Mahatma Gandhi? Same Gandhi who described black Africans as “savage,” “raw” and living a life of “indolence and nakedness,” and he campaigned relentlessly to prove to the British rulers that the Indian community in South Africa was superior to native black Africans...

True. She just didn't like him. Is it even a Kenyan home if there is no (Nakumatt or Lyon's Maid) ice-cream, butter, yoghurt, biscuit or sweets container keeping githeri or nyama in the fridge. Kenyans are very environmental conscious with plastic containers: Re-use, Recycle etc

There is a saying in my hamlet, that if a man disagrees with his wife in the middle of the night,were she to storm out and spend the night, she is not to seek refuge in the husband's best friend's hut, no matter how near. For by morning, the two men shall no longer be friends.

Exactly. The road conforms to and sometimes forms population settlement patterns. A road, just like a railway, is more than tarmac , steel and concrete on murram. It is a social, military and political tool.
I can't be the only one who thinks that that cooking stick movement in marriage ceremonies is symbolic and related to the actual consummation of the marriage.

I disagree. Somalis in Kenya should be treated equally as any other Kenyan community. Equality. Not specially. Not more favourably. Neither discrimated. They are part of the diverse Kenyan Nation. They did not introduce diversity.
Equality. Nothing more. Nothing less.
As President Uhuru Kenyatta and PM Raila Odinga listen to CS Owalo reading President William Ruto's message at Magoha's Funeral, we must recognize that Magoha must have lived a well moderated lifestyle. No woman has come forth with a child fighting to be included in the Program
