Facts why TNA/URP is winning

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 05:00:00 GMT

?/B?This is updated voter registration by iebc
R. Valley: 3?373?853
central: 2?190?477
eastern: 2?092?883
nyanza: 1?954?756
nairobi: 1?778?903
western: 1?434?987
coast: 1?164?083
north east:347?457
?b?total: 14?337?399 now i understand why the cord leadership is asking for more time for registration. They have looked at the numbers and they are panicking. The numbers do not simply add up on their favor. Tna/urp alliance has the numbers to win in first round. There is no way under the sun politically? arithmetically or otherwise the figures can be changed or cooked in their favor. If you doubt take a calculator..... 1.donate all western and nyanza votes to odm which is an impossibility since we have kisii ? kikuyus? and kalenjins living in nyanza and western. 2. donate half of nairobi? eastern and north eastern and three quarters of coast to odm which is still too generous because nairobi is tna zone that's why odm wants to directly nominate bishop wanjiru to split the kikuyu votes. Coast is also turning out to be a jubilee zone they don't want to be left out in government. But for the purpose of this we shall not include mombasa? lamu? taita taveta and kilifi which are highly cosmopolitant in favor of jubilee.. We have not also factored ngilu's contribution and the fact that tna/urp are going to get substantial eastern votes. 3.donate about 400k votes to odm from rift valley though as ruto said the achicha goons are not more than thirty in rift valley. If tinga gets half a million votes in rift valley? i will buy free lunch to ten people who are willing to bet. Franklin bett did not quite the race for fun. The ground is highly hostile to anything odm. He avoided writing his own political obituary. Rift valley is highly a urp zone with towns being tna like nakuru? naivasha etc 4. donate about 90k votes to odm from central? last time tinga got a paltry 34k. If the figure doubles i will be shocked! 5. add the remaining votes not donated 2.97m rift valley +2.1m central +0 votes nyanza+ 1m eastern+ 889k nairobi+ 0 votes western + 300k votes coast+173k north eastern=7.5million votes for tna/ urp which is about 52%. Cord is running desperate they are using the courts to try and block uhuruto from running via the civil society. I believe the sovereign power of the people of kenya vests with the people themselves.

True facts about raila odinga education background: -

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 05:00:00 GMT

True facts about raila education:
- He never graduated from maranda due to poor grades. He still holds the record of repeating several classes there? becoming the oldest student before finally quitting.
- He was the first african to study abroad without scholarship at a time when even his own father was securing scholarships for intelligent africans e.g. Dr. Munyua waiyaki? dr. Odongo omamo? etc. Raila's poor grades didn't qualify him for scholarships.
- He does not have a real degree e.g masters or bachelors. Again? wamalwa challenged him on this but he couldn't provide his certificates as evidence of his successfull education.
- At the uon? he is rumoured to have been an assistant lecturer (nobody knows how he got it without a degree) who didn't teach students. His movement was restricted to the labs.
- Raila used to promote rumors that he studied nuclear engineering. Then he started saying that it was mechanical when cornered to explain how he started the east african spectra...
- No wonder orange house has never released his certificates online to quell the many rumours on his education? even after questions arose in the wake of the expose from miguna miguna book on his education background.
N/b: even obama released his birth certificate online when questions arose about his country of birth! there you have it... Very soon the political conman will be exposed for what he realy is... By the iebc stringent conditions on education for presidencial candidates.

Jubilee to spend sh10 billion in campaign

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 05:00:00 GMT

?le*****************"?The jubilee coalition will spend an estimated sh10 billion in campaigns aimed at propelling deputy prime minister uhuru kenyatta's presidential bid. Last week? uhuru's tna acquired 10 branded four-wheel-drive vehicles at an estimated cost of sh30 million. The vehicles painted red with uhuru's name on the side are to be used to transport tna staff during rallies and roadshows. Late last year? uhuru's running mate william ruto of urp acquired five four-wheel-drive vehicles and bought a chopper. The two jubilee leaders now have four choppers at their disposal ??? two of which they own and the other two hired by the uhuru campaign on an as needed basis. Research shows that a helicopter costs between sh500 million and sh1 billion depending on manufacturer? size and age. Currently? chopper service providers are charging between sh150?000 and sh200?000 for every hour spent airborne.jubilee insiders? and especially those from uhuru's side? estimate that the largest portion of his campaign budget will be spent on rallies and publicity. This month alone? the jubilee campaign is set to spend almost sh300 million on three events in nairobi. They are planning a launch of the coalition this saturday at kasarani; a presidential campaign launch; and a manifesto launch. When the urp-tna pact was unveiled at afraha? nakuru last month? insiders revealed they had prepared a budget of sh25 million but it shot up to sh30 million. During the recent delegates conference to endorse uhuru? the coalition spent more than sh50 million? a large portion being delegates' fees. Some have now revealed to the star that at least sh3 billion has been set aside to cover political rallies and meet-the-people tours for their candidates. Strategists within the coalition yesterday said uhuru and ruto will this week start daily house-to-house tours and town hall meetings to sell their agenda to the voters. Mid this month? the jubilee team is also planning to kick off a series of media campaigns on radio? tv and newspapers to explain their policies. These campaigns will also be complimented by 100 billboards at entry and exit points of all major towns. It is estimated that the tv adverts to be run on three stations? on average three times a day? will cost at least sh15 million. A 30 second spot on tv costs between sh40?000 and sh45?000. The billboards will cost an estimated sh10 million as service providers are currently charging an average of sh100?000 per billboard per month. Other than their individual party and campaign secretariats? uhuru and ruto are putting together a joint secretariat to be unveiled this week. The secretariat? whose first task will be to harmonise the urp and tna and their affiliates' manifestos? will be housed at the offices that were used by pnu? which has since joined up with tna. The different campaign secretariats have been spending tens of millions of shillings a month for operations and recurrent expenditure including salaries. A large number of their expenditure has also been for facilitation especially to supporters mobilised to attend rallies and other meetings. This year's election is expected to be the most expensive especially for the leading presidential contenders and their parties. The constitution requires that a presidential nominee collects 2?000 signatures from 24 counties. On the actual election day? a presidential candidate may incur up to sh100 million to cover fees and logistics for agents to ensure that all the 40?000 polling centres are covered. In the 2007 elections? president kibaki???s pnu is reported to have spent sh390 million on party agents. A survey by the coalition for accountable political financing? a nairobi-based think tank? estimated that the leading presidential candidates in the 2007 poll? president kibaki (pnu) and prime minister raila odinga (odm) spent close to sh6 billion. Vice-president kalonzo musyoka and his wiper party (then odm-k)? who came in third in the race? spent sh157 million. And this is money that? according to the study? was traceable. The campaign finance bill? which intends to bridge the funding gap among political parties? curb corruption? limit the influence of special interests? limit the impact of money on the outcome of elections and force parties to be accountable to members? has stalled in parliament since it was published in november. The elections act has banned candidates from raising money from foreigners and imposed a maximum limit of sh5 million that a single donor can contribute. - the star? nairobi ?/color??/left?

Voter register scrutiny will unearth a can of worms

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 05:00:00 GMT

Expect big surprises when they start scrutinising the voter register on Tuesday. The Central province registered voter numbers simply don't add up; something is amiss. Even with elevated voter enthusiasm? those numbers are not realistic. For Nairobi? it is understandable because it is the capital city? and many people from western Kenya decided to register close to their work place; same with Mombasa and other major urban areas. But Central Province? Huh! Let me just wait for Tuesday? this is Kenya.
I suspect massive importation of "foreign" voters into these areas. Something is greatly amiss.
