michael, will live

it is the most traumatising moment when our beloved king of pop is almost laid to rest. he filled music in the capacity that not only did it earn him respect but changed the world. He is a great icon to the lives of many, especially his fans like me, so lets us pray that his children may live to satisfy the glory of their father's legacy. farewell to micheal, he was a great person.

does kenya have leaders!!

Humanitarian actors observed World Environment Day on 5 June by highlighting the humanitarian impact of climate change on already vulnerable populations in Kenya, and noting emerging non traditional beneficiary groups. Immediate impacts of climate change observed are poor crop production and increased food insecurity, pastoralist drop-outs, water scarcity, social conflicts caused by struggle for resources, increased natural disasters like floods & drought, migration. Some challenges noted in addressing some of the issues include lack of legislative policies to address climate change, poor funding, short term interventions that fail to link humanitarian operations to long term development initiatives.
The Government of Kenya and the African Development Bank concluded an agreement for a grant worth 1.5 billion KSH to help addressing disaster related issue as a consequence of the post election violence. The resources will be used to construct houses.
The question is, when will our leaders stop just saying and instead act, people are suffering out here!!
