Your Politicians Didn’t Know What Kenya7s Won in Singapore. Here’s What They Know:



Last weekend, Kenya won the first Main Cup in the Rugby Sevens’ series and our politicians won the Most Ignorant Cup for not knowing what we won.
Forgive them.
Here’s what they know most:

Their Political Gods
Ask them the name of their political supremos and they will give you not one, two or three names but maybe ten including their primary, secondary, university and Bunge nicknames. They will even be generous to tell you their sons’, daughters’ and wives’ nicknames too.
They will go ahead to tell you what their political gods take for breakfast, lunch and dinner. What size of shoe they wear and what suit they prefer. 

Weekend Funerals
How will they not know where they will be over the weekend?
Try to look for any politician on Saturday or Sunday and you will probably find them attending some funeral back in the village.
On weekdays they are busy checking and asking around for some funeral to attend.
They are not the most condoling but these present them a perfect opportunity to hit at the rivals, chest-thump and drop crocodile tears on the graves.

Countdown to 2017 General Election
Other sport lovers may have forgotten that there are coming national elections next year but our politicians, the wannabe sports lovers, know not only the date, but also the hours, minutes and seconds remaining to the polls.
If you want to confirm this, trying shifting that date and hell will break loose. 

IEBC
Just as they know when the elections would be held, they know, in and out, who will be conducting the elections.
Some know IEBC as a bosom friend while others know it as a sworn enemy.
Still, others know each and every name of the commissioners, others don’t want to hear anything about them. 

CDF
How will they not know this?
This is the spinal cord of each of our MPs. They know the amount allocated them each and every year.
The High Court touched it last year and labelled it ‘unconstitutional’ and hell broke loose. The Judiciary was denied funds like never before in the following budget.
They have since forcefully mutated the funds to align it with the Constitution.

Hate speech
Not its meaning but how to spew it in public rallies, funerals and public barazas.
They know how to manoeuvre around the law as they call each other names, abuse rival communities and lampoon opponents. 

The Media
They know each and every media house which is sympathetic, against and friendly to them.

Five Things to Hijack for a Woman



Some lonely Egyptian decided that hijacking a plane would make that woman listen to him.
If that‘s what love is all about, then good for him. Hijack planes. Express love. Get locked. That woman gets another man. Life moves on. You rot in jail. 
Simple.    
       
But why would you target flying objects to tell on your burning love when there are simpler things you can do. 

Here are they:

First, hijack the kitchen.
Take over that hot, smoky place. Cook something in the morning, afternoon and in the evening. Banish her from it and make yourself comfortable. Tell her to stick to the dining table so she doesn’t see your terrible culinary skills. Warn her that any slight movement towards the kitchen would make you set off the bomb of spoons, forks and plates. 

 Hijack her laundry
Just go mad and get those dirty clothes of her, place it in a bucket at home and get down to washing on Saturday morning.
Tell her to sleep until late so that she doesn’t see how bad your laundry skills are. Also, warn her that any slight movement from the bedroom towards you would set off some explosion of water that would strike her face in full blast. 

Hijack her boring Friday
She was going to sit at home, bored and wondering why Fridays are so boring nowadays. Don’t let her mind to wander anymore. Take hostage of her wild thoughts. Take her out for dinner. Make her smile.

Hijack her moods
When she wakes up and the weather in her body reads 'gloomy and moody', then as her believable weatherman hijack her weather, take her to any of the metallic shops in town and get her some shiny metallic thing.

Hijack her Love
After all has been said and done, it doesn’t hurt taking hostage of her love by reciprocating with a bountiful of love. Not only on valentine but always.  

Thanks for reading.
