Njunge,calling a grown man 'son' is very condescending and patronizing to say the least.

@the rest of you

The problem with Kenyans is too much group think,hakuna independent thinking. Take this thread as an example,I come out and say this politicization of PEV funeral by Nation reeks of hypocricy and just fuels hatred,instead of condemning Nation,they all pile on me. It is like it has become fashinable here to bash me regardless of what I say or whether they agree with it or not.

For once Kenyans,think for yourself lest you will always fall for tribal shenanigas,pyramid schemes etc.

You do not go for the funeral of someone who everyone knows you murdered.

The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now.

I agree. I'm tired of this tribal hatred. It's too draining and so pre 2007. Guys don't get drawn into this

I think TB is just obsessed with kyks. I think his wife is a msapere. aiii yawa!!!

I will praise thee,O Lord my God,with all my heart: And I will glorify thy name forever more. Psalms 86:12

@TB

I agree with you that for the same reasons Kibs could not attend those funerals.
But doesn't that just show you that all is not well? This country is not at peace.

The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now.

Even the locals missed the funeral,very sad. Obviously there are still very deep seated issues at the ground level.

I don't want to politicise this issue but guyz what is the way forward for our country. How do we get around all this barriers to the peacefull co-existence we used to have.

What was the point of MK making this a state funeral then failing to ensure that ODM were part of the process,if anything he has made the the situation worse.

It was disheartening that all IS minister could say was that they now had more police stations,why not try and reach out to the other side.


I guess if you can't win with facts,you can always pen bile-laced,xenophobic rants to distract everyone.

TB and co. because you seem to be the flag bearer for all things tribal.

Doesn't it get tiring when you wake up and everything that comes from your mouth is about kyuks?

Doesn't it get tiring when all you see is evil in human beings?

Doesn't it get tiring trying to convert others to a religion that they aren't willing to follow?

TB,you are not special. You are just boring and irritating.

It is 2009 going on 2010,some of us have better things to do than talk about negativity. There is a life out there that is good and wonderful and I think most of the people at sk are searching for it. You unfortunately want us to HATE.

If you have an issue with kikuyus,I suggest you go speak to those who think that they talk for the kikuyus. I doubt if you will find anyone here. I for one do not speak for my culture so I don't expect those with kikuyu blood here to vouch for them either.

If you wish to talk about the issues that afflict our country,please do so but do not try and fool us that you are honest,unbiased and have any shade of objectivity in your bones.

@mtaalam,I guess you want us to preach hate instead. Who do you want me to hate now? Kikuyus,luo's,kalenjins,HIV positive,women,gays,....name one.

If the two of you are stupid enough not to realise that you are being lied to by your politicians,then that is on your own plate,don't bug us with it. If the two of you are shallow enough to think that life is about who is walking on a carpet and peeing in a good toilet,don't bore us with it.

Kenya has big problems. The solution is not hating and using demagogary.

I will disappoint you to tell you that even if you had an all Luo cabinet or all Kalenjin cabinet,with all members of the civil service card holding members of ODM,you will still be a shallow man.

Yesterday was a very solemn affair. People died for being nothing other than being peasants who could not protect themselves. Poor people are still dying,because they are too poor to feed their families.

Somehow,in your wisdom,that it is time to add politics even in their funerals. I pity you. I will be praying for your soul as you need more than a hug.

Get a life!

I have hope in my country as I believe it is the best country in the world. We work hard for what we get. We have survived inspite of our politicians. We will do better inspite of TB like humans. Kenya is beautiful and I suggest that everytime TB and his simplitons write something negative,let us give our neighbour a hug.

@Jalofg - Wise words.

Reconciliation is the only way...I know the next thing you will hear from the leaders as we small people fight is that 'this coalition is united' 'we will work together'

I mean fundamental analysis,you get me?

Fundamental analysis of a business involves analyzing its financial statements and health,its management and competitive advantages,and its competitors

@mtaalam

So long as we have ostrich-head-in-sand mentality of akina nanfor,Kenya will just get from bad to worse. These elites just want to pretend that all is good and Kenyans will just forgive and forget when their leaders keep shafting them everyday.

The only way is to confront our issues head on. Lets have a honest talk about tribalism,nepotism,past grievances etc. Sweeping these issues under the carpet and singing 'kumbaya my lord' will not make them go away.
