LETS PROTECT OUR ENDANGERED SPECIES

The environment is the surrounding that we live in daily. despites mans knowledge of the need to conserve the environment many of our people don't do so.

As a matter of urgency many of our species are geting distinct due to lack of breeding habitats. the need to conserve the environment is aclear indication of shaping the future generation so that we can generate more from tourism.

Lamas are species that need to be protected so that we keep them from geting distinct for our future generations.
The height of a full-grown, lama is between 1.7 meters and 1.8 meters tall at the top of the head. They can weigh between approximately 130 kilograms and 200 kilograms . At birth, a baby lama (called a cria) can weigh between 9.1 kilograms and 14 kilograms . Lamas are very social animals and like to live with other llamas as a herd. Overall, the fiber produced by a llama is very soft and is naturally lanolin free. Lamas are intelligent and can learn simple tasks after a few repetitions. When using a pack, llamas can carry about 25% to 30% of their body weight for several miles.

Llamas appear to have originated from the central plains of North America about 40 million years ago. They migrated to South America about 3 million years ago. By the end of the last ice age (10,000–12,000 years ago) camelids were extinct in North America.

As kenyans we should learn to protect endangered species by saying abig NO to poaching of wild animals.

constitutional debate

As the clock ticks the rush for final votes is at the minds of the two political divide. The constitutional dispensation has long been awaited and now the country prepares for the historical moment when the voices of the people will be respected.
the usual bickering by our politicians has left many heads rolling as each camp both from the YES and the NO team have contradictory messages.

With both sides claiming to be interpreting the draft the use of the propose draft to score political mileage for 2012 is what people are failing to understand. only democracy can prevail in a nation that respects the wishes of the people no matter the outcome of the coming referendum.

Its the task of Kenyans to make there wise decision so that impunity cease to prevail in the coming future generations since we are aiming at achieving the much proclaimed vision 2030.

worldcup experience

For the first time Africa had the opportunity to hold the world cup. the rest of the world witnessed the dramatic events that was in South Africa. the experience of vuvuzela was added by the fact of the Paul the Octopus who predicted the eight matches of Germany.

The octopus that shot to fame with its incredibly accurate predictions of World Cup match results is to set to become a legend of the silver screen. surely if Africa is united we can scale to higher heights despite the lucrative loss in the semi-finals by Ghana to Uruguay.
All in all we have prove that Africa can be a great continent with diverse resources and talents.

kenyans have spoken

The recent turning of events is trowing the country in to astate of array as politicians are out to satisfy there egoism.the altering of the draft constitution is afact prove that democracy and intent for self-centeredness is adream that will take ages to eliminate.
The fact and irony of the attorney general to claim that he is not aware of who inserted aclause on the draft concerning the inteligence service is quite confusing.

Its time kenyans rise to the occasion and give there view on the draft constitution if at all equity is to bound our rights effectively.

we as kenyans deserve equal rights of carrying out the designated roles and our leadrs should stop meddling with the constitution.

Cracking the whip

The recent turn of events in reshuffle of the cabinet clearly indicate the way democracy and in fighting between the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has turn out to be who is mightier and has the real power.

The shift of the cabinet is part of governments effort to punish rebelled members of cabinet as it was in the last 2005 referendum where all cabinet who led the no campaign were sacked.

The move by Prime Minister is seen by many as part pining down his deputy party leader since as the two of them have been breaking ranks on various diverse national issues.

The move to shift Hon William Ruto to Ministry of Higher Education however has not shocked many as Kenyans expected the PM to take the move and sack the Minister having being in the lead in criticizing him in public over the last one year.

Well the PM might have scored the political mileage but Kenyans are left wondering what to expect more in this political circus game.

Just as we are about to go for a referendum the rift is greatly widening as the yes team campaign has agitated for passing of draft while the no team are against the passing of the draft with out amendments.

If democracy is all about having and the respect for ones opinion and stand on issues pertaining the interests of the country why should the PM be against the Minister?

We all have diverse interests which need to be addressed and as much as everyone wants to be heard there is need for consensus between both sides of the camps.

The genesis of the difference between the PM and his Deputy Hon Ruto is clearly vested on different ideologies the two have been sharing over the past.

First it started as unfair representation of the Rift valley in the cabinet, then came the diverse scripts on the detain and trial of post election perpetrator of which the PM rooted for International Prosecutions(ICC) while Ruto called for formation of truth justice and reconciliation commission.

When the TJRC was commissioned by the President the Minister could have scored but what lied ahead resulted to a tug of war.

The forceful evictions of Mau settlers elicited another heated debate and after ahead of fund raise by Ruto and several MPs the PM was ridiculed by the MPs who attended the function.

Much as the events went by the Prime Minister suspended the Agriculture Minister and his counterpart Education Minister Prof Sam Ongeri based on allegations of involvement in the maize and free education scam.
If any thing is to go by the president later revoked the suspension and once again Ruto scoped the score.

However, the reshuffle might greatly undermined his position as a Minister as he is left with a few parastatals to run in the Ministry of Higher Education compared to the agriculture docket that holds 37 parastatals.

This time round the vocal Eldoret North MP has nothing to smile about and together with the church clerics are still holding on there no stand on the passing of the draft without amendments.

Well the Orange Democratic boss is practicing the use of cold war as it has turn out to be apolitical battle and the play ground is Rift Valley province that holds more than 4million number of registered voters.

As days go by only political analysts can predict the fate of ODM as the party has been immensely affected by the internal wrangles between the PM and Ruto.

I believe that no one sees the storm coming as the Minister should have long ago sensed his political fate. The shift which is government policy might change the political destiny of the Eldoret North MP and only the outcome of the referendum will determine it.

In the name of constitution making the PM and his Deputy have wash there dirty linens in public a rare move the two leaders have done. Kenyans are optimistic that the much awaited constitution will this time be delivered.

Just to give Kenyans anew constitution will be much better than anything else as many of them have fought for it for the last 20 years.

If the ODM party is to retain its total control of votes in the Rift Valley then its time they strategies well because the current political turmoil in the region spells doom to the party.

Only the intervention of apolitical messiah can save the two political leaders from dividing the country along tribal ethnic lines for we agitate for a free democratic society where opinion and stand of individual is respected.

cracking oof the whip

The cracking of the whip by reshuffle of the cabinet is really anew dimension in part of curtailing the opposing sides of the draft constitution.

The newly appointed assistant minister for energy i hope he would seize the chance and improve his constituency as it has never been in government for the last one decade.

Its a taste of the iceberg as the rift valley parliamentarians have vowed to shut down the draft. i believe that democracy is the rule of the people and by the people and everyone has aright to decide on what he does.

The cracking of opposing ministers is a sign of social dictatorship and abuse of the personal democracy when deciding on the general issues. lets hope change will come soon in an inevitable way.

time for new leaders

the current political turmoil on constitution leaves alot to be desired. many of our leaders are bickering on what steps to take on matters of the constitution .as part of agitating for democracy both sudes of the coin have to be considered before imposing the draft to the people.

as akenyan who desires to have the new constitution in place iam perplxed by the way our leaddres are after there self centered interests. also to hold the bull by its horns its important to come in goodterms as per the moods of the ground yani mashinani.

voting for or aganist the draft is your personal decision as long as your facts and reasons are valid with impactive asurannce for the people.
time has come for our leaders to standup and rise to the occasion.
