HELP END KENYA GENOCIDE
As per this evening, 209 lives had been lost in post-election violence, 108, 000 families will rest in tree shades without home and hope for a future, A workforce of more than 9 Million People will not wake up tomorrow will expectation to go to work and the 2 Billions Shillings that the Kenya People make daily to support there Economy will not come their way since the Nariobi Stock Exhcnage Center suspended trading due to post-election castigated violence.

The President of Kenya, Hon. Mwai Kibaki, who has since his election been applauded for exemplary Economic growth, Free primary Education and a wider democratic space will continue to be accused as all this happen by the oppostion for the Electoral malpractises that occured in the last general election.

As this happens, the Orange Democratic Party will be engaged in crossed door discussions planning and drafting their next press statement in regards to election violence as the media fraternity prepared once again for a long day tomorrow with most coverage given to Hon. Raila Odinga of ODM and Kibaki Stewalts in PNU.

As the People languish in poverty and loose their life to fight for leaders who do not lead by exmaple the international community will be busy issuing stamtments on after another calling for dialogue and peace, the press statements will be issued so frequent and often you might think that there is a G8 Summit happening right here in Africa and all the World Leaders including the Pope are attending.

It is time to stand-up and be counted, refuse to be drwan in allegations that inspire the violence, castigate the bitterness and divided a nation that was once the most stable democracy in Africa.

The Elections results were rigged, that is very true but the Violence I believe in being castigated by our own Leaders. When we call for violent protests on daily basis we put the future of a Nation in an unstable condition it is high time all World leaders speak for kenya and ask both President Mwai Kibaki and Hon. Raila Odinga to step down and give other Kenyans a chance to offer expertise to this Nation.

209 Lives are not worth for an individual to achieve an ambition whether its Kibaki or Raila or Ruto or tom dick and Harry! We cannot govern a nation that is at war with itself, we cannot rule a Nation that its people are divided on tribal lines, we cannot have a Nation where the media is so sensational that it choses the news that amuses the public rather than those that informs the public.

The older generation has failed its young lambs, It is selfish, self-centered, power hungry and will stop at nothing to achieve individual personal power. All indivudlas currently claiming to be sheeps in a goats camp were goats in yesteryears.

Hon Raila Odinga purchased the Molases plant far behind the Market value in Nyanyo Era, Hon. Ruto is alleged to have grabbed Cementary land and sold it back to the National Social Security Fun, Hon. Mudavadi was one of the architects in the 1992 Goldenberg Scam, Hon. Nyanga actually accepted that they did rig elections in Moi' s Era, Hon. Kibaki was the Moi Vice President for 10 years and during the clamaour for multiparty democracy he made the remark that, "you cannot cut a Mugomo tree will a razor blade, Mr. William Ole Nitmama castigated the Molo Clashes with his famous remark, "Let the Kikuyu lie low like an Antelope and Sally Kosgey the newly elected Member of parliament was the Head Of Public Service in Moi's Cabinet when the Nyayo Torture Chambers were like a hotel and many people lost their lives. Mr. kalonzo served as Moi's Minister for Foreign Affairs during the dark days when women were raped by a unit known as Special Branch, where lawlessness was the order of the day and where research institutions collapsed due to limited funding and public looting. Hon. Awori the current Vice President was an Assistant Minister in Moi's era and Hon. Kenyatta, his father was accused of grabbing a large piece of land during the post-idependent era.

WHo's fooling Who?

This Afternoon my Foundation unveilled the MLK Call Center to help indivdiuals and Communities afftected by post election violence The Media never covered the event since there was none of these politicians present, they prefer sensational news and political rhetoric over actual action.

Say no to Kibaki Say no to Raila Say yes to our future

I ACCUSE KENYA
As per this evening, 209 lives had been lost in post-election violence, 108, 000 families will rest in tree shades without home and hope for a future, A workforce of more than 9 Million People will not wake up tomorrow with any expectation of going to work and the 2 Billions Shillings that the Kenya People make daily to support there Economy will not come their way since the Nairobi Stock Exchange Center suspended trading due to post-election castigated violence. The President of Kenya, Hon. Mwai Kibaki, who has since his election in 2002, been applauded for exemplary Economic growth, Free primary Education and a wider democratic space will continue to be accused by the opposition for the Electoral malpractices that occurred in the just ended general election.

As this happens, the Orange Democratic Party will be engaged in crossed door discussions planning and drafting their next press statement in regards to election violence and the media fraternity will be prepared once again for a long day tomorrow to offer coverage to Hon. Raila Odinga and his War men of ODM and Kibaki Stewarts in PNU.

In the evening, I will watch as the media reports about these candidates, the media will show each party accusing the other of rigging, it will tell us of their plan to take each other to court and more so will show us glaring pictures of the 34 Women and Children who were burnt in a church for one cardinal crime belonging to an ethnicity that isn’t associated with Hon. Raila Odinga. It will show with much enthusiasm pictures of the Africa Inland Church as it burns to Ashes, the only crime being to have offered a haven for individual’s fleeing the violence in fear of their lives.

After an advertisement about peace, the media will show more pictures of riots, it will show young people looting a shop in Kisumu, torching down houses in Eldoret and stoning vehicles in the Coast province.

After another advertisement of commercial nature, Hon. Raila Odinga will appear in the screens calling his supporters for peace, and then there will be his Stewarts re-affirming that call. The only problem is that a day earlier the same individuals had talked about Kenya becoming like all the other war-tone countries, they had offered on expertise though not trained on conflict and more so they had diagnosed the what are the causes of the war, its rise and more so what leads to its fall.

As we watch, the pain lingers, the bitterness will deepen and we will argue with our friends, refuse to talk with some in the process and for extremist kill those who do not agree with our leader’s statement. Then, we will languish and loose our right to life and property as we fight battles with each other for leaders who do not lead by example.

But we will not be alone, The International community will be busy issuing statements one after another calling for dialogue and peace, the press statements will be issued so frequent and often by the Diplomatic Missions you might think that there is a G8 Summit happening right here in Kenya and all the World Leaders including the Pope Benedict the XVI are attending.

As this happens, the Leaders will drive around in the slums with the latest top cars from Germany, Britain and Singapore. They will drive in the streets with no less than four bodyguards each armed and an escort car to boot. More so, they will coincidentally meet in ravish hotels and display the latest mobile telephony. Their houses will be a display of wealth in full splendor leaving their followers with no other ambition expect hope, hope to get to heaven and enjoy the free palace claimed to be given by those who profess the Faith of the Nazareth. Their Children grinning with health, peace and security will also be their standing next to their fathers and mothers calling on the populace caring to listen to reject a system that oppress them.

The main steam media will be their in their hundreds, the flash lights will make a poor man blind and some will no be mistaken to think they are watching some kind of Hollywood blitz. Their pictures will splash in the diaries the next day and individuals who are rather not used to this, might find themselves wondering if the Kenya leadership keep winning the Nobel Peace prize everyday.

By contract, the populace standing and listening will manifest ill-health and bigotry, they will look uneducated and when they talk to express, their words will be full of mediocrity, sycophancy and ignorance.

Welcome to Kenya 2008, Our Elections were rigged; I am sure by now that simple fact you know. 209 Lives are not worth to achieve an ambition whether it’s Mwai Kibaki or Raila Odinga or William Ruto or Tom, Dick and Harry!

You cannot govern a nation that is at war with itself, you cannot rule a Nation that it’s people are divided on social class yet they presume it’s tribal ethnicity, We cannot have a Nation where the media is so sensational that it chooses the news that amuses the public rather than those that informs the public.

The older generation has failed its young lambs; it is selfish, self-centered, power hungry and will stop at nothing to achieve personal power. All individuals currently claiming to be sheep’s in a goat’s camp were goats in goat camps in yesteryears.

Hon Raila Odinga purchased the Molasses plant far behind the Market value in Nyayo Era, Hon. William Ruto is alleged to have grabbed Cemetery land and sold it back to the National Social Security Fund at an exorbitant prize, Hon. Musalia Mudavadi was one of the architects in the 1992 Goldenberg Scam, Hon. Nyanga actually accepted that they did rig elections in Moi' s Era during a recent press briefing by ECK, Hon. Kibaki was the Moi’s Vice President for 10 years and during the clamor for multiparty democracy he made the remark that, "you cannot cut a Mugomo tree will a razor blade, Mr. William Ole Ntimama castigated the Molo clashes with his famous remark, "Let the Kikuyu lie low like an Antelope and Sally Kosgey the newly elected Member of parliament was the Head of Public Service in Moi's Cabinet when the Nyayo Torture Chambers were used to curtail democratic freedom. Mr. Kalonzo Musyoka served as Moi's Minister for Foreign Affairs during the dark days when women were raped by a unit known as Special Branch, where lawlessness was the order of the day and where research institutions collapsed due to limited funding and public looting. Hon. Moody Awori the current Vice President was an Assistant Minister in Moi's era while Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta, his father was accused of grabbing a large piece of land during the post-independent era. Hon. Otieno Kajwang was removed from the lawyers list for stealing client money (actually the forum is independent of Government interference) He has since being elected as a Member of Parliament for Mbita.

It is time to stand-up and be counted, refuse to be drawn in allegations and counter allegations that inspire the violence, castigate the bitterness and divide a nation that was once the most stable democracy in Africa.

The older generation has failed its young lambs; it is selfish, self-centered, power hungry and will stop at nothing to achieve individual personal power. All individuals currently claiming to be sheep’s in a goat’s camp were goats in goat’s camps in yesteryears.

I accuse Kenya, Who is fooling who?

This afternoon, the Martin Luther King Jr. Africa Foundation unveiled the Martin Luther King Jr. Non-Violence Call Center to provide swift and immediate assistance to individuals living in post-election violence areas and areas that there is conflict. This Call Service has 6-member staff and 7 PILOT LIINES.

NONE OF THE NEWS MEDIA COVERED THE EVENT! REASON there was none of the aforementioned leaders at the Press Conference and the message was not news worthy.

Please pass it along: If you know of any individual who might be in danger, they can call the MLK Non-Violence Call Center on Phone: 020-353 555 8 Mobile: +254 735 35 35 35 or +254 722 69 72 72

Stand up and be counted, Speak for what is Right.

Speak for A generation

Support Peace
