Poleni!
Died on May 28th.....was buried yesterday? Just curious....
They had to wait for Lupita's PR people to clear her schedule ......
What is Kenyan-Mexican?? Kenyan of Mexican origin or Mexican of Kenyan origin? Nimechanganyikiwa.
Her family is from Kenya but she was born and raised in Mexico until the age of 16.
She is born in Mexico until 16 years old. But her family is from Kenya so she is originated from Kenya, born in Mexico.
She is originated from Kenya as her mother and father are born there. But as of Lupita she was born in Mexico until age of 16.
She is 100% Kenyan.She was born in Mexico when her dad was in exile there..they came back to Kenya when she was only 1 year old.she was brought up in Kenya. She went back to Mexico at 16 to study.
Si Matiangi na Kihalangwa wamfukuze huko Mexico kama walivyomfukuza Ndugu Miguna Miguna!
Pengine hawakujua!
"...Waluo waliteswa sana
Kwetu hapa Kenya
Wandugu Kumbe mateso yao
Yakaleta siasa ya vyama vingi."
Baba yake (Nyang Nyong) alikuwa ametorokea nchi ya Mexico baada ya kuteswa na mkristo Toroitich.
Pia, Miguna Miguna alikuwa ametorokea Tanzania kwanza halafu Canada baada ya kuteswa na mkristo Toroitich
Kwanza, Tom Mboya aliuawa July 5, siku ya Jumamosi, 1969.
Robert Ouko aliuawa February 13, 1990
Naye Raila Amolo Odinga alifungwa jela kwa muda usiopungua miaka sita.
Wakati huo wote, watu wengine walikuwa wakiimba kwa sauti ya juu:
"Tawala kenya tawala
Tawala kenya tawala
Rais Moi tawala kenya tawala.
Unaongoza vyema
Unaongoza vyema
Rais Moi unaongoza vyema?????"
Kila saa, there’s always a “Luo” complaining of kuteswa. Just move on, complaining of certain tribes has no value to any life. Your life is in your own hands to drive it the way you want. Why put so much politics into your heart? Complaining forever won’t help you. Your own Luo politicians you die for don’t care about you. After all, these top politicians hangs out together. Your Luo politician doesn’t put the food on your table.
Dada @Sue:
Mimi si Mluo. Nilitaka tu kuwajuza watu historia ya mateso mengi ambayo yamewapata viongozi wa Kiluo katika nchi ya Kenya.
Kama nijuavyo, Waingereza walimwomba Jaramogi Oginga Odinga awe kiongozi wa kwanza wa nchi huru ya Kenya. kama angekubali, Jomo Kenyatta asingalikuwa kwenye uongozi wa nchi ya Kenya.
