Everyone Wants Man United to Beat Tottenham, Except United Fans

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Manchester United Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær heads into Saturday’s crunch tie against Tottenham Hotspurs with his head on the chopping board.

Ole has allegedly been given a last chance to save himself after last week’s humiliating 0-5 defeat at home to bitter rivals Liverpool.

It is on the background of this pressure, that most pundits are tipping the Red Devils to beat Spurs at London Stadium. In fact, everyone but United fans (for obvious reasons) want Ole’s team to win this match.

Of course the tipsters are backed by the fact that United have had quite a good record away from home since the beginning of last season, losing only one match in more than 30 on the road (that came in this month’s defeat to Leicester).

United have not lost away to Tottenham since 2018, a period in which they have only drawn one match and winning the rest. On paper, this looks like an easy fixture for the away win and with Triple5bet tipping a United win at 2.48 odds, we say it is something punters should really consider.

However, it is not going to be an easy fixture with Tottenham boss Nuno Espirito Santo also hanging on the thread after a mixed start to the season.

Punters looking for safer options can put their money on both teams to score. The odds for this outcome is 1.59 which is very lucrative considering the fact that United have conceded six goals in four away games.

At 1.73 odds, an over 2.5 scoreline is also very possible. This fixture has always produced goals. Tottenham pumped 6 past United in October last year and the last match between these two ended 1-3 in favor of Ole’s boys.

Other EPL fixtures on Saturday are:

Leicester vs Arsenal – Kick Off 1430

Burnley vs Brentford – Kick Off 1700

Liverpool vs Brighton – Kick Off 1700

Manchester City Vs Crystal Palace – Kick Off 1700

Newcastle Vs Chelsea – Kick Off 1700

Watford Vs Southampton – Kick Off 1700

All these matches are available for betting on Triple5bet, home to the best odds in the Kenyan market. The bookmaker is giving out a 100% bonus for new customers on their first deposit and stake.

If you are an existing client, you know, the company offers a 50% bonus on their first stake of the day. This is a punter’s haven.

Given that Arouca shipped at least two goals in five of the last six league games, we would not be surprised to see the visitors bagging two or more goals. Our experts believe the home team will also bag at least a goal in the match. We are thefore predicting a Goal-Goal outcome.

  • Trabzonspor vs Rizespor – Home win 1.33

Why Sonko And Kananu Battle Will Deny Nairobi A Governor Until After 2022

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

The legal battle between former Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko and Deputy Governor Ann Kananu could deny Nairobi County a substantive governor until after the 2022 elections.

Another whose fate is on the balance is the Nairobi Metropolitan Service because a deed of transfer of functions to the National Government is expected to expire in March next year. This can only be extended by a substantive office holder with the backing of the County Assembly.

While the elections are 10 months away, Sonko’s move to the Supreme Court to stop the swearing in of Ms. Kananu as governor has lifted the lid on a ploy to delay her ascension to power through legal hurdles.

On Monday, the Supreme Court stopped Kananu’s ascension to the seat after Sonko challenged a Court of Appeal decision on Friday that dismissed his case against her assumption of office.

The Court of Appeal declared that the ex-governor has been out of office for more than 10 months hence he is no longer the county boss.

Legal experts have argued that these supremacy battles could lead to the governor’s office remaining vacant until August 9, 2022.

Constitutional lawyer Bobby Mkangi has argued that that Sonko’s appeals have led to litigation suits that continue to delay the selection of a substantive governor.

He noted that Kananu has no option but to wait until the legal suits are done away with and the courts decide the way forward for Nairobi.

Also, there is another pending case at the Appelate court that seeks to establish whether Sonko was illegally impeached. The case is coming up for consideration and determination next month.

Mkangi argued that Sonko’s move to the Supreme Court will buy him time. He added that Nairobi County could go for a by-election if the court finds out Kananu’s appointment was unlawful.

If the court finds she’s in office illegally, then this will give IEBC a chance to plan for a by-election within 90 days even as the Speaker occupies the seat in acting capacity.

Kananu who is acting governor is currently barred from conducting some Executive roles as stipulated in Section 30 of the County Government Act and the Constitution.

Sonko is still hopeful of reclaiming his seat. He told his followers in a video clip shared on his Facebook page to be patient and wait for November when the petition challenging the removal will be heard.

Governor Ongwae Sets Up Special Witchcraft Taskforce In Kisii

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

Kisii Governor James Ongwae has set up a witchcraft taskforce to assist in unraveling the issues surrounding witchcraft murders in the county.

The taskforce, through the County Department of Culture have been given the task to find out and determine the extent of deep-seated superstitions that have seen the elderly murdered on suspicion of witchcraft.

This comes after the recent brutal killing of four women in Marani Sub-County last week after being suspected of practicing witchcraft.

The taskfroce comprises county staff and stakeholders from members of the public and human rights organisations. The group will probe and report back to the governor in three weeks’ time for further action.

While responding to the murder of four women in his home ground- Sindege Mayaka (83), Jemima Mironga (60), Sigara Onkware (62), and Agnes Ototo (57)- the governor said their killings makes no sense.

He said his government will foot postmortem and burial expenses of the four women. He added that if Kisii residents do not protect their senior citizens, they risk losing them on such flimsy grounds.

Meanwhile, police in Marani on Sunday arrested a student who was allegedly abducted by t he suspected witches sparking the lynching of the four women.

Detectives are pursuing more suspects on the run. At least six suspects connected to the lynching are in custody after appearing in court.

Why 224 Polling Stations Might Give Headache To IEBC During Results Transmission

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

According to Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), a total of 224 polling stations might bring headache since they have no network coverage, a move that might disadvantage transmission of results.

CA Director General Ezra Chiloba yesterday told the senate ICT Committee that if no action is taken between now and August, then the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission will be compelled to use satellite mobile phones to transmit from the areas.

Ezra Chiloba said that CA is making all efforts to ensure that most polling stations and centers are covered with either 3G or 4G network.

Submission of electoral results to IEBC headquarters is by law supposed to be done electronically from the polling stations, and was the min sticking point in the 2017 elections, as this was not proved to have been done in many cases due to lack of reliable internet connectivity.

The Supreme Court in the 2017 that nullified the presidential elections narrowed down on 11,000 polling stations, some of them in Kiambu, Murang’a, Kisumu, and other places that generally should have good internet network, and with the IEBC said could not transmit their results forms because of lack of connectivity.

Mr. Chiloba has said 481 polling centers that have 2G network coverage will be upgraded to 3G and/ or 4G network before the polls.

Mot of these 224 polling stations are in marginalized areas. Chiloba said that CA is facing challenges such as insecurity and resistance from the communities in the region in ensuring they are covered.

“You got to Turkana for example to ensure that they have network but the locals will tell you they need water and not network,” Mr. Chiloba told the committee chaired by Baringo Senator Gideon.

He said that due to accessibility challenges, the electoral commission is yet to submit GPS coordinates of 140 polling centers so that they can be covered.

However, Kitui SEnator Enock Wambua asked why the network coverage issue was being addressed late.

“An election cycle is five years in Kenya, why wait until few months before elections to release that some areas don’t have network. Why do I have the feeling that CA is just concerned with the 2022 elections and connecting various parts of the country to network coverage?” he asked.

Nominated Senator Abshiro Halake told Chiloba to ensure that technology will be an equiliser for all the regions ahead of the 2022 elections.

She also expressed concerns why some regions have no network totally yet some regions are set for an upgrade of 3G to 4G.

In as situational brief on September this year, IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati told CA to solve the issue of of 3G internet network, which the commission says only covers 83.6 percent of the country.

However, Mr. Chiloba on Monday told the senators that 3G network coverage now stands at 97 percent of the country.

How Two Teachers Escaped The Wrath Of Angry Mob After Allegedly Refusing To Share 1 Million From Politician

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

Two teachers on Tuesday caused a scene at Kambu police post after storming the post to escape the wrath of an irate mob baying for their blood.

It is alleged that the two Makueni-based teachers declined to share a million shillings from a politician who was campaigning in the area.

According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations Chief, George Kinoti, the two teachers teaching at two local primary schools stormed Kambu police post and went straight behind the report office desk with dozens of motorbike riders hot in their pursuit.

The duo took cover behind surprised officers manning the desk. They bled with them to protect them from an angry mob that was baying for their blood.

“The officers who had a difficult time trying to clam down the mob learnt that the two men seeking refuge behind their backs, had allegedly been given a token of Ksh 1 million by a politician who was camping in the area earlier in that day,” said Kinoti.

The irate riders claimed that instead the two sharing the incentive with them and women selling merchandise in the market, they took off with the money.

“While officers tried to manage the situation, some members of the unruly mob became impatient and started hurling projectiles at them demanding that the two be released to face instant justice,” said Kinoti.

Reportedly, the officers had to recall a reinforcement from Mtito a Ndei Police Station. They managed to disperse the crowd but some of the infuriated riders who could not come to terms with the loss, kept peeping to catch a glimpse of the ongoings in the police post. Kinoti has said investigations into the matter have began.

Why President Uhuru Has Moved To Court Of Appeal

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

President Uhuru Kenyatta has moved to the court of appeal to file a notice of appeal against the High Court’s order that requires him to appoint six judges he had rejected over alleged integrity issues, within 14 days.

The President had refused to appoint the six judges citing intelligence briefs from the National Intelligence Service (NIS).

However, the Judicial Service Commission, which did the vetting of 41 judges to be appointed argued that the brief did not provide evidence.

The President has said he is not happy with the ruling rendered a week ago by Justices George Dulu, William Musyoka and James Wakiaga. Through lawyer Wawru Gatonye, he intends to appeal against the entire 69-page judgement.

The appeal comes two days after Attorney General Paul Kihara Kariuki also filed a similar notice, signaling that the impasse may continue.

The attorney general lodged his notice through deputy Chief State Counsel Emmanuel Bitta.

The President and the AG are aggrieved by the court’s ruling that the Head of State can be sidestepped in the appointment of judges.

Both want to challenge a finding by the court that should the President fail to make the appointments and facilitate an oath-taking ceremony within 14 days, he will lose control of the process and the judges will be deemed dully appointed.

The judges at the center of the legal dispute are George dunga, Aggrey Muchelule, Joel Ngugi and Weldon Korir, together with Mombasa Chief Magistrate Evans Makori and High Court Judith Omange.

When the 14 days given to the president lapse, it will be presumed his power or authority on the issue will be deemed duly appointed to their respective offices, said the High Court.

Subsequently, Chief Justice Martha Koome and JSC will be at liberty to take all necessary steps in having the nominees sworn in and assigned duties.

Elders Reveal What To Do With Serial Killer Masten Wanjala’s Body To Avoid Curses In His Family

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

Days after serial killer Masten Wanjala’s family disowned him for fear of curses, elders from Bukusu community have come out to reveal what can be done to the body to avoid the curses.

According to them, the killer’s body can be buried by the banks of any river to make the family safe. Isaac Misiko an elder who addressed the media said the only way to ensure the family’s safety from curses is by burying their son away from home.

“The only option for the family is to bury the body of Wanjala away from the homestead and along a river bank,” said Misiko while addressing the media. He added that he should be put in his grave at night.

He said rituals should be performed before he is buried so that evil spirits that might haunt the family are done away with.

According to Misiko, burying someone near the river means that the family will forget about what he did in the past, as the memories will be driven downstream.

He also said before his body is picked from the morgue, one is expected to engage him in talks at his native home. What follows then is being spilled with some concoction to cleanse him and the whole family.

Misiko further said the person who will have conversations with Wanjala will be gifted with a bull and while leaving the compound, he is expected not to look behind until he arrives home.

This comes three days after Wanjala’s family disowned him, saying they will not lay him to rest and asked the government to bury him instead.

The self-confessed serial killer who said he had ended lives of more than ten children was lynched by locals in the evening of Thursday, October 14.

“As a family we are not ready in any way to bury him as it might bring curses and that will not be good to the family,” Robert Watila, father to Masten Wanjala said.

He said this after the whole family missed his post-mortem which was done at Bungoma County Referral Hospital.

Police Officers Allegedly Injure Private Parts Of A 22-Year-Old Man

by Yahil Felix
written by Yahil Felix

Ngungani police officers in Kitui County are on spot after allegedly injuring the private parts of a 22-year-old man. The man from Mumoni said that the officers beat him while he was in their custody.

Japheth Mutinda in an interview at a local TV station narrated what happened during the fateful day. He said his agony began when he asked a Boda boda rider to take him home after having a few drinks from a local bar.

He said the rider had agreed to take him home for a Ksh 50 fee. Midway, he claimed the rider refused to honor their earlier agreement and demanded for double pay.

It is at this time that they disagreed leading to the rider assaulting him.

“I told the Boda boda rider to take me home after having a few drinks at a bar. The rider then stopped midway and demanded a double pay of the initial agreement which I could not afford at that time. I asked him to allow me to pay the following day but he refused,” said Mutinda.

Mutinda claimed that the rider went on and reported him to the area assistant chief, framing him for him up. The assistant chief subsequently came to arrest him at his home in company of police officers from Ngugani.

He said during the arrest, he was asked to give out the knife he used to threaten the rider. When he decline having a knife, he was threatned to be taken to an unknown destination if he doesn’t produce it.

Mutinda further said when they reached the Ngugani police station, the station’s OCS started beating him demanding the knife. He said the OCS and his fellow officers beat him while naked.

He said that it is during this beating that his private parts were injured. Mutinda is currently receiving treatment at Mwingi Level IV Hospital.

He calls upon the Independent Police Oversight Authority to investigate the matter and take appropriate action.
