Folks, People get an education as a basic means to gain knowledge so they are able to get through ways and means to have things done and reach goals in life. Education does not end in class; it is a daily process of learning and there is no end to learning. Every day new ideas and technology emerges and people continue learning from those new inventions. English language grammar was also invented by someone, and new ones are also in daily use; like sheng and rap which have no grammatical connotations, sentimental lyrics or theories to back their existence in their emergence but as can be seen are taking youth generation by storm because it has become their acceptance way of communication and in music. Every tradition and culture have their owns ways etc., People who cannot debate logically and effectively to deliberate issues with ease, in many cases lacks substance and have loose brain. To impress other fools, they behave like they have the mastery of English grammar and that they are Engineers of some sort....In social networking, who cares who they are.......who care which school they went........who cares what level they achieved......????......They need to know that what matters is, how they associate, motivate and interact with the rest in social networking.......Oduors' constant pegging and put down is completely irrelevant, inconceivable and is insignificant in Social gathering since many forum networking people belong to different school of thoughts and are diverse with varied categories of understanding..........and not all have degrees, masters or PHDs.... In social gathering or association, really, no one is interested or wants to know what scholarly prowess one has, it is mchanganyiko maalum......open and free for all to share…...I don't care which format grammar or otherwise one wants to express themselves.........So, what does it matter if Warsama is a Form 2 Dropout or he completed form 4 or went through the University.......?..........Is he not communicating and we understand what he is putting across???? Therefore, if someone wants to bang people about their education, you need to look and observe that person critically and you will notice that the person is not complete in the head. You will find that the person has critical mental disorders and that, such people could be missing crucial screws and have some loose nuts in his head. In many cases; in Luo we say........"Somo obwoge" because he is coming from a poor and primitive backward background, or in a family that people never went to school and he is the only one who chanced the opportunity to go to school.......so he pictures people in the same lens with those primitive around him……and that is why you will find that people like Maurice Oduor keeps bragging about correcting people's English Grammar, being in Canada and is a Water Engineer etc.,. He thinks Canada is some strange country like having a ticket to heaven. Sad to say, Maurice Oduor must be suffering from inferiority complex and would probably need some class for reality check. Education is information and information is power. It is a tool people use to share, motivate or empower others in order that, together we are able to unite and engage in activities that are for progressive development which will improve our destiny; and not about put down of some English grammar by some poor primitive trifling of inconsequential. Real people who have schooled and gained the education are well informed and polished. Such people hardly talk about their education, they don't show off who they are, or brag around; why? Because they understand and know what education is all about and will have no problem understanding those they engage with without any difficulties.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'm running an Opinion Poll here. How many people here believe that according to Warsama's behaviour here, he's actually a Form 2 dropout who bribed his way into a job at Daily Nation? The guy has never shown us one simple attribute that he's a college or university graduate. He belongs in the old tradition of who-you-know or how-much-money-you-can-pay to get the job.
Let him show us his academic credentials.
Courage, Oduor Maurice
