Difference is, I CAN spell whose as well. Ask the road photographer to spell the CEASE he meant. Big difference. Can’t compare typos to consistent massacre of the language.

THE FOOL REVEALS HIS CHARACTER THROUGH HIS MOUTH.
Proverbs 18:2 A fool does not delight in understanding but only revealing what is in his own mind.
Proverbs 18:6 A fool’s lips bring strife and his mouth calls for blows.
Proverbs 18:7 a fool’s mouth is his ruin, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
A fool lives in their own world. Your world is irrelevant. Your perspective or viewpoint means nothing. This reveals itself in their body language as well as the things they say and do. They insist their opinion is the only right one. Their way, the only right way. When Proverbs says their “lips bring strife and their mouth calls for blows,” that means they stir up emotional chaos and confusion that “calls for blows” with the things they say and the way they say them. In other words, the person dealing with the fool often has strong feelings of wanting to box them between the ears. (Hey, I didn’t say it. God did.)
For some of you this will be a huge relief. This doesn’t mean we should box a fool between the ears, but it does mean that God understands and acknowledges the reality of how we can feel at times in our interactions with our fools.
He “gets” that crazy, confusing, chaotic feeling. I believe He is compassionate toward those who are stuck dealing with a fool on a regular basis. You may not get any compassion or understanding from anyone else, but I promise you’ve got it from God.
We all behave foolishly at times, and it often follows on the heels of an interaction with a fool. We hate our sin, and we work toward eradicating it from our repertoire of behavior. But a fool continues unrelentingly in his foolishness without ever truly confessing or repenting. For them, it’s a chronic problem. That’s the point of the last verse above. His mouth actually brings about his ruin and snares his soul. This is tragic.
4. THE FOOL CREATES CHAOS AND DEVALUES YOU.
Proverbs 29:9 When a wise man has a controversy with a foolish man the foolish man either rages or laughs and there is no rest.
Rage is anger, and when they laugh at you, call you silly, goofy, ridiculous or something similar, they are scoffing at you. Both of these behaviors demonstrate they are devaluing and dishonoring you as a fellow human being made in the image of God. Your feelings and thoughts are insignificant because you are insignificant to the fool.
Proverbs 26:11 Like a dog that returns to his vomit is a fool who returns to his folly.
A fool will keep repeating their foolish behaviors because they refuse to accept feedback and see their behavior in its true light. They deflect all responsibility onto others. This in itself creates much of the pain you find in your relationship with a fool. No controversy is ever solved. There is no “meeting of the minds” because your mind is as nothing in the mind of the fool. There is no closure in any discussion because the conversation always ends the same. Your fool is right and you are wrong. (Just in case you forgot.)
5. THE FOOL CONTROLS OTHERS THROUGH ANGER.
Proverbs 29:11 A fool always loses his temper.
A fool is unable to control their emotions. They will often even deny they have negative emotions because they are right and trust their hearts. Their angry behavior may be overt or covert. We all recognize overt anger, but here are some examples of covert anger: irritability, withholding information, questioning what you say, arguing, disagreeable, rolling eyes, scoffing, mean looks, silent treatment, refusing to answer questions, pretending not to understand, criticizing, accusing, and blaming. Covert anger is very difficult to pin down or prove, but if you are around someone like this on a regular basis, you know how it feels to be treated this way. Over time it destroys who you are and damages your soul. It causes emotional trauma that takes years to heal from.
This is exactly the kind of thinking the first mbuloti thief kenyatta and moi relied on to perpetuate their looting and daylight robbing of Kenya’s resources. Kenyan resources are being looted, people losing jobs, people dying and leaving every Kenyan with serious debt to pay in amounts which most Kenyans have never even had in their accounts, and when questions are asked this is the best you can say?!
So now that someone is against the people you support they have become traitors to the nation of Kenya?
Kama hamtaki kuwa opposed by other Kenyans, you can secede and form uthamakistan. I’m very sure all the other Kenyans will vote enthusiastically to grant it.
I am against sabotage not against demonstration and other rightful and constitutional ways to get answers but why sabotage something that will benefit mombasa region and kenya in general? When the sgr gets to kisumu in few years, how will uthamaki alone benefit? Now you are here waiting for me to play the uthamaki card.
Before you try to educate me on looting people dying and losing jobs, Kindly look first at who is pointing fingers. joho? dude please. Did he attend uthamaki school of financial wizardly? If so i will play your uthamaki card.
You know very well he is a politician. Not everything he says he will do he will actually do and this being an election year, he might just be rabble rousing.
Considering the issues those two have, don’t you think the attack is aimed at macho nyanya and not the project itself?
By questioning where money disappeared to, is it that the project itself swallowed the money, or is it people around the president who pocketed the money?
By Sultan asking where the money went to, will that mean he is uprooting the SGR to stop it from achieving its aims?
Again, this is an election year and macho nyanya fighting Our Sultan made Joho prominent. Did Joho actually say he will uproot the railway, or will he crash the party to demand for accountability?
By Sultan crashing the party and asking for accountability (hehehehe), will that stop SGR from achieving its intended goals?
And you wonder why we are stuck at 6% growth rate with high unemployment rates and the poor getting poorer, governors do nothing but politicking and benchmarking, Joho should be busy crafting ways to take advantage of the new, faster trains.
Arguing with them.
