ELECTRICITY | Kenyans seeking to be on the national grid will pay Sh75,000 for a meter as subsidy is removed
Consumers to pay more for power connection

BY ZEDDY SAMBU
zsambu@ke.nationmedia.com he Energy ministry has ruled out subsidies for new power connections that it had earlier promised and will instead ask consumers to apply for loans to cover the promised funding. Energy Cabinet Secretary Davis Chirchir yesterday said the option of subsidies was no longer sustainable. The African Development Bank and local banks have agreed to support new connections over a long time and in a more sustainable manner, he said. Other nanciers contributing to the Sh3.3 billion fund to be loaned to consumers include Equity and Jamii Bora banks. The partnership is expected to bridge the gap between the old connection rate of Sh35,000 for a single meter and Sh45,000 for double meters to the Sh75,000 preferred by Kenya Power. The loans will be partly recovered through the power bills each month, Mr Chirchir said. Last July, Kenya Power raised the connection fees for single phase meters to Sh75,000 but a Cabinet decision directed the company to restore the old connection fees of Sh35,000 to make power connection aordable to more potential customers. The National Treasury then gave Kenya Power Sh2.7 billion as a temporary cushion to cover the next three months on the understanding that the remaining six months of the current nancial year would be covered by a tari adjustment of Sh1.10 per kilowatt hour. The new tari

took eect in December. A study to determine how much Kenya Power should charge for new connections is yet to be concluded. The study commissioned by the Energy Regulatory Commission with funding from the French Development Agency has since been taken over by the ministry but the ndings are yet to be made public. The funding seeks to triple the current annual connection rate to one million new customers annually over a ve-year period. Clusters of 50 customers will be pooled for connection with areas lying north of Nairobi targeted among the rst beneciaries. Kenya Power MD Ben Chumo said the firm sought external funding after the government stopped subsidising the cost of new installations. We are creating an opportunity for customers to access soft loans. The government has said it will look for soft loans through bilateral donor support, which will then on-lend to us, he said yesterday. Government subsidies are not sustainable and is why government has opted to look for the funds through bilateral support. THE NUMBERS
Since December 1, Kenya Power has been charging Sh15.51 per unit of electricity as a base tari. Domestic power users pay Sh3.93 for the rst 50 units of electricity consumed or nearly double the previous rate of two shillings. For those consuming between 50 and 1,500 units, the cost per unit went up by Sh2.20 to Sh10.30, while those consuming higher amounts pay Sh20.50 per kilowatt hour (Kwh) up from Sh18.57. Kenya Power has been subsidising connectivity using its own resources to plug the gap between the actual cost of new connection and the cost set in 2004. This is at the expense of other critical projects such as improvement of quality of power and reduction of blackouts, said Mr Chirchir in an interview with the Nation. He spoke on the sidelines of a meeting which brought together ministry ocials, industry and county executives to chart the future of Kenyas oil exploration sector. International investors are expected to develop a crude pipeline linking the Turkana oil elds and the port of Lamu ahead of possible commercial production in the 2016/17 nancial year.

J. O. MAKORI FOR: DEPUTY INSPECTOR GENERAL
Advocates are today expected to elect new ocials to head the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) in a battle that has been marked by unusually intense campaigns. The lawyers will elect 14 ocials including the chairperson. The LSK secretariat yesterday said 50 advocates have registered to contest for various positions. The 6,037 advocates will cast their ballot for the representative to the Judicial Service Commission (JSC), a post that has attracted four lawyers. The competition between city lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi and Prof Tom Ojienda, both seeking a mandate to sit in the powerful commission, has particularly been intense, with the two criss-crossing 25 LSK branches to campaign. Former LSK chairman Okongo Omogeni and lawyer Kaburu Ndegwa
are also in the JSC race. The election will be presided over by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission. Incumbent LSK chairman Eric Mutua, lawyers Ambrose Weda and Charles Kanjama are seeking their peers mandate to lead the vibrant body while Ms Faith Waigwa and Ms Lilian Omondi are competing for the vice-chairpersons seat. Mr Mutua said his agenda was the implementation of the Constitution which he said needed a vibrant and respected person who can hold all institutions to account. I will create an inspectorate to prosecute fake lawyers, revamp committees and facilitate broad participation of members, said Mr Weda. Mr Kanjama said he was seeking the leadership of the LSK to address legal and welfare issues aecting lawyers in the country. See editorial on Page 12

POCKET WOES | New charges are here to stay, says Kidero
Nairobi motorists protest new parking rates as law takes eect

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 have been the last resort. Raising fees by as much as 100 per cent is a bit crude, he said. Dr Kidero, he said, should rst improve the citys public transport system before raising the fees so that motorists can get value for money. He said most parking spaces lack security and vehicles are usually parked at the mercy of street boys, who steal parts. The charges took eect following the expiry of an injunction the courts had imposed on their implementation. The injunction was imposed after 26 matatu saccos lost a case stopping the rates. The Nairobi County Finance Act categorises parking spaces into two, with motorists in the Central Business District (CBD) including City Centre, Westlands, Ngara, Community, Industrial Area and Karen being required pay Sh300 up from Sh140 per day. Shoppers in areas categorised as outof-CBD including Buru Buru Shopping Centre, Pangani and Pumwani will be required to part with Sh200 up from Sh140 per day. Motorists seeking monthly parking tickets will have to fork out Sh5,000 up from Sh2,000. However, those who paid the old rates in February are exempted from the new charges until the end of the month. A spot check by the Nation indicated that most motorists were displeased with the new rates, arguing that they had been ambushed. I was so shocked when I was handed the ticket this morning and the rates had shot through the roof. I watch the news every day and this was not even reported, it was too abrupt and expensive, Mr Ogle Sheikh said. I only intend to pay today but from tomorrow, Ill leave the car at home and walk from Pangani or use public means. Ms Janet Wacira criticised the new charges, saying they would not improve the countys nancial base because their collection was still manual and prone to corruption. I think the system of collecting parking fees should at least be automated or leased to a private company if it is to remain watertight, she said Despite the criticism, Dr Kidero main-
Salaries and Remuneration Commission chairperson Sarah Serem
MPs barred from raising their pay

BY NATION CORRESPONDENT
MPs bid to set their own pay received a major blow yesterday after the High Court ruled that such powers were only vested on the salaries team. A three-judge bench said only the Salaries and Remuneration Commission had the power to set the remuneration of all State ocers, including members of Parliament. Judges Isaac Lenaola, Mumbi Ngugi and Weldon Korir ruled that the National Assembly exceeded its powers when it quashed the gazette notices issued by the salaries commission to set their salaries. The three judges also ruled that the National Assembly and Remuneration Act is unconstitutional. The ruling was for two cases one challenging the increment of MPs salaries led by activist Okiya Omtatah for the Uzalendo Institute for Leadership and Democracy, and a second led by the Law Society of Kenya. Temporary orders had been issued by Mr Justice David Majanja last year as demanded by the LSK to stop the Parliamentary Service Commission from paying the legislators salaries other than those set by the SRC. The salaries team set the monthly salary of an MP at Sh532,000, but the lawmakers complained that the amount was inadequate and pushed to have their pay raised to Sh850,000. The LSK had wanted a declaration that the salaries set by the SRC are the lawful remunerations of legislators. It argued that the PSC had no constitutional mandate to pay the new salaries, but to only enforce the gazette notices of salaries issued by the SRC. Mr Omtatah had argued that the MPs violated the Constitution and encroached on the mandate of the Judiciary when they revoked the notices issued by SRC and set new salaries for themselves. Following the suits, the chairman of the Institute of Certied Public Accountants of Kenya, Mr Patrick Mtange, cautioned that the current state of the economy could not support the MPs demands. The accountant expressed fear that the public debt would rise further should the government yield to the MPs demands for higher pay and allowances.

ICC | Prosecution blames government for failing to give it Presidents bank statements as defence says case should be terminated
Judges to rule on the fate of Uhurus case in three weeks

Defence asks court to consider implication of their ruling on the Jubilee administration
BY BERNARD NAMUNANE
@nobewe bnamunane@ke.nationmedia.com
AND DAVE OPIYO
@DaveOpiyo dopiyo@ke.nationmedia.com resident Uhuru Kenyattas lawyers yesterday asked the International Criminal Court to throw out the case against him as it emerged that the prosecutor is banking on the cooperation of the Kenyan Government to provide evidence that it requires to pursue the case. And after hearing submissions from both sides, Trial Chamber judges Kuniko Ozaki, Robert Fremr and Georey Henderson said they would rule on the future of the case in three weeks. During that period, prosecutor Fatou Bensouda will have the option of ling written submissions on whether to withdraw the charges or not or allowing the judges to determine the fate of the case. The judges will also consider a response from the defence and the legal representative of the victims. Mr Kenyattas lawyers had asked the judges to consider the political implications of their ruling on the Jubilee administration and free their client. Led by Mr Stephen Kay, the defence team said it was time for the court to
make tough decisions. Sometimes courts know tough decisions have to be taken, said Mr Kay during a status conference held yesterday to discuss the fate of charges for crimes against humanity facing Mr Kenyatta. They (tough court decisions) may disappoint some people but they have been taken before. When such things happen, it is better they are explained to the public because they cause diculties. The lawyer for the victims, Mr Fergal Gaynor, sparked the question when he said that there were attempts to deny justice to victims of the retaliatory attacks in Naivasha. The process of bringing justice to victims who were attacked rst is ongoing. What about the victims of retaliatory attacks? Termination of the charges would be a travesty of justice, he said. While the case against Mr Ruto is at the trial stage, Ms Bensouda last month admitted that her case against Mr Kenyatta had been weakened by the departure of key witnesses and what she said was frustration by Kenyan Government red-tape. She asked for the case to be adjourned for at least three months to give her time to conduct further investigations. She also asked the judges to declare that Kenya had failed to cooperate with the court. While prosecuting yesterday, Mr Benjamin Gumpert, revisited the refusal by the government to reveal President Kenyattas
BACKGROUND
Uhuru case has come long way

Mr Kenyatta is facing charges of crimes against humanity arising from the 2007/8 post-election violence during which 1,133 people were killed with 650,000 others displaced. Mr Kenyatta was on the PNU side of the Grand Coalition when he was taken to court alongside the then Head of Civil Service, Mr Francis Muthaura, and then Police Commissioner Hussein Ali. The cases against Mr Muthaura and Mr Ali were later thrown out. On the ODM side of the coalition, the then ICC prosecutor, Mr Louis Moreno-Ocampo, brought charges against Mr William Ruto now the Deputy President former minister Henry Kosgey and former radio journalist Joshua arap Sang. Like Mr Ali, the Pre-Trial Chamber freed Mr Kosgey from the charges but the cases against Mr Ruto and Mr Sang are ongoing.
nancial records which he said was the prosecutions last hope in the case. Mr Gumpert said the fact that they had been denied access to the crucial records had frustrated their prospects of carrying on with the case. He said the records would help them prove that Mr Kenyatta provided nance, either personally or through intermediaries, to the perpetrators of the violence. The records will thus show us whether large sums of money were moved from his account during the (violence) period. If there indeed were movements, this will support our claims, but if not, it will in a way prove his innocence, he said. Sadly, it has been two years since we rst asked for this material. It has not been forthcomingthis for us is very important evidenceall we want is full disclosure of Mr Kenyattas nancial records. In response, Mr Kay accused the prosecution of shifting the blame for its failure to access the evidence it needed to sustain the case. He said the government had for the last two year insisted that for the prosecution to get the nancial records, it should have done so through the trial chamber. It seems the government of Kenya has cooperated but you need to use an order from the court, he said as he submitted that the evidence they were looking for was readily available. He argued that claims that Sh2.8 billion was used to nance retaliatory attacks was not tenable since it could have aected the countrys nancial markets. I have considered evidence about money, that UK pounds 20 million cash was taken out of Kenya economy is readily available. If it is true, what would have happened to the money markets? he asked. He said the money evidence was a fabrication by Witness No 4 whose evidence was crucial during the conrmation of charges against Mr Kenyatta. The witness has since dropped out of the case. But Mr Gumpert countered that Witnesses No 152, 430 and 138 among others also alluded to the money in their statements.

The Senate committee appointed to handle the matter is this morning headed for a two-day retreat to consider a court order stopping the impeachment proceedings. The Commission on the Implementation of the Constitution and the East Africa Law Society yesterday said the Senate would be blatantly breaking the law if it proceeds to discuss the removal of the governor and his deputy, Ms Dorothy Nditi. The Senate committee chairman, Dr Boni Khalwale, said the retreat was convened to respond to very serious important issues.

Raising concerns
ANALYSIS | John Ngirachu
efore they approved the setting up of a committee to investigate the allegations against Embu governor Martin Wambora, the Senators seemed to have been reading from the same script. What they were about to embark on, they said, was a judicial process and the committee ought to ignore the politics, any canvassing and opinions about the matter. But Migori Senator Wilfred Machage appeared to have not been properly briefed on the collective thinking and he started with what came out sounding like a war cry. Ukiona simba amenyeshewa, usidhani ni paka (Dont assume that a lion that has been rained on is a cat), he began. The adage is commonly used by people warning their opponents not to underestimate their power because they appear to be down on their luck. Deputy Minority Leader Abdirahman Ali quickly cut him short because contrary to the Speakers instructions, he was going to discuss the impeachment instead of the formation of the committee. Dr Machage had by then made his point; the consideration of the impeachment was an opportune time to show the governors what the Sen-
Will Senators play supremacy game in impeachment case? B

ate can do. Often derided by their colleagues in the National Assembly as idle because of the low volume of work they have, the impeachment has given the Senate an opportunity to ex its muscle. The impeachment comes in the wake of ghting between the governors and senators. This was rst over the County Development Bill, which would put senators in charge of development in the counties. Governors were ercely opposed to this because, they said,

it would amount to undermining them by placing them at the periphery in the implementation of the pledges they made before the elections. Its going to be more of senators egos because they feel they have lost legislative authority to the National Assembly, so they turn to county governments, said Mr Ahmed Abdullahi, the Wajir governor, of the Bill. Several senators who contributed to the motion on Tuesday afternoon appeared to have these things in mind. This motion comes at a time when, governors have intentionally refused to accept summons by our committee, said Dr Machage The Senate will be sending a message that we take our responsibility seriously, that we will not shy (away) from playing our role where there is need for the law to be applied, said Majority Leader Kithure Kindiki (Tharaka Nithi). Prof Anyang Nyongo (Kisumu) said there would be a lesson for other governors in the task the Senate is undertaking, adding: Humility is lacking in some office holders at the county level and it is bringing issues between governors and MCAs and perhaps this process will bring some humility.

Over 2,000 Form One admissions put on hold

Nyeri County says students from the area were discriminated against in selection
BY ERIC MUTAI
@Mutai_eric enthiga@ke.nationmedia.com ore than 2,000 Form One students will not join high schools in Nyeri after a court stopped their admission yesterday. The Nyeri County Government said admissions discriminated against students from the area. Mr Justice James Wakiaga stopped the admission of 2,208 students in 10 secondary schools. Lawyer Wahome Gikonyo for the county government said that the Education ministry violated the guidelines for Form One selection Eligible students from the county were discriminated against and a staggering number of students from other counties admitted in Nyeri schools which is above the 40 per cent provided for in the guidelines,
Sh1.8bn girl health project launched

A Sh1.8 billion project that seeks to help girls stay healthy and avoid early marriages and unwanted pregnancies has been launched. The Adolescent Girls Initiative-Kenya targets at least 10,000 girls aged between 10 and 14 in northern Kenya and in urban slums. The project by Population Council is funded by the UK Department for International Development.
If the petitioner had issues with the integrity of Mr Waititu, he should have followed the right procedure. He cannot challenge the decision of the Cabinet Secretary to appoint Mr Waititu since she acted in accordance with the law and powers bestowed on her by the Water Act, said Mr Opondo. He noted that the petition was in any event sub judice since it was based on allegations of other criminal cases against Mr Waititu which are still pending in court. The petition was led by businessman Benson Riitho. Lady Justice Mumbi Ngugi extended the orders barring Mr Waititu from assuming oce until she delivers a ruling on February 28.

said Mr Gikonyo. He argued that 1,570 students from other regions were admitted to the county schools and only 320 students from Nyeri were admitted to schools outside the county. There cannot be any logic in having only 12 students from Nyeri Central district joining Nyeri High School and one from Mukurwei-ni joining South Tetu Girls, he said. Mr Gikonyo told the court the selection was not based on merit, adding that two students from other counties who scored 211 and 219 marks were admitted to the two high performing schools. Lawyer Alex Muthuri, for the Education ministry told the court that the admissions could be halted pending the inter parte hearing tomorrow.

INVESTIGATION | Quality of education low due to shortage of senior lecturers
Varsities hit by shortage of professors

Some of the new universities have more tutorial fellows and junior lecturers
BY SAMUEL SIRINGI
ssiringi@ke.nationmedia.com ewly established public universities are experiencing a severe shortage of professors and senior lecturers, according to a new report. Some of them are running without a single professor, raising questions on the quality of learning. According to data compiled by the universities, Cooperative University College in Nairobi and Kibabii in western Kenya are some of the institutions which were running without a single professor as per the 2012 study. The numbers may have changed since then. The Cooperative University College, a constituent college of Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, had only one senior lecturer while Kibabii had 10 senior lecturers by the time the data, captured under the Reconciliation of the Sh7.8 billion Disbursed by the Government for Implementation of the 2010-2013 CBA for Public
How C student got degree admission in three campuses

BY SAMWEL BORN MAINA
@bornmaina sborn@ke.nationmedia.com Mr Edward Kimori* sat for his Form Four exam at a school in Kisii and scored a mean of grade C- in 2011. Based on his score, investigations by the Nation yesterday unearthed a serious breach in university admissions through which D students can easily obtain undergraduate degree in four years or less. Armed with his certicate, this reporter and his team visited a number of universities, masquerading as his brother, to see whether he could secure an admission to pursue a degree course. Our rst stop was the Presbyterian University of East Africa. The secretary looked at his results slip carefully before concluding that the candidate was eligible for a pre-university course. He would take the course which has seven subjects at the institutions Kikuyu campus, the secretary said. The cost for the course would be Sh55,000 and she instructed the applicant to clear it before the three months elapse. To apply for the programme, Mr Kimori would have been required to pay a non-refundable fee of Sh1,000. On completion, he would join a one-year diploma course before proceeding to pursue a degree course for two years. In other words, the C student would graduate with a degree in three-and-half years unlike his direct-entry counterparts who take four years. At Kenya Methodist University the story was the same. The receptionists smiled at us after perusing Mr Kimoris papers. We were told that would ws l Ne nahe tio be admitted to a pre-university course immediately. The course would take three months and the fees would be Sh60,000. We were told if Mr Kimori worked hard and scored a Grade Point Average of 2.5 and above, he would be admitted to an undergraduate course of his choice. However, if he scored less than that, he would be admitted to a diploma course and then enrol for a degree course afterwards. Even with such a long route, we were told that Mr Kimori would be armed with a degree certicate after four years. Our next stop was at the United States International University (USIU). There, we were told Mr Kimori would be admitted only if he completes a pre-university course from a list of selected universities.
Universities and Constituent Colleges report published last month. Educationist Okwach Abagi said the gures were an indicator that the quality of learning in the universities was going down. If the universities have a lower number of professors and other senior lecturers with doctorate degrees, it means there are no competent numbers to supervise students enrolled in graduate programmes, he said adding: It also means there is little research going on in the universities since the doctorate holders are supposed to be engaged in research as well. Dr Abagi said universities were supposed to be staed with a small number of lecturers at the rank of assistant lecturers and tutorial fellows.
Moi University Chancellor Bethwel Ogot confers a PhD degree on a student in 2012. Many universities lack senior lecturers.
The situation in our universities is that there are more tutorial fellows and assistant lecturers than top sta, he said. This scenario affects even the more established universities. For example, although Kirinyaga University has two professors, it has 35 tutorial fellows and assistant lecturers. The small number of top scholars in the newly established universities is a great contrast to the older ones. With 325, the University of Nairobi has the highest number of professors. Of these, 116 of them are full professors, a number that is higher than those of all the new universities combined. The educationist said the shortage in highly qualified sta was bad for Kenyan universities since enrolment was going up. Kisii University, formerly a constituent college of Egerton University, has only six professors, two of them enjoying

Multimedia University College has three professors, one of them full, and four senior lecturers. Jomo Kenyatta has 88 professors, most of them associates. Egerton has 72 professors, 51 of them associates while 110 are senior lecturers. Moi University has 63 professors, 16 of them full. Some 87 of its lecturers are senior. Kenyatta has 80 professors and 143 senior lecturers. Rongo in southern Nyanza has only one full professor, and seven associate professors. Only seven of its teaching sta are senior lecturers. South Eastern Kenya University has a fairly high number of professors 24 eight of them full. Forty seven of its lecturers are senior.

At Mount Kenya University, Mr Kimori was required to take a one-year certificate course excluding Animal Health, which takes two years. On completion, he would be admitted to a diploma course for a year excluding clinical medicine, which takes three years. The crash programme at the institution, which has three semesters instead of two per year, means a student can complete a four-year course in a record two years.

LSK must pick wisely for the national interest

embers of the Law Society of Kenya go to the polls today. The LSK will either renew the mandate of the current leadership or bring in a new team and choose its new representative to the Judicial Service Commission (JSC). It is imperative, therefore, that the society not only puts the best at its helm, but also chooses a representative to the JSC who will relentlessly articulate issues of professional and public interest. Through its direct participation in the JSC, the LSK will be able to inuence the appointment of competent judges and magistrates. This years election has perhaps oered the best opportunity ever to members to scrutinise the credentials of those who seek to lead them. This is crucial as the society is expected to play a signicant role in the implementation of the Constitution. The LSK has, of course, had a glorious past, championing the rights of Kenyans at the height of single-party dictatorship. When almost all the voices of reason had been silenced, it was the LSK that doggedly articulated the public interest by bravely challenging dictatorship by speaking out and seeking legal redress. However, the LSK is even more signicant today, with the expertise of its members sorely needed. And it is precisely because of this that it is best suited to advance weighty national issues impartially. Unfortunately, this watchdog role has in the recent past been somewhat blunted, with the LSK failing to clearly advance the national interest. Members must seriously reect on and give the mandate tomorrow to a team that will be able to objectively advise amid the competing political interests. This is the only way for the LSK to regain the condence of the public as a truly national organisation.
THE PRICE OF PEACE | Charles Onyango-Obbo
New parking fees unfair

he city of Nairobi has eected a sti increase in parking fees for the central business district and adjacent zones. From Sh140 a day, motorists will now have to pay rather dearly Sh300. Our concern is that the administration of the capital city, like other county governments across the country, seems besotted with punitive rates, levies and taxes as a way of making money without oering commensurate services. In the rst instance, any measures to decongest the city should be implemented as part of an integrated trac master plan. It would be better to oer motorists the alternative of an ecient, regular, clean and organised mass transit system rather than simply pricing them out of town. The dangerous, dirty, and unkempt buses and matatus that pass for the citys public transport system are a shame and scandal for any modern metropolis. Those motorists who have no choice but to park in the city centre will still have to leave their cars in insecure parking lots controlled by criminal gangs. They will still be subjected to double-taxation in the form of extortion fees payable to self-appointed trac wardens and guards or risk having their vehicles vandalised. That cannot be a fair exchange.

irst, a man must be upfront. It is easy to write an article like this if you are not living in the Central African Republic (CAR), South Sudan, Cairo, eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), or northern Nigeria, to name just a few of the strife-torn or terror-besieged African locations. So, from a cosy corner oce in a Nairobi highrise one can aord to ask; all this killing and war in Africa, does any good ever come of it after the bodies have been buried and the survivors have learnt to bottle up the pain of their losses? In East Africa there is perhaps no better place to start than Uganda. From 1966 until 2006, when the rebellion by Joseph Konys abominable Lords Resistance Army ended in northern Uganda, the Pearl of Africa was anything but a pearl. It had seen low-scale or intense violent conict and acts of sabotage by disgruntled groups for nearly all of 40 years. So what happened? President Yoweri Museveni did manage to calm parts of Uganda by bringing security and economic improvement, but that did not completely pacify Uganda. Nor (though he did manage one of Africas most successful pioneering reconstruction
Surprisingly, some good does come of all this killing and war in Africa F
eorts) did he perform particularly wonderful works that left everyone contented and thus without a desire to ght. What happened is that by 2006 Uganda nally became exhausted by domestic war. Like a punch-drunk boxer, it spat out the mouth guard and gave up the ght. Though the Uganda military remains triggerhappy all around the Great Lakes region and the Horn of Africa, at home the story is dierent. It is doubtful that for a very long time to come again, there will be a signicant eruption of largescale violence in the country around political disputes. Years of armed conict, it seems, have extinguished the appetite for violence. Without a long war past, maybe that might not have happened. Kenyans had a taste of it in early 2008 with the postelection violence (PEV), and what it saw frightened many. Those who did not know what it means for a country to descend into such violence, learnt. So the PEV did not totally go to waste. There is a sense that, that is what is slowly happening in Somalia. After 20 years of conict, the number of Somali warlords declined sharply. In fact without Al-Shabaab, which draws its inspiration from the wider global grievance about how the Western powers have treated Muslim states, Somalia would be mostly peaceful today. So Somalia too is in the exhaustion zone. Which brings us to the Central African Republic (CAR), where recently we have seen the violence degenerating into a crazed Christian cutting esh from a burning Muslim and eating it in vengeance. The conict there now pits the anti-Balaka Christian militias and the former rebel group, Seleka, a largely Muslim group. Yet, for all the horrors in CAR, it is a better conict than the one in South Sudan, which degenerated into a ght to the death between the Dinkas (President Salva Kiirs people) and the Nuer (his opponent, former vicepresident Riek Machars people). Indeed, looking ahead, the CAR conict is preferable
The good here then is that in all these long wars of ours, hopefully in the end the combatants will be exhausted and embrace peace for generations.
even to Somalias clan-driven variety. Why is the conict in CAR better than the one in South Sudan? You can change religion or opt out and become an atheist or sit on the fence and be an agnostic. However, you cannot change your ethnicity or even opt out of it (though you can choose to have nothing to do with your people if you nd their behaviour embarrassing or disagreeable). Ethnicity is not negotiable. The good here then is that in all these long wars of ours, hopefully in the end the combatants will be exhausted and embrace peace for generations. Secondly, that slowly, if we cannot have modern non-sectarian parties, at least we shall contest around negotiable identities. The downside is that millions will have been killed. These casualties, you might say, are the price that Africa will have paid for peace. Like all prices, some are high, others are low. It can be hard to nd hope in the madness around us, but we cannot give up. And those of us, who are fortunate to escape the machetes and bullets and record these tragic stories for posterity must never forget to count our blessings. cobbo@ke.nationmedia.com and twitter:cobbo3

A 22-MINUTE DECISION | Nganga Mbugua
It is time to bring Turkana into the fold as one of Kenyas valued counties S
omething does not add up about Turkana, the region where newspapers report the discovery of more oil and deaths from hunger within weeks of each other. Despite its huge potential those who have travelled there say that the land is rich and the people would thrive if they could get a road and access to water (huge reservoirs were discovered last year) the region remains one of the most disadvantaged in the country. Even the discovery of oil and water are yet to entice top honchos in government to wake up and smell the coee. Yet, with just a little eort, this is a region whose potential to transform the fortunes of its people and the greater Kenya is so enormous it does not require rocket science, just political will. In the nal analysis, the only thing holding the region back is the lack of a road that would open it up for development. Those who have travelled to the heartland of Turkana say it takes them all of 12 hours to cover about 400 kilometres. And this before factoring in the restrictions on night travel. This distance is equivalent to that from Nairobi to Eldoret. It takes a stretch of the imagination to gure out how a journey that ideally should take less than ve hours can gobble all of 12. is it so dicult for modern man to get to his forebears original cave by road? Two, are the men, women, and children who are subjected to this torture that disguises itself as travel not citizens of a proud country that expects to be a middle-income economy in the next 20 years? Is it a wonder then that when the people of Turkana meet their compatriots from other regions they ask: How is Kenya? In that one greeting, which is more of a lament, is encapsulated the most damning indictment of independent Kenya. The people of Turkana feel that they do not belong. Even when death is visited on them by raiders or drought it is secondary news. Indeed, such news, as we say in the profession, does not sell newspapers. But this is a region that produces cement and sand, both of which, with better infrastructure, could signicantly reduce the cost of building and construction. And not just that; it could expand it because building materials would become more readily available, hence cheaper. This is a region with a game reserve but one can hardly get there without risking a dislocated neck bone because the roads are not worth the name. And besides onions, a musthave condiment in practically every Kenyan home, the region
Residents of Chokochok in Turkana Central wait for relief food.

What is worse, the journey is enough to cause migraine, backache, and spinal and other debilitating injuries. No, these are not caused by crashes or collisions but by the trauma that the human body is subjected to in the torturous journey that no sane man or woman would make given a choice. No wonder Turkana has the highest concentration of airstrips per capita. All the organisations that take the health and wellbeing of their sta seriously choose to y them in if the call of duty takes them to that part of the planet, which incidentally, is regarded as the cradle of mankind. No wonder it takes some patience to get a seat on a plane to Lodwar. Which raises two questions that one hopes someone in the Cabinet can answer. One, why
now has oil and water. But how will these resources benet the county and the country if there is no road? Do not mention railway just yet. Since the entire Cabinet stood in unity to show its support for the standard gauge railway, why dont the honourable Cabinet secretaries make their biggest statement of resolve after the railway and say, We are going to commit a few billion shillings to tarmac the stretch from Kitale to Lodwar, whether we get funding by looking East or by introducing a new levy or both, as the government has done with the standard gauge railway. Were that to happen, the cost of transporting goods and people to and from that general region would fall from the current Sh2,000 per person to less than a quarter of that. The menace of bandits preying on motorists who stop to replace runaway wheels will become legend and the number of local and foreign tourists visiting the region to gape at the animals, people, water, oil, and the cradle of mankind will, no doubt, increase. Just one choice a choice that can be made in 22 minutes by only 22 Kenyans sitting in the House on the hill one Thursday morning can have such farreaching consequences. jmbugua@ke.nationmedia.com

DEVELOPMENT | Kim Chan-Woo
n February 7, 1964, under the leadership of President Park Chung-hee of Korea and President Jomo Kenyatta of Kenya, a truly special relationship between the two countries developed. I say special because today, as the two countries commemorate 50 years of diplomatic ties, President Park Geun-hye of Korea and President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya, daughter and son respectively of the then presidents, are at the helm of leadership in the two countries. Currently, Kenya is working towards becoming an industrialised middle-income country, as outlined in her Vision 2030 development blueprint. One of the main challenges to the course of this journey is the high unemployment rate. One solution lies in the creation of a manufacturing base. Koreas willingness to share the lessons learnt from her manufacturing history with Kenya will lead to a win-win situation. Further, as a leading player in ICT, Korea has experiences to share with Kenya in the incorporation of technology to create employment opportunities. Korea believes that the enhancement of the quality of labour and the use of appropriate technology are important for socio-economic development. For this reason, Korea contributed to the Technology Development Centre in Athi River,
Creative economy is the way to progress O

Koreans believe that the way to solve problems is to creatively innovate their way out, hence their pursuit of a creative vision as the new way to drive the economy.
which has state-of-the-art equipment and modern facilities to oer technology training and transfer. Additionally, through the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), the government of Korea in collaboration with the National Industrial Training Authority (NITA) under Kenyas Ministry of Labour and Social Security starting this year will embark on the establishment of the NITA master plan for industrial training. During the recent World Economic Forums annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, President Park Geun-hye in her address indicated that economies that seek to tap into the creativity of the human mind will dene the future. President Park further said that Koreans believe that the only way to solve problems is to creatively innovate their way out, hence Koreas pursuit of a creative
vision as the new paradigm for driving the economy. President Park also stressed the importance of combining this creativity with entrepreneurship because whereas creativity begets innovation, entrepreneurship puts this innovation to action. According to the report, Doing Business 2013, by the World Bank and the International Finance Corporation, many countries that have improved in the overall ranking made eorts to improve their business-enabling climate. Kenya, therefore, needs to borrow a leaf from such countries to create a friendly environment for entrepreneurs as this is central to socio-economic development. It is this paradigm shift that Korea wants to share with Kenya as we celebrate the golden jubilee of our diplomatic relations. I believe that a creative economy oers the solution to unemployment, income disparities, and slow economic growth. I look forward to seeing products made in Kenya being exported all over the world. Today we have an opportunity to look back at the success of cooperation between our two countries and ahead to the realisation of this noble dream even as we aim kuenda pamoja tukisonga mbele (forge ahead together).

New varsity admission rules will ensure quality
I was perturbed by the article in yesterdays Daily Nation claiming that some private universities admitted students with D passes. This is worrying not only as far as private universities are concerned but also in the mushrooming constituent colleges and new public universities. One of the solutions to this problem would be to ensure all preuniversity programmes are left to the Kenya National Examinations Council through the various tertiary colleges. Universities should not be allowed to oer certicate and diploma programmes. That way, we will streamline qualication for students pursuing higher degrees. MESHACK NYAMBANE, Nakuru

TALKING POINT
Sh12bn to help elderly and the disabled timely

The launch of the Sh12 billion social welfare programme for the elderly and disabled is timely. At a time when most Kenyans are feeling the pinch of hard economic times, the funds, if used properly, will improve the lives of the disabled and the elderly who cannot fend for themselves. The State should clearly provide an outline on how the funds will be used to help curb any form of corruption which may hinder this programme from becoming a success. Reports of Kenyans sleeping on empty stomachs because of drought and poverty should be a thing of the past. ODHIAMBO HAROLD, Maseno University
Ignorance to blame for increase in cancer cases

Mrs Rachel Ruto, the Deputy Presidents wife, was spot on by urging Kenyans to go for early cancer detection tests. Statistics by Kenya Network of Cancer Organisation estimates that 28,000 new cases of cancer are reported each year, with more than 20,000 deaths per year. Lack of awareness, inadequate diagnostic facilities, high cost of treatment and high poverty levels are the main factors behind the rising cancer cases in Kenya. This calls the attention of the government which should create awareness of its citizens on how to stay away from cancer. We also need mechanisms to provide treatment facilities and nd ways of eradicating poverty. MICHAEL KAGECHU, Kisumu
he siege of Masjid Mussa mosque in Mombasa by security ocers last Sunday was terrifying. Boots, smoke and blood in a mosque speak volumes. While we cannot tell for sure what transpired between the law enforcers and the worshippers, we need to ask ourselves several questions regarding the war on terror. Who is the principal adviser of the State on matters of religion, leadership and terrorism in our republic? It is clear that whoever this person is, he or she is not doing a good job. Feeding the government with the wrong advice and giving the public incredible information on insecurity has grave consequences . The State must stop bragging about how powerful and merciless the security forces can deal with the situation. Security agencies must get that fact right and stop sporting with the truth. For instance, whenever any suspected terror attack occurs, what Kenyans hear is hardly believable. The safety of each and every citizen of the republic lies with the State. The recent trend where the government buries its negligence and says security rests with the citizens is really not right. There is no way the State can tell citizens your security is your responsibility. The primary role of the government is to ensure security of citizens. There are men and women paid to provide security for Kenyans.
Security agencies must change tack to win war against terror T

SHORT TAKES
REGIONAL HUB: Kenya is slowly turning into a continental hub due to the numerous positive considerations from the West, East and South. What with the prospect of hosting AU agency for diaspora cash, the Pan-African Universitys Institute for Basic Sciences, Technology and Innovation and the Inter-African Bureau for Animal Resource. While every country has its negative side of the story, Kenyans should focus on the positives as we brace for change. The standard gauge railway project, for instance, should be expeditiously completed. COLLINS KIPKORIR, Nairobi CONNING TEACHERS: Reports of fraudsters using stolen and forged teachers documents to secure loans are unfortunate. It is uncouth to reap where you have not sown. However, the Teachers Service Commission must shoulder the blame for allowing fraudsters to interfere with its payroll. TSC should make use of technology to weed out ghost members. The Kenya National Examinations Council, for instance, has stored passport size photographs in its computer database to stop malpractices such as impersonation. KIMTAI CHERONGIS, Trans Nzoia FUND ALL PARTIES: The Constitution clearly states that the top three political parties are to be funded based on their percentage of votes in the General Election. However, this policy is discriminatory since it locks out most political parties merely on the basis of being unpopular. With this selective funding, most of the parties will lose their competitive ability and thus will be locked out from contesting major seats such as the presidency. MPs should amend the law to ensure all parties are funded. FRANCIS ODHIAMBO, Maseno FOOD CRISIS: The drought in parts of the country is disturbing. According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation, millions of Kenyans are at risk of starvation due to the prolonged dry spell. Although the focus is mainly on Turkana and Baringo counties, there are hundreds of thousands of Kenyans in other parts of the country who are also facing a food crisis. Therefore, it behoves both the national and county governments to put in place strategic plans to ensure food security. The time to launch a new oensive against hunger and starvation is now for tomorrow might be too late. JOSEPH G. MUTHAMA, Thika
Parents of youths who were arrested inside Masjid Musa Mosque protest outside Mombasa Law Courts on Monday.
This is the reason why Kenyans fund the government through taxes and other levies. We dont pay taxes for the State to use the money to perpetuate injustices and insecurity. Terrorism as depicted by Western countries is not exclusive to certain groups or religions. Terrorism has been with us for decades and it is its nomenclature that changes. The war against terror is not about big re-power that makes the enemy to vanish. It will only end up radicalising some youths who
might feel they are being targeted. Its time the State changed tack on the war against terror. The government and its advisers should wake up and open up to the truth about terrorism and the war against terror. Kenya must not subscribe to the US ideology on terrorism and the war against terror because it will only make the world a fearful place to live. The rst step should be to implement our policy of being non-aligned. IBRAHIM CAREYS, via e-mail
Keep partisan interests out of the law society polls

Professional organisations such the Law Society of Kenya must be seen to rise above ethnic, political, and religious interests. This is because in a polarised society like ours, they remain the glue that binds us together. It is against this background that the coming LSK elections should meet the highest professional and ethical standards. The lawyers body has over the years been the most democratic and professional entity championing good governance and justice in Kenya. To try to reduce its polls to an ethnic and political party contest is absurd. Reports that party politics have inltrated the LSK elections are therefore worrying. Why are the learned friends allowing themselves to be used by selsh and narrow-minded political leaders? The crucial oversight role the legal body plays cannot be overemphasised. Frequent turf wars between various arms of the State points to the necessity to have a more robust and vigilant body to keep the country on track. Therefore, the legal minds cannot aord to fail the nation at this dening moment. With poll day fast approaching (today), Kenyans are hoping sanity will prevail in LSK. Money or other incentives should not carry the day. Let the lawyers do the country good by electing competent leaders to lead LSK and the Judicial Service Commission. BERNARD AMAYA, Nairobi

Comment on calls by bar owners that alcohol tests be suspended

CHARLES NZIOKA: A few sips of beer are enough to make the alcoblow test positive, which can land you in jail. The government should device other methods of curbing drink drinking. JASON ASSELSTINE: Police strategically position themselves outside bars to extort money from motorists. Alcoblow should be blown away. LINCOLN KINYUA: The government should nd other ways of handling drunkenness other than harassment. MICHAEL ORENDE: We have already witnessed success stories posted by the alcoblow tests. It should remain in force to tame disorder on our roads. RONALD JUMA: Drinking and driving should not be allowed. It doesnt matter whether you are arrested outside the bar or at the gate of your residence, you should not be drinking and driving. BONIFACE KWENA: Its the job of the government to protect its citizens and alcoblow is a tool to ensure Kenyans are safe.
Should small parties also get a share of public funds?

Minister ordered to name business rent tribunal team today

BY NATION REPORTER
The government has been given until today to name a chairperson and members of the business rent tribunal. Environment, Water and Natural Resources Cabinet Secretary Judi Wakungu should announce the names and publish them in the Kenya Gazette, High Court judge Mumbi Ngugi ordered. Justice Ngugi said it was worrying that the tribunal had been moribund for the last eight months. Those seeking the tribunals services have been disadvantaged for eight months because the Cabinet Secretary has not named its chairperson and members, the judge said. A State counsel representing the Cabinet Secretary, however, told Justice Ngugi that the appointments had been made and would be published in an ocial gazette notice tomorrow. But lawyer Ojwang Agina, representing Landlords and Tenants Association secretary-general Ephrahim Muringo, said there was no proof that the appointments had been done and that their names had been forwarded to the Government Printer for publication. There is no evidence by way of an adavit to the eect that a chairperson has been named by Ms Wakhungu and that the names have been sent for publication in the Kenya Gazette which should be out this Friday (tomorrow), said Mr Agina, He reminded the court that the Attorney-General had last week promised that the names would appear in the January 31 issue of the Kenya Gazette but nothing of the sort had happened.
Appear in gazette
No names were published in the gazette notice, as promised he told the court. In her short ruling, Justice Ngugi directed Ms Wakhungu to swear an affidavit by the close of business yesterday outlining what had been done. The judge directed the minister to make available a copy of the Kenya Gazette with the published appointments by February 10.

Thirsty residents block road to demand water from motorists
Turkana South residents stage protest to bring their plight to the attention of the nation
BY NATION TEAM
newsdesk@ke.nationmedia.com hirsty residents of Turkana South yesterday paralysed transport on Lodwar-Kitale highway demanding water from motorists. They were not violent, but their demonstration disrupted business for the better part of the morning. The region has borne the brunt of the drought ravaging various parts of the country. Police said the protesters, who blocked the road at Nakabosan market, wanted to bring their plight to the attention of the motorists and the country at large. After blocking the road, villagers asked motorists... to give them bottled water, area police chief Kipsang Changach told the Nation. One of the protesters said it was not fair that relief food was passing them on its way to Lodwar National Cereals and Produce Board depot. He claimed that it would take a long time before arrangements were made to have the relief distributed to them. The man asked the government to drill water at Lotikipi, where large quantities of underground water were discovered last year. The villagers dispersed after police intervened to restore order on the road. Turkana County is reeling under biting hunger and thirst after water sources dried up due to drought. A number of people have reportedly succumbed to the hunger while others are said to be feeding on dog meat. Livestock, their mainstay, is also at risk of death. Water, Irrigation and Agriculture County Executive Beatrice Askul yesterday said 95 per cent of water sources in the county had dried up since the dry spell set in in July last year.

Trailer with explosives rolls into a ditch

An explosives-laden trailer landed in a ditch on the KaratinaMarwa road in Nyeri yesterday. It was in a convoy hired by the British Army to take the explosives to Nanyuki. Residents ocked to the scene thinking it was a beer truck but they were kept at a safe distance by the General Service Unit men escorting the 15 trailers. The rest of the convoy stopped briey at Kiganjo and then proceeded to Laikipia. This was the second accident for the convoy from Mombasa.

However, she blamed locals for the current crisis, saying they had failed to take care of the boreholes drilled by the county government. Most of the water pumps have been vandalised and are out of use. Ms Askul agged o a tanker from Lodwar Water and Sanitation Company to provide water to the protesting villagers as a short term measure as the county leadership sought a lasting solution to the crisis. The protests came as Lodwar residents waited anxiously to benet from the water being drilled at Napuu aquifer. The boreholes will be launched today, according to Davis and Shirtli engineers working on the project. Meanwhile, hundreds of Turkana herdsmen have crossed into Uganda and Ethiopia in search of pasture and water, sparking fears of fresh clashes among pastoralists from the three countries. Turkana sub-county police boss Jonathan Ngala said the drought had forced pastoralists in Oropoi and Loima to migrate. Turkana leaders yesterday appealed for dialogue among the herding communities to avoid disputes over water and pasture. Clashes cannot be ruled out unless herders from the three countries agree on sharing pasture, said Turkana North MP Christopher Nakuleu. He said elders representing Turkana pastoralists and those from Uganda and Ethiopia should be involved in the talks. At the Coast , more than 80,000 people are in need of relief food in Taita-Taveta County. Governor John Mruttu and local leaders yesterday appealed for food after receiving a report of a county steering committee that assessed the situation. Mr Mruttu said the region needed 1,611 tonnes of cereals, and 314 and 117 of pulses and vegetable oil, respectively. We have requested the Ministry of Devolution to supply us with the stocks to save our people from losing lives, he said. The situation is bound to worsen in the coming weeks.

The Meteorological Department recently said the dry season ravaging the country would continue until next month. In Baringo County, livestock prices are on a free-fall due to drought. A spot check by the Nation in several livestock markets yesterday showed that animals, which are the mainstay of the local economy, were emaciated. At Ng inyang livestock market in Tiaty sub-county, for instance, a cow that used to sell at Sh30,000 in November last year is now going for Sh10,000. The price of a goat has fallen from Sh5,000 to Sh2,000 over the same period. Ribkwo/Kositei County Rep Daniel Tuwit said the situation has been worsened by the drying up of major rivers like Chemakany, Lewlew and Nginyang. Thousands of our people are starving and have turned to wild fruits for survival, Mr Tuwit told the Nation. He said the elderly and children bore the brunt of hunger because they cannot walk long distances in search of wild fruits, which are also becoming scarce. Three elderly people are said to have died of hunger in the county, and local leaders led by Governor Benjamin Cheboi have appealed for relief food.

@wachiramuchemi mwachira@ke.nationmedia.com nter-community conicts left 491 people dead last year, a report released by a United Nations agency indicates. The conicts, according to the UN Oce for Coordination for Humanitarian Aairs (OCHA), left another 1,235 people injured while 47,050 were displaced from their homes. The clashes were sparked by competition for political positions and other resources, according to the report. Although ghting may have subsided, issues that led to the violence in Tana River, Marsabit and Mandera counties remain unresolved. The Impacts of Inter-communal Conicts report says those counties were the worst aected. The UN agency, whose mandate is to strengthen response to complex emergencies and natural disasters, released the report on Tuesday. Leaders in the aected areas have been accusing the government of failing to stop the killings. In Tana River, 222 people died in ethnic clashes, the report indicates. The Pokomos, who are farmers, and their pastoralist neighbours, the Orma, engaged in deadly violence that ended before the last General Election. The violence was blamed on incitement by politicians. Despite the suering and the highest number of deaths, Tana River had no displacement, according to the report. THE NUMBERS

Locals want clergy inciting terror seized

Residents of Eastleigh in Nairobi are calling for the arrest of Muslim clerics suspected to be radicalising the youth to join groups such as Al-Shabaab. In a one-day symposium held at the Grand Royal Hotel and organised by the Eastleigh Residents Association, the locals also vowed to implement the Nyumba Kumi initiative in order to smoke out terrorists living among them. Mr Hussein Robba, the associations chairman accused a section of religious leaders of misinterpreting Islamic teachings and misinforming the youth to join radical groups. This is how most of the young jobless youth have ended up joining the Shabaab terror group, he explained. We no longer have a good reputation as we are always associated with terrorism; something has to be done about this. We have gone to all the mosques and churches and told them to preach peace but this is not enough, Mr Robba told the gathering which comprised of over 400 youth representatives from all the wards in the estate. Speaking at the event, Mr Khaif Ali, a member of the association said since the incursion of the Kenya Defence Forces into Somalia, Eastleigh had suered the most. Eastleigh was once considered an economic hub but today people fear coming to shop here and this is really aecting our businesses, he said At the same time, Mr Robba asked the police to stop harassing the general youthful population under pretext that they were members of Al-Shabaab.

MURANGA
Uhuru urges MPs to pass Uwezo Fund law

President Kenyatta has urged MPs to speed up the law that will regulate the Uwezo Fund, noting that the delay was holding back disbursement of the cash. Speaking in Muranga town on Tuesday after the launch of a stipend for old people, orphans and the disabled, the President said already eight months had passed and the youth and women were still waiting for the funds. He stated that the Sh6 billion fund is aimed at empowering women and the youth. Soon after the launch of Uwezo Fund last year, politics surrounded the legislation of the fund and in early November, the President urged MPs to stop complicating the process. However, National Assembly Majority leader Aden Duale said the President and his government had done their part. The law is in Parliament and we should not blame the President, it is the MPs who are yet to play their rightful role, said Mr Duale. The lawmaker said once the House resumes next Tuesday, their first agenda will be to pass the Uwezo Fund regulation. The only thing I will tell your Excellency and the people of Muranga is that we Jubilee leaders both in the Senate and the National Assembly we will provide the necessary laws for the President and his deputy to full the promises they made to Kenyans, he said. The fund was born from a campaign pledge that the Sh6 billion set aside for a run-o would be given to the youth and women if Jubilee won.

Police accused of bias in eviction dispute

A human rights lobby has accused the police of taking sides in the eviction of families at Chepchoina settlement scheme in Trans Nzoia. This follows tension at the scheme after a group of intruders evicted some settlers who were preparing their farms for planting. Centre for Human Rights and Democracy director Ken Wafula said the government had taken sides and was letting some politicians get away with holding night meetings to incite people at the scheme despite a heavy GSU presence.

wins who admitted killing their elder brother after a quarrel have been charged with the murder after changing their plea. Mr James Njoroge, a former soldier, and his twin brother Joseph Njoroge, had plea-bargained for a manslaughter charge and were about to be released on probation when they changed their plea. They are said to have killed Mr Evanson Njoroge on December 19, 2011, at Wanyororo farm in Nakuru. After the plea bargain, their charge
had been reduced to manslaughter and they had pleaded guilty. The 45-year-old twins allegedly beat up their brother with a jembe handle after they disagreed over milk. Evanson is said to have gone home drunk and asked James why he had not given his children milk. An argument ensued and degenerated into a ght with James allegedly hitting his drunk brother several times with the handle. Joseph intervened and together they overpowered Evanson, who returned to where he had been drinking complaining of pain. Two days later, his situation deteriorated and he was convinced by his nephew to report the matter to the police before being taken to Lanet dispensary for treatment. The dispensary referred him to Rift Valley Provincial General Hospital but he died before getting there. A postmortem examination report by Dr Titus Ngulungu showed that Evanson died of abdominal and head injuries caused by a blunt object. The hearing of the twins case will be heard on June 9.

Plea bargaining
Usually when a suspect pleads guilty, the facts of the case are read to him/her after which they are expected to conrm them as true before sentence is passed. If the suspect says the facts are not true, the court enters a plea of not guilty and sets a hearing date. The guilty plea therefore cancels any agreement between the accused and the prosecutor.

Youths shun nursing and teaching courses

Young people in Garissa County are shunning teaching and nursing because the Somali community associates the two professions with untidiness and curse. Governor Nathif Jama yesterday said no one had applied for a scholarship he launched in a bid to boost the number of teachers and nurses in the area. The scholarship was launched two months ago but no one has expressed interest in it. The county depends on professionals from other counties, who seek transfer upon landing jobs to escape hardship.
wo suspected robbers were yesterday shot dead within the city centre in a botched robbery attempt. Another two one armed with a pistol escaped and police are hunting for them. Police seized four pairs of handcus, police radio, fake police sta cards and several bullets during the incident on Kimathi Lane. Nairobi Central OCPD Patrick Oduma claimed the men were part of the gang that was targeting to rob jewellery shops and people leaving banks. We also recovered a fake police certicate of appointment purported to have been issued to a Chief Inspector Maurice Ayuke, he said. The suspects had laid ambush and had targeted a customer from Barclays Bank. However, police had the information also laid ambush. Mr Oduma said officers
trailed the suspected gangsters from Hilton Hotel and on reaching Kimathi Lane, police opened re after one of them attempted to draw a pistol. One of the killed suspects had a robbery case pending before a Kibera court and is also suspected to have been behind the killing of a bishop in Ongata Rongai. Mr Oduma denied claims that a woman was among the dead. The woman was caught up in the melee and fainted but he was assisted by the police, given rst aid and she went her way, he said. WHATS ALLEGED

Ntimama denies role in council houses sale

The city council ignored procedure for property sale, he tells court
BY MAUREEN KAKAH
@mollykakah Mkakah@ke.nationmedia.com eteran politician William ole Ntimama has denied authorising the alleged illegal sale of government houses in 1993 when he was Local Government minister. Testifying in a case in which the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission is seeking to recover Nairobi City Councilowned houses that were sold, the former minister said he did not approve the sale. The houses were built on land measuring 34.63 ha (about 86 acres) in Nairobis Woodley Estate. The anti-corruption agency alleges that the houses were sold without the consent of the minister or a resolution of the council and the Lands Commissioner. The alleged buyers were 48 individuals including politician Musalia Mudavadi. Mr Ntimama, who served for nine years in the Local Government docket, said he was aware of the procedure which the City Council ought to have followed in the disposal of the houses. I did not approve the sale of property in Woodley Estate, he told Mr Justice John Mutungi. The Nairobi City Council had the right of selling or doing anything to the houses provided a resolution had been passed. There was no decision to dispose of the Woodley property, he added. Mr Ntimama was referring to a letter dated September 22, 1993 of an alleged resolution made by the defunct City Council for disposal of houses for rehabilitation in estates such as Woodley, Ziwani, Bahati, and Kaloleni, which required his authorisation. The local authority ought to have held meetings to discuss the issue and a resolution forwarded to the Local Government Permanent Secretary, he said. The hearing continues today.
Grief-stricken man dies at fathers burial

A 39-year-old man yesterday collapsed and died during his fathers funeral. Mr Sande Akhule is said to have been overwhelmed by grief while viewing his fathers body at Buchi Village in Mumias. He was pronounced dead on arrival at Buhuru Health Centre. Relatives said the man was close to his father and could not stand the pain of losing him. The father of three had been disturbed since he lost his father but we never expected things to end tragically, said village elder Tom Okhaya. The father was to be buried yesterday before the family suered the double loss. We are trying to come to terms with the new loss, said Mr Okhaya. At Shenderema Village, also in Mumias, police yesterday retrieved the body of a man from a well. He was identied as 27-year-old Zadock Amboko.

ICC sets verdict date in DR Congo killings case

THE HAGUE, Tuesday
The International Criminal Court yesterday postponed its verdict on the war crimes trial of former Congolese militia leader Germain Katanga to March 7. The verdict, only the third in the courts history, was originally set for Friday, but was delayed because one of the judges is currently unavailable for health reasons, the Hague-based tribunal said in a statement. Mr Katanga, 35, went on trial four years ago facing seven counts of war crimes and three of crimes against humanity, including murder and rape, stemming from conicts in the Democratic Republic of Congos volatile east. His Forces for the Patriotic Resistance in Ituri (FRPI), from the Lendu and Ngiti ethnic groups, are suspected of having taken part in massacres of another ethnic group, the Hema. Among other allegations, Katanga also known as Simba (Lion) is accused of involvement in an attack on the village of Bogoro in which about 200 civilians were murdered. Prosecutors allege women and girls were taken as sex slaves and child ghters forcibly enlisted from the looted village, which was razed to the ground after the attack. Kinshasa arrested Katanga in 2005. The ICC issued an arrest warrant two years later and he was transferred to the court in October 2007. He remains behind bars at the ICCs detention unit in The Hague. Katangas co-accused, former militia boss Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui, was acquitted in December 2012 after judges said prosecutors had failed to prove that Chui played a commanding role in the Bogoro attack.

Meanwhile, Central African soldiers publicly lynched a suspected ex-rebel after a military ceremony today, beating and stabbing him before dragging his lifeless body through the streets, dismembering him and setting him on re.

But immediately after the end of the ceremony in the capital Bangui, attended by senior army and government ocials, uniformed soldiers attacked a young man in civilian clothes, stamping on his head, stabbing him and throwing stones at him, witnesses and AFP journalists said.

wo months after French military intervention in the Central African Republic, French troops and African soldiers have largely disarmed Muslim ex-rebels in the capital, but major atrocities prevail. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said yesterday that at the security level, there are signs of pacication. The African troops are gaining strength. European troops are going to join us. French chief of defence sta Admiral Edouard Guillaud has said in Bangui that the violence has been partly halted by the 1,600 French soldiers who deployed on December 5 alongside the 5,500 troops of an African peacekeeping force (MISCA). But the French and African troops operate largely in the capital, where the Red Cross last week reported nding 30 bodies in three days, while the MuslimChristian bloodletting continues in the interior. A priest in the town of Boda, 100 kilometres west of Bangui, on Monday told AFP that his parish
was sheltering 1,500 people after heavily armed Muslims killed 75 Christians. In Bangui, foreign troops have largely neutralised the mainly Muslim ghters of the Seleka alliance that seized power in March 2013 and launched a campaign of killings, torture, rape and looting against the Christian majority. Asked on Monday whether the time had come to also round up and conne the Christian vigilante groups formed in response to the Seleka attacks, Guillaud replied that in Bangui, its not only Muslim civilians who are killed. There are atrocities by both sides. Little by little, MISCA contin-
gents, backed by French troops, have started to move into dangerous areas where Christian anti-balaka (anti-machete) militia target the remaining Muslim population, AFP reporters have seen. But the foreign military presence has yet to stop killings, as in the capitals Miskine district where Burundian soldiers have a hard time preventing daily attacks on the last Muslims to stay in their houses and shops, unwilling to join hundreds of thousands of displaced people.

Young Egyptian diplomats seek end to dam row

Envoy tells of team being the builders of bridges for future of our relations
BY ANDUALEM SISAY

We have also to be forwardlooking to leave for our future generation a recipe for understanding and for cooperation; not a recipe for disagreement and misunderstanding, he said. The Ambassador noted that decisions related to the use of the Nile River for big projects should be done in a collective manner by riparian countries to make things better and better.

Burkina parties urged to keep o constitution

BY TAMBA MATTHEW
NATION Correspondent DAKAR, Wednesday The head of the mediation group set up to facilitate a peaceful transition in Burkina Faso, has urged opposing parties to scrupulously respect the constitution. Former President Jean Baptiste Oudraogo, appealed to the ruling party and opposition to avoid attempts at revising the present constitution which is the bone of contention between the two sides. The civil society-backed opposition which had long been agitating for President Compaor to give up running for a third and controversial term were joined in the eorts by a political movement of personalities who defected from the ruling party. The opposition coalition firmly believes that President Compaor is planning to seek Senates approval to amend Article 37 of the constitution to allow him to run for the 2015 presidential poll. On Monday, the mediation group comprising of four prominent personalities, held its maiden and marathon meeting with the representatives of the ruling and opposition parties in Ouagadougou on the way out of the political logjam. During that meeting, the group proposed the adoption of a mechanism which could facilitate a honourable exit of the incumbent President Blaise Compaor from the helm of power.
imbabwe urgently needs $4 billion to prevent the economy from collapsing, former Finance minister Tendai Biti has said. The southern African countrys economy is expected to grow by 4,2 per cent this year due to collapse of the manufacturing sector and a slowdown in agriculture. Mr Biti, now the shadow the Finance minister for the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), told journalists on Tuesday in Harare that President Robert Mugabes government should act to prevent a collapse of the economy. The government needs to arrest the deationary situation. In our opinion as MDC, we think that this economy is in urgent need of
a stimulus package to the tune of $4 billion, he said. Mr Biti said so far the government did not seem to have any ideas to reverse the economic challenges characterised by tight liquidity and massive company closures. We dont believe that the solutions oered in the 2013/14 budget will succeed, he said. We do not believe that the African Import and Export Bank will oer $100 million to the government of the day. The Afrexim bank is a trade bank and it is not designed to oer this kind of assistance. The former Finance minister said the government could seek loans from neighbours such as South Africa. It is important to engage South Africa like the Rhodesian (colonial) government that arranged an overdraft facility for companies then, he said. They should just tuck their tails between their legs and go to negotiate with Pretoria. Mr Biti said the government could be forced to re-introduce the Zimbabwe dollar, which was abandoned in 2009 due to hyperination, as it battles liquidity constraints.

MINISTRY OF DEVOLUTION AND PLANNING

PRESS STATEMENT ON THE STATUS OF ALLOWANCES TO CIVIL SERVANTS
The transfer of functions from the national government to county governments was effected in August 2013. However, the national government was required to retain the payroll function for a period of six months to allow for a seamless transfer of this critical function. During this period the national government working with county governments undertook the following tasks: 1. Development and Installation of County Payroll System (IPPD System) in the forty seven (47) Counties; 2. Training of forty seven (47) Interim County Payroll Managers on operations of the Integrated Payroll & Personnel Database (IPPD) system; 3. Distribution of standard guidelines on payroll cleansing to all Counties managers indicating how to verify each employee detail against the personal le; 4. Training of two hundred and nineteen (219) ofcers on IPPD from Counties between 30th September and 18th October, 2013; 5. Continuous provision of technical support and assistance; 6. The Ministry has identied staff performing county government functions and sent the list to the respective counties for verication. 7. The number of staff serving in the counties are 65,951 and the personnel emoluments regarding these members of staff amount to slightly over KES 4.037B The payroll function was nalized and transferred in January 2014. During the transfer of the IPPD system to county governments, a critical function that processes allowances for specic cadres in the service was inadvertently not activated. As a result a number of civil servants did not receive their allowances during the month of January 2014. It should be emphasized that the error does not in any way affect salaries but only certain allowances paid to some categories of staff and do not apply across board to all public ofcers. The problem has since been rectied. It should be noted that civil servants in 24 Counties are not affected. 23 counties are affected by this error and in two out of these counties the allowances are being processed through a voucher system. In the 21 counties the arrears are being processed in this months payroll. We regret any inconveniences occasioned to the affected civil servants and appeal to them to remain calm and patient since the problem has been noted and rectied.. We would like to commend county governments for their efforts in ensuring that the payroll was transferred successfully and payment of salaries done in a timely manner.
Be informed that the said persons are not allowed to transact any business for or on behalf of KAMP-PRISK in any capacity whatsoever. KAMP-PRISK will not accept any liability arising from their actions. Should any one of them attempt to do so kindly contact the KAMP-PRISK secretariat immediately.

UN CALL| Pope Francis should publicly remove all oenders from ministry and harshly punish them
Vatican criticised over child abuse

Transfer of abusers to new parishes within countries cited as main problem
GENEVA, Wednesday
he United Nations denounced the Vatican today for failing to stamp out child abuse and allowing systematic cover-ups, calling on the Church to remove clergy suspected of raping or molesting children. In an unprecedented report for a UN body, the Committee on the Rights of the Child slammed the Vatican for failing to live up to repeated pledges to put its house in order, and said all clergy and lay employees suspected of abuse must be turned over to the police. The committee expresses serious concern that in dealing with child victims of dierent forms of abuse, the Holy See has systematically placed preservation of the reputation of the Church and the alleged oender over the protection of child victims, it said. It urged the Vatican to immediately remove all known and suspected child sexual abusers from assignment and refer the matter to the relevant law enforcement authorities for investigation and prosecution purposes. Committee head Kirsten Sandberg said that despite the Vaticans pledges to adopt a zero tolerance approach, it was in clear breach of the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The simple answer is yes, they

are in breach of the Convention as up to now, because they havent done all the things that they should have done, Sandberg told reporters. The report said the Vatican had failed to acknowledge the extent of abuse, nor taken necessary measures to protect children, and had allowed perpetrators to continue with impunity. It blasted the transfer of abusers to new parishes within countries, and even across borders, in an attempt to cover up their crimes and remove them from the clutches of justice. In a terse response, the Vatican said it took note of the report, but criticised as doctrinal interference parts of the report that questioned its stance on contraception and abortion.

and clandestine abortions, the committee spotlighted the case of a nine-year-old Brazilian who was raped by her stepfather, and whose mother and doctor where excommunicated after she had a termination. The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) hailed the report. The quickest way to prevent child sexual violence by Catholic clerics is for Pope Francis to publicly remove all oenders from ministry and harshly punish their colleagues and supervisors who enabled their crimes, SNAP said. But like his predecessors, he has refused to take even tiny steps in this direction. Now its up to secular ocials to follow the UNs lead and step in to safeguard the vulnerable because Catholic ocials are either incapable or unwilling to do so, it added. The report followed a landmark January hearing during which the 18 independent human rights experts from around the globe who make up the committee grilled senior Church ocials. Like other signatories of the UN child rights convention, the Vatican agrees to be scrutinised by the panel. Its last appearance was in 1995, before the abuse issue burst into the spotlight. (AFP)

2013 sixth hottest year, UN reports

GENEVA, Wednesday
Last year tied for the sixth hottest on record, conrming that Earths climate system is in the grip of warming that will aect generations to come, the UNs weather agency said today. The global temperature for the year 2013 is consistent with the long-term warming trend, World Meteorological Organization (WMO) chief Michel Jarraud said in a statement. Last year equalled 2007 as the sixth warmest year since reliable records began in 1850, with a global land and ocean surface temperature that was 0.5 degrees Celsius (0.9 degrees Fahrenheit) above the 19611990 average, the WMO said. Temperatures in both years were also 0.03 C (0.05 F) above the average from 2001-2010, which in turn was an extremely hot decade, with 2005 and 2010 topping the warming charts. Those two years saw temperatures about 0.55 C (1 F) above the long term average. Thirteen of the 14 warmest years on record have occurred in the 21st century, said the agency. Jarraud acknowledged that the rate of warming is not uniform in every country. Last year, for instance, was the hottest year on record in Australia, while the United States measured record highs in 2012. (AFP)

be met, putting disarmament weeks behind schedule. So far just two small shipments of chemicals have so far left the Syrian port of Latakia, accounting for less than four percent of the countrys declared arsenal of most dangerous chemicals, the United States said last month. Last week the worlds chemical watchdog also called on Damascus to pick up the pace, echoing similar sentiments by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. Syria has told the OPCW that it is making intensive eorts to prepare for, and accelerate, the transportation of chemicals, and that it is currently working on a tentative schedule for completing the transportation of chemicals. The UN Security Council last year backed a US-Russian deal to destroy Syrias vast chemical arsenal as a way to avert US strikes threatened after chemical attacks near Damascus that Washington blamed on the regime. Under the agreement, Syrias entire chemical arsenal is to be eliminated by June 30. (AFP)

CBK grapples with ensuring mobile rms share platforms
Regulator says though it can opt for coercion to see this enforced, the best way is to let rivals engage in dialogue to open up networks
BY CHARLES WOKABI
cwokabi@ke.nationmedia.com he government is grappling with modalities that it can apply to force mobile operators to open up their cash transfer platforms to one another. Central Bank of Kenya governor Njuguna Ndungu said while there is a general agreement that the systems need to be made interoperable, questions abound on how to go about ensuring this is achieved soon to realise the full benets of the services. He spoke at the launch of the 2nd leaders roundtable meeting for the African mobile nancial services policy initiative. While the bank, as a regulator, can simply impose rules forcing mobile operators to open their systems to a level that users can send and receive money without network limitations, the governor said, creating a platform for dialogue among the parties has been seen as a more liberal approach. One of the challenges we have is the limited extent to which the systems and devices can exchange and interpret shared data. The dilemma for policy makers is whether to impose rules on markets participants that lead to greater connection

What the bankers said

in order to preserve Kenyas position as a global leader in mobile money innovations. The mobile money operators must open their platforms to one another, both in the country and regionally, to such a level that a person can send or receive money across any network in real time. At supermarkets, you can pay using any mobile money platform, debit or credit card. This is how interoperable the mobile money systems need to become, said Mr Ndungu. He, however, said some mobile operators have perceived interoperability as a way through which they will gain more market share without necessarily investing resources in the service. There has been a perception that interoperability should serve to enlarge some players market share but this should change. We need to sit down together and see what investments each of the players need to make to the process, said the governor. Interoperability dominates in new regulations governing mobile money sub-sector that are soon to be published. Airtel, yuMobile and Telkom Kenya have in the past decried the dominance of Safaricom in the mobile money market and accused it of refusing to open its M-Pesa system as well as sharing agents. At some point the three operators threatened to open up their systems to each other and share agents in a strategy to beat M-Pesa dominance. However, the idea was not implemented. Yesterday, Mr Ndungu challenged operators to become more competitive in order to address the question of dominance. Market dominance, usually created by the rst mover advantage, has been a challenge. The best check on market power may best come from new disruptive technologies as a result of entry by new competitors rather than regulation, said the CBK boss.
Simply impose rules
Kenya Bankers Association chairman Habil Olaka called for stier regulation of the mobile money platforms to create condence among the millions of Kenyans who rely on them to conduct nancial transactions.
among scheme providers or not to interfere, and let innovation thrive, said Mr Ndungu. With penetration already achieved in Kenya, mobile money services remain largely limited due to the diculties imposed by lack of interoperability of the systems.

Kenya in doubt over who to pay renery cash

Parliament is questioning the authenticity of a rm to which the government is to pay Sh430 million as Essar opts out of managing the Kenya Reneries Limited. The parliamentary investment committee said negotiations to sell a 50 per cent stake in the renery in 2009 never involved Essar India but Essar Mauritius, whose ownership cannot be established. Committee chairman Adan Keynan (right) while questioning John Mrutu, a former general manager at the renery said Essar Mauritius has nothing to do with Essar India that is pushing for the Sh430 million opt out payment from the deal. This could turn out to be a serious economic crime because Essar Mauritius has nothing to do with Essar India as we have been made to believe, said Mr Keynan. Mr Mrutu said the government did a due diligence and established that the two rms were related before selling them a 50 per cent stake. Mr Mrutu was ordered to submit a detailed report before the committee in a week detailing ownership structure of Essar Mauritius. The revelations now bring to the fore the confusion surrounding real owners of half of Kenya Pipeline Reneries Limited that remains shut since last October.

AGRICULTURE | Kenyan, Tanzanian and Rwandese producers to benet from project
Sh340m deal to cover farmers

Initiative seeks to protect growers against weather and price see-saws
BY RAMENYA GIBENDI
@ramenyag rgibendi@ke.nationmedia.com he International Finance Corporation has signed a Sh340 million deal with Syngenta to provide weather insurance to small-scale farmers in Kenya, Rwanda and Tanzania. Granted under the Indexbased insurance, the cover is used to guard against shared rather than individual risk such as crop or animal loss associated with climate changes, disease out-breaks or price swings. Dubbed Kilimo Salama , the programme is currently beneting 187,000 farmers in the region though the partnership targets up to 2 million growers in the next two years.

CMA sets deadline for those bidding to buy Rea Vipingo

BY NATION REPORTER
The Capital Markets Authority has set a deadline for investors planning to make an oer to acquire Rea Vipingo to do so by the end of the month. Similarly, existing bidders with intentions of changing their present oers for the sisal plantation company will also be required to notify the public before then. It is notied for general information that any person intending to make a new offer should issue the necessary notice of intention to the target company not later than February 28, 2014, read a notice by CMAs acting chief executive Paul Muthaura yesterday. The deadline will help the regulator lay down a programme that will assist Rea Vipingos shareholders make informed decisions on the take-over. The direction isto ensure that the timetable for all oers may be harmonised to allow the shareholder of the company to be provided with comprehensive information regarding the oers, in a manner that will enable them make informed decisions, said Mr Muthaura. Three rms have already shown interest in acquiring the plantations rm.
How the system works

The model works through farmers cooperatives, micronance institutions, selected seed markers and agricultural NGOs where a farmer buys the policy through a trusted source. It depends on satellite and local weather stations to determine if prevailing conditions present potential losses to farmers, which triggers a payout from UAP insurance. Delivery channels are tasked with collecting and transferring premiums to the insurer as well as handing out payouts to individual farmers after weather stations have shown unfavourable weather or diseases.
shall be instrumental in expansion of this programme; This year alone we target 600,000 farmers, said Syngenta executive director Marco Ferroni. Since inception in 2011, Kilimo salama has been relying on operating margins
charged on premiums to fund its growth. The policy is a boost to small-holder farmers who are locked out of the traditional indemnity-based agricultural insurance due to high transaction costs. Index-based insur-
ance pays out benets on the basis of weather data without field verification of losses, making it more efficient and cheap, said Mr Ferroni. Farmers have the option of insuring the input cost or what they project to harvest with premiums ranging between 10-30 per cent depending on an areas climatic data and the season. Kilimo Salama thus has installed 78 fully automated weather stations in Kenya that transmit weather data every 15 minutes over 3G mobile data network. If harvests fail due to bad weather, farmers are reimbursed through M-Pesa and can plant again, said Mr Jacobeth Barno, project manager for agriculture insurance initiative adding that the adoption rate now stands at 60 per cent.

Microsoft reboots with new CEO

Founder Bill Gates changes his role from chairman to board technology adviser
WASHINGTON, Wednesday
icrosoft rebooted itself for a mobile future yesterday, naming Indian-born Satya Nadella as its chief executive while founder Bill Gates sheds his title of chairman for a more hands-on role. Gates will devote more time to the company on the board as founder and technology advisor, it said. Nadella, 46, who becomes the third CEO at the tech giant, has been executive vice president of its Cloud and Enterprise group.
We are living in a cloud-rst, mobile-first world, Nadella said in a webcast. That is the world we are building for, and all of this is going to be mediated by software. His battle plan includes luring users to Microsofts Surface tablets, Xbox videogame consoles, and Windows-powered mobile phones. Microsofts acquisition of Nokia is expected to be nalised in the coming months. As people increasingly use the same smartphones or tablets at work and at home, Microsoft must bridge the two worlds with software that gives companies security they crave, Nadella said. He said his rst priority as chief will be to meet with employees, customers, partners and investors since, despite his 22 years at the company, there is still a lot to learn. He vowed to focus on what Microsoft is uniquely positioned to do. As the industry changes we have to innovate and move forward, 58-year-old Gates said in a video released on the Microsoft website. Im thrilled that Satya has asked me to step up. He called Nadella a proven leader with hard-core engineering skills, business vision and the ability to bring people together. (AFP)

YOUR STARS
AQUARIUS | JAN 21 - FEB 19 Many of your aairs are in a state of ux and so it is likely to become very dicult for you to dene the line between quick thinking and leaping crazily to conclusions. For this reason, you may just have to do as your instincts dictate; PISCES | FEB 20 - MAR 20 There is a happy feel about this particular day with the emphasis on greater understandings. Your life or love may have lost its lustre but the stars today will soon restore it. Whats more, you will be sensing a favourable change in the wind. ARIES | MAR 21 - APR 20 You should be able to nalize matters involving work or domestic arrangements. However, during this complicated day, even decisions that seem straight forward could be more dicult than you had thought.Trusting that your nely tuned intuitions are the best guide. TAURUS | APR 21 - MAY 20 You will nd wherever you go that others are cheerful, optimistic and ready to help you out. As a Taurus, of course, you always work better when in harness with somebody else and this is particularly true on this day. Romance has a lucky feel about it too. GEMINI | MAY 21 - JUNE 21 The general disarray would seem to indicate that this is not the ideal moment to have a heart to heart talk with close friends or loved ones. However, they are likely to be in a very communicative mood which plus the changes in the air would mean that progress can be made on issues that have been persistently contentious. CANCER | JUN 22 - JULY 22 Today timing is everything, or so the planetary setup suggests, therefore you really cannot force issues. It may take all of your patience to allow things to develop at their own pace, but letting events themselves guide you resolves issues quickly as well as tidily. LEO | JULY 23 - AUG 22 Changes in where and how you live may not have been part of your plan, but think carefully before you reject opportunities that would involve a major move. The developments indicated by the stars setup may be unsettling and unconventional, but this doesnt mean they are not benecial. VIRGO | AUG 23 - SEP 23 You will experience a few weeks when your condence will be soaring and your self-belief is unshakable. This is one time then when you must push ahead with what you want and not allow detractors or critics to deect you in any way. LIBRA | SEP 24 - OCT 23 No one understands the importance of harmony more than you, which is the reason your friendship is of such value to others. Usually you are able to blunt your temper and use tact but todays star suggest that all forms of communication should be more direct.. SCORPIO | OCT 24 - NOV 22 The coming day will see a break with some old ties, but also the beginning of some important new one. Your practical, logical head needs stability, and routine now you have entered a new period in your life, and from now on you will be showing the world a bigger you.. SAGITTARIUS | NOV 23 - DEC 21 You should stay out of the limelight right now. You probably will not shine and could possibly throw a monkey wrench into plans already underway. Meeting with people whose goodwill you need should be put o until later on. CAPRICORN | DEC 22 - JAN 20 It is a eld day for Capricorn brainpower today. An apparently insoluble question is posed to you on the job. The puzzle might be hard for others to gure out. You should be able to get to the bottom of it in no time.

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS QUALIFIER| This is our moment, declares team captain Maiyo
Bullish Kenya start quest for maiden ticket to Worlds

Hosts face Egypt, Cape Verde and Botswana for the single qualifying spot available in the group
BY AYUMBA AYODI
@AyumbAyodi sayodi@ke.nationmedia.com his is our moment to make history. This is the confidence Kenya captain Philip Maiyo exuding ahead of their volleyball 2014 World Championships mens qualiers against Cape Verde at the Safaricom Indoor Arena today. We have the best chance and this is our moment to write history, said Maiyo upon receiving a sponsorship cheque of Sh1m from Nairobi Coca Cola Bottlers managing director Patrick Pech for their African qualiers. Pech, who gave Sh 500,000 cash and similar amount worth of refreshments for both men and womens teams, promised Sh1m cash for each of the teams if they for qualify for the World Championships. Kenya only needs to win Pool U that has Egypt Botswana, Zambia and Cape Verde to make it to the event slated for August 29 to September 9 in Poland. Africa will get there other two representatives from Pool V and Pool T. The team coached by Gideon Chenje launch their quest against Cape Verde at 4pm in the Confederation of Africa Volleyball (CAVB) qualiers before meeting Egypt in a match that could be the decider of the tournament tomorrow at 4pm. However, Kenya will still play Zambia on Sunday before wrapping up against Botswana on Monday. There is no reason why we shouldnt make it to the World Championships. The team has improved especially at backcourt play and reception play since meeting Egypt last in November, said Maiyo. My colleagues have since polished on their mistakes since the Africa Zone Five World Championships pre-qualiers in Kigali, Rwanda in November last year where they settled for bronze. Maiyo, however, reckons that it will be suicidal for them to underrate their opponents. Kenya lost to Egypt inve sets of 25-23, 20-25, 17-25, 25-18 and 13-15 when they last met. On paper, Egypt is our major hurdle to Poland Worlds but we need to believe in ourselves and be condent that we can make it, Maiyo said. We must capitalise on the homeground advantage and the new qualifying format. Maiyo, who is based in Turkey, said morale was high in the camp. They should not be under any pressure because volleyball is the same across the world, said Maiyo.
Ogier out for Swedish follow-up
KARLSTAD, Sweden World champion Sebastien Ogier (left) is hoping history repeats itself when he takes to the wheel of his Volkswagen on the Rally of Swedens classic snowcovered roads this week. Ogier took the honours here 12 months ago after a tight tussle with Sebastien Loeb, the since retired nine-time champion. Ogier prevailed over his illustrious French compatriot by less than a minute to give Volkswagen their rst championship victory. And the omens of a follow up appear positive after Ogier began the 2014 season with success in the opening rally in Monte Carlo. Rally Sweden is one of my favourite rallies on the calendar, said Ogier. Last year, we claimed the rst win for Volkswagen here, following a great duel with Sbastien Loeb. That was probably the best rally of my career so far. Like Loeb, we pushed ourselves to the very limit the entire time, and had to give 100 per cent every minute. We are the team that everyone wants to beat. It will denitely not be easy, but I would love to win here again. Ogier leads the edgling championship standings by nine points from his compatriot Bryan Bouier, in a Ford Focus, with Citroens British driver Kris Meeke a further two points adrift in third. Fords Scandinavian driver Mikko Hirvonen retired from Monte Carlo but is upbeat about his prospects in Sweden. Im really looking forward to Sweden where I think we can be competitive. Were certainly determined to show what we can do. Its one of those events where a driver needs to really attack but in the narrow sections you also have to be very precise. Theres a very narrow line that forms, and if you venture o that line you can easily nd yourself in trouble. Norwegian driver Mads Ostberg has warned Ogier to expect a ght. (AFP)

Loves 31 points lifts Timberwolves over LA Lakers

Minneapolis Minnesotas Kevin Love scored 31 points and pulled down 17 rebounds to lead the Timberwolves to a 109-99 NBA victory on Tuesday over the injury ravaged Los Angeles Lakers. Kevin Martin tied a season-high with 32 points for the Timberwolves, who handed the Lakers a seventh straight defeat. The Lakers welcomed two key players back from injury in Steve Nash and Steve Blake, but saw Jodie Meeks depart with an ankle injury less than two minutes into the contest and Jordan Hill exit with a possible concussion at the end of the rst quarter. The last time the Lakers endured a seven-game losing streak was March 215, 2007. Both Nash and Blake were in the Lakers starting lineup. Nash, sidelined since November 10 with lower back nerve pain, played 24 minutes and had seven points and nine assists. Blake who had been sidelined since mid-December with a torn ligament in his right elbow was held scoreless in 32 minutes on the oor but had six assists and ve boards. I thought they played well, Lakers coach Mike DAntoni said of Nash and Blake, noting that Blake fought through a ruptured ear drum suered in the rst quarter. I just remember getting hit really hard in the ear and everything went hollow sounding, Blake said of his latest injury. Hill was hurt when he took an inadvertent elbow to the face from teammate Chris Kaman under the basket that left him with a neck strain and headache. (AFP)

Radclie targets one more run in home city

London Britains Paula Radclie (left) has targeted one nal appearance at the London Marathon and could compete in 2015. The 40-year-old set the world marathon record in London in 2003 and has won the race on three occasions. A foot problem has plagued Radclie in recent years, and she was forced to withdraw from the 2012 London Olympics. This year in London is too soon but Id probably only ask my foot to do one more marathon, she said. If I had to choose, sentimentally, itd be London. Radclie, who won the world marathon title in 2005, has not competed in the London race since 2011 and has not run a marathon since nishing third in Berlin in September 2011, but is back training with the British team in Kenya. Im not being unrealistic. Im not thinking I can get back and run two hours 15 minutes but, if I could come back and run a sub 2:30 then Id like to do it, she said. I would love to come back and run a marathon or even a halfmarathon and just be able to nish my racing career on my terms. Very few people get to do that. Id just like the chance. Radclie has also won the New York Marathon three times and added: I will never say retire but if I run one more marathon, Id love it to be New York or London. Mara Yamauchi, who holds the second fastest British womens marathon time said: I dont think she could get back to 2:15, her world record, but I think she might go out to win the race or do sub 2:20. Meanwhile, the British leg of this years Diamond League will take place in Glasgow, two weeks before the city hosts the Commonwealth Games, organisers have said. (AFP)
ATHLETICS AGENDA |
Barnabas Korir
Being unrealistic
Counties must walk the talk on facilities

or the last one year, there has been too much talk from the county governments about the plans they have in store for sports in their regions. County after county have taken advantage of gatherings in their areas of jurisdiction to talk about the purported big plans they have for sports. So far, one year has gone and still there is no commitment on the ground that something will happen soon. Apart from Machakos and Mombasa counties which have been on top of their game, the rest have continued to oer lip services. At least Machakos and Mombasa promised to host Cecafa and it happened in record time. Machakos, especially disapproved the doubting Thomases by ensuring the ground was ready in a record two months. I want to talk about counties closer to me and where athletics really thrives. Uasin Gishu and Elgeyo Marakwet have in the past promised to re-brand and market themselves as a gold mine for world champions in the region. The idea behind it was to tap into the athletics prowess and market opportunities available for investments as some of the best athletes in the world hail from the three counties. Uasin Gishu was to be branded as the Champions and Elgeyo Marakwet the Home of Champions . The counties were even said to have unveiled their ags and logos which recognise athletics as key in their marketing strategy. As much as these are bright, the question we should ask is whether the counties are justied to claim a stake where they did not sow. I am saying this because there is nothing tangible on the ground to show that they are serious in as far as sports investments are concerned. What I gather from the whole scenario or rather hullabaloo is that someone wants to ride on the athletics glory for free. Counties must realise that ghting for names like Home of Champions comes with a prize and they must be ready to invest. Instead of battling over who owns which athletes, counties need to think of what they can do for the upcoming runners in a bid to continue churning stars. At the moment, training grounds like Kipchoge Keino in Eldoret and Kamariny are in deplorable state yet the same counties are least bothered. It is through such venues that champions are discovered and the best way for counties to associate with the stars is to ensure the facilities are up and running. Besides the two, Something need to be done about Kisii Stadium which used to produce top mid and long distance runners and Bukhungu Stadium in Kakamega, which has great potential of producing the much sought for sprinters. Time for lip service is over and the earlier counties got down to business the better for all of us. Barnabas Korir, chairman AK Nrb (barnabakorir@yahoo.com)

Mutai eyes redemption in London

Kenyan says he wants to repeat 2011 Boston feat that made him fastest marathoner in the world
BY COPPERFIELD LAGAT
@copperlagat clagat@ke.nationmedia.com top results, Mutai lamented. However, Mutai, 30, says he has been preparing for the race since last year. This will be one of the most competitive races in the world because it has attracted its biggest names ever since its inception in 1989. The quality of competition will be high. That is why I skipped some major events to prepare for London. After his scintillating dash in Boston, Mutai attacked the course record and lowered it to 2.05.06, 2.37 minutes faster from Tesfaye Jifars ten-yearold record of 2.07.43. He would drop out while vying to defend his Boston title in 2012. Mutai made his London marathon debut last April. The 2005 Helsinki World 5,000 meters champion Benjamin Limo is putting his money on Mutai: Mutai is a dangerous runner and his 2.03.02 should not be taken lightly, he says.
t was devastating for Georey Mutai when the IAAF declined to ratify as a World Record, the quickest time of 2.03.20 he set when winning the 2011 Boston Marathon. A record cannot be endorsed if the nishing point is sloping as it gives an athlete undue advantage. It must be at and athletes are normally warned in advance. This is what happened to Mutai in Boston and even though it dampened his spirits, the 2012 World Majors winner says he is already over it as he hopes to bounce back at the London Marathon on April 16. Mutai who spoke to Nation Sport in Iten said he wants to leave a mark at the race when he lines up against a stellar cast that includes World Record holder Wilson Kipsang and Olympics and world champion Stephen Kiprotich. Mutai said he is targeting to repeat Bostons feat in London.

EuroAsia Cup team golf tourney is no mistake, fumes OGrady

Singapore European Tour chief executive George OGrady has strongly denied saying the new EurAsia Cup team golf tournament was a mistake after organisers of a rival event claimed he was having second thoughts. OGrady was responding to comments from Ivan Ballesteros, co-managing director of the rival Royal Trophy, who said the European boss had told him having two similar, Europe v Asia tournaments was unsustainable. I categorically refute the comments that Ivan has attributed to me stating that the EurAsia Cup is a mistake and not sustainable, OGrady said in a statement sent to AFP. It is simply not the case. We are very much looking forward to the initial playing of the match next month where two excellent teams are coming together under the captaincy of two of the greats of the game Thongchai Jaidee and Miguel Angel Jimenez. The EurAsia Cup, which debuts next month in Malaysia, will be a Ryder Cup-style Europe v Asia team event. It is similar to the longer-established Royal Trophy. The seventh edition of this tournament was held at Chinas Dragon Lake Golf Club in December. Organisers of the Royal Trophy, inspired by the late Seve Ballesteros, are unhappy with new tournament. They were further enraged when OGrady said the late Spanish great would have cherished the EurAsia Cup. The dispute plays into a long-standing feud between Asias competing golf circuits. The Royal Trophy is backed by the OneAsia circuit, the new EurAsia Cup is supported by a rival set-up, the Asian Tour. (AFP)

During yesterdays nal round, Anil who is now the resident professional at Muthaiga, shot a perfect round of six under par, to claim his rst victory since 2012. I real cannot explain how this good golf came from because I have not been seriously practising, said Anil. He birdied the second and third holes at the front nine, followed with birdies over the 10th, 11th, 14th and 15th for a bogey-free 66 and a total of 204. I am so happy with this score, I have not played such a good golf like this for a long time and I hope I can maintain this good run, added Shah who beat Kenya Railway Golf Clubs John Wangai by ve shots to collect the rst prize of Sh48,000. Wangai, who has been playing well since his weekends 65 at Railway, dropped a shot at the second hole of the rst nine but replied there after with four birdies coming over the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth. He bogeyed the 11th but birdied both the two par ves at the back nine (14th and 15th), dropped a shot at the 16th but remained on course up to the 18th for his second three under par 69 in two days which gave him an all rounds total of ve under par 211. The Mumias Sugar company sponsored-Dismas Indiza closed with an impressive ve under par 67 to tie in third place with David Wakhu on level par 216. His round included birdies at the rst two holes at the front nine and a late one at the seventh. At the back nine, Indiza, one of the longest hitters on the African continent, drove to the green on the par four-10th to pick up a two-club which he quickly followed with a birdie three at the 11th. He looked set for a clean round until he bogeyed the 16th. Brian Njoroge managed a two under par 70 for fth place. The fourth PGK Mini Masters is set for Muthaiga Golf Club from Tuesday next week where the pros will be playing for a purse of Sh350,000.

Kenyan umpire Pamba Odhiambo gets ICC Under-19 World Cup call
BY RICHARD MWANGI
@rmwangi24 rmwangi@ke.nationmedia.com One of Kenyas top cricket umpires, David Pamba Odhiambo, was set to leave for Dubai last night to ociate in the International Cricket Council Under-19 World Cup that will be held in the United Arab Emirates from February 14 to March 1. Odhiambo is the only Kenyan in the ICCs associate and aliate panel of international umpires. He replaced Subash Modi, the rst umpire from east Africa to be in the panel, who retired four years ago. Odhaimbo and Modi were in the group of 20 cricket umpires from non-Test playing countries who attended a seminar in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2005 where some of them were elevated to the newly created panel. Odhiambos appointment was announced by the ICC in a media release of February 4 that named 13 umpires, 10 of whom are from the Emirates International Panel of ICC Umpires, the ones who ociate in Test matches and other top notch ICC xtures. Commenting on Odhiambos appointment, the chairman of Kenya Cricket Umpires and Scorers Association, Narendra Dave said: Am very happy for Odhiambo. He deserves it. It is an honour both for him and the country. How come a small country like Nepal could produce an umpire for the qualiers and not Kenya, asked Dave. Odhiambo is one of two umpires from Africa who are in the 2014 list of ICC associate and aliate panel of umpires. The other one is Wynand Louw of Namibia. The panel has 11 members in all. Like Africa, Asia, Americas and East Asia Pacic have two members each. It is only Europe that has been allocated three members. Odhiambo made a name for himself as a world class scorer during the 2000 ICC Trophy in Nairobi that brought in all the 10 Test playing countries: Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, Zimbabwe, England and West Indies. Kenya took part courtesy of being the hosts. He has been ociating in continental events and now has a golden chance to prove himself internationally.
Batsman Pieterson so sad after England career comes to abrupt end

London Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen (right) expressed sadness over the end of his international career on Wednesday and said that he was incredibly overwhelmed by the support he had received. The 33-year-olds days as an international cricketer came to an end on Tuesday when the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced that it had unanimously decided to move forward without him. With England due to name their squads for the forthcoming tour of the West Indies and the World Twenty20 today, the ECBs new managing director, Paul Downton, elected to make a decisive call on Pietersens future. Pietersen posted a picture on photo-sharing website Instagram of himself leaving the eld after his nal Test match against Australia in Sydney during Englands recent 5-0 Ashes defeat. He wrote: So sad that this former England bowler Dominic Cork for claiming that Pietersen had clashed with captain Alastair Cook during the Australia tour. Dominic Cork - there was no squaring up to Alastair Cook or off-field antics in Australia - you are lying, plain & simple, she wrote. She later added: Regurgitating rumour & spinning it as fact is not what Id call responsible journalism. The public deserve so much better - the truth. Cork had told Sky Sports News that there was nearly a dust-up, a ght between Pietersen and Cook, but former England captain Michael Vaughan rubbished his claims. With the way England were playing I am sure players had lots of strong debate in the Dressing Room, Vaughan wrote on Twitter. But squaring up??? #Nonsense. With 13,797 runs to his name, Pietersen bows out as Englands all-time leading scorer across all formats of the game. (AFP)

Speaking to the Evening Standard newspaper following his long-awaited return from injury in the game at Fulham which his club Southampton won 3- 0 Wanyama said that he
hoped his high prole would at last put Kenya on the world football map. At present the top English sides tend to restrict their searches for new talent to the west African region where the top African players in the Premier League come from. Players in Cote dIvoire, Nigeria, Cameroon, Senegal and Ghana have become regulars in English club sides over recent years but there is still no-one apart from Wanyama from east Africa. Everyone back home is looking up at me to show people that Kenyans can play and open doors to others. We Kenyans have a lot of talent. Its just that we dont have scouts going there. I hope I will raise the prole so in
Raise the prole
the future the scouts go there. Then our players can show their skills, he said. Wanyama made history on his Southampton debut in August as it meant Kenya became the 100th country outside of the United Kingdom to have a Premier League player. He also spoke of the irony of being labelled the new Patrick Viera as when he was a child in Nairobi, the midelder wanted to be like the former Arsenal star and, during Southamptons earlyseason rise to fourth, some pundits said they could see a touch of Vieira in his play. People did say I play like Vieira. I like going forward from mideld. The manager does not ask me to stay back but you have to pick the moments to go.

Beckham to become MLS team owner

David Beckham was poised to conrm yesterday that he will own a team in Miami, boosting further his global prole and that of Major League Soccer. It has been one of the worst-kept secrets in world football that the former England star intends to exercise his option to buy an MLS club and wants to bring it to Miami, with the plan contingent on a deal for a privately funded stadium.

Blow for Leopards as Wanga ruled out of Confed match

BY JOHN ASHIHUNDU
@JohnAshihundu jashihundu@ke.nationmedia.com AFC Leopards prolic striker Allan Wanga (left) will not play against Defence Force SC of Ethiopia in Sundays Confederation Cup match due to a knee injury. Leopards coach James Nandwa announced yesterday that his lead striker is still under doctors observation and will not be considered for the preliminary round clash at Nyayo Stadium. Wanga limped out last weekend during the Charity Cup semi-nal match against Mathare United. Also on the big cats injury list are former AP striker Michael Khamati and defender Anthony Kimani who will be out for eight weeks after undergoing a knee operation. But Nandwa said he had options for the injured players. Meanwhile, defender Joseph Shikokoti is positive that Ingwe will start well in their African campaign. Shikokoti said the slip up in the Charity Cup over the weekend should not be used to gauge to measurer their preparedness for the game. People should not judge us from that performance, said Shikokoti.
KPL bars ve venues from hosting ties

BY DAVID KWALIMWA
dkwalimwa@ke.nationmedia.com The Kenyan Premier League secretariat has temporarily banned five venues ahead of the 2014 league campaign that kicks o in less than a fortnights time. According to a detailed report by the leagues Stadia, Safety and Security Committee, Thika Stadium, Chemelil Sports Complex, Bukhungu Stadium, Kinoru Stadium and Embu Stadium will not be allowed to host games owing to varied deciencies. These deciencies range from poor state of the pitch, wrong sized goal posts, lack of washrooms and dressing rooms to ineective perimeter fence. We propose to the administrators of teams that have had their grounds suspended to seek alternative venues for the 2014 league matches until their facilities meet the recommended minimum standards the report signed by the committees chairman Laban Jobita, whose team Western Stima ironically plays its home matches at the Bukhungu Stadium, read. In the meantime, the aected teams have reacted dierently to this development. Thika Uniteds CEO Mike Muiruri has blamed the Kiambu County Government over delay in renovating the venue, and hinted that the team will move their

@kwalimwadavid dkwalimwa@ke.nationmedia.com obby Williamson is leaving nothing to chance as he prepares his team for an eagerly anticipated date against Gabonese outfit US Bitam in their African Champions League preliminary round clash at the Nyayo Stadium on Saturday. Im watching some videos of our opponents in action. They are a solid and organized outt who play for each other, possibly with much more experience on this stage compared to our squad, the Gor Mahia coach said. On the contrary we are a team in pre-season, our target is to harness an advantage ahead of the return leg in West Africa, Williamson added. The two sides have been paired against each other for the rst time in history at the preliminary stage of the competition this season. T h i s encounter will however be concluded in the next 10 days, when the two teams meet in the return leg for the second time inside a week at the Stade Gaston Peyrille in Bitam town. The West African team was scheduled to arrive in the country yesterday evening, some 72 hours to the scheduled kick-o time. Gor qualied for the competition after winning the Kenya Premier League last season. KOgalo will be lining up for the clash on the back of an unimpressive recent history on the continental scene, and an unforgettable weekend where the side were humbled 3-1 by Sofapaka in the season opening Kenya Power Charity Cup competition. Exits to Rwandas APR, Egypts ENNPI and Mozambican outt Ferroviaro de Maputoin the Confederations Cup in recent seasons doesnt make a good reading for Gors enthusiasts. Williamson, who is set to parade his new signings including George Blackberry Odhiambo, Shaban Kenga, Georey Baba Kizito and Godfrey Walusimbi for this clash together with the returning Rama Salim , believes this record will however count for nothing. Gor Mahia will feel destiny is on their side after winning the KPL for the rst time in 18 years.

Jobita meanwhile confirmed that his team will relocate to the Mumias Sports Complex. Its true we cant use Bukhungu for now, and Kisumu which is our second choice is also not ready, so we will be playing in Mumias in the meantime, the Western Stima chairman said.

ransport Principal Secretary Nduva Muli yesterday defended the standard gauge railway project, saying the tender was awarded within the law. The former Kenya Railways MD, who had initially opposed the project, told MPs it was a viable project. Mr Muli said Kenya Railways (KR) was involved in vetting and review of the feasibility study as well as the preliminary design done by China Road and Bridge Corporation for the project.

In a letter to former Transport permanent secretary Cyrus Njiru in 2011, he said a study of such magnitude would require Kenya Railways sta to participate as
counterpart personnel. But in a meeting with the Public Investments Committee which is investigating the mega project yesterday, he said he had hesitated to endorse the project initially because he had to be satised that it was practical. We had to be satised before making a conclusion, there are several things we needed to be sure about and that is why it took us from April 2011 to June 2012 to endorse itwe were convinced that certain things were acceptable, he said. He said the tender award fulfilled the procurement law and all necessary requirements. It would be premature to say that the law wasnt followed to the letter in terms of procurement, he said, arguing that contracts for the project were yet to be nalised. Mr Muli said he changed his mind about the project after being furnished with details of the designs, specications, nancing and legal aspects. He added that China Road had the technical and nancial capacity to deliver on the project.

Save eight times your annual pay by retirement

RECENTLY, you penned an interesting article on retirement savings. In my view, I did not understand what you meant by saying that at 35 years of age, you should have saved one times your current salary My question is, did you mean ones current salary per month, per year or what? Going by say Sh20,000 monthly salary, kindly illustrate how one should save? Sumba
OPINION
Moses Korir, research analyst, Zimele Research.
Write to: nancialmake over@ke.natio nmedia.com
THANK YOU for your insightful observation. Retirement planning is of great importance in our lives and needs to be treated as a matter of priority, more than most individuals are currently doing. Numerous strategies have been crafted to guide on retirement saving. However, there are no rules on retirement planning cast on stone as each plan may dier based on ones circumstances. For instance, the 8 times salary plan is just a rule of thumb and is one of the many recommended approaches that ensure a life of comfort in retirement. It suggests that one should save at least eight times his/her annual salary just before retiring to ensure that they dont out-live their savings on retiring. However, it is advisable to save as much as possible for retirement while trying to keep your lifestyle expenses as low as possible. The ability to keep your expenses in check
implies that you will retire to a relatively manageable lifestyle. As soon as one is able to earn, it is wise, sooner rather than later, to start putting something aside for the future. The question of how much is enough does not have an outright answer and often varies from one person to the other. One has to realise that it is almost impossible to plan for every contingency given the number of variables to be considered. Having a reasonable plan will go a long way in alleviating adversities, and the best approach is to save more and more whenever possible. The 8 times rule suggests that one ought to have saved at least eight times their ending salary before retirement, however, one can progressively increase the proportion during the various life stages. This is why we said at 35 years, one should have saved at least one time his/her annual pay, at 45 years three times, at 50 years ve times and eight times by 55 years.
It is advisable to save as much as possible for your retirement.

FILE | NATION
So using Sh20,000 monthly salary as an example, at 35 years one ought to have saved Sh240,000, at 45 years Sh720,000, and at 55 years Sh1,920,000. In an ideal situation, ones earning should curve upwards such that by the 45th year if you were earning Sh20,000 ve years ago, you would be earning say Sh60,000 and in that case by the 45th year you need to have tacked away Sh3,600,000 for retirement, and so forth to the 55th year. With the advantage of the power of compound interest on your savings, reaching your retirement goal becomes a reality having started saving as early as possible. If you are not currently saving for retirement then we recommend that you join a registered personal pension scheme, which provides
a good avenue for raising retirement savings. Personal pension schemes operate in an environment that ensures your money is always safe, is invested professionally and enjoys various tax benefits to ensure that you retire with peace of mind and in comfort. All personal pension schemes must be approved
and registered by the Retirements Benefits Authority (RBA) and must be granted income tax exemption by the Kenya Revenue Authority. You can get a complete list of personal pension schemes running in Kenya from the RBA website. We hope our clarication has been of help to you.
AS SOON AS ONE IS ABLE TO EARN, IT IS PRUDENT, SOONER RATHER THAN LATER, TO START PUTTING SOMETHING ASIDE FOR THE FUTURE. Moses Korir

How to get a good name for your small business

WHATS IN A NAME? A lot, when it comes to small-business success. The right name can make your company the talk of the town. The wrong one can doom it to obscurity and failure. Ideally, your name should convey the expertise, value and uniqueness of the product or service you have developed. Some experts believe that the best names are abstract, a blank slate upon which to create an image. Others think that names should be informative so customers know immediately what your business is. Some believe that coined names (that come from made-up words) are more memorable than names that use real words. Others think theyre forgettable. In reality, any name can be eective if its backed by the appropriate marketing strategy. Heres what youll need to consider in order to give your small business the most appropriate and eective name. You might consider consulting an expert, especially if youre in a eld in which your company name may inuence the success of your business. Naming rms have elaborate systems for creating new names and they know their way around the trademark laws. They can advise you against bad name choices and explain why others are good. Whats in a Name? Start by deciding what you want your name to communicate. It should reinforce the key elements of your business. Your work in developing a niche and a mission statement will help you pinpoint the elements you want to emphasize in your name. The more your name communicates to consumers about your business, the less eort you must exert to explain it. According to naming experts, entrepreneurs should give priority to real words or combinations of words over fabricated words. People prefer words they can relate to and understand. That is why professional namers universally condemn strings of numbers or initials as a bad choice. How can a name be both meaningful and broad? Descriptive names tell something concrete about a business, what it does, where its located and so on. Suggestive names are more abstract. They focus on what the business is about. Consider Italiatour, a name that was developed by one naming company to help promote package tours to Italy. Though its not a real word, the name is meaningful and customers can recognise immediately what is being oered. When choosing a business name, consider:
^ Choose a name that appeals not only to you but also to target customers. ^ Choose a comforting or familiar name that conjures up pleasant memories so customers respond to your business on an emotional level. ^ Dont pick a name that is long or confusing. ^ Stay away from cute puns that only you understand. ^ Dont use the word Inc. after your name unless your company is actually incorporated.

MONEY FIGHTS FOR YOUR RIGHTS WITH YVONNE KAWIRA

Your case is in court, liaise with our legal team: KCB

Hallo, I was employed by the Kenya Commercial Bank as a cashier-cum-teller on February 13, 1989. I voluntarily retired on June 15, 2010. After deducting all the loans and debts I owed my employer, the bank deposited Sh4,161,164.61 in my current account as my retirement benets. I had taken a loan of Sh1,865,000 on March 12, 2008, from the bank and despite the money-lender deducting all the dues, it continued withholding my title deed purporting that I still had Sh1,856 debt by virtue of my credit card. In my view, merging credit card and the loan issue was unfair because I believe the two are dierent. However, it released the title on February 5, last year. I transferred Sh2 million from my current account to Boresha account in the same bank. To my utter shock, between August 6 and 17, 2010, I realised that Sh1,098,000 was missing from my current account. I also lost Sh1,076,000 from my Boresha account between August and September 2010. I suspect that in both cases, I lost the cash through bank fraud. Take for instance: On August 6, 2010, according to the bank statement, Sh261,000 was withdrawn across the counter and paid to a payee named Florence. As if that was not enough, on August 9, 2010, Sh119,000 was withdrawn from my current account across the counter but the beneciary is unknown. On August 17 the same year, Sh100,000 was paid from my current account to one Nguru. These are some of the unauthorised transactions done on my current account. On my Boresha account where I lost Sh1,076,000 my ATM card which I had not collected from the bank was used by other parties in the institution to illegally withdraw money from my account after accessing my PIN number. On lodging the complain, the bank said that I issued blank but signed instruments, for instance, cheques and internal vouchers to its sta whom I purportedly owed money to withdraw the cash from my accounts. As a result of this fraud, ve bank sta were axed in April last year. I have requested my former employer to provide me with documentary evidence showing that I owed any of its sta money, but the institution has been unable to do so. In a letter that I sent to the moenylender in April 3, 2013, and which the organisation acknowledged receipt on July 3, 2013, it denied liability. I had then requested photocopies of the said pay instruments that I had allegedly issued to the bank sta, but my former employer has been unable to provide that as well. There is evidence that I did not request in writing for my Boresha account ATM card yet illegal transactions were executed using my card. In total I lost Sh2,174,000 through fraud which I believe was an internal

bank job. Capital Letters, help me get back my money. I am seriously suering with my family members who entirely rely on me. The business ventures I had started collapsed due to lack of capital yet the bank is denying liability. Alex Mwendo. Thank you, Alex, for getting in touch with us on this matter. It is unfortunate what you have had to go through from the time you voluntarily retired from Kenya Commercial Bank. We got in touch with the nancial institution on the matter you have lodged here and it informed us that you have already taken the complain to court and therefore, it cannot discuss it. In addition, the bank has urged you to liaise with its legal team to agree on the way forward. We urge you to allow the law to take its course on the matter. We, however, hope you will get justice and your problem will be solved amicably. Hi Yvonne, My name is Samuel. My beloved brother, Watson Maina, died in 2009. If my memory serves me right, he
was a shareholder in a local nancial institution. However, the details about how he executed the transaction are scanty since he did not tell anyone, but one thing is clear to me, that the money-lender he invested in was Equity Bank. He bought his shares through the banks Nyeri branch. I believe that there is something that can be done to reclaim the shares. Help me. Hi Samuel, At Capital Letters, we are sorry for the loss of your brother and we thank you for writing to us seeking the way forward on this matter. We got in touch with the nancial institution, Equity Bank, with the transaction which you claim your brother executed. Equity Bank promised to get to the bottom of this issue and help x your complain without further ado. And true to the organisations word, last week, we were happy to receive an email from you with information that the bank has been in communication with you. We hope that your matter would be solved soon. We also urge you to keep us informed on the progress of your case.

Family business: Why you shoul

Holding relatives in a family owned investment with promises, meagre pay or even excessive perks may trigger a boomerang effect seeing them turn against the enterprise in the future

There, he joins other sta in the days work and does not leave until after 9pm when the business closes. Carrying bags of sugar, hurling cartons of cooking fat from trucks and cleaning shelves form part of his daily duties. Sometimes, we have to put in a few extra hours to ooad in-coming stock, says the 34-year-old. However, for the past three years that he has been working at the store, he has not been getting any salary. Ironically, he is not bothered: I dont feel like a slave

or as if my uncles are exploiting me, he told Money. With an average sta earning of Sh15,000 per month at the store, he would be at least Sh540,000 richer if he was getting pay. However, he does not regret. This is our family business, and its protability is our collective endeavour. In Narok North district, Grace Sendeiyo has been manning her familys wheat farm for the past four and a half years without a salary. This is a family land and whatever produce we get belongs to everyone in the family. In a bumper harvest, she says, the four-acre farm produces about 72 bags of wheat, earning them Sh200,000. We each bag at Sh3,200 when prices are good. In the next harvest, our family will be Sh1 million richer. That is enough payment for me. Her father and his siblings run
a joint family account where they deposit earnings from the farm. If one of them has a nancial problem, they receive small grants from that account. Subsequently, she and her cousins run the farm on a twoyear alternating term. We cannot ask for salaries; it is disrespectful and selsh, she notes. Timothy and Grace are not the only Kenyans of working age who do not get salary for their sweat. Although Kenya has 20.2 million people of working age, only 4.8 million of them have paying jobs. According to a survey by the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics and the Society for International Development, 15.4 million Kenyans of working age are not paid for their labour. 76.3 per cent of Kenyans oer free labour in family owned businesses, the survey noted. The study, Exploring Kenyas Inequality: Pulling apart or pooling together, was published in November last year. As Money found out, the lustre of family owned businesses appear to be tainted by the in-
creasing mixed perceptions to the provision of free-labour, and feuds from sibling-shareholders. Supremacy court battles on

who should hold what position, how to share profit and who ought to take nothing have hit the headlines. In 2012, for instance, five brothers ghting over the control of Tuskys supermarket went to court, revealing a secretive dynasty spanning three generations controlling one of Kenyas top retail chains. Hot on their heels was Naivas supermarket, whose siblingshareholders sued each other over planned 51 per cent sale of the countrys fourth largest retail store to South Africas Massmart. According to Peter Mutua, a family business consultant, family owned enterprises are prone to deception by temporary success. This is particularly evident in cases of partnerships with dominant market players whose expansion automatically leads to enterprise growth, he says. Although the increased market share and growth will be endearing to the family, he notes, longterm spectacular upswing could ignite unreasonable demands. In a similar vein, holding relatives in a family business with promises, small pay or excessive perks may trigger a boomerang eect seeing the relatives turn against the enterprise. This is what Elijah Koech could be attempting to avoid after being forced to quit his sales and marketing job to run his family business, for free. My family owns 15 matatus that ply Nairobi-Nakuru-Kisumu highway. Each matatu goes for one trip and is expected to make at least Sh3,000 net prot, he says, adding that in a day, the business makes Sh40,000 on average. However, he deducts Sh5,000 from the venture as his pay everyday: I dont get paid because I am expected to inherit the business. But I have my own needs and goals and I cannot postpone them until I inherit the business, he says. He plans to buy his matatu by October this year. However, not all family-owned businesses experience destructive sibling rivalry, or get free labour from relatives. There are cases of inherited businesses that make billions for the family, says Josphat Wambiru, a nancial adviser and family business consultant. Take the Muguku family investments. According to regulatory lings at the Nairobi Securities Exchange, Mugukus have been raking in millions of shillings selling their stake at Equity Bank. In the two months to January, the family took home Sh185.4 million after ooading 5,336,055 shares. In the six months to November last year, the family made Sh327.5
06
million worth of shares. Those are huge prots that can precipitate a lot of trouble between siblings. But the Mugukus seem to have manoeuvred around their prots well, notes Mr Wambiru. Selina Nasimiyu runs a family business where siblings draw pay. I started a PR rm together with my three sisters three years ago, she says. Apart from the business, they have jointly made investments in equity bonds, land and farming and are now building rental houses on their late fathers plots in Nakuru. We have jointly invested close to Sh15 million and we are getting juicy prots from our joint ventures. I could not be where I am had I chartered my entrepreneurial path alone, she says. Unlike Grace and Timothy though, Selina and her sisters have been getting salaries. We divided roles and responsibilities according to our qualications. I took PR

because I have a degree in mass communication and a diploma in public relations. She says that they have hired a human resource professional who oversees how they get pay, each according to her position: I take home Sh90,000. My younger sister gets Sh50,000 while another one takes home Sh110,000 per month, she told Money. That be as it may, many family businesses nd it challenging to pay relatives. Money has found out that many relatives come in at either end of the pay spectrum, they are either under-paid or over-paid. Josiah Mruttu, 30, has been swimming in a wave of over-remuneration. He is the highest paid worker at his fathers hardware in Thika. He gets Sh25,000 per month, the same as the supervisor at a neighbouring hardware. The supervisor at his fathers hardware earns Sh20,000.
LABOUR
Pay relatives acording to productivity

he bottom-line in family related labour services should be payment for work done by relatives, according to reasonable market rates. Family business consultant Josphat Wambiru cautions against under, over or even zero payments to relatives working in a family owned business. Levels of pay should be commensurate with their responsibilities and productivity, says Mr Wambiru. You ought to pay a basic salary that corresponds with the market benchmark for the job. If you also pay commission or bonuses, let them be based on performance
against a pre-determined objective. In the same breathe, family businesses with multiple sibling employees tend to pay them the same
amount of salary irrespective of their responsibilities and productivity. Many family businesses pay working siblings what they need rather than what theyre worth, notes Mr Wambiru. For long-term family business success, he says, equality in payments should not be mixed with equity. Neither should job titles and perks be inated to award relatives. Some of the most successful family-run businesses in Kenya include the multi-million shilling Philip Ndegwas banking and insurance empire, Vimal Shah familys Bidco Oil Reneries and Nakumatt Supermarket chain.

INCOME DESIGNER STARTED MAKING GOOD PROFITS AFTER THREE YEARS OF PERSEVERANCE IN THE BUSINESS
Accountant dares to dream big in fashion

For the love of luxurious fabric that reect African heritage, Wambui Mukenyi is making good returns selling designer women clothes
BY LILIAN OCHIENG

or the love of fashion, Wambui Mukenyi made her rst bold decision in 2009, quitting her accountancy job to launch her collection. Ms Mukenyi, 30, worked for two years as an accountant in a real estate rm but always felt that she was in the wrong profession. Quite often, she could look at her colleagues trying to gure out what dresses could t them well, she told Money. I knew that I had to quit accounting. Fashion was too alluring for me, I couldnt keep my hands o it, she said. A self-taught designer, her love for luxurious fabric that reects the rich African heritage would act as her stepping stone into the lucrative fashion business. Her rst collection of designs in 2009 was not very appealing, she says, and not come close to what a professional designer could have delivered. I liked designing clothes, especially women wear, so I piled up a collection that I had designed and steered up models to showcase it for me, said Ms Mukenyi, I knew there was no turning back. Having graduated from Kenya College of Accountancy in 2006, she was welcomed to the real fashion world by Ms Wambui Muchiri whom she worked for as an assist-
ant designer. I designed some of her pieces, steered social media marketing for her collection as well as went to workshops and saw how fashions are designed, said Ms Mukenyi. From her job, she made Sh300,000 seeing her launch her outt Wambui Mukenyi collection. She decided to design ladies clothes especially wedding gowns and oce wear from her studio at Diamond Plaza, Nairobi. The studio cost her Sh180,000 to rent, she could display her work at the centre after tailoring. Her equipment includes fabrics, overlock sewing machines, button-hole machines among others. The rst month in fashion was quite slow; she launched a collection consisting of eight pieces women clothes. The collection was so dramatised and far from my notion and target of making clothes meant for a working woman, said Ms Mukenyi. From a capital of Sh300,000, she made Sh100,000 prot. It was demoralising it to see her hard-earned money dwindle, she told Money. I vowed to work smarter, put pen to paper drawing real trendy fashion designs, I spent time watching Fashion TV and reading fashion magazines, said Ms Mukenyi. This, she says, shaped her vision and sharpened her skills, I enjoyed every bit of it just drafting down what I felt could make a statement. Her passion and hard work yielded fruits after three consecutive years of persever-
Self-taught fashion designer Wambui Mukenyi. Through perseverance and hard work, she has been able to set up a thriving fashion business in Nairobi.

ance to make her rst Sh500,000 prot per month which put a smile on her face. As her collection broadened in style, fabric and colour she hit Sh1.3 million prot in a month. She has since been making millions of shillings in prot every month. Ms Mukenyi has dressed television presenters, for example, NTVs Victoria Rubadiri, Citizen TVs Lilian Muli, Janet Mbugua, as well as Kubamba show host Kambua Manundu. In 2012, she collaborated with Ms Janet Mbugua to launch Janet Mbugua collection. Ms Mukenyi noted that she is an avid reader of Trend Report surveys that detail fashion trends across the world. This keeps me posted on new and upcoming designs and what fabrics could best
go along with the trends, she says. For instance, she told Money, Emerald green and checkered prints in black and white or red will be the in thing this year. Women are likely to wear illusion dresses more this year, these are dresses that give an illusion that one is slim; it is enhanced by colours in the mid part of the dress, she said. Her role models in the Kenyan industry are KikoRomeo design and fashion house as well as Patricia Mbela. Ms Mukenyi who imports most of her fabrics from Africa and European countries is determined to hit international stores this year: I am working on ways of spreading my wings to Nigeria, Tanzania, Morocco, Uganda and Europe. I want women there to appreciate my wears.
ASK ABOUT INSURANCE ISAAC NGARU
The role of insurance in mitigating weather-related disasters

Reports of famine-related deaths in Turkana County are very disconcerting. I recall your having written about weather-related cover, calling for inclusion of insurance in disaster management. With the looming drought, I feel your advice could resonate with the relevant authorities. Letiwa E., Samburu As you rightly put it, vagaries of weather are upon us again and so, your query is timely. Last year, when the country was experienced excessive rainfall and ooding in April, I answered a similar question, but I think the topic is not rendered tedious by repetition as the present circumstances justify its relevance. Weather-related disasters in Kenya are periodic occurrences whose risk parameters are well-delineated. Natural disasters occur in cycles of 9, 11 or 13 years and within this continuum, it has been observed that in Kenya, we experience a major drought every 10, or so years. This statistical fact renders itself amenable to development of feasible weather-related cover. Several insurers are covering agricultural losses in various parts of the country. There are two broad categories of weather-related cover products, the traditional livestock and crops insurance, and parametric cover. Under the traditional agricultural insurance, individual risk assessments have to be made. Parametric insurance relies on a weather or geological observation or index, such as the average temperature or rainfall over a given period, or the intensity of an earthquake or windstorm. Payments under this system are not based on individual loss assessments but are determined according to the measurement of a highly correlated index. The product pays out in events that are triggered by a publicly observable index, such as the recorded rainfall. By not requiring individual loss assessments, the product eliminates the issues of moral hazard and adverse selection. In contrast, conventional agricultural cover products are more complex and dicult to deliver in smallholder economies because of higher administrative costs, moral hazard and adverse selection. The parametric insurance product is a powerful nancial tool to tackle the major risks associated with rain-fed agriculture and, thus, allow small-scale farmers and pastoralists to hedge against such risks as drought or ood. Weather index-based insurance aims to improve the risk management capabilities of the many stakeholders working within the agricultural supply chains primarily. But it can also be an eective risk transfer alternative for other sectors, such as power generation entities whose fortunes are also aected by weather. Reverting now to the issue of incorporating insurance consideration is disaster management planning, this should be a given. At present, most of the disaster management initiatives are taken ex post facto, that is after the event, meaning that these are responses to disaster, limited to provision of relief to the stricken people. The expense for such exercise is usually a shilling-for-ashilling whereas if there were insurance in place, the expense would have been the premium paid which is often far less than the amount of loss. So, insurance could be the best device for funding losses emanating from disasters. Therefore, disaster management teams at the county level and elsewhere should also consider looking at the possibilities of procuring or facilitating insurance. Finally, allow me to add that although insurance is the last line of defence against risk, it is not a panacea for all risk. There are many common sense initiatives that should be undertaken to avert the eects of disaster. However, insurance can play a vital role in disaster management planning as it takes care of risk that cannot otherwise be avoided.

How I started importing armoured cars

After runin with robbers, entrepreneur hopes his business not only lls a market gap but also strives to eliminate cases of shootings involving motorists
ohn Ndolo, 21, has had his fair share of run-in with robbers in Nairobi. He has been attacked four times, once at gun point in broad daylight and another time he was nearly hospitalised thanks to a beating he received from thugs. His encounters, however, are just but part of increasing statistics of robbery with violence victims across major towns in Kenya. The daytime robbery nearly traumatised me. It happened just under the nose of other pedestrians who did not spare a glance in my direction. It made me realise that it truly is every man for himself and God for us all, he said.

teeth helped give rise to Mr Ndolos idea of importing armoured vehicles. I actually stumbled upon the idea as I was watching a movie. The media bombards us every day with heartwrenching stories of people waylaid by thieves. They have developed even better mechanisms such as posing as wounded pedestrians in order to stop motorists, he added. The entrepreneur hopes that his venture can not only help ll a market gap but also strive to eliminate cases of shootings involving motorists. The second year urban design and development student started doing research on bullet proof vehicles in 2011. Part of his survey included numerous discussions with experts in the eld who encouraged him to collect enough information and pursue his vision. In April 2012, Mr Ndolo registered his rm, Magio Holdings Limited and later acquired seed capital from investors in the private sector who had shown interest in the business. It was not easy, he says, as many were hesitant because he lacked experience and he depended on contacts provided to him by friends and acquaintances to drive sales. Since June 2012, Magio Hold-

ings has been in a partnership with Stark Armouring, a Canada-based company to import its B7-grade armoured vehicles which are resistant to a hail of AK-47 bullets. A price quotation from Stark company is issued to an interested buyer after placing an order stating of the preferred car model. Sixty per cent is then paid up-front while the balance is settled once the vehicle is shipped into the country, a process that takes ve weeks. Interested customers who lack
the funds needed to import a vehicle can have a special lm tted on their car windows to make them bullet proof. Added benets of the vehicles include run-at tires which can keep the car moving for an extra 80 kilometres despite getting punctured. This is an evasive mechanism that will enable the driver to get away from a dangerous scene, he noted. The youthful businessman targets individuals and uses his spare
time to network with potential customers at events and conferences. He gets assistance from his sales agents who are paid on commission for every vehicle sold. His remarkable venture awarded him the opportunity to address the public at President Kenyattas launch of youth and women procurement expo, giving him the much needed opportunity to get the word around. At the moment, he has applied for several government tenders. He is hopeful for positive outcomes. This is not his rst business. He started by selling event tickets while in school before graduating to hotpots and old newspapers then nally agribusiness which has proved quite successful. With Sh500,000 loan which was repaid in four months, Mr Ndolo invested in greenhouse farming of tomatoes and rabicum owers. Sales from the produce averaged about Sh160,000 every month. The youth, who is a member of the league of young professionals, attributes his success to his hungry and passionate personality. He encourages fellow youth to think outside the box: Let us not be myopic in our thinking. We cant all get oce employment but thankfully there are a lot of opportunities out there.

LAUNCH ENTREPRENEUR CAREN OTIENO STARTED WITH SH200,000 SEED CAPITAL IN 2003
Moving up the economic ladder, one coin at a time

Former roadside shmonger in Nairobi now a successful entrepreneur in Siaya County
n 2002, Caren Otieno was a shmonger in Nairobi; this year she is the owner of two thriving hardware shops in Siaya County. Mrs Otienos story is one of climbing the nancial ladder, one coin at a time. She started o as a roadside shmonger in Nairobis Donholm estate but after two years she got bored with urban life and resorted to return home. A time came when I decided I was better o staying at home to run my projects from there. I discussed with my husband on the ideal business and we settled on a hardware shop, said the 43-year-old. She started o with stock worth Sh200,000 in 2003. This was raised partly from her savings and through a boost from her husband, who was then a banker. Her plan was to run the hardware store alongside her farming business at her matrimonial home in Mutumbu, Siaya County. In the start-up days of her enterprise, she specialised in the sale of iron sheets, cement and fencing materials. Through supplying such items, she soon established a relationship with local schools, non-governmental organisations, churches and individuals within her catch-

ment area. Because of the ties, she reaped enough prots to enable her open up another hardware store at the neighbouring Kodiaga trading centre six years later. Mrs Otienos revenue inlets would expand with the onset of mobile money transfer service, M-Pesa. She opened up her rst M-Pesa outlet in 2009 and she now manages ve of them. In 2012, she also saw another opportunity to make income agency banking. She started o as a Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) agent at her rst hardware shop and she now has six; two each for KCB, Co-Operative Bank and Equity Bank. This is a rural area and agency banking has been received very well; so well that it is the one parents use to pay fees for their children. Each of my two shops has an agency, she said. Thanks to her consistency and an eye for prot-making opportunities, Mrs Otieno has expanded her business from a Sh200,000 venture to a business with a total value of over Sh9 million. Her assets include two lorries for transporting stock. She has also stuck to her initial plan and grows maize and beans for sale. From one employee in 2003, she has now employed 12 people full-time. We sought to know how much she earns a month. After catering for all my expenses, I

From a modest shmonger, she is now a busy manager whose handset can barely last more than ve minutes without a business-related call coming her way. How did she do it? Good customer service, she says, is what has seen her scale the heights in the tough entrepreneurship world. I never knew how much my customers valued me until I was attacked by robbers recently. The support I got would not have been given to someone who harasses their customers. Equally, she was proud of the trust she has built in her customers. To succeed as a businessperson, your customers need to trust you fully. Im glad it has reached a level where a customer doesnt have qualms leaving me their money to be collected later, she said. She also attributed her success to perseverance. She said she has been a victim of burglary and has fallen prey to fake currency users. Most recently, she lost Sh215,000 in a daylight robbery after visiting two banks in Vihiga County. Sometimes it boils down to how much bad news you can stomach as a trader, because drawbacks must arise from somewhere or other, she stated. The trader was also thankful of the support from her husband Barrack Otieno and also Gods benevolence. Mrs Otieno now looks forward to venture into real estate where she plans to develop some of the plots that she and her husband have bought.

WEALTH MANAGEMENT PATRICK WAMEYO
Turn your knowledge into skill, then to wealth

POVERTY is as popular as a pork chop in a synagogue, and perhaps one of the most fought enemy to human kind. The largest proportion of any population any where in the world is composed of people who have live in the shadow of wealth creation. They happily live each day from hand to mouth and have convinced their minds that there is no way out this quagmire. For this and perhaps other reasons, more wealth ideas remain raw, undeveloped and understood. Fear of the unknown, the impediment to implementation of wealth ideas is established upon the ignorance of the idea itself. There is no universal formula for starting out on business ideas successfully but there are well established steps, requiring some inquiry, and trial and error in building condence about the product and markets for a wealth idea. Creating a knowledge base from research and testing is the rst step in developing a business idea, and can be done with the least amount of money. The wealthy advise that you spend more time learning on the onset. Developing a business idea involves realtime testing of its wealth generation potential. It is the rst step in swimming in the unchattered waters. It creates a personal experience with the potential product and its market, an appreciation of basic economic pillars demand and supply in its market, and the condence required to face potential nanciers. Essentially you create a known from an imagination. In success comes out of the tension between fear and discovery we highlighted the fact that fear of the unknown is our brains way of identifying the things about which we are ignorant. Trying out a wealth idea realtime helps eliminate this ignorance gradually through research and experience from testing it, which brings in condence and eventually prot and the much needed cash ow. How well you understand this early phase in business will separate hot air from wealth ideas when shark tanks come knocking with real money to invest in it. When you feel that fear, as we will always do when faced with having to chose the path less trodden, let it be a trigger for curiosity and discovery discovery about what you do not know about yourself your strengths, personal challenges, limiting thoughts and mindsets; and curiosity about the facts you could unveil that either arm or disapprove its potential. You discover yourself as you uncover its wealth potential.

The average mortgage rate for Quarter IV last year, according to The Mortgage Report, was 16.89 per cent. Standard Chartered Bank continues to oer the most competitive interest rate, currently standing at 13.9 per cent. National Bank of Kenya has revamped its mortgage product, but the rate has Consolidated Bank In previous reports, we have focused heavily on the importance of bringing down interest rates to encourage mortgage aordability and penetration in the country, says Carol Kariuki of The Mortgage Company. Competitive advantage for industry players will be dened by the ability of nanciers to crack some issues that remain unanswered. The current closing costs in mortgage transactions, therefore, can be prohibitive to many, especially where savings are in short supply. In countries where home ownership penetration has grown, governments either had to chip in to force savings as in the famous Singapore model or create incentives that encourage rst-time home buyers through very attractive tax packages, says Ms Kariuki. Unfortunately, the same does not obtain in Kenya, where, for developers to access incentives, they must show that their projects will not exceed Sh1.6 million. Given the rise in cost of land, construction and the many taxes introduced to the booming sector, such prohibitions do little to encourgae home ownership in the country. So, with most first-time home buyers simply unable to meet the nancing costs of mortgages, the sector is now seeing a concentration of the middle classes in town house renting, delivering a surge in rents across the mid-level of the property market, which went up a further 4.5 per cent from October to December 2013, and a 19.4 per cent across the year, says Sakina Hassanali of HassConsult. And, while many commercial
THINKING OF BUYING? THESE ARE THE LIKELY
ome years back, the World Bank studied Kenyan home ownership trends and the consequences of its now long-term property race. The results were startling, but the one thing that worried the international lender the most was the lack of access to nancing options by the middle class. Home ownership, the study found out, was still the preserve of the elite, the monied folks with millions lying idle in their fat bank accounts. These people, however, needed no loans to put up their glistening castles, and that meant that lenders offering mortgage facilities were barking up the wrong tree. The market had the potential to grow, but with minimal bank input, it was stuck at the foundation level. Then the 2000s happened, a property race ensued and keen-eyed developers saw the opportunity to mint millions. In Nairobi, semi-detached town houses sprang from the earth overnight, changing the horizons of entire suburbs in a matter of months. Pundits said the industry had finally come of age, that the banks were about to rise from their slumber, smell the mortar and reduce their lending rates in order to accelerate the growth. They were mistaken. The lenders held onto their high rates, stiing a market that exhibited immense potential. By close of last year, commercial banks were still holding onto high rates, resulting in low

Some Kenyan commercial banks still hold on to mortgage rates priced more than nine percentile points above thi base rate. banks have shown interest in availing mortgages to the market, credit assessment remains poor at best, says Ms Kariuki of The Mortgage Company. Mortgage applications take at least two to four weeks to have the initial indication of nanciers interest. Once this has been provided, meeting the long list of requirements becomes a onerous task that only those with serious determination to see the process through ever complete the draw down process, she says. Many financiers hold large portfolios of approved, held pending draw down, meaning either the completion of the homes remains a challenge, or the customers gave up waiting for approval and found other ways of nancing their homes, says Ms Kariuki. For Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), most nanciers shy away from even touching their request, and those who do have criteria are so stringent and the rental income so heavily discounted that many give up along the way. Notwithstanding, all these people currently live in rental accommodation for which they faithfully pay rent every monthend, posing the question: What is more stable, an employment income (one could lose their job) or rental income for a house that will be there for the next 20 years?

RETURNS
CAPITAL APPRECIATION Supposing that the house consistently appreciates at a rate of ve per cent every year, then the value would be P (1+r) n = 6 (1+0.05)20 = 6(1.05) 20 = 2.65 * 6 = 15.919, or Sh16 million. Therefore, the value of the property will have gone up to Sh16 million in 20 years, and one will have earned Sh8 million in rent over the same period. The total return from the house will be Sh16 million from capital appreciation and Sh8 million in total net rent, adding up to Sh24 million. This is denitely higher than the amount one would put in mortgage payments over the 20 years, and the other costs (calculated in Table II above), which gives a total of Sh16, 005,360 million. The total prot one would make from this mortgage in 20 years would be Sh24 million minus Sh16 million, which is Sh8 million. This translates to a return of 50 per cent in 20 years or 2.5 per cent each year. Note that this calculation is based on the assumption that the interest rate does not change in the 20 years, as some xed-rate mortgages change upwards every ve years. The returns could be higher if the rents are higher than what we have used, and the investor should also look out for overprices houses, says Ms Kariuki of The Mortgage Company. And if one were to occupy the house, the rent they would forego should be used for these workings. If one would pay the mortgage on time, there would be no penalties for late payment, and if they paid lump sum amounts from time to time or paid a higher deposit, they will reduce the interest paid on the mortgage.
Kariuki Waweru, author of The ABC of Real Estate Investment in Kenya, gives two interesting perspectives regarding Kenyan mortgage and rental housing investment options. Assuming the investment is a three-bedroom at in, say, Pangani, priced at Sh6 million, at a xed interest rate of 14 per cent per annum paid over a period of 20 years, the deposit most banks require is 20 per cent of the total cost, which is Sh1.2 million. The mortgage, therefore, will be for Sh4.8 million, resulting in monthly payments of Sh59,689. The total payments, over the 20-year period, will therefore be Sh14,325,360 for a house initially valued at Sh6 million. The total interest accruing to the bank, therefore, is Sh9,525,360!

Assuming that the cost summary is about 10 per cent of the amount borrowed a very conservative gure then before you decide to take up a mortgage you will need to have about Sh480,000 to process the loan. Table II Total costs Item Deposit (20 per cent of Sh6 Million) Amount in Sh 1,200,000

The average lending banks were charging in Quarter IV of 2013, making mortgage closing rates somes of the most prohibitive in the region and, in turn, stiing growth. credit more easily , urges Ms Kariuki. Automation of credit assessment, as is common in other markets, should alleviate the current challenges where the subjectivity of credit assessment leads to delays in approval of facilities, she adds. Many of our financiers are very excited when receiving credit applications, but thereafter, the customer is taken through a long, protracted process to provide documentation, which seems as though the financier disapproves everything that the customer says. When, nally, the customer gets the facility, the security perfection process is long and delayed, she adds In a nutshell, then, the current funding model does not lend itself to enhancing growth of the industry. All nanciers use their balance sheets, hold the mortgages in their books, and use short-term funding to nance mortgages. The development of the secondary mortgage market has been spoken about many times, but cannot be overemphasised. To begin with, it will reduce the cost of funding for the industry, therefore allowing more people access to mortgage nancing. The big question is: Is Kenyas property market built on solid ground? Those who say yes argue that low mortgage uptake means there is no risk of foreclosure for many, while those who say the bubble will soon burst insist that current astronomical prices make no economic sense. Below, what our readers are saying online. Blog your views at www.nation.co.ke, or send an e-mail to dn2@ke.nationmedia.com.
Assuming that the service charge is only able to cater for internal repairs, and that external repairs and maintenance of the property will cost say Sh784,000, this would mean that the net rent is Sh8 million
Your say: Is it a case of boom or burst for Kenyan property sector?

All Kenyan: Comrades and compatriots, it is not necessarily true that ordinary Kenyans do not have properties in upmarket and uppermiddle-class areas. While still in Nairobi, as a family, we gured that Runda had potential. Rather than buying land and building in lower-middle-income areas, we decided to invest all our savings in Runda. Then we started using cooperative loans (unsecured, by the way) to build. It took six years to nish. Today, you all know the values of the property. Currently renting, and returns are excellent. The alternative would have been another part of Nairobi that was aordable, but not necessarily with same returns capacity. And by the way, I have come across similar people like us. True Kenyan spirit with calculated risk. Sam: In my humble opinion, the best country in which to own a home is Germany. Yearly property taxes here are low, buildings are built to last many lifetimes, the paperwork is accurate, home title deeds are kept securely by the city, the environment is safe, clean and accessible to public transport and the neighbours are polite. GregTwiss: I agree, Sam. Thats why I have my house in Germany! And, pound-for-pound, I get more value than I could ever get in Kenya. Infrastructure is worth money. In Germany, there has been a power outage where I live twice in 25 years (each time for less than two hours). I have rapid and cheap atrate Internet, and Germany has super highways galore. There is simply no comparison. Oh, and as you rightly say, when you buy a property in Germany, you can be sure that you really, really do own it! Joejma: It is cheaper to buy an apartment in South Africa or Singapore, and the payback period (return on investment) in Kenya is tenfold more than what it was just ve years ago. It is therefore cheaper to rent than to mortgage. Other factors such as security issues from neighbouring Somalia and Ethiopia, high unemployment (with 90 per cent of Nairobis population living in informal settlements), high poverty rates, stagnant GDP, lack of infrastructure, devolution problems, all indicate that all is not well. The inux of foreign and diaspora capital is hiking properties and this cannot be sustained. As it stands, many apartments in Greater Nairobi and Mombasa are taking much longer time to ll up, and generally construction has slowed down. All that goes up has to come down. Jay: Recently I have begun to see a drop in the prices of homes in upmarket areas since most people cannot sustain the demand. The increase in home prices in areas such as Kilimani and Kileleshwa was fuelled by piracy. There was a time a three-bedroom rental unit was going for between Sh110,000 and Sh160,000 in those areas, but now you can get one for even Sh70,000. However, areas that middle income earners can aord Rongai and Syokimau, among others are still booming because the demand in those areas is sustainable. The very high-end areas such as Runda and Kitisuru will remain unaected as demand there is mainly sustained by foreigners. It is therefore the higher-end middle-income areas that are likely to experience a burst. dn2@ke.nationmedia.com
Deesbeeleef: There is something perverse about foreigners and very few locals owning plush properties while most Nairobians, for example, live in hovels. The boom/bubble in Kenyas property market is also driven by unsavoury sources of money which need cleaning and legitimisation. This is our capitalism gone nuts. Then we act astonished when some of these people who have corrupt associates in Immigration and with other elites turn around and cause deadly mayhem. Development that bypasses citizens is a sham. There is no need to even compare the boom/burst of the US market to Kenyas.

Old estates to make way for modern blocks

The Kisumu County government plans to use land more eciently by bringing down dilapidated bungalows formerly occupied by civil servants and replacing them with high-rise blocks to accommodate more people
BY SILAS APOLLO

AND ANITA CHEPKOECH
achepkoech@ke.nationmedia.com
or the past 40 years, Samson Chahale has called House No. 80 in Lumumba Estate in Kisumu home. Chahale, who moved into the government-owned house three years after they were built by the colonialists in 1961, recalls the good old days when he considered himself lucky to be living in a permanent house, which few could aord then, while working with the British Council. At that time the houses were well maintained by the municipal council. Then, sometime in the 80s, it stopped maintaining them, leaving the job to individual tenants. That marked the beginning of estates decline. Today, the houses are in a deplorable state. Ms Dolphin Akello, who lives in the estate, complained that there has been an increase in insecurity, with their water meters, water pipes and manhole covers being consistently vancalized. Most of us struggle to replace window panes, patch roofs and do other renovations but the majority, who cannot aord to fence o their units, are forced to buy water since taps, pipes and meters are vandalized every time they replaced, she says. Next to Lumumba Estate is Anderson Estate, a slum that borders some of the biggest and busiest business premises
in Kisumu, including Mega Plaza, which houses Tuskys Supermarket, with Jumia Guest House just across the road. Other estates previously housing civil servants such as Ondiek and Shauri Moyo are in equally bad shape. However, things appear set to change as the county government prepares to take charge of the houses. One of the consequences is an increase in rents. The secretary of Lumumba Estate Residents Association, Mr John Odenyo, said the increase was unfair since it was the responsibility of the government to provide decent accommodation for the citizens. A cow has to be well fed to produce milk; similarly, the council should only charge what these dilapidated houses are worth, he said. The Land, Housing and Urban Development ministry has also rolled out a plan to bring down buildings in estates like Shauri Moyo and replace them with new and modern structures. Kisumu county director of Housing, Mr Ben Osewe, said they want to replace the units with high-rise blocks to accommodate civil servants. The project, which is funded by the Civil Servants Housing Fund, will see the government construct 370 housing units where Shaurin Moyo estate now stands comprising houses of one to four bedrooms. Why would we build a poorlystructured house on a prime piece of land in the city centre when we

can develop a storey building to accommodate double the number on the same land? he asked. We need to redevelop the design of these estates in line with the towns current needs. That is why we are undertaking the drastic measures to remodel the houses, explained Mr Osewe. The construction, scheduled for January, was postponed after residents went to court protesting their eviction. So what happens if one wants to buy these old estates

stand and put up new houses. That, Mr Osewe said, is to be determined in due course to encourage local investors to partner with the county and central government to improve the housing situation in Kisumu. County Council Assistant Clerk Mr Nicholas Okola traces the towns housing troubles to the passage of the Bill on the transfer of functions such as health, education, housing and welfare in 1968, when the government stopped sending grants to the council. That brought the council to its knees as it struggled to pay workers salaries. That is why the council stopped maintaining its houses in 1980 or building new ones, he said. And since there was dire need for shelter due to increased urbanisation, houses would later crop up as informal settlements like Nyalenda and Obunga within the town. In the early 1980s, the Local Government Loans Association would sit with the National Housing Corporation (NHC) to review the amount to be allocated
to every authority, he said. That is when the Kisumu, Baringo and Eldoret social halls, among others, were built. But instead of constructing more houses for these authorities, they built tenant purchase houses, which took over much of Millimani Estate. He said the sector was dealt a major blow in 2000 when the Local Authority Transfer funds, was apportioned to local authorities based on the population census of 1979, without assessing the level of statutory debts. Of course, most authorities were caught up in the mess of unpaid debts to the NSSF and NHIF, including Kisumu, whose gure could not be ascertained due to massive corruption then, he said. That is when a policy of debt swapping was adopted, whereby councils that could not repay their debts would give up property of the same value to the National Housing Corporation. That is how we lost estates like Arina, Ofafa, Ondiek and Millimani to the National Housing Corporation, he said.

Shared toilets pose a major problem, but where are public health inspectors?
BY WILSON MANYUIRA
wilsonmanyuira@yahoo.com
AND MORAA PIUS

moraa13@gmail.com A REPORT released last year by the Ministry of Health and Sanitation revealed that over 21 million Kenyans use shared toilets regularly. Among these, more than half get infected with diseases and infections of various degrees, and this is causing a burden not only to them, but also to the economy. The World Bank reports that most of the Kenyans who use shared toilets, or who have none at all, live in rental houses, slums or in the villages. Sadly, according to DrJackim Nyamari, a public health lecturer at Kenyatta Universitys School of Public Health, little has been done to enforce the Public Health Act toilet guidelines for rental houses, which seeks to promote hygienic practices. Judging by these statistics, says Dr Nyamari, there must be something wrong at the Public Health Department. These damning gures should have prompted health inspectors to act, but I have hardly seen any stones turning. With the current boom in the real estate sector, where new residential houses keep sprouting up all
over the place, Dr Nyamari says he is surprised to see a oor with more than 10 households sharing one toilet, yet the law demands between three to four households per toilet. So, what should you look out for when renting a house with a shared toilet? The rst thing, says Dr Nyamari, should be suciency of water, proper ventilation and presence of hand-wash basins. Also, look out whether the tiling, where available, is smooth enough to aid easy washing, but ensure it is not too smooth on the oor as it may get a bit slippery. Also, check the design of the toilet seat or bowl itself as it may make all the dierence between cleanliness and absolute mess. For houses that use insanitries (shared toilets), we normally advise against use of sit-on toilets as it is harder to keep them clean compared to the squat type, says Dr Nyamari. Sit-on toilets are the number one agents for faecal transmissions, and this small fact is important because most people are not cultured to use them properly and might not be able to keep them as clean as is required. If your shared toilet is equipped with such a facility already, do not panic. Enhance your safety by ensuring regular cleaning of the bowl and laying tissue paper
THE RISKS
Are you a real estate developer? If so, it is good to be less business-minded and care about your clients health when putting up your residential structure. Rather than just give casual consideration to toilets, advises Dr Jackim Nyamari of Kenyatta University, be more conscious of the health of your clients and wary of the hazards that poorly designed and built insanitries would bring. And, to tame the agrant abuse of the law, public health inspectors should not sleep on their jobs and must follow up to see legal recommendations are implemented from the planning stage to the last activity of building the house. A common health hazard caused by faecal transmission is chronic diarrhoea, which hinders child development by preventing absorption of essential nutrients, aecting development of the immune system and hindering proper absorption of vaccines, which cause drug resistance.
on the seat when using it. Ideally, a toilet should not be shared by more than 20 men or, in the case of women, more than 30, says Dr Nyamari, adding that a household in a rental house is normally assumed to have four people, and that the assumption is used to arrive at the three-to-four household guidelines. This, he says, is entrenched in public health guidelines, but laments that, even where there is blatant violation of the regulations, little is done to bring the culprits to book. For instance, all these food outlets in Nairobi are supposed to have their own independent toilets and ablutions blocks, but do they? he asks. Sub-standard hygiene in insanitries attracts insect vectors which transmit most diseases. Worse still, you can get infected from the bar soap you wash your hands with, and that is why liquid soap is recommended. Of importance, Dr Nyamari explains, is availability of plenty of water for cleaning, washing hands and ushing toilets. According to him, an individual needs to use about two to four litres of water per ush for the waste to be pushed all the way to the sewage. As such, he says, water should be sucient at all times as poor supply brings that pungent smell that is neither good for your health nor your nose.

Bring the seaside feeling to your home

Cost and distance might make it dicult to go to the coast for a holiday, but you can create a summer getaway without leaving town

your linen revolution on your seat by making temporary slip-on seat covers in the same fabric for your sofas. This will allow you a mini-renovation without breaking the bank. To give the seats some colour, decorate them with some scatter kikoy cushions in dierent hues. Against the white seat covers and drapes, they will make your room look bright yet understated. Chances are that your master bedroom is hard to re-decorate due to the mix of linen, paint and other accessories. But dont despair; there are ways you can bring the sea to your boudoir. First, get a simple blackand-white picture of a seascape and mount it above your headboard to inspire tranquil images of the ocean. Also, If the rest of the room is mostly decorated in neutral tones, especially your bed linen, you can get away with adding a turquoise throw across your bed. Many Kenyan coastal holidays are not complete without some Swahili cuisine. To evoke culinary memories of a coastal holiday, use good old lesos. Use one to make an apron, another to make a fabric shopping bag and a third one to make some oven mitts. Be sure to complete the look by placing three mbuzis (wooden stools that double up as coconut graters) on the side of one wall. If you have a little one, remember to child-proof the stools desserts. A great way to keep your family organised and still in the summer mood is to keep a pack of summer essentials like sunglasses, sunscreen, flip flops, sandals, swimming costumes and drawstring bags on your main entryway in a simple but eye-catching way. First, upcycle an old wooden bench and simply ask your fundi to paint it in white, but make it look weathered by oxidizing the wood with vinegar rst. Next, mount a set of four or more simple silver hooks just above the bench. Thereafter, hang a corresponding set of woven hats in dierent sizes, preferably from biggest to smallest, on the hooks. Use a woven tray to store those summer essentials and complete the look by putting some blue soapstone sh sculptures on the basket. Start your bathroom re-do by replacing your ordinary towels with striped nautical towels; navy and white is always a great combination. Next, accessorise with some green or ocean blue candles. Last but not least, add some coloured (preferably blue or turquoise) apothecary glass bottles on your bathroom shelf; to make them really beachy , ll them with sand and close them with old wine corks. There you go, now Summer will always be here!

Developers move to install

The Kenya Energy (Solar Water Heating) Regulations adopted in 2012 require all buildings that use more than 100 litres of water a day to have solar heaters to cut down on electricty use. New buildings that do not conform with the regulations will not be approved by the authorities
BY ALLAN OLINGO
aolingo@ke.nationmedia.com lthough the Kenya Energy (Solar Water Heating) Regulations 2012 have not ocially come into force, developers are already taking action to ensure compliance. Adopted in 2012, the regulations gave all owners of existing buildings that require more than 100 litres of hot water a day ve years to install and use a solar water heater. Mr Harun Nyamboki of Moke Gardens and Lukenya Hills Apartments said all the units in the rst and second phases of his project had solar heaters in compliance with the new law. My projects are located in an area where it is hot, so I decided to install solar heaters to supplement electricity and also help the homeowners cut costs. We have wired common and security lighting to use solar as well, he said. His views were echoed by Mr Chris Gachiengu, the developer of Chania Gardens in Thika, who said it will be a waste ot time embarking on new developments without incorporating the new law. Using solar energy in the most ecient way to save on power. Our development is in an industrial town and with occasional blackouts, solar energy will relieve homeowners of the inconveniences they would experience, he said. Mr Gachiengu said that solar energy is commonly used for domestic heating and lighting because of it is cost eective and cheaper than other forms of energy. Mr Philip Kimasi, a renewable energy consultant, said it is cheaper for those building houses now to include a solar water heater during the construction than to start trying to accommodate it in 2017, when the regulations become law. We have seen a surge in the electricity needs of Kenyans and being a tropical county, we can supplement these needs with solar energy. The regulations will ensure that the grid is well supplemented. The residential sector in Kenya consumes about 820 GWh of electricity annually, putting a strain on the power infrastructure, he says. According to the regulations, the solar systems should cover at least 60 per cent of the buildings annual hot water demand. The Energy (Solar Water Heater) Regulations 2012 stipulate that electric power distributors or suppliers shall not provide electricity supply to premises at which an SWH has not been installed in accordance with these Regulations . Those who do not comply with the regulations can be ned up to Sh1 million or serve time in prison. Premises exempted from the regulations are houses with technical limitations such as high-rise buildings, premises that are supplied by co-generation, or buildings that cover hot water demand using renewable or green electricity. Last week the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) threatened to take legal action against property developers that have failed to incorporate solar systems in their new developments. According to Robert Oimeke, the commisions Director, Renewable Energy, many new buildings that are coming up are not complying with this regulation. We are working with Kenya Power not to connect any new buildings to the grid until they comply with the regulations, he said. Mr Oimeke said those who own buildings put up before the regulations were passed in mid-2012 have until May 2017 to install solar power systems on their property. The law is not limited to residential houses but includes public institutions like schools, hospitals and commercial buildings that
English Point Marina granted Kenya Vision 2030 project seal

THE VISION 2030 Delivery Board has awarded the English Point Marina the Vision 2030 Private Sector Flagship project status in recognition of its support for the attainment of Vision 2030. English Point Marina is set to upscale the East African coastline as well as position Kenya as a key tourist destination. In addition, it has has been providing solutions to challenges identied as Vision 2030 pillars including employment and wealth creation, social development and provision of housing. The Sh5 billion, 5-star marina situated on a 4-acre beachfront with full access to the English Point creek is expected to oer a range of facilities, including 96 apartments, eight penthouses and a 26-room hotel. Further, the marina will attract yachts, providing an opportunity for sports tourism since it plans to host international sailing and shing competitions. Speaking while receiving the project seal, English Point Marina Director and Proprietor Mr Alnoor Kanji noted that the signing of the MoU would set a great precedent towards positioning Kenya globally as a major investment hub and a key tourist destination. We are delighted that the Kenya government has recognised the English Point Marina as a Vision 2030 project as it is, indeed, in line with its national long-term development blueprint that aims to transform Kenya into a newly industrialised, middle-income country providing a high quality of life to all its citizens by 2030 in a clean and secure environment. As part of the MoU, the two parties will implement mutually benecial objectives that promote not only their shared ideals but also those that market Kenya as the most favorable investment destination in sub-Saharan African and around the globe. With the Lamu Port project, the Dongo Kundu by-pass, the standard gauge railway project, mining, the oil and gas explorations amongst other major projects, the marina will provide ideal accommodation for the numerous investors who will ood the country in search of business opportunities. Kenya is one of the fastest growing economies in the continent currently. More contemporary developments will be required to meet its changing tastes and increase in the middle class, said Mr Kanji.
solar water heating. Solar thermal technology can be used for heating water and Kenyans should exploit this instead of using electricity in their showers, says Kiptum.
Features to consider when choosing a solar system

Mr Ohad Lavi, the Managing Director of Energood (EA) Ltd., a company that imports solar water heaters from Israel, said it is important to calculate the amount and type of water a client uses before installing a solar heating system. The best systems are tted with electric back-up for days when there is inadequate sunshine. A system that is too big will not only be more expensive, but when you need to use back-up power, it will consume more electricity, he explained. Regarding the type of water used, there are two types of systems: direct heating (open loop) and indirect heating (closed loop/heat exchanger). The direct system is more efficient, requires less care over the years and is usually cheaper to install. However, it is designed to work with treated or soft water. If you use borehole water that contains salts or alkalis, the system will not last as long as it should, so it would be better to use a closed loop system. Both systems should serve the customer for 15-20 years, said Mr Lavi. A typical installation should take one to two hours, with the tank and panel being placed on the roof and connected to the houses water and electricity supply. Many use PPR pipes to connect the tank to the panel, but these pipes cannot withstand very high temperatures, so it is better to use copper pipes, as required by international standards. PPR pipes can easily leak or burst when temperatures are high, he said. One important factor to consider is whether a manufacturer oers a warranty. Many distributors go for manufacturers who give 5-10-year warranties, but it is important
use more than 100 litres of water a day. We want to see property developers and architects incorporating solar energy systems when designing new buildings. We are also creating awareness among owners of older buildings so that they can have the systems in place before May 2017, he said. Mr Felix Kiptum, a renewable energy expert with the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (Unido), said renewable energy is the way to go, especially given that Kenyas climate can support

to conrm if the manufacturer will keep his word. It is also important to ensure that the manufacturer complies with international standards because poor quality systems can be harmful to health, and in some cases, to the structure as well as the environment. You have to go through all these details to ensure that you are getting value for your money. Manufacturers should give their products a serial number, indicate their name, explain the way the system works and the country of origin the bare minimum to meet international standards, said Mr Lavi. It is important to note that most manufacturers will not acknowledge responsibility for a system that does not bear their name. This can create a problem between the client and the distributor. In addition, some manufacturers will not abide by the terms of the warranty if the installation was not carried out in line with their requirements. It is important to know whether a tank has an inner coating, as well as the material it is made from. Tanks coated with enamel are more durable than those coated with epoxy or other materials, and healthier to use. The presence of sacricial anodes (which prevent corrosion) also extends the life of the system and is required by international standards, said Lavi. easily rise above 100c and create high pressure, which can cause damage in the form of leakage or even a burst tank, he explained. The prices of systems dier between distributors, but generally depend on capacity/tank size and sytems collector size of the system. A good system from a known manufacturer should cost between Sh140,000 and Sh200,000, including installation and VAT for a retail client. Ttubes are very delicate and were developed mainly for cold countries; they use indirect heating via vacuum tubes. In Kenya, the phenomenon of tubes exploding as a result of overheating is very common. It is hard to notice at rst, until the system loses efficiency. The tubes are easy to replace, but it involves extra costs. Lavi said that the at-panel technology is designed for all weather conditions and can work directly or indirectly. The panels are tough and do not break easily and usually, there is no need to replace the glass panel. When using at-panel technology, you can install the tank inside the roof and the panel out on the roof, which is better aesthetically, said Mr Lavi Doing such an installation using tubes would be more complicated and expensive, necessitating the use of a pump. In a normal tube system, the tubes are connected directly to the tank, and they are all installed out on the roof.

There was no sign of the enemy boat, which must have turned back after a futile chase. Thank goodness the tide turned! I was exhausted!
