Hello Mr. Principal,

I hope this letter finds you well, though I doubt it will.
See, I was supposed to report back today Monday. With chalk dust on my cuffs and a smile on my face.

But I won’t be coming.
Not because I’m sick.
Not because I quit.
But because I died,
In the hands of those who swore to protect me.

I went home to Homabay.
Just to greet my mother, feel the village breeze, and remember who I was before lesson plans and school bells.
But they came for me.
Not thieves.
Not bandits.
But men with badges.

They said, "Come with us, just a small matter to discuss."
But their vehicle roared like war.
Their mission had no mercy.
They didn’t come to ask.
They came to silence.

They say I hit the wall.
They say I confessed with my skull.
But you and I know, walls don’t kill unless hands help them.
I died in a cell, Mr. Principal.
And not even a whiteboard was left to tell my side of the story.

My only weapon?
A keyboard.
My only sin?
Telling the truth in a country that fears it.

So tell the students not to wait for me.
Tell them that Mr. Alberto won’t be back.
Not because he failed them.
But because this country failed him.

From now on, I’ll be marking papers in silence.
Six feet under. While justice plays hide and seek above ground.

Sad indeed😭😭😭

Without contempt Let me address Eliud Owalo Owalo

I don't like hypocrisy.I also don't like people who have fake love like Eliud Owalo. Let's call a spade a spade. Arek was not sick.So it's either his sudden death is suicidal or accident. many people allegedly say that the gentleman's death is suicidal. I'm not government pathologist. And I won't delve into that. But I ask God to let his soul rest in peace.

some facts on the ground is we can't claim we only love people when they are dead.Mr. Owalo, you have let the youngman down. As a minister you had all the opportunities to employ Mr. Arek and any other person around you in any capacity. As a cabinet Minister you were very well positioned to help him get a job. Any job in your Ministry or another ministry. But give Jaluoooo small power. But you promised him forever until you were relieved from duty.

As the deputy head of public service, the office which employes people, office which advertises 80,000 jobs every year. You mean you couldn't even get him a slot at affordable housing? Or even in your office? Surely.

Now you think removing his body from bondo to Aga Khan will clean your dirty consciousness. Rather than changing Arek's life. What you did was to change him mortuary and ordered your cameraman to take pictures.The fact remains that, you are contributed into elusive elevation of his expectations and dropped him to zero.

But that is how most Luo leaders are.They are always control freaks. In their office their desire for control goes beyond. Someone tells Owalo that we know the truth. He can't hide it. He can't pretend to show fake Love when Ken Arek is dead to clean his mind.

Eliud you ought to have Helped Arek when he was alive. Not when he is dead. Dead people don't see but we do.We can see deceit and malice to seek public sympathy.
Let's these goes to other Luo leaders who used to use youths without any support.

US Senator Roberts called his wife before leaving office, telling her that he was bringing two colleagues home after work.
He asked her to put away all the "Made in China" stuff at home to avoid being accused of not cooperating with Trump.

When he arrived with his guests, he saw that the door was gone, the windows were gone, and all the appliances, furniture and decorations in the house were all gone. His guests were shocked.

However the guests were thrilled when his wife came out to greet them, completely naked.

*Political Betrayals of the Kikuyu People.*
Before independence, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga was the favourite to be the first president of the New Republic of Kenya . Instead of being greedy , he decided to ask for the unthinkable from the Colonialists the unconditional release of detainee Mzee Kenyatta whom he believed was the right person to lead the nation . Two years latter, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga was seriously betrayed by Kenyatta administration. He was forced to be on a house arrest most of his life . What followed were bizarre killings in the nation.

In his sunset days of early 1990s with the imminent introduction of multiparty democracy in Kenya, the same Kikuyus through Paul Muite ,Kenneth Matiba and Charles Rubia approached Jaramogi Odinga for a merger that they claimed that would be an apologetic statement for their betrayal during the Kenyattta administration, the group unanimously agreed to back Jaramogi as the sole presidential candidate for the first Multiparty elections In 1992 . The spirits were high , Jaramogi was ridding and was sure of victory. In the next year , most of the opposition players were arrested with Kenneth Matiba falling sick and being admitted in a London Hospital. At the hospital , a few Kikuyu power players visited him and convinced him to change his mind and go for the presidency in that election . Matiba greedily lead the 2nd betrayal and went as a presidential candidate ,the result was sealed . President Moi was elected as the president . Jaramogi count bear the pain anymore , coupled with old age. Mzee departed us a year latter.
In 2002 , against all odds ,here. Comes Baba and the *Kibaki Tosha* declzration with Gidi Gidi Maji Maji spicing it up with the mighty *Unbuogable*hit song . Baba rallied the whole nation behind Mwai Kibaki , a candidate from the Kikuyu Land . Even when the then government attempted his life , Raila stood strong , smuggled Kibaki out of the country when in critically injured for treatment abroad . Baba continued to campaign for Kibaki throughout in 2002 , he made sure no one felt the absence of their candidate. This resulted in a resounding victory for the National Rainbow Coalition candidate . However a few months later, the likes of Kiraitu Murungi , Martha Karua , Muiraria and all the Mt Kenya handlers around Kobaki blocked Baba . That was a third betrayal .
Whatever happened in 2007 is still fresh and painful then comes the 2022 election . This election reminds me of an incident in 2013 when a Runnig mate one Jeremiah Kioni could not even cast his vote for One Musalia Mudavadi . The shame was when Mudavadi hot zero votes in the same poling center that his loyal and honest running mate cast his vote. The same Jeremia Kioni was one of the lead supporters of Raila in 2022 and we all know ow how Baba fared on in Central Kenya. Now he's fronting Matiang'i. We already know know the results.
Gachagua courting Raila for a plastic support in 2027 is like trying to dangle a live fish as a baite. Baba should be very careful. There is no genuine support that can come from the central people. They're never honest

MY THOUGHTS ON THE KELLY MADADA INTERVIEW

AFC Leopards’ current midfield sensation, Kelly Madada, recently gave what appeared to be a ‘vox pop’ style post-match interview, which has since gone viral. (I’m unsure of the exact timing of the recording.)

During the interview, he was asked which players he would like to one day play alongside. He mentioned Alphonse Omija, Austin Odhiambo, and a third player, presumably the want-away Rooney Onyango — all of whom are from AFC Leopards’ arch-rivals, Gor Mahia FC.

However, the key moment came towards the end when the journalist asked Kelly if he would ever consider playing for Gor Mahia.

Caught off guard, Kelly gave a somewhat non-committal response, saying something like, “When the right time comes, it could happen.”

This remark sparked outrage among some AFC Leopards fans, who didn’t take kindly to his answer. The discussion raged for much of the day, with some media colleagues siding with the club, even suggesting it was unethical for the interviewer to approach the player without prior consent from the club.

While there’s a kernel of truth in the ethics debate, I don’t think the situation boils down to a question of ethics. It’s more about administrative procedure, which, depending on the context, may or may not have been followed. But I don’t believe this constitutes ethical misconduct.

Had the player been coerced into giving the interview, or if his comments were edited or misrepresented, then we’d be discussing ethics. But as it stands, this seems more like a lapse in judgment on the player’s part.

If the rule you’re referring to is indeed in his contract, and he still agreed to the interview, that’s a misstep on his part, not the reporter’s.

Journalists are in the business of gathering and disseminating news, and when you’re a rising star like Kelly Madada, it’s unlikely you’d refuse an interview if granted.

Players should not be discouraged from engaging with the media to cover up for the lack of proper media training. This is something the Players Association and, or their respective clubs’ media teams should be addressing to better sensitize players.

Ultimately, I don’t see this as a ‘treasonous’ mistake deserving of all the online backlash. To me, it’s simply a case of a young player lacking media literacy, like someone who doesn’t yet fully grasp what to say, when, and why.

My argument is premised on the fact that the biggest revenue earner for football worldwide is the sale of media rights, an invaluable asset which stem from what is referred to as the ‘player’s image rights’.

It is, therefore, a no-brainer that, there’s an undeniable symbiotic relationship between sports and the media. Consequently, Sportspeople in general can’t live in isolation forever for fear of offending their employer’s feelings. They just need to be equipped with the right knowledge on how to manage their relationship with the media, and that’s all I can pick out from this whole Kelly Madada saga.

That’s all from behind my lens, now that I don’t have a desk😁😁😁😁🚩🏳️📌.

Senator Onyonka: The Way It Is Looking Now, the Political Class Is Fighting the Kenyan People.

" Times and reality have changed but my reality as a politician has not changed. The people and events have also changed.
I hear people talking about this young men want to overthrow the government; if you govern well nobody will want to overthrow you.
We have a country where resources are being stolen, where the leadership class doesn't care, where our medical services are not being provided."~ Kisii Senator Richard Onyonka.
