Afande,
It occurs to be that either you were not in Kenya during the 2007 or you have chsoen to take sides even on things that is public knowldge. The truth is, RAO, Ida Odinga, Charity Ngilu, James Orengo among other ODM stalwarts were actually at Serena, consulting on Cabinet appointments after RAO had opened a gap of 1M.
Now, on the post election violence and its planning, it didn't happen in a day. In fact, should you be interested in finding the truth, kindly take time and peruse through documented reports like Waki Report, KHRC among others and you'll realize that the chaos that erupted in 2008 was simply a culmination of strategies that had been planned more than 6 months in advance. Unfortunately, the evictions and ethnic attacks were inevitable regardless of whether RAO was declared the winner or not. It is also important to note that the ODM's call for mass action provided provided the much needed fuel that actual turned the fire and kept it burning up to February 28, 2012. ODM brigade also after realizing that the polls had been rigged found alreay loaded gun that they could use against their opinions. They simply need to (actually they did) fund it, though indirectly.
Anyway, however hard you read the book, I'm sure there is no way you are going to agree with Miguna. Let me know when you read about Yo-Yo man, Instant Billionaires and The fall out if you'll still hold the same opinion.

To jokers who still believe Miguna, I posted earlier about factual dishonesty as I continue to read the book.
Now here is another one;
Miguna says that ODM luminaries were clueless that PNU stalwarts were rigging elections at KICC because they ODMers were busy watching TV as they knew RAO had won the presidency.
Then at what time did it occur to ODM top brass to organize for PEV which broke out soon after Kiviutu announced the results ?
Clueless is the new catch phrase

TOP PRIORITY27 July 2012Mr. Mathew IteereThe Commissioner of PoliceKenya Police HeadquartersVigillance House, Harambee AvenueP.O. Box 30083Nairobi, KenyaBy email transmission to:Dear Sir,RE: REQUEST FOR 24-HOUR STATE SECURITY__________________________________________________This is my formal request for round-the-clock state security in view of the recent chilling threats to me and my family including the macabre burning and burial of my effigy and coffin in a mock funeral in Nyando lead by an ODM Member of Parliament Fred Otieno Outa and the apparent endorsement of those serious and criminal threats by the top leadership of the ODM and the failure of the relevant Kenyan authorities in apprehending and prosecuting the culprits as would be required in a country governed by the rule of law.Since launching my book, Peeling Back the Mask: A Quest for Justice in Kenya, on July 14, 2012, I have received several death threats and threats of serious bodily harm by short text messages and email transmissions from people I do not know. One chilling threat stated that upon my return to Kenya next month, I will be "assassinated and my kidneys eaten."My family and I take these threats very seriously. We believe that the recent media attacks on me; the character assassination; the almost daily and desperate pseudo psycho-analysis; and the deliberate concoction and publication of so-called "Miguna Files" in sections of the Kenyan media, deliberate and are intended to divert attention from the serious governance issues (particularly grand corruption and nepotism in and by the Office of the Prime Minister) raised in my book, but which some powerful figures, including, but not limited to the Prime Minister of the Republic of Kenya, would rather keep hidden from public scrutiny.Despite all the threats, the intimidations, the character assassinations and the daily gratuitous attacks in the media and the Internet, I shall return to Kenya on Thursday, August 16, 2012. My flight is scheduled to land at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport at 20:15 hours. I intend to continue with my chosen work of writing about and agitating for the respect for the rule of law, the upholding of the constitution (in letter and spirit), the respect for fundamental human rights, the expansion of the democratic space, the elimination of corruption, tribalism and nepotism (of all forms and shades) and the entrenchment and practice of good governance in Kenya. In other words, I am fortified and fully committed in the quest for justice in Kenya.Consequently, I hope and trust that your good offices will grant and deploy, for my protection and that of my family, 24-hour state security.I would be very grateful if you can assign adequate security for me upon my arrival at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on the date and time specified.I am forwarding this request electronically, through the Kenya Police email service, because I am currently on holiday and book tour/promotion in Canada.I look forward to your prompt and positive response.Yours very truly,MIGUNA MIGUNACc: The national and international media

Let them wear miniskirt.
Isn't only recently that our people started using the western style clothing, otherwise it was a few leaves or some well fashioned barks that were strung around our waist and only covered the 'exit' points.
Have you not seen those postcard with our women bare chested? In the western world they cannot be dispalyed in public.
I have gone to beaches where women walk naked in kenyan terms, but where would you appreciate? A place where women walk in miniskirts and they are rarely abused, raped and you do not need double walls, electric fences, watchmen, body armor, body guards and you can walk the streets anytime!

>What Shall I Wear?
>Samuele Bacchiocchi
>The desires to adorn the body with eye-catching clothes, costly jewelry, and colorful cosmetics have left few untouched. It is not surprising, therefore, that throughout biblical and Christian history there have been frequent calls to dress modestly and decently.
>The biblical teaching on dress and ornaments is especially relevant today when many in the fashion industry operate with little respect for the dignity of the human body as created by God. In this article, I shall present seven basic principles that can guide Christians in developing a philosophy of personal adornment. These principles are a result of studying biblical examples, allegories, and admonitions regarding clothing, jewelry, and cosmetics.1
>Principle One
>Dress and appearance are an important index of Christian character. Clothes and appearance are most powerful nonverbal communicators not only of socioeconomic status, but also of moral values. William Thourlby, an acclaimed clothing consultant who advises executives on "how to package yourself for success," points out that "consciously or unconsciously the clothing we wear reveal a set of beliefs about ourselves that we want the world to believe."2 The business world has long recognized the importance of clothing and appearance in marketing their products, services, and the image of their companies.
>The Bible also recognizes the importance of clothes. Implicitly, this is indicated by the symbolism of modest clothing used to represent God's provision of salvation ("garment of salvation," Isaiah 61:10; see also Revelation 3:18; 1 Peter 5:5),* and of immodest clothing used to represent spiritual adultery and apostasy (Ezekiel 23:40-42; Jeremiah 4:30; Revelation 17:4-6). Explicitly, this is indicated by the numerous stories, allegories, and admonitions regarding appropriate and inappropriate attire and adorning.
>The Bible views the outward appearance as a visible and silent testimony of our moral values. Some people dress and adorn their bodies with costly clothes and jewelry to please themselves. They want to be admired for their wealth, power, or social status. Some dress in accordance with certain fashions to be accepted by their peers. The Christian dresses to glorify God.
>Clothes are important for Christians because they serve as a frame to reveal the picture of the One whom they serve. "In no better way," wrote Ellen White, "can you let your light shine to others than in your simplicity of dress and deportment. You may show to all that, in comparison with eternal things, you place a proper estimate upon the things of this life."3
>As Christians we cannot say, "What I look like is no one's business!" because what we look like reflects on our Lord. My house, my personal appearance, the vehicle I own, my use of time and money, all reflect on how Christ has changed my life from the inside out. When Jesus comes into our lives, He does not cover our blemishes with cosmetic powder. Instead, he cleanses us wholly by working from within. This inner renewal is reflected in the outward appearance.
>The most effective witness to the change that Christ has wrought within is a radiant smile on the face of a clean, becomingly dressed person. A too-sophisticated, coiffured, and made-up appearance, with glittering jewels and extravagant clothes, reveals not the radiance of a God-centered personality, but the artificial image of a self-centered man or woman.
>Principle Two
>Adorning our bodies with colorful cosmetics, glittering jewelry, and luxurious clothes reveals inner pride and vanity, which are destructive to ourselves and to others. This truth is brought out implicitly by the apostolic admonitions of Paul and Peter.
>Isaiah reproves wealthy Jewish women for their pride shown by adorning head to foot with glittering jewelry and expensive clothes. They seduced the leaders, who eventually led the whole nation into disobedience and divine punishment (Isaiah 3:16-26).
>Jezebel stands out in the Bible for her determined effort to seduce the Israelites into idolatry. The inner corruption of her heart is revealed by the attempt she made even in her final hour to look her seductive best by painting her eyes and adorning herself for the arrival of the new king, Jehu (2 Kings 9:30). But the king was not fooled, and she died an ignominious death. Because of this, her name has become a symbol of seduction in biblical history (Revelation 2:20).
>Ezekiel dramatizes the apostasy of Israel and Judah through the allegory of two women, Oholah and Oholibah, who, like Jezebel, painted their eyes and decked themselves with ornaments to entice men to adultery (Ezekiel 23). In this allegory again we find cosmetics and ornaments associated with seduction, adultery, apostasy, and divine punishment.
>Jeremiah also uses a similar allegory to represent the politically abandoned Israel, who is vainly trying to attract her former idolatrous allies (Jeremiah 4:30). Here again cosmetics and jewelry are used to seduce men into adulterous acts.
>John the Revelator provides a prophetic portrayal of the great harlot "arrayed in purple and scarlet, and bedecked with gold and jewels and pearls" (Revelation 17:4). This impure woman, who represents the end-time apostate religious-political power, lures the inhabitants of the earth to commit spiritual fornication with her. By contrast, the bride of Christ, who represents the church, is attired modestly in pure and fine linen without outward ornaments (Revelation 19:7, 8).
>Thus, with few metaphorical exceptions (Isaiah 61:10; Jeremiah 2:32; Ezekiel 16:9-14), both the Old and New Testaments relate the use of colorful cosmetics, glittering jewelry, and eye-catching clothes with apostasy and rebellion against God. Such a pattern implicitly reveals God's condemnation of their use. What is taught implicitly in the Old Testament through negative examples is reiterated positively in the New Testament by the apostles Paul and Peter in their condemnation of the use of jewelry and luxurious clothes.
>Both apostles contrast the appropriate adorning of Christian women with the inappropriate ornaments of worldly women. Both apostles give us essentially the same list of inappropriate ornaments (1 Timothy 2:9, 10; 1 Peter 3:3, 4). Both apostles recognize that, for both women and men, the outward ornaments are inconsistent with the appropriate inward ornaments of the heart, the quiet spirit and benevolent deeds.
>Principle Three
>To experience inner spiritual renewal and reconciliation with God, it is necessary to remove all outward objects of idolatry, including jewelry and ornaments. This truth is expressed especially through the experience of Jacob's family at Shechem and of the Israelites at Mount Horeb. In both instances ornaments were removed to effect reconciliation with God.
>At Shechem Jacob summoned his family members to remove their outward idols and ornaments (Genesis 35:2, 3) as a means of preparing themselves for an inward spiritual cleansing at the altar he intended to build at Bethel. The response was commendable: "So they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods that they had, and the rings in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was near Shechem" (Genesis 35:4).
>At Mount Horeb God requested the Israelites to remove their ornaments as proof of their sincere repentance for worshiping the golden calf: "'So now put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what to do with you'" (Exodus 33:5). Again the response of the people was positive: "Therefore the people of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments, from Mount Horeb onward" (Exodus 33:6). The phrase "from Mount Horeb onward" implies that repentant Israelites made a commitment at Mount Horeb to discontinue the use of ornaments in order to show their sincere desire to obey God. Both at Shechem and Mount Horeb the removal of ornamental jewelry helped prepare the people for a renewal of a covenant commitment to God.
>These experiences teach us that wearing ornamental jewelry contributes to rebellion against God by fostering self-glorification, and that removing it facilitates reconciliation with God by encouraging a humble attitude. Therefore, to experience spiritual renewal and reformation, we need to remove from our hearts the idols we cherish—whether they be self-exaltation, professional achievement, material possessions—and replace them with devotion to God.
>Principle Four
>Christians should dress in a modest and becoming way, voiding extremes. This principle is found in Paul's use of the term kosmios (well-ordered) to describe the appropriate adorning of the Christian (1 Timothy 2:9). When referring to clothing, the term means that Christians must dress in a well-ordered, decorous, becoming way. This principle challenges us to be attentive to our personal appearance but to avoid extremes.
>To dress modestly implies that clothing must provide adequate covering for the body so that others are not embarrassed or tempted. This principle is especially relevant today when the fashion industry seeks to sell clothes, jewelry, and cosmetics that exploit the powerful sex drives of the human body, even if it means marketing immodest products that foster pride and sensuality.
>We can violate the Christian dress code of modesty by neglecting personal appearance as well as by giving excessive attention to it. "Dress neatly and becomingly," Ellen White counseled, "but do not make yourself the subject of remarks either by being overdressed or by dressing in a lax, untidy manner. Act as though you knew that the eye of heaven is upon you, and you are living under the approbation of disapprobation of God."4
>Principle Five
>Christians should dress in a decent, dignified way, showing respect for God, themselves, and others. This principle is found in Paul's use of the term aidos (decency, reverence) to describe appropriate Christian adorning (1 Timothy 2:9). Christians show reverence and respect by dressing decently and sensibly, without causing shame or embarrassment to God, others or themselves.
>This principle is especially relevant today when the fashion industry frequently rejects respect and decency as the basis for constructive human relationships. The Bible explicitly condemns the lustful look: "Everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart" (Matthew 5:28). The revealing clothes promoted by some of the leading fashion designers awaken lustful passions in the heart of the beholder and contribute to the depravity of our time. By dressing modestly, Christians play a key role in maintaining public morality.
>God calls us to dress immodestly and decently, not only to prevent sin, but also to preserve intimacy. People who want to sin will sin no matter how modestly dressed are the people they see. The purpose of modesty is not only to prevent lustful desires, but also to preserve something that is very fragile and yet fundamental to the survival of a marital relationship: the ability to maintain a deep, intimate relationship with one's spouse. If marriage is to last a lifetime, as God intended, then husband and wife must work together to preserve, protect, and nurture that intimacy. Modesty and decency will preserve the joy of intimacy long after the ringing of the wedding bells.
>Principle Six
>Christians should dress soberly, restraining any desire to exhibit themselves. This principle is found in Paul's use of the term sophrosune (soberly) to describe appropriate Christian adorning (1 Timothy 2:9). This term denotes a mental attitude of self-control, an attitude that determines all other virtues. The apostle recognized that self-control is indispensable in helping a Christian to dress modestly and decently. Paul pictures the converted Christian woman as one who dresses soberly by restraining her desire to exhibit herself through wearing elaborate hair styles, gold, pearls, or expensive clothes. (1 Timothy 2:9). Her appearance does not say, "Look at me; admire me," but rather, "Look at how Christ has changed me from inside out." A Christian woman or a Christian man who have been freed from the abiding concern to be the object of admiration will not be afraid to wear the same piece of clothing too often, if it is well-made, modest,
> and wears well.
>Paul's admonition to restrain the desire to buy or wear "expensive clothes" (I Timothy 2:9, NEB) also points to the principle of Christian stewardship. Expenditures that go beyond our means are incompatible with the Christian principle of stewardship. Even if we can afford to buy expensive clothes, we cannot afford to waste the means that God has given us at a time when there are many crying needs to help the needy and reach the unreached with the gospel message.
>Principle Seven
>Christians should respect gender distinctions in clothing by wearing clothes that affirm their male or female identities. This principle is taught in the law found in Deuteronomy 22:5, which prohibits wearing the clothes of the opposite sex. One Bible commentary, reflecting a widely held view among scholars, points out that "the immediate design of this prohibition was not to prevent licentiousness, or to oppose idolatrous practices…but to maintain the sanctity of that distinction of the sexes which was established by the creation of man and woman."5
>This concept is especially relevant today when many, in the world of fashion, no longer shout, "Vive la difference!" but rather "Vive la similarite!" In fact, the similarity between certain men's and women's hairstyles and clothing has become so great that one cannot always be sure whether two young people walking down the sidewalk are both boys, both girls, or one of each.
>The Bible considers it important to preserve gender distinctions in dress. These are fundamental to our understanding of who we are and of the role God wants us to fulfill. Clothes define our identity. A man who wants to be treated as a woman will most likely wear feminine items like jewelry, perfume, and ornate clothing. Similarly, a woman who wants to be treated like a man will most likely dress like a man.
>The Bible does not tell us what style of clothing men and women should wear, because it recognizes that style is dictated by climate and culture. The Bible does teach us to respect the gender distinction in clothing as it is known within our own culture. This means that as Christians we need to ask ourselves when buying clothes: Does this article of clothing affirm my gender identity, or does it make me look as though I belong to the opposite sex? Whenever you feel that a certain type of clothing does not belong to your gender, follow your conscience: Don't buy it, even if it's fashionable.
>At a time when some fashion styles seem bent on abolishing gender distinctions in clothing, it is not always easy for Christians to find clothes that affirm their gender identity. But it has never been easy to live by biblical principles. Yet this is our Christian calling—not to conform to the values and styles of our society, but to be a transforming influence in this world through the enabling power of God.
>Conclusion
>Clothes do not make a Christian, but Christians reveal their identity through their clothes and appearance. The Bible does not prescribe a standardized dress for Christian men and women to wear, but it calls us to follow the simplicity and unpretentiousness of Jesus' lifestyle, even in our clothes and appearance.
>To follow Jesus in our dress and adornment means to stand apart from the crowd by not painting up, jewelling up, and dolling up our bodies as many of our contemporaries do. This takes courage and discernment. Courage not to conform to the seductive dictates of fashion, but to be transformed by the sensible directives of the Word of God (Romans 12:2). Discernment to distinguish between the capricious mode that changes and the sensible style that remains. Courage to reveal the loveliness of Christ's character, not by the external decoration of our bodies "with gold or pearls or expensive clothes" (1 Timothy 2:9, NEB) but by the internal beautification of our souls with the graces of the heart, the gentle and quiet spirit which is precious in God's sight (1 Peter 3:3, 4). Courage to dress, not to glorify ourselves, but to glorify God by dressing modestly, decently, and soberly.
>Our outward appearance is a constant silent witness of our Christian identity. May it always tell the world that we live to glorify God and not ourselves.
>Samuele Bacchiocchi (Doctor of Theology, Pontifical University of Rome) teaches Theology and Church History at Andrews University. He is the author of many books, including The Marriage Covenant, Wine in the Bible, The Advent Hope for Human Hopelessness, and From Sabbath to Sunday. The second of these books was reviewed in Dialogue2:3.
