BREAKING SAD: Police Shoot DEAD a school in Migori

By Chris via Facebook
A school girl from Ulanda Girls attending regional ball games at Migori Boys has been shot dead by the police who were pursing an inmate who had escaped from the Migori Prisons and entered the school compound. A police officer shot at the crowd after the inmate hid it it, killing the innocent girl instantly.

There appears to be instructions from above for the police stationed within Nyanza to misuse their firearms on residents, and fire live bullets at anyone anywhere. Who will stop this increasing police impunity? This is a very unfortunate incident, the responsible police officer MUST be brought to book forthwith!!!!

HOW Female Kenyan in USA INSTIGATED deportation of 1 minute-man DJ CREME

Beauttah Okech,

The Jubilee/ Cord rivalries got a notch higher as one lady alleged to be Kamba in Dallas, reported DJ Clemo also known as George Njuguna to the US immigration authorities. DJ Creme had indicated his purpose of visiting US as tourism during the Memorial day weekend, but it turned out that CORD supporters in Dallas annoyed with the Kikuyu heavy performance lineup at a TNA function in Dallas, handed the fliers to the immigration authorities, who pounced on Njuguna a.k.a as soon as he landed at the DFW Airport.

Cord supporters blew the whistle, since they don’t like ukora. DJ Creme was on a tourist visa, but wanted to make quick buk in the US. Thats thievery, corruption, unacceptable. Nai-robbery brought to Dallas, TX.

DJ Creme is known to famous for notoriously leaking a video of him making sweet love to some bitch on social media. However most CORD supporters, who especially Kamba women supporters of Kalonzo Musyoka did not approve of DJ Creme’s struggle to take the woman to cloud 9. Creme resorted to using his middle finger to give the woman some satisfaction after his own KushMakali shrunk at the height of the action.

As I write this, DJ Creme is air-bound headed back to Nairobi. DJ Creme is rumored to have bragged how he was going to hopefully impress some American chick with his scratches, and hopefully be on the path to American Citizenship, before Trump erects The wall.

This deportation will certainly earn DJ Creme a guaranteed place as the biggest loser celebrity in Kenya in 2016. Even before he lands, this news item has gone viral. Meanwhile Cordeshians can sit back, smile, GEMA greed has been nipped at its buds! Mollis Nimeshoka, wins anytime! Mt Kenya defeated! They may run Kenya, but we run the US. Free advice TNA, keep your chicken gate scandals in Nairobi. Here in the US, we are ready to work with the Luo-lead government!

CIRCUS: Uhuru says he is Ready for DIALOGUE but through Parliament- CORD back to Drawing BOARD

President Uhuru Kenyatta has said he is ready for dialogue with the Opposition over the polls body, but maintained that he can only do so within the confines of the law.

He told business leaders that his personal presentation to the engagements, and which he would present like any other citizen, was ready. “I myself have prepared my own position which I am ready to present to them,” Mr Kenyatta said in a meeting with members of the Kenya Private Sector Alliance (Kepsa) in a round-table meeting yesterday afternoon.

He added that he was not ready for any embarrassment that would arise if he were to ask the commissioners of the Independent Electrical and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to leave office, then the directive is challenged in court.

“I am not going to ask anyone to leave office then I am embarrassed tomorrow,” said the President, who also responded to an unnamed envoy’s request that he listens to the Opposition leaders, including Raila Odinga.

Mr Kenyatta told the diplomat that there was no need to plead with him (the President) to listen to anyone, as it was his responsibility and duty to accommodate all his values.

It is back to the drawing board for CORD as Uhuru’s comments are not in good faith, by saying he is willing to negotiate within legal means the president is basically telling CORD to talk to Duale. This is a joke!

BREAKING: CORD Secretariat PUTS to SHAME Jubilee die-hard KNCH Boss Ms Kagwiria Mbogori

PRESS STATEMENT

26TH May 2016

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The attention of the coalition has been drawn to the statement issued by the Kenya national commission on human rights titled ‘DO NOT CONFUSE KENYANS: ANARCHY IS NOT DEMOCRACY’ and signed by the Chairperson of the commission Ms. Kagwiria Mbogori.

The statement condemns the CORD coalition for staging ‘street protests and demonstrations’ which in the view of the KNCHR are not a prescribed procedure of engagement in the matter that CORD is protesting about. Interestingly the statement then proceeds to recognize and refer to the constitutional “right to assemble, to demonstrate, picket and present petitions to the public authorities” and adds that it’s a right that can only be exercises when peaceful and unarmed. That the engagement in violence while exercising this right negates it. The statement then ends by putting political actors on notice not to confuse Kenyans and proceeds to state that anarchy is not democracy.

We wish to state that the KNCHR has without doubt cast aside its constitutional mandate and resorted to political propaganda and falsehoods for reasons well known to them. It is instructive to note that the statement was unilaterally authored by the chairperson without the concurrence of the other commissioners.

In its greatest heist of ignorance and selective amnesia, KNCHR falsely asserts that CORD has failed to petition the National Assembly on the removal of IEBC commissioners. To the contrary, CORD did present a petition to parliament on 28/04/2014 which petition was arbitrarily and without logical consideration dismissed by the Justice and Legal affairs committee.

It is clear that this statement is intended to undermine the citizens right to demonstrate on issues concerning them and hopefully to silence those engaging in their democratic right to demonstrate. It is also clear that the KNCHR, without any evidence whatsoever has decided to attribute and blame the violence that peaceful demonstrators have encountered to the same demonstrators. It is indeed curious that KNCHR does not in any way refer to the widely condemned violence by the police that includes fatal injury and maiming of many innocent Kenyans.

Has the KNCHR, an independent constitutional commission funded by tax payers to defend and oversee the protection of human rights become one of the agents of violations of these rights in Kenya? Has the commission now decided to play partisan politics using public resources? We demand that the KNCHR accounts for its statement and the assumptions made therein.

Has commission done its investigations to determine that the violence that has been going on was planned and instigated by the CORD demonstrators?

Has commission investigated the role of the police in the violence relating to these demonstrations?

What has the commission done to hold the IEBC accountable to putting in place the framework to address all the anomalies associated with the 2013 elections including the tampering with registers, the facilitation of the right to vote and the tampering with the BVR equipment? Has the KNCHR even bothered to issue any statement on the human rights perspectives on these matters? Was KNCHR in this country when the Smith and Ouzman directors were convicted of the crime of offering bribes to the Kenyan electoral body officials including the chairman of the IEBC? Did the commission pronounce itself on the need for all those who were mentioned to step aside to facilitate investigations before they continue serving in office? Is that not a matter of good governance that is purportedly part of the commission’s mandate?

While busy issuing these obnoxious statements, KNCHR is clearly abdicating its constitutional mandate as set out under Art.59. KNCHR continues to maintain ignominious silence in the face of police brutality against innocent protesters choosing instead to engage in academic lectures on processes and rumor mongering that have absolutely nothing to do with their mandate.

The commission is clearly out of depth as far as its core mandate is concerned. The foundational principles of our constitution embody proper mechanisms that justify the use of demonstrations as an exercise of sovereignty. It is shocking that the very commission that is vested with the mandate to safeguard and facilitate the enjoyment of rights is busy erecting claw backs using flimsy political excuses nicely coated in empty legal jingoism.

Indeed, within a system which denies the existence of basic human rights, fear tends to be the order of the day. We wish to remind KNCHR that the most insidious form of fear is that which masquerades as common sense or even wisdom, condemning as foolish, reckless, insignificant or futile the small, daily acts of courage which help to preserve man’s self-respect and inherent human dignity. One cannot fail to notice the inconsistency of those rejecting human rights (KNCHR): their rejection takes place in the public square created by human rights. It is difficult to reject human rights without using them.

KNCHR is beckoning us to see the world through a one-way mirror; however we remain aware of the fact that human rights were not handed down as privileges from a parliament, or a boardroom, or an institution.

Lost rights are never regained by appeals to the conscience of the usurpers. As a coalition, we remain steadfast in our quest to eject IEBC from office through a peaceful exercise of our rights.

Norman Magaya
Chief Executive Officer

WHY CORD’s TACTICAL Retreat from Weekly Anti-IEBC PROTESTS is Christmas for Jubilee

CORD’S TACTICAL MESSAGING FAUX PAS

By Jackson Omondi

It’s hard enough to rally beleaguered troops around a cause, but to suddenly order a gelling team to stand down midstream is a political messaging blunder that may take a miracle to revive.

The IEBC protesters were within striking distance, the county surrogates were in sync with the national apparatus, the reform crusaders were on message and the government was on the verge of giving in to pressure.

And then the drivers, inexplicably, stepped on the breaks much to the chagrin of those who bore the brunt of the state machinery! The government, in a desperate move, resorted to killing and beating the socks out of everyone in sight. And when that didn’t work, they went Hollywood on Kenyans by parading supposedly “battered” cops in full view of the press.

The fact that a presidential communique was disseminated with the ‘C-word’ (coupe’)in it, is a clear indication that the government was in panic mode. How on earth can a government that proudly saturates all law enforcement units and the country’s defense forces with one tribe be so scared of a coalition led by individuals whose security details are at its beck and call?

It’s also a matter of public knowledge that CORD leaders, repeatedly contend with withdrawal of security detail assigned to them. It’s therefore hard to fathom that a coalition thus beleaguered, is capable of pulling off a coupe d’etat.

This simply means that the government’s political operatives had no answer to what they were confronting on a weekly basis and decided to mine a good old strategy of engaging in ethnic-bating.

They knew that their supporters largely come from one community and if they talked about an alleged coupe, guess which community will feel threatened and buy into the notion that ‘their’ government is about to be overthrown and then to a man, rally behind it?

The initial GEMA business outfit initiative that weighed in on the protests fell flat because it appeared deliberate and overtly tribal. Talking about a potential coupe’ ostensibly puts the ‘government’ at risk and gets instant sympathy from its supporters.

And that is why the order to cancel the protests was a major blunder. You don’t have to be Einstein to predict the outcome of the so called dialogue because Jubilee has never attempted to talk to CORD about any issue. There is simply no precedent to go by. At least Moi allowed dialogue and IPPG was born. Kibaki, on occasion, allowed dialogue on some issues of national significance. Jubilee has always used the belaboured tyranny of numbers as a political scarecrow and they are not about to ‘fix’ what they deem to be perfectly functional.

By stopping the protests a few strides away from crescendo, CORD has given Jubilee much needed relief and more time to plot more political manoeuvres aimed at ducking real reforms.

And it came at a hefty price by way of human lives, crippling injuries and a demoralized rank and file who will need divine intervention to even think about reigniting the lost mojo. Need proof? Just log on to Facebook.

BREAKING: High Court Judges DECLARES Uhuru POWERLESS in Appointing Chief Justice

The High Court has declared an amendment seeking to give the president an upper hand in deciding country’s next CJ null and void .

The declaration limits President Uhuru Kenyatta’s power to appoint the CJ as provided by the constitution.

The amendment sought to change the Judicial Service Act to compel JSC to forward three names to the president, instead of one as previously required.

But the effect of the ruling by five-judge bench is that Judiciary Service Commission will only submit a single candidate each for appointment to the position of Chief Justice and Deputy Chief Justice .

This comes after LSK sought to challenge the decision to give the president power for the appointment.

Lawyers opposed the move saying it goes against the constitution and amounts to interference with the independence of the judiciary.

Making the ruling on Thursday, the judges noted that in passing the new law, Parliament contravened the constitution and gave the president powers he did not have through back doors.

The judges include Richard Mwongo, Joseph Onguto, Mumbi Ngugi, George Odunga, Weldon Korir, and Isaac Lenaola.
