Go Kenya...GOOOO!!!!!
Mention Kenya and you hear all the reports that are attributed to this land, a nation whose people are under God. Talk of Athletes, wildlife, best climate, arable land, mineral resources among other positive attributes....for now let's not dwell on the negative.
A journey had began to allow Kenyans enjoy the sovereignty that some enjoy and other have been silently enduring despite them being great contributors to the liberation of this land, not only liberating but also being law abiding citizens who pay taxes and contribute to the growth of this nation.
We see a picture of a great nation of Kenya, we see another of a renown contributor whose input has given Kenyans the voice and freedom they now enjoy. Among the many people who fought for the liberation and freedom of this nation including the first president of this nation H.E the President Jomo Kenyatta, comes Dedan Waciuri Kimathi. Among his photos that are publicly shared, most depict a man in chains and bondage and whose nation has been deprived the sovereignty that it deserves. Being a republic that democratically elects its leaders and has the three arms of governments, other structures and agencies; it's still evident that Kenya is still ignored and subjected to undue humiliation by other nations and international organizations, specifics are not needed to drive the point home.
This being part of an ongoing demonstration, FALIHEIN is seeking the British government to release information that for over half a century has been classified on the actual place where the remains of this Kenyan (Dedan Kimathi) who is recognized worldwide as a true hero were buried so that he is accorded a proper burial as it is deserved. FALIHEIN and other like minded Kenyans will not relent until the Kimathi family is honored through a proper burial of their father, husband, mentor, brother, relative and hero. Other fallen heroes will be at peace in their resting place and Kenya will then be freed from bondage.

A TREE FOR A BIRTHDAY CAMPAIGN
A TREE FOR A
BIRTHDAY CAMPAIGN
The Forest
area (% of land area) in Kenya was last reported at 6.09 in 2010, according to
a World Bank report published in 2012. Forest area is land under natural or
planted stands of trees of at least 5 meters in situ, whether productive or
not, and excludes tree stands in agricultural production systems (for example,
in fruit plantations and agroforestry systems) and trees in urban parks and
gardens.
The
government has targeted to reach 10% tree coverage standard set by United
Nations and in line with that, Family Life Healing Initiative through
their partnership with The president’s award scheme has set to provide
their input to realize that goal. Under the initiative ‘project mrembo’ that reaches out to girls in less
visible and privileged parts of Kenya, empowering participants and their
communities, increasing their sense of civic responsibility, and reducing
incidences of early pregnancy, early marriages and HIV and AIDS.A team of volunteers in the program have embarked on
a campaign where they are now planting trees with individuals in the community
whose birthdays fall within a certain date in an year. A question may be asked,
why birthdays? Well, birthdays mark celebration of life among many people and
in most cases one would want to have such memorable moments that would mark
such occasions. Apart from eating birthday cakes and having birthday cards or
other niceties, planting tree(s) and in this case annually is a sure way of
celebrating and propelling life and in preserving flora and fauna. The campaign
is expected to significantly contribute to having more trees planted in Kenya
annually as people celebrate their birthdays annually.
A
foundational project was started at Marurui, in Roysambu constituency, Nairobi County
with backing of the local administration through the chief’s office who was in
attendance to participate in the initiative. Also in attendance was the
director of Family Life Healing Initiative – FALIHEIN, Mr. John Mburu
and beneficiaries of project Mrembo Initiative.
