You assassinate my character? No way. Vows Judge Lenaola

Justice Lenaola has launched an offensive of his own and retained the services of advocate Donald Korir to fight the petition challenging his suitability before the Judicial Service Commission.

In this effort he has formally written to telecommunication service provider Safaricom demanding to know how his private call records could have been accessed by one Derrick Ngumu who is seeking his removal from office.

He has also threatened to sue the president’s head of digital communication Dennis Itumbi and the Standard Newspaper for spreading falsehoods through their respective platforms.

Ngumu claims Lenaola held phone conversations and meetings with Raila Odinga’s agents in and around the time he filed a petition challenging President Kenyatta’s electoral victory in the last presidential election.

America: Federal judge refuses to stop the new revised Trump travel ban

A U.S. federal court on Friday refused to put an emergency halt to US President Donald Trump's new revised travel ban, saying lawyers from the 6 states opposed to the measure needed to file more extensive court papers.

Washington state and the state of Minnesota had challenged Trump's initial executive order issued in January, which ordered restricted travel from seven Muslim-majority countries and stopped refugees from entering the U.S. Seattle U.S. District Court Judge James Robart issued a temporary restraining order against the first policy last month.
Trump's legal team tried to overturn the ban but were unsuccessful.

So on Monday, Trump issued a narrower version of the ban and removed Iraq from the list, leaving the other 6 countries, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen are still on the list.

However, six states in the US challenged the new order asking for its implementation to be halted.

The state of Hawaii filed suit, arguing the new federal order will harm Muslims living in the Pacific Island state. Five other states have banded together in a combined challenge to the latest order from Trump. Then Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, Massachusetts and New York joined in the legal action.

However, the same Seattle U.S. District Court Judge, James Robart who issued the restraining order to the first order last month, on Friday, declined to apply his first order to the new ban.

Married woman pours hot water on neighbour's manhood for refusing to sleep with her (PHOTO)

A man identified as Lopes Hobjana, almost lost his manhood after a woman who lives in the same yard as him allegedly poured boiling water over him for refusing to have sex with her.

The 25-year-old from Palm Ridge, Ekurhuleni said he believed God had sent an angel to protect him.

He said to Daily Sun:
“This woman had beef with me because I refused to sleep with her. She thought I was going to tell her husband and she started swearing at me,” he said. “I have not been eating at the main house and I kept it to myself as she asked me to, but she’s always restless.”

Lopes said he had accepted that his relationship with the woman had turned sour.

“I stay in my room but she sometimes knocks on the door just to swear at me. I don’t fight back as I have always respected her. “On Thursday, my friend came to visit me and her husband asked us to help other tenants carry a bed into their room. Out of nowhere, the woman came out of the house with a bucket of boiling water and threw it at me, but luckily my friend pulled me away.

“The water hit my thighs and she started shouting at me that she wanted to burn my manhood! I am grateful to God that I’m alive. But I want her to go to jail .”

Eden Park police spokeswoman Captain Buyisile Mvelase said a case of assault was opened.

Witches around the world unite to cast spell on Donald Trump

In a rare event that will be taking place by midnight on March 26, April 24 and May 23, witches, Wiccans, shamans, heremeticists, cunning folk, sorcerers and sorceresses, hoodooists, occultists, magicians, ceremonialists and ritualists will be gathering to cast a spell on America's President, Donald Trump, as the first ritual has been held on February 24.

This is coming after President Trump's proposed plan of tracking down
witches.

Ingredients needed to cast the spell on Donald Trump and his supporters include; an unflattering photo of Trump, a tiny orange candle, a Tower tarot card, bowls of water and salt, a pin which is used to carve Trump's name on the candle.
Once these have been gathered, they will then be arranged in a pleasing position along with a feather, a white candle and an ashtray or dish filled with sand.

The witches are also expected to chant; 'I call upon you / To bind / Donald J. Trump / So that he may fail utterly / That he may do no harm/To any human soul.'

The second verse tackles a different issues, with the lines: 'Bind him so that he shall not break our polity / Usurp our liberty / Or fill our minds with hate, confusion, fear, or despair.'

Here's the chant for the spell for Donald Trump's supporters;
'Bind them in chains / Bind their tongues / Bind their works / Bind their wickedness,' sing the women and men, who at this point are told to take the orange candle and light President Trump's photo on fire.
To close things out the phrase 'So mote it be!' is repeated three times and the candle blown out.
It is important that while blowing out the person is 'visualizing Trump blowing apart into dust or ash.'
Witches are also directed to ground themselves after the ritual before disposing of the candle.

It is expected the spell will stop Donald Trump from doing more harm than good and also banish him.

However, some witches are growing concerned as the event draws near, and taking issue with whether or not the binding spell is appropriate, because they do not believe it comes from a place of love.

The United States President is yet to respond to this.

Want to reach humanity? Be open to God's grace, Pope says

The Christian mission today means facing new challenges with simplicity, holiness, and openness to God, Pope Francis told an audience with the Marian Fathers on Saturday.

“Many still await knowledge of Jesus, the sole Redeemer of man, and many situations of injustice and moral and material hardship challenge believers,” the Pope said Feb. 18. “Such an urgent mission requires conversion at personal and community levels. Only hearts that are fully open to the action of grace are able to interpret the signs of the times and to hear the calls of humanity in need of hope and peace.”

The Pope told the Marian Fathers that their apostolate is a “vast field” constituted by “the urgent need” to bear witness to the gospel before everyone without distinctions.

The Pope received members of the Congregation of the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception on Saturday morning in the Vatican’s Consistory Hall. The congregation, present in 20 countries, is holding its general chapter in Rome from Feb. 5-25.

The Pope encouraged their reflections to be done in fidelity with their founder’s charism and their spiritual heritage while also having “a heart and mind open to the new needs of the people.”

“It is true, we must go ahead towards the new needs, the new challenges, but remember: we cannot go ahead without memory,” Pope Francis said. “It is a continual tension. If I want to go ahead without memory of the past, of the history of the founders, the great figures and also the sins of the congregation, I cannot do so.”

The Marian Fathers was founded by St. Stanislaus of Jesus and Mary in Poland in 1673. He was canonized in 2016.

Pope Francis told the congregation’s members that their service to God’s word is “witness to the Risen Christ, whom you have met on your journey and whom, with your style of life, you are called to take wherever the Church sends you.”

“Christian witness also requires commitment to and with the poor, a commitment that has characterized your Institute since the beginning,” the Pope continued. “I encourage you to keep alive this tradition of service to the poor and humble, through the proclamation of the Gospel with language understandable to them, with works of mercy and prayer for the souls of the departed.”

The Pope stressed the importance of simplicity as a spiritual foundation.

“We are not princes, sons of princes or counts or barons: we are simple people, of the people. And for this reason we draw close with this simplicity to the simple people and those who suffer the most: the sick, children, the abandoned elderly, the poor … all of them,” he said. “And this poverty is at the heart of the Gospel: it is the poverty of Jesus, not sociological poverty, but that of Jesus.”

Pope Francis invoked the example of Blessed George Matulaitis, a member of the congregation who became Bishop of Vilnius in Lithuania. He was beatified in 1987.

The Pope praised his writings for showing “the total dedication to the Church and to man.” He praised the congregation’s initiatives to spread its charism to poor countries, especially those in Africa and Asia.

“The great challenge of enculturation requires that today you proclaim the Good News using languages and methods comprehensible to the men of our time, involved in processes of rapid social and cultural change,” the Pope said.

The pontiff asked the Marian Fathers to show courage in their service to Jesus Christ and the Church. He said that God can draw great things out of smallness and unworthiness.

“Our smallness is in fact the seed, that then germinates, grows; the Lord waters it, and in this way it goes ahead,” the Pope said. “But the sense of smallness is that first impulse towards trust in the power of God. Go, go ahead on this road.”

Pope Francis prayed for the congregation’s journey of faith and growth.

Donald Trump gets new security adviser

Mr Trump has praised Herbert Raymond McMaster as "a man of tremendous talent and tremendous experience" who is "highly respected by everybody in the military".

Gen McMaster served in Afghanistan and Iraq, and is known as a thoughtful, if straight-talking, military strategist, the BBC's Aleem Maqbool reports from Washington.

He does not appear to have close ties to Moscow, and was recently commissioned to study the ways the US could counter some of Russia's military advances, our correspondent adds.

Gen McMaster is no stranger to questioning authority . In a 2014 interview, he said: "The commanders that I've worked for, they want frank assessments, they want criticism and feedback."

Time magazine named him as one of its 100 most influential people in the world in 2014, saying he "might be the 21st Century Army's pre-eminent warrior-thinker".

He criticised the US military's involvement in the Vietnam War in his book Dereliction of Duty.

He has a PhD in US history from the University of North Carolina.

Gen McMaster has said it is "a privilege... to be able to continue serving our nation" and that he looks forward to joining the national security team.

What will his role as national security adviser involve?

The role involves serving as an independent adviser to the president on issues of national security and foreign policy.

It is one of the most senior roles in the US government. Observers say the role's influence varies from administration to administration, but the adviser is seen as one of the president's key confidantes.

The adviser attends the National Security Council, and may act as a broker between different government departments.
The role is not subject to US Senate confirmation.

Mexicans form HUMAN WALL along US border to protest Trump

Thousands of Mexicans linked arms Friday to form a “human wall” on their country’s border with the United States, protesting President Donald Trump’s plan to build a massive barrier between the countries.

The protest, organized by local authorities and Mexican advocacy groups, brought together people armed with flowers, including politicians, social leaders and crowds of students to the border town Ciudad Juarez — which already is separated by extensive fencing from its American neighbor city El Paso.

Protestors hurled slogans at Trump, whose plans to build the wall to keep undocumented immigrants out of the US — and make Mexico foot the bill — has enraged many people here.

“The wall is one of the worst ideas,” said Carolina Solis, a 31-year-old student. “It won’t stop anything — not drugs or migrants.”
“It’s just a symbol of Donald Trump’s hatred, the president’s racism.”

Under the watchful eye of US Border Patrol officers, protestors — among them El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser — formed a human barrier of nearly 1.5 kilometers (0.9 miles).

Many people on both sides of the border cross it daily, calling one country home while going to work in the other.

“Ciudad Juarez and El Paso are one city — we will never be apart,” said Leeser, who was born on the Mexican side of the border.

His Ciudad Juarez counterpart Mayor Armando Cabada vowed to help resettle migrants deported from the US.

“Trump only generates fear in our US compatriots. We must show solidarity with them and tell them that they have our support,” he said.
“If they are deported, we will welcome them with open arms.”

Last week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested some 680 people across the United States as part of a crackdown by the new administration on the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States.

Officials insist the raids targeted known criminals but rights advocates say people with no serious criminal records were also detained.

A similar protest was planned on Mexico’s Pacific coast, at the border between the city of Tijuana and its US neighbor San Diego.

United States of America sanctions Venezuelan Vice President on drug trafficking acts

The Trump administration imposed sanctions against Venezuelan Vice President Tareck El Aissami, after years of investigation by U.S. authorities into his alleged participation in drug trafficking and money laundering. The Treasury Department announced the move Monday, 13th 2017, placing El Aissami and another Venezuelan, Samark Lopez Bello, on a U.S. list of foreign nationals with suspected ties to drug trafficking.

El Aissami is the highest-ranking Venezuelan hit by U.S. sanctions and the most-senior government leader of any country on the so-called Specially Designated Nationals list, according to a U.S. official, who discussed the matter on condition of anonymity.

Those listed have their assets blocked and U.S. citizens, institutions and companies are prohibited worldwide from dealing with them, according to the Treasury Department. The sanctions mark an extraordinary step against the second-in-command of a foreign government and are sure to lead to a further deterioration of U.S. relations with the government of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, who appointed El Aissami as vice president on Jan. 4 amid a deepening economic and humanitarian crisis.

The department also sanctioned Samark Lopez Bello, a Venezeulan businessman accused of being El Aissami's frontman. Lopez Bello helped launder money through a network of 13 companies in the U.S., Venezuela, Panama, the British Virgin Islands and the United Kingdom.

The sanctions include freezing all their U.S.-based assets, which include a twin-engine Gulfstream jet, and blocking all their U.S.-based companies and properties.

The pair controlled tens of millions of dollars in Miami real estate alone, a senior Treasury Department official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to publicly discuss the case.

Under the sanctions, the two men are forbidden from traveling to the United States, and people in the U.S. are prohibited from conducting transactions with them or the companies they controlled.

The department said he orchestrated drug shipments from a Venezuelan air base and multiple seaports, some weighing more than 2,200 pounds per shipment.

While U.S. officials were gathering evidence under President Barack Obama and prior to El Aissami’s ascent to the vice presidency, action stalled until now. The designations didn’t require President Donald Trump’s personal approval, and Trump has not been involved in the discussions, according to another U.S. official, who also spoke on condition of anonymity.

El Aissami, the son of Syrian and Lebanese immigrants, has long been one of Venezuela’s most controversial and feared politicians.

In just over a decade, the 42-year-old climbed government ranks from a student leader in rural Venezuela, to minister of interior and justice, to his previous post as the governor of Aragua state.

In the weeks since becoming vice president, El Aissami received wide-reaching decree powers from Maduro, who tapped him to lead a newly formed “commando unit” against alleged coup plotters and officials suspected of treason.

In those roles, he helped convicted drug kingpin Walid Makled Garcia operate his international drug network, the Treasury Department said. El Aissami also helped coordinate drug shipments to cartels in Colombia and Mexico, the department said.

Republican Senator, Marco Rubio, said similar sanctions should be enacted against other members of the government headed by Venezuelan President, Nicolás Maduro.

"For years, I've talked about how Venezuelan regime officials are committing crimes in Venezuela, stealing from the Venezuelan people and then spending their riches in the lap of luxury in Miami," Rubio said.

"Today's announcement further confirms how true this is." The Treasury Department said El Aissami had a long history of running drug networks and helping drug cartels operating in the country.

El Aissami has consistently denied all allegations levelled against him.

Photos: Mob drag female child killer out of cell and throw her into bonfire

A woman who was being held in a police cell in Brazil for starting a fire that killed a 2-year-old boy was on Tuesday dragged out by a group of about 500 people who overpowered the police then proceeded to throw the woman into a bonfire.

The woman was dragged along the floor by her hair, all the way outside to a burning car and was forced into the fire. Everyone around recorded the incident on their phones and made no move to help her until the police called for reinforcement and a troop of full military police arrived that the woman
was rescued.

The woman allegedly started the fire on Monday in a house with two little boys and four adults. One of the boys died, the other was badly injured. The woman had not been charged or convicted at the time of the lynch but the mob obviously decided to take the law into their hands.

She was taken to a hospital to be treated for her injuries and police are keeping her location secret. Meanwhile, an investigation into the event has already started.

No closure of Dadaab refugee camp, rules court

In a ruling delivered by Justice John Mativo, the court indicated that the directive issued by Interior Cabinet Secretary, Major Gen. (Rtd.) Joseph Nkaissery, on the intended repatriation of refugees and asylum seekers of Somali origin on May 10, 2016 violates the Constitution and the International legal obligations adding that Nkaiserry and his Principal Secretary, Karanja Kibicho, acted in excess powers in announcing the closure of the camp.

“A declaration that the decision of the government of Kenya to collectively repatriate all refugees in Dadaab Refugee Complex to the frontiers of their country of origin against their will violate the principle on international convention as expressed in Article 33 of the 1951 UN convention relating to the status of refugees as well as Section 18 of the Refugee Act 2006,” the court ruled.

The court further ruled that the decision specifically targeting Somali refugees is an act of group persecution, illegal, discriminatory and, therefore, unconstitutional.

In the case, Kituo Cha Sheria, Legal Advice Centre and Amnesty International sued CS Nkaissery seeking to stop the directive to close the world’s largest refugee camp, Daadab.

Teachers vehemently oppose the new circular on weekends and holidays

Teachers are up in arms tough rules to keep them in school during weekends and public holidays.

Teachers are not happy about the rules. Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) Secretary General Wilson Sossion said the directive will hurt teachers.

"Teachers are already over-burdened due to the high number of learners. They are not refusing to teach but the focus should be on employing more teachers not making them work on weekends and holidays," Sossion said.

He said that if the student-teacher ratio is addressed, then the country can be sure that it is moving in the right direction.

The Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) Kisumu branch executive secretary Zablon Awange opposed the directive.

"It is uncalled-for, punitive, in bad faith, unfortunate and intended to punish the teacher as it will interfere with their right to rest and enjoy their social activities.

Kuppet argues that the new directive went against an earlier one issued by the Ministry of Education.

"The TSC circular is in bad taste since the official working hours have been gazetted by the Ministry of Education. If it is not withdrawn, we will challenge it in court," he said.

He called on Government to instead hire more teachers as it prepares to roll out the proposed 2-6-6-3 curriculum to fill the estimated gap of 100,000 teachers.

In a circular dated February 2, Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Chief Executive Nancy Macharia directed Government ministries, agencies and non-governmental organisations undertaking educational tasks that require teacher participation to schedule these for weekends and school holidays.

The same rule applies to teacher's Savings and Credit Co-operative Societies (Saccos) and union officials wishing to meet their members.

Teachers will also be required to have written permission to be away from their institutions when co-curricular activities are taking place on weekends or public holidays.

According to TSC, the new directives are meant to keep teachers in class for effective curriculum implementation.

The directive is addressed to all county directors, principals of national polytechnics, institutes of science and technology and technical training institutes.

Others are director of Kenya Institute of Secondary Education, principals of both diploma and primary teacher training colleges, principals of secondary schools, head teachers of primary schools and all teachers.

My country has betrayed me yet i have fought many extremists in Syria and Iraq, it now treats me like a terrorist, says Joanna Palani

Joanna Palani, 22, fought extremists in Syria and Iraq but says she is shunned after returning home to Copenhagen.

A Danish student who gave up her studies to fight ISIS believes she has a $1million bounty on her head but claims she is being treated as "a terrorist" back home.

Joanna Palani, 22, claims to have killed 100 militants during battles in Iraq and Syria as a crackshot sniper.

She also says she freed a group of women and children being held as sex slaves by ISIS and then taught them how to become soldiers and fight back.

Palani is of Iranian-Kurdish ancestry and her father and grandfather were both Peshmerga fighters.

She was born in a UN refugee camp before moving to Copenhagen as a toddler and learned to fire a gun at nine-years-old.

But she says life has been a struggle since she returned home from her heroics.

She said: "I was willing to give up my life and my freedom to stop ISIS advancing, so that everyone in Europe can be safe.
"This was my choice.

"But I am seen as a terrorist by my own country."

Joanna added: "I live in one of the best countries in the world but I am hungry and homeless and freezing cold in bed at night, even though I am working full time. I don't trust anyone."

Speaking about her battles with ISIS, the former student had boasted of her success.

"ISIS fighters are very easy to kill," she previously told Vice .

"ISIS fighters are very good at sacrificing their own lives, but Assad's soldiers are very well-trained and they are specialist killing machines."

I am not joining NASA, says Bungoma governor Ken Lusaka

At a time when the opposition coalition NASA is starting to take shape, Bungoma Governor Ken Lusaka has rebutted claims that he is planning to join the outfit.

Speaking on a local TV station on Thursday, the Governor denied that he is planning to bolt out of the Uhuru Kenyatta-led Jubilee Party, adding that he is happy to be part of it.

According to the former Permanent Secretary, he does not regret joining Jubilee even as he made claims that NASA has nothing to offer as it is only interested in accommodating the egos of the principals with non-existent positions.

Lusaka, who comes from the region that is pro-opposition, was also quick to dismiss claims by a section of leaders that Pan-Paper Mills in Webuye which was recently re-opened by the President has ceased operating.

He further accused opposition of having no agenda for Kenya.

The former New Ford Kenya Party leader was also quick to defend the President from accusations that he has sidelined the former Western Province. He said that much has been done in the region since the new regime came into power.

Kikuyu Elders Gather in Muranga to Lay Curse on SK Macharia for Betraying the Kikuyu community

Elders of the Kikuyu community on Tuesday gathered in Ndakaini village, Gatanga to cast a curse on Royal Media Services Chariman S.K Macaharia for betraying his community.

About 100 elders performed rituals including slaughtering a single-coloured he-goat and roasting it during their meeting in Gatanga constituency, Murang’a county.

The Star reports that they muttered curses against the media mogul before piercing the meat with thorns- an indication of the wrath that awaits Macharia.

This comes after Mr Macharia refused to apologise to the community over claims that Opposition leader Raila Odinga had won the 2007 General Election.

Murang’a county chairman Kiarii Rugami wa Chumbuu said it was a bad omen for any member of the Kikuyu community to expose his people to enemies, with the intention of causing bloodshed.

“This is real. It is no joke. We gave him the mandatory 14 days to apologise to the community for exposing them to attacks by other communities especially in this electioneering period,” said Kiarii Rugami wa Chumbuu.

“We have sent delegations to him but he has dismissed the call of the community, leaving us no choice but to go ahead with the rituals,” he added.

“He has denied ever uttering words that could jeopardise the safety of the Agikuyu community. We curse his business. We curse his generations. He is not lucky if you may ask me. Curses do strike.”

National Deputy Chairman of Kikuyu Council of Elders, Ndichu Njuguna, said the exercise will serve as a lesson to the community and deter anyone with similar thoughts.

Exposed: Principal Mumbi Girls Muranga denies a needy student form one chance...And the student had admission letter, parents are pleading for help

IN PICTURE: Alice (centre) with her parents.

A facebook user Flonniz W Flozy, took to social media to highlight the desperate experience this girl and her parents have gone through at the hands of "Mighty" principal of Mumbi Girls Secondary School Murang'a. As if we don't have Matiang'i to descend on this principal.

Flonniz W Flozy posted:
Good afternoon Madam PRINCIPAL Mrs Wambugu, I believe you are well together with Mumbi Girls fraternity.

I wish to request your response on a matter that has been disturbing since it was brought to my attention.

It's a story of Alice, a girl who completed class 8 in 2016 at a primary school in Gachie- Kiambu County.

Alice was excited to receive an invitation to join your school for secondary education. Her parents too. But the family is from a humble dwelling.

Concerned that it would take time before they raise required amount of school fees, her father visited your school on 7th January to request more time as the family mobilised funds from friends. He wanted reservation of the vacancy until 18th January.

When Baba Alice came to school you were not in. But he managed to talk to your deputy, Mrs. Kihonge. After putting across his prayers, your Deputy asked for the girl's name and father's mobile number. She noted them down and asked him to go ahead with his plans.

The deadline for form one admission was 16th January. On the very day, Baba Alice visited the school and paid schoolfees. He however could not bring the girl to school because she required to buy a few more items as required by the school.

On 17th January early morning, Alice accompanied by her father and mother reported to school. They carried with them a big metal box and a bucket and other items.

As they waited to be served, another girl accompanied by her parents walked in. They too were reporting for school.
Madam Principal, something didn't go right and this is why I'm writing to you begging for answers.

Together with your Deputy you invited Alice and her parents to your office. You asked for all documents pertaining admission including fee payment receipts. You retained the receipts and returned the rest to them.

Madam Principal you summoned the school bursar and ordered him to refund all the money paid by Baba Alice. You also told them there was no vacancy and they should try their luck elsewhere.

Not sure of what to do, the family walked back home hoping for a miracle. Meanwhile the other waiting girl was ushered in and showed where to get her uniform ready for class. At least for her the vacancy was still there.

Mrs. Wambugu, I called your office anonymously last week. I wanted to know if there's a vacancy. I was told there is. I therefore concluded something didn't go right between young Alice and your office.
Madam Principal, what did they do wrong?

This Sunday afternoon Alice is at Gachie - Kihara Division in Kiambu County hoping an opportunity will open somewhere. She believes it will happen.

But before putting this letter I called your Deputy, Mrs.Kihonge. She literally couldn't tell what happened with the case but asked if I could call after 20 minutes so she could consult you. She said you were both in the school vicinity. She hasn't been picking my calls since then.
Allow me to put a few questions if you could respond Madam.

1. When Baba Alice realized he needed time to raise schoolfees, he visited the school all the way from Kiambu County to your school in Muranga County on 7th. He got a commitment from your Deputy to be in school by 18th. He however paid schoolfees on 16th , two days ahead of what he had requested. He later brought his daughter to school on 17th.

What else did you require to know that this girl and her parents were committed in pursuing education at your school that the reservation had to be taken by somebody else?

2. When you informed her (Alice) the vacancy had filled up, where did you get one for the other girl who paid her school fees on 17th and what guided you in choosing who to give consideration?

3. When I called earlier this week (our conversation is recorded), I was asked to visit the school we talk. What is this talk that you couldn't grant Alice' parents. Is it anything more than schoolfees?

4. How do you feel as a parent when someone's child who was rightly and on merit invited to join your school but is at this time at home not sure of what next?

5. Is my vacancy still available so I can donate it to Alice?
Please respond to me.

With kind regards,
NDUNGU NYORO- Public Noisemaker.
…………………………………………………….………
If anyone reads this letter, kindly help me reach MADAM PRINCIPAL by SHARING it.
