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 ...

NJOKI CHEGE on Shisha girls

Twenty years ago, women used to cook like their mothers. Today, they smoke like their fathers. There are fewer things more disgusting than a woman who smokes. And I’m not talking about cigarettes. My beef is with women who smoke shisha. Shisha girls are undesirable, rough and have completely lost respect for themselves. There are two types of shisha girls: the eastlando and the so-called upmarket ones. The eastlando types use cheap perfumes costing Sh350 and buy high heels from Toi Market and Bus Station. They text random men on Fridays “Leo turn up iko wapi, baby?” because they need a man to buy them a pot of shisha. They are happy to go to Club Cubano but will never forget you if you upgrade them to Mojos. They wear their plastic weaves long and coarse, the ones you comb until the scalp protests. The polish on their nails — mostly blue — is chipped and their lipstick ghetto; the ones bought at Moi Avenue for Sh200. Their dreadlocks — if they happen to have them...

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
