i mentioned earlier that am the chairman of our area bodaboda. my chairmanship has taken the members places, we are legally registered, we save every month in a certain sacco, individually and as a chama, juzi tulibuy ka plot tukapanda miti to mention but a few.
Now came this person sent by a chief campaigner for a certain Nairobi gubernatorial 2017 aspirant. He wanted for sunnymango help in getting 300 vijanaa in two batches. for what? n for who? when i seemed reluctant nikanunuliwa ka chai nikawa corrupt kama waiguru. didnt mind the fact that he refused to tell me the name of the governor what i wanted was what he wanted us to do and how much he was gonna pay us.
The mission was to go a certain area in nyairofi and change our voting station to that area in preparation to voting for our sponsor in the upcoming nominations.i was reluctant but on remembering that, was it jj kamotho or who said that “even a dog in the right party for that area can win elections?” i agreed to help our still anonymous governor provided he contribute 100k to our table banking n provide lunch n transport which he did through his agents.
then came the D day, at around 0630HRS ndo huyo sunnymango with his first batch of 150 men ready to sell kura zao wakapanda 3 buses. please dont think we r stupid kuuza kura zetu coz mwanasiasa asipokusaidia wakati wa campaign atawahi kusaidia tena? wacha alipe sisi we vote for him akiingia si wote ni kuiba tu kwani watawahi fikiria mambo ya ma youths tena?
Haya tukafika place flani tukapack bus zetu tukaenda in batches za watu kama 10 tukachange our voting station na pia wale hawakua na kura wakachukua.
Only about 30 men were remaining when our presence in that area leaked to the kitongoji duni inhabitants, they came running toward the registration area when i sunnymango nilikua nimeketi nikihudumiwa na mrembo wa IEBC whom it was obvious alikuwa amerushwa kakitu coz what abot 150 youths from a far away village coming to change their station to nyairofi in asingle day? wasn’t that enough for her to raise alarm?
Wakafika nkaskia Jaruo moja imesema,“Hakuna kitu kama io itaendelea hapa!” mawe ikaanza, ndo sisi hao kutolewa mbio, kukutana na wenzetu wametoka kwa basi heading to the station, ndo hao wakapinduka mbio na kuambia drivers wagurumishe magari wakitungoja tupande! tulimanage kuingia bus but iliondoka hapo bila vioo! sasa tunangoja nomination elections. msitupige tafathali coz we have nothing against you tunatafutia watoto,
You used the wrong methodology, choose a middle class neighborhood, the urban poor are vicious in their politics and yet they benefit less from politics.
ha ha ha…kudos @sunnymango …my week will be good…
Sasa mki votia Governor wa Nairobi, nani ata votia wa kwenyu ?? Alafu mkikosa kufanyiwa maendeleo kwa sababu ya Umeffi wenyu mtalalamikia nani ?? Utakula hiyo pesa yake saa hii alafu usumbukane for the next 5 years. Sir, look at the bigger picture. Wachana na ujinga ya kuhongwa . WEWE ni MAEMBE kama jina lako.
i didnt know that! thanks
kura za nyumba ni mingi hawawezi maliza…
hehehe umeshaanza kukula nyama wewe
hakuna maendeleo tunatarajia…hata saa hii hakuna mtu hukula kwa gavana…
Sasa nyinyi hakuna kitu yenyu Nairobi, hata mkikufa hamwezi zikwa langata juu ya mila, si muende mkapigie kura mahali kuna Mali yako.
A typical Kenyan
we dont care who becomes the governor in our area. if the current governor was serious could we have been so desperate?
:D:D:D
Asumbuliwe na nini na hata saa hii anakura boda na allowance ya u-chairman…
kuhongwa wakati wa kura ni miscellaneous income ile haijapangiwa…
Correction: Sunnymango ndio kiwanda cha maembe…kiko pale Makuyu karibu na Murang’a Teacher’s College:)
sunnymango ni mkulima nambari moja, amepanda maua Naivasha, akapanda nyanya Kenol, sasa nasikia ako na maembe Makuyu. soko ya hio zote ni Nairobi so wewe unaangalia tu tumbo yako

just a little civic education; i owe it to my society to try and pre-deconstruct a lie that will be perpetuated several times over in the run-up to Aug, 2017…:D:D:D:D:D
Thank you Sir, I am honoured.
