A reasonable person

Going to work yesterday morning I tuned into Capital FM just in time to catch them talking about the ICC and whether it is a good thing or a bad thing… The guest in the studio explained that we as Kenyans do not understand the rule of law so I was like okay so now?
He paused a question what does the average Kenyan think about the ICC process? By average Kenyan he means a reasonable person explained as the following;
1. Not Runda for they are too rich and elite
2. Not Kibera for they are too poor (I was like WHAT!!!)
3. But the person in the matatu heading to eastlands a person who who wakes up every day works and has the chance to put bread on the table
This got me thinking how many reasonable persons are out there and do “they”? Are you, am I a reasonable person?

It is time to Sing & Unite

It is time to Sing & Unite

28th February a day of peace, unity and kinship – the day we remind ourselves of all the reasons why we must stand together and work together. Towards this day we have called people to sing the national anthem at 1pm. This is a day of reflection on UNITY means to “ME” what I must do to bring unity around my immediate surrounding – Feb 28th is the day we ground the notion that we mouth so easily, that we often times pay lip service to (and then do or say something that works against it) – we bring the notion of unity home to a personal level.

On February 28th Kenyans will come together and unite in the prayer that is the Kenya National Anthem, to celebrate their unity as a people, and to remind themselves that together, they can achieve much more. On this occasion, Kenyans come together, not to protest against anything but to stand for unity.

The idea is simple: Wherever we are, whatever we are doing at exactly 1pm on February 28th, Kenyans from all walks of life, will pause and sing the national anthem, led by participating media houses, church choirs, community choirs, school children, and musicians. Once they have sung all the three verses, they will disperse and continue with what they were doing – only energized by the strong spirit of kinship.

This is an initiative that belongs to Kenyans: aimed at uniting us under the banner of our National Anthem.

The call to action: Sing & Unite!
On the 28th February 2011 the world will watch as Kenyans stand UNITED;
1pm, 1 nation, 1 people, 1 anthem, united in 1 prayer for 1 Kenya

Ni Wakati!
