EDUCATION | Form Four candidate has no regrets for dropping out of school
Inform invigilator
James Maina, 21, from Kihuri Secondary School in Othaya speaks to the Nation yesterday. The Form Four candidate ran away from school a week ago after he was told to remove nail polish from his ngers by the school principal, Mr Isaac Ndegwa.
He said he decided not to sit for the Kiswahili paper which was about to start. My hands were swollen and decided I wont sit for the paper. So I sneaked out of school and went home and removed school uniform, he said. The boy later, it emerged, went to Thika on a mission to avoid being forced back to the examination room. He insists he is not willing to go back to school any time soon to sit the remaining papers. His mother, Mrs Anne Wahito Mwangi, a mother of one daughter and two sons, said Maina returned home on Friday night and when questioned about his behaviour, declined to answer. She said she has no idea why her son refused to sit for the exams, and urged anyone who can help her to convince her son to go back to school and sit for his exams. It is good if my son goes back to school and completes his education, because this is the only way he will be able to uplift his living, said Mrs Mwangi.

oseph Githinji will never realise his dream of marrying his longtime girlfriend as he had planned or even becoming a top ocer like his father. The 22-year-old was among the 41 police ocers who died under a hail of bullets while seeking out bandits in Baragoi on Saturday last week. The last communication he had with anyone before he died was a text message he sent to his mother which said: We are leaving (for Baragoi) at midday today. Please pray for me. The last he had seen of his family was in August during his passing out parade at the Administration Police Training College in Embakasi, Nairobi. Yesterday, the young mans sleepy Gwakiongo Village in Nyandarua County was still in shock. As family and friends met at the family farm in preparation for the burial, they were still trying to come to terms with the death of the young man they had all come to love and care for because of his deep involvement in the community.

To his family, he was of course an irreplaceable son and brother, he says. The fallen ocer also helped mould the lives of many children during his three-year stint at Matunda Primary School as an untrained teacher after his Kenya Certicate of Secondary Education exams, which he sat at St Lukes Secondary School in Nakuru in 2008. He scored C plain in 2008. He was a model student and at an age when many teenagers get lost in alcohol due to boredom after their KCSE exams, Joseph decided to engage in something that was useful to him and to his community. He sang in church and taught children, not for money, but for the pure joy of

service, the ocers cousin Joseph Wanjiru said. He wanted to marry. He also had big plans for his future because he wanted to work hard and rise through the ranks to become a high-ranking ocer. But he complained when he realised he had been posted to Samburu. In a way, his dejection was a premonition that he would die there shortly, but he said that because he had been ordered, he had no option, Wanjiru, 27, said. Many villagers who spoke to the Nation said Githinji was respectful and deeply religious. He was among the 41 officers killed by heavily armed bandits in a well-choreographed ambush in Suguta Valley. Most of the ocers were inexperienced and poorly-equipped, leaving them vulnerable to the powerful sniper ries. The ocers were on a mission to recover some 450 head of cattle stolen from the Samburu by suspected Turkana raiders some months ago. The ocers bodies were left uncollected for days even as the country woke up to the shocking incident. My husband had to go to Nairobi himself to identify the badly decomposed body. So far, we have not heard anything from the government representatives. It is like the deaths do not register on their conscience, said Mrs Esther Kahuho, Githinjis mother.

POPULATION | Young couples urged to take plan families
launched the report yesterday. In October, the National Council for Population and Development proposed that the average Kenyan woman gives birth to not more than three children. Currently, the birth rate stands at about ve children. Planning permanent secretary Edward Sambili urged young couples to take family planning methods seriously to stop the rapid population growth. The UN report says expanding access to family planning is essential as this could boost the attainment of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015. The WHO has noted that achieving the health-related MDGs will depend heavily on the extent to which health programmes can be integrated, shortfalls in funding met and underlying health systems strengthened in the respective countries Adolescents, unmarried people of all ages, men and boys, and other socially marginalised groups with restricted access to information and services are among key subpopulations that have not equally beneted from the recent gains in family planning, reads part of the global report.

Their demands are hinged on arguments that the salaries of magistrates were reviewed through allowances to correct a huge disparity that existed between the salaries of judges and magistrates. Paralegals in higher job groups such as section heads and executive secretaries beneted from last years review. The exclusion of the lower job groups from the review caused friction in the Judiciary almost resulting in a strike. It was, however, averted after the Government ordered the lower cadre sta be moved one job group up. The CJ asked the paralegals to form a representative team to meet the Judicial Service Commission.

Karua tells Uhuru and Ruto to drop bids over ICC cases
Gichugu MP says the country risks being isolated if one of them is elected President
BY HENRY NYARORA

The Narc Kenya leader said Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and Eldoret North MP William Ruto, who are facing ICC trials, should keep o the State House race since it could isolate the country from the international community. Election of either of them will not only impede the ongoing institutional reforms, but will also isolate our country from our development partners, she said. Speaking during campaign rallies in Nyamira County yesterday, Ms Karua said the two should adhere to the integrity clause in the Constitution and drop their presidential bids. If Mr Uhuru and Mr Ruto will not adhere to the rule of law, Kenyans should reject them at the ballot box, she said. She went on: We need to vet all aspirants and raise the bar of integrity as provided for by Chapter Six of the Constitution and ensure that we elect leaders without questionable integrity issues.

TNA has urged politicians in small parties who support presidential aspirant Uhuru Kenyatta to dissolve their outts and join the party. Speaking at Ol Kalou Township during a Nyandarua County aspirants forum yesterday, TNA secretary general Onyango Oloo (right) said some leaders claiming to be backing Mr Kenyatta for the top seat but had refused to dissolve their outts had a sinister motive aimed at wrecking the party. Mr Oloo said small parties were like a small boat that could capsize in a storm leaving a big steamer like TNA roaming the political seas towards State House. We are not forming any coalition with GNU. Let nobody tell you. He (Mwangi Kiunjuri) is supporting Uhuru and does not want to join TNA. Make it a six piece voting style where panties, socks, petticoats, pair of trousers, shirts and coats will
be TNA, he said. He went on: There is nothing like GNU or PNU supporting TNA. You are either with us or no case. Nobody can say he is supporting Uhuru yet he does not want to join Uhurus party. If you love him close your door and join TNA.
At the same time, the TNA ocial said politicians should also be considered for Cabinet secretary posts as they were also professionals. He said election losers, who remain loyal to TNA, would be appointed to positions in the senate, Parliament, county government posts among other government jobs. Politicians are also professionals who must be considered and TNA will defend that, he said.

erodes the overall objective of harmonising pay in the public service, Prof Muigai said the commission did not have powers to set or determine the remuneration of state corporation employees because they do not qualify as public ocers. In a letter to the Secretary of the State Corporations Advisory Committee, the AG said that state corporations were not established under the Constitution and thus were not state organs and their employees were not in the public service. The move has sparked a row with the Salaries Commission strongly disputing the AGs position arguing that it waters down the agencys mandate of harmonising the remuneration of all public ocers.

The SRC recently issued guidelines on its mandate, which denes public service organisations, over which it has powers, to include State or county corporations and any organisation in the public service established by law at either level of government. Prof Muigai, however, said that the denition could not be extended to include a state corporation because it is inconsistent with the denition of public service or oce provided in Article 260 of the Constitution. Mr Wamalwa said that the SRC was a new agency, which they wanted to ensure is given proper guidelines and remains within the connes of the law. We need to have a clear and consultative process to ensure the commission discharges its mandate according to the law, he said.
An aspirant for governor has pledged to turn Nairobi County into a 24-hour economy. Mr Jimnah Mbaru said yesterday: We can do it but what are needed are functional structures.

With this we will be able to make the Judiciary work at night and clear the backlog of cases, he added.

Punish heavily those saboteurs who vandalise our infrastructure for gain M
y friend, who shall for now remain unnamed, once told me the story of an organised African country which was having problems with boda bodas in its capital. The downtown area was so crammed with the bloody things, you couldnt get around. And why not? They were cheap for the customers and they used no fuel. But the city, which the government was keen to clean up, was choked. They banned boda bodas downtown. The people paid no attention; they continued to use them. An ultimatum was issued: anyone riding a bike into the city after a certain date would face very serious consequences. One rider was the rst to break the ultimatum and he ventured into the city on his bike, perhaps rationalising how he had a family to feed, that it could not be a crime to do honest work, and what did the government want him to do? What was more important, people or clean streets? There was the crack of a single shot and the rider crumbled on the road. A warning went out: in future, riders who broke the downtown ban and their passengers would henceforth be held responsible for the transgression. The country was stunned. How could you take a human life over a bike ban? What kind of animals had taken charge? On what law were the authorities killing people who, at the end of the day, were just riding bicyles? Was riding a bike a capital oence? The authorities broke their silence to say that an investigation into the incident was underway. I dont know the outcome of that investigation, if, indeed, there was one. But nobody ever too their bikes to the city again. Barbarism is a state where people stop obeying the law. They subordinate the bigger good to their own small greeds. In a properly functioning society, this is easily cured by punishing suh people consistently until they desist. In dysfunctional societies, the rule of law is enforced by the rule of the jungle. An army of thieves has been attacking infrastructure in this country and stripping o metal for sale as scrap. Kenya has just spent Sh30 billion on one of the best roads in Africa, the Thika Superhighway. The safety of motorists and pedestrians as well as the ease of use is ensured by signage, guard rails and shoulders. Each day, this army of thieves is stripping o millions of shillings worth of safety railing and signage. This is like scattering live grenades in the streets. It is a guaranteed to kill hundreds. The same gang has attacked manhole covers all over the country. Very soon, Kenya will have none. Power infrastructure, telephone cables, bre optic, every piece of infrastructure is under attack, constantly. These are people who wish to satisfy their greed for money by throwing the rest of us back to the Stone Age. They are endangering our security, our businesses and the economy. The way I see it, this is not a problem we should take to 2013; we should solve it in 2012. First, I think something precipitate can be done about the maa gangs that are going around the county stripping it of infrastructure. This requires strong legal measures involving arrest and prosecution for economic sabotage. But more important, and this was suggested by a colleague, the government
hree Turkana politicians are jittery about the despatch of Kenya Defence Forces personnel to Suguta Valley to search for the bandits who slaughtered 42 police ocers at the weekend. They would rather the government constituted a judicial inquiry into the ambush and execution of the ocers, a rather eete solution to a complex issue involving national security. In one sense, the politicians have a point. They are afraid that the army operation will lead to the intimidation and torture of their constituents, some of whom are already eeing the area. Certainly, when the army was deployed to rout the murderous Sabaot Land Defence Force in Mt Elgon, cases of excessive force against noncombatants were reported. Nevertheless, it seems the MPs are more afraid of their eeing constituents being unable to register to vote than in the deaths of the policemen, a selfserving and highly callous reaction. Which presents a quandary. How will a judicial inquiry lead to the apprehension of the bloodthirsty butchers before they turn their highly sophisticated weaponry on other law-enforcers? All we can ask the troops is that they exercise maximum restraint and avoid turning innocent civilians into collateral damage.

he recent deaths of more than 40 police ocers in Baragoi are hard to fathom. This unnecessary and unacceptable loss of life demonstrates fundamental problems in the security sector and in the governments relationship with historically marginalised communities. Instead of addressing the real issues political use of police for improper purposes, failure to train and prepare police ocers, complete failure of government to interact with pastoralist communities over decades, marginalisation and failure to protect minority rights the government appears primed to embark on a campaign of oppression in Baragoi. Will the State ever learn from its past mistakes in Northern Kenya? On Tuesday, November 13, during an invitation-only event, both Prime Minister Raila Odinga and National Assembly Speaker Kenneth Marende used their platform to address the issue of Baragoi and the governments impending response. Underneath the rhetoric and political bluster, it was clear that the Kenyan people should expect a second bloodbath in Baragoi in the coming days. The Prime Minister spoke of a serious and swift government response, and noted that these communities

and implied that a similar policy of counter-insurgency and subsequent provision of education to the population should be emulated in Kenya. Can it be possible that this is a model Kenya wants to follow? A day after Mr Marendes speech, a UN report was released detailing the failure of the international community to protect civilians during the governments counter-insurgency campaign, namely, UN Report Damns Failings During Sri Lankan Civil War Climax (The Guardian, November 14). The Sri Lankan governments actions in suppressing the Tamil Tigers have been roundly criticised as heavy-handed, leading to mass displacements, disappearances and torture, and tens of thousands of civilian deaths (Report of the SecretaryGenerals Panel of Experts on Accountability in Sri Lanka, March 31, 2011, para. 421). Indeed, the governments campaign (as well as that of the rebels) was characterised by the United Nations as a agrant disregard for the protection, rights, welfare and lives of civilians and [failure] to respect the norms of international law. Is this how Kenya plans to proceed, especially having just been elected to the UN Human Rights Council? We can pursue a dierent
path. The President has rushed to send in the army, but it is not too late to prevent yet another disastrous response by government security forces in Northern Kenya. The government should immediately consult with experts on the communities involved, including representatives of the communities themselves, as well as with the National Police Service Commission and Kenya National Commission on Human Rights. Those suspected of involvement in the killings of the police should be apprehended and brought to trial as prescribed under the Constitution. Human rights monitors should be immediately sent to the area to ensure that no civilians are harmed and to ensure that the military does not engage in illegal detentions, sexual violence, or other inhuman and degrading treatment of combatants or civilians. The military should not close o the region; it should allow its operations to be observed by human rights monitors, media, and other independent observers.

to three commercial banks, which provided access to about $160 million in credit to farmers and businesspeople. Our eorts demonstrated the eectiveness of this approach, which is now being taken up on a much larger scale by several African governments. In addition to building equitable partnerships, we must hold African governments and international donors accountable to keep and fund their commitments. For far too long, we have seen leaders pledge without paying. Agra is calling on leaders in Kenya to make the important pledge set forth in the Maputo Declaration nearly 10 years ago to invest 10 per cent of its national budget in agriculture. If we invest in agriculture today, African farmers can lead Kenya to a stronger economic future tomorrow. We must also continue to listen to the voices of farmers in Kenya and across
Africa. We must deliver solutions that address the challenges and opportunities they face every day in the elds and marketplace. One of the challenges facing smallholder farmers is climate change. Agra and its partners are promoting climate smart agriculture. Rebuilding soil health and enabling Africas smallholders to grow more on less land will reduce the pressure to clear and cultivate forests and savannahs, thus helping conserve biodiversity and the environment. Finally, farmers are looking to us to transform the business of agriculture on the continent. We must improve access to nancing so they can take their operations to scale. We must apply global best practices to dramatically increase yields; and we must demonstrate to our young people that there is a strong nancial future in farming. To reduce global hunger and malnutrition, and to help ensure a strong global economy, we need to form actionoriented partnerships, keep and fund our commitments, and maintain a focus on farmers that builds a more food-secure future for all.

TALKING POINT
SHORT TAKES
QUIT JUSTICE: I have been baed of late by the actions and pronouncements of minister for Justice, Eugene Wamalwa. Since his ministry handles sensitive electoral issues, and he is himself a presidential contender and partisan to a political grouping, he should be swapped to another ministry. When he talks of matters IEBC, one is prompted to think that he is the chair to the electoral commission. Besides, he is deeply engaged in shuttle diplomacy in support of presidential contenders accused of crimes against humanity. EDDIE OWEDHI, Kisumu WISH SINNERS WELL: I cant help but disagree with those wishing eternal damnation to sinners. This time round, it was Irene Maghuwa wishing that the Almighty would burn in Hades the bandits who killed our police ocers in Baragoi, Samburu District. (Nation, November 14.) No, God is not a human being. He is more interested in our repentance and change of lifestyle than punishing us. Though what the rustlers did is heinous, Irene should instead pray that they reform in jail or not so that we may live in peace. KIARIE PETER, Laikipia West SEE YOU IN COURT: Kenya has come a long way for us to enjoy the freedom of media and other rights, but I feel if Uhuru Kenyatta becomes President, he might take that away. I think he is the only presidential candidate who is taking media houses to courts. When one daily put a cartoon of him, he was furious, yet theres what we call public interest. President Zuma was portrayed naked in a cartoon but he didnt bother. Mr Kenyatta should leave the media alone, as it plays a crucial role. Leaders should learn to stay cool. OMBUI DOUGLAS AGANYO, Nairobi RUDE DRIVERS: KWS needs to crack down on those speeding inside parks, particularly the Nairobi National Park. Residents neighbouring the park who have annual passes are the worst culprits. They endanger the wildlife and visitors by speeding, with an overbearing attitude to boot that seems to imply that they are above the law. A rude arrogant driver on Wednesday at East Gate expected those ahead of the line to be ignored so he could be served, but when this didnt happen he hooted, then jumped out and demanded to be let through. He sped o, yet theres a reason its a park, not a freeway. NIKI JAN, Nairobi

Wrong footing
are keen on pushing this country towards the cli. Why this reckless approach? Is it ignorance on the part of the leadership or seeking the easier option to power irrespective of the consequences? Media comes in handy to keep the contenders on the right track. Elections are too important to be reduced to an ethnic contest. Why not base it on major issues that matter? Nation Media Group is leading on this from the front. Yesterday, the editorial pointed out the major issues on which the presidential aspirants should anchor their campaigns. Can the rest of the media houses follow suit? B. AMAYA, Nairobi
KRA should listen to the tax debate rather than defend itself
I have been following Mr Jaindi Kiseros articles in the Nation, regarding laws related to excise tax and in particular to the dispute between KRA and Coca Cola. Excise tax is levied on manufactured products. The returnable and reusable container fail to meet the cardinal criteria of manufacture. In any case the container is subject to a refundable deposit. This explains why the same are not subject to excise duty elsewhere in the world. Why tax a returnable bottle, which is environmentally safe and not plastic bags, which are environmentally unfriendly? But what is perhaps worrying is that KRA has admitted they had a negotiated a settlement which would have seen the bottlers pay a paltry gure. This against the law. KRA has no powers to vary tax due. Taxes have created mayhem in virtually all sectors. Laws must be framed with the payers in mind, and thought through. Experimentation has no place. SHEILA WARUGA KIMANI, Nairobi Jaindis was a great commentary (Nation, November 14). The tax man reects a typical Kenyan way of jumping on defence reex even when we should just listen to an exchange of ideas. The same tinkering of laws has turned most landlords into tax dodgers. Kenyans understand the amnesty language more than chest thumping. JOHN GITONGA, Nairobi

every time elections are held in Kenya illustrates the impact of ethnic-based politics. In the 2007 elections for example, political protagonists engaged in an intense struggle to capture the Electoral Commission of Kenya. This led to the disputed presidential results and the violence in which 1,133 were killed and 600,000 displaced. Access to and use of natural resources such as land, water, pasture, timber and oil can also cause ethnic conict. In Kenya, the use of land as a reward has been a major factor behind ethnic conicts, as this has often involved communally owned land. Deep-seated prejudices and cultural practices such as cattle rustling may also cause conict. A national survey by the Kenya Institute for Public Policy Research and Analysis (Kippra) in 2010 showed that

We do not want to see corruption in our country in future; we would like better and strong campaigns to eradicate this vice, which is so deep in our government and public operations. Future leaders of this country should shun corruption and ght it from the front and without fear.

ethnic relations in Kenya are generally cordial and that the challenge of negative ethnicity is surmountable. The survey that covered 2,805 households showed most Kenyans (95%) are proud to be Kenyan despite the fact that 36% are dissatised with life as a whole. Second, about four out of every ve (or 79%) Kenyans attach great importance to ethnicity in dening their identity, and hold the view that ethnic diversity is enriching in terms of social heritage, and contributes positively to national unity. However, most Kenyans prefer to identify themselves using non-ethnic labels such as Kenyans (40%), or religion, occupation, gender and social class (30%). Only 26% of Kenyans identify themselves using an ethnic designation, and this proportion falls sharply as one moves up the education ladder from 31.5% for those with no education to 8.2% for university graduates. This underlines the potency of education as a weapon in the war on tribalism. It is also encouraging that ethnic aliations seem to be more rooted among the more elderly people. Thus, 28.4% of persons aged 50 years or higher was more likely to identify themselves along ethnic or clan lines compared with only 16% among those aged under 20 years, and 22% among those aged 20-29 years. Third, eight out of every 10 Kenyans (80%) feel that people of dierent ethnic groups are getting along well, compared to only 62% who believe that dierent socio-economic groups are getting along well, suggesting class dierences are more pronounced than ethnic dierences. Fourth and related to the previous nding, in spite of the post-election violence in early 2008, most Kenyans (87%) reported not feeling uncomfortable or out of place on account of their ethnicity while 70% were not worried of becoming victims of crime due to their ethnicity. Moreover, most Kenyans attest to being non-tribal or tolerant to other ethnic identities. They indicate they have not experienced diculties living or relating, working or studying with people of dierent races, religions, ethnic groups or socio-economic class. Fifth, it is noteworthy, however, that only about 26% of Kenyans state that they completely trust members of other ethnic groups, a proportion signicantly
lower than that completely trusts their neighbourhood (about 44%) or members of their own ethnic group (about 45%). Sixth, Kenyans rank poverty, unemployment, corruption and insecurity as the more dicult problems ahead of ethnic tensions. Indeed, 56% of them believe that public goods are not fairly distributed regionally and 84% are convinced that more equal distribution of public goods would reduce ethnic tensions drastically. This was reinforced by over 60% of the respondents who were optimistic that both intra and inter-ethnic relations will improve over the next decade. This is good, as it suggests that negative ethnicity is not deeply rooted in the psyche of Kenyans. Kenya can tackle ethnic tensions and mistrust by opening up to the reality of the problem, discussing its causes and laying out a realistic strategy and action plan to address it. Key elements in the strategy and action plan should be elevation of the ght against negative ethnicity to the same level as (if not higher than) the ght against corruption or HIV. There should be zero tolerance to politicians and other segments of the society (including the media) who promote negative ethnicity. Kenya should also address the grievances that fan ethnic hostilities, including ensuring transparent and equitable distribution of national resources, public services and jobs. This will help to build public trust across the whole country; inclusion of aspects of positive ethnicity in the school curricula; restructuring of the quota system of education to encourage greater learner interaction across different ethnic groups; promoting the use of unifying languages such as Kiswahili and English in the work places and other public places; and promotion of sports and other intra and inter-ethnic associational activities by providing subsidies and developing an annual calendar of cultural events around the country spearheaded by top leaders and attended by representatives of dierent ethnic groups. But the main means of sustaining healthy ethnic relations is to accelerate economic growth and generating jobs especially for the youth. Dr Ikiara is former director, Kippra

rmed groups in DR Congos war-torn east province slaughtered more than 200 people including scores of children between April and September, hacking some to death and burning others alive, the UN said yesterday. At least 264 civilians, including 83 children, were arbitrarily executed by armed groups in more than 75 attacks on villages between April and September this year, the oce of the UNs High Commissioner for Human Rights said as it published a report into abuses in the Democratic Republic of Congos resource-rich east. Investigators focusing on the southern town of Masisi in North Kivu province uncovered evidence of victims being hacked to death with machetes. Others were burnt alive in their homes, investigators found, blaming the majority of the killings on two armed groups, Raia Mutomboki and their allies the Mayi Mayi. Raia Mutomboki is a homeland defence militia whose agenda is to ethnically cleanse the region, forcing all Kinyarwanda speakers out of DR Congo. But it has also seized the villagers it purports to be protecting, using them as porters. Fighters from an ethnic Hutu militia called Nyatura were also responsible for killings and other human rights abuses, the UN said, along with the Rwandan Hutu group the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR), which Kigali suspects includes ghters who took part in the 1994 genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda.

National Assembly speaker and ANC veteran Max Sisulu used the partys dominance to set aside the motion, brought jointly by eight opposition parties. The ANC, which holds just under two-thirds of the seats in the house, had described the motion as frivolous. That left opposition leaders crying foul.

NATIONAL INDIVIDUAL CONSULTAN -TO PLAN AND IMPLEMENT A MEDIA RETREAT ON GENDER AND DEVP. - UN WOMEN BACKGROUND UN Womens Sub regional Office for East & Horn of Africa is embarking on an ambitious effort to create a new generation of innovative, inclusive leaders and female entrepreneurs. While Africas development and economic integration continues apace, research indicates that unleashing the economic potential of the continents women would yield even greater results for development. There is mounting evidence that economic growth rates in Africa are being held back by the gap in opportunities available to the genders. As recently as March 2012, a study found that annually, the gender gap in labour participation and education creates economic losses for Africa of over $159 billion, and possibly as high as $255 billion. In an effort to redress this, UN Womens goal is to unleash the potential of Africas women, for the benefit of all, by promoting female leadership in business, politics and the non-government sector, and by advocating publicly in support of gender equality and womens empowerment. Given the key role played by the media in raising issues for public debate and discussion and mobilizing public opinion in favour of inclusivity and progress, UN Women sees East African media houses, journalists and new media practitioners as vital partners in this endeavor. Therefore, UN Women wishes to engage the services of a skilled and well-established consultant to ensure the successful implementation of a one and a half day media retreat, to be held on 13 and 14 December 2012. The full terms of reference is available at http://www.ke.undp.org/index.php/procurements/248 SPECIFIC TASK To develop and facilitate content for a one and a half day workshop for selected journalists and correspondents representing different media houses with regional coverage REMUNERATION Payment will be made in accordance with UNDP/UNWOMEN rules and procedures, which will be outlined in the contract.

Our people have an ardent love for life. They wish to have better education, more stable jobs, more income, greater social security, better medical and health care, improved housing conditions, and a better environment, he said. They want their children to have sound growth, have good jobs and lead a more enjoyable life. To meet their desire for a happy life is our mission. Mr Xi avoided mention of those communist luminaries, and expressed a desire for better relations with the outside world. Friends from the press, Mr Xi said, just as China needs to learn more about the world, so does the world need to learn more about China. I hope you will continue your efforts to deepen mutual understanding between China and the world. Over 19 minutes, Xi also warned that China faces numerous severe challenges such as widespread corruption and the partys alienation from the countrys 1.3 billion people.

Mr Xis standing was consolidated with his appointment as chief of the nations vast military, head of the Central Military Commission.

The airline on August 27 wrote to South Sudans Central Bank governor requesting an urgent allocation of Sh255 million to help it fund daily operations into Juba, which are dependent on dollars. It cited unavailability of sucient US dollars to cover jet fuel uplifts, aircraft lease rentals and imported aircraft spare parts which are repayable in dollars, the letter addressed to Mr Kornelio Mayik, South Sudans Central Bank governor, read in part. Mr Aluvale said the airline had been accumulating South Sudanese pounds in its accounts at Equity Bank and Kenya Commercial Bank, but the banks are unable to grant it any allocation of US dollars due to what it terms as currency and cross-border risks. The airline needs about $500,000 (Sh42.5million) per month to run its operations. Unable to access its money in South Sudan Jetlink says it had to rely on soft loan advances by Equity and KCB against their deposit in Juba. Unfortunately our Kenya bankers have recently advised us that they will no longer be able to grant us any further accommodation against our increasing deposited sales. This has left us in a situation where we are unable to meet short term obligations as they fall due, the statement further read. Jetlink is the rst Kenyan airline to start operations in South Sudan in 2005. It is a wholly-owned Kenyan Airline and operates scheduled domestic ights to Kisumu, Mombasa, and Eldoret and regionally to Juba and Mwanza. The dollar shortage has seen Kenyan commercial banks in South Sudan make a killing through sale of foreign currency.

vironment currently, mainly through growth in non-funded income, transaction-based fees and commissions from a sustained growth in customer numbers, Co-op bank managing director Gideon Muriuki said in a statement. Non-funded income increased to Sh5.85 billion, compared with Sh5.3 billion in 2011, while customer deposits rose 13.9 per cent to Sh156.8 billion against Sh137.7 billion reported in a similar period last year. This income was generated from automated teller machine commissions, agency banking services, personal and business banking commissions, M-banking, forex income and letters of credit. The banks loan book increased by 11.3 per cent to Sh118.4 billion from Sh106.4 billion in September 2011, while total assets increased to Sh197.7 billion compared with Sh167.5 billion registered in the same period in 2011. The bank, which looks to open its rst branch in South Sudan early next year, on a joint basis with the South Sudan government, saw its shareholder funds increase by 48 per cent to Sh28.9 billion from Sh19.6 billion to support its expansion plans. The bank said that it is targeting to grow its agency banking network to over 5,000 before the end of the year from 4,000 agents currently.

INVESTIGATIONS | More than 37 police ocers were killed by raiders in Suguta valley
INFANT MALE CUT REDUCES DISEASE RISK Circumcision of boys just after birth gaining popularity. Page 35

eaders and residents from Turkana and Samburu communities want a commission of inquiry constituted to investigate the bandit attack in Baragoi. Forestry and Wildlife assistant minister Josephat Nanok, Samburu East MP Raphael Letimalo and local leaders from Baragoi said the commission should explore causes of perennial hostilities between the two pastoral communities and suggest solutions. Mr Nanok, who is also the Turkana South MP, said Kenyans and particularly families that lost their relatives deserve to be told why the government dispatched ocers who were not well prepared for the operation. About 41 police ocers, including eight police reservists, died in the operation.

Administration Police ocers wait to unload bodies of their colleagues at the Chiromo Mortuary on Tuesday. At least 39 ocers were killed in the attack. Leaders in the area have blamed politicians for the mayhem and called on the government to nd a long-term solution to the conict.
politicians are using the Provincial Administration in the county to harass their perceived political opponents ahead of the next General Election. Councillor Edapal Namugelem and Mr Daudi Kona, a resident of Baragoi Village where the attacks took place said some senior politicians could be behind the lawlessness in order to portray one community negatively. Already, Turkana herders from Nachola, Lokorkor and Lomirok villages on the border of Samburu North and Turkana South have crossed Suguta valley to Turkana for fear of retaliatory attacks, Mr Kona said. The government, they said, should
The minister said: We should be clearly told the genesis of this problem. Just sending the military to the area is a reactive approach. Just as the government formed a commission of inquiry to investigate the Tana Delta killings, we want a team formed for Baragoi. He said there is need for a long lasting solution to end the perennial cattle rustling and banditry among the pastoral communities, which has been going on for many years. At the same time, residents from Turkana County accused some senior inuential politicians from Samburu

They claimed that the politicians are using their inuence in the government to scare o their perceived opponents ahead of the March 4 General Election. The report also indicates that the politicians were inciting the Samburu community against the Turkana particularly those living in Samburu North where Baragoi is located. Some of the security ocers are Samburu morans who had been given police uniforms, the report said.

Lawyers for the duo asked for more time to le a reply to which the court ordered that they respond in three weeks and get a hearing date from the registry.

recent study has shown that circumcising male infants is safer, less expensive and a means of HIV prevention. As adult male circumcision programmes scale up in the Nyanza region with statistics showing 235,000 circumcised in the past three years, Infant Male Circumcision (IMC) is gaining popularity, according to the survey. The study, which was done in ve public hospitals in Nyanza Province by researchers from the University of Illinois, Chicago, showed the region had registered a higher number of infants undergoing the procedure two hours after birth.
East Africa. IMC is a study of its kind to assess acceptability. As a result, its uptake in East Africa will depend much on the decision of parents. Since the study was conducted in 2010, about 15,000 male infants in Nyanza have been circumcised, Dr Odoyo said. He added that 1,261 infants were registered in Siaya District , Kombewa, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, Kisumu District hospital and Lumumba hospitals. The study enrolled 627 mothers and 493 fathers while 312 mothers declined the services. FREE SERVICE
Safe method
The infants are circumcised between two hours after birth and 60 days. This, the researchers say, is a safe and convenient method because it neither involves stitching nor bleeding. The service is free in public health institutions. The eligibility of the child includes consent from both parents, the infant must be healthy and weighing at least 2.5kg. The procedure takes ve minutes and the baby is injected with anaesthesia to reduce pain. It takes a week for the new-born to fully heal.
It further revealed that boys circumcised in infancy do not suffer risks of urinary tract infections in the first year of life. According to Dr Elijah June Odoyo, one of the lead researchers in the study and director of the Unim project (University of Illinois, Nairobi and Manitoba), the outcome of the babies registered was positive despite the fact that infant circumcision is little known in

Red Bulls Sebastian Vettel drives during at the Yas Marina circuit during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on November 4. The next race will be in Texas on Sunday.
Red Bull driver seeks to become the youngest ever triple world champion
Austin, Texas
ebastian Vettel can make his 100th Formula One race the United States Grand Prix an historic one here on Sunday by being crowned the youngest ever triple world champion. The 25-year-old German, and his Red Bull team, could make it a night for double celebrations if they take both the drivers and teams titles in a country where he made his debut as a baby-faced 19-year-old stand-in at Indianapolis in 2007. That last United States Grand Prix, ve years ago, was won by Briton Lewis Hamilton of McLaren and, this time around, he will once again be a major contender for victory in his penultimate race for the team before he leaves for Mercedes. But both championship leader Vettel and Hamilton know they face a challenge this
weekend from two-time champion Spaniard Fernando Alonso of Ferrari who is 10 points behind the German in the title race and still convinced he can secure his own third title. Finn Kimi Raikkonen of Lotus, victorious in Abu Dhabi, will also be a threat. Vettel, who replaced Pole Robert Kubica at BMW Sauber in 2007, managed to qualify seventh and nish eighth, his single point for that feat making him F1s youngest pointsscorer a record that he still holds. Unknown Circuit of the Americas As he looked ahead to this weekends showdown at the virtually unknown Circuit of the Americas, a purpose-built track 15 miles from Austin city centre, he admitted he could hardly believe it. Its all gone so quickly, he said. One hundred is a big number - 100 grands prix sounds a lot:
100 starts, 100 times surviving the rst corner. If I reect on it, it doesnt feel so long ago that I broke into Formula One... That shows me that time ies when you do something that you really like and enjoy, so lets focus on the second 100! Typically, Vettel has not dwelt on the various permutations that could land him the title this weekend. He knows that with a 10-point lead he can secure the title with a victory this weekend and that is his clear goal. He goes into the race with two races worth a maximum of 50 points for two wins available remaining. He has 255 points to Alonso 245. In spite of his extraordinary success in the last three seasons, there are many who still nd it dicult to pour praise on Vettel and this week that list grew longer with the addition of 1997 drivers champion Jacques Villeneuve.

Muthaiga player recovers from a poor start to go joint-top with Mumias star at PGK Pro-Am
BY LARRY NGALA
lngala@ke.nationmedia.com uthaiga Golf Clubs Nelson Mudanyi recovered from three back-to-back bogeys in the opening nine to share the rst round lead with long-hitting Dismas Indiza as the big chase for Sh2 million PGK Pro-Am got under way at Kenya Railway Golf Club yesterday. Mudanyi, who turned professional in the United States two months ago at the end of his studies, bogeyed the rst, second and third holes and a late one at the seventh, but birdied the fourth, eighth and ninth holes. He picked two quick birdies at the start of the back nine, dropped a shot at the 15th but recovered one at the 16th for one under par 69. I started badly, dropping three shots but managed to squeeze in six birdies there after which was my game plan anyway. But I still believe a 65 is possible tomorrow, said Mudanyi, who missed the green on two at the 18th to miss a possible 68. Indiza on the other hand birdied the second, seventh and ninth after bogeying the rst and fth at the front nine. He again made three birdies at the back nine where he also dropped three shots to wind up the rst nine on 69. The usually par 72

INTERNATIOMAL FRIENDLIES | Inspirational captain puts four past England in brilliant individual display at Friends Arena
thought, Should I go in for the duel, or wait for him to put it out? the Sweden captain told reporters. When he put it out, I had it in my mind to score to try to score. I tried to put it in the goal and when I was on the ground, I saw a defender trying to get it, but it went in. Ibrahimovic did not regard it as his best performance for Sweden, however. I think Ive done many, many great games, said the Paris Saint-Germain striker. It was important to play a good game in the new arena. But if you ask me which goal I liked most, Id say the rst goal, because it was a historic goal the rst goal in the new arena. Ibrahimovics performance overshadowed Steven Gerrards 100th England appearance, but the Liverpool midelder could not help but admire the Sweden strikers display. I have been playing football a long time but Zlatans fourth goal is probably the best goal I have seen live, he told BBC radio. I cannot pay a bigger tribute than that. Sweden coach Erik Hamren said that Ibrahimovics fourth goal was not possible , and went on to laud his match-winner for his maturity as a captain. Hes been really, really good, said Hamren. Especially with the young guys he was their hero when they were growing up, and now theyre sitting beside him. Yesterday (Tuesday), after lunch, I saw him sitting with the three least experienced players; sitting and talking with them. And they were eating his words, listening so intently. It was really good.
Elsewhere, France followed up their impressive 1-1 draw against world and European champions Spain in a World Cup qualier last month with a 2-1 win over Euro 2012 nalists Italy in Parma. Germany and Portugal had to settle for draws - the Germans drawing 00 with arch-rivals the Netherlands in Amsterdam and the Portuguese, playing without the absent Cristiano Ronaldo, held 2-2 by Gabon. A poor result in a friendly doesnt often provoke a sacking but Chiles Argentinian coach Claudio Borghi was told enough was enough after his side slumped to a 3-1 defeat by Serbia - it came on top of a disappointing series of results in South American qualifying for the 2014 World Cup. Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni too wont be feeling too comfortable as his side slumped to a 1-0 home defeat by Greece. (AFP) SELECTED RESULTS

he Administration Police Training College (APTC)Commandant, Mr Omar Shurie, asked the Police Service Commission to investigate and take action against any ocer who deliberately gave false information against the candidates. Mr Shurie was the rst to be interviewed for the position of deputy Inspector General of police in charge of the AP. He said that it was an oence for any ocer to knowingly make false accusations against colleagues or any other person. The commission has been conducting interviews in public and had requested the members to submit any information, which they believed had a bearing on the suitability of the candidates. The same was echoed by CID boss Ndegwa Muhoro who, on Wednesday, said that any
institution that routinely failed to take stern action on discovering that its ocers had committed acts of indiscipline would eventually lose its credibility. The vice-chairperson of the commission, Ms Esther Chui-Colombini, concurred and said they would investigate the matter. Mr Shurie said that there was need to properly train the ocers to be professional and those involved in military operations be well trained and equipped. I want Kenyans to remember me for reforming the Administration Police Service through proper training and discipline, he said. Some members of the public and other serving police ocers and written to the commission claiming that Mr Shurie was a rude and arrogant man who favoured his tribesmen, but he dismissed the allegations as unfounded. Even at the college where I am the commandant, there is no senior ocer from my community, he said. The commandant said that as the head of training, he took discipline seriously and that may have been the reason behind the allegations. The commission also inter-

viewed Ms Zipporah Mboroki and Mr Dalmas Otieno. Ms Mboroki said that she would push for research and training to improve the service while Mr Otieno said that his rst priority would be to restore the services reputation. Last to be interviewed was Ms Margaret Karanja Nyambura, who is based at Harambee House, Nairobi. Ms Karanja, a pioneer AP
advocate said her priority would be training. Today, acting AP Commandant Samwel Mwongera Arachi, Eusebius Laibuta, deputy CID boss Gideon Muoki Kimilu, and Fred Mbithi will be interviewed. The interviews are scheduled to end tomorrow with Mr David Karungu Ngori and Alexander Mr Kyenze Munyao facing the panel.

Ed says...
WE SPEND MOST OF our lives trying to avoid, absolutely, those situations that we perceive to be nightmarish. Losing your job, the death of a loved one, or a scenario where you are without those you love and are dependent on, being invisible.... If what we perceive is often wrong, how can we ever know whats real...? was a question posed by Eric McCormacks character, Professor Daniel Pierce, in the investigative drama Perception. Although fictional, the happenings in the series give one the feeling that maybe we are not allowing ourselves to be imaginative enough. Remember what the supposedly autistic Einstein said about imagination being more important than knowledge? Well, it was, I imagine, a combination of both that led a British doctor to discover ways of communication with a comatose patient said to be in a clinically vegetative state. Imagine, visualise, is what gymnasts, dancers, engineers do before they create a move or gadget that others then call amazing, revolutionary, impossible. But they do it. The impossible, much like a deaf man being a maestro or a couple of teenage girls powering a generator with urine. Eking out a living by moving your body in rhythmical and unnatural ways has seen children disowned by their own mothers. And still, these children do it, and do it so well that they have entire nations and distinguished presidents gawk in awe. One such person is Judy Mwaura. So impossibly good has she become that musicians in this country clamour to have her feature in their videos. Issa Khalid eshes out that story for you on Page 8. Now, as far as singers go, there is only so much one can do with their voice; some can do more than others, of course. It is to the some category that Nanjira, a bubbly, yet quiet (ironic, I know) character, so ttingly belongs. She not only entertains, but gets people o their high horses and out of their comfort zones with her sometimes biting lyrics. A singer, not a rebel, with a cause is what we have decided to call her. More on her on Page 5. For you ravers, if you missed the Safcom VIP party at the Carnivore, you must not have used that imaginative part of your brain to get in, or even think about getting in (I jest). There are however, the sights and worded atmosphere of the event that night. See that from Page 6. Lastly, as you go about your mundane tasks in the week ahead, remember, it all ends and it all begins... and repeat. So while you have still got breath in you, go ahead and shake the tree a bit and, at the risk of dropping a few raw mangoes, get the ripe ones we need to make a salad that will leave others gawking in awe. But mostly, it will just satisfy that needy part of them that reminds them that they can do what many others cannot, will not, and can never imagine doing.
SO WHILE YOU HAVE STILL GOT BREATH IN YOU, GO AHEAD AND SHAKE THE TREE A BIT

COMIC BOOK
INSIDE
MANY MONTHS AGO, Point Blank Evumbi featured as an up-and-coming rapper, part of a group that only a few are aware exists, and one that uses ciphers in the making of their art. Now, PBE has gone all Modesty Blaise. Well, not quite, but near enough. On the HomeGuard Facebook page he writes: [it] is the tale of two Kenyan detectives; Timothy Chief and Ben Kipter, whos sole mission is to protect the citizens of Kenya from organised crime, murder, and tracking of all forms. The Home Guards defend us from the criminals of the world who intend to destroy our great cities, we rest assured Justice will prevail. You get from the onset a sort of lack of continuity, and it is rather riddled with errors bad editing is to blame. However, it makes for interesting read, giving you hope that Marvelesque readership is not too ridiculous a dream. The best part was recognising in PBEs comic book (or shall we call it a graphic novel) the streets (Koinange) and buildings of Nairobi. It feels instantly, like home in black and white. There is always room for improvement, but for the eort made, we give an A+

TWENTY FIVE per cent of the people in a Zimbabwe tribe are born with only two toes. This is due to a rare genetic condition called ectrodactyly, or also lobster claw syndrome. Although it occurs in the general population, it is particularly common in the Vadoma tribe of western Zimbabwe. The genetically-dominant condition aects about one in four babies born in the tribe. Some theorise that it might have an adaptive benet if it aids in tree climbing. However, the most likely reason for this condition to persist in this population is twofold: 1. The trait is genetically dominant, and 2. The gene pool is limited among the Vadoma. It is against tribal law for people to marry outside the group (OMG-facts.com)

Glamour and fashion were evident among the ladies, who looked hot in high, classy heels and short, colourful dresses.

The event started with a welcome note from KEMU Student Organisation chairman Raymond Chihota. Next was Comedy Clubs Nathan Kimani aka JB, the MC for the night. The judges were Keith Chuaga, Dorothy Oliechi, and Tony Muturi and the guest of honour Prof Robert Gateru. Octopizzo showed up straight from the oven of the Kisima Awards looking stunning. He got the house on re with his popular hit Ivoivo.
At the end of the catwalk, Isabel Kamani and George Irungu were crowned second runnersup while Christopher Gumunyu and Sarah Justice

TURF, an extreme contortionist dancer, wowed and weirded-out his audience with strange dance moves that didnt always rhyme with the music in Americas Got Talent. And sometimes, though they gave him standing ovations, it was with looks of horror in their eyes...
What is the criteria for any girl who wants to be a video vixen or dancer?
Simple, stand out. Maintain your look. When you do auditions, they will give you a song to dance to, if you are good, they call you and you sign the contract.
THE PAY FLUCTUATES DEPENDING ON THE ARTISTE YOU ARE WORKING FOR.
hen I rst came across this girl, I did not know what to expect because she has such a rabid fan base throughout the country, down to her explosive style. I had heard a lot of things about this famous dancer and it was nerve-wrecking preparing for this sit-down. The world of street dancing is mean and gutsy. I am still waiting for someone in this country to stand tall and boast a pay cheque as a result of this. You need plenty of courage, a heart of gold, and tonnes of luck to break through. This is what, in my opinion, makes Judy stand out. And, boy, does she stand out! She walked up to me in saggy blue jeans, a sweater that covered her all the way to her palms and snickers. She looked as if she was about to unleash a boom box and start a ash mob. Here is what I managed to squeeze out of her as we sat over lunch.
Now that you mentioned money, tell me, does dance in Kenya actually pay?
Elastic is what I would call it. The pay uctuates, depending on the artiste you are working for. It takes a lot of passion to wake up every morning and keep going because after a hard days work, if you get peanuts, that is that. There is no remuneration standard in this game.
ness challenge held in Ghana and Nigeria in 2011 after winning here in Kenya in 2009. My breakthrough was with my former dance crew, Sisko, in P-Units Una video. Currently, I am doing a number of jobs with local artistes here like Wyre, Muthoni DQ, and Waweshs daughter, Yommi. Reason being if you make good relations with them now, anything is possible.
What is the best and worst pay day you have had in your career, now spanning three years?
This embarrasses me to say, but I once got bus fare back home. Would you imagine that? Then on a good day, you can get between Sh7,000 and Sh10,000, again depending on the contract.
That is little, huh? Why do you think this is the situation in the dance industry? Underpaying jobs?
The aspect of video vixens is pretty new and unsupervised; no real criteria as to what you should get. Again, the issue of money is all up to who you work for. Most dancers really need that money, so they end up taking it just to stay aoat.
Judy, pleasure to meet you. I am going to get right to it. Whats with the style?
My look is my business, it is what makes me a cut above the rest. Why? You dont like it?
I do. Its splendid! Introduce yourself to the masses then. Tell us what you do.
I am Judy Mwaura, a 22-year-old dancer-choreographer of hip hop videos on the local music scene. I also dance with The Black Blingers, who happen to be the ocial Avril Nyambura dancers.
It seems like a legit job in my eyes. Why do you think people often criticise dancing in videos as modern-day prostitution?
That depends. You see, my parents know I dance and they are supportive of my career choice at the moment. If you have good motives, then by all means do it and Godspeed, but if you are just in it for the fame and appeal, then you are the reason we have all these stereotypes. Speaking for myself, I do it because I love dancing, and thats it.
That is really nice to hear; someone true to the cause. Any big jobs in your locker we should know about?
Yes. Not to brag, but I was the only girl representing Kenya at the Malta Guin-

JUDY SHOWS US SOME OF HER DANCE MOVES ALL PHOTOS | CHARLES KAMAU
I arrive sharply dressed and ready to get jiggy. Nonchalantly walking through the halls, I run into a girl. Skimpily clad and her mascara running, she seems distraught. I want to stop her and ask what the matter is, but she ies past me in a wink and I keep walking. Getting to the studio door, I come across a line of beautiful women. Most of them wearing layers of make up the size of a building block, but that does not stop me from ogling. The director ushers me into the room and tells me they are casting for extras and need my keen eye for the best dancer.
By this time, we have had a number of girls. Dressed in bare minimums, they danced their bones ragged. As expected, some got picked, some got dropped. Then walks in this girl. Says her name is Lisa. She is nervous; you can tell from the way she plays with her hands and her feet keep drawing continents. So the DJ hits play and she starts her routine. Maybe it is her shoes or the hot weather, but she keeps tripping and falls over once or twice. The producer gets fed up and asks her to leave. Hysterical, she starts to cry and goes down on her knees, begging him for another chance. He retorts rather harshly that she came dressed like a nun and danced like a toddler taking its rst steps. She says she would do anything to get the part, but he still does not budge. Anything! She repeats and it is here that I notice him sit up. Beckoning her over to his revolving chair, he whispers a few things and, voil! we have the nal girl to ll the roster. So here comes the dilemma for me on this day; what do these girls give up to get on TV? Their morality? What is the line we draw? To this moment, I do not know what deal was struck. Many people will unjustly conclude this story and assume that she gave up herself for the part. This is the unfair bias that these girls have to deal with every time their faces show up on camera. It is not a
3.00pm
matter of what they are doing in a music video. The basis is this; if you are on a video all dolled up and dancing, then you are a harlot. What we forget is that this is now a career. Look at the captivating Melissa Ford Video Vixen. She made millions appearing as an extra on videos, and became so famous and sought after that The Game took a swing at her in his song, Couldnt Get Far. A whole established rapper with platinum sales attacking a lowly video girl. Why? It is simple. She became someone. It is a profession just like any other with its own pros and cons. The better you are at dancing, the better conditioned your body is, the more money you will bring in. Endorsements? All of those girls from Victorias Secret push some amazing products. In late 2011, we saw Irina Shayk and Christine Teigen playing video game characters in Need for Speed: The Run. When David Beckham advertised Georgio Armani boxers in nothing but the aforesaid, people ululated. Some still keep these pictures as their wallpaper, yet a girl cannot get her money by using her God-given beauty for our entertainment even if she is covered head to toe? Can we really equate this to modern-day prostitution? I think not. I think it is about time we eloped into a new realm of possibilities where money does not necessarily fall into your lap or only come to those in desk jobs. These girls are selling a product; the song, not themselves. It is a job that pays their bills and feeds them. It is time we got real and embraced this new culture. After all, the only constant is change. Right?

But from Turfs own mouth, he now lives in an apartment that has been paid for by his dancing.
Hed been homeless for two whole years after his mother kicked him out for wanting to be a dancer... that didnt stop him. His routine is a little bit grotesque, true, but people like strange things, and strange he is. Winner of Americas Got Talent or not, hes got peoples attention. Even the circus might approach him.

This movie denitely did not represent the ages of rock. My condence in the cast was ripped to shreds after Russell Brand was depicted as a gay bar assistant.

TECHNO BITE
y deepest condolences to the families and friends of the security officers who were killed by rustlers in Baragoi. They died serving the nation and they are, indeed, heroes. They forever will be remembered for their dedication to the people they swore to protect. President Kibaki on Tuesday decided to send in the army to hunt the attackers, and the country knew that things were about to get super thick for anyone suspected to be behind the brutal killings. The uniformed forces are known to be extremely protective of their own and history is littered with stories of moments of revenge that shocked the world. Whenever the army or the GSU are unleashed on any part of Kenya, then you know whoever shook the beehive will have long days and cold nights. Just ask the leader of MRC what

happened when he received visitors in the middle of the night recently. Let us just say that when he looked at himself in the mirror the next day, he could not recall how he had looked a few hours before. If he was put in a line-up and his wife told to identify him, she would have insisted that he was not there. You see, once you harm one of the uniformed forces, no amount of preparation will help you. Even divine intervention will not work for you. Nobody knows the day nor the hour of their coming, but their presence will be felt
by all and their actions a lesson in revenge. Remember Mt Elgon? When the army ventured into that forest, they left with the head of the leader and many were left in shock, vowing never to repeat the rebellion. The use of deadly force was rampant during the Moi regime, but do not kid yourself; touch a cop and you are as good as dead. They leave such an indelible mark on people that not even death can wipe it out. It is sad that 42 police ocers can be ambushed and killed, but watch the reaction. That is when the human rights activists will pull out their placards and start marching in the streets. They are quiet now because, well, they really do not know how to react to this. The person they love to hate is hurt and consoling him just is not part of their JD. But they have started working on the placards and the press statements, getting ready for when the cries start echoing across Suguta Valley. They know that the that the forces may be down but they will soon bounce back like a well-inated ball. Even the Maa and their sophisticated way of life know that policemen, as much as they are the enemy, are not to be touched. Whenever a trigger-happy guy fells a uniformed one, he is killed or even sacriced and apologies sent. They know better because the few times they did not apologise, they found their leaders behind bars for life and their organised crime thoroughly disorganised. So let us wait and see what will happen in Samburu County because heaven knows it will not be pretty. And while it will not bring back the ocers, their own will try and somehow avenge them. You do not have to endorse sending the troops after the rustlers. But you know ocers cannot just be killed willy-nilly and the perpetrators allowed to get away with it. Cue the horror sound tracks.
Current phones support the older networks (2G), current networks (3G), and some are even equipped for future networks (4G).
NOT MANY PEOPLE UNDERSTAND MOBILE NETWORKS, BUT HARRIET OCHARO DUMBS IT DOWN A LITTLE FOR US
THE WORDS 2G, 3G, AND 3.5G are in the air and not many people understand exactly what they mean. The G in these phrases simply stands for generation, so the higher the number before the G, the better the connection you will get. I will try and explain without going into technical details lest I lose my readers. The rst generation of mobile networks used circuit switches, basically a limited capacity network. It allowed only voice calls and was designed much like the wired networks of landlines. Moreover, there was no standard way of setting up the networks, so each country had its own and manufacturers had to make dierent devices for dierent countries. In 1990, the GSM (global system for mobile communication) described European standards which have been adopted almost worldwide for the second generation of networks

that initially allowed data communication in addition to the traditional voice calls. Data communication occurred through a protocol called GPRS general packet radio service, and later improved speeds through EDGE enhanced data rates for GSM networks. When Safaricom and Kencell rst rolled out their networks in Kenya, they rolled out this second generation networks, that is 2G networks. Most of the mobile phones in circulation then could only support 2G networks and Internet speeds on mobile phones were rather slow. You can check the icons at the top row of your phones screen, if it shows a G, that is GPRS, and E is for Edge, and H or H+ is for 3G networks. As with every technology, there is always evolution. The third generation of networks (3G) have brought us fast Internet speeds on mobile phones and modems. However, 3G networks are costly to set up and that is why the entire country is not yet covered by them. Safaricom has the widest 3G coverage in Kenya, so if you travel a lot within the country and need internet, you are better o with a Safaricom modem. If you spend most of your time in cities where other mobile network providers are present, then you
will consider costs, and Orange has some unlimited data oers while Airtel oers competitive prices and speeds. Current phones support the older networks (2G), current networks (3G), and some are even equipped for future networks (4G). When you are in an area with 3G coverage, your phone will connect to that network, and if 3G is not available it will connect to the 2G one. So there are two networks in operation at the same time. Since most people still have phones that do not even need the Internet, there is no need to switch to the more expensive 3G all over the country. The future networks (actually not really the future because it is already here) is 4G networks or long term evolution networks (LTE). These networks oer even faster speeds and better quality, and the rst mobile company in the world to roll out a 4G network is EE in the United Kingdom. Users of new gadgets in the market like the Samsung Galaxy S III that can support 4G networks will be happy to enjoy the fast speeds that their devices demand for smooth operation.

adies, how many times do you need to hear this that men are visual animals? What would make you stop thinking it is the end of the world when your man eyes another woman? Okay, I know the Good Book condemns coveting a.k.a sin by thought, but behold, the Good Book also allows people to ask for forgiveness over and over, I suspect because the Almighty knows there will be millions of male thought sinners over and over. But I digress. So yes, ladies, back to the topic of the day has your man, for instance, ever asked you to please not lose too much weight because he likes you meaty, but when you take a walk with him on the streets, he cannot seem to keep his eyes o petite skin-on-bones girls? Well, not to worry do not castigate him for seemingly admiring that petite girl DALLIANCE DIARY who makes you feel like an elephant, but castigate him for letting you catch him doing it. The sooner women accept that men are visual animals, the easier it will be for them to deal with the tribe of Adam. As long as a man has functioning eyesight, he will use it, and often, not to look for investment opportunities, but for supporting documents belonging to other women. The good news is, the average man will remember nothing about that woman as soon as she is out of sight; yup, out of sight, out of mind. As much as we hate it when our men do it, looking at other women does not translate into cheating, it does not mean that he does not think that you are the most beautiful woman in the world, it does not mean he is a randy brother; it just means that he has not learned the art of coveting in secret. So, if he admires that skinnier than you girl, do not worry; he still prefers his woman a little meaty, but like any man, or human for that matter, he desires, even for a little while, what he does not have usually not harmful, and as unlikely as it sounds, it might even serve to remind him what a beautiful woman he has. As for you men, there would probably be world peace if you could stop coveting so blatantly. Look, we know you look, but we would rather pretend we are the only women you literally see; that to you, every other woman looks like a man, totally sexually unappealing unless, of course, you butt for the other side. Next time you look at a woman, whether with lust, pity, or disgust, keep it to yourself. If it is with lust, she might slap you silly in front of your friends; not cool. If you look at another woman with pity (maybe she was left by her boyfriend or she looks ridiculous in her chosen outt), we will demand to know why you feel compassion for her like, is she your sister? If you look at her with disgust, we will not believe you; we might think you like her a lot, but you are angry that you cannot have her, that you are faking disgust then we might slap you silly in front of your friends. Moral of the story; men, keep looking for all we care, but do it discreetly and for Petes sake do not try to have your way with other women. Ladies, take consolation in the fact that there are other men looking at you the same way yours is looking at other women. Fair game! cikukimani254@gmail.com

50th straight unbeaten league game. It was their rst defeat in 50 games. Makes someone wish they could rearrange the results and put the defeat before the 50 games streak. It is almost as if all they desired was to match the Arsenal Invincibles record and no sooner had they attained that than the bolts and hinges fell o the football gears, eventually grinding to a halt at the hands of their title rivals, Inter Milan. Meanwhile in a land of abnormal footballers and weird goal tallies, after the weekend of no goals for Messi (and Ronaldo and Falcao), the Argentine (and Ronaldo minus Falcao) emphatically came back last weekend, slotting in two against Real Mallorca to go one up against Peles milestone record of 75 goals in one calendar year. Interesting is, aside from the previous weekend, 26 October, 2011 was the last time in Spanish football that all the three mad men Messi, Ronaldo, and Falcao failed to score in a La Liga football weekend. That is over a year of Spanish football. Messi is now nine goals shy of equalling the all-time Ger
Mullers record for goals scored in one calendar year, something we will not hope he does not do since we all know he will, either way. Neymars Pele scored 75 times overall for Brazil and Santos in 1958 while Mller managed a milk-souring and toe-curling 85 in 1972 for West Germany and Bayern Munich. Known for his public disapproval of Messi, Pele will probably come out saying that had EA sports been there in 1952, he would be all the three players covering FIFA52 the game. I could even play as a false 8.7 he adds, spotting a Neymar-ish Mohawk, head band and nose tape. Meanwhile Andriy Shevchenko has been oered the big oce next to the ablutions i.e. Ukraines head coach job by the Ukraine FA, which will be looking to ameliorate the countrys current standing in the undoubtedly impartial FIFA rankings, something that will have to include the head coach working on their goal scoring eciency, sucient proof that Ukraines Nyamweya obviously never watched this man at Stamford Bridge.

NADIA DARWESH GETS INTO THE NITTY-GRITTY OF STOCKING UP ON THE ESSENTIALS FOR THE SHORT RAINS OF NOVEMBER... OR IS IT THE BLAZING SUN?
Before you do this, I recommend that you ask yourself this question: Do I really need more sweaters? Really? Do not get me wrong; if you have the means, by all means buy what you want and go crazy. If you do not, on the other hand, keep your feet on the ground. Buy what you need only if there is no alternative. For example, it makes no sense to buy a raincoat when you have an ecient umbrella. It makes no sense to buy an extra pair of mud shoes when you have old sneakers at home. Be thrifty. The odds are that once the season changes, the price of all of this weather-
he short rains have ocially started, bringing with them the expected confusion and chaos. I know that some of us are having trouble dealing with this change in the weather, so I have compiled a list of tips to help you cope.
A beanie, in Kenyan English, is a marvin. I am sure that we all know that a marvin is a snug article of headgear used to keep warm in cold weather. Or at least they are supposed to be used in the cold. A beanie can come in handy when you are caught in a drizzle that falls between precipitation that seems almost imaginary and a full out downpour. This is especially true for women who cherish their hair. This light rain may not feel like much, and it is only when you get home that you realise the amount of damage that has been done. Hence a beanie. Beanies can also help the ladies avoid the plastic-bag-covering-the-head scenario, which is embarrassing, if I may say so myself. I recall when we recently came out of class to nd it raining cats and dogs. A friend bought us identical green plastic bags at ve bob each so that we could walk together. It helped, but I do not think I will ever forget the group of men who jeered at us as we passed, saying, Kwani ni uniform? Not terribly embarrassing, but no woman wants to walk around with a nylon bag on her head. The great thing about beanies, though, is you that can wear the plastic bag underneath as added reinforcement and no one will even notice it. Another great thing about beanies is that they can brighten your wardrobe and act as a statement. I am no certied fashionista, but I know for a fact that when worn right, they can be chic. For those who have to dress ocially, a beret can work, as can a beanie that suits your dressing. In this case, quality and colour is everything. To conclude, beanies are pretty cheap, selling from around Sh150. Get one that is the right style and t, and you are sorted in case of any rain-mergencies .

IF YOU HAVE THE MEANS, BUY WHAT YOU WANT, BUT IF YOU DONT...
themed merchandise will go down. When that happens, look out for great clearance sales of sweaters and jackets in stores as well as bargains in the market. This way, you will denitely be sorted when the next rainy season rolls around.
Make sure that you have all your favourite movies and series at home for the days when bad weather keeps you from going out. Since we are all aware of the infamy that is Kenya Power, I suggest that you also keep a stack of books, magazines, board games, and other fun things to employ when there is no power. In this way, you will not be one of those types who goes, Noooooo! , when electricity goes o.
3.Stock Up on Entertainment
Keep warm, when its cold, keep cool when its hot
You may be tempted to go out and buy 10 sweaters because it is freezing at night.
Stemming from the previous point, always keep your phones, iPods, cameras, lamps, laptops, and any other electrical device that is needed charged. If you work on the computer a lot, always save your work and back up from time to time. Do not rely on the auto save feature. Keep all the things you know you will need at home candles and the like. Prepare for every
Of course not all wars are solved by violence. In fact, violence is often a last, desperate resort by bloodthirsty men. As I have already said, rain causes Kenyans to momentarily lose their senses. There is always so much rushing around when the pouring begins. A lot of shoving, more often than not fare hikes, road accidents, and many other happenings. The thing we all have to understand is that rain is not some kind
of nuclear bomb. It is just water. Therefore, instead of running in blind haste to get away from it, stand for a minute. Take it in. Relish the beauty that rain brings. After that, think sensibly and nd a course of action. This will help you avoid such miscalculations as going to a bus stage that is sure to be crowded, or worse, going to a stage where matatus are likely to be scarce. Whatever you do, make sure that this rainy season does not sour your day. That would be the worst thing you can allow. Take it all in and cosy up with the rain. Trust me, you will not regret it.

There is really no right time to have a relationship and sex, but it is always better to wait until you have completed your education and you have a job. Another thing you need to know, having a relationship and sex is not the same thing. You can have a relationship without sex, the same way you can have sex without a relationship it is certainly better to have the rst one, but I would advise you keep away from both for as long as you can, at least until you complete school. All the best. Dear Cindy, when I was in high school about four years ago, I liked a boy, but he would humiliate me, calling me fat. After school, I resolved to lose weight. I met the same boy in a night club recently and he could not stop looking at me, telling me how beautiful I am, and how he desires me. I still like him, but I cannot forget what happened four years ago. Please help. Martha If you have a relationship with this boy, both of you will be doing it for the wrong reasons. You will be doing it to prove something to him and yourself, while he will be doing it, not because he likes you as a person, but because he likes your body. Unless you do not mind this, please have nothing to do with him. You can be sure that this boy will not like you for who you are, but for how you look. Looks do not keep a person interested for long what keeps a man or a woman around, after the rst excitement of a relationship, is the mind. If you do not stimulate him mentally, you will be out as soon as he has his way with you. Remember, in his mind, he still has an image of you of four years ago. The thing to do would be to keep him as a friend, give him and yourself a chance to know each another. It might even surprise you that you do not like him that much. All the best.
Dear Cindy, I am 17, still in school, still a virgin, and with no boyfriend yet. My friends think I am weird, but my parents have been telling me there will be the right time for all that. What really is the best age to have a boyfriend and sex? Rosie First things rst, congratulations for listening to your parents over your friends. I can tell from the email that you feel as if you are dierent, and not in a nice way. Please, do not succumb to peer pressure. I can assure you that, right now, your friends admire you for the values you have held. They are putting you under pressure, making you think that there is something wrong with you

When he rst came through with his low budget lming debut Paranormal Activity back in 2007, everyone was astounded at the newcomers success. The horror genre had once more been revived to its
former crowd-gathering glory and today, Paranormal Activity is hailed as the most protable movie ever made, going by its box oce sales revenue of $193 million against a budget of $15,000. The rst lm might have cost less to make than its successors, but it easily generated a cult following of movie goers for its future instalments.

Charlotte Riley As Karis Cynthia Nixon As Petranilla Rupert Evans As Godwin Epic movies are notorious for their generous supply of gory blood-stained scenes. World Without End prefers to cut to the chase by killing everyone by the noose. The series is set in medieval times when England was on bad terms with France. It was during King Edward IIIs reign and his mother, a Frenchwoman, was set on taking over France and uniting its lands with England. There are intense power games at play, enough to rival its epic counterpart Game of Thrones. The pace at which dramatic events escalate in each episode is even more riveting. The show does its best to depict how dark society was at that period. The Church was a haven of sexual deviants and evil hoarders and every misjudgment made by the lords of the land would be blamed on God. The barbaric nature of the justice system back then would make our present-day system look like a walk into civil paradise. Every single crime was punishable by death, be it rape, treason, or witchcraft. Speaking of witchcraft, the world of medicine renounced any breakthroughs in surgery and vaccine discovery as the work of the devil. So if you invented the cure for a disease, your reward would be a public execution. The extremities of human oppression in this movie are simply incontestable.

If you dont have interest in world market dynamics and you want to be a manager, the modern corporate environment is not for you, warns Unilever Africa boss
BY LYDIAH WERE
lydiamwere@gmail.com o you want to become a manager? The question is no longer whether you are t to be one, but if you are savvy enough to manage emerging global challenges. The traditional manager tends to be more administrative than anything else. For the desired modern day managers, it is a dierent ball game that involves a daily battle with volatility and uncertainty in business, coupled with the complexity and ambiguity in the market place. That market place now spreads beyond borders, whether one likes it or not. This has spurred a trend that is giving rise to a new brave title in management: the global business leader. Hopefully, the training institutions have taking note and
acting. With the world interconnected through technology and increased trading ties, being a global manager is the vogue. Aspiring managers are being advised to wear the global cap to be relevant in todays business, or to start preparing for redundancy. Young people should embrace this change, advised the executive vice-president for Unilever Africa, Mr Frank Braeken in a recent talk. The future is not giving the answers that it oered our parents, he stressed. Mr Braeken was giving a talk on Leading in a Changing Environment to Kenyatta University students. His lecture, delivered last week, was pegged on todays shifting business environment, which has been summarised in four signposting words: volatile,
uncertain, complex and ambiguous. These are the realities that a global manager faces every day, and which need special skills to handle. What the industry needs right now are creative and innovative individuals who are trained to take up leadership in the global business arena, said Mr Braeken. He has himself worked in eight countries and four continents for global manufacturer of foods and personal care products, Unilever. In his informed view, therefore, youths need training in how to transform while moving in their careers and as they meet chal-

ast week, Jawabu, a supervisor at casual wear maker Manguo, discovered how workers in the packaging department would cleverly stash extra clothes in the deliveries and selling them aside to make quick money. Jawabu had called his boss soon after cornering Kauzy, the head of packing, with the discovery. Early this week, he invited Kauzy back to his oce and said: I have decided that it is best to leave things as they are for now. The consignment is still where you left it at the packing bay. This caught Kauzy by surprise. He quickly got to his feet and shook Jawabus hand vigorously, saying, Thanks sir. I have always suspected that behind that silence is a clever man. Let me talk to the others and ask them to include you on our list of beneciaries. Think nothing of it, replied Jawabu. Now that I am part of the group, do you care to tell me who is the genius behind all this and how we will be operating? Have a seat and explain. Eager to show Jawabu how crafty he was, Kauzy proceeded to give in detail how the scheme was hatched and the kind of wealth they had amassed. Long after Kauzy had left, Jawabu sat thinking about the conversation. He had recorded it on his cell-phone. As he listened to the replay, he realised that it was just the tip of the iceberg. He wondered just how deep the deception was. It was time to hold a meeting with Mrefu and nd out why he had resigned abruptly. Mrefu agreed to meet him in town. The meeting place was a dingy, dark room downtown. Mrefu began: I am the head of this cartel. I only resigned in order to concentrate on ensuring that the deliveries were made smoothly. He continued, laughing sarcastically in between sentences: We have been doing this for a long time. You know, the longer you stay in an organisation, the easier it is for management to make the false assumption that you are loyal. That is how I was made supervisor. You look like you could do with a few extra coins. If you choose to join us, we will make you richer than youve ever imagined. Feeling that he had gathered enough information, Jawabu got up and said: Mrefu, you are under arrest for stealing company property. I was employed by the management of Manguo as an undercover investigator to establish the reason for the sudden shrinking of prots. Everything you have said is on record. Mrefu could not believe his ears. He wished he could just disappear from sight. Jawabu went on: Stealing from your employer is theft by a servant and is punishable by law. You have broken the trust of your employers who placed you in a position of stewardship. There is no excuse for what you did. I joined Manguo as a technician because it gave me the chance to walk around the organisation and observe all of you unobtrusively. The only puzzle was the smooth ow of stolen goods from the organisation to the market, which is why I was made supervisor of the packaging plant.

I am soon releasing a book titled Things That My Mother Taught Me That Did Not Work. From the goodness of her heart, she taught me that slow and steady wins the race. However, as I encouraged myself in my slowness, I discovered that I was being overtaken and these fast people were indeed winning. So my philosophy changed. I learnt that fast, accurate and consistent won the race. Had I been bold enough to ask questions at an earlier age, I would have done better much earlier in life. The truth is that if you do not ask why this or why that, someone is bound to ask why you. Some people live on a let-it-be principle. What a limiting mind-set. That is a resignation to fate. Fate philosophy is the losers opium. People who are resigned to fate never achieve much in life. Why are you the way you are today? If you

Mr Frank Braeken
odoma was an ideal city to hide and plan a terror attack. Founded in 1907 by German colonialists who were building the railway, the city gradually got populated by diverse ethnic groups once it was turned into the governments administrative centre. With small Arab and Indian communities mingling with the larger indigenous Gogo, Rangi and Sandawe people, it was easy for Rajab Karume to blend in with the crowd. He wore a white long-sleeved shirt,
navy blue jeans and black boots. They matched with the semi-arid climate that Saturday afternoon. He felt hungry. In fact, he hadnt eaten well since his deportation from Kenya. The experience always knotted his heart in revulsion. He had to revenge. Lavender Gacheri and Kampuni Incorporated would pay dearly. Since kidnapping a British tourist in Lamu, Rajab learnt he had a dark, brutal side.

As a global leader you should have the ability to change and transform yourself and the organisation. This is very important.

COVER STORY
lizabeth Wanjirus face lights up when she describes her workplace. Its an airy, freshly painted building in Waithaka, outside Nairobi, which buzzes with the sound of women pedalling at their sewing machines as they piece together the lining for the latest Vivenne Westwood bag. Really, I really enjoy it she beams. When you come, you meet lots of friends. I am happy. Its enjoyable. The Waithaka workshop is part of Kenyas transformation into an ethical fashion hub and part of a growing debate over whether the growing global demand for ethically-made clothing can generate economic opportunities for ordinary Kenyans. Kenya is already familiar with textile manufacturing on an industrial scale. Estimates suggest that mass production of clothing for export has created 60,000 direct jobs and 200,000 indirect jobs in the country over the past decade. According to the last available statistics from 2007, clothing and textiles are Kenyas third most important export, bringing in more than Sh6 billion in revenue. But the industry has faced criticism for its poor work conditions as most large-scale clothing manufacturers are characterised by low pay, sexual harassment, poor compensation for overtime work, and weak labour rights. Italian fashion maverick Simone Cipriani wants to change all that. In 2008, with support from the United Nations and the World Trade Organisation, he founded the United Fashion initiative and chose Kenya as its launching pad. United Fashion is about real fashion produced in a responsible way, explains Cipriani. My way of being responsible is to involve people in a dignied way, to provide work and a way out of poverty. My intention was not simply to sell existing local products in the market, which is competitive and complex, - but to merge talents from the fashion world with skills and materials available locally. The result is a program that draws
on simple skills like sewing or tailoring, as well as traditional Kenyan crafts like beading, to provide Western designers with unique items and give locals well-paying jobs in safe work environments. Currently, the scheme employs about 1,000 Kenyans in marginalised communities around the country although the workforce can swell to around 7,000 when a large order is placed from abroad. The organisations clientele include high prole luxury designers such as Vivenne Westwood and Stella McCartney, who are in the market for artisanal, hand-crafted items rather than massproduced goods. That, according to United Fashions Product Development Adviser Jeremy Brown, carves out a niche for Kenya as a provider of quality items. While Kenya cannot yet compete with manufacturing behemoths like China, hand-crafted products can be sold at a mark up to Western consumers interested in ethically-made items. You can sell it at a premium; its a real luxury product because every single thing is made by hand. The fashion houses will try and sell that story, he says. And the luxury market, research shows, is less prone to the uctuations in the global economy. While Kenyas large scale textile industry suered from a sharp decrease in business as a result global economic downturn, US consulting rm Bain and Companys latest report on high-end goods nds that the luxury market is defying initial concerns over Eurozone turmoil and fears of a cool down in emerging markets. Sales
This made-inAfrica Vivenne Westwood bag can fetch Sh26,000 in the international fashion market.
We ask our trade partners in the industry to bring responsible, decent, well-paid work to Africa. We ask for numbers, not words. Simone Cipriani of the United Fashion initiative
are anticipated to exceed 200 billion (about Sh21 trillion) in 2012. At the height of global recession in 2009, United Fashion estimated the total value of its exports at $2 million (Sh160 million). Rajiv Arora, the executive director of the African Cotton & Textile Industries Federation, believes Kenyan manufacturers currently focus too heavily on mass production and are missing the opportunities presented by the international fashion market. Partnerships with the fashion sector, he argues, could lead to broader economic development in Kenya. I can say for the past few years that we have been working with the fashion industry I think (the cotton and textile industry) has been well-supported by those companies. They have been recognised as a key factor in developing markets says Arora. United Fashion touts its initiative as more than just money-makers. Work places standards are guided by the Fair Labour Association, and employees are educated about their labour rights and empowered to pursue their own business projects. What we try and show the communities is that there are other things you can do, explains Jeremy Brown, who is based in United Fashions Nairobi oce.
You can explore dierent designs and things, so hopefully they become more competitive. Because if everyone in the Masai market is selling exactly the same thing it doesnt really work. But if they try dierent things, theyve got a better chance. The organisations approach seems to be paying o. In a recent review of the project by the Fair Labour Association, more than 90 per cent of interviewees said they had learned new skills, made improvements to their homes, and increased their self-condence as a result of employment with United Fashion. Elizabeth Wanjiru in Waithaka is no exception. She now harbours ambitions to start her own tailoring business, and wants to pass on her new skills by teaching other women in her community how to sew. Her colleague, Pauline Aluoch, has already applied her training to a small side venture where she mends readymade clothes. She, too, appreciates the safe work environment fostered by United Fashion but says the casual nature of the work, which depends an irregular ow of international orders, is a nancial concern. Sometimes you work for two weeks, then you have to wait for another three months before you are called back. So it would be better if you were working regularly. Id like to work here if it was

regular, because the money we get here is good, says Aluoch. But, she adds, her average daily wage of about Sh600 would not be enough if she was a single mother like Wanjiru. The pay is enough because I have a husband and we supplement each others income. I dont depend on it. United Fashion says it pays from ve to 12 US dollars a day depending on skill level. But despite the best intentions of such initiatives, settling on a fair wage can be dicult according to Nairobibased fashion designer Ann McCreath of the KikoRomeo fame. A lot of what is being exported to the West is not what I consider to be properly paid for, she says. The rst question starts with what is fair? What is fair can be interpreted in dierent ways. Fair or not, there is certainly a huge discrepancy between the remuneration Kenyans receive for their work and the price their products are sold for abroad. A Vivenne Westwood canvas bag made in Kenya through United Fashion, for example, sells for the equivalent of Sh32,000 in the United Kingdom. Not all ethical fashion products are sold at such a premium indeed, many are marketed to young, socially conscious consumers with relatively meagre incomes. And United Fashion insists that its mandate is not just to provide employment in the developing world. It also wants to change the developed worlds attitude towards consumption. I think what needs to be done is education of consumers, says Chloe Muktai, who works for United Fashions Corporate Social Responsibility and Communications Department. People dont understand that when they buy a t-shirt that costs a dollar something is wrong. Something is just not possible. But while a growing sense of social responsibility on the fashion scene means job prospects for women like Wanjiru and Aluoch, Kenyas fashion designers say they deserve some opportunities of their own. I would love to expand overseas but right now its kind of limited to friends who live and work there says Ogake Mochache, who works on a sustainable fashion project at the University of Nairobi and whose clothing line, Ogake, was launched in Kenya last year.
We dont really have the capacity to go international. So much more could be done to help people like me to get out there. That kind of support must be part of the ethical fashion industrys mission, agrees McCreath, who moved to Kenya 20 years ago and runs an ethical fashion label called KikoRomeo. Youre going right down to the grassroots and youre zooming [products] into the luxury market internationally. And youve missed out everybody else in the chain, she says. Im just feeling like its because we havent managed to get our brands there that theres a lack of money in the whole industry here. And then it becomes like youre still waiting for the foreigner but we shouldnt have this mentality of having to be rescued. Ogake Mochaches work might not yet be recognised by the fashion world, but Kenyas cultural heritage certainly is prompting concerns that it will be appropriated by Western designers for commercial gain. In 2008, for example, a British company attempted to trademark the kikoy, which would have given the rm the exclusive right to use the term as a marketing tool.

Ann McCreath of Nairobis KikoRomeo fashion house: We shouldnt have this mentality of having to be rescued. Top: Modelling Louis Vuitton Maasaiinspired designs. Right: Piecing together linings for Vivenne Westwood bags in Waithaka, Nairobi.
ecently, high end fashion label Louis Vuitton caused controversy when it sent a Masai-inspired collection down the runway, which included scarves imitating the iconic Masai shuka. The sad thing is that we dont benet from this, Kenyan designer Ogake Mochache protests. The guys who are working hard are not benetting from this. Ideally that should be part of ethical fashion. We need to be a bit more vigilant; if they come and take ideas, give credit to where its due. Certainly when you see very big brand names basically taking something that could have come from a catwalk anywhere in Africa to put it internationally without any kind of support to the fashion industry in Africa, it is very annoying, agrees McCreath. The issue is not exclusive to Kenya. It is pervasive in the fashion industry. In the United States, Native Americans moved to protect their traditional crafts under law after it emerged that almost half of the billion-dollar annual trade in Native American products was being lost to counterfeit goods. Communities now have the ability to le law suits against companies that misappropriate their culture for marketing purposes. But for the Kenyan craftsmen who are leveraging their skills into employment, the risk of cultural appropriation might be a price worth paying. Im actually proud, its positive to me because Im having some goods sold on the international market, says John Ingosi, who used to work as a private tailor but joined the United Fashions hub in Nairobi last year after it proved more lucrative. United Fashion also points out that many designers are keen to pay tribute to the cultural traditions that inform their work. Every product created for Vivenne Westwood in Kenya, for example, has a label explaining the history and genesis of the item. The organisation also says it is working to promote African designers on the international stage. The international fashion scene should open up to the new talents of the African fashion scene, says United Fashions founder Simone Cipriani. There are many gifted designers in this continent and some who are starting to be recognised. Conicting views aside, there is one point of agreement amongst entrepreneurs in the ethical fashion sector: the industry has a long way to go and many issues to address if it is to succeed. A lot remains to be done. A lot. A lot, acknowledges Ciprian.We ask our trade partners in the industry to bring responsible, decent, well paid work to Africa. We ask for numbers, not words.

Even though the stars are encouraging you to push the boat out, there is no reason for you to be tempted into jumping overboard.

TAURUS | APR 21 - MAY 20 You may be very well be attracted to intellectual pastimes rather than physical ones. Studying, gathering information, mental games such as chess, will hold a strong appeal.

) Each symbol , , , should appear only once within each 2x2 square
She was to add yet another feather to her cap when she was voted the Sportswoman of the Year during the Eve Woman of the Year Awards ceremony organised by Eve Magazine. Unlike the prophets of old, who were only respected outside their hometowns, Catherine had joined the ranks of national heroes who were recognised at home. Today, if you visit the Athletics Kenya Museum in Nairobi, you will nd many pictures of top runners who have made Kenya proud since Kipchoge Keinos Olympic gold medal during the 1968 Mexico games. But there are only two life-size bronze sculp-
tures of outstanding athletes. One is of Keino himself. The other is a statue of Catherine Nyambura Ndereba. There is also a life size cut-out picture of Paul Tergat, who was for many years the world cross country champion and marathon world record holder. Catherine also donated to the museum a red pair of shoes that she had used to win the 3,000 metres races in her early years and a white pair of canvas shoes which she used to win the Boston Marathon in later years. The shoes are size threeand-a-half. They are proof that a person can become a world champion no matter the size of her feet.
