			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Open Letter to<br />
-The President<br />
World Bank.<br />
-The Managing Director<br />
International Monetary Fund.<br />
THE LOOTED KENYA PUBLIC FUNDS MUST BE RECOVERED:<br />
No compromise and no negotiations about the recovery of the looted public funds stolen from the Kenya public coffers. All the looted public funds must be recovered immediately. It will be recalled that very many Kenyans have been killed because of challenging corruption in Kenya. Many others have been left disabled, while millions of innocent Kenyans have been left in abject poverty, emanating from the rampant corruption perpetuated by the corrupt leaders in Kenya. </p>
<p>The hope that the introduction of the multiparty politics and the new constitution would transform the behavior of the corrupt leaders, has dwindled especially after the revelation by the World Bank, that millions of Kenya shillings that was intended to assist the millions of the suffering jobless youth, disappeared from the office of the Prime Minister recently.<br />
In 2009, the Kenya members of Parliament, most of whom, are suspects in many corruption scandals, passed a bill which intended to pardon themselves and all other former leaders who looted the public funds from the Kenya public coffers before the year 2003. That bill was passed before consultation was made with the Kenyan people. It is unacceptable to Kenyans that the members of the Kenya Parliament can pardon themselves and all the other former corrupt leaders, without the knowledge, consent and authority from Kenyan People.</p>
<p>Most of the looted money was from the loans which were given to Kenya by the World Bank, IMF and the Donor Nations. Over a long period, the loans and the grants given to Kenya have been  looted and are stil being stolen. Some of the money looted was used to buy properties in foreign nations, while the rest was banked in foreign personal Bank accounts abroad. The looted public funds have placed the Kenya corrupt leaders among the richest individuals in the world today. The World Bank, the IMF and the donor community have to consider the facts that the origin of the loans, the grants and the donations given to Kenya, are from the taxes collected from the citizens of different Nations. Some of the citizens from whom taxes are collected and converted to loans, grants and donations, are relatively very poor people who are trying to make ends meet in vain. It is therefore absolutely sad to see those loans, grants and donations, end up into the pockets of a few corrupt individual leaders in Kenya. </p>
<p>All the billions of Kenya shillings that have been looted and stashed in private personal bank accounts abroad, should be frozen, recovered and returned to Kenya immediately.</p>
<p>No peace for the common Kenyan, no freedom for the common Kenyan and no democracy for the common Kenyan, until all the looted Kenya public funds are recovered and returned to Kenya. No more loans should be given to Kenya, no more grants should be given to Kenya and no more donations should be given to Kenya until all the already looted public funds are recovered and returned to Kenya. No compromise over the looted public funds in Kenya. All the looted public funds belong to the Kenyan people and should be returned to Kenyans. </p>
<p>It hurts, It annoys and it disappoints to understand that the burden of paying back all those looted loans has been left to the poor suffering Kenyans, who cannot afford two meals a day, leave alone having a balanced diet. Where is freedom, where is democracy and where is peace for the common Kenyans, when they are forced to pay for the looted loans? The high taxes imposed on essential commodities, over the heavily taxed pay, earned by the Kenyan workers, provide enough reasons for quick recovery of all the stolen money. There has to be a national debate for collective bargaining to stop the heavy taxation on the pay given to the Kenyan workers, and the heavy taxes imposed on essential commodities, for the purposes of raising enough money to pay for the already looted public funds. What is the difference in the magnitude of the crime committed by a robber who shoots and kills innocent human beings in order to get money, and the corrupt Kenyan leaders who loot public funds leaving innocent human beings dying from poverty and hunger?. </p>
<p>Already some Nations have indicated their willingness to freeze looted public funds banked in their respective nations. We will not rest until all the looted Kenya public funds are recovered and returned to Kenya. On behalf of all those Kenyans suffering and in abject poverty, the Kenyan women and children with endless tears of agony and pain, I wish to plead with the donor community to assist us in the recovery of the looted public funds. The World Bank, the IMF and the donor community should not continue to give money to Kenya, knowing so well that the money will be looted and banked abroad in foreign personal bank accounts. The poor Kenyans have suffered a lot in the hands of their leaders for too long in paying back for the loans that never benefited them, and which money, is today lying idle in foreign personal Bank accounts owned by the Kenya looters of the Public funds.</p>
<p>The failure to recover the already looted public funds, will be an automatic approval of the current and future leaders in Kenya, to continue looting public funds with impunity, and it is tantamount to an indirect support of the looters of the public funds. Freezing, recovering and hence returning the looted public funds will be an example of the consequences of looting public funds in Kenya, now and in future. It is the only way to stop the endless and uncontrollable corruption in Kenya. This is also one way of building and restoring confidence in the leadership of Kenya, and the only means of improving the living conditions of the suffering Kenyan people. </p>
<p>Everything should be done to recover all the looted public funds in Kenya and we will do all we can and use all possible means to recover and have all the looted public funds returned to Kenya. Nevertheless, a lot of help is necessary from friends of Kenya, in whose nations, the looted funds are hidden and where there are assets and properties  worth millions of dollars, which were bought with the looted public funds.<br />

<p>THE GRABBING OF THE UFUNDI SACCO HOUSE &#8211; Going THE  NATURE HOUSE STYLE:<br />
The Ufundi Sacco House in Nairobi, Kenya, may likely go the Nature House style if nothing is done to save it.  Recent developments indicate that, the Ministry of works employees who bought the Ufundi House through their Cooperative Society, may loose their house to six individual Kenyans, who are in the process of selling the house without the consent and/or authority of the owners.  </p>
<p>In 1998, the then Ufundi house owned by the employees of the Ministry of Works was destroyed by a Bomb.  The American Government replaced it with  the new house called the Ufundi Sacco in Nairobi. According to Mr. Nelson Ngoo, a member of the Cooperative Society which bought that house on their behalf,  six officials of the Cooperative Society, are in the process of selling the house. Efforts by a few members of the society to plead with the Government to intervene and stop the sale of the house, has been unsuccessful.</p>
<p>Without any immediate  help, it is very likely that the owners of the Ufundi Sacco house will loose that house to those officials, the same way the Kenya Civil Servants lost  Khs. 60 billion worth of Assets, properties and money that was in various Banks in 1980, to a few Kenya politicians. In 1980, soon after the invalidation of the then Union for the Kenya Civil Servants, through a dictatorial decree by President Moi, assets, properties and the money owned by the Kenya Civil Servants which was in various Banks, was grabbed by the Kenya politicians.  Those properties included the Nature House situated at the center of the capital City, Nairobi. Today, 31 years latter,  history is repeating itself.  A few individuals are corruptly grabbing the property of  innocent defenseless Kenya Civil Servants.  The Kenya Government has adopted the similar silence it adopted 31 years ago, when it let go the properties of its workers [the Civil Servants], to a few disgruntled corrupt Kenya politicians.  Every Kenyan is wondering who will stop this kind of corruption.<br />

<p>         HARD TO REPLACE PROFESSOR  WANGARI  MAATHAI:</p>
<p>Kenya has lost a brave patriotic lady who will be very hard to replace. Prof. Wangari was a social, cooperative, kind, merciful and a very patriotic Kenyan, qualities found in very few human beings. She associated with all categories of human beings.  She had a unique characteristic which enabled her to fit in every age group regardless of her profession, education and age. She has left a gap which will be hard to fill. She will be remembered by the whole world for her deeds and her love for all.  May the Lord rest her Soul in eternal peace.</p>

　August  7, 2011.<br />
　<br />
OPEN LETTER<br />
　<br />
-PRESIDENT MWAI KIBAKI<br />
-PRIME MINISTER RAILA ODINGA<br />
RE: WARNING:<br />
There is no doubt that both Your Exellency President Kibaki and Hon. Prime Minister Raila Odionga are aware of the millions of weapons suspected to be hidden in parts of Kenya especially in the Rift Valley Province. You very well recall that on the 9th. of December 2009 and on 2nd of February 2010, thousands of bullets, Army Uniforms, thousands of liters of gas, Plane batteries, war trucks and many other weapons were discovered in Narok, Kenya. The entire Kenya media reported the discovery of those weapons.***.You have either chosen to ignore the matter, unwilling to investigate or you have been party to the entire conspiracy, with an ulterior sinister motive. </p>
<p>On nearly daily basis in 1989 and 1990, President Moi persistently warned Kenyans of war and chaos once a multiparty system of governance was allowed in Kenya. And surely the chaos and killings commenced in 1992 with the deaths of more than 800 Kenyans in less than one month. Although those attacks, killings and evictions which continued from 1992 to 2008 were baptized numerous names ranging from, Cattle rustling, Tribal clashes, Ethnic cleansing to Land problems, there is no doubt they were associated with the introduction of the multiparty system of Governance. President Moi knew vey well that after the introduction of the multiparty system of Governance in Kenya, he would be removed from office because of his past misdeeds. He was bitter, angry and disappointed with the communities which were aggressively behind the pressures to introduce the multiparty system of Governance in Kenya, depriving him the opportunity to lead Kenya until death as happened to his predecessor, President Jomo Kenyatta. He was aggressively determined to make sure that he punished those communities which were behind that crusade. The four communities which were openly behind those pressures were, the Kikuyu, the Luo, the Luhya and the Kisii. But who would President Moi have used to punish those communities other than his own community? That was the reason why those from the Kisii community who lived in Nyanza and who bordered the Kericho District which is inhabited by the Kalenjin community, were among those who were punished in 1992. They were attacked, killed and were made to flee their homes despite the fact that they did not live in the Rift Valley which the Kalenjins came to claim latter.</p>
<p>In 1991, one year before those attacks and the killings in 1992, thousands of arrows were intercepted at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on arrival from South Korea. The entire Kenya media covered the story. The Kenya Government confiscated the arrows and kept silent as though nothing had happened. No investigations were carried out. One year latter in 1992 those same arrows were used in the attacks and killings of innocent women and children. Your Excellence President Kibaki and Hon. Prime Minister Raila, this is not a new story to you. You probably know more than most Kenyans know about the importation of those arrows and their subsequent use in the attacks and the killings in Kenya. How the arrows confiscated by the Kenya Government at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in 1991, found their way into the bodies of those who were killed in the attacks which took place in 1992, is a very peculiar puzzle, extremely hard to unravel.<br />
Your Excellency President Kibaki, Hon. Prime Minister Odinga, is Kenya history repeating itself? After the discovery of many weapons in Kenya in 2009 and in 2010, you kept silent as though nothing happened. Why have you not ordered investigations on those discovered weapons and many others suspected to be hidden in the Rift Valley Province, Kenya? The weapons discovered in Narok were confiscated by the Kenya Government in the same manner it did to the intercepted arrows in 1991. Will the weapons discovered in Narok, Kenya, be used to attack and kill innocent women and children again as happened with the arrows? Are you two Executives of our Nation, Kenya, waiting for an explosion in order to call for investigations into the hidden weapons in order to act?</p>
<p>The failure of the Kenya Government to investigate the hidden weapons after such a discovery, leaves a lot to be desired. The international community watched when all the negative signs unfolded shortly before 1992 when the massacre of the 800 Kenyans took place. By copies of this letter, I am asking whether the international community is waiting for an explosion in Kenya, so that it can open its mouth.<br />
No one was arrested and prosecuted over the importation and use of the arrows which were confiscated at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and no one has been arrested and prosecuted over the discovery of thousands of weapons in Narok, Kenya. What a scenario and coincidence?<br />

<p>8 &#8211; 27 &#8211; 2011</p>
<p>IS THE CURRENT INFLUX OF THE SOMALIS IN NAIROBI, KENYA, PART OF THE 2007 MOU AGEEMENT?:</p>
<p>The influx of the Somalis in the Capital City of Kenya, Nairobi, is now raising a lot of concern. Considering that most of the Somalis who are entering Nairobi are Muslims, raises doubts whether, what is happening is within the 2007 Hon Prime Minister Raila Odingas&#8217; Memorandum of Understanding with the Muslim Community.</p>
<p>Surprisingly, Hon. Kajwang, a strong ODM member and supporter, who hails from the same place with the Hon. Prime Minister, has been accused of corruption in the naturalization process in the department of immigration, where some of the fleeing Somalis from the war torn Somalia, are immediately  given full  citizenship status on arrival. </p>
<p>Those Somalis are arriving in Kenya with large sums of money which they are using to buy expensive houses in the capital city of Kenya, Nairobi with great ease. Why those Somalis who escaped Somalia in the early stages of the civil war did not have any money, unlike those escaping today, who have more money than they require for food and clothing, is unexplainable. Also whether those now arriving in Kenya from Somalia are genuine refugees or terrorists in disguise, is again another puzzle.</p>
<p>From the outlook of what is happening in the Kenya capital City today, Nairobi is apparently on sale to foreigners, and this creates fears among the indigenous genuine nationals of the Republic of Kenya. </p>
<p>But the most important question which requires an immediate answer, is whether whatever is happening at the department of immigration regarding the extraordinary hasty naturalization of foreigners and the rapid purchases of the houses in Nairobi, is part of the agreement in the “Memorandum of Understanding”. </p>

THE MORE THAN ONE TRILLION KENYA SHILLINGS DEBT&#8212;WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?</p>
<p>Kenya is in trillions of Kenya shillings debt, it owes the Bretwood institutions and other Nations.  Who received the loans on behalf of Kenyans? What was done with the money? Where did all those loans go?. Did the common Kenyan benefit from those Loans, and the billions of the Kenya shillings given to Kenya in form of Grants by the donor community? Over the years, Kenya has been receiving a lot of money in form of loans and grants from different corners of the World.  But unfortunately, all that money has not been reaching the Kenyan people, yet  the common Kenyans have always been forced to pay back for the stolen Loans through their taxes.  That has been the reason why Kenyans have continued to live in abject poverty and suffering. A few months ago, the British Government revealed that it had identified a lot of money that had been stolen from the Kenya public coffers and banked in various Banks abroad, and pleaded with the Kenya Government, for permission to freeze all that money, so that it could be sent back to Kenya. The plea landed on deaf ears.</p>
<p>Billions of Kenya shillings were stolen by the Kenyan leaders, and the money is lying idle in the foreign Banks as Kenyans continue to suffer and die out of poverty. It has always been speculated that the money already stolen, would run Kenya for slightly more than ten years comfortably without borrowing any more money from elsewhere, if brought back home.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the common Kenyan has for many years been forced to pay for those stolen loans which have become an unbearable burden . Heavy taxes are imposed on essential commodities in order that the loans can be repaid. Those who are earning less than one dollar a day in Kenya, are paying tax directly from their earnings through the “Pay As Your Earn” program. They are also forced to pay more money to the Kenya Government, through the tax imposed on the basic needs like food, clothing and other items, whose prizes have been raised so high, in order to meet the demands to repay the huge loans. It has been disappointing to see the same class of people who have been victims of corruption in Kenya, being forced to repay the Loans that were never used to develop the nation. When the common poor Kenyans question corruption which saw those loans disappear into the pockets of a few, those same Kenyan leaders who stole the loans, their relatives and their friends, who also benefited from the looted loans, always come out under fictitious names in the newspapers, to silence them.</p>
<p>Today Kenyans are suffering from the high inflation, which is as a result of the high taxes on essential commodities. The high taxes on those commodities are aimed at offsetting the loans which were received from the donor Nations, but were stolen immediately on arrival and stashed away into the Foreign banks abroad. It is time all Kenyans rise up and talk in one voice to demand that all the stolen public funds be returned to Kenya. The common Kenyan people cannot afford to continue to pay heavy taxes in order to pay back loans which are in the pockets of a few Kenyan leaders, their relatives and their friends. Kenyans will not accept to continue to suffer from inflation and high prizes on the basic commodities, in order to raise money to repay the loans that never reached them. All Kenyans whenever they are, should support the notion of freezing all the looted public funds from the Kenya public coffers, so that the money can be returned to Kenya. The stolen Money was the loan intended to reach the common Kenyan. The money therefore belongs to Kenyans and should be returned to the Kenyan people.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>WHY KENYA AND  THE  ENTIRE  AFRICAN  CONTINENT  SHOULD  BE  CAUTIOUS OF  THE  CHINESE INFLUX INTO AFRICA:</p>
<p>	The influx of the Chinese nationals not only in Kenya but in the entire continent of  Africa, poses a very great danger to the African people in the very near future. Currently the Chinese people are flooding the African continent as though it is a “Chinese immigration relief program“. Most Africans memories are extremely weak and  they forgot very easily.  Almost all African nations got independence from foreigners less than 100 years ago. Before those Africa nations were colonized, the colonizers followed the same path the Chinese are following today to get into Africa. The Africans allowed the foreigners to settle in their nations the  same way they are doing so  to the Chinese. When a reasonable number of the foreigners settled in those African nations, they colonized them.  The rate at which the Chinese are settling in Africa, indicate that there is a possibility that in the next 20 years , there will be more than  600 million Chinese in Africa. With the help of China, which is currently very powerful economically, the number will be large enough to colonize Africa for the second time, with great ease. </p>
<p>             But some Africans will argue that Africans are  poor and they need help which they are now getting from china. Then one big  question comes, “why abandon the west“? There is no doubt about the concerns of the west regarding  the undemocratic practices and human right abuses in most African Nations. There is also no doubt that the African leaders are fleeing the west to china, to escape the enormous pressure from the west to end the undemocratic practices, Human rights abuses and the rampant corruption which have seen many Africans languish in poverty and hence facing pre-mature death.  With the Chinas records of human rights abuses and political murders, there is no doubt the African corrupt leaders have found a safe haven and a sanctuary in China, where they can  hide their atrocities and crimes. When the Britons started to visit Kenya, for example, they were welcomed and embraced by the Kenyan people. Kenyans did not know whatsoever that the Britons would ever colonize them.   The suspicious trend of the Chinese immigration to Africa, worries the Human Rights fraternity which is already perplexed by  the human rights abuses in china today.<br />
	Also scaring is the possibly that all the achievements in Africa in terms of democracy and human rights respect may  be reversed  by China’s undemocratic policies.  The latest scenario in which china invited President Bashir of Sudan  and gave him  a wonderful reception despite the indictment by the ICC, is a sign of negative things to come. This alone will promote and encourage human rights abuses in Africa, and will also encourage the African leaders brutality and corruption. For many years the west continued to give Africa a lot of assistance. The west has also been inviting and hence hosting millions of Africans, who have in return  been sustaining the economies of their home countries. The Chinese who are being exported to Africa from China, have been sending  back to china millions of dollars from Africa, most of which is the loan given out to African Nations by China. The African people have continued to enjoy the green card program from the West. The green card program has not been a right for the African people but a privilege. If Africans are  denied  this privilege today, there will be a very great effect on the African economy and hence a higher increase of unemployment.</p>
<p>	There are three possible reasons why African leaders are fleeing to china  from the West;<br />
1]  To continue to enjoy looting public finds with impurity.<br />
2] To continue abusing human rights with impunity<br />
3] To continue to use the rule of the jungle to dictate what they  feel is good for themselves and to oppress and intimidate their nationals without  any challenges.</p>
<p>            The main differences between the provision of Loans by the West and those by China are;<br />
A]  Loans from the West are tied to Transparency and Accountability, Democratic Governance, Human Rights respect, rule of Law and Anti-Corruption.  Some Nations in the West have been inviting Africans to live and work  there  every year.<br />
B]  China  does not in any way relate their Loans or any form of  assistances to Democratic Governance, Human Rights respect, Transparency and Accountability or Anti-Corruption, neither are  Africans  invited to China, but instead Chinese Nationals are exported to Africa in great numbers to work and live there. There are thousands of Chinese  living and working in Africa today.</p>
<p>	It  is therefore inappropriate for the common Africans to embrace and support the political marriage between their leaders and china and at the same time run to the west to seek help to stop corruption and human rights’ abuses in their Nations.   Therefore, the possibility that  in 20 years time from now, Africans will be in acute problems than in any other time in the history of the continent, if nothing is done to stop the influx of the Chinese nationals into the Africa Continent, cannot be ruled out.  Years ago, Africans did one great mistake which led to colonization of their Nations by foreigners. Will they repeat the same mistake this century?</p>

<p>OPEN LETTER TO</p>
<p>Hon. George Saitoti<br />
Minister of state for Provincial Administration and Internal Security<br />
KICC Building, 3rd. Floor<br />
PO BOX 45617-00100<br />
Nairobi.</p>
<p>Dear Sir,</p>
<p>IS KENYA A FAILING STATE OR A FAILED STATE?.<br />
For 14 years since 1992, the Kenya Government totally failed to stop the attacks, murder and evictions of innocent Kenyans from their homes. Many women and children were murdered and many orphans and widows emerged from the attacks. Today, they languish in poverty and suffering as Internally displaced people in their own country. These are people who had acquired their homes legally and had lived in their homes peacefully for many years. The Government of Kenya has  totally failed to return the IDP to their homes. The Kenya Government has totally been unable to provide enough security for the IDP to go back to their homes. Whereas there is no law in Kenya that paves way for any community or any individual Kenyan to claim free land in Kenya, the Kenya Government has continued to tolerate and to allow one single community, the Kalenjins, to harass, attack, kill and evict other communities from the Rift Valley. </p>
<p>You will recall that 2 years before the first attacks in Sondu in 1991/92, President Moi had continuously warned Kenyans and the entire world of the consequences of introducing a Multiparty system of Governance  in Kenya. For a period of more than two consecutive years before those attacks and killings which  took place in Sondu, President Moi gave the war warnings whenever he addressed any gathering in Kenya. In his first 14 years of rule from 1978 to 1989, before the pressures for the introduction of the multiparty system of governance build up high, President Moi never, at any time mentioned anything, to do with war or chaos in Kenya. Similarly, the Kalenjin community had never protested or claimed land in the Rift Valley in Kenya, before President Moi prophesied and/or predicted war and chaos in Kenya. The Kalenjin community in Kenya had lived peacefully and intermarried with other communities before and after the independence of Kenya in 1963. The utterances of Moi about war and chaos in Kenya is what cost many Kenyans their lives and others who continue to suffer from senseless attacks and evictions. It is therefore in order to construe that President Moi incited his community to attack other communities who were perceived to have been behind the pressures for the introduction of a multiparty system of governance in Kenya through his war language. http://public-opinions-uganda.blogspot.com/search/label/Isaac%20Newton%20Kinity.  </p>
<p>The Kenya Government has failed to arrest and prosecute President Moi for his incitements which led to the beginning of the attacks in 1991/92. The Kenya Government has also failed to address the importation of poisoned arrows from South Korea in 1991 which were latter found in the bodies of those attacked and killed in 1991/92.  http://www.pambazuka.org/en/category/letters/58598/print. </p>
<p>Is there any reason the Kenya Government should not be declared a failed state after its failure to return the IDP to their legal homes, to prosecute President Moi for incitement and to prosecute those who imported arrows from South Korea which were used to kill innocent Kenyans. Can the Kenya Government explain why it failed to stop the killing of innocent, helpless and defenseless women and children for more than 14 years since 1991/92 to 2008, except for 1999 to 2002? What other signs of a failed or a failing state are expected, other than the failure to protect the Citizens against any unjustified attacks? A few months ago I wrote a letter to Prof. PLO Lumumba asking him to investigate the importation of the arrows from South Korea and the subsequent use of the same arrows in the attack and killing of innocent Kenyans in 1992.  </p>
<p>He replied to my letter and asked me to request the commissioner of the Kenya Police to do some investigation. I then wrote to the Commissioner of Police, but until this day I have not received a reply.  What else would qualify a state the title of a “Failed State” if the above facts are not enough?.</p>
<p>Sincerely</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>HOW  DID NAIVASHA STEAL THE 2008 POST ELECTION VIOLENCE SHOW?<br />
It is  unquestionable that  the 2008 attacks and killings started in Eldoret.  Eldoret had the largest number of people killed in the violence.  The violence spread to Kisumu, Kericho and Mombasa  before there was any trouble in Naivasha.  Even before  Kenyans heard about troubles in Naivasha, there had already been immense killings in Molo, Njoro, Githima village near Nakuru and in Western Kenya.  Then followed  Nairobi and Naivasha.  Naivasha came last in the violence. According to the data on the number of people killed during that violence, Naivasha had the least number of people killed.  Eldoret and  Kisumu topped the list, followed by Kericho, Mombasa, Molo, Njoro, Kakamega, Bungoma, Nairobi, Nakuru and then Naivasha.</p>
<p>In Naivasha, the Kikuyus attacked and killed the Luo.  There were no Kalenjins and therefore none of them was killed there.  In Nairobi, there were killings from both sides.  The Luos and the Kalenjins killed the Kikuyus while the Kikuyus killed the Luos and the Kalenjins.  Again there were not many Lalenjins for the Kikuyus to attack in Nairobi.  In all other areas which included Eldoret, Kisumu, Kericho, Molo, Njoro, Mombasa, Kakamega and Bungoma, only one community was targeted and killed, the Kikuyus.</p>
<p>Today, Naivasha has been leveled the hottest spot in the 2008 violence.  The Kenya Media and the Kenya Human Rights organizations have often  portrayed Naivasha, as the town where most Kenyans died in the Post election violence.  This is the other area where  both  the Kenya  media and  the Kenya human rights fraternity may be questioned on transparency and accountability.   It is high time when the figures of how many people died and where they died, are displayed in the Kenya printing media for both Kenyans and the international community to see in order to understand and dispel the notion and belief that Naivasha was either  the hottest spot in the 2008 violence or the place where the violence started.</p>
<p>It is very clear that, had the attacks and the killings not taken place in all other areas of Kenya earlier, and had the emotions developed after seeing  the wounded Kenyans who escaped death and fled to Central Province and other areas,  not  realized, there are no doubts, that no attacks would have taken place in Naivasha and Nairobi where different communities have lived together in peace for many years.</p>
<p>Naivasha is now viewed  to  have been the major spot in the post elections violence.  Its publicity by the Kenya media as the main spot for the killings has become the center of attraction in the entire World.  Whereas the killings which took  place in Naivasha  should be condemned,  It should be made very clear that very few people lost their lives in Naivasha, considering the thousands of children and women who were killed in Eldoret and the other areas, where condemnation and publicity by the Kenya Media and the Kenya Human Rights organizations, appears to be minimal.  Why the Kenya media has chosen to highlight the attacks in Naivasha more than the other areas, especially Eldoret and Kisumu, leaves a lot to be desired.<br />
