A letter to President elect Uhuru Kenyatta and Hon Raila Odinga






A letter to President elect Uhuru Kenyatta and Hon Raila Odinga

Peace be with you
President Uhuru Kenyatta is the president elect while Raila odinga is claiming that the 26th October Presidential elections were flawed.President Uhuru has people supporting him,while Hon Raila  Odinga has a followers who have vowed to demonstrate and some to boycott products such as safaricom lines,mpesa,oil products and some particular milk brands.Some are also calling for succession. But President elect Uhuru Kenyatta's side is not budging. When elephants fight,it is the grass which suffers most, as it is trampled on.The grass is Kenya's job market,businesses,boycott, loss of revenue, insecurity, poverty,hate,riots,damages, University closure,counties without salaries, hunger, hate, animosity,killings etc l saw a picture in church where President elect Uhuru Kenyatta and Hon Raila  Odinga are greeting one another and smilling.Do you know that your supporters cannot greet each other, let alone meet? Do you know the social media is on fire? Kenya is made up of 44 tribes who want their leaders to make peace  with one another.lf we go by our history, Kenya will not achieve desired goals.Kenya has achieved a lot so far. But with this bickering, Kenya will not attain vision 2030 nor will we be able to attain the 12 sustainable development goals? Let us not go back to 2008/9 where there was fighting and Kenyans had to live in refugee camps,lives were lost,people lost their privacy,properties were lost and families disintegrated.Mr President elect and Hon Raila Odinga, when will you preach love,peace and unity?I reiterate the  Bishop of Canterbury RT Rev Justin Welby who preached in church and both of you attended,where he urged Kenyans to reconcile and maintain peace and remain united expecially between the two of you.President elect Uhuru Kenyatta agreed with the Bishop, when will they start? One proverb says " lf you carry the egg basket do not dance" Let reconciliation come when there is justice.President elect Uhuru Kenyatta and Hon Raila  Odinga even took a group photo during the celebration of Anglican Church of Kenya's 100 years to mark the culmination of the first centenary of all saints cathedral.Am happy that both of you attended the ceremony.Let's honour the late Bishop Cornelius Korir the peacemaker during his state burial on 11th to preach and forge peace between President elect Uhuru Kenyatta and Hon Raila Odinga and to burry their hatchet during this time.Let his burial turn to be a lasting peace mission the Bishop would have done to rescue Kenya from disintegrating.Let Bishop Korir death redeem the peace which is elusive in Kenya. Let the peace which Bishop Korir used to bring to warring communities now be brought between President elect Uhuru Kenyatta and Hon Raila  Odinga.This will be Bishop Korir lifetime achievement.The county is divided into ethnic and tribal lines.Everyone is digging in and both parties have launched military wings complete with outfits.Young children have noticed that adults have political differences,that is not good for our future leaders.A Zambian proverb says " The worlds of the elders do not lock all the doors;they leave the right door open" I  hope all their right door are open.Mathews 5:24 says leave your offering there before the altar and go; first be reconciled with your brother and then come  and present your offering. I hope and pray that you will do so come on 11th during the state funeral.Because both of you will not be on the ballot come 2022 therefore, please cultivate peace and leave Kenyans united.

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

  NADHARIA ZINAZOELEZEA CHIMBUKO LA FASIHI SIMULIZI/MASIMULIZI Kazi hii tumeigawa katika sehemu tatu, ambazo ni, Utangulizi, katika sehemu hii tutatoa fasili ya nadharia na fasili ya ngano kwa mujibu wa wataalamu mbalimbali. Sehemu ya pili itakuwa ni kiini cha swali ambapo tutajikita kuzielezea nadharia mbalimbali zinazozungumzia asili ya fasihi simulizi/masimulizi kwa mujibu wa Okpewho (1992), Miruka (1994/1999) na Finnegan (1970). Na sehemu  ya mwisho ni hitimisho.   Tukianza na fasili ya Nadharia, Massamba (2009:63) anasema, nadharia ni taratibu kanuni na misingi ambayo imejengwa katika muundo wa kimawazo kwa madhumuni ya kutumiwa kama kielelezo cha kuelezea jambo. Sarantakos (1997: 9) amefasili nadharia kama jambo linalofanywa na kuthibitishwa kwa utaratibu maalum kwa njia ya utafiti kwa ajili ya kuelezea jambo fulani katika jamii. Martin E. Amini (2005:10) anasema nadharia ni jumla ya mambo yote ambayo mtafiti amekusudia kuelezea, kuchambua, kuelewa au hata kutabiri jambo f
