Counties Uhuru Has Never Visited as President

President Uhuru in Eldoret-Uasin Gichu county
President Uhuru Kenyatta has been to 39 out of the 47 Counties in Kenya – either on official tour, for County activity or to Commission a project – during his three years in office.


Kenyatta is yet to visit 9 Counties which include Laikipia, Wajir, Mandera, Garissa, Siaya, Homa Bay, Kitui, and Vihiga.

According to Government communication agency, Nexus, Nairobi County was among those he toured in 2014 and recorded the highest visits from the Head of State totalling 73 visits (61 official events and 12 county activities).

Uhuru had also been to Mombasa County 12 times to attend county activities.

The tabulation by Nexus released on Monday indicated that Kenyatta had been to Kiambu and Nakuru Counties seven and six times respectively, with three visits each recorded for Machakos and Nyeri.

President Kenyatta's trips have in the past few days been a contentious topic on the media and online platforms, with more focus being given to his numerous foreign visits – 43 trips in the last three years in office.

Reports indicate that Uhuru has made 10 more trips than his predecessor retired President Mwai Kibaki did in his 10-year tenure.

However, on Sunday, State House firmly defended the President's foreign trips, noting that they had benefited the country tremendously.

There is no regret in Obedience

It’s a guarantee your life will never be the same again when you obey God. God is our CREATOR and our DIRECTOR meaning he knows the best way for our lives since he loves us, our role is to simply OBEY Him. Obedience is everything when we are relating to God. Obedience is the KEY ingredient in the kingdom of God. God is always ready to manifest himself in our lives when we obey Him and his word(John 14:23 Jesus Replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.” Like 5:5 Simon Peter an experienced fisherman with a fishing business had toiled the whole night without any catch of fish and he was frustrated and tired and he was washing his nets UNTIL Jesus told him to Launch out into the deep again. Peter had a CHOICE to say YES or NO but he choose to OBEY and he said: “Nevertheless AT THY WORD I WILL LET DOWN THE NET”. The moment he chooses to obey instead of Questioning, Analyzing and trying ...

CA sounds alert on fake software

The telecommunications sector watchdog has warned companies and individual Internet users from buying fake software, saying it now offers hackers the most common loophole for executing cyber-attacks. The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), through the National Computer Incident Response Team Co-ordination Centre (National KE-CIRT/CC), warned on Thursday that cybercriminals have changed tack and are now using third-party software to deliver threats to unsuspecting users in an attempt to compromise and steal their personal data. “Though Kenya has not been adversely affected by such attacks as at now, the trend depicts a serious concern in cybercrime management and thus a precaution should be taken when dealing with outsourced products and personnel,” said acting CA director- general Christopher Kemei in a statement. Kenyan businesses lose billions of shillings and troves of sensitive information to hackers every year. SOURCE

THE POLITICALLY INCORRECT PRAYER

When minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new sessions of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard: THE PRAYER Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask Your forgiveness and to seek Your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, "Woe to those who call evil good,," but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We confess: We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism. We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism. We have endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem. We have abused power and...
