ock workers yesterday vowed to strike on Wednesday even as business leaders and the port management accused them of pushing a political agenda. Ocials of the Dock Workers Union endorsed the boycott to press the management to employee 2,500 casuals permanently as agreed last year. They accused Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) managing director Gichiri Ndua of working with Transport permanent secretary Cyrus Njiru to frustrate them. The unions secretary-general, Mr Simon Sang, issued a strike notice last Monday claiming that the management had reneged on its pledge to hire casuals. We have learnt that our demands are falling on deaf ears because the PS is running the port from Nairobi, he claimed. This comes at a time when the port is recovering from a congestion crisis that saw the facility choked with over 20,000 containers in a yard with a capacity of 15,000. But KPAs corporate aairs manager Bernard Osero said the strike was uncalled for since all avenues had not been explored. It is unfortunate that the union is calling for a strike even before they exhaust dialogue with the management, he said. Mr Osero warned the strike would disrupt

operations at a time when the port had recorded an increase in the volume of cargo being cleared. We cannot aord to have a strike for even a couple of workers at any of the departments because it will aect the entire chain, Mr Osero added. Maritime stakeholders also criticised Mr Sang, claiming he had turned the union into a political tool. There is no way any time workers have a dispute with the employer they resort to strikes even before they engage the management, said an industry player who declined to be named for fear of reprisals. But Mr Sang dismissed the claims, saying he was only ghting for his members rights. We called the strike because the management did not want to listen to us.

Our efforts to meet the MD and the human resource manager for more than a week have been futile and this has incensed our members, Mr Sang said. In an interview last Friday, Mr Ndua denied the claims. I have not denied anybody the opportunity to talk to me, he said. The looming crisis comes in the wake of the controversy over the appointment of new directors to the KPA board by Transport minister Amos Kimunya. The move drew protests across the country, with Malindi MP Gideon Mungaro successfully petitioning the court to stop the new directors from taking oce.

HEAVY RAINS | Residents homeless after Nairobi River bursts its banks and sweeps away houses

Floods kill one and leave 300 homeless


CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 of a woman. We are still looking for others reported missing, Mr Nyagah said. Ms Stella Waithera from the Kenya Red Cross said they were collecting information on the missing people from residents. The oods were blamed on heavy rains in parts of Kiambu and Limuru as it had not rained in the area for two days. The tragedy occurred when people were in deep sleep. The raging waters swept away houses and their contents. It has not rained here for three days. We believe the water came from Kiambu where it has been raining heavily, a resident, Mr Simon Owino, said. The floods destroyed three private schools and two churches, said Mathare 4A village chairman Silvanus Dinya. Of the three people rushed to Kiambu District hospital was twoweek-old Peter Onyango and his mother Elizabeth Ochieng, who were rescued from their ooded house. Mrs Ochieng was rescued at about 5am after staying in the water for more than three hours. We were asleep when heavy oods hit our house and destroyed it. We hurried to rescue our children who were dead asleep. My husband went for the older children while I was left with the youngest whom I came to learn that I was able to save after I gained consciousness at the hospital, she said. Her husband, Mr Michael Ochieng, said: I thought my wife had drowned after failing to see her for that long, but I thank God she was rescued. Mr Ochieng said he was woken up by gushing waters from the blue. We were deep asleep when we suddenly found ourselves in a sea of water and there was no time to think since the water came with such a force, sweeping away houses.

Leaders fault list of county bosses


Nyachae, Fida and ODM ministers ask President to rescind the decision, claiming list is not inclusive and gives women a raw deal
BY NATION TEAM
newsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com rime Minister Raila Odinga has rejected President Kibakis appointment of 47 county commissioners, saying he was not consulted. He also wondered what their job would be since the Constitution stipulates that governors will be running counties. The Commission on the Implementation of the Constitution (CIC) said the appointments should be done afresh because the President did not follow the spirit of the law in making them. Five Orange Democratic Movement Cabinet ministers have also opposed the selection, arguing that they were not fair to all tribes. Yesterday, Mr Odingas spokesman, Mr Dennis Onyango, said: The PM says he was not consulted. He also does not understand what their specic roles are because the Constitution says that governors will be in charge of the counties. He feels their appointment is a recipe for chaos in the counties. While making the appointments on Friday, State House explained that they were in line with Section 17 of the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution. The sections says: Within five years after the effective date, the national government shall restructure the system of administration commonly known as the provincial administration to accord with and respect the system of devolved government established under this Constitution. The county commissioners will coordinate security, national government functions and delivery of services, according to the announcement from the President Press Service (PPS). In this regard, President Mwai Kibaki has appointed County Commissioners to undertake coordination of National Government functions in the 47 counties, said the PPS. But Mr Nyachae, in an interview with the Daily Nation, argued that the appointments were not transparent. Section 17 is clear that the restructuring must accord respect to the devolved system of government and Constitution... To purport to address the issue without transparency, public participation and an agreed legal framework oends the Constitution, he said.

Orengo dares Mudavadi and Ruto to quit seats


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Lands minister James Orengo has dared Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi and Eldoret North MP William Ruto to relinquish their parliamentary seats after they quit ODM. Mr Orengo told the two to write to the House Speaker and the Registrar of Political Parties, formally informing them that they were no longer Orange party members, then seek a fresh mandate from their constituents. He said records in Parliament show that Mr Mudavadi and Mr Ruto are members of ODM and still ght for positions in the august House using the party name. The law says one cannot belong to more than one party and they should be man enough to write to the Speaker and Registrar of Political Parties, and make it ocial that they have quit, he said. The Ugenya MP asked House Speaker Kenneth Marende and Registrar of Political Parties Lucy Ndungu to take action against the former ODM members if they do not ocially make their positions clear. If the Speaker and Registrar of Political Parties take the appropriate action, then Mudavadi will cease to be Deputy Prime Minister and will also lose his Sabatia seat, said Mr Orengo. The MP spoke in Gem District during a homecoming party for government chief whip Jakoyo Midiwo. He said the two should be brave enough to seek fresh mandate from their constituents.

Mr Nyachae said the restructuring of the provincial administration must clearly dene the ocials relationship with other oces such as county governors. It should also involve other interested parties, such as his commission and Parliament. He argued that the national gov-

ernment mentioned in the law will only be put in place after the next elections and currently the country is run by a central government. On Saturday, Cabinet ministers Dan Mwazo (Tourism), Amason Kingi (Fisheries), Otieno Kajwang (Immigration), Franklin Bett (Roads), and Fred Gumo (Local Government) said the appointments favoured the Mt Kenya region. It is disappointing to see that the one region has 10 commissioners while some did not get a single slot, Mr Kingi complained. Internal Security assistant minister Orwa Ojodeh defended the list, saying the commissioners were picked on merit. The appointments were based on merit and seniority and not tribes so people should stop reading mischief, he said. The Federation of Women Lawyers also accused the President of giving women a raw deal. But Central Organisation of Trade Unions secretary-general Francis Atwoli said the list was inclusive. Every community and gender is represented in the appointments including the marginalised, Mr Atwoli stated. Reported by Peter Leftie, Jonathan Manyindo and Lillian Onyango

IEBC meets House team over poll funds


BY NATION REPORTER
The electoral team meets the Parliamentary Justice and Legal Aairs committee tomorrow to try and push through a Sh35 billion election budget. It will be the second time the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) will be meeting the MPs to lobby support for the funds it requires to hold a credible General Election. During the rst meeting last Thursday, the MPs rejected the Sh35 billion budget, saying it was very expensive and advised the commission to scale it down. We spent the whole of yesterday (Saturday) looking at the gures. We hope to reach an agreement when we meet them (MPs) on Tuesday, IEBC chief executive ocer James Oswago told Nation yesterday. During the Thursday meeting, the MPs asked IEBC chairman Isaack Hassan (right) and Mr Oswago to justify the huge budget. Mr Kasembeli Nasiuma, an assistant director of Budget at the Treasury, maintained that the commission had no choice but to make do with the Sh17.5 billion and await more money to be allocated to it in the Supplementary Budget. But the IEBC countered that there will be no Parliament to approve the Budget. Mr Oswago said a presidential run-o alone would cost Sh6.5 billion while the cost of maintaining security during the entire election period will cost the IEBC Sh600 million. According to the Constitution, a run-off must be done within 20 days after the General Election. Do you start printing new ballot papers for the presidential run-o at that time or you plan in advance? he posed yesterday.

Jailing children in adult cells faulted


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Judges and Magistrates have urged the State to stop conning children in police cells meant for adults saying the move violates the rights of the minors. Judges Asike Makhadia, George Dullu, Joel Ngugi and magistrates MaryAnn Murugi and Judith Omange told a workshop in Machakos County that children under the ages of 18 were being conned in adult cells in various police stations across the country. Machakos OCS John Mwaura told the workshop that ended on Saturday that seven children under the ages of 15 have been languishing at the Machakos police station cells for the last two months. Machakos Chief Magistrate Mary-Ann Murage said the boys should be removed from the cells and taken to the Machakos Rescue Centre where there is a holding block for children . What is happening is a violation of childrens rights and is wrong even under international law, Ms Murage said. She also expressed concern over the rising cases of child delement in the region saying at least two new cases are reported everyday. As much as we strive to punish the offenders, what happens to the victim after the aggressor is punished? She asked. The rising of murder cases in Kitui County was also a subject of discussion during the workshop. About 80 per cent of murder cases heard at the High Court in Machakos originate from Kitui,Justice Ngugi said. Deputy Registrar of the High Court Ms Judith Omange said majority of the murder cases were associated with disputes arising as a result of a land adjudication process currently under way in the region. The ocers also said the Judiciary was understaed and some courtrooms in lower eastern were located in condemned buildings.

Lands minister James Orengo has denied reports that he is at loggerheads with Finance assistant minister Oburu Oginga over the Siaya Senate seat. At the same time, Mr Orengo denied planning a major ceremony in Gem constituency on Saturday to launch his campaign for the post despite his previous pledge to support Dr Oginga for the seat. It is not true that I and Dr Oginga are at loggerheads over the post. On the contrary, we, as Siaya leaders, have mechanisms of resolving issues aecting the electorate and the political class. Consultations are going on over elective positions, he said.

UN chief hails withdrawal of South Sudan


Outbreak of violence in region between the Sudans has displaced tens of thousands, creating a refugee crisis
BY PATRICK MAYOYO
pmayoyo@ke.nationmedia.com

nited Nations secretary-general Ban Ki-moon yesterday welcomed South Sudans decision to withdraw its police force from the disputed Abyei area. Mr Ban urged neighbouring Sudan to pull out its forces from the area as well, in accordance with the agreement both parties signed in June last year. The UN chief also urged the two countries to immediately begin talks in a bid to end hostilities between them. The secretary-general urges the Governments of Sudan and South Sudan to resume negotiations under the auspices of the African Union High-Level Panel to resolve the outstanding issues between them, said a statement issued by his spokesman. Mr Ban called on both governments to activate the joint border verication and monitoring mechanism to ensure security on their border. The Security Council established the UN Interim Security Force for Abyei in June last year following an outbreak of violence after Sudanese troops took control of the area, displacing tens of thousands of people weeks before South Sudan became independent in July 2011. A referendum that would have determined the status of Abyei in January last year failed to take place amid disagreements on voter eligibility.

because both sides were reluctant to withdraw their forces from the area. Some 35,000 people have been displaced following the recent ghting near the border between Sudan and South Sudan, the United Nations refugee agency has said. The UN High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) has also warned that the new outbreak of violence is putting refugees safety at risk. Addressing the media in Geneva recently, a spokesperson for UNHCR, Mr Adrian Edwards, said people in border areas such as Heglig, Talodi and other parts of the state of South Kordofan in Sudan had been displaced by the ghting. Over the past month, there has been continued aerial bombardment in South Sudan, the latest having occurred in Bentiu town in the countrys Unity state.

Mr Edwards said UNHCR had registered an increase in the number of Sudanese refugees crossing the border, most of them into Kenya, some of them seriously malnourished. In Yida, for example, more than 1,300 new refugee arrivals were reported in the last four days, and average daily arrivals have tripled since February and March, the agency said.

New camp to be set up as more ee war


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
A new refugee camp is set to be established in Turkana County. Turkana West district commissioner Patrick Muriira said the new camp will be set up in the next few months. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) said that the local community had shown willingness to accommodate a new refugee camp at Kalobeiyei in Turkana West District. It will be 30 kilometres from the Kakuma Refugee Camp on the Lodwar-Lokichogio road The UNHCR, the provincial administration and the Department of Refugee Aairs are involved in the project. The population at Kakuma Refugee Camp is rapidly growing as hundreds of Sudanese refugees continue to ee into the country. The United Nations and NGOs have indicated that the camp will hit its maximum capacity of 100,000 refugees before June if the current inux of refugees from Sudan continues. Ever since the violence broke out in South Kordofan and Jonglei states, Sudanese from the Nuba Mountains have been eeing to Kenya. The UN has already issued a statement on the massive return of refugees to the Kakuma camp. According to Lutheran World Federation project ocer George Kinuthia, the camp received 1,371 new refugees in April alone. With Khartoum having declared an all-out-war with Juba, it means more refugees will stream into Kenya. The provincial administration has identied a 100-acre farm in Kalobeiyei for the new camp. According to Mr Muriira, consultations are going on with the host community on the possibility of increasing the acreage to accommodate more refugees. Head of UNHCRs Kakuma oce Guy Avognon said the number of refugees to be accommodated in the new camp will be determined by the availability of water resources. We are not after setting up a ve-star refugee camp, we only need a place that is safe and has water enough for the refugees, said Mr Avognon. The cost of establishing the new camp has not yet been determined but Mr Albert Wanyonyi, the area divisional ocer, said a colossal amount will be needed.

Timas Ibrahim, 42, South Kordofan Timas says he will never forget the fateful night when a jet from Sudan dropped a bomb, killing several of his friends and relatives in South Kordofan. For the father of nine, life has never been the same again. For the past three months, Timas has been on the run with his family, passing through the Nuba mountain thicket, eating fruits and sleeping on trees and caves. At one point, they encountered Arab militia men who shot at them, killing some of his friends. The journey from Central Sudan to Turkanas Kakuma refugees camp took Timas approximately 100 days. Timas says he has no hope of going back home, where he is faced with uncertainty brought about by an acute food shortage and bombs from Sudan.

Magda Timthoes, 34, Jonglei At Christmas Eve last year, Arab militiamen hit Magdas Village, spraying bullet on anyone they came across. The Arabs shot at us, while the military jets dropped bombs. There was nowhere to hide, recalls Magda. Magda who was breast-feeding her fth born, set out through the forest, running south with her children and sister-in- law. Magdas husband Timthoes died during the attack while trying to protect his children, wife and sister. Magda sister-in-law sustained gunshot injuries and passed away before they reached Makwae in March 2012, where they were helped by a Samaritan to Torit. From there, she was own to Lokichogio and a UNHCR truck brought her to Kakuma refugees camp.

Victoria Ahmed, 45, Darfur Victoria, a Sudanese mother of eight arrived in Kakuma Refugee Camp on Friday last week after walking for three months from Darfur, from where she ed with her family. Victoria lost touch with her husband and three children in Sudan and up to now, does not know where they are. She has also borne the brunt of her fellow Sudanese when eeing. Victoria was confronted by unfriendly Dinka groups in the Blue Nile state who regarded people from Darfur as separatist who did not ght for the unication of South Sudan.We were dragged out of vehicle and beaten up at times by Dinka, although they could not kill us, said Victoria in Kakuma. She plans to make the camp her home until peace returns.

Aziza Tejan, 16, South Kordofan Aziza was running away from two calamities; the falling bombs and an arranged marriage. Despite being in her teens, Azizas relatives had made arrangements for her to marry a local man shortly after the death of her father. But she refused to marry him and the issue was to be discussed by her family when the bombs fell and they had to run for their lives. Some of the teens family were brutally killed when she and her mother ed the village at the onset of the bombings. Her brother also lost an arm protecting Azaz from Arab militiamen. Though she does not like Kakuma, she vows never to return to her home where both elders who want her to marry and Arab militia men await her return

NAKURU

he national Aids agency is seeking to be transformed into a government commission in a bid to boost its coers. The National Aids Control Council (Nacc) has drafted the Kenya National Aids Control Bill that would make it an independent organ directly funded by the government. Speaking at a Mombasa hotel over the weekend, Nacc head of legal services Daniel Konyango said the Bill, if made law, will help in handling anti-HIV/Aids programmes. Mr Konyango said the council is facing many challenges in performing its tasks under a line ministry and dwindling money from donors. HIV funds from donors are on the decline and the organisations budgetary allocation under the Ministry of Special Programmes is inadequate for managing the disease, said Mr Konyango. He added that the proposed commission would help the agency in manage its own resources. Development partners used to contribute up to 87 per cent towards the HIV kitty but have reduced their allocation while the government only gives 13 per cent. Nacc Coast region eld ofcer Reuben Musundi said the increasing demand for HIV drugs and treatment among children CHALLENGES

The total spending on HIV medication rose from Sh7.7 billion in 2001/2002 to Sh53 billion in 2008/2009 and to date the amount has further increased, said Mr Musundi. He added that development partners had given conditions for funding, making them unreliable sources of money for anti-HIV programmes. The Clinton HIV/Aids initiative indicated its intention to discontinue support for paediatric ARVs and second-line treatment in 2011 and the US Presidents Emergency Plan for Aids Relief capped the number of patients it will support to 190,000 thousand, he said.

warned that the country is likely to lose the ght against HIV/Aids in the next four years without a sucient and steady source of income. The funds currently available to run Nacc activities can only last until 2016, said Mr Okiya. The councils coordination and support deputy director, Dr Sobbie Mulindi, said Kenya could witness a record HIV/Aids infection rate ahead of the elections. He noted that women would be the worst hit by the expected sharp increase in new infections at 80 per cent.

New infections, no money


The National Aids Control Council was established under the Nacc Order of 1999, which gives it responsibilities without powers to coordinate HIV and Aids and resource mobilisation Experts last week revealed rising new HIV infections from homosexuals, female sex workers and drug users, but eorts to ght the disease were hampered by little funding from the government Nacc demanded that the government allocates 1 per cent of its national budget yearly into an Aids Trust Fund to address new HIV infections

Dr Mulindi said the huge amount of money in circulation during electioneering period and the tattered social fabric will contribute to the spread of the epidemic. During the 2002 and 2007/08 elections, the disease rose from 4.9 per cent up to 6.6 per cent and things will not be better this time round given the importance Kenyans are placing on the next elections, said Dr Mulindi. He said Kenya lags behind in the war against Aids compared to countries like Rwanda, Botswana, South Africa and Ethiopia that inject at least 16 per cent of their GDP in dealing with epidemic against a paltry eight per cent the country has earmarked for a similar cause. These countries strictly adhere to the Abuja Declaration of 2001 that require nations to commit 16 per cent of their GDP to ghting Aids, stated Dr Mulindi. He added that lack of political goodwill had negated the war against Aids in Kenya where the trend of infection has shifted to married couples at 44 per cent. The ocial said the new Bill, if passed, would lead to formulation of formidable policies and guidelines necessary in dealing with the scourge.

Muthauras lawyers score key victory in ICC case


BY NATION REPORTER
Nairobi
Lawyers representing former Head of Public Service Francis Muthaura scored a major victory when they secured the acquittal of a suspect who was charged with war crimes. The war crimes court in Kosovo on May 2, 2012, cleared former Minister of Transport and Communication Fatmir Limaj of all counts of war crimes. The prosecution had submitted that Mr Limaj was the commander of a detention facility in which members of the Serb armed forces were executed and other civilians tortured during the 1998-1999 armed conict between the Kosovo Liberation Army and the Serbia army. He was represented by lawyers Karim Khan, Shyamala Alagendra and Venkateswari Rohini Alagendra who are also representing Mr Muthaura at the International Criminal Court where he is ghting crimes against humanity charges. Mr Ken Ogeto, who was retained by top Rwandese government ocials facing charges at the Arusha-based International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, is the only Kenyan lawyer in the Muthaura defence team. Others accused in the Kenyan cases are Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta, Eldoret North MP William Ruto and radio presenterJoshua arap Sang.

esidents of central Kenya have asked MPs to change the formula used to allocate county funds from the current one based on population size to another that relies on the poverty index. Speaking while giving their views to the Parliamentary Committee on Budget in Nyeri, they faulted using population as the benchmark to allocate the funds, saying the criteria would encourage leaders to manipulate census gures so as to get more funds.

Around 60 per cent of monies allocated to counties will be based on the size of their population while 20 percent will be determined by poverty levels. Fifteen percent of the national budget, which is over Sh200 billion, will go to counties. Going by the complaints already received from places such as North Eastern over the last census results, using population size as the criteria will encourage people to manipulate numbers, said councillor George Gatira from Muranga. The residents proposed that only 20 percent of revenue allocated to counties should be determined by population size, with the largest chunk based on poverty rate. Mr Samuel Mwiraga from Gatundu said basing the funds allocation on population would

sideline rural areas that lack basic infrastructure but are less populated. Urban areas have a lot of people who have migrated to towns in search of jobs. But they have relatively well-developed infrastructure, he said. This is the second time MPs are collecting views from the public since the promulgation of the Constitution, which provides for public participation in the budget-making process. Finance minister Njeru Githae, tabled the estimates of revenue and expenditure on April 26, with departmental committees expected to present their ndings to the House in 21 days. The chairman of the parliamentary budget committee Elias Mbau, said the team would tour 17 counties in the next three days to collect public input on the budget. He said the process would ensure better revenue allocation.

Tribal groupings a recipe for chaos, says ex-Mungiki boss


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Kisumu
Former Mungiki leader Maina Njenga has dismissed Gema and Kamatusa as tribal groupings that will only lead to post-election violence similar to the 2007/2008 mayhem. He said this as he continued his weekend visit of Kisumu yesterday where he presided over peace rallies and church services. Mr Njenga (left) revealed he had formed a foundation called Amani Sasa to mobilise Kenyan youth all to push for change. Addressing elated crowds in Kisumu at the weekend, Mr Njenga said leaders who sought support on tribal lines had reached political menopause and should be rejected at the ballot. When everybody else is using their tribal numbers to polarise this country, I have decided to form a tribe that is not determined by the corner of the republic one comes from but rather by age. I am talking about the youth, said Mr Njenga, who was accompanied by a host of politicians.

Turn new ideas into products for market


ast week the country was treated to the rst Science and Innovation Week which was staged in Nairobi. This, however, is not the rst time the National Council for Science and Technology has held such a fair mainly to showcase innovations it has sponsored or nurtured. What was dierent this time was the huge number of exhibitors participating at the event, which attracted entrants from across the country. But people who have been attending the councils annual exhibitions may by now have noted the repetitiveness of exhibits, with some presented year after year with little evidence that new value is being added to the projects. For example, the highly acclaimed disease diagnostic kits innovated by the Kenya Medical Research Institute years ago still remains on the exhibits circuit with very little impact on the commercial market. Another product which has remained on the circuit for too long is a herbal drug for boosting the bodys immunity which should have long moved to the mass market level. Going by the number of entries at last weeks fair, it is clear that the council is still intrigued by the quantity of innovations, which ran into hundreds. Innovators cite lack of nances to move their work from prototypes to the market. Currently, the council seems to be stuck at the level of helping create prototypes with no answer to what happens after that. Ideally, industry is expected to pick up from here and turn these into services and products. The council needs to court manufacturers to pick up its innovations, or consider picking up promising ideas and funding their commercialisation. This may mean funding much less primary ideas in the short term but it may be a better option.

Ocials scapegoating
utgoing Cricket Kenya chief executive, Briton Tom Sears, and New Zealands Mike Hesson, who has resigned as national coach, held a joint press conference on Thursday to say why they were exiting the Kenyan cricket scene. Sears, who has been here for almost two years, said he was taking up another job in Ireland while Hesson, who has been national coach for 10 months, said he was concerned about insecurity in Kenya. Its Hessons remarks that left many questioning his motives, having enjoyed Kenyan hospitality with nothing to show for it in terms of performance. Hessons record is not worth writing home about. Its a strange coincidence that Hesson threw in the towel shortly after Kenyas One Day International matches against Namibia were postponed owing to what the International Cricket Council termed as insecurity in the country. It would be window dressing to claim that Kenya is 100 per cent safe, but its rather obvious that the New Zealander saw an easy exit and used it to run away from his unenviable spell as a national coach. On the other hand, Sears departure was long overdue as he did nothing to stabilise Kenyas plummeting standards despite enjoying a hefty pay.

Trac congestion a result of Kenyas failure to invest in public transport A


nyone who has sat in Nairobis torturous trac during this rainy season must have wondered whether the city or Kenya for that matter has a transport policy. And even if there was one, is it being implemented? There are many reasons why Nairobi comes to a standstill the minute the rst drops of rain hit the ground. First is the fact that the citys drainage system leaves a lot to be desired. For some strange reason, contractors build roads, but fail to build drainage and pavements along the roads. (Shouldnt both these be part of the road-building contract?) On the road where I live, there are many drains, but some of them are so clogged up that when it rains, the drains overow onto the road, adding to the many potholes that have now started to appear, partly due to shoddy construction work, and also because the road becomes a seasonal river this time of the year. Second, and more importantly, all cities in Kenya, including Nairobi, do not have a reliable, safe, environment-friendly and regulated public transport system. Residents of cities are overly-dependant on privately-owned matatus which obey no rules and are not regulated. This means that anyone and I mean anyone can wake up one morning and decide to own a matatu. This adds to trac congestion on our roads. Because the matatus are individually owned, they are not subject even to those regulations that control big companies and the corporate sector, which means they enjoy a certain level of impunity that would never be tolerated in other more public transportfriendly cities or in places where litigation is a big deterrent to bad behaviour on the roads. Most well-functioning cities have public transport systems that are not just safe, but are non-motorised. Trains and trams in these countries are the preferred mode of transport, even among the rich. Trains can carry large numbers of people, and are more environmentfriendly than cars, buses and matatus. But in Kenya, the government has more or less killed o the railway that was bequeathed to us by the British. This means that our highways are full of trucks transporting goods to other countries as far away as the DR Congo. On a visit to the coast recently, I was saddened to see the railway line (which I often used in my youth) lying idle and unused while the main Mombasa-Nairobi highway was jam-packed with trucks. On a two-hour ride to Mombasa from Taita, I overtook at least 50 trucks. By my calculation, the highway is used by at least 1000, if not more, heavyduty trucks every single day. Who killed our beloved railway and why? In other countries (India comes to mind), the railway network left behind by colonialists was preserved and even improved on. It was not allowed to die. But this valuable asset has been allowed to rot in Kenya. This is just madness. In Taita, people complained about a road that was ocially opened amid much pomp and ceremony more than a year ago, but which has now been abandoned by the contractor.

Because matatus are individually owned, they are not subject to those regulations that control the corporate sector

This means that farmers who want to sell their produce in Voi or Mombasa have to use a diversion, which is longer and full of potholes. This has severely impacted on the economy of the region. No explanation has been given to the people of Taita as to why the road project was abandoned. Which doesnt mean that our parliamentarians are sleeping on the job. Last week, I received an email message announcing the new trac rule amendments that have been passed by Parliament. Driving on the pavement will risk a ne of Sh30,000 or three months in prison or both (matatu drivers, take note!) Drivers will are also required to take an eye test every three years (I wonder how this rule will be enforced). The problem is, what do we do about the police ocers who happily look the other way when given bribes? One solution to Nairobis horrendous trac congestion is to work from home. There is no reason why in this age of the Internet people whose work is done mainly on computers cant do it without leaving their houses or why meetings cant be scheduled on Skype. rasna.warah@gmail.com.

Our safeguard against the tyranny of the minority is to remain ever vigilant K
enya is moving towards another one of those historic junctions that happen only once or twice in a generation. This rare historical moment is the 50th anniversary of Independence next year, which coincides with the rst General Election held under the new Constitution and only the second electoral presidential transition. It is at crossroads moments like these that people ask themselves the all-important questions: Whats in it for me and mine, as a family unit? Whats in it for us as a region? And whats in it for us as a nation? It is also at moments like these that those regions of the country which have not enjoyed their fair share of the national economic cake quietly dread being marginalised all over again and being left even further behind. It is not only regions that get left behind. People too go adrift and lose their way, in all places and in all regions and at all times. Kenya has a second chance to extend the principles and the nets of equity and of inclusiveness. And this is where real leadership comes in. As leaders with vision, we must articulate our peoples deepest fears and accentuate their highest hopes. Anyone wishing to contribute to our future, a civil servant, a local or foreign businessperson, a young university graduate, a teacher, a farmer or a volunteer in an NGO can refer to Vision 2030 and select his or her point of entry. The justication for the Vision, the challenges we shall encounter, the resources and resolve that will be required as well as the destination are all described. We know the Kenya we want from modern health centres and small-scale manufacturing parks in rural areas, to training facilities producing world-class professionals, and a modern transportation infrastructure to bring positive change to all parts of Kenya. The new Constitution is the second guide to our future and it breaks with the past in fundamental ways, starting with the sharp separation of the three branches of government the Executive, the Legislative and the Judiciary and the strengthening of the latter two relative to the rst. The Constitution provides Kenyans with a Bill of Rights which forever changes the relationship between individual Kenyans and the State by spelling out the rights and responsibilities of each. It also delineates the functions of the n ational and

President Kibaki during the promulgation of the Constitution.


The coming changes and the envisaged transformation of Kenya are so crucial because the new order will also feature devolved government, complete with gubernatorial and senatorial institutions. Every missed opportunity and every seized opportunity will matter a great deal early under the new dispensation. Kenyans have been working on reforming our institutions for the better part of 20 years. One concrete result from this reform movement with its extensive consultations to collect the wisdom, hopes and aspirations of Kenyans was Vision 2030. This is our rst national guide towards a better quality of life for all, and we have already taken important steps towards realising this Vision.

county governments. The economic and political feasibility of devolution were piloted through the landmark initiative, the Constituency Development Fund. Kenyans accepted CDF enthusiastically, making it clear that they were ready for full-scale devolution in the conviction that whenever decisions on development are made close to the beneciaries, they are likely to reect the true aspirations of our people. It falls upon our generation to create and use all the institutions mandated by the new Constitution, make Vision 2030 a reality, and in the process, transform Kenya into a middle income country. The Constitution requires constant vigilance by Kenyans. Any of the three branches can be captured and driven by a disciplined minority to the detriment of the majority. Our only safeguard against the tyranny and dictatorship of the elite or a disciplined minority is to encourage Kenyans to always remain engaged. Nothing is more dangerous for a democracy than a passive, silent, or apathetic majority. Mr Tuju is a presidential aspirant on the Party of Action ticket.

THE PRESIDENCY | Mike Oliewo

Without a Pentagon, can Raila make it?

uring the disputed presidential elections of 2007, Mr Raila Odinga, then ODM ag-bearer, came close to occupying State House, which probably explains why chaos broke out when President Kibaki was declared winner after polling 4,619,768 votes against Mr Odingas 4,381,053. President Kibaki registered 46 per cent of the total valid votes cast while Raila followed him closely by scoring 44 per cent. In fact, Raila was beaten by only two percentage points, a razor-thin margin. In terms of provincial distribution of the votes, both Kibaki and Raila each carried four of the eight provinces. Kibaki won Nairobi, Central, Eastern and North Eastern, while Raila won Coast, Rift Valley, Western and Nyanza. Raila also scored over 25 per cent in six out eight provinces as he only failed to garner 25 per cent in Central and Eastern provinces. President Kibaki only failed to score 25 per cent in Nyanza. The good performance by Raila in the expansive Rift Valley was mainly attributed to the support he received from party stalwarts William Ruto, William ole Ntimama, Henry Kosgey, the late Kipkalya Kones, Sally Kosgei and Franklin Bett, among others. In Western Province, Railas good

performance he won three of four counties and 19 of the 24 constituencies was attributed to the support from Luhya leaders led by Mr Musalia Mudavadi, his then running-mate. In Coast Province, the Prime Minister won four out of six populous counties, including Mombasa, Kili, Kwale and Taita Taveta. He lost in Tana River and Lamu. In terms of constituencies, Raila took 17 out of 21 due to the support he received from Najib Balala, then a leading ODM light at the Coast, and because of the MoU he signed with Muslims. Other Pentagon members, Charity Ngilu and Joe Nyaga did not deliver any substantial votes for Raila as their regions were sealed by Kalonzo and Kibaki respectively. For the 2013 presidential elections,

alliances have shifted drastically. Besides Nyaga, the other four Pentagon members have parted ways with Raila. The question is: Can Raila perform the way he did in 2007 with the disintegration of the Pentagon? Though the opinion polls still indicate that Raila is the candidate to beat, they fail to reveal the candidates rating in all the 47 counties or in half or a third of them. Given that the voting trend in Kenya since 1992 tends to follow ethnic and/or regional trends, the exit of key Pentagon members, particularly Ruto and Mudavadi, could injure Railas third bid for the presidency. In 2007, Kalenjin and Luhya votes constituted 23 per cent and 15 per cent, respectively, of the total of Railas national votes, and combined 1.6 million votes representing an aggregate of 38 per cent. Though he may not lose all these votes, particularly in Western Province, which has never accorded any presidential candidate block votes since 1992, it will actually be a Herculean task for Raila to get a region that can compensate for such a huge loss.

His contact is Tel. 0734880434 or eric@ericgichuhi.com. NOT A DROP TO DRINK. The real irony about the heavy rains falling in Nairobi, Kate Brown notes, is that there has been water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink! Kate, acknowledging that many city residents have been whining about all manner of problems, would like anybody in the city water company to nd some time to explain to her why they should be rationing water. This is really appalling, adds Kate, whose contact is brownkate982@yahoo.com.
Have a logical day, wont you!

To the editor
Wanjiru did much to improve face of town
As the world commemorates the rst anniversary of Olympic marathon winner Samuel Wanjiru, the devastating eects of his untimely death are most felt in my home town, Nyahururu. The protracted dispute over sharing out of his hard earned wealth lingers. In addition to the long list of medals, his millions of shillings gave Nyahururu town and its environs the much needed facelift with a dazzling array of buildings. Many Nyahururu dwellers either beneted, at least indirectly, from his investments in the town. NJOROGE WA KIRATU, Nyahururu

TALKING POINT

MPs approval of graft team raises queries, but let them get to work
he endorsement of the three nominees to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission by Parliament despite claims of incompetence and lack of will and integrity is an indication that the ght against corruption is far from being won. At a time like this when reforms are needed in all public sectors, it was totally wrong to go ahead and approve the nominees before carrying out thorough investigations into their characters. If vetting is being carried out on judges in an eort to clean up the judiciary, I dont see why the same should not be done on people taking up the noble task of ghting graft. Bearing in mind that Mr Mumo Matemu appointment to head the agency was widely opposed by quite a number of MPs earlier on, it raises serious questions on his ability to deal with some of the most recent scandals like those involving NSSF and NHIF. It seems the majority MPs who unanimously supported the taking over of the oce by the three are looking forward to manipulating them once they assume duties. The case of former anti-corruption boss Patrick Lumumba is very fresh in our minds. The MPs passed a motion of nocondence in him when it appeared that he was stepping on the toes of people whose ministries were found to have misappropriated public funds. JOSHUA GITUMA, Ngusishi

Emails from correspondents

SHORT TAKES

DOG MEAT: Though I agree with Jean Gilchrist (Nation, May 12) that dog meat should not be oered for human consumption, I see the reason being more out of cultural rather than health concerns. Dog meat is a delicacy in some Asian countries and has never raised health issues there. As for dogs being mans best friend in Africa dogs are more of , a security provider. Should KSPCA visit rural areas they might nd dogs cleaning up after babies soil the compound. But people are entitled to full disclosure. TONY LAW, Nairobi WORLD ENDING: US President Barack Obama went astray by legalising same sex marriages since this is a sin. And so did Kenyas human rights organs who clamour for gay rights. They should not clash with Gods commandments. Homosexuality is a sin and nobody can twist that to be a right. Two towns were destroyed by God for practising homosexuality. Remember Sodom and Gomorrah. We will be going astray as a human race. We would be worse than animals if we allowed gayism? Is the world coming to an end? JUSTIN OSEY PETER, Mombasa LOST CHANCE: Im surprised and very disappointed that Yatta MP Charles Kilonzo did not take the opportunity to confront the visiting UK MPs with his irrefutable evidence of the plot to hand over President Kibaki to the ICC. Here was his chance to put the UK rmly in its place but he failed. Perhaps the evidence wasnt so strong after all. Or maybe he just chickened out Ei. ther way, his credibility is now zero. ANTHONY GITTENS, Kili LITERARY DESERT: That the new book on Samuel Kamau Wanjiru was written by non-Kenyans raises serious questions about our writers (me included). Where were we? Why didnt we see and seize the opportunity to chronicle the life of the young athlete? What happened to Kenyas once vibrant writers? Why have we not got a Ngugi wa Thiongo equivalent? The great political and economic changes we are experiencing usually serve as crucibles of literary ideas, the same way the industrial revolution spawned great writers like Charles Dickens and his contemporaries. Is the Internet to blame, is it laziness or lack of creativity? We cannot blame censorship any more. X. N. IRAKI, Nairobi

Motorists themselves cause the trac jams


As much as we blame the roads, the rain and the government, I think the biggest cause of trac jams is motorists themselves. The most irritating group is made of matatu and government vehicle drivers and the pea-brained individuals who overlap even when there is a good ow of trac. If a way for meting out quick justice on these crazy groups is found, 50 per cent of trac jams would be dealt with. Can individuals be allowed to take photos of these cars and post them to the police for action? We waste hours due to the incompetence of trac police. CHRISTOPHER KIBIWOTT, Nairobi

Justify its keep


The appointments of EAAC chair and commissioners have come at the right time to put the sector in order after the commission was sent into a spin following the end of contracts of the sta. The move to put in place what is most needed for this nation is worth praising, given that the ght against corruption was coming to a halt.

Youth campaign against tribalism a good idea


The campaign being spearheaded by the youth to keep tribalism at bay is worth the eort. They have now known the crucial role they can play to unite Kenyans. Young people must be tired of politicians who are out to incite them against each other and divide them along tribal lines. The Amani Kenya Campaign will also help tame short-sighted politicians who believe they can use their tribes to ascend to the presidency. The clause that demands that a presidential candidate must garner 25 per cent of the total votes cast in several counties will now force the power greedy politicians to reach out to other parts of the country as well.

lot from them. The revamped commission team must justify their keep. No time should be lost in hiring a new team to replace those whose contracts had lapsed. The problem as usual with our leaders is that they will want to politicise any appointments made. But the ball is now in the EACCs court after blame games in the House over the approval of nominees for appointment by the President. A good starting point for the new team is the NHIF scandal. VICTOR OTSIULA, Kakamega.

Gay marriage supporters against both God and African culture


Recent calls by the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights to decriminalise homosexuality and sex work is an insult to our African culture. It not only undermines our values but shows we still look up to the West before making decisions. These people should respect our culture and the Bible, which strongly forbids same-sex marriages. If the government heeds the KNCHR calls, then Kenya will change for the worst. First, the country will attract other people of the same nature just like it does investors whenever an opportunity shows up. Such people will inuence our moral values and the numbers of homosexuals will shoot up. These gay visitors will come with money and as a poor nation, most of us will run for the money not knowing we are being lured into evil. We are a poor country, yes, but then that does not mean that we sanction homosexuality so that we may get funding from the already evil nations who want us to join them in their evil tracks. We should be proud of who we are and of our culture. I was also disappointed by the opinion put forth by Prof Makau Mutua in his Sunday column yesterday urging President Kibaki and PM Raila Odinga to embrace the KNCHRs position on gayism and lesbianism. Lets be guided by Gods principles. SAMWEL BORN MAINA, Kisii

DEBATE QUESTION

Is the IEBC justied to request for Sh41 billion for the next elections?
DENNIS WAHOME: The IEBC is not justied to ask for that much money (Sh41 billion) to conduct the next General Election; we need also to move on after the elections and Kenyans dont expect to nd another harsh environment of ination and hunger because the government spent all the cash on elections. PETER WAFULA: Yes. It is a solemn duty of the IEBC to ensure that it takes all the precautionary measures regarding the elections, but they should ensure that they uphold transparency in their activities. KEVIN NYAMARI: If IEBC feels that Sh41 billion will make the election free and fare, no problem. CHARLES NZIOKA: Yes. The next General Election will be the mother of all elections.

Leaders push for revival of peace teams ahead of poll


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Nakuru
Leaders in Nakuru County want the government to revive peace committees ahead of the next General Election. According to the leaders who spoke separately over the weekend, utterances by some politicians could easily provoke animosity among communities in the county, which has since 1992 been an epicentre of ethnic violence. I was surprised by the intelligence report tabled in Parliament by Prime Minister Raila Odinga that there will be a repeat of electoral violence in hot spots. Such reports may cause more problems at a time when dierent communities in my constituency have decided to live peacefully, Molo MP Joseph Kiuna told a meeting in Likia, Njoro District The MP asked the government to revive peace committees with representatives from the grassroots who would go round preaching peace.

Knut urges police to guarantee the safety of residents in areas hit by rustling gangs
BY WYCLIFF KIPSANG
ncheploen@ke.nationmedia. com wkipsang@ke.nationmedia.com (Knut) in Baringo County led by branch executive secretary Charles Kamuren called on the government to beef up security in the area. The government has violated the rights of the child by not guaranteeing them their security as enshrined in the Constitution, said Mr Kamuren. He made the remarks when he addressed journalists in Kabarnet yesterday. Mr Kamuren said that the situation had been aggravated by yesterdays killing of a parent by suspected Pokot raiders at Tuluk in Bartabwa. The Knut ocials fear pupils from the area could perform dismally in national examinations if the situation is not addressed. Teachers in the cattle rustling-prone area have also been adversely affected and are no longer discharging their duties efficiently as they fear for their lives, said Knut Baringo branch chairman

Tension is high in Buuri sublocation Tigania East District, where gangs have been forcefully circumcising residents. Yesterday, a Form Three student was stabbed to death allegedly by the gang for opposing the retrogressive rites of passage. The residents held a demonstration at the district headquarters to protest against the killing and blamed the Provincial Administration for laxity in ghting insecurity. Area DC Michael Meru promised stern action against the gang.

Girls to get free pads in two weeks, says Ida


Prime Minister Raila Odingas wife Ida has assured all schoolgoing girls that the government will supply them with free sanitary pads in the next two weeks. Mrs Odinga said this at the weekend when she accompanied German Ambassador to Kenya Margit Hellwig-Boette on an inspection tour of schools in Kisumu slums that are funded by the German government. Supplying the girls with pads is also meant to curb school drop-outs and their rampant absence from class, Mrs Odinga said.

Mr Kiuna also asked the government to arrest those perpetrating ethnic hatred. Separately, the coordinator of Likia and Beyond Peace and Conict Resolution Council, Bishop Isaac Kariuki warned that in the absence of peace committees, politicians will divide the people with their utterances. Politicians have started regrouping in Gema and Kamatusa and what they are preaching is tribal hatred, which is very sensitive at this time, since elections are around the corner, Bishop Kariuki said in an interview. The government should revive peace committees so that they can counter politicians who are preaching tribal hatred, he said. He noted that National Cohesion and Integration Commission is yet to succeed in resolving ethnic rivalries in the Rift Valley region because it has been working with councils of elders who are not familiar with the situation at the grassroots.

Talks on Sh200m project to resume

MPs should not be paid after January, says Kiunjuri


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Nyeri
An assistant minister has backed calls to freeze MPs salaries on January 15 next year when their ve-year terms end. Public Works assistant minister Mwangi Kiunjuri, said it was the wish of parliamentarians to receive salaries until March, when the elections are expected, but said it would be misuse of public funds if they continued enjoying their emoluments. Let any MP who is willing to work until March do so voluntarily, but public funds should not be used to pay legislators when their term has ended, he said on Saturday. Mr Kiunjuri, who was speaking in Mweiga town, Nyeri County during a GNU party meeting, said since the term of Parliament ends on January 15, ve years since MPs were sworn in, salaries paid beyond that date would be in violation of the Constitution. Leaders are split between a December and March 2013 election date, but many MPs reportedly favour a March election as it extends their terms. At the same time, Mr Kiunjuri welcomed the appointment of the 47 county commissioners but called for clear separation of roles between them and governors. Gichugu MP Martha Karua has also backed calls to freeze MPs salaries beyond January and supports a December election.

Negotiations to start a controversial Sh200 million jatropha project that was stopped due to environmental concerns will resume soon, a minister has said. Fisheries Development minister Amason Kingi (above), who is also the Magarini MP, said he will lead the second round of negotiations with the new minister for Environment Chirau Ali Mwakwere. The project has been mired in controversy after conservation groups opposed it, saying it interferes with bird routes.

Suspicion over eets of vehicles plus the scores of hectares of land that the new president owns

BY TAMBA JEAN-MATTHEW
NATION Correspondent DAKAR, Sunday

enegals president Macky Sall like his predecessor Abdoulaye Wade could have chosen not to declare his assets, but the new leaders apparent quest to set the pace for a strict nancial discipline to buttress the democratic dividend is inextinguishable. By declaring his assets last week, the President seeks to obtain the legal credence he needed to set the country straight on the path to economic prosperity via the transparent management of the tourism and peanut-based economy. Beyond that, his government intends to pursue some mischievous ocials who turned millionaire during the periods of time they served under the regime of President Wade. Most importantly also, the 51 year-old leader intends to break clean from the practice of impunity for rogue government officials that characterised President Wades regime. The constitutional obligation on a Senegalese head of state to declare his or her assets exists since 2007 at the threshold of President Wades second mandate. That period was characterised by a whirlwind of allegations, claims and counter claims of rampant corruption and financial malpractices among politicians with no credible referee including in the kangaroo courts to hold them accountable for their acts. This situation spurred the civil

society to step into the picture and helped to broker plans for the elaboration of a constitutional project that required the president of Senegal to declare assets upon taking oce. The essence of the law was to help the public and auditors to take note of the personal wealth of a president at the time of assuming oce and at the moment of the presidents departure. In Cote dIvoire a similar law requiring the head of state to declare his assets exists, but President Alassane Ouattara, one of Africas leading bankers has still to yield on his possessions. In Senegal, President Macky Sall is apparently using the disposition as his Trojan horse in the fight against impunity, rampant corruption and to promote the spirit of accountability and set the precedence for future leaders to emulate. Hence on Thursday May 10, 2012, President Sall

Senegalese are quick to cast suspicion on wealth owned abroad by their compatriots and that is the case with President Salls apartment in Texas
El Hadj Hamidou Kasse, Presidents Spokesman

proceeded with the signature of decree no. 2012-502 which guarantees the setting up of a court for the rst time, to try graft suspects and particularly civil servants accused of illegally accumulating wealth. The presidential decree named a popular magistrate Mandiougou Ndiaye and nine other judges to administer the court while justice minister Aminata Tour heads the instruction commission of the court. But there is a strong wave of protest from the public not over President Salls insatiable quest to set up of a solid foundation for economic prosperity and financial discipline but over the authenticity of his declared private assets, all worth $2.6 million (KSh57m). The question is not over the fact that he is one million euros richer than Frances incoming President Franois Holland, but over the eet of 35 vehicles plus the scores of hectares of land he owns both in the chic Almady district of the Dakar and in the sprawling suburbs of Diamniado around the new airport. Doubts persist in the public opinion even though the Presidents men have tried to justify these assets by stating that they were acquired honestly. For nearly a decade, the France-trained engineer worked with prestigious petroleum and gas companies before taking up his first government job as minister of energy in 2002 through 2008 serving as internal affairs minister, premier for four years and president of the national assembly.

Senegalese are quick to cast suspicion on wealth owned abroad by their compatriots and that is the case with President Salls apartment in Texas, El Hadj Hamidou Kass explained. Mr Kass is the former EditorIn-Chief of the government daily Le Soleil who is now a presidential spokesman. Touching on the fleet of vehicles, President Sall had explained that most of them were acquired as gifts from his party supporters mostly emigrants working in the diamond and gold sector in central Africa where he had spent some time ahead of the presidential poll that he won against his former mentor. Dont forget that I have a wife who is also a technocrat and makes my financial life easier, secured and certain, President Sall told reporters in the aftermath of his declaration of assets. The other question bogging President Sall is the appointment of Judge Mandiogou Ndiaye, his hometown relative who has had a murky past in his career. The presidential decree named Judge Ndiaye to head the court for the repression of illegal wealth. During ex-president Wades regime, Judge Ndiaye was relieved of his post as president of the appeals court for turning a blind eye to a bail for a Senegalese con man who duped a Tunisian investor of 350 million francs (about $200,000) TO COMMENT ON THESE AND OTHER STORIES GO TO www.nation.co.ke

Threats of revolt over rigged Algeria poll


Islamist parties lose ground, giving them only a combined 59 seats in assembly
ALGIERS, Sunday
n Algerian Islamist leader said today that a Tunisian-style revolt was the only option after polls he charged were fraudulent and threatened a mass pullout of the smaller parties from parliament. These results closed the door on change by the ballot box and the Tunisian option is all thats left for those who believe in change, Mr Abdallah Djaballah, who heads the Front for Justice and Development, told AFP. His party mustered only seven seats out of the 462 up for grabs in the national assembly, according to provisional results for Thursdays legislative election. The former single party, President Abdelaziz Bouteikas National Liberation Front, tightened its grip on power by securing 220 seats. Mr Djaballah had hoped to benet from the so-called Arab Spring eect and emulate the electoral gains recorded by Islamist parties in neighbouring countries. But Algeria bucked the regional trend, largely preserving the political status quo in polls that even saw Islamist parties lose ground, with all seven parties contesting the vote managing only a combined 59 seats. These elections are a farce. We dot not recognise these results... They create a situation of insecurity and instability, Djaballah said.

After a campaign marked by deep voter disaection, many Algerians argue that the interior ministrys results were manipulated and far removed from reality after a campaign marked by deep voter disaffection.

Wade to sue activist over claims


BY TAMBA JEAN-MATTHEW
NATION Correspondent DAKAR, Sunday Ex-president Abdoulaye Wade has vowed to sue one of Senegals leading civil society activists for claiming that the ousted government was concealing several million of dollars in the Arab world. Media reports on Saturday quoted the former president as describing the allegations as baseless, false and designed to tarnish my reputation. Ex-president Wade had remained mute for weeks over the accusations made by Counsellor Moussa Flix Sow, the assistant coordinator of the Civil Forum. Mr Sow had specifically said that the sum of 430 billion francs, approximately 215 million dollars was held in bank accounts belonging to ministers of the former government with the knowledge of ex-president Wade. But the former leader had ostensibly decided to respond to the allegation following the setting up of a court to investigate monies illegally obtained by civil servants. President Macky Sall set up the court on Thursday via a presidential decree and named ten prominent judges to administer the court under the supervision of the justice minister Madam Aminata Traor. In a reaction also to the allegation on Saturday, Senegals Prime Minister Abdoul Mbaye it is impossible that such an amount would stay out of this countryeverything will be done to investigate and retrieve the money., Meanwhile, Mr Sow who is a former assistant dean of the association of lawyers of Senegal said he stands by his allegations and was awaiting for the complaint from former president Wade.

A year later, things get worse for ex-IMF chief


Strauss-Kahn now experiencing life as an ordinary man after stay at the top
NEW YORK, Sunday
ime doesnt heal for Dominique Strauss-Kahn. Things only get worse. On Monday, exactly a year will have passed since his arrest on charges of trying to rape a maid in a luxury New York hotel room. Those charges were dropped and in September the French politician and freshly resigned head of the International Monetary Fund returned to Paris a free man. Supporters thought this consummate mover and shaker could still recover, perhaps become champion of Frances Socialist Party and defeat the vulnerable President Nicolas Sarkozy in upcoming elections. A Socialist did beat Sarkozy last week but it wasnt Strauss-Kahn. Instead, Strauss-Kahn will watch Francois Hollande sworn in as president on Tuesday, and will only be able to think: That could have been me. The fabulous life of power and privilege Strauss-Kahn enjoyed up to May 14 last year has been rmly yanked away. He has not set foot again in the United States, where he once enjoyed a luxury lifestyle as head of the IMF. And while the criminal charges have been dropped, the maids dogged lawyers are pursuing a civil lawsuit for unspecied damages. Strauss-Kahn, whose highpowered legal team deftly undermined the maids criminal case last year, was helpless earlier this month when a judge rejected his claim to diplomatic immunity, ordering the civil trial to go ahead. For the rst time in many years, Strauss-Kahn is experiencing life as an ordinary man whose time in the limelight is only tinged with bad memories.

Maid ordered to stay silent


Former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Khan leaves the State Supreme Court, in New York, in this May 19, 2011 photo.
If US sex crime charges didnt quite kill his career, French pimping charges apparently did. The silver-haired VIP, the world figure and one-time president-in-waiting was accused of leading a double life in which prostitutes luggage, he called them in a text message were ferried to orgies. Strauss-Kahn denied involvement in a prostitution ring. He said he thought the young women at those orgies were there voluntarily. Strauss-Kahn then played the ultimate victim card. In the midst of the fevered French election he gave an interview suggesting that Sarkozy had orchestrated his political demise. But that appeared to have had little effect other than to inflict collateral damage on his wife Anne Sinclair, an heiress and TV news personality. (AFP)

Almost invisible a year later is the Guinean maid whose accusation touched o the drama. Nassatou Diallo (pictured) gave a string of interviews last year to push her case against StraussKahn. Now her lawyers are keeping her under wraps. They are playing a long game that will keep Strauss-Kahn from getting comfortable quickly: the trial may not even start for about 15 months, according to the presiding judge.
In his native France, life is even more fraught. At rst it was assumed he would nd refuge on home soil. Supporters painted StraussKahn as the real victim, an honorable statesman abused by an out-of-control US judicial system. But then a new sex scandal erupted and this time it was in France.

Cubas Raul Castro backs gay rights


HAVANA, Sunday
Cuban President Raul Castro backs greater gay rights and ending discrimination against homosexuals, his daughter Mariela, a famed sexologist, said yesterday during a colourful gay rights march in Havana. He has done some advocacy work, speaking of the need to make progress in terms of rights based on sexual orientation and gender identity, Mariela Castro told reporters. The Cuban president... has been talking about this issue, but he has not made it public. It is surely part of his strategy, she added, when asked if her father backed her campaign to legalize civil unions for gays and lesbians. He himself has said that... we cannot make progress if we continue to live with these prejudices. Mariela Castro runs Cubas National Center for Sex Education and is an outspoken advocate for the rights of homosexuals and transsexuals in Communistruled Cuba. She is pushing for passage of legislation that would legalize same-sex unions, but stops short of endorsing gay marriage. She is hopeful that lawmakers will take up the bill sometime this year. The presidents daughter led a colorful conga line that was part of a march through the streets of Havana. (AFP)

MINISTRY OF ENERGY

PUBLIC NOTICE
ALIGNMENT OF THE ENERGY SECTOR POLICY WITH THE CONSTITUTION OF KENYA
The Constitution of Kenya, 2010 substantially changed the governance structure as well as enhanced participation by citizens in the decision making processes. This has necessitated the need to review the energy sector policy and legal framework so as to align them with the Constitution. Pursuant to the above need, on the 28th January 2011, the Ministry of Energy, set up a Task Force made up of various stakeholders within the Energy Sector. The mandate of the Task Force is to review the Energy Policy (Sessional Paper No. 4 of 2004), the Energy Act 2006 and related Subsidiary Legislation and to align them with the Constitution. The Terms of Reference of the Task Force include: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

France and Greece out to change Europe


Francois Hollande and Alexis Tsipras have one thing in common: They loathe scal austerity

Miss Fiji dumped over age not race


Fiji beauty queen Torika Watters, who was the target of racist criticism about her looks, has been replaced as the island nations Miss World Pageant entrant, organisers were reported saying on Sunday. But they said the issue was her age and not connected to complaints that the 16-year-old of mixed EuropeanFijian heritage did not look Fijian enough. Watters was chosen last month ahead of a eld of indigenous women by a judging panel that including New Zealand supermodel Rachel Hunter, a former wife of Rod Stewart, and other non-Fijians. (AFP)

wo politicians have within a week thrown the spanner into the eurozones prevailing economic thinking. It isnt all that bad. One is Francois Hollande, to be sworn as French president tomorrow. He chased the diminutive but combative Nicholas Sarkozy from office with a 51.6 per cent election victory a week ago. Unlike the 58-year-old Hollande, an old timer in the French Socialist Party politics, Greek Alexis Tsipras is a newcomer to parliamentary politics. His Synaspismos party and allied Coalition of the Radical Left emasculated the leading political parties in election last Sunday, making formation of a government impossible. The helicopter-like political ascent of Mr Tsipras, 37, is impressive. He rose from the Communist Youth of Greece to head a parliamentary party at 33. He entered Parliament three years ago. His ability to manage national aairs though remains unknown. Greece isnt an economic shaker in the eurozone or Europe. France is. However, Mr Hollande and Mr Tsipras have one thing in common: they loathe scal austerity. Thats tight control of

government spending. German Chancellor Angela Merkel is the leading proponent. Unfortunately, her sidekick, Sarkozy, is in a political freezer. Governments cant raise all the money they need from their main source of income: taxes. Consequently, they borrow or issue bonds to meet the decit. Debts and bonds arent a problem par se. The problem comes when governments fail to meet repayment schedules or the value of bonds decline to levels that make investors consider them junk. For reasons known to economists and financial wizards, trouble begins when a countrys debt hits 7 per cent of the Gross Domestic Product. At $661.6 billionlots of money in any language--Greeces debt hit 160 percent of the GDP. Athens couldnt meet repayment schedules. There are several ways of dealing with the problem. They include rescheduling, reducing government spending, declaring bankruptcy, and getting a consortium of nations,

Radical left party leader, Alexis Tsipras leaves the presidential palace in Athens after the meeting of the three top parties with the Greek president yesterday.
multilateral lenders like the International Monetary Fund and regional organizations member states, for a bailout. Bailouts arent free and conditions are attached. Greece isnt the only eurozone country facing this problem. Portugal and Spain are most hit. Italy is staring at one. France, one of Europes top borrowers, fears its headed there.

including the sick, on deck. Better nd a cure for the sick and fast. The cure for the sick members is bailout. Conditions include massive cuts on government spendingausterity. That means many people have lost benets and jobs. They are angry and have voted out political parties responsible. Greek voters were especially vicious. Mr Tsipras, who has described the agreement for the Greek bailout null and void, is riding this wave. However, hes yet to oer an alternative. Hollande, more mellowed by age and temperament, has offered a sweetener to austerity policies, an element of growth. A Portuguese editor has provided a good rationale for this approach in rather apocalyptic language: Austerity brings more recession, which brings austerity that brings more austerity and then you are eating your babies and your sons. Luckily, thats a long shot. Already, a few socialist politicians in other European nations have welcomed Mr Hollandes idea that austerity policies shouldnt be considered the only option. New thinking is inevitable. Thats progress. (cmbitiru@hotmail.com)

he moment Frances president-elect Francois Hollande is sworn in on Tuesday, he leaves his cosy post-election no-mans land for potentially bruising encounters on the European and world stage. Hours after naming a prime minister, Frances rst Socialist leader since 1995 will y to Berlin for talks with Chancellor Angela Merkel, an ally of the man he defeated last week, centre-right president Nicolas Sarkozy. Mr Hollande campaigned on a pledge to renegotiate the eurozones scal pact agreed in March, which binds member states to austerity measures and which Merkel argues is essential to underpin the continents eventual recovery. The meeting between the leaders of Europes economic powerhouses will be closely watched by European Union partners and by the nancial markets that Hollande declared during campaigning were the enemy. We have positions that are not yet converging, Hollande admitted on Thursday of his upcoming talks with Merkel, while German ocials have sought to play down the encounter. Its, of course, not a decision-making meeting but a getting-to-know-you meeting, a rst gettogether, Merkels spokesman Steen Seibert said on Friday. Merkel wants to hear Hollandes ideas about scal discipline and the promotion of economic growth and jobs, Seibert said. Ideas raised at their talks are expected to be developed at an informal EU dinner summit on May 23 with a possible growth deal to be announced at the full-edged EU summit on June 28 and 29. Market analysts are reassured that Hollande does not reject the budgetary pact itself, but simply wants to add growth stimulus measures, and traders are also keen to avert a vicious circle of recession and austerity. Ahead of the talks, Hollande, who has no

ministerial experience, this week met with the head of the Eurogroup of eurozone nance ministers, Luxembourg Prime Minister JeanClaude Juncker, and EU president Herman Van Rompuy He has also consulted Italian caretaker Prime Minister Mario Monti who supports both Merkels austerity and Hollandes call for growth and could work as a mediator between competing ideologies within the EU. Hollande was forced on the defensive on Friday when the European Commission warned Frances weak growth was slowing and would struggle to reach 1.3 percent of GDP next year, less than the 1.7 percent Hollande has forecast. Michel Sapin, author of Hollandes election manifesto, said that Brussels pessimism was based on the poor performance of Sarkozys government and that the new team would do better than the EU forecast. If it is perceived that France is struggling to meet its targets, bond markets might express their concern in the form of higher interest rates on the borrowing Paris relies on to fund its decit-spending. (AFP) WASHINGTON MEETING

New leader wants Nato policy change


President Obama is to receive Mr Hollande at the White House for talks during the day on Friday, before they join other G8 leaders from Britain, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan and Russia for talks at Camp David outside Washington. Mr Hollande has already caught ak for saying he will bring forward the withdrawal of French troops from the NATO-led coalition in Afghanistan from the end of 2014 to the end of 2012. Frances 3,400 troops form the fth largest contingent in the 130,000strong US-led force battling the Taliban, but Kabul has downplayed the eect of their early departure, saying Afghan troops are ready to take over.

South Africa set to be Kenyas fastest growing tourist market


Number of visitors from Europe and US stagnating due to an economic crisis that is eating into revenues in the sector
BY MUTHOKI MUMO IN SOUTH AFRICA
mumumo@ke.nationmedia.com ister, Ms Cecily Mbarire. She added that 44 per cent of South African tourists visiting Kenya came on business related excursions. She was speaking on Saturday on the sidelines of a tourism marketing event in Durban. Dubbed Indaba, the event attracted 13,000 exhibitors from across the world. It is Africas largest tourism trade show and the third largest tourism marketing event in the world. 20 Kenyan companies are exhibiting at the trade show. Growth in the number of South African tourists visiting Kenya is reective of a positive trend in regional tourism on the continent. In 2011, African source markets contributed 24 per cent of total arrivals to Kenya. Uganda had the highest number of arrivals followed by South Africa and Tanzania. Meanwhile, South Africa reported 32.7 per cent growth in tourists from Nigeria and 45 per cent growth in tourist numbers from Tanzania. Kenyans travelling to South Africa during the period increased from 29,089 in 2010 to 30,279 in 2011, marking a 4.1 per cent increase. On Saturday, South Africas tourism ministry revealed a plan to invest Sh2.2 billion in marketing the country across the continent. The government is also planning ve regional tourism marketing hubs. Insiders revealed that Nairobi might be one of those hubs. THE FIGURES

Kenya tops Africa in mobile payments


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Kenya ranks top in Africa in readiness to adopt mobile payments, a new report shows. Out of 34 countries analysed globally on their readiness to use person to person, mobile-web commerce (m-commerce) and mobile contact-less payments at points of sale, the MasterCard Mobile Payments Readiness Index identied Singapore, Canada, the United States, Kenya and South Korea as the most prepared nations. The MPRI, compiled by MasterCard Global Insights between October 2011 and February 2012, says consumer readiness is the critical success factor to drive mobile payments adoption, with Kenya ranking fourth globally, and rst in Africa, in this regard. Kenyan consumers very high levels of familiarity with and frequent usage of mobile payments makes this nation the top score on the surveys Consumer Readiness component, MasterCard Worldwide, East Africa and Indian Ocean Islands Vice President Charlton Goredema noted. The Index positioned markets readiness for global payments on a scale of 0 to 100, with the global average settling at 33.2. The Kenyan market scored 40.4 on this scale. This is well above the average and a little more than one point behind the US, which came in at 41.5 but ahead of Nigeria and South Africa, two African markets surveyed.

Tourists visiting within the region


Numbers: Number of tourists from South Africa to Kenya increased by 16 per cent last year, while those from Kenya to the country rose by 4.1 per cent Africa: African source markets contributed 24 per cent of total arrivals to Kenya led by Uganda. S.Africa: South Africa reported 32.7 per cent growth of tourists from Nigeria and 45 per cent growth from Tanzania investment: Sh2.2 will be spent by South Africa to market the country across the continent

he number of tourists visiting Kenya from South Africa grew by 28 per cent in the rst three months of 2012, as part of growing intra-regional tourism on the African continent. Industry players are seeking to capitalise on this growth, even as traditional source markets in Europe threaten to stagnate in the face of an economic crisis that is eating into revenues in the sector. While the number of tourists from South Africa grew by 16 per cent last year, traditional source markets such as France, Italy, the US and Germany recorded declining market shares. South Africa is set to become our fastest growing source market in the region. We are investing and marketing heavily in the country, said Tourism assistant min-

UN introduces new rules to curb land grabs in Africa by western rms


BY PAUL REDFERN
NATION Correspondent LONDON New rules which will try to protect poor farmers in Africas historic land rights from acquisitions by large western multinational companies have been introduced by the United Nations. However, the new UN guidelines for rich countries buying land in developing nations are only voluntary and have already been criticised by international aid agencies. The issue is a growing concern in East Africa where thousands of acres of land in Kenya and Tanzania, in particular, have been bought by large multinational companies, often for growing of controversial biofuel crops. The guidelines agreed to by the UNs Food and Agriculture organisation on Friday called on governments to protect the rights of indigenous peoples who use the land. The UN says the new agreement endorsed a set of far-reaching global guidelines to help governments protect the rights of people, especially the poor, to own or access land, forests and sheries. Giving poor and vulnerable people secure and equitable rights to access land and other natural resources is a key condition in the ght against hunger and poverty, said the director-general of the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), Jos Graziano da Silva. It is a historic breakthrough that countries have agreed on these rst-ever global land tenure guidelines, he added. We now have a shared vision. Its a starting point that will help improve the often dire situation of the hungry and poor. Among the issues in the guidelines is the socalled land-grabbing phenomenon, according to a news releaseby FAO. It recommends that safeguards should be put in place to protect the tenure rights of local people from risks that could arise from large-scale land acquisitions, and also protect human rights, livelihoods, food security and the environment.

POWER | Generation to get boost

Kindaruma dam upgrade on its last lap


Improved facility to increase output from 40MW to 72MW by June
BY IMMACULATE KARAMBU
ikarambu@ke.nationemdia.com airobi residents could soon enjoy improved power supply once an upgrade of the Kindaruma power station that begun two years ago is complete. State-owned electricity generating company said it was planning to commission the rehabilitated dam by the end of the first-quarter of this year. Construction is almost complete and the dam should be ready for commissioning by June, said Ms Elizabeth Njenga, KenGens capital planning manager. The upgrade is expected to give the dam a total installed capacity of 72 megawatts, up from the existing 40 megawatts, representing an increase of 80 per cent in capacity. The project entails rehabilitation of the two existing turbine generator units and the installation of the third one, which will boost output of the power station from 40 megawatts to 72 megawatts, read a statement from KenGen. The dam was originally de-

Kenya sitting on untapped raw materials, says report


BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
Kenya is sitting on untapped raw materials that are being shipped out of the country only to be imported back as nished goods, increasing its economic vulnerability according to a new report. The report, Africa Investor Report 2011, released by the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (Unido,) noted that it is ironical that foreign countries are seeking more investment opportunities in the country while local market players depend on exporting natural resources and primary commodities. The report which was launched by Industrialisation minister Amason Kingi at KenInvest grounds, comes at a time when Kenya has been favourably placed as a hub for investments in the world by various reports. For rapid achievement in investments and industrial diversication in the country to be realised, adequate national structures have to be set in place, the report says These systems also known as Investment Promotion Agencies should attract quality investments in productive sectors and mobilise supportive business services to open doors between economic sectors; hence, promoting the country as competitive and attractive hub for foreign direct investments.

Structures

signed and constructed with a provision for three turbine generator units but only two have been functioning. The upgrade is being conanced by KenGen and the German Development Bank, kfw to the tune of Sh3.93 billion with kfws input being in the form of a repayable loan. Ms Njenga says KenGens financial input is sourced from the money realised in the Sh15 billion public infrastructure bond the rm issued in 2009.

Expert urges debate on Facebooks impact


WASHINGTON, SUNDAY
Facebooks big stock offering on Wall Street must be followed by an intensive debate on Main Street about social medias powerful impact on children, an expert on the topic says. Jim Steyer, founder of Common Sense Media, a San Francisco think tank focusing on media and families, said the technology that Facebook represents is having an enormous impact on youngsters, families and schools worldwide. We need to have a big national, if not global conversation about the pros and cons of that, Mr Steyer, a father of four who is also a civil rights lawyer and Stanford University professor, told AFP. While social media such as Facebook, Google Plus and Twitter oer extraordinary possibilities in such areas as education, he said, there are also real downsides in a social, emotional and cogitative development way. Hopefully, after the urry of the IPO and after the valuation of Facebook is done, then we can have a very serious ongoing discussion of what this means, he said. Mr Steyer was in Washington to promote his just-published book Talking Back to Facebook: The Common Sense Guide to Raising Kids in the Digital Age, which argues for greater parental involvement in their childrens online lives. Whether we like it or not, kids are now spending far more time with media and technology than they are with their families or in school, as much as eight hours a day on average in the United States alone, he wrote.

The United Nations Security Council and the African Union adopt various measures and instruments geared towards maintaining and securing peace and security. One of the standard instruments used is Peace Support Operations. APSTA contribution in PSOs Training is an important component in PSOs. For PSOs to be effective there is need for coordination, standardization and harmonization of the training approaches. Working with the African Union (AU) and its Regional Economic Communities/Mechanisms, APSTA endeavours to ensure that this objective is achieved across its membership. Indeed, the vision of APSTA is to promote and harmonise training for PSOs that will eventually contribute towards a peaceful and stable Africa.

YOUR STARS
AQUARIUS | JAN 21 - FEB 19 Due to a clash in the heavens you could run smack into some kind of trouble, but often what happens is the exact opposite. You are lucky that someone cares enough about you to worry that you may get hurt by those who are clearly capable of sweet talking you into literally anything at the moment. PISCES | FEB 20 - MAR 20 You may nd that your progress in some areas of life is blocked, stymied or just frustrated. Whatever happens today, dont take it to heart: by the time you wake up tomorrow you will have a fresh outlook on life and will be feeling much more bouncy as a result. ARIES | MAR 21 - APR 20 It seems that nothing will go as you expected today, so you need to be prepared and exible at the moment. There might only be time to say a quick hello. On a deeper level, what occurs now suggests that seeing certain individuals wont give you as much pleasure as you had anticipated. TAURUS | APR 21 - MAY 20 More attention seems to be coming your way but you may also feel undermined about one project. There is no sense in getting het up or becoming too pushy: much better to coast along keeping an eye on practical details. GEMINI | MAY 21 - JUNE 21 It is quite likely that you no longer feel that you can live by the same philosophy which has guided you in the past, but you may be unclear about what to put in its place. Bear in mind that the astrological set up today is likely to make all the dierence. CANCER | JUN 22 - JULY 22 If you feel that you are controlling your emotions try to channel your energies into constructive outlets wherever possible. Make your own decisions, and walk your own way in life. You are probably feeling insecure, but you have no need to feel anxious at all. LEO | JULY 23 - AUG 22 The stars will be in your chart devoted to matters related to abroad legal aairs and your aspirations if you have chosen to go on a holiday at this time, you will denitely get good value for money as well as nding much scope for holiday romance. .VIRGO | AUG 23 - SEP 23 Protecting your own security while being willing to compromise with close partners is not going to be easy. You feel pulled in several directions all at the same time. Whatever you do dont let sentimentality get in your way. LIBRA | SEP 24 - OCT 23 Sometimes you feel as if you are not standing on very solid ground but the good news is that in the long term, you will be able to build a solid basis for yourself both emotionally and nancially. The important thing to do now is to be adaptable and go with the ow. SCORPIO | OCT 24 - NOV 22 You normally like to go full steam a head, but this approach to life does not seem to be going that well at the moment. Not only is there a good deal of confusion around you, but you are also being pushed into having to be more practical.This is something you dislike, but it is unavoidable at present. SAGITTARIUS | NOV 23 - DEC 21 The last few weeks or so are likely to have seen some amazing transformations for you. However, the planetary setup today is holding a sway and it is quite clear that you need to make up your mind what you want for yourself. CAPRICORN | DEC 22 - JAN 20 There seems to be a certain amount of confusion and muddle which needs to be cleared up before you can forge a head. As a Capricorn, you always dash through life, and you are not always as scrupulous or as thorough as you could be.

NAIROBI CITY WATER & SEWERAGE COMPANY LTD.

WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION TO NAIROBI


In reference to the ongoing water supply interruption affecting the upper parts of Nairobi the Nairobi City Water & Sewerage Company would like to inform its esteemed customers that the water supply situation has been aggravated by the washing away of the supply pipes from Sasumua Dam at Kariminu River in Gakoe forest. Consequently, we have revised the water distribution management programme to ensure the affected customers receive water for 36 hours every week except Karen, and areas along Naivasha road e.g. Riruta, Satellite, Kawangware, Dagoretti Corner which will receive water for 24 hours per week. We further advice that the following areas will not receive piped water until the Sasumua water supply system is reinstated: Kitsuru, Loresho, Spring Valley, Lower Kabete, Gigiri, New Muthaiga, Roselyn, Nyali, Kenya Institute of Administration, University of Nairobi Lower, Upper Kabete Campus, The International School and the surrounding areas The Company has also taken the following measures to ensure water supply is available in the vicinity of the affected customers:1. Activation of all the boreholes in the affected areas. This will enable the customers draw water from boreholes in case they exhaust what is supplied through the pipes. 2. Mobilization of 16 water tankers to supplement the supply to customers in the areas which will not be receiving water through the pipes. 3. Placement of 15 collapsible water tanks in the informal settlements and other areas e.g. Kawangware chiefs office, Deep Sea, Dagoretti Market, Kangemi and Uthiru Market amongst others. In addition, chlorine tablets for water disinfection will be distributed to the surrounding residents in the named areas. 4. Besides our normal 24 hour customer care centre, the Company has established a crisis management centre at Kabete Water Treatment Works along Waiyaki Way opposite Kianda School to receive all complaints for immediate action. Customers affected are therefore urged to contact this centre by calling the following phone numbers 0716 506 954 or 0716 506 955 Any inconveniences are regretted and we urge our customers to exercise patience as the works to reinstate the damaged water supply pipelines is completed. The ongoing works are expected to take 14 days if the weather permits. Managing Director

second with Finn Kimi Raikkonen in third as Maldonado made the most of inheriting pole position from Lewis Hamilton after the Briton was relegated to the back of the pack on Saturday. McLaren driver Hamilton finished in eighth place at over a minute behind as Maldonado won a thrilling duel with Ferraris former two-time world champion Alonso. Alonsos runner-up place gave him 18 points and the championship lead at the expense of defending world champion Sebastian Vettel, who was sixth in a Red Bull having started from seventh on the grid. Maldonathat a considerable improvement was on the cards, her morale boosted by training with the new Kenyan record holder, Mary Keitany. Her condence was high as she went through 10k in 32:47, a tempo which would have taken her to a 2:18 clocking and into the same realm of performance as Keitany. At halfway, Cheromei was through in an impressive 1:09:22 so the dream of becoming the seventh woman and fourth Kenyan - to break 2:20 this year was still feasible. Kiprop was one minute, four seconds behind and Chepchirchir a further 22 seconds adrift. Kiprop confessed her surprise, post-race, to nd herself drawing alongside her training partner just after 38k. Kiprop said: I didnt expect it because I thought Lydia would win but when I caught her, she said, go on, Im having problems with my leg. Victory marks a remarkable recovery for Kiprop, who dropped out of the Boston Marathon at 22k on April 16, suering what was diagnosed later in Kenya as an attack of typhoid. Deressa Chimsa carries a considerable amount of muscle on his upper body for a distance runner and he showed a prize ghters swagger in breaking away from a leading group of eleven shortly before 25k. Runnerup Stephen Tum was happy as well, having improved his winning debut in Marrakech on January 29 by one minute, 35 seconds. (Globerunner)

Kenyan shines in Prague Marathon as Ethiopias Chimsa wins mens crown
Prague xpectations were confounded as Kenyas Agnes Kiprop won the womens title in the VW Prague Marathon yesterday while the hopes of compatriot Lydia Cheromei of a 2:20 performance or better were dashed. Kiprop, who had dropped out of the Boston Marathon last month, suering from typhoid, won in 2:25: 41 from Filomena Chepchirchir and Ethiopias Meseret Debele. Cheromei, caught by Kiprop between 38km and 39km, dropped out soon after, suering from a leg injury.

Kenya Prisons make it to quarters with one match to spare


BY SAMMY KITULA
skitula@ke.nationmedia.com enya Commercial Banks hopes of a quarter-nal berth at the CAVB African Womens Clubs Championships at the Kasarani gymnasium were dealt a blow following a 3-2 (22-25, 25-23, 25-17, 17-25, 15-11) loss to Madagascar Stef Auto in a crucial Pool B match yesterday afternoon. With this defeat, the Kenyan team, the only of the three representatives to lose thus far, must beat Rwanda Revenue Authority in the last group match to

advance. In Pool C, Canon of DR Congo beat Varieties of Gabon 3-0 (25-6, 25-7, 25-8) to record their second victory of the tournament. We will be back. This is a minor setback, but we must ght on to the end, KCBs head coach, Paul Gitau said. In another match, Kenya Prisons made it to the quarter-nals with a match to spare after they defeated ASP of Cameroon 3-0 (25-12, 25-13, 25-17). Despite leading 5-1, KCB watched in awe as their four point-lead was reduced serve after another, and tie 6-6. A raucous crowd cheered on the hosts as Mercy Nduati and Dorine Khaemba played strong supporting roles. With the visitors ahead 14-13, the Kenyans took a time-out. A block by Rasa-

miarisoa and a serve that was long by KCB, Ste Auto made it 16-14 at the second TTO. Jecinta Macheso, libero Nduati and Dorice Muyekho found it hard to contain Noela Andriamanona, Delina Alfred and Jessie Ralaivahoakas erce spikes. A deected spike by captain Eunice Maiyo cut KCBs decit to 19-17, but Steff Auto kept the pressure on with a spike by Melisa Rambony. The second set when back and forth early. Lack of proper positioning and back court defence by Gaudencia Makhoha and Eliza Karugu and a net serve by Khaemba, enabled the visitors ensure a 9-9 parity. As if that wasnt enough, Maiyo and Makhoha failed to protect Karugu at the net, as Raharimalalas thunderous spike

landed squarely on her chest as the ladies in white led 16-12 at the second TTO. Then, Karugu sent a serve long for 24-23 as they, took the set 25-21. Buoyed by that parity in set wins, the hosts carried the momentum from the second set into the third whereKarugus ve consecutive service points were enough for the bankers to seal the set 25-17, but werent enough to secure them a win.

Todays games: At Kasarani: 2pm: Nkumba (Ug) v Pipeline (Ken), 4pm: KCB (Ken) v Revenues (Rwa), 6pm: Stella (CIV) v Stef Auto (Madagascar). At Nazarene: 2pm: Canon (DRC) v FAP, 4pm: Motema (Congo DR) v Blue Eagles (Nigeria), 6pm: Jeshi (Tz) v Varieties.

Address insecurity to save local cricket


Eventually, there is some good news for Pakistan and Associate and Afliate countries from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the powerful Indian cricket board that reportedly engineered the sacking of Arjuna Ranatunga as the head of the Sri Lanka Cricket because of his opposition to Indian Premier League. Sri Lankas English language daily, The Island, quoting SLC documents, said Sri Lankas World Cup-winning captain Ranatunga was removed after the BCCI applied pressure on the Sri Lankan government. His sin? He requested for Sri Lankas players to return early from the 2009 Indian Premier League to play against England in a Test series whose dates were clashing with those of the lucrative league. As concerns Pakistan, the BCCI is ready to accommodate a team from Pakistan in the Champions League Twenty20 which is for India in October. The BCCI is the biggest stakeholder in the Champions League Twenty20 which it co-owns with Cricket Australia and Cricket South Africa. During its working committee meeting last week, BCCI also decided to set up matches between IPL teams and Associate and Aliate countries. Kenya, which is being deemed as a security concern. It is just the other day that Mike Hesson, the national team coach resigned over security reasons, and shortly afterwards, it emerged that matches between Kenya and Namibia have been postponed due to security reasons. Even though Hessons resignation over insecurity was widely reported in the world media, more so in the countries whose nationals make the bulk of tourists visiting Kenya, no government functionary has come forward to clarify that Kenya is safe, or to deny that Kenya is unsafe. Whether true or not, statements that Kenya is unsafe need to be addressed for the good of the game of cricket in particular, and sports in general. But then, sports is not the only sector that will suer as long as the relevant authorities continue to bury their heads in the sand.

Police dominate boxing contest


BY FRANCIS MUREITHI
fmureithi@ke.nationmedia.com Kenya Police boxing team, popularly known as Chafua Chafua made clear their intentions of retaining the national InterProvincial League title when they hit hosts Nakuru ABC 139 at Nakurus Madison Square Garden on Saturday night. Nakuru ABC, who have been undergoing lean times, started the contest on a winning note when their light yweight boxer, Jonah Kanyiri, was awarded three points without throwing a punch after Police failed to provide an opponent. But the policemen, under veteran coach George Foreman Onyango, bounced back as Thomas Kasina unleashed a urry of jabs on the face of Jeremiah Abuko to win on majority points. Inspired by Kasinas win, Police won the bantam weight contest after newcomer Joseph Kimani oored Moses Noor 3- 0. Im shaping up for next year. I want to accomplish my dream of representing Kenya internationally, said Kimani after the match. Experienced policeman Joseph Shighali also encountered little opposition, sweeping aside the illprepared Ben Oluoch to win 3 0 in light welterwight category. Nakurus prolific fighter Joseph Thiongo was in a class of his own as he outpunched Silas Masake in light welterweight. Policeman Masake could not contain a charging Thiongo who cornered him with angled punches to win via a split points decision. Niven Okumu of Police reduced Nakurus Fredrick Odhiambo into a punching bag, winning 3 0 in welter weight.

Mazembe advance in CAF Champions League


Johannesburg
Former Fifa Club World Cup runners-up TP Mazembe from the Democratic Republic of Congo reached the CAF Champions League group phase at the weekend. The football club from southern mining city Lubumbashi forced a 1-1 draw at El Merreikh of Sudan to advance 3-1 on aggregate to the last-eight stage of the elite African club competition. Young Zambian Nathan Sinkala put the Congolese ahead in saunalike Omdurman on 56 minutes after being set up by compatriot and fellow midelder Rainford Kalaba. Nigerian Kelechi Osunwa equalised for the Sudanese 15 minutes from time, but the task of scoring a further three goals proved far beyond the capabilities of Merreikh. Mazembe, who stunned Brazilian outt Internacional in the 2010 Club World Cup before bowing out to Inter Milan, received a hostile reception in Sudan and the squad were largely conned to their hotel after being pelted with bottles. Al Hilal were also eliminated in the second round to complete a miserable weekend for Sudanese clubs in a championship oering a $1.5 million rst prize plus a place in the 2012 Club World Cup to be hosted by Japan. Held 1-1 at home two weeks ago, Hilal took a rst half lead in Algeria against ASO Chlef through Alaa Eldin Yousif, who poked a low cross over the goal-line at the far post. Karim Hadji levelled as a tense tussle entered the closing stages, powerfully heading home a cross from point-blank range and the Algerians prevailed 4-2 in the penalty shootout to reach the pool phase for the first time.

Then Eaglets levelled through Jane Wanja in the 17th minute from a penalty corner and Grace Watare scored the winner in the 55th minute.

High stakes for Chelsea in Cup nal in Munich


ust when you thought it was over theres more to come. May has been a quite amazing football month, but the seasons not nished yet. Theres the small matter of the Champions League nal this weekend. And while all teams except Chelsea will have packed for their summer holidays, its still the case that the outcome of the Premiership is not yet decided. This is because of a rule change some time ago involving the Champions League winners. Liverpool ended up fifth in the Premiership in 2005, pipped by local rivals Everton, for the last Champions League slot. Later in May 2005, they won an amazing Champions League nal against AC Milan. It would have been unthinkable for the Champions League winners not to defend their trophy, so Liverpool were allowed into the competition the following season. But it would also have been unfair to exclude Everton. As a result there were ve representatives from the Premiership at the start of the 2005-06 season. To avoid future vagueness and confusion, it was decided that if the Champions League winner wasnt in one of the qualifying slots for next seasons competition in their home league when the season ended, they would still be able to defend their trophy. But the lowest-placed side in a Champions League qualifying position would have to miss out. In other words, if Chelsea win the Champions League this weekend, it will please their supporters and their owner Roman Abramovich who allegedly craves European success above all else (though I have never asked him and he doesnt give interviews so it is probably speculation). But such a win wont please all supporters. To go through a season only to have hopes dashed after the league campaign has ended is a cruel fate. How likely are Chelsea to win? They certainly wont have much support. Many neutrals have already made up their minds that they are going to sup-

port Bayern Munich this weekend and not just German football fans. The argument put forward is that Chelsea have committed the greatest football crime of the moment: they have knocked Barcelona out at the semi-nal stage. So, the World is deprived of seeing the best side in the World, and the best player, Lionel Messi, who wont be able to add to his phenomenal goal total. Such is Barcelonas appeal that I have a friend in New York, an Indian cricket lover who has never claimed football as his own, complaining when Didier Drogba scored the winning goal in the rst leg tie at Stamford Bridge. I would say to him, as I say to all readers: this is a distorted view of what went on both in London and the return leg in Barcelona. Its good to watch neat passing football, but it doesnt always make for a great spectacle. Think back to last years Champions League nal at Wembley. Barcelona were wonderful to watch, but there was no tension in the game as Manchester United, for the second time against these opponents in a recent nal, rolled over and waited to be beaten. The game between Barcelona and Chelsea, far from being the anti-football that many have described it as, was in fact the most engrossing game for many a year. It had everything: John Terrys act of stupidity in kneeing Alexis Snchez from behind shortly after Barcelona had cancelled out Chelseas one-goal lead from the rst leg, the loss through injury of the other centre back, Gary Cahill to leave a depleted defence. Messi hitting the post and missing a

penalty, Ramires wonder goal before half time then the rearguard action to end all others, when even a team with Barcelonas gifts long looked unlikely to break through before the nal whistle. And to cap it all, redemption for Spaniard Fernando Torres against many of his national team mates and fellow World Cup winners, the Spanish champions, with a superb breakaway goal from the halfway line. Can Chelsea do it again when they face Bayern Munich? The current position doesnt look too good. The game is in the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munichs home ground, on Saturday night. Sure, last seasons final where Manchester United capitulated so abjectly, was at Wembley, the home of English football, but thats a long way from Old Traord. And Chelsea will be without a trio of suspended players: as well as Terry: Ramires, Branislav Ivanovic and Raul Meireles will also have to sit out the nal. In recent games such as the two against Liverpool last week (in the FA Cup and the Premiership), Chelsea have looked as if the season is catching up with them, fading badly. And then there is history. Bayern have faced English opponents in European Cup or Champions League Finals three times before (which says something about the Germans impressive history). Most recently, they lost an incredible nal to Manchester United in 1999, in a game few will forget. They also lost a much more mundane match against Aston Villa in 1992. The first final in which Bayern faced English opposition was against Leeds United in 1975. Leeds had got to the final following a dramatic semi nal with last ditch defending

against....Barcelona. This was another hard-fought draw from an English side at the Nou Camp and the similarities dont end there. Leeds had gone into the game with a slender one goal lead, having won the rst leg 2-1 at Elland Road. When they went further ahead, a great Barcelona side containing Johan Cruy had to score twice; they only managed one, despite Leeds being reduced to ten men following the sending o of a clumsy central defender, Gordon McQueen. Sounds familiar? Having got to the nal, Leeds suered poor referring decisions and eventually went on to lose 2-0 to Bayern Munich. A repeat score this weekend would be no surprise.

Five key moments that won City title


^Old Traord shellshocked October 23: Manchester United 1 Manchester City 6 The eagerly anticipated meeting of the two early-season title rivals did not disappoint, with City running riot to inict Uniteds heaviest home defeat since February 1955 and leave Sir Alex Ferguson reecting on his worst ever day in football. Mario Balotelli red City ahead and when Jonny Evans was sent o for United, the visitors ruthlessly exploited their one-man advantage, with Balotelli adding a second before Sergio Aguero, Edin Dzeko (2) and David Silva completed the carnage. ^Tevez returns, City hit Chelsea March 21: Manchester City 2 Chelsea 1 Carlos Tevez had not played for City since his spectacular fallingout with Roberto Mancini during the Champions League loss at Bayern Munich, which left the Argentinians career in limbo. But the South American striker rose from the bench to help inspire a stirring City ghtback after Chelsea had taken the lead through Gary Cahill. After Aguero levelled from the penalty spot, Tevez produced the pass that set up Citys 85th-minute winner from Samir Nasri that kept the club just one point behind United at the top of the table. ^City in good Kompany April 30: Manchester City 1 Manchester United 0 City had been presented with the opportunity to haul themselves back into the title race after Uniteds shock 4-4 draw with Everton a week earlier and Mancinis side took full advantage. An attritional battle was settled on the stroke of half-time when captain Vincent Kompany rose high to nod home a Silva corner. Tensions boiled over in the second half as Mancini and Ferguson squared up to each other on the touchline but City hung on for a win that put them ahead of United on goal dierence. ^Toure takes City to brink May 6: Newcastle United 0 Manchester City 2 With City having put the destiny of the title back in their hands by beating Manchester United earlier in the week, a sizeable contingent of their supporters were quietly dreading the thought that the club may then give up those gains in a dicult away game at in-form Newcastle. City held their nerve to claim a clinical victory with two goals from midelder Yaya Toure taking them to within 90 minutes of the title. ^City late show seals title May 13: Manchester City 3 QPR 2 With just four minutes of secondhalf stoppage time remaining, City seemed to have squandered the title in agonising fashion. Mancinis side were cruising when Pablo Zabaletas goal late in the rst half opened the scoring, but QPR equalised through Djibril Cisse soon after the break and, despite Joey Bartons foolish sending o, they went ahead thanks to Jamie Mackies header. Yet City showed the courage of champions to keep going and Dzeko headed the equaliser two minutes into stoppage time before Argentine striker Aguero red home with virtually the last kick of the game to seal the title on goal dierence from Manchester United. -AFP

London

anchester City were crowned Premier League champions yesterday after an incredible ghtback which saw them score twice in injury time to beat QPR 3-2 and seal the title on goal dierence. Citys dreams of a rst title in 44 years appeared to be in tatters as 10man Rangers led 2-1 after 90 minutes courtesy of goals from Djibril Cisse and Jamie Mackie following Pablo Zabaletas opener. But as Manchester United prepared to celebrate snatching a 20th league title following their 1-0 win at Sunderland, Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero struck twice in two minutes to seal the most enthralling title duel in years. The last few minutes were incredible. This is for our supporters, they deserve this, City manager Roberto Mancini said.

To win like this is incredible. I have never seen a nish like this. We had a lot of chances, we deserve to win this championship. Its fantastic. After 44 years I dedicate this to all our supporters. Its a crazy season, crazy last minutes. After a nervy start, City took the lead five minutes from half-time through Zabaleta, the Argentinian fullback darting onto a deft through ball from Yaya Toure to shoot high into the net past Rangers keeper Paddy Kenny. The goal sent relief coursing around Eastlands as City prepared for their championship party. But Eastlands was stunned into silence shortly after half-time when a blunder by Joleon Lescott let in Cisse who raced clear and thundered an equaliser past Joe Hart. Even then, the force still seemed to be with City, as QPR captain Joey Barton was sent o in an incident that deed belief. The ery midelder was given his marching orders by referee Mike Dean for a retaliatory elbow on Carlos Tevez following an o-theball clash.

in the second of ve minutes of injury time. Then, out of nowhere, Aguero skipped clear of the Rangers defence to spark bedlam at Eastlands with the most dramatic winner imaginable. City celebrated but it was a dierent story at the Stadium of Light, where for a eeting moment after the nal whistle Uniteds players believed they had done enough to retain their crown

As Barton left the pitch, the midelder then angrily kneed Aguero in the back of the thigh to leave himself facing a lengthy ban. Yet incredibly instead of ramming home their advantage, City were left shellshocked as 10-man Rangers took a 2-1 lead in the 66th minute, Mackie heading in at the far post after Armand Traores swift break from defence. Amid unbearable tension, City looked set for a traumatic defeat until substitute Dzeko nodded in to equalise

after Wayne Rooneys rst-half goal completed a 1-0 win. But then news of Agueros late winner ltered through and Uniteds players trudged o in disbelief having been all smiles just moments before. Nobody expected that. Everybody expected City to win, but they did it against 10 men for half an hour and with ve extra minutes to help them, Sir Alex Ferguson said afterwards. But I congratulate City on winning the league. Anybody who wins it deserves it, because its a long haul. At the end of our game our players didnt actually know the results. Now, theyre really disappointed, Im glad to say. Theres no other way they should be ... It wasnt our turn today. QPRs fans celebrated meanwhile after the clubs Premier League survival was ensured as Bolton could

only draw 2-2 at Stoke. In the other issues to be settled on Sunday, Arsenal clinched third place with a 3-2 win at West Bromwich Albion while Tottenham sealed fourth place with a 2-0 win over Fulham at White Hart Lane. Tottenham, however, face a nervous wait to see if they will advance to next seasons Champions League. A win for Chelsea in next weeks nal against Bayern Munich would see Spurs miss out. Chelsea warmed up for next weeks nal with a 2-1 win over relegated Blackburn. Elsewhere yesterday, Newcastles brave challenge for a top four nish ended in a 3-1 defeat at Everton which left the Magpies in fth place. Liverpools disappointing season ended on a downbeat note with a 1-0 loss at Swansea. (AFP)

We still have a major goal in mind and I think we will have all recovered from the shock by the Champions League nal. That will be a completely dierent game. Germany coach Joachim Loew admitted he was shocked by the margin of Dortmunds win. I would never have expected such a result, he said. Mainly because

of Dortmunds second half performance, the victory was deserved. Bayern need to produce a huge reaction now against Chelsea. After winning the German league title by eight points from Bayern, Dortmund continued their domination with their fth consecutive win against Munich in the sold-out nal at Berlins Olympic Stadium. Unbeaten in their last 23 games in all competitions since last December, Dortmund have yet to lose in 2012. Goals by Japan star Shinji Kagawa, a penalty from Germany defender Mats Hummels and a hattrick from Poland striker Robert Lewandowski

cancelled out Arjen Robbens penalty for Bayern and a strike from Frances Franck Ribery. That was a cup nal which no one from Dortmund could have better imagined, beamed Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp after his rst cup win. We were ice cool in our nishing and scored great goals. Its hard to put into words what has happened to us. Germanys number one goalkeeper Manuel Neuer capped a poor night when he lost possession to allow Lewandowski to head his third goal nine minutes from time for the Polish strikers 30th goal of the season in all competitions.

Barcelonas coach Josep Guardiola gives instructions to Tello during his last Spanish League football match against Real Betis on Saturday at the Benito Villamarin stadium in Sevilla. Ten-man Barcelona needed an injury-time goal to secure a 2-2 draw. Sergi Busquets got an early goal for the Catalans before they had Dani Alves sent-o early in the second-half. Ruben Castro took full advantage of the numerical dierence to score twice for Betis in the nal 20 minutes, leaving Guardiola staring at defeat until Seydou Keita headed in an equaliser in the dying moments. The departing coach can look back with satisfaction on four seasons in which he has won 13 trophies including three leagues titles before Real Madrid triumphed this season. His nal game will be on May 25 when his side take on Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish Cup nal.
