EDITORIAL: TINDI MWALE HOW NOT TO RENOVATE.

Image
By @eshikumo2030 Investigative Team WHAT MATTERS. It does not take an expert to know and see shoddy works weather funded by TAXE payers or private cash The works going on at Shibembe Primary both the four classes and the storey building are for lack of  better words, expensively dangerous. The four classes being 'renovated' were built in the early 70s its not logical or enough to just remove the roof, paint and use the same timber on new iron sheets. It's illogical to save on nails by straightening the old ones and still using them on the building. NG-CDF Butere put Ksh 2Million on the account of the school for the renovation. Money was withdrawn after the PMC chairman was told by the MP to sign a cheque of 350,000 to fund Butere Primary Education day.  Both the the Chairman and the Treasurer are still waiting to see the renovation Bill of Quantities for which the contractor says is still at Public Works.  According to the Chairman and Treasurer PMC shibembe pri

RAILA IN KAKAMEGA TO DISCUS SENATOR MALALA.

Image
By Amunga Akhanyalabandu. During their tour of Kakamega yesterday the AZIMIO LA Uwongo team blamed Malala for woes of Mumias sugar. Junet and Raila both singled out our vibrant senator claiming he had stopped progress on Mumias. But Cleo in a swift rejoinder captured on KTN told the AZIMIO LA Uwongo team that they looted Mumias and killed it even before he was elected. Raila who was captured on clip telling youths in Butere how he had already paid them for his presence in the region, had a rough time trying to convince abaluhya what he has done for them.  Malala told them that hasira Yao na yeye is because he has locked western region for Musalia Mudavadi. Truth is, RAILA has lost touch with Luhya NATION. His handshake thing with president UHURU is meaningless to the Luhya. If it was anything of importance we would not see Mumias sugar closed down as it is today. Let UHURU KENYATTA and Raila Odinga retire. Wamalize wakwende.

President Uhuru Kenyatta during a tour of the Kenyan small arms manufacturing plant.  BY AMUNGA AKHANYALABANDU. It will never be the same again at the Government African school until Mr Orina Gerald quits. A court order yesterday quashed the decision by the BOM at Kakamega to charge parents 21 million for a partially burnt dorm. Form fours had reported back to the embattled in school this week Monday after a school fire Last night their armed and dangerous principal was supervising preps with a gun in his hip pocket. The students confronted him telling him they are not criminals to be supervised by a gun touting principal. They demanded to go back home, which they did. This time peacefully and without burning anything.

SCHOOL FIRES: KAKAMEGA PRINCIPAL DEMANDS KSH 22M FROM PARENTS.

Image
By Amunga Akhanyalabandu Parents at Kakamega high school are up in arms and have said they will defy charges OF UPTO 22 MILLION that have been imposed on them to mitigate the effects of a fire in the school last week. Parents in their WhatsApp groups have vowed to storm the school on 15th November and demand for ejection and eviction of the now proven thief of a principal one Gerald Orina and his corrupted BOM. In a letter the embattled Orina is asking for  9800 for each of the 2,200 students before they are allowed back to the now emaciated school. In addition to this, they will have to clear all fee balances and pay for the transport, pocket money uniform etc of their children. Principal Orina in a letter to parents openly lies to them that a storied dorm that houses 560 learners was completely destroyed and must be restructured. He says, 12 MILLION will go to the building and another ten million  he will buy beds and mattresses for affected learners. A big rip off by all

𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 𝐁𝐘 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐇 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐆𝐈𝐒𝐓.  Hon. Kassim Were Ali, CEC Member Social Services, Youths, Sports and Culture. Transiting to KASSIM WERE - THE BRAINS BEHIND STIMULATION OF TRADE, INDUSTRIALIZATION & TOURISM God showed him about: REVIVAL OF MSC  It's would have been easier to fight COVID-19 with an operational MSC today. Notwithstanding, those who perpetually brought our economy down, he is bringing hygiene in  the sugarcane sector, supporting sugarcane development, and encouraging residents in the footsteps of the Late Hon.

WHAT THE KAKAMEGA ANC FORMATION WOULD POTEND.

Image
Analysis by George Omulama in Butere.  Politicians in Kenya have a tendency of forming alliances towards the general election. Kakamega County has not been left behind as various contestants begin to eye the various elective positions in the 2022 race.  A quartet of leaders looks to form a political force through the Western dominant ANC party to contest for the various elective positions in the forthcoming general elections. Senator Cleophas Malala.  Is a well-known vibrant politician capable of attracting youth votes that can tilt the balance of any contest at the county level. With the previous Governor having come from lower Kakamega, it is expected that Upper Kakamega voters might be convinced to back one of their own, this time round.  The former Deputy Minority leader has mobilised the youths through his Cleo Malala super Cup and it is expected the youth will be the backbone to his campaigns.  The prospective Governor’s headache will be how to show that h

OPINION : A CASE FOR FERNANDES BARASA IN KAKAMEGA BID.

Image
KETRACCO CEO Fernandes Baraza who has declared his interest to run for Kakamega Governor in 2022.  OPINION With just an annual budget of 15.2 billions, Kakamega County has been able to deliver quality services to the people because we entrusted our resources to an individual who has financial knowledge and experience in managing resources.  This great County will only be able to perform better again if we again entrust another individual who has the knowledge, experience and proven performance displayed elsewhere. Let me  elaborate here candidly why we must by all odds choose a manager to run the affairs of this county. With an already worse economic situation in our country, anyone with an eagle's eye must be able to see hard times far on the horizon. The huge loans from IMF, World Bank, Euro bond and ADB are to be paid, starting in 2-3 years time. The government must continue running its affairs regardless of this situation.   Since these monies must come
