There is a storm brewing about making this man a Kikuyu elder is that right? Of all places,he will be installed in Ruring'u,Nyeri.Nyeri,ladies and gentlemen was a meeting place of freedom fighters.It was here Mathenge and Kimathi last appeared in public before they went underground even as warrants of their arrests were out;to show no fear and instill confidence of the struggle that lay ahead!
The ceremony is being spearheaded by former Attorney General, Charles Njonjo; Mathira politician, Peter Kuguru and musician, Joseph Kamaru.
I have to admit that these gentlemen have a right to do as they please but this is sacrilege to my city.It is opening IDPs' wounds that have not healed! I mean we are getting along fine but this stretches a little too far! What is your opinion guys on this? Who is next Ruto?
What happened to Kamaru? I like his songs but from now on I might decide otherwise!

Venue booked for Raila fete

Ngii Ndune this issue of Raila been annointed as a Kikuyu elder is the height of ******ity. The Kikuyu community should hang their heads in shame if political marayas like Njonjo and Kuguru can dictate the annointing of our ach-enemy.

How can we stand aside and watch our holy ground of Ruring'u been contaminated and polluted by these morons.

I never thought I would see the day Kikuyus became so impotent. This is sacrilegious. I do not believe in this nonsense that these marayas have a right to do as they please. No, this white man's democracy cannot be imposed on our traditions and cultures.

Our freedom fighters died and sacrificed their lives so as to free us from the yoke of the white man. We are now ready to annoit Raila, a western puppet, as an elder!!!!

I think we had better write off the tribe called Kikuyu and instead substitute it with Ghasias.

I think Dorobos have more self-dignity than us right now!!!


Maskini Hachoki!!!

Does anyone in kyuk.com know how a kikuyu elder is installed? I know about mburi ya kiama and all that, but I have never witnessed a live installation. Come to think of it, I think a Raila installation will be educational/archival as it may be the last one ever.

The imbiciles purporting to install Raila are not themselves Kikuyu elders one cannot confer what they dont have. Everything has a positive side the Ihîîs of Ruringu should go and feast with their equal. muthuri owothe aikare haraya na uhoro uyu tondu ni thahu munene.

Raila can never become a kikuyu elder no matter how installed why? Kikuyu eldership is not by installation it is conferred on one by his community by recognising and respecting him as such. There is no such a thing as installation one can only become a Kikuyu elder by under going the kikuyu rights of passage something Raila is now toold for. Egutuika muthuri wa rika ririku? ni aguranite na mutugo wa gikuyu kuracia, kuguraria na gutinia kiande? Mburi cia athuri ni arutite? inainyui ukai na tinagukundi mugatuonia uhoro. I hihi mundu uyu ni mugimaru.

I dismiss the circus with the contempt it deserves.

Those politicians who retired or rejected by the electorate within the last few decades should always be taken for granted. They've never delivered and i dont expect them to deliver in their retirement. You'll hear other "Njonjos" installing akina Ntimama, Ruto, e.t.c as kikuyu elders. It's not even a wonder to also hear others install the likes of Ngilu, Sally e.t.c as mama kikuyu.
I dont take these "installers and installees" seriousely.

Am heartened by response here.There are still some of us who have not the IDPs and their suffering remember they are not yet out of the woods!
The act of these few individuals is injurious to their esteem and hope and that is all they have for now.

This was in todays (June 19th) D/N Cutting edge.

Before Prime Minister Raila Odinga is installed as a Kikuyu elder, Stephen Kuira of Naivasha wishes those behind the plan could answer a few questions: “Can they tell us if, indeed, we have any Kikuyu elders? And if so, who are they? Where can they be found? Who chose them? What do they do? And, who is their chairman?”

According to Stephen, plenty is known about the coastal Kaya leaders, for instance. He quips: “Mind you there is a difference between elders and tribal chiefs!”

Don’t attend Nyeri fete, Nyagah tells PM
Published on June 24, 2008, 12:00 am
By Joseph Murimi
Plans to install ODM leader and Prime Minister Raila Odinga as a Kikuyu elder continue to draw varied reactions.
ODM Pentagon member and Cooperatives minister, Mr Joseph Nyagah, has joined a group of Raila’s allies from Mt Kenya region who oppose the ceremony slated for next month.
Speaking yon Monday, Nyagah said he had advised Raila not to attend the ceremony that had created uproar in parts of Central Province.
By attending the ceremony, he said, Raila might play into the Kibaki succession politics unfolding in the region that has renewed traditional rivalries between Kiambu and Nyeri.
He said Raila needed to rise above such rivalries since what was important was to deliver on his promises.
"I am among a group of his friends who have advised him against the ceremony. We think it is important for him to work for all Kenyans and to deliver on the promises," said Nyagah.
He said he did not expect Raila to attend the ceremony even though the PM had not commented publicly on the issue since it was floated.
Businessman-cum politician, Peter Kuguru, stoked controversy when he and former Attorney-General Mr Charles Njonjo, announced plans to install Raila as a Kikuyu elder in Nyeri on July 20.

MAYBE HE SHOULD HEED HIS CRONY'S ADVICE AND KEEP OFF!

Committee to make Raila elder formed
Published on July 2, 2008, 12:00 am
By Joseph Murimi
A committee of five elders has been formed to plan and prepare for the proposed installation of Prime Minister Raila Odinga as a Kikuyu elder.
Mr Thuo Mathenge of Taifa Tekelezi lobby group said they were going to pursue their goal no matter how long it took.
He said apart from the team of five elders, every district would provide 20 delegates to attend the occasion that was initially slated for July 20 at Ruring’u Stadium in Nyeri.
Mathenge said the ceremony would be a big step in reconciling communities that rose up against each other after the disputed presidential election.
He said former President Moi, the late Oginga Odinga, Masinde Muliro, Tom Mboya, and the founders of Christianity in Kenya, Lebman and Krapf, were all installed as Kikuyu elders by the community’s forefathers.
"Raila has done a lot more. He accepted to back a Kikuyu for the presidency in 2002 by declaring President Kibaki to be fit for the job and agreed to work with him this year," Mathenge said.
He said by virtue of marriage, Raila was already a Kikuyu elder and that there was nothing wrong in making it official.
Mathenge asked the movers of the plan, politician-cum-businessman, Mr Peter Kuguru, and former Attorney-General, Mr Charles Njonjo, to involve other prominent people.
He said the installation of Raila as an elder had nothing to do with the Kibaki succession wars currently going on in the Mt Kenya region.
The issue of making Raila a Kikuyu elder has kicked off a storm in Central Province with some supporting it while others oppose it.
Among those who have opposed the move is Cooperatives Development Minister and ODM Pentagon Member Joseph Nyaga, who says he has advised Raila to keep off, warning that he may be playing into the hands of those involved in the Kibaki succession wars.
SURELY THIS MATHENGE IS AN IDIOT!
