A THING ABOUT MONDAY MORNINGS
Moi University Press Club, The 3rd Eye
Weekends have varied connotations for different people. Some see it as a chance to unwind after another insanely busy week. Some see it as an opportunity to attend to church, see family upcountry, or about town. Some think it's time to get a lay and have a wonderful time out here.
We have no business with people who go home or to church today. They're basically doing the right thing, and no one writes about doing the right thing anymore. Let's just focus on the perverted type who needs to be laid or do something 'interesting.'
Monday morning has a surreal quality to it. Something enigmatic. Something ostentatious. Something inconceivable. Faces have several expressions: smiles, simpers (that sheepish smile), grins, indifference, implacability, and so on. Women will have various hairstyles, great skin, and a glow about them that is fairly revealing about their excursions.
Monday mornings have a certain tone to them. Over the weekend, you can tell who did what to whom. You can tell who had a good weekend from who didn't. Just look at their expressions; those who appear typically irritable did not get the s*x of their lives that they had so eagerly anticipated the previous week. Those with sunny dispositions must have screamed the names of s*x gods in some hotel or in their yuppie partners' apartments.
So, if you're sitting in an office or class and the woman next to you appears busy and concentrated but with a satisfied look, she's definitely ruminating over the fantastic weekend experience. And ladies can act as if nothing has happened.
A weekend without a good lay is incomplete, unless she is inconvenienced by the monthly bad days. By Friday afternoon, they have disconnected from their workplace or school. They'll be grinding their asses against men's groins in nightclubs and restaurants on Friday night.
We gaze at cleavages every day of the week, some of which are not worth revealing. Every day of the week, we are presented to a variety of bottom shapes, some of which are truly hideous and an eye pain. Every day, we are served thighs, some of which are good but bony, or stretch marks that are so monotonous they hurt. It's really awful. I wish women could be more empathetic in all they do. We're sick of these obvious and brash displays of s*xuality.
However, on this cool Monday, we are back to school and class. Everyone is engrossed in distant memories that are now disappearing. I can envision that 'haki Mike ni mzuri' or 'that was one hell of an or***ms' expression. It makes little difference to guys. Because I can't recall the last time time was an issue for us when it came to s*x. It is time for IT on any day of the week.
PROF. GEORGE MAGOHA TRIBUTE
By: MBOTO HARRY IVAN.
Jacob Aliet, a renowned author, once wrote that among the Luos, mourning of the dead is not just a matter of dabbing away tears in dignity and putting on grim expressions as you reflect upon the life of the departed. Mourning for Luos is a full frontal, loud, spectacular dirge that involves flying mucus projectiles, loud wailing, spraying saliva, tears streaming down faces, head movements, wild eyes, gestures, horn blowing, speaking in tongues, asking the deceased why they departed and adornment of flamboyant mourning regalia. These were the scenes last Saturday at Umiru village in Yala as we laid to rest the former Education CS Prof. George Magoha.
Prof. Magoha's burial ceremony went down at Maseno University Odera Akang'o Campus in Yala, Gem Constituency, a university that the prof is credited for championing its establishment.
As early as nine in the morning, the massive white tent was already packed to the gills with individuals from all walks of life. Up until the grounds were full, more people were still flooding in with each passing minute. Hundreds of residents outside the fence who were not fortunate enough to be allowed entry into the university area craned their necks in the hot sun in an attempt to get a sight of the burial proceedings.
Drivers plying the Luanda-Busia route had a rough day, as vehicles lined the road on both sides for more over two kilometers along the road, causing a traffic snarl up.
As the hearse carrying the professor's body gently pulled into the compound, Starehe Boys Centre and School Band screamed out sensational melodies.
The arrival of retired President Uhuru Kenyatta sparked the crowd, which spontaneously burst into an ecstatic applause to welcome the man they had become fond of since his 2018 handshake with the area's political powerhouse Raila Odinga.
The best show of the day was however saved for the most prominent son of the soil; Raila Odinga himself. And he did not disappoint.
Armoured with a shield, a spear and a flywhisk, the arrival of the ODM party leader almost caused a commotion. The crowd went wild and all activities came to a brief halt as Odinga performed Sigweya, a traditional luo ritual for mourning prominent people in the society.
Accompanied by area Governor James Orengo, Odinga's grand entry left Education CS Ezekiel Machogu off the hook, as he was cut short in the middle of his speech. President Ruto and his deputy Gachagua however skipped the event, were represented by ICT CS Eliud Owalo.
Prof Magoha was a hero according to the residents of his Yala hometown. Omore, as he was locally known, championed for numerous educational reforms in the area. He is credited to have spearheaded construction of two state-of-the-art three storey student hostels at the nearby St. Mary's School Yala.
In this sweltering February heat, Prof Magoha would have been making door-to-door checkups on form one students yet to report to secondary schools, calling their principals to admit them as government works on a reliable bursary scheme.
As David Osiany would say, impact immortalizes a man. Magoha's rich history and impeccable impact will outlive the pain of his death. The grave may swallow his giant frame and take a way his tough speech, but never will it swallow his deeds. He was a highly impactful patriot, a memorable human, a fighter, a truth seeker, a brilliant surgeon, a revered educator, a skilled technocrat and a paragon of excellence. Magoha will be missed dearly. Ryi Harvan

โI want to be a doctorโ should be included in the 1000 wishy-washy things. The phrase has been badly misused by practically everyone at some point while growing up. Me notwithstanding. In fact I used to think nurses were doctorโs wives. If my dream of being a doctor slinging a stethoscope around my neck didnโt come to fruition, I would have settled for marrying Steve, a class two friend who also wanted to be a doctor and easily become a nurse!
There was an assuring calmness that came with just blustering that medical dream without any slightest self-awareness and sense of what careers actually meant.
At around age twelve, I got an inkling of how the world works and not only was the body changing but also my mind on career interests. At that age, I wanted to badly become be a journalist. I would watch Mwana Hamisi Hamadi and Victoria Rubadiri and theyโd mirror me. I reckon, I would be the only teen who would watch the news at nine in the morning, suffering through stock market updates and political discussions just to get to Johnson Mwakaziโs โDo It Nowโ segment.
On this career discovery journey, as an older teen in high school, you become more of a realist and set sights on an achievable goal. Your parents start giving advice on what you can do after high school; the โmarketabilityโ of the course being the main concern. Around that time, we used to do peer teaching, and teaching Chemistry to my classmates gave me such a rush. I was queen of the periodic table and hearing my friends praise me for being able to explain stuff got me over the moon. Naturally, I wanted to be a teacher from then on.
However, persons of interests that is my parents and teachers started poking their noses into my academics. They felt like they had an opinion. I recount my C.R.E teacher saying, โWe want a doctor from you.โ The English teacher on the hand side, was more supportive of my teaching quest, and she said Iโd make a good professor someday- knock on wood.
Just right before the KCSE exams, we were just given a list of KUCCPS courses and universities and taught how to calculate cluster points- go figure. Without proper guidance, we set our goals on schools and courses with nothing but hope. I didnโt like how the school system carried out this. Albeit that, I chose Pharmacy as first choice and Nursing as the last port of call, if worse came to worst.
The unlikely came to pass as I ended up qualifying for nursing.
Six months into nursing school and I could tell it wasnโt a good fit. I was really struggling with my classes and couldnโt make head and tail of anything. Nothing prepares you for the transition from coasting through your studies to having to actually struggle to keep up. That wasnโt the only thing though; I couldnโt imagine my future working in a hospital. Everything looked so bleak and dreary at that point.
When I went home one weekend, my parents and I were talking about some issues and I just broke down and started crying hysterically. I was under so much pressure and I had no idea how to handle it. Exams were around the corner and I wasnโt in the least prepared. We talked about the possibility of me changing the course to something more suitable. They asked me what I wanted to do and without hesitating, I said education.
Fast forward to three years later, and Iโm finally doing something I enjoy. The road has had its bumps. Everyone wants to give you advice and tell you how youโve made a mistake and how a degree in nursing would have opened up opportunities. But for me, itโs the ability to look forward to my future, the ability to pursue other interests like media and writing because the coursework is not too demanding, and the ability to chase my dream of becoming a professor.

The worldโs biggest and worst deception is that we are all born free and that our only obligation is to seek happiness and material riches. Shockingly, happiness is a sham for over 99 percent of the worldโs population.
Of course, life offers you moments of happiness. That affair you have when your boyfriend offends you and you get away with it. It may be the first drink of a devilishly cool, crisp lager on a scorching Tuesday afternoon, after finally earning some well-deserved salary ( read HELB loan). It can be the shocking beauty and sweetness of ice cream when you have craved it for some time. Inevitably these happy pockets are turned inside out by waves of sadness. This would be triggered by minor irritations that can be avoided such as banging your toe against a bedside, pay Sh 50 for a rotten or unripe avocado, get invited to a useless WhatsApp group and have a next door neighbor blasting Zuchuโs songs which eventually build up and can cause your blood pressure to rise. Adding to this are those unavoidable moments that leave you all pi**ed off like Traffic, a poor relationship, awful s*x, bad food, bad friendships, bad books, bad movies, nasty relatives, and a boil in the incorrect crevice of your body or a hangover you expected when you bought another round of cheap whiskey to go with the finer whisky you were drinking.
In some way, weโre all trapped. Life is a huge trap. External and internal traps exist. Youโre stuck with that horrible boy/girlfriend and others who say, โCanโt you just walk away?โ Itโs not as simple as you believe. Not everyone has the emotional strength and resources to do what you did. Also, situations vary.
Youโre stuck with your bad body shape. Maybe you can get in shape by working out. However, summoning mental resources to work out or resist that luscious goat rib is no longer a chore. So, are you giving up? Being painfully conscious of your limited options gives you the ultimate freedom to select what irritates you, what works for you, and what you can live with.
You can control how much your darling irritates you, how much your family can interfere with your affairs, and how much a course mate can irritate you.
The majority of people who donโt know how to deal with these are the most frustrated in life. Because they believe you can control your life. If you ever learn anything, it is that we are obligated to something else. The government, our jobs, our relationships, our families and our duties.

A class rep limps, sometimes crawls so that the
classmates can walk. The role deems them an omniscient god and us the awestruck followers.
They have a cornucopia of chores. Gracing a
Lecturerโs wallpaper might be one of the innumerable
tasks as kenyans on twitter came to realize. This is after
a picture was doing rounds on the social media alleys of
a lecturer sharing his laptop screen during a PowerPoint
presentation. Emblazoned on his wallpaper, was a pretty girl purpoted to be a class rep. As most of tweets
would conclude that was probably her sure ticket to a
first class or the prosaic partnership between the lecturer and class rep had changed course. A hospice care had
sprouted possibly. Away from the happenstance, what
really does it take to be a class rep?
Our class rep Mike downed his tools earlier last
week. Though not on a six figure salary, he tendered
his resignation like a Civil servant. In a country where
the poor either fall behind or get pregnant, the celebrities either become athletes by chasing clout or adding a
politician title in their Bio. Mike had decided to take the
big step and vie for the member of County assembly for
the Kanyamkado ward where he hails from. He deferred this semester and off he sauntered armed with an
arsenal of promises, and youthful vigor. We as a class
bade him Ciao and good luck in his political ambitions.
Totally oblivious were we of his irreplaceablility. We were not half witted kids that needed checking
up but he had been our domestic manager. Days later,
It started with slight tremors in form of a missed single
class. Then it blossomed to no classes, no assignments
submissions and the ever lively class WhatsApp group
resembling a mourning vigil. By midweek it was a full
earthquake.
Chances were even a richter scale wouldnโt be able to
measure our angst...

Kenyaโs Political Scene Ahead of 2022 polls
By Joseph Ndirangu
With next yearโs polls around the corner, politicians are taking positions on the political arena in preparation to battle for lucrative seats. As president Uhuru's tenure comes close to an end, interested parties running for the seat are already making moves to secure the seat. Political parties have been registered with the registrar of political parties; Ann Nderitu confirming that over 100 parties exist. Within the ruling Jubilee party, tension has risen after the Deputy President and his allies declared their affiliation with the UDA party. In an empowerment tour in Westpokot County last weekend, the Deputy President publicly declared that UDA will be his political vehicle come 2022. Different political factions are expected to be in play with three alliances are already in place: William Rutoโs Hustler Nation, One Kenya Alliance, and the upcoming ODM and Jubilee coalition. The Jubilee party influence continues to wane despite of spirited allegiances in two camps: Tanga Tanga and Kieleweke. Although Tanga Tanga are on their way to the UDA party, they are bound to Jubilee by law as the Political Party Act only allows elected members to shift to other parties six months to the next polls. The Hustler nation, led by Deputy President is set with their bottom-top approach in the economy. William Rutoโs camp continues to expand as they are consistently making lauds with other camps. He is constantly
unveiling new members and holding meetings at his home in Karen. This week has been productive for the Hustler Nation with the Kiambu Women Rep, Gathoni Wa Muchomba ditching Kieleweke and joining Tanga Tanga together with Ruiru MP King'ara and Nakuru East MP Simon Gikaria. Tanga Tanga in welcoming the new members, stated that Jubilee party is drawing its last breath since more than three-quarter of Jubilee partyโs members will be migrating to UDA. A deep seated rivalry between the two factions has been witnessed following the results of a series of by-elections. The opposing Jubilee party factions faced one another in mini polls where Tangatanga wing has won by a landslide in Juja constituency, Gaturi ward, Ruria ward and London ward. The upcoming Kiambaa by elections are expected to determine the fate of Jubilee party. As the general elections draw closer, a shift in the arena is to be expected with new formations and alliances. It is said that nothing is impossible in the world of politics, as there are no permanent enemies and friends but only a matter of interests. The BBI offers an avenue for an expanded executive as it offers the position of the prime minister and two deputies and this can help in bringing many allies together. However, the fate of BBI fate hangs in the balance as the fight wages on in the Court of Appeal following the ruling by the high court. There have been calls to revive the NASA coalition. Kitui governor, Charity Ngilu has warned against dissolving of NASA coalition. She believes that if the NASA principles go in separate ways, the DP will be guaranteed an early win. The president is also expected to play a critical role in the succession as it reported he is willing to support one of the NASA principles.
May Easter bring all for you that you hold in your heart for a long time! Happy Easter! from Moi University Press Club, The 3rd Eye
How Emile Smith Rowe has Galvanised Arsenal
By Kinyanjui Ngigi
26th, December, 2020. Arsenal is up against a relatively in-form Chelsea at the Emirates โ a team who have lost only once in their last 7 games. The world of Arsenal fans lit up by the news that Willian Borges da Silva is unavailable due to a Covid โ 19 related complications. However, thereโs a shocker: Gabriel is unavailable too due to Covid โ 19 related complications. Arsenal are torn as to whether the replacement Pablo Marรญ, who hasnโt played a single league minute since June, will be up to the task against a front three of Werner, Pulisic and Abraham.
However, hope was restored when people see Emile Smith Rowe starting on that night. Although he had played only two premier league games his entire life, his impressive performance while out on loan at Huddersfield showed people what he was capable of. Emile netted 2 goals and registered 3 assists, creating 2 chances per game, helping Huddersfield avoid relegation in the championship.
The success happened following a disappointing spell on loan at Leipzig where he barely played because of a groin problem and some growth pains. This season, he has scored a goal and registered 2 assists in 3 Europa league games after coming back from a shoulder injury. All over the internet, there are bubbles of excitement that finally; Arsenal has a player who fits into pockets of space, creating chances for his teammates to score, something that has really been the Clubโs Achilles heel.
That is exactly what happened that night. Emile was playing as a 10 in between fellow wonder kids: Bukayo Saka on the right and Gabriel Martinelli on the left. All 3 were supporting Alexander Lacazette as the central striker. He was constantly drifting between the lines, making himself available. He even got away from his position in order to draw his marker, Ngolo Kante away from position to create space for Saka or Martinelli to run into. Without the ball, he was constantly working hard, trying to win back possession.
He was subbed off on 64 minutes, after registering 2 key passes, one assist and winning 4 of his 6 ground duels. Since then, he has been a natural selection. In the 5 games he has started since, he had one goal and 3 assists. With 10 appearances this year, he has 7 goals and assists, showing just what a breath of fresh air he has been.
In the 17 competitive games of football Emile Smith Rowe has started for Arsenal, they remain unbeaten. The hope is that, he will be fit and available for Saturdayโs big clash against historic Rivals Manchester United. He pulled out of the game against Southapton with cramp because he led from the front pressing, as Southampton are a team that heavily emphasizes on playing out from the back.
Hassenhuttl had clearly instructed his midfielders to drop between the center halves in tandem, as most teams who emphasize playing out do in order to make it easy to link the midfield to the defence. We saw how Emileโs intelligent pressing was effective in such situations. Emile and Lacazette as a front two were very effective at cutting passing lanes which meant they took advantage of the spaces left by one of the two central midfielders which Granit Xhaka then used to give two separate defense splitting passes, one that Lacazette missed and another that Pepe went on to convert for the equalizer
Emile has always been touted as a player for the future, but like his fellow Hale End Graduate Bukayo Saka has shown in recent times, he is already rapidly becoming part of the future. People are already touting him the Croydon De Bruyne, but he needs to work hard until a new Belgian wonder kid becomes dubbed the new Smith Rowe.
HOW SHE WROTE
BY: Njau Wakamiti
It was odd for my neighbor to fire up her speaker and turn up the volume. She had never done this before. Her room has always been like a library: quiet and tranquil. Even odder was the pronounced male voice that lingered on until past 10 p.m. Curfew it seems, is not something that bothered comrades. We are more susceptible to supplementary exams and pregnancies than to corona virus.
The music went on until around midnight when the village went to sleep, or so they thought. They switched off the music and the bed creaked with the weight of their bodies. How do I know this? My bed and hers share the same wall, and given the constructors were not generous with building materials, the wall is emaciated, thin.
Then it began. I was asleep by the time midnight was on its death throes but my roommate was not. He woke me up, told me there about some weird noises. I ignored him but as fate would have it my allergies started acting up and I was sneezing and coughing like a covid-19 patient. Kesses is cold, my people, and my dusty blanket did not help my case. Sleep eluded me the same way reason escapes from the minds of our political leaderโs when it comes to making critical decisions in parliament.
I lazily climbed out of bed and lumbered to the kitchen sink (if you could call it a kitchen) accompanied by the serenade of pleasure. A glass of water and my meds would surely calm my allergies. They did. But what really lulled me back to sleep was the silence that ensued after she gave out one last moan with the crescendo of a final note in an orchestra. And with that was how she wrote.
Donโt get me wrong, it was not the act that was appalling; Iโm a supporter of comradeโs extracurricular activities. Rather it was the fact that the lady was familiar with the sonority of her moaning but still insisted on keeping her speaker off. I mean for Godโs sake, I had a series of classes from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and believe me not itโs almost impossible to sleep when the creaking and scrapping of the bed on the floor, and an interlude of screams of pleasure is your lullaby โ unless you are on the other side of the wall actively participating.
I would be lying if I said that was my first rodeo. Last semester before the upheaval sponsored by corona virus, my former neighbor also liked to switch off her speaker and play us a different kind of music: one that is not made by professionals in studios but in bed by fornicating millennials. Come morning the smug bu**er would walk out her door feeling accomplished for a job well done.
For what really is the purpose of a speaker if not to spare your single dry-spelled neighbors from such torment? So that every time they see you they will not have to remember you by the sounds you were making at night. I hope she had a hell of a time.

Celebrated Tanzanian bongo flava artiste Rajab Abdul Kahali, who goes by the stage name Harmonize disappointed revelers at the Eldoret sports Club when he failed to perform at the โChaget Festivalโ on Saturday night. The Wasafi records musician signed under Diamond Platnumz, had promised to thrill fans during the event that was organized by Chaget Festival in conjunction with Shado Events Initiative. He had urged his fans to fill the sports club while confirming his availability at the event via a video posted on his official instagram account. Despite having flown to Eldoret town on Wednesday for the Saturday event and assuring fans of his arrival through a video doing rounds on social media ,that showed him at the Eldoret international airport accompanied by his team and a bodyguard. The โkwangwaruโ hit maker was a no show at the much anticipated event. The gates opened at 6pm with the advance tickets going for 500 shillings, at the gate 1000 shillings and the VIP tickets going for 2000 shillings. A disappointed fan present at the event revealed that the event turned to a horror show after harmonize failed to turn up. The organizers kept on hyping the crowd until around 12:00 am -1:00 am, when they finally announced that the bongo artiste will not show up to perform. He says that, the crowd became restless and began breaking the chairs as some ladies at the event were raped and the entire venue dismantled. The fans were demanding for refund as they shouted that the organizers had duped them. As the event increasingly became chaotic, the party goers scampered for safety. It was evident that the event would not continue even with the presence of the local artistes lined up to raise the curtain for Harmonize.
