kianyaga perspective

This is a report

a friend of mine who comes from Kianyaga and goes by the name chomba njeru (literally, his name means european white) called me this morning to tell me his take on the coalition government ...i must admit i was taken aback that he, actually, was reporting this collusion government to me!

said he: I am really annoyed that people have spent about a year, 365 days of the sun rising and setting, trying to discuss the goings on in the coalition government! these talking kenyans are idlers, liars, ignominous characters, charlatans, useless ... (i have edited some epithets for purposes of maintaining the decorum of this blogg)

said i:

said he: i can describe what this coalition government is doing in one word:

ũvĩsĩ

said i: okay george ... oops chomba njeru, i will blogg it.

I donot seem to know what ũvĩsĩ means, (since i actually have no links with Kianyanga except by the virtue of the fact that i know his ancestors, as teenagers, got lost [and so settled] in the land of many ridges when my ancestors send them to follow the ameru to recover some nzavĩ seeds they were given by my ancestors)

but i am sure this person, like many more people around the country, is annoyed at the charade of arrogance the government is parading

the question is; how much longer can this pent up energy be held in the breasts of the people of this country? aren't we an active volcano momentarily subsided by the lie of two hyenas (complete with squadrons of hangers on) agreeing to live in the same house?

citizen,
put your ears on the ground, and lets talk, not about the Kenya we want, but about how to get, unnoticed, beyond the hut housing the two hyenas and their hangers on, and go to the rivers of plenty beyond.

aluta continua
