Brothers and Sisters let me take this opportunity to wish you all a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR. I hope the new year will be full of promises and blessings in big and small ways. Looking back in the year now ending it has been full of blessings and a mixture of misfortunes. The year started by our beloved country almost drowning in anarchy. For the first time we witnessed Neighbours who had lived for decades in peace and as brothers and sisters turning against each other and killing each other in the name of Politics??? am happy to see that the Kivuitu's team are sent parking I hope the almighty God will make them pay for the sins our brothers did to each other. Many lost their livelihood, most lost their life time investments and they have been enjoying themselves, many are still homeless. The food prices have hiked that ordinary wanainchi cannot afford food prices. Many of us might not understand how it feels like to be unable to put food on the table to feed your children.
On the international scene things have not been rosy either, the financial crisis has seen a lot of changes in the financial institutions this has made the hunger in Kenya worse as the main source of Kenyan economy over the past few years has been the support from the Kenyans in the diaspora. The crisis has affected most people making this form of support go down. Most of the Western Economy is in recession and as most people might not be aware the international market is all connected and the countries rely on each other. Let us pray that things will get better in the new year. Hopefully with peace in the country and God willing with rains the country will be able to farm and make good harvest that will encourage the prices of food to come down. May the Almighty God bless you all. James Okal.
