Just days after National Super Alliance (NASA) Presidential candidate Raila Odinga made remarks that the Jubilee brigade has termed as hate speech, hundreds of hate leaflets calling for eviction of certain communities were on Sunday circulated in Kajiado County.
The leaflets called on certain communities to vacate Kajiado County if the former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga wins the August 8 general elections.
Kajiado Commissioner Harsama Kello, confirming the circulation of the leaflets, assured the residents that the government will protect lives and property of those living in the county.
The leaflets that were written in Kiswahili were warning members of four tribes to leave of face unspecified consequences.
“ Onyo!!! Onyo!!! Onyo!!! ….. wote mwatakiwa kuhama Kajiado County kuamkia usiku wa 7/8/2017 vile halivyoamrisha Rais mtarajiwa Raila Amolo Odinga kwenye kikao na viongozi wa kimaasai kajiado tarehe 14/6/2017. Puuza ilani hii na utajuta cha mtema kuni (Warning!! Warning!!...all are required to leave Kajiado County on the eve of 7/8/2017 just like incoming President Raila Amolo Odinga said in meeting Maasai leaders in Kajiado on 14/6/2017. Ignore this warning and you will face consequences),” says the leaflets.
Authors of the leaflets based their warning to an order allegedly given by National Super Alliance (NASA) Presidential candidate Raila Odinga on Thursday at Iloodokilani, Kajiado West.
Odinga is alleged to have talked about land in Kajiado, remarks that were interpreted as having asked non-Maasais not to encroach on Maasai land.
“We are investigating this issue and we will take very serious action against anyone found to be writing these leaflets,”Okello said.
“I also assure any person who has registered to vote in Kajiado not to fear as they wait to cast their votes in August as we shall be very vigilant,” he added.

@Hypocrite.It is wrong to assume that anyone is above the law. MLK said;The arch of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice.My honest advise to Raila is that he should conduct himself in a peaceful manner.Because if he does not,then he will witness the Kenyan and World opinion about him turning sour.Then consequences will follow from that.Any student of history will tell you that there have been very many prominent men and women who have lived to see their ruin.At some point those men and women had multitudes that thought that they were above the law.But in due time the punishments of justice came their way.Let us all pursue Peace.Let us all pursue love and compassion among all the tribes.
You lost me when you quoted MLK. Activists like him, Gandhi were selfless and extraordinary men unlike most african politicians who are sorely driven by power and GREED. Mandela is an exception and that's why he is revered the world over and in heaven too. Or where ever you believe our souls go to after we die.
@shopkeeper.Another way to make the point that I am trying to make is to say that. MLK spent his life advocating for love and justice for all human beings. The ideas and ideals that MLK stood for are also the antidote to inter tribal conflict.Another person who was really articulate on this topic was Bobby Kennedy.Especially on the speech that he gave on April 4th 1968 while announcing MLK's death.This speech was directed at the USA public in 1968.However the contents of the speech apply to the Kenyan Body Politics at this present moment.Here is a copy of part of the speech:
" we can make an effort, as Martin Luther King did, to understand and to comprehend, and replace that violence, that stain of bloodshed that has spread across our land, with an effort to understand, compassion and love.
For those of you who are black and are tempted to fill-be filled with hatred and mistrust of the injustice of such an act, against all white people, I would only say that I can also feel in my own heart the same kind of feeling. I had a member of my family killed, but he was killed by a white man.
But we have to make an effort in the United States, we have to make an effort to understand, to get beyond and go beyond these rather difficult times.
My favorite poem, my favorite poet was Aeschylus. He once wrote: "Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until, in our own de-despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God."
What we need in the United States is not division; what we need in the United States is not hatred; what we need in the United States is not violence and lawlessness, but is love and wisdom, and compassion toward one another, feeling of justice toward those who still suffer within our country, whether they be white or whether they be black.
We can do well in this country. We will have difficult times. We've had difficult times in the past. And we will-we will have difficult times in the future. It is not the end of violence; it is not the end of lawlessness; and it's not the end of disorder.
But the vast majority of white people and the vast majority of black people in this country want to live together, want to improve the quality of our life, and want justice for all human beings that abide in our land.
Let us dedicate ourselves to what the Greeks wrote so many years ago: to tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world.
Let us dedicate ourselves to that, and say a prayer for our country and for our people. Thank you very much.

Except for Ndugu Mwai Kibaki's presidency, Kenya hasn't had good leadership. During Kamau wa Ngengi, Toroitich Arap Moi, and Uhuru Kamau leadership, we have witnessed high level of state corruption,
nepotism, embezzlement of our treasury and many unexplained state sponsored assassinations that have not yet been solved.
Where is Jacob Juma and many other Kenyans who have disappeared during the presidency of Kamau, Toroitich, and Uhuru?
If it is true that Raila said the unfortunate statements above, he should be barred from running for the presidency of Kenya come August 8, 2017.
The people of Kenya must have the courage demand that we arrest, prosecute, and imprison every Tom, Dick, and Harry who was involved the holocaust after the failed election of 2007. Over 1,000 people were killed and yet no one has been arrested or prosecuted for the loss of life! I suggest that we initiate a "Truth & Reconcilliation Committe" that will require Toroitich Arap Moi (1992), Raila (1982), Kibaki (2007), Uhuru, and Ruto (2007) to attend and ask them to tell us what they know about the loss of lives during these years. An open dialogue is necessary in order to bring to a final closure and compensate the victims affected by the initiators of these state sponsored loss of lives.
Long live the New Republic of Kenya come August 8, without Raila or Uhuru as the presidents of Kenya.
Msema Kweli,vipi naweza wasiliana nawe tafadhali?
Jambazi Mwai was a thug like others.He and muuaji Raila ATE all our maize and SWALLOWED it with TRITON/KPC/Kenyans petrol.He was also paid hardsomley by Al Shabaab Parites/terrorists for letting them buy property in Nairobi and Mombasa using ransom money from pirated ships
This murderer a.k.a inciter-in-chief a.k.a cordless cord moron a.k.a
cry baby a.k.a Joshua a.k.a Ojinga Demonic Movement a.k.a O.D.M leader a.k.a my uncle knows that he has already lost the elections and now he is resorting to doing what he knows best - inciting Kenyans so we can rise against each other,maim and kill each other like he did in 2007/2008 looking for the inclusion in the nusu mkeka,nusu mkate Grand Coalition government.
Since then,a lot of water have passed under the bridge and Kenyans are more wiser,knowledgeable and smarter and they can tell an inciter or a political conman when they see or hear one.
He started by inciting the people of Laikipia the other day and now the peace loving brothers and sisters in Kajiado.The same incitement though low key is being echoed by one Isaac Rutto in Bomet county and the larger South Rift Valley region.
Ojinga can fool Kenyans sometimes but he cannot succeed to fool us all the time and that is why today,my family and I have decided that we will not vote for an inciter and a visionless Ojinga but a leader who will preach peace and cohesiveness of our nation.
I will also marshall all my friends,colleagues and family through our ever growing strong organization - KARAO - Kenyans Against Raila Amolo Ojinga - to ask Kenyans never to vote for my uncle in any elective position in Kenya because he is a bad apple in the basket.
Watch this space for names of those politicians that KARAO has also listed as more bad apples for Kenyans.

@MKENYA HALISI- Well said and put down in black and white.
This inciter has homes in Pennslyvania and Massachussetts in the USA and he does not care how much blood is spilt or how many lives are lost via his ego and greed for power.
Ojinga is my uncle and he is an inciter and blood thirsty.We in KARAO a.k.a Kenyans Against Raila Amolo Ojinga will not let him mess with our unity and cohesiveness as a Kenyan people and he will never be President of Kenya - yes,we refuse!
OKUYO HAVE INFILTRATED THE COMMENT SECTION! INTERNATIONAL OKUYOS LIVING ABROAD ARE THE WORST TRIBALISTS!
Ndugu @ Nix Rafael M.
Nakushukuru sana kwa ujumbe wako. Ndugu yangu, najuaje kama wewe ni "jasusi" wa NASA au Chama cha siasa cha Jubilee? Jasusi ni neno la Kiarabu (mpelelezi ) na pia wao hutumia neno jingine ambalo ni sawa na jasusi. Neno hilo ni "al mukhabarat."
Kusema kweli, ningependa kuwasiliana nawe ili tulikomboe taifa letu tukufu kutokana na majambazi ambao wanapora mali ya nchi huku wakijiita " wazalendo." Nakutakia kila la heri kwa mradi wowote unaotazamia kuutekeleza kwenye siku za usoni.
Buheri wa afya!
Does anyone in their right mind expect Raila to apologize or even be arrested ??? Infact, today, Raila just dared the authorities to arrest him ... The only person who had the balls to arrest Raila was Moi ... nobody after that can come close to arresting him ... People claim that Raila has no balls coz Moi chopped them off but I beg to differ ... Raila must be carrying 6 big balls - you know those called maduong ... no wonder he is unbwogable ....
Its nonsense ati nobody in kenya is above the law ...There are 4 men in Kenya who are above our so called pathetic weak laws .. Uhuru, Ruto, Raila and Joho ... anyone else will get their ass locked up in no time ... so this nonsense ati authorities need to investigate raila is a total waste of time ... the investigations will go nowhere and raila will not apologise ... mtado whaaaat ??? Nothing ... move on !!!
