CHEATING




Monday, June 18, 2012 - Multimedia University College has suspended 38 students for allegedly cheating in an examination they sat for last April.


Another 34 students suspected of cheating were also summoned by the Exam Disciplinary Committee and are awaiting the outcome of the investigations.


According to the invigilator of the sociology paper, Mrs. Kathure, the students were copying answers from writings that were on the classroom walls. The students are in the Faculty of Media and Communication.

The Academic Registrar, Dr. Ngoo, added that the students were caught with mobile phones in the exam room.


“We must note that most of the students were diploma students who cheated in the exam. These students are weaker academically and may be tempted to cheat to move on to the next level,” said Dr. Ngoo.


Dr. Ngoo went on to say,”Evil minds are always present in society. There is no cause for alarm. We are looking into the matter very cautiously and those who are found guilty will be kicked out of the institution.”


But some of the affected students say there was no cheating that took place.


“All the students who were sitting along the walls were told to write down their names on a piece of paper. We finished the paper and went on holiday. When we reported back to school in May, 72 of us were summoned by the Exam Disciplinary Committee and 38 were suspended immediately,” says Martin Korir, one of the suspended student.

TAKE CHARGE OR SUFFER!!!!!


The safe sex  message is not getting through the youth generation. the recent index figures show that young people are the most affected and the infection rate is rife among the age of as young as 15 to 24.
Young girls are the most vulnerable risky and most infected, often because they lack the skill and confidence to negotiate safer sex.Older men of course are walking corpse because they choose to sleep with young girls because this girls are ignorant .Ignorant to demand safe sex but also ignorant about sex,they can’t tell you if you are crap in bed, so you get released, use her for your sexual pleasure,buy a cheap phone,cheap dates and move on.
Usually the move on is to the next ignorant young girl or to your wife.I need however to point out a very simple fact in English to the older man who’s more than happy to bully an ignorant girl to have unprotected sex.IGNORANT by no means innocent.she does know when she’s sleeping with a lousy older man and still has sex with her mates more often than you think,bring you nasty things.she is ignorant not innocent.she cant know the phone you got her was you pocket change,doesn’t understand the few drinks are no big deal to your world;the crap apartment you rent for her is the least of your financial burdens
She’s ignorant about a lot of things, however please note she is not innocent.NO matter how cute she looks, she is definitely having sex with her agemate for funand you for the perksThe reason you must, now more than ever insist on a condom and to the young men who say no to condom.it as stopped surprising me,with several baby mamas too young and a sheer terror of sexual transmitted diseases(STD)spark a true engagement of safe sex.How come HIV doesn’t?
The Y generation young men age from 18 to25,chances are he has never seen anyone in real life who had a full grown AIDS.We hardly seen emaciated guys and dead looks in the eyes because of the drug that exists.and ads show active and attractive people loving life.so, young males,HIV isn’t such a big deal and as such condoms use isn’t really a priority.
That is until you hit them with something that will take their joy and life away like babies and the sheer agony and pain of STD.and if we want to help our dear Y generation we need to come up with communication that will truly speak to them rather than to nicely crafted and sanitized words which are used by donors to the young virile and reckless
So until communication comes along here is what you young man you need to know the girl you having sex with has no idea how to negotiate for sex with a condom-she doesn’t have the skill,the experience or confidence to.that means she didn’t do it with the older man she’s sleeping wit or the other guy she’s having sex with as she looks for love.Young men have sex for pleasure: young women have sex hoping it will lead to love and commitment.
If she didn’t negotiate with the last guy she had sex with for a condom,chances are she wont with you.She doesn’t know how to.That means you either going to be a victim of her inexperience and ignorance or you’ll simply make a selfish move and protect yourself,To hear any man play victim and whine about even the after response on STDs is enough to be declared persona granter
The power is in your hands and if you cant take responsibility for your sexuality and your sexual organs,then suffer!!!

AFRICA'S LAST TABOO

 America legalizing gayism,what!Will the African state do the same..some have done it like south Africa.?but wait in Africa the practice is taboo.that makes me to check the meaning of TABOO..according to wikipendia A taboo is a vehement prohibition of an action based on the belief that such behavior is either too sacred or too accursed for ordinary individuals to undertake, under threat of supernatural punishment.


In Kenya we witness gay activist uniting and demonstrating in capitals streets wanting their rights to be addressed and be treated like normal human being..as they demonstrated here in Kenya there campaigns on the ground  to toughen the penalty.

An Zimbabwean minister has ordered traditional leaders to seize land belonging to homosexuals and expel them from their communities that is how the issue homosexuality is so un African and Zimbabwe's president Robert Mugabe told British prime minister David Cameron"to hell with you" over his call to respect gay right and accused non -governmental organization of trying to destabilize the country, in Kenya mtwapa in 12 Feb 2010 we witness a mob wanting to attack a man who had taken refuge in a house,the mob attacked five of the gay men before the police intervened but Mr Tsvangirai,who formed an inclusive government with president Mugabe in 2009,last year he told the BBC he would not oppose provisions on gay rights if the majority of Zimbabweans wanted them in the constitution"its a very controversial subject in my part of the world",he said

The irony of it is their neighbors South Africa legalized same-sex marriage when the Civil Union Act came to force on 30th November 2006.restriction the parties to a marriage or civil partnership must be 18 or older and not already married or civilly partnered. The prohibited degrees of affinity and consanguinity that apply under the Marriage Act also apply under the Civil Union Act; thus a person may not marry his or her direct ancestor or descendant, sibling, uncle or aunt, niece or nephew, or the ancestor or descendant of an ex-spouse.

Are the Western leaders influencing or trying to force Africans to embrace homosexuality.?

Alison Ngubuni hopes her company's soap operas will help put Kenyan television on the global TV market

Alison Ngubuni owns a communication company that aims to make engaging Kenyan soap operas to compete with dominant foreign imports - and put Kenyan television firmly on the African map.
She launched Al Is On Productions in 2003, after having studied marketing and hotel management, and worked in advertising.

Ms Ngubuni said that she started with a very small capital that she had saved from her previous employment.
"I've been that person who was taught to save, even a shilling put it aside," she said.
Many of her initial clients were people who knew her from the advertising agency.
"I had a mobile phone and a computer. Those were the two basic things that I felt I needed at the time," the entrepreneur explained.
"I used to run my company from home and now we've grown and currently I have a studio running with over a hundred people who go through he doors every day."
'University challenge' Ms Ngubuni says it was not easy at the beginning, but she was determined not to go back into employment.

"It's hard but you've just got to have the resilience of focusing on what it is that you want and getting it, and I'm that sort of a person. When I focus on something I get it," she said.
Her company, which is based in the Kenyan capital, Nairobi, still makes commercials for it is a quick way of making money and keeping the company going.
"The beauty also of what I do is the fact that you actually can start your business with nothing. When you come to me to do a TV commercial, you need to pay 50% so I can use your money to do the commercial," she said.
However, her real passion is for television programmes made locally, for a local audience.
Her first success was with a programme - inspired by the BBC show University Challenge - called the Zain Africa Challenge, which involved students from eight countries.
At the same time, she ventured into drama with an education-entertainment series called Siri, which means "secret" in Swahili, set in a tea plantation.
It deals with reproductive health issues, HIV and the position of women.

It will be Kenya's first soap opera filmed completely in a studio.
"At the back of my mind I've always been really upset with the amount of Mexican and foreign television on our screens.
"I sort of thought, you know, what is it, why are you trying to tell us - as broadcasters - that Kenyans don't want to see Kenyans on the screen, that we are so razzmatazzed by the Mexicans, the Spanish, the Nigerians, that we really don't have our own to showcase on the screen?"
Ms Ngubuni said that with Mali she wants to tell "an African story that is different, that can travel across the continent".

She believes that many people in different parts of Africa will be familiar with the issues raised by the series.
"I came from a very polygamous family. My grandfather had like 11 to 12 wives. My own father had two. I also grew up in a very dynamic household," she said.
Her greatest satisfaction, she says, is to be able to make people laugh and cry.
"Most of my dramas have been a lot on HIV. I think when I meet people and people want to confide and say, 'Look, how do I reveal to my husband that I'm HIV positive? I saw it on your show', that for me is just so uplifting, that I'm able to change people's lives. You know, it's beautiful."
Ms Ngubuni pointed out that she also takes pleasure in collaborating with people in the television industry and helping others, from directors to scriptwriters and actors.
"I try to do my bit because I can't be alone up there. It's about an industry. It's bigger than Alison.
"It's about creating jobs. It's about everybody benefiting. It's a space that hasn't been tapped. It's got such a great potential."

A woman who claims she has a two-month-old baby with an MP is seeking Sh1.2 million from the lawmaker in upkeep.
But Mwea MP Peter Gitau has denied the allegations, saying that he is a happily married family man.
In a suit filed at a Nairobi court, the 21-year-old mother working in a private company in Nairobi, claims that Mr Gitau made her pregnant and then dumped her.
She alleges that the MP promised her a job, a car and a house if she bore a child for him.
She wants the court to issue orders for the MP to provide for the baby arguing that under the Children’s Act, he is obliged to provide maintenance She met the MP in Nakuru in 2010 and after being promised the “goodies”, she agreed to have a child with Mr Gitau. But the lawmaker abandoned her after she informed him that she was pregnant.
“The defendant stopped all means of communication with me when I became pregnant,” she says.
“I am a happily married man with a family and the allegations that I promised the plaintiff a house, car and job are absolute lies meant to support material greed and extortion,” the MP said.
He alleged that the woman was a stranger to him as he had only met her twice — first for a business meeting at his private office in Nakuru and later during asocial event.
The woman, through lawyer Danstan Mogaka, wants the court to allow her to serve the case documents through the Clerk of the National Assembly.
She is also seeking an order directing the MP to appear in court in person.
The MP has not only denied the allegations, but also argues that the woman has sued the wrong person because she has indicated his name as Peter Nderitu Gitau while he is Peter Gitau.
The case is scheduled for hearing in June.

Drogba confirms Chelsea departure

Didier Drogba says Fernando Torres is Chelsea's future

Didier Drogba said that Fernando Torres offers a bright future for Chelsea despite his difficult start to life at Stamford Bridge.
The Spaniard, who arrived for £50m from Liverpool in January 2011, has revealed his frustration at life with the Blues.
But the departing Drogba says Torres will prove himself next season.
"We have a good relationship. We don't understand why we didn't play together more, but that's the past. Torres is the future," said Drogba.
"It's been difficult for him, but he has showed he is the man. Next season is going to be his season and I will try to speak to him."
Torres, 28, was disappointed to start on the bench in the Champions League final against Bayern Munich, which saw Drogba round off his Chelsea career with the equaliser and then the decisive spot-kick in the penalty shoot-out.
Ivory Coast international Drogba, 34, has subsequently confirmed he is leaving Stamford Bridge after eight years.
Doubts still surround the managerial position at Chelsea, who finished sixth in the Premier League, with interim boss Roberto di Matteo not offered assurances about his future despite winning the Champions League and FA Cup.
But Drogba, who won 10 trophies, including three Premier League titles with the Stamford Bridge club, is sure the Blues will continue to challenge for silverware on a regular basis.
He added: "Being here for eight years, it will be a big change.
"Players will go, some stay, but the club will remain as ambitious as it has always been. I am not worried.
"Chelsea was there before I came and always will be.
"It's impossible to forget this moment. Leaving Chelsea in any case would be difficult, but now even more. It is impossible, Chelsea is in my heart. My blood is blue and my heart even more so."
