Have you ever been to a supermarket, bought a plastic container of 500g of honey and as you are paying for it at close to kshs 400 your mouth is already watering seriously, waririkana handù hau!!
Once you get home, and get your first slice of broadway and smeer the sweet honey, it is all yuk!! You realise that the content of the plastic container that you bought from the supermarket looks like honey, but does not taste like honey..

This has happened to me twice from "honey" from different supermarkets.

It seems this tabia is not about to end starting from honey from Kibwezi along Mombasa road, Mwingi along Garissa road where doctoring of honey is done and even the Kenyans themselves making honey which is all different from the one made by genuine bees except the colour.

Now Maasais have joined in, in the lucrative business....Eish!!!

Is the allegation on Maasais concoting and the subsequent arrest credible!!!!

What will they be charged with.

Maasais are the new Kikuyu! I dug a hole in my fenced compound. They cut part of the barbed wire, and have sent a warning that if a cow falls in my hole, I'll paySad All this, in an expansive area with lots and lots of free space, where zebras roam freely. Si hio ni kutafuta pesa tu?

Are you saying Kikuyus do such kind of treacherous things to look for money?

I wonder why we must insist on making the ethnic identity of the culprits!!

If NTV/Citizen posted the news as below, would we be comfortable?

Invest in a bee-hive if you have the space in your compound (Not those 1/8th,1/4 buroti shenanigans)smile . Tuck the hive away from interference from humans or domestic animals. That way, you avoid having to deal with such rubbish. You may even have some excess to sell to your neighbours.

While forests are being closed for logging, I hope thy allow honey guys in Laikipia and samburu to continue their business, they hang hives and harvest every now and then, they mostly sell it raw with all the stuff
I remember my uncle tied a mosquito net over a bucket poured the raw honey an left it outside to sieve sadly he did not get anything bees descended on the setup before it started sieving and carried it all away.
