Tension in Eldoret over Leaflets Warning 'Outsiders' to Leave

Tension in Eldoret over Leaflets Warning 'Outsiders' to Leave

Police in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County have launched investigations after hate leaflets were spread in the area.

The leaflets written in Swahili warned ‘outsiders’ from other ethnic communities to vacate their land immediately.

The fliers were dropped in Kipkaren, Kapseret sub-county on Sunday morning, creating tension among locals.

“Kipkaren iko na wenyewe,” part of the text reads. 

Speaking during a media briefing, Uasin Gishu police commander Ayub Githonga said officers commenced a probe to establish the source of the leaflets and bring the perpetrators to book.

He assured that security has been beefed up in the area and urged residents to remain calm as investigations continue.

Local elders led by the Agikuyu Elders Association chairperson Kamunu Wa Kabari called for a thorough probe into the leaflets, warning that they are likely to antagonize the co-existence of communities living in the region.

It is Ruto sending his usual divisive messages to other tribes (madoadoa) on behalf of the his kale tribe! Is anyone surprised by the leaflets scattered in Sudi’s home town of kapseret!? It is 2007/8 all over gain with Kalejin preparing the grounds for 2022 if Ruto is taken to The Hague to answer charges of crimes against humanity!

Common sense will tell you that Sudi,Ruto or anyone hustle nation will not do this. The people live peacefully and they all support hustler nation.
The people doing it are dci, lower cadre kieleweke and Gideon Moi. Uhuru and Raila are not part of this nonsense.

Suspect number 1 is the DCI. One would think that this guy has some brains. It’s only the other day that he was got red handed trying to start the same clashes!
Number 2 is kieleweke team. They are looking to field a candidate in Nairobi. And also afraid they will loose in the coming general elections. They are the same people who lazed food products with poison and have it delivered to their own people with the hope that Ruto could be blamed for it. Seriously how low can these politicians go?
Number 3 suspect is Mr. Gideon Moi. He was in the area yesterday trying unsuccessfully to “ get a wash” He left a bitter man.
Common sense will tell that Mr, Ruto is trying hard to make political inroads, make more peace with people coexistence.

Senseless 80+ year old Maina Kamanda was paid by muchawi Raila to supply POISONOUS relief food to his(Kamanda's) fellow Gikuyu tribesmen in Gikambura and Rwithigiti areas.But some residents who happened to know the supply vehicles belonged to Maina became suspicious after Maina employees(who they knew) informed them that the food came from Ruto camp.They managed to escape before the villagers decided how to deal with them.It seems Uhuru had okeyed Raila to poison his Gikuyu tribesmen and blame Ruto for it.Or what can you conclude now that Haji,Mutyambai/Kinoti went silent on this straight-forward case?

Politicians at it again. No agenda on how to improve lives of Kenyans but rather use them as a means to their selfish end.
For once I doubt it is coming from Tangatanga. This stinks of BBI manenos. Rather Shameful!!

Maneno ya kujenga utu: Words of wisdom that can improve humanity:

Take risks in your life. If you win, you can lead; if you lose, you can guide.
People are not what they say but what they do; so, judge them not from their words but from their actions.
When someone hurts you, do not feel bad because it is a law of nature that the tree that bears the sweetest fruits gets maximum number of stones.
Take whatever you can from your life because when life starts taking from you, it takes even your last breath.
In this world, people will always throw stones on the path of your success. It depends on what you make from them - a wall or a bridge.
Challenges make life interesting; overcoming them make life meaningful. _
There is no joy in victory without running the risk of defeat.
A path without obstacles leads nowhere.
Past is a nice place to visit but certainly not a good place to stay.
You cannot have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time.
If what you did yesterday still looks big to you, then you have not done much today.
If you do not build your dreams, someone else will hire you to build theirs.
If you do not climb the mountain; you cannot view the plain.
Do not leave it idle - use your brain.
You are not paid for having brain, you are only rewarded for using it intelligently.
It is not what you do not have that limits you; it is what you have but do not know how to use.
What you fail to learn might teach you a lesson.
The difference between a corrupt person and an honest person is: The corrupt person has a price while the honest person has a value.

If you succeed in cheating someone, do not think that the person is a fool. Realize that the person trusted you much more than you deserved.
Honesty is an expensive gift; do not expect it from cheap people

They are trying to get BBI support by all means. Hustlers will not be doing this while everything seems to be good besides they want 2022 votes.

After the great conjunction- December 20 through 26, 2020 the world events are changing. Whatever plan politicians have in mind " Divide and Rule" will work against them.
We are at a new era, and God's children are being released from slavery. Old tricks will not work this time.
It's time for Revelation and Restoration!!!
