Leave Sonko Alone And Go For the Well Known Big Criminals.

Of course the police want to be 'seen to be doing something' in regard to recent waves of corruption and soar away crime in good old Kenya. So they go for Sonko, the newly elected Makadara MP. This is after they had given him a certificate of good conduct to vie for the said seat! The police even comically took him to court today, late in the evening knowing very well that the court was closed for the day and the good judge possibly sipping cold tusker somewhere away from the madness of criminals.

Why can't the bungling and inept police, voted continuously for over 5 years as the most corrupt institution, go for the real big fish? If indeed they wanted, they would be spoilt for choice. From Goldenberg scumbags, Triton thieves, Anglo Leasing bandits and Grand Regency looters? Hell, they could even opt to look into Passat deal, De la Rue, Free primary education, IDP funds, Maize scam etc. These are the biggest thieves, liars, crooks and cheats ruining our economy and lives of innocent Kenyans who continue dying due to lack of medicare, bad roads, lack of relief food and books for kids in schools. What about the land grabbers and cocaine smugglers lurking inside the Govt that were recently named by the American ambassador?

I'm not saying that Sonko is innocent or guilty, that's not for me to judge. Most people view him as a modern day Robin Hood who just wants to help the poor by any means necessary. What I'm saying is this, there are many past files on big thieves waiting to be acted upon. Why be so so choosy when meting out justice? Pounce on them and lock the biggest criminals first and fast. They are the biggest threat we have as a nation! Sonko will then come in later....

What a Senseless Waste of Young Lives!

You should be able to enjoy driving your car without much worry on any given day here in Nairobi and indeed throughout the country, right? Wrong! We have hundreds of unqualified and drunk drivers on our roads at any given time ready to smash right into your vehicle. In fact, drunks can be seen driving even at noon without a care in the world. One only needs to drive at night from around 11pm along Lang'ata road and Waiyaki Way and see the unbelievable carnage caused by reckless young people in their souped up Subaru Imprezza's and Forresters!

These young men and women are mostly drunk and hit the road like Kamikaze pilots ready for a suicide mission. As it's always too common, they are always dead on time. And what for at such tender age of 25? Even if you are one careful driver who happens to obey all the known traffic rules, be careful since a mad man may plough right into you any time here in Nairobi!

Another menace comes from Matatu madness who flout even the simplest of known road courtesy. The brains of matatu drivers are usually fuming and filled with stress to the brim. The hot head that is matatu driver is constantly thinking about saving the next minute or two and making an extra shilling here and there before he ends the shift. As it's always too common, he ends up banging right into an innocent driver or mowing a innocent pedestrian. This ultimately ends up draining all that he has worked for so hard for the last one year or so.

And where are the notoriously lazy and inefficient traffic cops as all the madness is going on? Of course, they are busy out there milking our pockets dry in tiniest of bribes. One should basically be able to enjoy his ride without much worry. But in Kenya, a vehicles is best described as a gift that became a curse. You are on your own when it comes to driving on Kenyan roads.

"Sonko Is An Animal in Bed"- Claims His Ex

- Urban Legend Sonko is not only good in drawing bad cheques, jumping bail or escaping from jail but has other hidden talent he refuses to share with his fans: he's the greatest lover of all! This not so shocking revelation is from a lady who works in the media and who claims to be his ex is bound to excite even more idle minds that never tire of talking about the flashy new kid in town who is famed for his deep pockets and love of flashy ice.

The said ex, name withheld for obvious reasons is yapping all over to anyone who cares to listen that when she was 'pushing' with man Sonko several years ago, he was "an animal" when it comes exercising his waist in the bedroom department. The lady, with her eyes beaming told us how Sonko would bump and grind like a love struck teenager till the wee hours of the morning just before the birds could start humming. "He's the greatest lover of them all!" She whined in our office as scores gathered to listen to her not knowing whether to believe, laugh, cry or roll down and die.

So there you go for more juicy gossip about man like Sonko which is not too harsh unlike the ones about Kamiti and bad cheques. And with that bit of harmless gossip, Sonko is bound to get himself more fans in the name of bored housewives whose obsession is watching cheap day time soap operas from Mexico and lots of predictable Nigerian "movies" if we can call them that. I hope next time Sonko rides for his campaigns the bored housewives won't hurl their panties as missiles to the greatest lover of them all!

Mike Sonko's Win Equals Karua's Own Goal?

1. Have you guys noticed Iron Lady Martha Karua is laying low after her party's big win instead of being out there celebrating?

2. Do you know with Sonko's victory (a very dodgy character indeed to some) Martha Karua may have scored an own goal?

3. Do you know PNU was shell shocked after the defeat since they were so confident of winning to an extent that PNU's chairman George Kinuthia Muthengi wa Saitoti didn't even bother to campaign for his buddies?

4. Did you know after Saitoti learnt of the defeat, his skin crawled in anger and his hair stood straight. A very close insider told me an angry Saitoti banged the table with his fist and screamed, "I want a file of that Makanga Sonko opened immediately!" Saitoti wants the KRA, KACC, CID et all trawling Sonko's life history, his wealth, girlfriends, wives, vehicles, telephone numbers which are already bugged, his bank accounts etc.

5. Do you know Sonko's win will be used to tarnish Iron Lady in the coming weeks? Already NSIS under the command of Major General Gichangi is working very hard on it to an extent of posting in various blogs including here allegations that Sonko is a drugs baron who is financing Narc-Kenya?

Watch this space. Someone has rattled the snake which will soon bite back. PNU thugs will not take the defeat lying down. Some PNU big shots who are so powerful to an extent they decide who breathes and who goes six feet under are busy doing what they do best- SCHEMING!!!!!!!

Sonko who is so politically naive should stop yapping around that he has 200 bank accounts and a ship. This man is over excited and his handlers are clearly letting him down. He should lay low, probably take a well deserved holiday until things cool down. Politics, he will learn very fast can be very dirty. He's dancing himself lame even before the music has begun!

By Election Analysis

I'm happy coz thuggish Ndolo is now history. Trust me you will never ever hear that horrible name as far as politics of Nairobi is concerned. He spent/burnt millions but sober folks like me knew his fate had already been sealed.

He will forever be remembered for his "weka tyre" speech urging his supporters to set ablaze Kikuyu opponents. He's still under investigations by KACC for misuse of CDF cash back in the day when he was MP. It's good riddance to bad rubbish!

I said here 2 months ago Sonko Mbuvi was the man to watch in Makadara. The guy has done lots of good job in the slums like paying for driving licenses for all the makangas on that route, starting car wash biz for the youth, employing lots of youth in his matatus, bars and construction biz etc. When the young folks looked at him they saw one of their own, even in dressing sense. I still don't know his real name, is it George/Gideon/Michael?

As for George Thuo the elitist snob is concerned, now we know now he indeed stole the elections in 2007. You will always find Kabogo eating mandazi or drinking beer in one of those dingy and sweaty places in Thika or Nairobi together with the common folks.

But not the elitist Thuo whose buddies are rich and famous land barons like Uhuru. Thuo can now go back and concentrate in managing his run down Citi Hoppas which are famed for ripping off customers especialy travelling short distances. He has been left with a huge bill but lucky guy it won't dent his big bank balance. You can check in my blog an article I did long ago called "hopeless city hoppas!"

Maina Kamanda the former hawker and councillor was arrogant to say the least to a point of not appearing in any talk show on TV. Even PNU mandarins foolishly thought the trophy was in the bag that they avoided campaigning for him. This arrogance floored him and you will never hear him again in politics after being rejected twice. He has a huge tab to pick for the petition and by election campaign.

As for madam Bishop, well she had to sweat it out on her own after being kind of isolated by her own party who thought Kamanda would win. Wanjiru fought tough campaigns and could be seen criss crossing from one TV studio to the next never mind she had campaigned against the new constitution. People looked at her and voted for her as a person and her party never played any significance. This woman, like her or hate her fought a good fight and deserved the win! She's emerged as a tough nut to crack and hopefully she will go for the Guvnor of Nai. Who know?

Kabogo was a bitter man from the start coz he always believed he had won in 2007 and rightly so and thus proved his point with a well deserved landslide. I have met Kabogo twice in recent months and believe me his sight is set on higher things like being Guvnor of Kiambu county. This man has magnetic appeal and is very likeable.

He has the deep pockets to go for the county Guvnor and huge popularity. Those who know his humble abode in Nyali Mombasa which is the size of state house know what I mean when I say he's the real sonko- a man of means. Only the son of Jomo can match that as far as Kiambu is concerned but Jomo Jnr has his eyes trained on bigger offices of the land if the Hague doesn't do him.

Questions will also be raised after Jomo jnr lost in Juja his own turf since it's part of Kiambu where Iron Lady Karua triumphed, mind you she's from far away Kirinyaga. It was a big triumph for the Iron Lady as far as influence in Central politics is concerned.

My 2 cents worth.

These Bloody Politicians Can't Even Manage a Village Cattle Dip!

First they shamelessly invited a wanted mass murderer on the most important day since 1963 when we celebrated our Independence. Can someone please explain to me what we gained as a nation by inviting Al-Bashir and humiliating the Southern Sudanese? Instead of the world joining us in that fete and talking about our new born country, two weeks later, everyone is still talking about how the day was hijacked, airport shut and how Al-Bashir gatecrashed our party.

Then the sham census results that cost the tax payer over 12 billion shillings were announced after months and months of doctoring the figures and dithering. They came as fraudulent as expected. Nothing is adding up, whether you text for the figures using the special number given or checked the 'official' figures that were released by minister Oparanya. So much wasted time and money in the shambolic exercise. We never seem to get anything right in Africa. And yet, the minister in charge of the whole bogus exercise is still in office collecting a whooping 1 million plus- per month in salary and allowances. What a joke this nation is!
