What have churches got to do with Rogo killing?


By Njoroge Kinuthia
What have churches got to do with Rogo killing?
Who killed Sheihk Aboud Mohammed Rogo? Whoever did it, PointBlank is almost certain of one thing: The Church had nothing to do with it. Sadly, within hours of the Muslim cleric’s killing on Monday three churches had been attacked by angry protestors.
The protestors’ anger at the killing of their cleric is understandable. PointBlank doesn’t support extra-judicial killings and is mad as well. But, pray, why the blind, misdirected rage against innocent people?
devious plan
Notably, since our soldiers entered Somalia, there have been deliberate efforts by Al Shabaab sympathisers to pit Christians against Muslims mostly through attacks on churches. Fortunately, this has failed, thanks to Christian and Muslim leaders who have seen through the the devious plot and steered their flock in the right path.
It’s likely that Al Shabaab will  exploit the killing of Rogo and try once again to drive a wedge between Christins and Muslims. Kenyans must be inteligent and avoid going the Nigeria way for if  we do, we will all surely end up in hell fire.

Water firm’s taps forget to do their job
Mr Simon Kamau is a frustrated resident of Kisauni Road, Nairobi West. His frustration, however, has got nothing to do with his neighbourhood. It has everything to do with Nairobi Water Company’s taps that have forgotten to do their job.
Since August 21, the taps have not issued even one drop of water. And it is not his house alone that the taps have run dry. All those who live around Nairobi West Hospital are a thirsty lot.
Consequently, water vendors are working hard to succeedwhere Nairobi Water has failed, supplying the commodity with  tankers and push carts. But Simon Kamau and his neighbours don’t like the water vendors much and that’s why they want the Nairobi Water to feed the taps again. He can reached at gazapio@yahoo.com.
Another city resident, Wycliffe Omido is also unhappy with the water company. The firm, he says, connected water to his house in January 2006 but without any good reason, stopped the flow  only six months later. “I want my water back now however dirty,”  he demands. He can be contacted on 0721209984.
Mr Joseph Mathenge, is no longer a proud resident of Nyahururu. The town, he laments, “is not what it use to be”.
He claims anyone who ever visited Nyahururu during its heydays “when it was famous and beautiful” would be shocked by its new ugly face.
“The town is observably dirty and literally the road network has collapsed,” he reports. 
When it rains, for instance, one must wear gumboots to wade through “lake-sized” swamps of murky and muddy waters along the town’s main streets of Koinange and Hospital roads.
When it is sunny, he advises  for those allergic to dust to wear masks while in the town.
But this decay doesn’t make Nyahururu less important. It is still the gateway to Samburu and Turkana. It also still hosts the world famous Thomson’s Falls and has produced some of the finest Kenyan and global runners in the late Samuel Kamau Wanjiru and John Ngugi.
deserve better
Yet the local municipal council and the Kenya Urban Roads Authority don’t seem to care about its sorry state. “Residents of this town deserve better,” he says. Do they really Nyahururu council and Kura?

Easy way to ‘Chota chapaa’
Coca Cola customer Onesmus Zakayo has been drinking a lot of the company’s popular beverage of late in the hope that he would chota chapaa in the process. But after trying for long in vain, he is convinced that he will never win a cent in the ongoing competition. And now he knows why. Recently, he came across a shopkeeper peeking into an unopened, inverted soda bottles in a bid to pick out the winning ones. Mr Zakayo tried the trick and discovered that writings were indeed visible. He now wants the competition stopped because, at this rate, he will never win. He can be contacted on 0733921896.
DON’T YOU FORGET
Customer still waiting for KP to fulfil its promise
On July 5, last year, Kenya Power customer, David, Account number 3026800-01 of Banque Villa estate off-Likoni Road, South B, wrote to Kenya Power seeking compensation for his equipment, which was damaged by power fluctuation.
Kenya Power responded on July 12, last year, and promised that it would look into the matter. Kenbright Insurance Brokers Ltd, he was informed, would communicate with him.
“Kenya Power technical assessors visited my house, but there has not been any progress since then,” he complained then.
And he asked: “Can Kenya Power explain what is happening or simply say for how long shall I wait?” David’s mobile number is 0733709303.

  1. After application the hair is simply dried, either naturally or
    using a drier. Before you go for them, try products at Keranique for
    hair care. A well groomed woman will look to her hair and
    makeup first and a poll of 3,000 females across the UK revealed that about 44% feel attractive if they are having a good hair day, this compares to 16% who felt pleased with their appearance if good teeth gave them that winning smile.
