If you were Omondi what would you do?
Joke: Omondi and Bonyeza Ushinde cash
Posted on Tue, 27th Jan 2015
Omondi won a Bonyeza Ushinde of 1 million shillings, after claiming the money, he buried the cash at the foot of a tree, and took a picture of the tree.
He then boarded a Jambo Jet flight to Nairobi, on the plane feeling good about himself he looked at the photo and suddenly he burst into tears.
In his hands was the photo, in it there was a man smiling at the top of the tree.
If you were Omondi what would you do?

STATEMENT REGARDING THE LANG'ATA PRIMARY SCHOOL LAND GRAB
January 19, 2015.
I have learnt with extreme shock and shame that pupils of Langa’ta Road Primary School have been injured after police threw tear gas canisters at them and other well-wishers who joined them to protest the grabbing of their school’s playground.
This is brutality beyond words and greed beyond description. It is difficult to believe that police can actually deploy against primary school children and lobby tear gas at them to defend a land grabber.
This image of a nation determined to steal forcefully from its own children cannot be what we aspire to. It cannot be the legacy we want to bequeath the children.
However greedy, acquisitive and heartless we may be, we surely can stand up for the children. After all, they are the people we are guarding the nation for.
I stand with the parents, pupils and teachers of this school over this land. At the very least, I am prepared to give them the benefit of doubt that they own the land. Somebody must be held accountable for this primitive and shameful action.

David Oyelowo and Lupita Nyong'o Circling Disney's 'Queen of Katwe'
David Oyelowo and Lupita Nyong'o are in negotiations to star in Disney's Queen of Katwe, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
The story centers on a young girl from the slums of Uganda who, with the help of her coach, becomes a chess prodigy.
Mira Nair will direct the film from a script byWilliam Wheeler, who also penned the screenplay for Nair's previous film, The Reluctant Fundamentalist.
The story is based on an ESPN Magazine article and the 2012 book The Queen of Katwe: A Story of Life, Chess, and One Extraordinary Girl's Dream of Becoming a Grandmaster, both by Tim Crothers.
Oyelowo, who is traveling the awards circuit this season with his lead role as Martin Luther King Jr. in Paramount's Selma, would play the coach, Robert Katende. Oscar-winner Nyong'o would take on the role of the child's mother, Harriet Mutesi.
John Carls and Lydia Dean Pilcher will produce along with ESPN Films.
Oyelowo and Nyong'o are also both atttached to another film: Americanah, about a pair of young Nigerian immigrants.
Along with his critically praised role as Martin Luther King Jr. (for which he's nominated for a Golden Globe this weekend), Oyelowo most recently appeared in A Most Violent Year andInterstellar. He's repped by CAA, Inphenate, Hamilton Hodell and Schreck Rose.
Since winning her Oscar for her breakout role in 12 Years a Slave, Nyong'o has booked work on one of the most hotly sought after projects in Hollywood: Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens. She'll also voice a character in Disney's The Jungle Book. She's repped by CAA, D2 Management and Del, Shaw.
Nair's previous films include 2009's Amelia, 2004's Vanity Fair and 2001's Monsoon Wedding. She is repped by ICM Partners.

Controversial businessman Paul Kobia has been admitted at Aga Khan hospital after running amok.
Police say his family took him to Gigiri police station after he became violent at his Runda home. Sources say he kept saying 'I killed Fidel', claims police have dismissed.
Acting Inspector General of Police Samuel Arachi dismissed media reports claiming Kobia had been arrested.
"Mr Kobia was taken to Gigiri Police station by his family who wanted to be assisted in having him restrained and escorted to a psychiatrist after he started shouting incoherently and acting violently," Arachi said in a statement.
Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko said Kobia had claimed knowing how Fidel Odinga died.
Fidel died on Sunday morning at his Karen home. Pathologists are yet to release the cause of death.
Kobia last year threatened Cord leader Raila Odinga and told him to respect President Uhuru Kenyatta's reign.
The businessman with interests in gold is a licensed firearm holder who once attacked a business partner.

Food Poisoning Questions as Kenyans Mourn the Untimely Death of Fidel Odinga
Questions have been raised from various quarters as Raila Odinga’s family now mourn the death of Fidel Castro Odinga. Fidel died in his sleep Sunday morning after a night out with friends in various entertainment spots.
Fidel was last seen at Capital Club in the company of one Maureen Thiong’o whom he said to have dropped home. Fidel later went back to Capital Club where he stayed for a while before calling for Smart Fellas taxi services to drop him at his residence inside Bel Air County Homes gated community along Miotoni Road in Karen.
Some friends who had contact with Fidel include Fred Gumo’s son, Mayo Gumo,Robert Gichuru (son to Samuel Gichuru), Maureen Thiong’o and a Nelly Nyaga. Fidel met Tom Alila briefly at Rubicat before heading to Capital Club to meet Mabior Garang.
Fidel passed at Rubicat in the company ofBilly Yaya who is a personal friend. Fidel passed through Rubicat where he found Atwoli, Hillary Alila, Jeremiah Owiti of UoN and Tom Alila waiting for Jirongo. He wanted to know if Tom Alila was also having some food poisoning issues like him. He said that they had lunch on Friday at Rubicat and he felt serious stomach discomfort. Tom Alila told him he didn’t have any stomach upsets.
Fidel then left for Capital Club where he picked Mabior Garang and headed to Sankara with him. At Sankara they just enjoyed themselves. Mayo Gumo joined them at Sankara.
The fact that Fidel complained of food poisoning raises issues. One of the persons he was with on Friday who is also his cousin, Andrew Ojwang’, died on Saturday morning.
The body of Fidel Odinga arrived at Lee Funeral home at 1pm this evening. A team of forensic investigators and pathologists had not left Fidel Odinga’s home by 7.30pm Sunday.
Mourners will converge at Raila’s home in Karen as Luo tradition dictates.
