Nakuru County: How crime can be controlled in the county
Nakuru County being a metropolitan county faces many different types of crimes from crimes against persons to victimless crimes and violent crimes to white collar crimes. Crimes against persons which include murder, aggravated assault, rape and robbery are brought before Nakuru court each day.
White collar crimes are committed by people of high social status who commit their crimes in the context of their occupation. The Nakuru county government should put a strategy to incubate these and other forms of crimes from occurring. There is a need to enact and adopt some criteria that might scoop away crimes occurrence and if exist there is a need to have a proper channel to control them.
The county government should distribute resources equally. Everyone in the society has the equal opportunities to use the resources allocated which include land, water, minerals, fuel and wealth. The CDF should be distributed equally to every constituency. The resource needed in Nakuru town for instance is also needed in remote areas like Solai, Bonita, Marram and Kuresoi.
The key leaders in the government should note that the same roads used by the governor along M. Umoni estate in Nakuru is the same road required by the farmers to transport their produce from Ndundori to the market.
Due to poor equal distribution of resources, people have moved from remote areas and squize in urban in order to get job or randalize resources so as to acquire some wealth. When the county government distribute resources equally up to remote parts of Nakuru County, the level of crimes in urban will reduce. People will get job opportunities and also get intouch with income generating activities e.g. when provided with good infrastructure roads and water, then they will tend to adopt farming and thus will be self-employed.
This equal distribution of resources will not only help in reducing crimes but also will help in deolalization of industries.
Nakuru County consists of youths who are unemployed. The county government should help curb this by providing this young government with initiative like fish pond, fish rearing and chick hatchery among other strategies. The problem with on leader is they only lay down foundation but does not implement or enact. If youths employment can be advocated, their crimes such as illicit brewing, drug trafficking, gambling and any anti-social behavior can be deterred.
An idle mind is the devil’s workshop. I see a situation where youths forms a group and seeks Uwezo funds. Yes, that’s alright, where will they take the money? If the government won’t monitor where and how the funds will be used, then Nakuru county will experience the next attacks. Some may go and buy crucial weapons and chemicals by forming a militia group because they have been given the funds without being monitored.
The Nakuru County government should bear in mind that those involved in violent crimes is by involving them in income generating activities.
Hypothetically we cannot eradicate crime tomorrow simply by sliding all of its criminal statutes because it would probably cause the behavior to increase since it could be no longer punished the gap between the poor and the rich is another cause that leads to devil crimes.
Another implication is that some societies found in remote areas are by definition “crime tree”. This small neither foraging society found in remote areas because the members of these societies neither read nor write. They have no formalized criminal statute.
MP Launches counselling initiative for illicit brewers in Nakuru
Police from Bahati police station have been blamed by Bahati member of parliament Onesmus Kimani Ngunjiri.
Ngunjiri is blaming the law enforcers for over-reacting and lack of use of counseling skills and psychological knowledge when dealing with illicit brewers.
Njunguri who spoke over the weekend at Menengai hill secondary school in Kirima, noted that the police in Bahati do not give counseling to those who are caught up in brewing but instead they take bribe and the vicious circle of poverty continues.
“I want to put the police on notice and encourage them to give counseling to illicit brewers and drinkers so as to change their lives”. Said Njunguri.
He was addressing a group of 30 people from the area who were changaa brewers and drinkers but after counseling was done to them they abandoned the chang’aa activity.
Monicah Nyambura, a mother of 7 who brew chang’aa to the residents got counseling from Ngunjiri and helped the members to become law abiding citizens.
“We are happy for the Kimani Ngunjiri counseling initiative which helped me leave the chang’aa business now I am a farmer and y children are in school despite the odd days when I could not educate my children”, says Monicah.
Monicah has benefited from the counseling and it is this that has made her 24 year old son get into the university after getting an A plain in KCSE last year.
The abandoned drinkers engage in a merry-go-around chama which gives members Kshs.4,000 every month.
Kimani thanked the group and promised to help them so that they can be good examples from Bahati constituency and Nakuru county at large.
The group which operates 3 incubators, has got milk goats and arc in the process of purchasing a land. Kimani gave the group 6 milk goats, added them incubator and urged them to seek Uwezo funds.

“Waheshimiwa please give us space….”
Gatundu people have the votes and no amount of coercion will deter them from the direction they want to take.Gatundu people are very aware of their responsibility to vote in a person who uphold the rule of law and who respect their democratic rights as Kenyan.
Gatundu Men, women and youth have decided NOT to vote a person who went to an extent of rigging nominations to get into power though the back doors. Gatundu people are aware of what happened last month where the people’s rights were violated in the nominations that were characterized by day light rigging.
This time around, Gatundu people shall never take a back seat and watch when our rights are being violated. As the people who understand how painful it is to be deprived the right to elect candidate of your choice to leadership , we have all formed a formidable team, a fortress wall that cannot be shaken by anyone who think that Gatundu people never went to school.
As a young person of this great Kenya I assure you that never again will Democracy be in trial in Gatundu and in Kenya at large. Youth are now informed, this is not the time somebody could be selected by few individuals to become people’s representative, the reason we passed the new constitution which every citizen is supposed to respect it.
I have much respect for the Deputy President Hon.William Ruto and other Leader affiliated to TNA, but in this one Waheshimiwa please allow the people of Gatundu to decide.President Uhuru Kenyatta is a leader and an intelligent leader for that matter, he came out very clearly and gave the people of Gatundu the mandate to elect a leader of their choice. It should not escape our mind that some external forces are at work trying to cajole us. You don’t need to talk to me Mr.. talk to the people of Gatundu South and get to know what happened, But I can tell you something went wrong somewhere and these guys need to tell you the truth. Just a hint; 4,500 votes came from where?.......
We are fully behind our President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and not even the disappointments during the nominations will subside our energy and vigour to let the people of Gatundu constituency and Kenya at large know the truth.
It is already dawn and Gatundu south constituents are very expectant. Soon we shall go through a period of reconnaissance i.e. Gatundu south is experiencing a rebirth in the next few weeks. They will exercise their democratic right in electing a visionary leader of their choice.
They never expected the war to be tough, but allow me to tell you that this is Gatundu and the people of Gatundu need a leader who identifies with their plight, one who will propel our youth agenda forward.
More often than not, I have expressed my bitterness with regard to some individuals taking the leadership of Gatundu through the back door. Every person who seeks the leadership of Gatundu now or in future should be ready to give people an opportunity to decide and rigging should not be an option. The people’s democratic rights should be respected at all-time no matter what…….
We shall not offer a soft landing to these kinds of leaders who don’t believe on democracy and we are ready to make their life difficult until they realize that there is need to respect the rights of every common man in Gatundu South constituency and in Kenya at large. Let them first learn to respect the people’s rights and later come for our votes come year 2022.
Gatundu South has been my halfway rescue esp after the elections, we are tired of having half baked leaders, let the voters have their say,NKT we are in a democratic nation.
It is not yet over until it is done………………I am coming back soon..

TRIBE ALL-ism
Who am I?
Whose am I?
Of-course am God's
So never teat a brother like a street dog
If am Abel,please don't be Cain
Where do you get the guts the veins
Don't you feel any pain?
Seeing blood spraying out of my arteries,my veins
My home is an orphanage
Orphaned at a young tender age
Parents lost in tribal violence
Young girls living with stolen innocence
I don't know my Papa,my Mama
Were they Kuria or Giriama?
Did tribes ever exist?
When a Kalenjin runs at the Olympics
All I could see is a Kenyan flag
The win isn't a Kalenjins victory
Its the pride of the whole country
The Maasai culture attracts tourists
Which doesn't make them a giraffes neck and degrade others to a wrist
My former deskmate was an Orma
What a beautiful lady she was,ooh my
Only beautiful in my own imagination
For she always covered her face with either a black or brown hijab
El Molo,Oromo,Pokomo,Rendile,Ogie k were my schoolmates
The difference in us,you couldn't tell
Our Swahili teacher was a Mijikenda
Having insulting sayings of humor
"Mtaka cha mvunguni sharti achre saba" he would say when referring to a prostitute
The English teacher;A Luo
His vocabularies were from Pluto
But does he say?
School guard;a Pokot
Insecurity took to their heels with the presence of his bow and arrow
A meru's miraa probox ran over me
Njoroge's "ask for transport"pick-up rushed me to Aga Khan
A head-shaking Arab doctor attended to me
The Teso nurse was very kind
Her presence made my wounds heal faster
ShiKUKU the Luhya kitchen master
Also a friend and an enemy of the CHICKEN
Do you remember Kioko,the whistling cleaner?
He could whistle fast tunes than Bolt could run
My pain danced away to the tunes
Mogaka ;the Kisii who sells earth-size avocados and nile long juicy sugarcane
Knew the importance of vitamins and visited me with a part of his business
Do you know the Boni?
A Boni cleared my hospital bill
My boss's chauffeur is a Tachoni
The wife is a Watha
But looked like a Yiaku
I guess you didn't know the lady who delivers my mail is a Kore
I cant tell the Maragoli,Marama,Isukhu and the Bukusu
For all I know they are Kenyans
Everyone complains with sneezes
When I wear my expensive strong scented cologne
Which made me realize the Dahalo hawker conned me
My beautiful better half is a Taita
Thanks for the introduction from a Taveta friend
A Suba planner organized my wedding
My mahawk was done in that Kinyozi at the corner
The barber is a tall dark Turkana
My ear-piercings represents the Samburu culture
Moha is my Somali designer from Eistleigh
The milkman is an Embu
I think his milk is the freshest of all
Regards to you Juma
You taught me how to swim in the cold Indian ocean
Under the burning Mombasa heat
There are the poor and the rich
The religious and non-religious
The red color in the Kenyan flag unites us all
If weren't we would different patches of tribal bloods
Kenya is @51,at menopause
She has shed enough blood before
Shedding blood again is like raping her
And all the sanitary towels in the whole world will not stop the oozing
Stop TRIBALISM
EMBRACE TRIBE ALL-ism
