ARMENIAN BROTHERS MAY VIE IN KENYAN ELECTIONS

What if someday while going to your office or farmland you hear from your favourite FM station that the leviathan-styled ARMENIAN BROTHERS have been elected to the Kenyan parliament.You could easily dismiss the propaganda as whimsical. But is it not the same country that our dear brothers-in law to be got state of the art facilities that is afforded only to the mighty power brokers of the government. If it wasn't strange then to call them investors, then it's not strange now to bestow them the MP (mheshimiwa) tag and adorn their fuel guzzling road gadgets with the Kenyan flag.

The blinging "investors" have treated Kenyans to an odd sense of mockery by threatening us and calling us all sorts of names that would have had Martin Luther king turn in his grave only to propose to our daughter later on. As if she was not a Kenyan, the Armenians forgot that the same names they has called other Kenyans equally apply to Wambui and her daughter Winnie, whatever her paternal name is. Our country may be called tolerant at the very least, but what we can't be passed off for is foolishness. As if we don't know who holds power to grant protection and facilities that the Armenians had access to. They could have dined in state house for all we care but their proposed marriage to a Kenyan woman of suspicious parentage and refusal to release the report on their activities in the name of national security is an insult to the public sentiment.
The next thing we may hear is that they have been nominated to serve in the government, or perhaps, elected unopposed from Othaya constituency. They may just be rewarded for their dedicated ambassadorship by appointment to the post of vice president. Standing for an election may be as easy for them as getting a V.I.P card at the airport lounge. After all, when you have visited and dined with the likes of Michuki, raided and crippled media houses the lucy kibaki style, planted a ring on the fingers of somebody's daughter, what better occupation can fit your profile than a mheshimiwa.
The Armenians and the Kibaki family, relatives, or activists (depending on what Winnie calls herself) should respect Kenyans and realize that though we may not be interested in the colour of the offsprings that may be begotten of the upcoming Armeno-Kenyan marriage, we certainly are concerned about the security of our own children. State resources are already far stretched in combating local criminals that we feel very reluctant to fight cross-breed bling criminals.

So much money has been wasted in investigating the activities of these disgruntled non-starters and so much time alloted to just discussing them. They've acquired a celebrity status by the attention the media has dedicated to them at the behest of other issues of national importance. It's time now to redirect that energy and commitment in developing infrastructure (both legal and otherwise) in order to prevent other such thugs from holding our country hostage.
