The upcoming presidential elections in Kenya have sparked various discussions, with one crucial question being whether women will vote for Raila Odinga and Martha Karua's ticket. According to David Kiptum, many women may not support Karua, who has a chance of becoming the first Kenyan female Deputy President, and instead vote for their fellow woman.
Prof Sam Chege, on the other hand, is impressed by Karua's energy and focus but has a concern. He believes that she needs to smile more during her interactions with would-be voters on the campaign trail, as she often appears uptight and tense.
Bungoma resident Graham Girvan has also weighed in on the discussion, disagreeing with fellow mzungu Bruce Garrity's claim that there is a Kenyan tradition of conning wazungu. Girvan suggests that if one is not happy with the price quoted, they should query it, rather than complaining.
Meanwhile, A. Dave from Kisumu has been waiting for several weeks for his electricity connection to be resolved, despite paying all the required fees and levies. He is seeking assistance from Kenya Power to resolve this matter.
Interior CS Fred Matiang'i has also made an interesting comment, stating that it is the accountants who cook books, denying the government revenue. However, mama mboga, who uses books to light cooking fires, suffers when books are cooked.
