Chapter 41

Mind Boggling
By Njeri Mucheru-Oyatta

Chapter 41

So my client wrote a letter to the editor of the Standard Newspaper. The next day, I received an anonymous letter from some guy about my chapter 40. I could not believe that there is someone out there reading my blog with a mind like his and keeping quiet about what he thinks. After reading his letter, I realized that there are people out there like me, it’s only that they were not thinking before they started reading my blog.

This guy, I say he is a guy because as you will read from his letter which I have reproduced below, he says that he cannot marry me. He read my chapter 40 and if you thought my story about my client and his lawyers was interesting, you will be blown away by his story. Here it is:-

“Dear Njeri (Mind Boggler, I love that!),

That story about your client and his lawyers was THE BOMB! Yani, I laughed mpaka I shed tears. I was relieved to see that you actually have some views about our politics coz me, am into politics to death. And girl, let me tell you now that I would not marry you even if you divorced your husband for me coz you bring out the devil in me! Let me tell you what I think about the politics of the day and who someone like you should vote for. Here it is:-

First, you say you now believe in God. If that is true, then the decision of who to vote for this year should be aimed at bringing you closer to God. Right? Right. Now according to the Bible, and even my Pastor, in order for you to be close to God, you should be suffering. It is in suffering that you adopt a prayerful state of mind and the more you pray, the closer you get to God.

With this in mind, I have looked at the 2 guys who are running for presidency and who stand a chance of getting in. Kalonzo to me is a clown just trying to get himself mentioned in the history books on the next page after Kibaki and Raila have been covered. I studied history and I remember that national leaders are normally covered in order of the first in time to ascend to power and those who could have beens only get a sentence or two thereafter.

To me, as God fearing people, and Kenya is full of them, we need to vote in the guy who will instill in us a prayerful state of mind like 24/7. And to me, that guy is Kibaki. Why do I say that? Get this Mind Boggler: When Kombo got up on that podium and declared that Raila is a dangerous man, I held my breath waiting to hear what dangerous things Raila has done. You can imagine my disappointment when Kombo said ati he knows Raila, he worked with him closely and then Raila left! What the?! How does that show that Raila is dangerous?

To me, the most dangerous man in politics is the one who has nothing to lose and we have seen what people who have nothing to lose do. I’m talking about Mungiki, Taliban and the thugs who are reeking havoc in our dear country.

So in answering the question of who has nothing to lose and is therefore more dangerous than the other, my straight answer is Kibaki. Considering that he is going back in for his LAST TERM in office and will never in his life time need my vote again after I give it to him now, what has he got to lose when he gets in that will prevent him from reeking havoc in our country? And the next thing I am about to say will fortify my conviction that Kibaki is more dangerous than Raila.

Recently, Kibaki and Moi have become buddies. Moi, as shown by the Goldenberg Commission, Kroll Associates and Ringera’s appointment has friends who are the KING PINS in thieving from gova! So do you want to tell me that when Kibaki gets in and is having a cup of tea with Moi at State House they will be talking about economic development and how to improve our country?! The facts speak for themselves. With Moi by his side, Raila, sorry no, Kibaki’s top most agenda will be how to give Moi compe on his billions stashed outside the country. You see, with Moi on his side, Kibaki can loot as much as he likes AND …… GET AWAY WITH IT! Kibaki, like any human being in his position, can steal. Angloleasing is an example and don’t tell me that he did not know about Angloleasing coz that makes him even more dangerous.

The lady who we saw pictured luvi duvying in a hotel pool with that thug, Atur Magaryan, calls herself WINNIE WANGUI MWAI not WINNIE WANGUI RAILA.

Furthermore, noone has shown us Raila’s private army like Nyachae’s panga wielding youths of which he said he has THOUSANDS and their pee is apparently as lethal as a bullet!! Or like Michuki’s hooded gang who raided the Standard. If when he was in office Raila at least closed down a major highway for sinister reasons and told us it was for national security and that if we rattle snakes we should expect to be bitten, heee! I could say he is probably a dangerous guy.

Let me make this clear to you in conclusion. You said that love is acting in someone’s best interests and disregarding your own if necessary. Now to me, the most loving person in Kenya is that Wambui lady who galavants around the country campaigning for Kibaki INSPITE OF the fact that Kibaki has rejected her on NATIONAL TV. I expected different behaviour from her in this feminism era! If Wambui was the one in state house, I could say that Kibaki is probably not a dangerous guy. But what is clear to me is that Kibaki puts his personal interests ahead of those who love him. So …….. who am I to Kibaki? I don’t love him, he does not know me and I do not campaign for him. Will he act in my best interests? OF COURSE NOT!!

Njeri, Kibaki is the man to vote for if you believe in God and fear Him. God is much more dangerous than Kibaki and the closer you are to God the better for you. Build your riches in Heaven not here on earth. When you act against God’s interests, He will destroy you with fire and brimstone and endless floods as the Bible demonstrates.

VOTE FOR KIBAKI AND BE CLOSE TO GOD!”
