The Kikuyu Tribal Rag a.k.a "The Nation" (Nyooba)

Some editor who had missed the memo published the photo of Raila in suit!!! The speed at which it was removed speaks for itself. They replaced it with the usual photo of Raila "the trouble-maker".

Who do these people think they are kidding? The clothes The Nation chooses to show Uhuru in mean nothing as long as his eyes show he's been drinking all night. Before the defenders come here to shout let them explain what the rationale for using and old campaign photo is when they have the latest and most relevant photo? Newspapers use old photos where they lack fresh photos or find the particular photo relevant to the story. In this case the fresh and relevant photo has been REPLACED with an old one!

The Photo that The Kikuyu Tribal Rag wants to present Raila in:


The Photo that The Standard has published and which the same rag had earlier published before the "owners" called:

It's all looks and false impressions for these fakers.  Smoke and mirrors kind of leadership.  Mara sharp suits, Mara crisp white shirts and red ties.  Then military fatigues designed to scare folks.... Such cartoons.  I note that DP is not DCIC....hehe

So where is the offending photo?

Have you read my post fully? I have linked two photos below. The first shows Raila addressing a rally and is taken from a an angle to show him and part of the crowd but carefully engineered not to show a large crowd (story for another day).

The second photo shows Raila in a suit upon arrival from Mozambique.

Now The Nation first published the second picture. The headline for the story was changed twice but on the third occasion they emerged with an old photo (the first one below).

Have you read my post fully?

Yes i did, but perhaps you should post the two photos side by side. I need to see the offending one.

I doubt I can do better than I have already.

  Please direct your anger to the offenders. Most of us Kikuyus are struggling, and not everyone supports the mafia gang.

The term "Kikuyu" does not only refer to Kikuyu people. It can describe something like a news rag.

Here is another Nation photo. A close up. You can count the pores on Raila's face. Need I explain the motive?

Is there something wrong? I posted these photos and they appear yet somehow other people don't seem to see them.

I couldn't see the first photo  ODM photo of Raila addressing a rally. I had to  tinker abit with your link ( url) to make it visible.

Any comment on the "Nation" (Nyooba) games? Is this what a free media should be engaged in? Getting partisan to the extent of getting ridiculous? Yet all Raila has to do is complain publicly and the paper is toast in most parts of Kenya.  I am getting closer to lobbying for a boycott. After all we have them insulting us and we don't have to pay them for it, do we?

The is the little detail of the paper being unqualified to address many of the issues that a majority of Kenyans have at heart, such as the domination of public service by one ethnic group. The paper is unqualified because it is worse than the present Uhuru government when it comes to tribalism in its ranks. It is therefore unthinkable that it would see some of the reforms proposed by Rails in any but hostile light. Yes it is formally owned by The Aga Khan but it is run by one ethnic group almost as a franchise.
