Moi University has an arena of sports activities ranging from athletics, table tennis, football, volleyball, hand ball and rugby among others. These sports are meant to nurture their talents as well keep their body fit.  Clinton  Mutali the MUSO director for sports  says student s are supposed  to participate in sports activities to nurture their talents which eventually can be a good career one will earn a living with if passion and seriousness are considered. Clinton says most of the students participate in games within the school to calm the stress escalating from impromptu involvements. Either 35 percent out of 40 percent have broken relationships that still hurts them, 3 percent with problems of class work and 2 percent have home conflicts and poor background issues. Ann kahiga a psychiatrist at Moi university hospital advises students with psychiatric problems to participate fully in sports to revoke their stress and keep their body healthy. Everyone should do some practice regardless of the state he/she is in to either release off the workload to settle the brains  or even be flexible enough to respond to issues with ultimatum.

“Invest in the science complex laboratory “

A building at upper hill next to the Moi university administration block

It is a building that was stated in the year 1998 by world bank following a requisition by Moi university management of the need of a well-established science complex lab to enable students pursuing science courses have  enough practical’s  before getting into the field,  the construction was to be completed within two  years according  to Philip Chirchir the university  designing  officer  but then money was fraudulently  misused by senior directors  of the university.  Professor Barasa in his letter yesterday advised the management to put measures in place to wind up the building to ease congestion of students in a small laboratory at the school of biological science which serves students from the faculty of social science, biological science, engineering and education science. If this is done then Moi University will have their students doing more of practical’s unlike theories which they are used to.   

Fire tragedy at c-houses yesterday night.

A burning fence yesterday night at c- houses following an electricity blackout.

Angry students yesterday lit up the fire to burn the fence bordering their houses in response to power blackout that has lasted two days. The Cyprus fence burned down quickly something that led to an emergency call of fire extinguishers to help cub the menace. Celeb kenga, the finance director, was among the people who spilled water to the increasingly spreading fire. Students claimed to take a stun action against the management of the school if efforts will not be made in addressing the issue which appear to be a tragedy not only at c- houses but also at Soweto hostels where electric black-out is seen as a norm. many students cook from their rooms and therefore it becomes difficult for them to afford buying meals from the mess when there is a blackout because of the little money they are given by their parents to sustain them throughout the semester. It saddens to have the students in a “university of a difference”   going without meals for a couple of days. The relevant persons concerned should come and address this issue once and roll.  

Crusade at the stage

A session of praise and worship at the crusade

“Repent your sin for Jesus is coming soon” was the theme of the event. Many students turned up for what they believed getting born again. the preacher senior arch bishop Paul onjoro graced the function which lasted for 3 days, he laid hands on the sick, the broken hearted and those facing financial constraints.-this was evident on Sunday when several brethren stood on the podium to testify their miracles, Sarah Magusu a 3^rd year student taking a bachelors of arts degree in special needs received her sight and expressed her joy of seeing the new earth. Sarah said it is good to trust in the lord and constantly pray to him. it is a crusade that has left a holistic environment in Moi university with few individuals getting to fracas to drink alcohol  and ladies dressing modesty for they have decided to adhere to the bible teachings. Will the students uphold   these Christian virtues even after the full blast crusade is over?        

Moi university students celebrate Valentine’s Day.

People celebrate valentine’s every 14^th day of the month of February. Couples and tender age teenagers uphold romance throughout the day. It is a day either a man or a lady buys a gift to his/her loved one. In Moi university students dressed red t-shirts while many were spotted purchasing rose flowers for their loved ones, as though this was not enough many ended up taking their girlfriends to refreshment places to take beer. Jacktone Wamalwa a bachelors of education arts student in his second year recalls how he over enjoyed and ended up spending all the cash he had in the  bank account in keeping  his sweetheart happy. At around 9.00pm many ladies geared towards hostel H for a common “reason” which could be seen on their forehead, a number of them slept at this hostel to seal the joy of the day.   

hasten the investigation process...

the criminal investigation department revealed to the public that the car used to mask kabete mp belonged to  our neighboring country Uganda,that alone is a milestone towards revealing the truth of who the owner is? the government should liaise with Uganda government and expose the cocoons who are after the lives of senior Kenyan politicians. their has been a series  of deaths to to members of high profile in Kenya  and unless an effort is made our country may  continue loosing people who are greatly serving the society in various capacities.

grant them security......

the kenya national union of teachers insists on transfer of teachers from the most insecure areas to regions that are well secure.its upon  the government to ensure that every kenyan is secure regardless of race , gender or religion.the government should beef up security for the safety of kenyan teachers who are doing these country a greater deal.
