who is going to look into women's sexuality, reproductive health rights at a serious level? the countdown report was releazed yesterday and shows that 21 kenyan women die daily while giving birht for lack of access to emergence care and shortage of midwives. honestly all women during child delivery need skilled workers around them and access to facilities in case of an emergency. the report shows that many mothers are giving birth at home under the care of birth attendant (skilled and unskilled).

At times when I wake up and make my way to the office like millions of others Kenyans do every morning I always ask myself, what if Kenya was free of corruption where would I be? Would all these women and men be walking to work? Would we still have this crazy traffic jam that takes up an average of 3 hours, what a waste of time and human resources? Where we are as a country in terms of development, is that the full potential of Kenya or she ought to be way ahead? Corruption is like a cancer that is finishing us slowly but surely.

BLACK WOMAN

Naked woman, black woman

Clothed with your colour which is life, with your form which is beauty!

In your shadow I have grown up; the gentleness of your hands was laid over my eyes.

And now, high up on the sun-baked pass, at the heart of summer, at the heart of noon,

I come upon you, my Promised Land,

And your beauty strikes me to the heart like the flash of an eagle.

Naked woman, dark woman

Firm-fleshed ripe fruit, sombre raptures of balck wine, mouth making lyrical my mouth

But the institute story is for another day.

Times sure heals wounds and as time goes by, as Kenyans we may have moved on but that does not mean we have forgotten what happen during the 2007 elections. Commissions have come and gone, reports and recommendations have been made and submitted to the relevant authorities, but nothing much seems to happen. As Kenyans, we seem to have given up and we are not questioning the government..................................Read more on the attached document, Who is to Blame. Remember to give your comments and inputs which are highly appreciated.
