By 1990 , Jaramogi Oginga Odinga had already decided to chat his own political path. But as the removal of Moi became urgent, Paul Muite invited Matiba and Rubia to his house, where they discussed the need to partner with Jaramogi Oginga Odinga to build a formidable alliance to face Moi.

According to Muite, they later invited Bishop Okullu and Joab Omino to inform them about the idea. Eventually, a final decision was reached that Jaramogi should be brought in and, if possible, be made the joint presidential candidate after the constitutional reforms. These discussions were taking place without Jaramogi's knowledge.

With everyone now in agreement about Jaramogi, the group decided to approach him and present to him the idea of a future political alliance with him as the presidential candidate. In this regard, Rubia and Matiba met Jaramogi at his private office at Agip House and his company office at Spectra International in Industrial area.

At first, Odinga was sceptical about their genuineness. According to Muite, Jaramogi, after listening to them, asked in a shrill voice, "I am not opposed to a partnership. But do you remember how our first marriage ended?"

This was in reference to the colonial and post-independence Kikuyu-Luo political partnership that ended in betrayal. "Now here again you are suggesting we become one team, what am I going to tell my people?"

Rubia and Matiba, however, assured Jaramogi that they had genuinely decided to support him to remove animosity and as a way of apologising for the bad treatment he had received after independence. Jaramogi fell for it, and an agreement was sealed.

Rubia and Matiba were arrested during the year but released after a year. However, Matiba needed further treatment abroad. As he recuperated in London, a clique of Mt Kenyan politicians visited him and misled him that instead of supporting Jaramogi, he could go it alone and defeat Moi since he was very popular.

Immediately after the amendments to usher in multipartism, the tune suddenly changed as those who had been proposing Jaramogi's candidature discarded the agreement. Muite who was still rooting for Jaramogi's candidature recalled Rubia telling him that political pacts were not laws to be obeyed while Matiba told him "Don't you know, Paul, even those Luos, they will all vote for Ken Matiba, not Jaramogi?"

Nevertheless, betrayal was nothing new to Jaramogi Oginga Odinga. He took it in his own strides and launched his own presidential bid.. Some mount Kenya politicians such as Muite and Gitobu Imanyara decided to stick with him.

In the event they were all defeated as the divided opposition gave Moi a new presidential term on a silver platter. Jaramogi died the following year.

History always repeats itself, and Raila should be very careful with Gachagua's offer of supporting him. Ataoshwa hata kuliko baba yake.

It is not even that Gachagua likes him. He just wants to use him to serve sweet revenge after which he will go back to being the same Gachagua of "bora usiguze morima." Even if Gachagua succeeds in making him president, it will be a government of chaos, worse than the chaos we witnessed in UDA. First of all, Raila likes spreading positions all over the country, while Gachagua believes that communities that vote in a government should milk the cow first by sharing positions 50/50. That's how the UDA used to share positions before the fallout.

A Pastor was at home getting ready to go to Church. Suddenly his wife ran outside to cry, weeping and wailing.

The Pastor asks his Wife.. What happened?
The sad, crying Wife said:
Our son just passed away. They both walked in and saw the dead boy lying on his bed

The wife grabbed him crying that they should not go to Church first because their child in the room was dead. But the Pastor said "We will leave the co**se and we will go to Church we have to put God first!
Let's go to Church!
The Wife was outraged and said:
Our son died and we're going to Church!!?
The Pastor said yes! And they left the already dead boy
On bed.
In the Church the pastor start to preach, the Church was well filled to capacity on that day.

At the end of the Sermon, the Pastor said:
Brethren, I Lost my Son this morning and started to cry.
Everyone was sad by what the Pastor said. When the Pastor returned home with the members, they were shocked to see that God,has brought back their dead child alive and playing! So they all wept for joy and praised the Lord!

DID JESUS CHRIST RECEIVED A FAIR TRIAL?

For centuries, Christians and scholars have wondered: Did Jesus receive a fair trial?

Many Bible scholars and theologians have come to believe that the trial was illegal and unjust. Why? Because there were many irregularities displayed by the Sanhedrin during Jesus’s trial and conviction.

Considering modern legal principles and ancient Hebrew law, the legality of Jesus’s trial is questionable. Why?

1). JESUS'S APPREHENSION WAS ILLEGAL

The night Jesus was arrested, although there had been complaints against Him, no formal charges or warrants were presented for His arrest. The priest and elders came to the scene with the Roman officers simply to arrest him—and privately, so that no one would be able to challenge their actions.

“In that hour Jesus said to the crowd, ‘Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come out with swords and clubs to capture me? Every day I sat in the temple courts teaching, and you did not arrest me.'”~Matthew 26:55

2). THE TRIAL WAS HELD AT NIGHT

This was illegal because it went against ancient Jewish law. Court proceedings were to start at or after sunrise but not past sunset.

But the reverse was the case for Jesus. He was illegally arrested and his trial was held at night. The Jewish leaders broke their own law by doing so.

3). THE ALLEGATIONS AGAINST JESUS WERE UNTRUE

Those who stepped in as witnesses could not provide credible evidence for their accusations. The Sanhedrin listened to and agreed with them, yet by modern legal standards, their testimonies shouldn’t have been admissible in court.

Furthermore, Caiaphas, the high priest, pronounced judgment on Jesus for the crime of blasphemy, not because of a past accusation but because of what Jesus said during His trial. If a crime wasn’t committed until the trial was already in progress, why had Jesus been brought before the Sanhedrin in the first place?

“Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, ‘He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses?'”~Matthew 26:65

4). THERE WAS NO COMMON AGREEMENT ON HIS CRIME

Between the two major stages of Jesus’s trial—His appearances before the Jewish council and before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor—there was no consistent agreement on the charges against Him. The Jewish council first accused Him of blasphemy, but before Pilate he was accused of inciting riots and claiming to be king.

FOCUS ON THE RESURRECTION

Did Jesus receive a fair trial? Logically, it doesn’t seem that way. In fact, His death seems to have been a terribly unjust crime.

However, Christ’s death was no coincidence. Our focus shouldn’t be on whether it was fair or not, but on the result of His death and resurrection—our salvation. The death of Christ, though the result of an unjust sentence, fulfilled God’s master plan to redeem all humanity to Himself.

Let us rejoice and take advantage of the gift of salvation in the death of Christ as we live for Him every day, knowing that He loved so much that He subjected Himself to shame, injustice, and death for us to be saved.

*Copied*

It is better to be called broke and stingy, than feeding an ungrateful hungry ghetto woman or ordinary woman who is using you to take pictures of food at expensive restaurants in order to get validation from other men and women on social media.
Draw boundaries and be a principled man who does not tolerate the insolent behavior of ungrateful people.

Life is full of battles. Not all battles are won by fighting back, some are won by ignoring. Some battles are meant to taint you, especially when you win. You've to choose your battles wisely because if you decide to fight all of them, you'll be too tired to win the important ones. Never engage in battles aimed at bringing someone else down. The fight should be against negativity, not each other. Desire to see everybody win because the top is big enough for everybody and the celebration is better when you've all won.
