ICC Ruling: Is it the end of poll violence?

Most residents welcomed the ruling, calling it a positive development, since the government had failed to persecute the perpetrators of the violence. Some did not like the idea, because it reminded them of 2007. Nairobi experienced a lot of violence and

When Justice Ekaterina Trendafilova read the much awaited ruling on Jan. 23, 2012, committing Uhuru Kenyatta, William Ruto, Francis Muthaura and Joshua Arap Sang to trial for crimes against humanity, the decision not only changed the murky Kenyan political arena but also opened up old wounds among Kenyans. Apart from bringing to trial the head of the public service, and two leading candidates for the presidencyone being a sitting deputy prime ministerthe ruling made at pretrial Chamber 2 at the International Criminal Court also brought some sense of both hope and fear in the areas mostly affected by the post-election violence of 2007. Kibera, which witnessed some of the worst incidents during the post-election vio-

that the decisions issued by this Chamber today, bring peace to the people of the Republic of Kenya.
Ekaterina Trendafilova ICC Judge

Kibera was the epicentre of it, Priscilla Nyokabi, executive director of Kituo Cha Sheria, said. It will be so bad if Kibera is not made to feel a sense of justice. Other observers say that because events in Kibera and Kisumu have been omitted in the ruling, victims in those places have effectively been silenced. Scores in the slum followed the proceedings on radio and television. The streets were virtually throughout the morning and part of the afternoon during the day the ruling was supposed to be made. Residents chose to remain indoors though later small groups of people could be seen discussing the outcome. Being an election year, most of them could only wish for peace. They dont wish to see what they saw during the violence. Lillian Adhiambo, a mother of five who lives in the Gatwekera area and witnessed the violence welcomed the verdict even though it was a reminder of what she saw in 2007. I ran away and sought refuge at the showground, as it was too dangerous to live here at that time, she said.

And even until now my chest has a problem from the teargas that I inhaled and to date the government has not shown any commitment in dealing with the culprits of the violence. Following the ruling there have been calls to have the Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and Head of Civil Service Ambassador Francis Muthaura resign from Government from all corners of the country as questions mount on the legality of Kenyatta and Rutos presidential candidacy. Attorney General Githu Muigai in a press conference, however, said that they will continue holding their offices for the time being. Even as the ICC process produces a new twist each day like a Mexican soap opera, one group of people has been completely ignored the victims of the post-election violence. There is also the question as to whether this is the end of politically instigated violence which become the norm since the first multiparty elections held in 1992. Five years after the violence, thousands are CONTINUED ON LAST PAGE

Kibera School for Girls begins expansion

By David Otieno
Girls in Kibera slums have a new reason to smile after the slums only tuition free girls school moved to bigger premises as part of its expansion strategy. The move will increase accessibility to quality education for young girls. The ceremony marking the official opening of the new Kibera School for Girls building and the Shining Hope water tower took place on Jan. 6, 2012. It was attended by the American Ambassador Scott Gration, his wife Judy, and the president of the Newmans Own Foundation, Robert Forrester Guests at the opening included the local community, leaders, representatives from other NGOs and the press. They were treated to an array of talent from the girls through dances, poems and plays, as well as inspiring remarks from Shining Hope founders, Jessica Posner and Kennedy Odede. Ambassador Gration, Bob Forrester and Margaret Patricelli, the Chair of the Shining Hope Board of Directors also spoke. One parent who spoke through an interpreter could not hide her joy when she narrated how her child had inspired her since joining the school in 2010. I cannot speak English myself, but I get inspired every time I hear my seven-year-old girl speak it like she was born with it in her mouth, she said. CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO

ISSUE 6: PAGE 2 Why there is no progress in the fight against sexual offences
One of the major steps taken to stamp out sexual offences gender based violence by the government is passing the sexual offences act brought by then nominated M.P Njoki Ndungu. This was a major step to reducing these cases although there still exists several challenges especially in the slums where the cases are prevalent as there lacks coordination to oversee the implementation of the act. Policing is virtually inexistent in the slums providing an avenue to perpetrators to commit these acts and people will tell you that most of the cases go unreported. For instance no single police station exists inside Kibera slum even though close to one million people live there. The nearest one is Kilimani police station that is kilometres away. Finally there is lack of knowledge and government failure to lay proper strategies to sensitize citizens on the benefits of the sexual offence act.

KIBERA OPINION MIRROR

Government should rise to the occasion and deal with the violence of 2007 .
The confirmation cases at the International criminal court that commited deputy prime minister Uhuru Kenyatta, Head of Civil service Francis Muthaura, William Ruto and Joshua Arap Sang to trials for crimes against humanity is a clear example of how the government has failed to show commitment in prosecuting the perpetrators of the post election violence of 2007. Even as the saga takes a new twist everyday the victims of the violence seem to be completely forgotten as the debate has shifted as to whether Uhuru and Ruto should run while thousands still languish in IDP camps as others still nurse the woulds they suffered during the violence. We should be ashamed of ourselves for forgetting so fast and concentrating on an upcoming election when we have not sorted issues that arose from the previous one.

Self-confidence 101- Your success highly depends on it

Andrew Otemba
Self-confidence is the difference between feeling unstoppable and feeling scared out of your wits. To young people this is commonly referred to as swag. How you perceive yourself has an impact on how others perceive you. Perception is reality - the more confident you are, the more likely it is youll succeed. There are a number of things you can consciously do to build selfconfidence. By using these strategies you can get the mental edge you need to reach your potential. 1. Dress Sharp Clothes can affect the way you feel about yourself. When you dont look good, it changes the way you carry yourself. This doesnt mean you must spend a lot on clothes. One rule is spend twice as much, buy half as much. Rather than buying a bunch of cheap clothes, buy half as many select, high quality items. In long run this decreases spending because expensive clothes wear out less easily and stay in style longer. 2. Walk Faster One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk. Is it slow and tired or is it energetic and purposeful? Confident people have places to go, people to see, work to do. Even if you arenot in a hurry, add some pep in your step. 3. Have Good Posture Similarly, the way a person carries herself tells a story. People with slumped shoulders and lethargic movements display a

lack of self-confidence. They are unenthusiastic about what they are doing and they dont consider themselves important. By practicing good posture, youll automatically feel more confident. Stand up straight, keep your head up, and make eye contact. 4. Practice Gratitude When you focus too much on what you want, the mind creates reasons why you cant have it. This leads you to dwell on your weaknesses. The best way to avoid this is consciously focusing on gratitude. Set aside time each day to mentally list everything you have to be grateful for. 5.Make a Personal Commercial One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to a motivational speech. Unfortunately, opportunities to listen to a speaker are rare. You can fill this need by creating a personal commercial. Write a 30-60 second speech that highlights your strengths and goals. 6. Compliment other people When we think negatively about ourselves, we often project that feeling on to others in the form of insults and gossip. To break this cycle of negativity, get in the habit of praising other people. Refuse to engage in backstabbing gossip and make an effort to compliment those around you. In the process, you will become well liked and build self-confidence. 7. Speak up During group discussions many people never speak up because theyre afraid that people will judge them for saying something stupid. This fear isnt justified. People are more accepting than we imagine. By making an effort to speak up at least once in every group discussion, youll become a better public speaker, more confident in your own thoughts, and recognized as a leader by your peers. 8. Work out Physical fitness has an effect on self-confidence. If youre out of shape, youll feel insecure, unattractive, and less energetic. By working out, you improve your physical appearance, energize yourself, and accomplish something positive. 9. Focus on contribution Too often we get caught up in our own desires. If you stop thinking about yourself and concentrate on the contribution youre making to the rest of the world, you wont worry as much about you own flaws.

Picture this
A man walks into a bank in Nairobi and asks for the loan officer. He tells the loan officer that he is going abroad on business for four weeks and needs to borrow 5,000. The bank officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, and so the man hands over the keys of a Mercedes Benz S class 500 parked on the street in front of the bank. The banks president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the man for using a KSH 15 Million Mercedes Benz as collateral against a KSH 5,000 loan. Four weeks later, the man returns, repays the KSH 5,000 and the interest, which comes to KSH 150.41.The loan officer asks him says, Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multi millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow KSH 5,000? The man replies: Where else in Nairobi can I park my car for four weeks for only KSH 150.41 and expect it to be there when I return?

Kibera School for Girls begins expansion

U.S Ambassador Gration reiterated the commitment of his government to combat poverty and disease in Africa. He cited the large number of children that die every day from preventable diseases like cholera. More assistance is needed, he said. Currently the U.S is the largest donor of funds in the fight against AIDS in Kenya. The school, which opened in 2009, was originally located in a building that had only eight classrooms, built with the help of community members. The new school has a total of 22 classrooms. It is better furnished. Enrollment was increased from 64 to 100 students at the beginning of the year. Also speaking during the occasion Robert Forrester, president of Newman's Own Foundation, commended the efforts Shining Hope for Communities in solving the complex problems of Kibera. "Shining Hope for Communities is a great example of an organization working within the community to effect change. He said. Founded by the late actor and philanthropist Paul Newman, the foundation has been a major donor to the school's umbrella organization, Shining Hope for Communities, since 2010. Besides the school, Newman's Own funding has gone toward health and sanitation services, and skill training provided to the people of Kibera through its Johanna Justin-Jinich Community Clinic and the Shining Hope Community Center. The 100,000 litre water tower, built in a partnership with Safe Water Network, was also opened. It is now the single largest source of clean water in Kibera. The Kibera Mirror is also a project sponsored by Shining Hope for Communities.

ONE ON ONE Anthony Kimani

At just 21, he was appointed captain of Mathare united and during that season they clinched the Kenya premier league title. Today Anthony Kimani is fast becoming a household name in the Kenyan football circles and has been capped 9 times by the National team Harambee stars. Kibera Mirror caught up with him at the Goan institute grounds in Pangani where his team was having a practice session in preparation for the upcoming 2012 Kenya premier league season and had a one on one with him. We have been told you are known as Modo Ha-ha, I think they abbreviated it from Kimani. Before I joined Mathare united there was a player before me called Alex Kimani and when he left for the U.S. they called me Modo, just as they used to call him and it stuck. Who is Alex Kimani? Kimani is someone from a humble background. I grew up between Kariobangi and Korogocho slums. I attended our lady of Fatima primary school my friends introduced me to Mathare youth sports association (MYSA). I started playing soccer at a tender age of 8. I have never looked back and I dont regret the decision. During that time one of my friends had a chance to fly to Norway courtesy of football. This made me realize how football can take you places and I became more serious. In 1999, I also had my chance of going to Norway and when I saw how soccer can change your life I decided to become a professional footballer. What does it entail to be a captain of a team playing top flight soccer? Basically it is to give direction to the team both on and off the pitch. I help to solve the players grievances and also as captain you have to give motivation to the team even when things are not going according to plan. For instance if you are losing, the captain should be a believer until the final whistle is blown. You play for the National team Harambee stars. How do you feel everytime you put on the Kenyan jersey? I can tell you Its the best feeling ever for sports man. Putting on the colours of our National Flag is the biggest privilege I have ever heard. Every time I am in the stadium and I hear the National Anthem being played I feel some tears coming. Maybe it is just me but I know each player feels that way. Dou you suffer from fright whenever you enter a packed stadium? The first time I played for Kenya was against Guinea at the Nyayo Stadium. The coach told me to man Forreman Sare who is playing the French league. He has exposure and I had just come from the premier league. The butterflies have to be there but you need to be confident and believe in God as

Speaking of the African cup of nations which team do you think will win? Ghana Is it because you support it or you think it will win? I support the Ivory Coast, they have several stars in the squad but they lack team work. I think Ghana will go all the way. Back to Kenya. The Kenyan premier league has over the past few years improved greatly since super sport came in. however most people still identify themselves with the English premier league. What can be done to grow it further? It starts with you and me. We first need to change our attitude towards local football and appreciate our talent. The fact is it would take time, even great teams like Manchester united started somewhere. If Kenyans start supporting local football you can be sure it will grow. Look at the music industry for example, local artists were the first ones to go professional and football has followed suit. The football scene in Kenya has been charactised by wrangles in the past and since the elections last year that made Sam Nyamweya the President, we have not seen any changes. Do you think KFF is serious? Change does not come like express coffee. Let us give them time and give them all the support. If we want to judge them we can do that in future. Who is your role model internationally? Fabio Canavarho. I am a defender like him and his skills are amazing. I have learnt a lot from him. What are your aspirations as a player? To break ranks, I have been playing in the KPL for some years now and its time I look for other challenges. I would be happy to play in Europe Do you have a dream team? Currently I am looking for stepping stones but my dream is real Madrid. If I wake up tomorrow and find myself in Spain alongside Christiano Ronaldo I would be very happy. Off the pitch what else do you do? I have a shop in town that I run and I also go to the gym in the evenings. I have also done some web designing so hopefully if my career ends I will not miss something to do. To those young kids who want to be like you. What advice can you give them First discipline is paramount; there are no two ways about that. 2nd you have to believe in yourself and work hard. And also put God above everything you do, you wont fail

Mathare United Captain and Harambee Stars defender Anthony Kimani Modo stretches his muscles during a practice session at The Goan Institute on January 23. He believes that with more support local football can grow to European standards. [Photo: Kizito Nadebu] He cant let you down during such moments. Even the captain Dennis Oliech will inform when he steps on the pitch he feels jittery and afterwards he copes. We have also seen Oliech's brother Kevin and the guy with a red car, Jamal Mohamed. How do you feel playing alongside players like them? It is both an honour and privilege. I used to play with Jamal some time back and I can say he is very talented. Infact he is one of the best midfielders Kenya has ever produced. An since he has been a professional player abroad he brings new skills to the team and each time you play with him you wont miss learning one or two things. Mathare united last won the premier league in 2008 and last season you finished in the 12th position. How do you see yourself performing this coming season? Last year funny enough even though we finished in the 12th position, we performed very well. We lost very few games, four or five. We had very solid defending as most of our games ended up in draws. The only thing we were lacking is finding the net but the coach has brought in new offending players like Jamal. He is a very creative guy and I believe he will help us in pushing the ball forward so this time round we will score several goals. Kenya is not in the current African cup of nations and it is a big shame considering the quality of talent that the Harambee stars have in their squad. Funny enough Uganda even beats us nowadays. Where is the problem? The problem is lack of seriousness in the organization of the team. You find the team being assembled just a week before a crucial game. Like in the guinea Bissau game, the game was supposed to be on Saturday but we travelled on Thursday and since there were many stop overs we arrived on the morning of the game day at 5 am in the morning and we still had to acclimatize ourselves with the climate and practice before the game. It was very tricky so in future if we can avoid such things our game will improve.

the demolitions. Some were undecided but when it came to being resettled at Promised Land they all moved out. The residents are buying mortgages through co-operative societies to enable them own houses in future, he added. He further added that in the new apartments the residents only pay 1000 shillings per month as rent and at Soweto they were paying between 700 and 1000 shillings. However scores of affected residents insist that the new houses constructed by the government were not enough and some people were left behind with a promise that the issue would be addressed, leading to a fierce court battle between them and the government that climaxed with them being thrown out. Mercy Mwende is one such resident. When people were moved to the new houses, it was realized that the houses were not enough and others returned including me. Furthermore it is tough living in the new houses as three families stay in one unit. How do you survive in such conditions? The government has just shown it doesnt care about the poor. The people who ordered this are right now in their expensive bungalows when I have nowhere to go with my 4 children, she explains bitterly.

Thousands still homeless amidst conflicting statements on the Soweto demolition

By Kizito Nadebu
Two weeks after the government moved to demolish houses at Soweto in Kibera, it is still unclear what was the motive behind the early morning incidents that left thousands homeless. A government bulldozer plowed its way into the slum amidst tight security from the police after the expiry of a five-day notice issued by the city council. Families were left homeless wondering what to do following the ruling on the court injunction about the disputed piece of land that had provided them temporary immunity for some years. Desperate mothers struggled to salvage what they could from their houses. They were joined by men who tried to carry away the iron sheets and other building materials that they managed to salvage. There have been conflicting reports on the legality of the demolitions. The government insists that the demolitions were necessary to pave the way for new buildings un-

The government partnered with the United Nations to construct 600 units in phase one of the program and so those living there were doing so illegally. One of the supervisors in charge of the new apartments who did not want his identity disclosedonly the Ministry of Housing may officially speak to the pressinsists that all the people from the disputed area were

relocated to the new apartments and those living there came from other slums. An identification process was done and after the first relocation. I can confirm no single person remained in those houses but at some stage politics and what you are seeing now is a result of the political meddling, he said. He further insists that since it is a community development project, consultations were made involving all the stakeholders, including the resettlement executive committee and the UN-Habitat. We informed them before vacating the houses on the dos and donts, the rent to be paid and all issues regarding the improvement of the living standards through decent housing, he said. Everything was discussed extensively and nobody should claim the governments decision to demolish the shanties was wrong. There was a protocol followed in which workshops were conducted and the residents were given questionnaires to fill and were asked if they were for

Children's home grown on faith

Like its name suggests Neema Children's home now provides a safe haven for children living with HIV/AIDS even though it was started without any source of funding
Six years ago Mr. Joshua Mbithi, a minister in the Africa Inland Church, and his spouse Miriam Mbithi had just retired from 20 years of service in a childrens home in Eldoret. They didnt know what lay ahead for them. As Mr. Mbithi puts it, Simply and plainly its a call from God. God led us to start a home for HIV/ AIDS infected and affected children. The couple presented a proposal to the appropriate agencies to open a group home in Elgon View Estate off Old Nairobi Road. In an interview, Mr. Mbithi says he had to answer many questions about the home. But the most fundamental was whether he was prepared to bury the children. The panelists believed at the time that children afflicted with AIDS were bound to succumb to the disease. Yes, Mr. Mbithi answered, he was prepared to bury the children. He believed God would grant them grace to go through the pain of death. A second question was how the home was to be funded. His answer: We pray and believe in God for provisions. On 30th April 2005, they opened the doors of the Neema Childrens Home in their six-bedroom house to four-year-old Bruce Nzioka. Bruce has since been adopted, but the home continues to thrive. Today, the home has of 42 children, the oldest 14 years and the youngest only a month. Twenty-eight are girls and 14 are boys. Neema can accommodate as many as 50 children. There is a permanent staff of 12, and eight additional casual workers who fill in when necessary. antiretroviral therapy (ARVs). By the time the children were ready to occupy a new fouryear-old facility within his compoundbuilt in 2007the Mbithis had housed 17 children in their house for two years. The home has recorded only two deaths. Caring for these children isnt easy. A few minutes before our interview Mbithi had rushed a sick boy to hospital. Whenever a child is sick, Miriam medically monitors the patient. If the situation worsens, they take the child to a doctor for further diagnosis. This is basically where we work because it keeps us on our toes, day and night Mbithi says. Most of the children come from the Academic Model for Providing Access to Health Care (AMPATH) Eldoret. When children are abandoned and end up at AMPATH, the social workers there develop a case history for the child and thereafter contact the District Childrens Officer, who in turn contacts the home for approval, or at the same time liaising with the childrens magistrates. The process usually takes a week, and the transfers are made on Thursdays. It costs over Shs400,000 every month to pay utility bills, salaries, food and so on. Three years ago they began a school within the compound. The school runs from nursery to class eight with 78 pupils, 33 from the

are still living in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps across the country. The organizers of the violence have not been held accountable. When delivering the ruling ICC Pre-trial chamber 2 presiding judge Ekaterina Trendafilova said she hoped it would bring peace to the country. It is our utmost desire that the decisions issued by this chamber today, bring peace to the people of the Republic of Kenya, she said. Some of the people interviewed by the Kibera Mirror in Kibera said the acquittal of former police boss Hussein Ali brings a general feeling that the police have been absolved of any wrongdoing even when most of the killings that took place in Kibera and Kisumu were carried out by them. According to Sam Nyaisura, he is happy on the developments at the Hague and the acquittal of Ali is not an issue although the police should be held accountable. I was here in 2007 and even witnessed the uprooting of the railway and everyone knows that the police who came here shot a lot of people, he adds. Kibera and Kisumu experienced some of the most brutal attacks in the violence that followed the December 2007 presidential election. The Commission of Inquiry into the Post-Election Violence, set up in February 2008 to investigate the violence found that, overall, the police killed 405 of a total of 1,100 people who died during the violence, and injured a further 557. The vast majority of these killings by police are thought to have occurred in Kibera and Kisumu. However ICC prosecutor Moreno Ocampo reiterated that even though he would not be filing an appeal, he is going to conduct a fresh round of investigations into the cases against Ali and Kosgey. However it remains to be seen whether they would yield any results since the crimes were committed five years ago or whether for the first time in 20 years Kenya would hold a fair election free of violence.

A noble ministry
It is a noble ministry that gives joy and also tears. Though they get tired, spiritual strength keeps them going. Mbithi remembers how hopeless, now six years old, Sharons case was. She was never to live, he says, she was so badly off. But today she is a vibrant healthy girl who stands up tall. Another case is that of Seth Sawe who was brought to the home a month old, weighing only one kilogram. Meithei's daughter Esther removed the clothes from one of her small dolls clothes fitted Sawe, but they still hung loosely on him. The homes neighbors have been generous. One family has regularly given the home five trays of eggs every two weeks and 600 pieces of queen cakes in every two months. Another family gives 20 loaves of bread every week, Mbithi says, The community is very supportive, they encourage us, we dont feel like we are intruders or a threat to them . God provides.

Simply and plainly its a
