Why Uhuruto chose Kuria in Jubilee dialogue team

And the controversial Moses Kuria is in the Jubilee team for IEBC talks. How and why?
Kuria was named Thursday amongst an 11 member team for the talks that are set to thrash out a deal over the current impasse with the IEBC.
Known as one of the most vicious supporters of the Jubilee Coalition, the top two insisted on him being on the team to ensure that a level of passion is maintained in the team, as well as a hard and tough to break down negotiator that Kuria is.
" The President and Deputy both felt Kuria should be in the team for the sake of balance," a source that is close to the Jubilee hierarchy and was present at the State House meeting to choose the team told NakuruNipashe.
" Everyone knows what to get with Kuria. He will be the hardliner and ensure that there is no short thrift for the government," he added.
Kuria, who is not afraid to speak his mind as has been seen in the past, has already shared his views on the IEBC protests that have been taking place, saying that Police should use as much force as possible to deal with the protesters.
" The Police budget should be increased to get in more teargas and weaponry to deal with such protests. They must be dealt with forcefully," he stated.
The talks should be interesting.

EXPOSED: How Government Tried to Cover Up Poisonous Vaccine

A letter written by a law firm to the Pharmacy and Poisons Board (PPB) and the Ministry of Health has highlighted shocking details of how the Government tried to cover up the results of contaminated polio vaccine.
According to the missive undersigned by Gitobu Imanyara & Co advocates, the Health Ministry and the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB) contracted the law firm's client, AgriQ Quest Laboratory Limited, to conduct tests on 56 samples of the vaccine.
However, when the laboratory delivered the findings which showed that the polio vaccine was contaminated, PPB reportedly instructed them to alter the results.
“Owing to the shocking findings of contamination of the vaccines, our client was orally advised to alter the report to indicate that they were safe to be administered. When he cited professionalism and the impact any alteration would have, they were informed that they would not be paid their fees unless they altered the said contents,” the letter read in part.
The Catholic Church had earlier cast doubt on the vaccine administered in April 2015 during a nationwide Polio Campaign, stating that it was impure; a claim the Ministry emphatically dismissed.
“The Ministry of Health wishes to assure all Kenyans that the vaccine being used during the polio vaccination is safe and effective,” Health Principal Secretary Khadijah Kassachoon was quoted by the Nation in a report on August 2, 2015.
After AgriQ Quest declined to alter the alarming results, the Pharmacy and Poisons Board stated that it would pay the Laboratory Sh600,000 yet the earlier agreement was Sh5.7 Million.
AgriQ Quest Laboratory indicated that besides suffering major losses following the refusal of the Government to pay for the services rendered, the company's publicity was also stained as it failed to pay its employees.
Lawyer Gitobu Imanyara told Kenyans.co.ke that the Catholic Church, which had jointly asked for the test with the Ministry, accepted the results and advised that the vaccination be stopped in its institution but the Government refused to accept.
On Monday, a catholic nun who is also the head teacher of St Anthony Academy in Nakuru was arrested for blocking health officers from immunising over 700 pupils against measles and rubella

DJDJ Crème de la Crème DEPORTED BY US OFFICIALS AFTER USING FAKE DOCUMENTS

US immigration officials have deported DJ Crème de la Crème to Kenya after being detained for 25 hours at the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport.
The DJ, whose official name is George Njuguna, was reportedly placed aboard an Emirates flight heading to Kenya via Dubai.
Reports indicate that DJ Crème told the immigration officials that he was visiting the US to spend time with his friend over the Memorial holiday - a day reserved to remember fallen US soldiers.
The DJ was, however, unaware that the officials knew the nature of his trip as he was scheduled to entertain Kenyans at different shows.
It is said that the officers even had his fliers and seemed to have been waiting for him when he arrived at DFW airport on Wednesday at 9.30am.
The entertainer had publicised the visit on social media with his postings revealing he was set to entertain Kenyans during the Memorial festivities.
Normally, such visits require one using a business visa and not tourist visa which the DJ travelled with.
Crème was deported after thorough questioning and reportedly informed his promoter on what had befallen him.
"Headed Home, but I'll make sure I tell you guyz about my Prison Break Stories when I Land," Creme confirmed the ordeal on his Instagram account.
"But everything happens for a reason and I know without a doubt that we shall party sometime soon," he concluded.
