THE TUMBLEDOWN OF KISII STUDENTS' MESS(CAFETERIA)

THE UNIVERSITY MESS IN HIGH SCHOOL
By Glen Don

Time for Kisii's Student Mess to upgrade.
Change is sweeter and more difficult.
The implementation of a policy is what takes time.
During my orientation process at Kisii University, we were told of how the Students' Mess was working 24/7. That any time you go there you will find food and quality one.

Today, to me all these are narratives of public relations where you better even the pigsty. Defending the wrong by giving a sweeter narrative and a fastidious picture.
As it is now, no student can pop into the student mess and get food anytime and be served any classy scrumptious meal that is worthy of the pocket of sundry.

The mess up to date is working like that at the precincts of a boarding school or secondary and primary school levels, operating three times a day by serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

The University has no common timetable for every student as it was in the previous levels of studies. The standard time for teaching is two hours and mostly commences at 7 am.m. and ends at 7 pm.
As students have no specific break time and indeed for some of the students find it hard to have resting time as they only have one hour for resting. At what time will such a student serve when at the counter, cashiers are never swift, and in the serving counter line is not maintained? How will such a student person attend lectures? The majority of students usually attend the lectures on an empty stomach or rather some miss lectures on time just to their stomach first. 
Among students, there exist those with different ailments and a hybrid of health conditions. For instance, how the ulcerous students who live within the school Hostels survive is a quandary. Whereas timeliness should be a factor in any place, here time is just a hidden treasure, and cannot be found. The efficiency and effectiveness in the delivery of service to the student are in a frenzy.
On March 19th, I branched to have a flying visit to University of Nairobi. A friend of mine took me for a meal, I cannot call it lunch or breakfast. Before I reached I asked where we were going to eat but she said to me, here at the student cafeteria, it was 10:47 a.m., to avoid being dangled in confusion array, I decided to keep quiet, but deep in my mind a challenge was tossed to me and I reflected how our cafeteria works.
When she asked me how our ( Kisii University student mess) works I chose silence and dodged the question lightly by taking up on another matter far from the subject.
How things operated there perturbed me, ranging from cashier to food serving. The food was paid using a mobile transaction, and food was served upon the message reflection. 
The UON's cafeteria was tidy and orderly to the extent that it may lead one to reckon that they are Institution's staff or executive's place to dine.
Today, this experience at the University Of Nairobi became reminiscential to me as I was braving hunger in a corner of the Kisii University, but did not have a choice just because it was 'odd' hours for serving in the students' cafeteria.

If what I was told was the truth, then I could have rushed and served the food to kill hunger. The presumptuous confidence of having a student cafeteria is not with me. 
A student who misses breakfast for classes may end up missing lunch for classes too and in supper the same student serves but late hours, is this not "forced kuinama' by the institution on students?
How could it be noble for the Kisii University students' cafeteria to start working without time limits? Let one miss for lack of money to buy but not because food is not being served.
Traversing the lecture halls for lectures and later come tired and hungry but no option because 'Mess' is not functioning. Where will run to get energy when the doors are locked just to keep inside clean and bridle people to come at specific hours of serving food? Hectic. Loathsome.

With increase in population, should lead to better performance and improvement of activities contextually the cafeteria.
It is not serving high school students but rather students.

THE UNSINKABLE THAT SUNK

By Glen Don  112 YEARS GONE  In the Atlantic ocean one of the horrible things happened. Lives were lost, property of invaluable destroyed and other belongings got lost. It is exactly a hundred and twelve years since 'The Unsinkable' sunk and never to be resurfaced on water or on earth. The Titanic ship during the time would be the largest ship on earth to be ever built, The Titanic ship during its era of the launch was the largest in the world. The ship's capacity is said to be possibly 3,300 while those who were on board is said to be about 2,000 and of those who boarded only thirty two percent survived the shipwreck. Majority of those who survived were women and children. This is due to the privilege they were granted to be the first people to be saved. The Titanic ship shipwrecked after hitting an iceberg that was ahead of it, due to the surcharged pressure, the ship divided into two making it to get submerged in the Atlantic ocean. The ship sunk down the ocean when it ...

The Room of two contradicting speeches

The miss link in communication in the Government as a unit is a puzzle. President William Ruto was today on May 3, expected to address the nation on the state of the nation in regard to the flood. Just before the President addressed the nation, there was a memo circulating already of how the school reopening would go on as planned. The Ministry of Education while addressing the safety of the learners through the memo directed that the School Board of Management to ensure that the learners are ready for learning and precautionary measures are undertaken to avoid hindrances. Later, two hours after the memo, the President addressed the nation and ordered that the postponement of school reopening be suspended until further notice. Out of the impossible, the ministry of education seemed to be having the stand of opening schools. The Education Cabinet Secretary seems to be under pressure when he was releasing the memo since the last was released on the wee hours of the morning hence today...
