  • President Kibaki quickly losing votes

    Posted: July 8, 2007, 10:25 pm
    Listening to Assistant Minister Koigi wa wamwere accuse the police of extra judicial killings, it was apparent that Kibaki is quickly losing votes from his supporters. The dreaded kwekwe were placed on the spot. It was apparent that a revived economy was irrelevent when the right to life was not protected.As lawyer Judy Thongori observed, what sad times we live in today. Maybe another party has a constitutional remedy to roaring crime? If yes, can we hear it now?

  • Churches and pastors should pay taxes

    Posted: July 8, 2007, 11:33 am
    Churches and pastors are very wealthy in this country. Indeed, they are even vying for parliament and the Presidency. The Government should tax them henceforth in order to achieve its ever spiralling tax target.

  • Media bill

    Posted: July 8, 2007, 11:25 am
    There has been intense debate on this bill. Essentially the Government seeks to regulate the media as they have failed to regulate themselves. The price of democracy is a free media. They can write what they wish so long as they do not whip up ethnic animosity. A contrary view would only take us back in time. Restricting the media restricts the economy. What is the basis of requiring a journalist to have a journalism qualification? I suppose journalism school shall help in creativity? Clearly this bill needs to go back to the drawing board!

  • Catholic church burying its head in the Sand

    Posted: July 8, 2007, 10:53 am
    The Catholic church continues its absolute ban on use of contraceptives by its faithful. At least the Anglican church now allows discordant couples to use condoms. The Catholic Church, whose own priests are dying of Hiv and Aids, must know this policy is ridiculous from whichever angle we look at it. Does it not believe in life?

  • Equity bank and its bankers cheques

    Posted: July 8, 2007, 10:35 am
    The cost of a bankers cheque must be lowest at the 1.3 million account Equity Bank. Only Kes 100. But beware that it costs 500 at its Upper Hill Prestige branch. Still lower than most banks. Kudos.
