Fifteen members of the Migori County Assembly and some county staff were rushed to various private hospitals in Mombasa County on Sunday after a cholera scare.

They were suffering from diarrhoea and vomiting.

FOOD POISONING

Other MCAs also rushed to hospital for vaccination against cholera due to an outbreak that has so far killed four people in Mombasa.

A doctor who treated the ward representatives said they were all treated for food poisoning.

"Basically, this means that the food they ate was not cooked well that is why they suffered from food poisoning. We treated quite a number of them who thought it was cholera but we confirmed it's not," said the doctor who requested anonymity.

Joseph Hoyo, an MCA from Makerero Ward in Kuria West, said they ate meat, chicken, fish, rice and chapati at a hotel on Saturday night and afterwards they began feeling unwell.

CHOLERA SCARE

"We were booked at a hotel in Mombasa for three days induction. We were 57 MCAs but only 15 MCAs were affected. I almost died due to diarrhoea and vomiting. I was the most affected. The rest were afraid of me; they thought I had cholera," said Mr Hoyo.

He demanded his medical report to dispatch it to his private doctor in Nairobi.

"I have booked a flight to Nairobi. I want to go for further medical examination," added Mr Hoyo.

Masaba MCA William Abedi said general observation points to contaminated food. He said he was not sick as he did not eat at the hotel.

Mt Kenya enjoys a large population and a great popular vote. However, despite the numbers, the region is still a weeping giant. but why is it so? Now voting system determines the king making process therefore continuity in leadership is a major definition to it. For a record of time, the most powerful politicians in Kenya, enjoys re-election, not because they accomplish everything but because those who vote for them understand that one day, they will sit in the high table and bargain on their behalf. As we are speaking Mount Kenya has not groomed her leaders and the mountain is weeping. also read https://bit.ly/3fY4Sn4 We are just bragging about our eight million votes but truth be told, it’s not about the numbers but the leaders. A ship is able to navigate even in a stormy sea not because of it is bigger than the sea, but because the captain behind the wheel understands the navigation dashboard. And so is leadership. Hard facts. We don’t elect leaders to have an immedia...

Jubilee will Fool Kenyans Again

Jubilee is Fooling Kenyans Again It's alleged that Jubilee will 'clean the house today'. Some of us will give in to the 5th level of mind (poor mind) that the outcome is to favor me and you. But the truth is that our maths are already done. 'The true lie' is already made and we will sing it like national anthem. Our emotions will be carried away by simple mind tricks. We will be fooled again only to realize on June 1st ( Foolsday). The future of Kenya is not in Jubilee. The future or Kenya is not in ODM. The future of Kenya is in you and me. Parties are there to make some territorial leadership. Whoever got the number got the say. We don't the need number. We don't need the say. We need development. We need jobs. We need good hospitals that even the leaders building them will be comfortable being treated in the same hospitals they built. Its ironical how many people believe this political goons in the name of 'Mtu wetu'. The syndrome will...
