DIVERTS or COINCIDENCE?
Between March 8th and 9th
2012,
The Kenyan Government
was
facing a major crisis. Parliament
had exposed a major
scandal in
the manipulation of the
shilling,
where a few banks, (and possibly
some well connected
individuals)
made tens of billions. Just as
the
public started absorbing the
news, a major Grenade
attack
takes place in Machakos Bus
Station on March 10.
Attention was diverted from the
Central Bank of Kenya (CBK)...
Shilling Scandal, and
Kenyans
quickly forgot the Shilling
Scandal.

In connection to that, Between May 25 and 27, KTN Tv runs
a series exposing the rot in
the
Kenyan security system,
and deep state house connection. On May
28, a
blast goes off. Attention is
quickly
diverted from the Jicho
Pevu (KTN Tv programme) expose to the blast.

Someone help
me.
Is this a mere
coincidence or
someone is playing games
with Kenyans?'

Concerned Tanzanian!

Poleni sana Mr. Kabaridi na Wakenya wote, mkuu katika mawazo yangu Mungiki na MRC hawana ujuzi wa kutengeneza milipuko ya magnitude kama hiyo mkuu, mimi niliposikia kwamba Al-Shabab wameungana na Al-khaida (I am not sure of the spelling) basi nakajua raia wa Africa Mashariki tumekwisha! Al-Khaida ni watu mahili sana katika utengenezaji wa mabomu ya kutisha, sitashangaa kama wanaweza kuwa wanatumia SEMTEX ambayo ni hatari kweli kweli.

Cha muhimu hapa ni wote kuwa macho sana na jamaa hawa, alafu nilikuwa nataka kuwapa tahadhali Majirani zetu kwamba-ikitokea mlipuko watu wasiende kushudia wachieni ma experts wa milipuko wa-deal na matukio hayo, nalisema hili kwa sababu seasoned terrorists huwa na mbuni za kulipua bomu la kwanza lisilo na nguvu sana, alafu baadae wakati watu wamekusanyika wengi kuangalia tukio pakiwepo viongozi na watu wa usalama - basi terrorist wanatumia mwanya huo kulipua bomu kubwa zaidi lililofichwa within the same area kwa kutumia simu ya mkononi na kuleta madhala makubwa sana - so please be dead careful. Alafu kitu kingine kilicho nishangaza ni pale Laila aliposema wataweka CCTV mji mzima wa Nairobi! Hakupashwa kusema kitu kama hicho hadhalani, Serikali ingepashwa kuweka CCTV kimya kimya bila ya kueleza mtu yeyote for security reasons.

La mwisho nawashauri msianze mambo ya kulaumiana kwa kutaja makabila fulani kwamba ndio wanahusika na milipuko hiyo, kumbuka hili ni janga la Africa Mashariki hakuna ambaye yuko safe, walianza Uganda wamekuja Kenya who will be next? Cha muhimu ni Serikali zetu za Afrika Mashariki ku-marshall effort zetu zote ku-contain kikundi hiki hatari. Poleni sana jamani.

NO POWER FAULT

Kenya Power, the country's sole electricity distributor, says initial investigations have ruled out any electrical malfunction.

In a statement, the company said:

"A rapid response technical team from Kenya Power visited the premises upon learning of the incident and found out the following:

  • The affected building has no ground mounted transformer inside it or outside that would explode
  • The team found all the electrical connections to the building including the cutouts (fuses) on the Kenya Power side that would otherwise blow in the event of a short circuit inside the building intact
  • On the Kenya Power network that supplies the general area, no protective devices operated. Protective devices would switch off power network to prevent a fault in a premises, such as the affected building from coming back into the rest of the network."
It concluded that it was "therefore not possible that the explosion was caused by an electricity fault".

[h=1]Witness in Kenya blast blames bearded man[/h]Speaking to The Associated Press from a Nairobi hospital bed, Irene Wachira said a bearded man came to a nearby stall three times and acted as if he were interested in buying something. Wachira said the third time he came with a bag that he left behind. The blast occurred shortly afterward, she said.


Wachira, a vendor in the building, described the man as "Arabic-looking" because of his relatively light skin.

A doctor told AP that another person wounded in the blast said a Somali-looking man left behind the bag. The doctor said he could not be quoted by name.

Serikali ya Kenya inatia aibu, mabomu zaidi ya matano katika kipindi cha miezi mitano! Labda 4G ($ 500 millions) internet itasaidia kuwakamata hawa majangili
 

La msingi nikuwa hapa Kenya, watu wana tamaa ya hundi nono kutoka Uarabuni/gulf states. Utakuta idara za uhamiaji, ndo hawa kwa tamaa za hundi, wanaruhusu watu kutoka ulaya na sehemu zingine kuingia nchini eti wawekezaji, huku mtu ni alqaeda. Tamaa mafisadi zinawala wenyewe bila kukagua mtu alivyo. Kama umefanya uchunguzi kwa kina katika historia jinsi magaidi wa taliban na alqaeda walivobalkanize milima za Afghanistan huku serikali ikishindwa kuwazuia. Waliachwa wakaeneza ugaidi wao huku agenti wa usalama wakichelewa kuwaondoa mapema. Na ugaidi wao Afganistan ukashamiri mpaka irreversible levels na wengine wameingia Nchini Mali. Same case na Afrika Mashariki vita hivi vishaanza. Tulichelewa hata kuchukua hatua mapema. Hakuna cha kurudi nyuma. Lazima state agents wakae macho vita viendelee. Watafute magaidi wanamoishi

Lingine la msingi Polisi kenya hawana njia mwafaka za kuzuia haya milipuko. We have a very strong defence forces lakini Police wing imejawa na incompetent people ambao ndio inazuia reforms. Formations zao zimejaa watu ambao hawana mafunzo bora. Ikiwa wanataka kufaulu lazima waweze ku-tug pamoja. Hilo tatizo la reforms ikitiliwa mkazo ndipo kutakuwa na kupumua la sivyo.

Here we go again...the blood is not even dry yet and the schadenfreude is already beginning to manifest itself here. I'd like to say that I am surprised but i'm not really! I'm sure "supermod" won't have anything to say here though!
 
this are the small issues that make kenya vulnerable to propaganda
 

Mkuu Askari Kanzu,
Asante kwa kutupatia habari za kina zinazowasibu jirani zetu na pia pole zao wananchi wa Kenya hizo ni kadhia za OPERESHENI LINDA NCHI.

Let's put emotion aside for a minute, there is nothing wrong with what I have stipulated. The number one job of any government is to defend and protect its citizens. The government of Kenya has let Wanachi down, and fankly speaking, it has shown abysmal failure and incompetence in performing it's number one duty. Jamani, we are talking about people's properties and lives here! What is the logic behind of having a government then?

Mkuu Rufiji, hold your fire please.
 
Ughaidi tu, hadi tusilimu wote ndo tutakuwa salama ili tubakie na vita ya wasuni na washia. Bahati mbaya nazo zina kujitoa mhanga sasa tufanye nini? Kuwa na sharia si suluhisho maana Iran na Syria zipo, kusilimu wote si suluhisho maana Iraq walikuwa karibu wenyewe tu... uh afadhali kuhamia kwenye sayari ya mars labda itachukua muda huko kabla ya kuanza dini
 
Sasa, they are just arguing! Odinga is saying terrorists are the culprits. On the other hand, Kenya's police chief said electrical fault is to blame. And to make the matter even worse, Kenya power company is asking what electrical fault? These exchanges summarize everything that one needs to know about Majirani zetu. Everyone is salivating for fifteen minutes of fame; instead, of looking on ways to confront this monster.
 

I dony deny that that's the case but don't castigate us unless you've been in the same situation and handled it better.
