I am proposing a new name for
KENYA just to reflect who her true
owners are because it has just
been confirmed that the MAFIA
have a country whose name is
KENYA. So, why not rename The
Republic of KENYA, MAFIASTAN?
If you guessed the meaning of the
suffix –stan, you’re correct. The
suffix –stan is Persian and Urdu
for “place of,” or “where one
stands.” It is found in the names
of seven countries: Afghanistan,
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and
Uzbekistan. [ 202 more words. ]
