Most reporters/journalists (both male and female) have absolutely no understanding of what they report on. They rely on people in the background to do all the research and feed them with data/information.

The problem comes in when these reporters/journalists report other people's thoughts for some time and imagine they have become an authority!

Just watch live interviews when the interviewee steers the conversation in another direction (that the reporter/journalist had not prepped for) and see how quickly things go south. Or suddenly "we will be back after the break" - after the producers realize their person is making a fool of themselves!!!

Some of these MPs, Senators and other politicians are like the mafia. They try to benefit from everything from banking to garbage collection!!!

For those not in the know, let me tell you how it works. These politicians have guys on the inside all over. These guys sniff any corrupt dealings going on and report back to their master. The politician then approaches the corrupt fellows in person or using emissaries and blackmail/threaten the fellows. These includes threatening to raise the issue in parliament, talking to the press, bringing a bill in parliament etc. The corrupt fellows agree to play ball and the politician is given several millions, depending on the amount being made and everything is swept under the carpet.

Case in point. The Waiguru issue. There was one fellow who was her chief supporter issuing statements right left and center. When the sh!t hit the fan, his name came up, Waiguru mentioned names and the chief supporter turned against the same Waiguru!!!

When you hear these politicians issuing statements, they are probably protecting themselves. They know that if we get to the bottom of this, their names will definitely come up. So they muddy the waters well in advance! Others didn't get the original cut but have now received their scuttling allowance and have gone to work! Welcome to Kenya!!!

hapa I am on the menu, can't understand whatever is being talked about in tongues. Just crossing my fingers no one at the table picks the menu item that I am on.
when a bank goes under, what amount of deposit is one assured will be returned, I think at this rate its just better to spread oneself thn across all the banks.

The bottom line is that CHASE WAS/STILL IS A STRONG BANK but we chose to kick it harder when it was down.

The problems could gave been sorted away from the public and today we would still be operating.Governance and leadership problems.

In this republik we have people called "mbari ya gathukia".They rejoice when bad things are happening to other people.I have faith that Chase will reopen soon.

Hata hapo kuna ukora.........

@Alma, Mafia economy works by the Mafioso taking care of everyone in the food chain. From the bank teller, manager, directors, regulators (including auditors), police, prosecutors, court clerks, judges, politicians.... whoever else.

I think you used the right words here.

Mafia

Look at these so called betting companies popping up. One of them is allegedly owned by a family member who allegedly is wanted in another country for alleged fraud. Yet they are safi kama pamba all smiles.

But ohhhh Kenyans will go betting with them. Not realising they are cleaning mafia money.

I support impunity this time. I'll keep my money in my burning "brankets"

I trust no one with my money. Those saying property, all I can tell you is shauri yenu.

On another note. Why is it that only lions are escaping from Nairobi National Park and not giraffe, gazelle or even snakes?

Lions are much prized and killing one or getting one kill a person sends a strong info to world; then the park will be relocated leaving out a chunk of prime proti.
Giraffes or gazzeles hazina mbei.

Did the word "STRONG" change its meaning?

This BS been spread here that Chase Bank was and still is a "STRONG" bank should STOP. Chase Bank was a fraud. A fraud waiting to be exposed just like any other before it.

STRONG - able to withstand great force or pressure.
synonyms: secure, well built, indestructible, well fortified, well protected, impregnable, solid
"a strong fortress"
durable, hardwearing, heavy-duty, industrial-strength, tough, sturdy, well made, long-lasting

Been thinking when these guys wanted to arrest bloggers they did it real quick, but these guys who are making some kenyans commit suicide I haven't heard of any arrest .

How can I become tanzania citizen legally .I wish mafughuli can help kenya
