 By Glen Don

THE MEDIA COUNCIL’S VISIT TO KISII UNIVERSITY

The Kisii University Media students on Saturday 10, February will have the privilege of meeting their umbrella body, the Media Council of Kenya (MCK).

The MCK’s official visit will commence tomorrow Saturday until Monday 12, February with various activities set to take place within the period of the visit.

In the schedule, on Saturday the opening activity will be Students' talk and career guidance, on Sunday it will be sports day where Kisii Journalists will have a match against Kisumu journalists and on Monday there will be a separate round-table meeting with the lecturers, training for the journalists, lecturers and students then finally training for communication team and journalists on access to information. This will mark the end of their three-day visit to Kisii.

Apart from these, the MCK is expected to aid the students who have qualified to be media practitioners and communication experts in obtaining their Press Cards. A card that is essential in the field of journalism and communication just as a business license.

The grace of processing the Media Press Card will be a blessing to the third-year students who are proceeding with their industrial attachment in the month of May.

The expectations of the students that I am part of towards their visitors are high from them just as some of the Lecturers within the Department of Communication Media and Information Science.

The lecturers are elated that their students have the privilege of being trained before their awaiting fieldwork

The Communication and Media falls under the School of Information Science at Kisii University and has students of about five hundred and above.

The session all-round will help the students learn and have matters that have disturbed them concerning their profession and passion deciphered, all Media students are therefore urged to attend the event that will be held at Amphitheatre Hall behind the Main Library.

Karibuni wageni. Welcome our Visitors.

Church as the conduit in political Arena

Churches Again! Kenyan politicians should desist from attending churches as a way of getting masses, let each one organize mass on his or her own.  While doing politics, leaders usually prefer weekends and majorly on Sundays in order to get masses and sell their aspirations to the congregants.  In 2022, Dr. Canon Ida Odinga , was bashed when she breached an idea about church regulation when the current government during their hay days in their opposition intensed their campaigns in churches as the congregants were the target voters. Luckily, church was the conduit for the majority of present political leaders to assume the seats. The trend still continues when churches are still being used as the platform for political campaigns.  The Office of the Attorney General through its boss Dorcas Oduor , has revealed that they receive about 60 registration requests for churches. In Rwanda , some of the churches were shut down on the basis of their doctrin...

Trained to lie: Time to take them out

A greater percentage of Kenya's population lives a hard life in the country while the remaining live a lavish life. "Hard living" is a song by Wailing Souls but among those in the streets of Kibra in Nairobi, Obunga in Kisumu, and Old Town in Mombasa, among other slums, it is an epitome of their livelihood. It is this reality, that those in the top ladder are satirizing. The remarks by Treasury Cabinet Secretary, Honourable John Mbadi on the majority of Kenyans consuming soda signifying the reduction in the high cost of living is unpalatable and apathetic.   Politicians in their cadres assume citizens subscribe to their ideologies only to later realize that the majority of Kenyans are awake.  The same speed and agility they have while speaking only makes Kenyan image to degenerate lest other countries alter their perception of what is Kenya. <script src="https://pl31036930.profitableratecpmnetwork.com/42/fb/6e/42fb6edaece576db30b03763452f3344.js...

SINGAPORE AND KENYA: DAY AND NIGHT

Kenya got its independence 1963 from the British colony, while Singapore got it two years in the month of August 9, 1965 from Malaysia after they had intense political differences which resulted to racial riots. Standing on the mirror line reflecting on the two countries between Kenya and Singapore, Kenya is extremely behind Singapore in terms of development.  Singapore hastily rose from third world country to first world country while Kenya still maintained the third world class.  Recently, Kenya's President Dr. William Ruto, is full of comparison statements: between Kenya and Singapore. Surprisingly, the phrase of boosting Kenya's world class has taken a beautiful twist where every politician is dreaming of Kenya to be futuristically the same level as Singapore. Pausing a bit, what's a dream? pondering on this; a dream literally means imaginary events while sleeping.  Our politicians are forgetting the dogmatic saying that goes 'action speaks louder than...
