The 48 self made Billionaires in Kenya should emulate chaps like Mr. Charles Feeney, Billy Gates, Buffet etc and the anonymous Christmas donors who have recently bloomed up volunteering to pay off lay off items for needy families throughout America. These guys should at least learn to be compassionate and caring by sharing some of their looted wealthy with Kenya’s needy families on such internationally recognized holiday season. Most of the billionaires in the world try to help the poor who can’t afford even a gram of sucrose around this time of the year but look at those we have in Kenya. Who do they help or share their wealth with? They need to change their attitudes and help those who can’t help themselves and this is the only way they can receive salvation when the Holly son of Man comes down to anoint the heaven bound holly ones. Millions of Kenyans are dying of starvation and hunger of which the government’s PRO Dr. Mutua has vehemently denied on national and Int’l news medias just to cover their shame to foreign donors. They don’t want to the quizzed about the funds they received in terms of donations to help the poor Kenyan people. Since the poor families have noway of accessing their donated funds, why can’t these billionaires share some of their looted funds and help out the poor people on Christmas time? Some of them like Momoima R. Onyonka can dare loot CDF funds to buy sugar from Mumias of which I haven’t heard whether he has donated even 1Kg to any family in his constituency for Christmas. This is very, very unfair and abnormal. People like this should consider themselves lucky to be engaging in such shoddy businesses in Kenya. If they were in the western hemisphere, they could be languishing in the joints for years. Case in point, look at what happened to the former Illinois state governor. Gov Rod Blagojevich is doing 14 years behind bars for corruption. He was found guilty for trying to sell Pres Obama’s former senate seat in Illinois state.
The most annoying thing they have done is to hire a novice chap to cover their knuckle heads at the KACC. This is a very stupid Christmas they have given Kenyan poor multitudes. They cannot expect someone who scored an F in his last job ratings to defend the poor Kenyans against the economical crimes committed by the elites and the so called 48 billionaires. The MPs had put up a very spirited campaign and it all looked like they were working for the poor to block Matemu and Co. from getting through the front gate of Integrity Hse and look what happened when they voted? Hon Midiwo was wrong to petition against Prof Philip Kiluki from chairing the debate and see what we got now? Even the deputy speaker who is supposed to be impartial supported the motion to seal the deal. They kept wasting our variable time lecturing us about love affairs in the chamber instead of doing what we sent them there to do by hiring credible and hard working Kenyans. Parliament was turned into an English grammar lecture hall with every MP trying to prove that s/he knew the definition of the word PASSION. The only thing we have left to make things right is a “NATIONAL REVOLUTION”, because these knuckle heads don’t seem to get it regardless how much we cry or scream with our pain or dissatisfaction. These folks knew the public mood because they had read public reactions from our local dailies and yet they ignored it and went a head to confirm Matemu and Co for the jobs they aren’t well qualified for. This is disrespecting their employer’s concerns and all those who voted for them should be let go come 2012.
To my poor citizens, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!!
TOI
PS: The war against corruption continues with or without Matemu.

The New York Times has unmasked 80-year-old Cornell alum Charles F. Feeney as the anonymous donor who gave the school a $350 million donation to construct a new technology-based satellite campus on Roosevelt Island in New York City. Officials at The Atlantic Philanthropies, the foundation started by Feeney in 1982, confirmed to the paper last night that he was the one who made the gift for the project, which is expected to generate an extra $1.4 billion in tax revenue for the city, plus 20,000 construction jobs and as many as 30,000 new jobs once the facility is up and running. …
