Bugatti Veyron Targa 2008 !!!

Raila and Stanley Livondo's Hummer sent many Kenyans haywire out of excitement as the greatest automobile invention of all time, but little did Kenyans know that the Hummer is by far not the most ostentatious or expensive car on earth.For quite some time the Bugatti Veyron has been fetching the highest price tag in the automobile industry and for good reason!

Next year Bugatti Veyron unleashes the Bugatti Veyron Targa at a starting price tag of £900,00, (in this year's 2008 China-Beijing Auto Motor Show the first Bugatti Veyron car to be sold in China cost a whooping $3.6 million US dollars NOW THAT WHAT I CALL EXPENSIVE!!!) The vehicle is expected to feature a removable hard top rather than the






traditional cloth due to its potential,packed with a 987bhp 6.0-L W16 engine and go up to a speed of 217 Miles Per Hour(MPH).It is expected that only 80 vehicles will be manufactured meaning that if you own one,you are among the fortunate few.



The interiors are as per standard top of the range and crafted to the finest finesse!So who will own the first Bugatti Veyron-Targa if that be in Africa/Kenya? Lets watch and see

Kenyan Prison Warders Go On Strike !

Kenya's prison system and criminal judicial system is currently in shambles following a concerted strike effort by all the prison warders in the Country.This follows a failure by the Government to improve their terms of service as promised in 2003.The warders live in inhumane and squalid conditions almost similar to those of the prisoners for whom they stand guard and it seems they have now vowed enough is enough.

This portends great danger to the overall security of the Country as the warders have threatened to release all the convicts if their demands for a salary increment are not met .
Unfortunately the commissioner of prison has met their response with grand standing and threatening that the warders actions are tantamount to treason.He is so far off from the law.He should ask any lawyer as to the essential elements that constitute a treasonable offense or go back for a refresher cause on the law.Being an executor of the law he cannot feign ignorance and there is no excuse to his ridiculous comments.As at now one can only sympathize with the plight of the prison warders who have been neglected over time, have worn out uniforms, share cubicles with their families leading to gross immorality within the camps and barely earn a salary that can sustain any Kenyan in the basic minimum descent conditions.

While the Prison warders arduously fulfill their dangerous and risky vocation at meagre wages, the political elites,M.P's , senior civil servants and Government officials continue to increase their salaries and benefits without any regards to the very departments charged with their safety and security.This is very dangerous .It must have taken a lot of perseverance and forbearance for this members of the disciplined forces to resort to downing their tools.Hence the Government ought to consider their plight as a matter of urgency!

Mother's Day in Africa

Mother's day as celebrated in the west is not so popular or significant in Africa.Perhaps this is because of scanty information as to its origins and significance(a lot of religious holidays have cropped into Africa from the west of late and many conscientious Africans are treating this holidays with extreme caution).

While indeed it is good to acknowledge ,reward and give special attention to the priceless effort and sacrifices made by our mothers towards our well being on the other hand conscientious Christians must watch that in participating in any event they do not have sharing /fellowship with works of darkness or belial (2 Cor 6:14-17) and this is manifestly true with respect to mothers day considering its origins as stated in Wikipedia see also http://www.theholidayspot.com/mothersday/history.htm .That is manifestly the truth about holidays that sometimes we are so quick to embrace because of what we perceive to be the meaning behind it but failing to acknowledge its roots or what the scriptures say .As it is most Christians treat the Bible as a buffet menu,they only pick what they like-me-ism and reject what they feel they cant comply with!What a shame!
