Eugene Ludovic WamalwaPARTY: Party of National Unity

Eugene Ludovic Wamalwa was born on 1st April, 1969. Wamalwa was elected to represent Saboti constituency in the National Assembly of Kenya since the Kenyan parliamentary election, 2007. The death of his brother and vice president Michael Wamalwa Kijana in 2003 vacated the Saboti MP seat. In the following by-elections, Eugene Wamalwa vied for the seat under little known Republican Party of Kenya (RPK). The by-election was won by Davies Wafula Nakitare of NARC. He again contested the Saboti parliamentary seat on a Ford Kenya ticket under the PNU umbrella in 2007 and won. He has now shown interest as a candidate in the 2013 presidential elections. In 26 March 2012, President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga reshuffled the Cabinet appointing Eugene Wamalwa to be the Minister of Justice, National Cohesion & ConstitutionalAffairs.

George Luchiri WajackoyahParty: Shake the tree movement

He was born on October 24, 1959 in Mumias. He lived his early life in strife and when his parents divorced and his father remarried, Wajackoyah was unwanted and therefore decided to leave home at the age of sixteen so as to fend for

himself. That is when he ran away to Nairobi, almost five hundred miles from the village, in search of greener pastures. Since he had no particular place to run to he joined the street children. Fortunately he was rescued from the streets by Hare Krishna and was later offered a chance to pursue his secondary education at City Hall High School. After finishing his O’ levels, he joined St. Peter’s Mumia’s Boys High school where he sat for his A’ levels. George later joined the police as a recruit constable after completing school and steadily rose up the ladder to Inspectorate rank within a short time. However, things changed for him When Kenya’s foreign minister, Robert Ouko, was assassinated in 1990. Wajackoyah was placed in charge of collecting intelligence on suspected killers. George’s inquisitiveness led to his arrest, subsequent detention and severe torture. Fortunately, Wajackoyah received political asylum in the United Kingdom, where he put himself through law school by working as a gravedigger by day and a security guard by night. He is currently an adjunct professor of law at the American Heritage University of Southern California. George has expressed his intentions to run for the top seat at the 2013 presidential elections in Kenya. He believes that his vast exposure, experience, education and networks will give him an added advantage to his quest for the presidency.

FEP Group chairman Architect John Kithaka sharing the FEP vision of creating billionaires in Kenya

73 of the shareholders own one share each with the nominal market value of Ksh400,000 but the investors have paid between Ksh400,000 and to Ksh786,000 per share. In 2016, these shareholders will be worth Ksh600 million each. The second group of investors made up of 1,237 shareholders invested between Ksh200,000 to Ksh463,000 per share with nominal who will be worth Ksh200 million shares. FEP is currently inviting the third group of investors to buy shares at

a nominal value of Ksh200,000 each which will be worth Ksh30 million come 2016.

The share capital of FEP is expected to be Ksh291.2 billion in 2016 before the bank lists in Kenya Stock Exchange Market. This will be much more than the capital value of the 45 banks in Kenya whose value as of 2010 was Ksh196.25 billion as reported by Central bank and World Bank reports. FEP bank will therefore be about 1 ½ times bigger than all existing banks in Kenya come 2016.

To explain his vision for FEP’s growth, the speakers cited Facebook’s exponential growth based on its growth from nothing to a US$60 billion today, about Ksh5 trillion. Those that have achieved great success have created unique models that have grown their profitability so fast. Whereas the unique system of FEP remains a mystery, we can surely say any idea has potential. FEP bank will focus on banking business revenue in loans Micro Finance small loans for Small & Medium Enterprises (SME’s), Business loans for large companies operations & products such as mortgages for property & housing products.

FEP Group business model is based on the “The Power of Many” which entails main investors and many investment opportunities. Whichever model FEP may be using one thing is for sure if they succeed toward having a revenue base that can be valued by others during each split to grow the original Kshs 1 billion to become a Kshs 350 billion Share Capital an average growth of 350 times per shilling invested in 4 years, then a new banking model will have been created for the world to adopt.

Dual Citizenship & regaining of Kenyan CitizenshipLegal Interpretation of Articles 14 (1), (2) & (5) of the Constitution

Watch video @ http://goo.gl/vzjyH

Following enquiries with regard to the legal interpretation specifically on the issues surrounding citizenship by birth, loss of citizenship and regaining citizenship it is clarified as follows:

1. A person born of a Kenyan parent, irrespective of the place of birth automatically becomes a citizen of Kenya by birth.

2. The Constitution confers automatic recognition to persons holding citizenship of other countries as citizens of Kenya by birth as long as they are able to prove parentage as aforestated - (National identification cards, Passports).

3. Kenya citizens by birth who wish to hold citizenship of other countries which do not allow dual citizenship may voluntarily renounce and would be entitled UPON APPLICATION to regain their Kenyans citizenship.

4. Kenya citizens by birth who ceased to be citizens of Kenya by voluntarily acquiring the citizenship of other countries and renouncing the citizenship of Kenya in accordance with the repealed Constitution may regain citizenship UPON APPLICATION in the prescribed manner.

5. The persons who enjoyed dual citizenship but who by virtue of the repealed Constitution renounced or lost their Kenyan citizenship upon attainment of the age of Twenty Three (23) years should automatically be deemed citizens by birth.

The necessary applications forms will be made available in due course for those who may have lost their citizenship status

as stated above in order for them to fill and regain Kenya citizenship. Similarly, the forms for voluntary renunciation shall be made available in due course for those who may desire to have them.

Immigration Minister Otieno Kajwang’ talking about dual citizenship

Kenyan citizens who hold dual citizenship should be exempted from visa requirements irrespective of the passport held (Kenyan or otherwise).

The Kenya Citizenship and Immigration Act which implements Chapter 3 of the Constitution commenced on 30th August 2011 effectively repealing the Kenya Citizenship Act Cap. 170, the Immigration Act Cap. 172 and the Aliens Restriction Act Cap.173 Laws of Kenya.

He stated that, “given Kenya’s economic situation, the discovery of oil has enormous potential to help but it has significant potential to hinder. I think we’ve got to be very cautious and very mature about how to proceed”.

Dr. Leakey argued that to prevent civil war and problems

in the area, the powers that be should recognise that people have a right to some development funds from this oil. The government and drilling companies should consider the environmental impact by considering issues such as possible oil spills from broken pipes. “I have seen nothing that has persuaded me at the moment that the government has adequate contingency plans. Civil societies, NGOs, public opinion have really got to put the pressure on the Kenyan government to pull together some policies that have been tested elsewhere and give us a better chance to avoid the terrible mistakes that have been made elsewhere”.

While speaking at Strathmore University in Nairobi, Prof

Collier stressed that if Kenya wanted to avoid the mistakes made by Nigeria after it discovered oil in the 1970s, the country needed to take a series of steps to protect income for future generations. He cited three key areas where action was needed: The government should put rules in place to ensure sound economic decision making, establish dedicated institutions to reinforce the rules, and create a critical mass of citizens who understand those rules.

He said senior figures in Kenya had already voiced their

concerns about public reaction to the oil find, with many

people demanding pay rises. This had been the case in Nigeria, warned Prof Collier, where they had partied for a decade on oil money and were still clearing up the mess.

What does oil mean for Kenya?As Kenya celebrates its first oil discovery, questions are being asked on what this will mean for Kenya as a nation.

Richard Leakey, an outspoken conservationist, fossil expert and a former Kenyan politician while speaking to DW urged Kenyans to put pressure on the government to avoid the mistakes made in other oil-rich African nations.

female circumcision

I am sure most of you have heard about Female circumcision or call it genital mutilation as is commonly called by the human right groups. I believe most of you have no idea what it involves. Relax, mjuaji will tell you all about it from his personal observation and experience.

Female circumcision is a ritual that is carried out on girls in many parts of the world. In the late 50s and early 60s, the practice was very common around the part of the world where mjuaji grew up. It used to be carried out on girls aged between 12 and 14 years. It was a cultural practice that was accepted by everyone else except the missionaries. It was expected for a girl to undergo the cut when she reached the correct age. It used to be carried out in the month of August. I guess the reason for it being done in august was to ensure that the girls were ready by xmas time so that they could have a good time.

The circumcision was usually done early in the morning by the bank of the river which will remain nameless. Those to be circumcised used to be assembled in one area before being led to the area where the ritual would take place. The girls moved in a row which was being headed by a woman. Beside every girl was a woman who walked along her. the accompanying woman used either

to be her aunt or another relative. The accompanying woman was known as ‘mutiri’ or supporter. Once at the river bank the girls were asked to undress and then get to the river for a bath. The water at that time of the day and month used to be cold. Bathing with the cold water was supposed to numb the genitalia inorder to reduce pain during circumcision. After bathing the girls were sat on a goat’s skinThe mutiri sat behind the girl she was to support. The girl did not have any pant on. She sat with her legs wide open and bent at the knees. The mutiri who sat behind the girl interlocked the girl’s legs with her own inorder to ensure that they remained open. This sitting arrangement made sure that the genitalia were exposed and easily accessible by the circumcisor. She also put her arms around the girl’s chest and held the girl’s hands firmly against the chest. This meant that the girl was completely trapped and could not move or escape. The circumcisor would then reassure the girl and the splash cold water over the genitalia inorder to numb the area. Whether it worked or not God knows.

The woman would then remove a small sharp knife and using her index and the thumb hold the clitoris and then using the knife cut all of it from top downward. The cut piece would be put on a leaf and given to the person

assisting the circumcisor to be disposed off later. Incidently it was only the two who knew where the pieces were disposed. After the piece was cut off a leaf coated with vaseline was pressed over the site of the cut to stop bleeding. The leaf used to be a long one and would be left between the genitalia lips commonly called labia marjora. The mutiri would then release the girls legs and arms. The girl would then be asked to close her legs firmly and hold the leaf in place with her closed legs. After each girl had been circumcised the women around would ululate three times.

After all the girls were circumcised they would be escorted home by their mutiri, friends and relatives. many used to cry and faint on their way home due to pain and bleeding. To stop further bleeding another leaf was placed and pressed at the bleeding site. They used to walk slowly with their leegs together. Incidently sanitary towels were un heard of in the village, so the women would use what they thought was best to stop bleeding. At home the girls were kept in a room and were not allowed to come out during the day.

Circumcisison is a very painful experience. The girls being circumcised were not given any pain killer or local anaesthesia. Girls were expected to be brave and not cry when they were being circumcised or after. This never was and the girls used to cry alot due to pain. Usually at night and in the morning the girls used to cry and ask for maithirini (vaseline) to lublicate the genitalia inorder to ease the pain. The pain used to be severe after the girl had passed urine. Remember urine is acidic and as it passes out it comes into contact with the site of the wound. This caused the girls alot of pain.

The whole idea and process was pure torture but the culture demanded it, so the women had to undergo it. After being cicumcised the woman was considered to be mature and eligible for marriage. Incidently no man would think of marrying an uncircumcised woman. It was a considered to be a taboo. During the healing period the girls were fed on high protein diet which was composed of black beans.

For the past 7 years, I have celebrated my birthdays with pain, being accused and being charged with child stealing in Kenya. This led me to fight extradition since 2006, but the judge ruled that I and my wife, Mary Deya, were wronglfully accused. We have now been acquitted by the magistrate cours court in Kenya from all charges. Victoriously the prison doors opened for my wife. Mary Deya has now been reunited with our children. It is with a great sense of relief and vindication to the entire Deya family resume Gods work. It is also a great embarassment to those who conspired to against us to harm our family and the work which the lord has entrusted into our hands. Glory be to God the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Call me mjuaji or for those not familiar with the word can call me ‘the know it all’. Oh yes I want to share with you some of my escapades during those days when I was a young boy.

May be you are asking yourself how many times shall I forgive my wife, my husband, my son, my daughter, my mother my dad and the list goes on and on and on. Hi wait a minute that question was asked once in the bible by peter he to wanted to know how many times shall he forgive the wrong doers of his times, lets now get it from the word of God

Matthew 18:21 Then came Peter to him (Jesus) and said, Lord how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? seven times according to human mathematics is a lot of times:

But wait a minute and hear what Jesus has to say verse 22 of Matthew: Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee untill seven time (not according to your mathematics) but, untill seventy times seven wao. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Thats a heard one may be thats what peter said and that is what most of us are saying even now. Thats why we see in

Luke 17:5 the apostles said unto the LORD INCREASE OUR FAITH because they said its not easy. . . lets be real and go to GOD and tell him Father its not easy.

Why are you forgetting who started forgiveness. its our GOD jOHN 3: 16 says for GOD so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son to die so that we be forgiven our sins.

Our father forgave us, so when you do not forgive who do you re-simple? you alone can answer that question.

And just incase you have forgotten when you do not forgive you are a slave to your self. Be free. That is why JESUS came just forgive. Amen

Watch out next months magazin I will give my own testimony on forgiveness

Creating and sustaining a healthy lifestyle is not easy, the process almost, always involves setbacks. Knowing about healthy lifestyles is the easiest part, but knowing what a healthy lifestyle is and actually practicing it is the most difficult part for most individuals. The key is for an individual to find a strong motivation to change.

There are common models for behavior change which includes; the stage of change and Health Action Process approach. An individual seeking a healthy life style must try a number of models that actually have good evidence behind them by taking small steps such as drinking one less soda a day, or setting a goal of walking just a mile or two around the neighborhood, or parking a block from work and walking the rest of the way.

Another method of continued effort in sustaining a healthy lifestyle is to seek support and

change strategies to avoid boredom. During the process an individual must not hate themselves for doing behaviors that are not what

they wanted. Individuals who strive for a healthier life style can provide an inspiration for others. We all should acknowledge that a change in life style can be difficult, but it can be done. Achieving a good healthy life style doesn’t happen overnight.

The journey requires determination, support and

patience.

WE SHOULD NOTE THAT HEALTHY LIFESTYLE IS KEY TO LONGIVITY.

Pastor’s Corner - FORGIVENESS

Approach to a Healthy Lifestyle

Homeless people who became super rich and famousIt’s hard to imagine famous people ever struggling for money. But many of them were not just poor — they were homeless.

We’ve given you some extraordinary rags-to-riches stories in the past, and here are some more incredible stories of people who at some point in their lives had nowhere else to sleep but on the streets. They eventually turned their lives around and became an inspiration to anyone who dreams of a professional career despite starting from nothing. Some best known personalities are: Oscar winner Halle Berry, Actor Jim Carrey, Frank O’Dea, one of the richest Canadians, Suze Orman, Personal finance guru Daniel Craig acts as “James Bond”

Forgiveness is the starting point of a life full of love, peace, joy and happiness. That is why the devil will make sure you do not forgive so that he can keep you in bondage. please do not forget unforgiving is a sin.

Firstly, I learned that hair has its own natural conditioner known as the sebum; oil composed of waxes and fats and also contains a natural antiseptic that helps fight infections. The sebum is produced by the sebaceous glands present in the dermis. These glands are linked to the hair follicles and release sebum into them. Now to Black hair: this type of hair is almost always curly. Because of the insufficient sebum produced by the sebaceous glands, the hair is less moisturised and therefore it is brittle and has a tendency to split and break. Also, due to the fact that the hair is tightly curled, the sebum is unable to travel downwards to condition it naturally. This means therefore that black hair requires more attention and needs to be treated with much care in order for it to become manageable.

Choosing a style that suits your looks and lifestyle is something that should be taken very seriously and also choosing a proper hairstyle that brings out the best features of your face can make the difference in how beautiful you look. Contrary to the persistent idea that natural hair offers no versatility in styling, i discovered that there are so many hairstyling options to choose from. To start with, you can look through different hairstyles with people who have faces that are shaped similar to yours and see which one would fit you and also the one that you find to be attractive. Another option would be asking your hairdresser for advice on what type of hairstyle you would look best in. He or she can help you develop the best look for you. Here are a few hairstyles to get you started.

Bantu knotsAlso known as Zulu knots, Bantu knots come in different varieties

and can be worn on any hair type and any hair length. They are created when the hair is sectioned off and twisted into knots.

Twist outTwist out is a great hairstyle for natural African American

hair. It adds volume and waves to your hair, depending on the size of your twists.

Nubian twistsNubian twists are type of hair extension used on African

American hair. They are short usually above or on the neckline. These twists are a form of protective styling worn to protect the natural hair from the daily rigors of heat and chemical styling. They

come in a variety of colours from which you can choose from.

CornrowsCornrows are a traditional African style of hair grooming

where the hair is braided very close to the scalp, using an underhand, upward motion to produce a continuous, raised row. Cornrows are often formed, as the name implies, in simple, straight lines, but they can also be formed in complicated geometric or curvilinear designs.

Kinky twists and Gypsy twistsThese twists flow freely and it’s possible to do them

with your natural hair. However, if your hair is not long enough you can add synthetic hair for a natural look.

Wash and go

As the name suggests wash-and-go is simple, quick and economical. Most of all it looks great!!!

To sum it up, ensure to wash your hair regularly to keep it clean and well taken care of and use a shampoo that works well with your hair type, for example if you have oily hair, you should choose a shampoo that works to help control the oil. In addition, be sure to use conditione r every time you shampoo to keep your hair smooth and tangle free.

The best styles for black hairYour hair is an important part of your appearance and is often used by people when evaluating your overall

beauty. A few months ago I made a decision to go natural after a very bad experience with hair chemicals. I must confess that it has been a tough journey the most difficult part being maintenance and getting suitable hairstyles. So I decided to embark on a research concerning natural black hair and I’m still in the process of learning and discovering new things. Today I will share with you some of the things I have learned.

I am Maureen Natumi, the founder of MKUK Miss Kenya UK. I established MKUK as a charity following deep frustrations caused by the limitations and failures of other Miss Kenya oriented pageants in the UK. Following my work as a photographer in previous pageants, I gained excellent experience through positive and negative experiences I faced during this period. MKUK seeks to meet the challenges faced by both competitors and attendees by adopting the positive aspects of other pageants.

MKUK aims to give back to the

community, by uniting the Kenyan Community in the United Kingdom and raising agents to represent and work for charities both in Kenya and Britain.

It will offer a great opportunity to tap into the classic values of a beauty pageant and realise the joy and strength that was once

shared in such events. It will also give a platform for the Kenyan community to bring forth its best local and international talent, expand opportunities for businesses and most importantly support needy courses financially and through enhanced

exposure and advertisement. MKUK is planning a number of

promotional events across the UK over the next coming months where we will bring the MKUK motto ‘Celebrating Unity’ to life. This will be accomplished by showcasing bright and rising talents across the arts. Join us on www.mojatu.com/misskenyauk to read more about our work and to see the details of our Facebook, Twitter and upcoming webpage. You will find information on our

upcoming events, application process, sponsorships, marketing opportunities and how to become our partner.
