Step aside mura Werema please

          Novelist Henrik Ibsen said, “The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone. This time around my brother and learned bro, Judge Freddie Werema won’t stand even alone. He’s always been a good company of the one who appointed him to mug and bully others. Looking at the mess he’s in, I doubt. Jake Kiquette won’t continue to support and protect him anymore.  Hell no. He won’t let his name keep on being blotted simply because his appointee doesn’t want to face the reality.

          I recently came to light that the boxer lawyer, who also doubles as a butcher, nearly punished Madam Sophy Lion after the duo disagreed on dual citizenship. The lady’s for the dual citizenship while they judge’s against. Ironically, the good lawyer doesn’t know that dual citizenship is not a favour or an offer but a right for boozers. If rich countries such as US, Canada, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Australia you name it can allow paupers from Africa, Asia and elsewhere to have dual citizenship, what’s Bongo afraid? Sheer fear of course!

          History has it that Sophy’s neither Werema’s first nor last. It started with Swiss ambassador, Olivier Chave, when he said that the power that- be doesn’t join forces with his country to return billions of dosh stashed in offshore banks in his country and elsewhere. Given that lawyer’s job is to defend suspects and criminals, Werema sprang into action to defend govt-favoured- dosh stashers.  Being a govt’s chief counsel, many wondered what he had in common with known and stinking criminals. Many wrongly goofed thinking that this was an end. Nay, it was the beginning.

          Thereafter, the good Mura took on Dev Kafulila whom, apart from threatening to give a beating, he, so too, wanted to behead after calling him a simian. It takes two to tango.  Though Kafulila is not that sane, this time he’s wronged. Remember. Chave and Kafulila’s sage weren’t the first ones. The good mura’s already answered some hishimiwas’ questions using callous language so as to raise a few and some eyebrows.

          After intimidating madam Sophy, many are waiting to see what his lawyer, madam Speaker Anna Makidamakida, will say given that this time the one assaulted is a woman and a member of the establishment. So too, many are waiting to see what Jake will do to assure his ministers that they’re safer from his bullying fella.

          If Jake still needs the guy in ulaji he’d see to it that he sends him to boozers so that they can teach him some conflict resolution skills. Boozers quarrel now and then. Again, they don’t exchange punches. For, they know. Doing so will invite cops who’ll charge them with trumped up charges or make a killing out of them. To skilfully avoid losses, boozers have trained and enlightened themselves in Conflict Resolution Skills especially communication and some techniques of managing conflict skilfully and reasonably. It is pity and unbecoming for the so-called learned brother to lack Conflict Management know how. This means. If such a person can’t know how to go about such simple issues, his education is wanting. It creates many qualms. Thus, mura Werema needs to prove he’s educated not by words but by actions. Yeah, actions speak louder than words. This is the norm. If your actions show you’re but a goon, even if you stand on the top of the roof and shout that you’re enlightened, it is in vain. American psychologist Carl Rogers once said, “The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.” If, indeed, Werema is truly educated, he needs to change. Failure to change means witlessness will always haunt him.

          One of the changes Werema needs to display is step aside so that those with qualities and hearts serve. Enough is enough especially at this time Werema’s image is epitomized with fracas, brouhaha, hounding, spite, uncouthness you name it. Bro Werema, step aside please. If you cling unto ulaji, one day you’ll be shown the door unceremoniously so as to mark you fall from grace. Who wants this to happen to him or her? I know Sophy. She may keep mum in order to defend the integrity of the party. Again, given that fighting is in your blood, I would suggest that you open a boxing club to enjoy the game like most, fighting, quarreling and better than thou. Importantly, you need to understand. The rules of the game in politics are different from masochism.
