The greatest adversary of man is a man, let alone the snake and her descendants, the curse still lives on,
People would never feed you when you’re hungry, they would rather feed their four- legged night watchmen than stretch their hands to save your starving soul,
But they would travel miles to come and burry you when the news go viral that you’ve kicked the blanket,
That is the moment they will offer to buy you a golden casket, that you may be send six fit under, in a colourful way,

Life is a characteristic that distinguishes physical entities that have biological processes, such as signaling and self-sustaining processes, from those that do not, either because such functions have ceased (they have died), or because they never had such functions and are classified as inanimate
WHY IT’S NEVER SAFE TO BE BORN IN AFRICA!
Life in Africa can only be compared with a football match between a bullet-less Arsenal and ofcourse a bigger team like the real giant of Madrid,Even before the players start blinking well, just as they are adapting to the cold climate of the Spanish capital, the game is already one-nil,When Xhaka is about to break…
WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN.
When the sun goes down and darkness stretches over the mountains, driving away every beast of the land from his respective hide out,
When the herdsmen converge at the exit to split their flocks after a long tiresome day on the grazing land,
When every single bird of the air together with his counterpart return to their nests after savaging the farmer’s wheat,
When the city grills and casinos become silent as a tomb and the highways are clear like spring water…the wise will close their eyes not
My Neighbour’s Hen Seems A Goose
The nature of human beings remains a conundrum or rather a mystification since time immemorial,
Have you ever questioned your inner self why he still believes that his neighbour’s grass is ever greener?
Why up to this moment he craves for the apples of the other side of the wall which seems more attractive and sweeter than your own?
If you haven’t probed him yet, I guess this is the right time to summon him before the sun sinks in the west horizon!
Before The Devil Became A Tailor
Are you satisfied with the fashion trends dominating the clothing arena currently?
Have you ever sat on a bench in your nearby town and watched ladies, older and younger passing by the streets?
Does it not perturb you when you see these little ones pulling down their tiny skirts in the sanctuary?
Or does it mean that age is catching up with me, if I refuse to wear these rugged pieces of jeans? I don’t think so!
Struggles of The Night Watchman
Have you ever pondered about the life of a night guard, a sentinel, a watcher?
The man who stays wake all night under a squeezed room or standing from dusk to dawn on the watch tower?
With his eyes wide open all night scanning through the edges of his master’s perimeter wall,
Lest he blink and lose his head to the sword of the night burglar! Have you?
Kenya’s Darkest Moments
We’ve been slaughtered, brutally murdered and tortured by tortured by armed terrorists who stealthily sneak into our bedrooms and hold us hostage,
The horrifying days and nights when we suffered in the hands of our enemy; on 23rd of September 2013, four gunmen stormed into West Gate Mall and sprayed bullets into the flesh of innocent Kenyans, claiming the lives of 71 people!
That wasn’t enough, yet another night of grief came upon our firmament, 147 students of Garissa University in Northern Kenya were killed by Alshabaab militia, bruising our nation massively!
To mention but a few, these are gruesome days and nights the my countrymen have gone through but we’ve managed to keep our heads high,
A City of Cunning People
The story begins in one of the most flamboyant cities of Africa, Nairobi, “the city of cunning people”
It was my first time to set my foot on the Kenyan capital; where all bright minds converge in, on a yearly basis,
Having been raised in a remote village deep inside Makueni County, I was bewildered by the stunning beauty of the golden city!
There were colourful dancing lights everywhere, all people were smartly dressed from head to toes,
The Plight of Boy Child
After a wearisome day, the sun is now fading away into the western skyline, paving a way for the night illuminants to brace the world,
I’m seated on a grill that guards commuting vehicles from a giant number of pedestrians who trail on foot to and from work,
The mood is changing minute after minute, Matatu’s (psvs), Subaru owners and motor bikers are unapologetically hooting as they pass by,
Strangers In My Father’s House.
A plot had been made to take away the life of my parents,
At exactly 00:00 hours, I heard a loud bang at the southern part of our homestead,
Within a blink of an eye, I heard a loud shatter of window panes, accompanied by a deep scary voice of a burglar,
“I have given you two minutes to open the door, or else I will burn your house to ashes!..”
