Lamu hotel let Kenya's tourism industry down

Lamu hotel let Kenya's tourism industry down

Image result for PICTURE OF TOURIST IN KENYA

I read with consternation that a tourist went to a Lamu horel and found out that it was dirty and checked out very late at night and police had to be called to assist her and maybe look for a better hotel for her.lf the allegations against this hotel are true,it is sad indeed. Kenya is always on the run to welcome and showcase what is good for tourism both domestic and international tourist. I recall when the C S went abroad for a marketing tour of Kenya and also Kenya as a country had sent employees to attended very many exhibitions promoting Kenya as a country and inviting tourist so that they can bring in the much needed foreign exchange as possible. But for a hotel in Lamu to be portrayed as dirty by a visitor is something l cannot fathom. What action has the tourist organization in Kenya done to change the image? What action has the county government done. A good recommendations by that tourist can bring in more tourist and visitors or destroy Kenya's image. Let those organizations concerned with tourists in Kenya call for a meeting to iron out these issues so that hotels in Kenya and especially Lamu do not give such a bad image in future and as being termed as dirty again. l recall "Them mushroom band  song " Jambo jambo bwana habari gani muzuri sana.Wageni wakaribishwa Kenya yetu hakuna matata" Let Kenya respect visitors especially tourists and not to drink wine and preach water.

Methali, Vitendawili, nahau, misemo,

  Kiswahili: Methali, Vitendawili, nahau, misemo, Ada ya mja hunena, mwungwana ni kitendo. It is customary for a slave to talk, but a free man acts. (Mja is only used in this way in this proverb, otherwise it would be - a foreigner) Adhabu ya kaburi, aijua maiti.  The torture of the grave is known only to the dead. (The one who wears the shoes knows where they pinch.One who has personally experienced poverty, need and suffering, knows how difficult life can be.)  Afua ni mbili, kufa na kupona.  Deliverance(from ill luck or disaster) is of two kinds, to die or to get better(live).  Afugaye ng’ombe tume, mwenye maziwa la kujaza. He who keeps a healthy cow will have plenty of milk.(If you are diligent, you will enjoy the fruit of your labour.) Ahadi ni deni. A promise is a debt.(A promise is binding. A trustworthy person keeps his word.)  Aibu ya maiti, aijua mwosha. The real shame of the dead is only known by the Moritician. (No man is a hero to his wife.You get to know the weak aspects
