My pal gave me this book; Kenya Today; Breaking the Yoke of Colonialism. I thought it was right on the mark for all the silliness going on in Kenya.. Pretty shocking stuff that goes on in the backround that wananchi never get to know about...Think Shocking Book Link]Shocking Book Link

Somehow; I found it boring and hard to read. But that's me...
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

@mukiha,yours ia the typical attitude of the modern politically immature African. such books are not for entertainment, not everything is a telenovela! did u even bother to read through the third part & seriously see how & why we Africans are so damned poor? the first part needs someone with a phd in economics, but the rest is pretty easy to understand

Well, well, well. Mr. Thirty First African, don't you have a bad attitude problem, you do.

@Mukiha has earned his pips on this site and we collectively have utmost respect for him.

Out here, we shove heads belonging to chaps with attitudes like yours right up their donkey, if it is not already there.

@Mukiha, I sincerely apologise for the insult visited upon you by this African.

@ aemathenge: I have carefully analyzed your post, its sentence structure, use of nouns, adjectives, grammer, idea development etc, and I have come to the conclusion that you must be a matatu tout. Which begs the question, what is a manamba doing in a forum as serious as this one?

A man does not attain respect because he talks a lot (many posts). All I did was to suggest an interesting read in light of what is going on in Kenya, I was not looking for all this drama... just read the book and make an intelligent review of the contents...

@Mukiha, again my sincere and heartfelt apologies.

Professor Number Thirty First African, I refer you to page One Hundred and Eighty Eight of the book in question, particulary the line thus:

"When Africans become culturally alienated from themselves, they imagine that they are superior to other Africans who are less Westernized (Manambas, Matatu Touts, aemathenges, Mahegoates, @Mukiha and so on)"

Thirdly, on behalf of the www.wazua.com fraternity, I thank you for complimenting this forum as being as serious as to warrant a pat on the back from no less an eminence as a personality who holds a Doctorate of Philosophy in Economics.

You do hold a PhD in Economics, don't you? Perhaps you could regale us minions in your thesis, alma maters, and strategic plans you have put in place to lead this poor third world country into the first world.

Impress me.

I like the word "telenovela" .. what does it mean anyway? Is it related to telematch?
