WomanCanWednesday. This was to honor eight specific ladies that have inspired her.

                                                      Moipei sisters.

Top of the list are the Moipei sisters. The triplets went down history books for being the first Kenyans to sing at an NBA game. They performed US national anthem before the NBA playoff game between the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday the 26^th of April 2015. Yes! Americans were totally impressed by their voices, they got standing ovation.

{youtube}bSJb3ZLlf6w{/youtube}

                                                     Lil Miss Belle

The next lady that Janet adores is a blogger, not just any kind, a kid blogger. She goes by the name Lil Miss Belle on Instagram. So young yet she has already curved a niche for herself on social media. Miss Belle has more followers than some of the adults I know. She is one of the most followed kids in the 254 on Instagram.

Next lady is…

                                                           Eunice Akoth

Eunice Akoth, is that name familiar to you? Well, she is the 10 year-old youngster from Kibera that brought New York to standstill. Her speech/poem, a reminiscent of the fallen American activist, Martin Luther King Jr. made headlines on New York Times, no wonder Janet had to salute her.

                                        Obama ladies

Last but not least are the Obama ladies; Michelle, Malia and Sasha Obama. They need no introduction, the most exalted first family in the world. They are role models to both the young and the old from all over planet earth.

There you go, those are the eight ladies Citizen TV’s Janet Mbugua holds in high regard.

 

 

According to the in ‘innnets’ Esther Pasaris is heavy with child/ has a bun in the oven/preggers whichever rocks your boat.

The rumor mills were on overdrive after people began sharing its photo of Esther Passris looking heavy around the center and people automatically concluded that she is pregnant.

But she decided to address the whole rumor and have fun with it .She wrote this:

 

 

 

If this is pregnancy then it must be 3-4 months. Baby due October – November?

Before adding this:

What did I get from this photo? I got amazing legs for a kikuyu woman:-) Thank you daddy. Opps. I forgot my corset:-)

 

The whole world is bracing itself for one of the biggest boxing events to ever take place in the world as two greatest fighters of our time are set to take to the ring come May 2, 2015.

Philippines’ Manny Pacquiao and USA’a Floyd Mayweather are the most celebrated fighters today after the likes of the legendary Mohammad Ali hang their gloves after glittering careers.

And as everyone is preparing for what has been termed as the fight of the century which will see colossal sums of money splashed for the fight, Kenyans and more so thespians have not been left behind either.

Eric Omondi and Chipukeezy are the latest celebrities to curtain raise for the Fight of the Century. The two have released photos of themselves in full fighting gear and as Carol Radull, who shared the images says, the two are in for a big thing.

So what is it that Eric and Chipukeezy are doing? Probably not fighting because with their muscles, no one will win this battle.

Here is what Carol said about the two as she shared the photo:

carolradull What could these two half dressed “muscle-men” possibly be up to? @ericomondi @chipukeezy Eric Mayweather Vs Chipu Pacquiao or is it Eric Pacman Vs Floyd Chipu… Big reveal coming soon PS Those muscles are intimidating.

 

The continuing down pour in the country has caught many unaware, with drainage in towns across the country blamed for the experienced flooding in most parts of the towns.

In Narok, however, the situation is different as the flash floods wreaked havoc last evening, claiming three lives as two more are reported missing.

The situation worsened when Narok River swell and broke its banks, flooding the town and carrying away people, vehicles and destroying house and infrastructure in general.

The video below clearly shows the losses the county is facing at the moment as the waters swept through the town carrying everything and anything that came their way.

Here is the video courtesy of NTV of what exactly happened:

 

 

Ever since the promulgation of the new constitution and the birth of County assemblies, so much shame has been poured out to the public especially by Members of County Assemblies, showing how low they can stoop to achieve their agenda.

This and many more have prompted calls for the repealing of the constitution to scrap away county assemblies.

And as this is the case, another heinous act has been perpetrated once again by Kisumu County assembly members.

The county’s deputy speaker is hospitalized after she was assaulted by some members of the assembly as she forced her way to the speaker’s seat.

She fainted upon the altercation, requiring treatment.

Here is a video courtesy of NTV showing how the incident happened:
