  By Oscar Ochieng People have continued to debate on the effects of this corona virus pandemic ,whether it has done some good to this society or not. Well everybody have their own perception on this but to me it has actually done more harm than good to our society One of the effects of this pandemic that I would like to focus on is the fact that our young sisters are in danger of not being able to continue with their normal lives after the pandemic especially the school going girls. Our young girls are becoming parents! These cases continues to increase day in day out without any action being taken In 2019research had it that one in every five girls aged between 15 to 19 years has had a live birth or is pregnant. It’s a mind-blowing statistic that speaks to the teenage pregnancy crisis in the country that's only for the year 2019. what of now this year 2020 when these young girls are at home with schools closed over the spread of 2019. It is actually a good idea to close ...

By Oscar Ochieng Primary school life is one of the most fresh memories that keeps on roaming across my mind. I joined primary school in the year 2005 after being in a nursery school for only one year. I started schooling at Barchando primary school located within North Sakwa location in Bondo sub county,Siaya county. My first two years at Barchando were very smooth and fine until the year 2007 when I got promoted to class three. At this stage I almost dropped out of school. School was like hell to me. I remember it reached a point that I could even fake some headaches to avoid going to school. There's a day I hid my school shirt and the following morning we looked for it in every corner and it was never found. Well I knew where it was but I could not risk pointing it out because my mum was going to ask some questions which would definitely lead to a war breakout My plans however got ruined after my mum took out a new shirt which she kept in her room I guess as a "spare shir...

By Oscar Ochieng Ochieng Corona virus is a beast that found itself co-existing among the human race , but the question among many about the origin of this beast still remain a big deal as no one has answered this question. Different persons have come up with so many theories to try and explain the origin of his dangerous killer virus. Some think that this virus might have originated from some kind of unknown animal while others are claiming that this is a plague sent by a supreme being as a punishment to human race due to disobedience. But there is this theory which seems to be making sense. The theory claiming that this beast, Corona virus might have been developed in a laboratory located in Wuhan, China This theory has the rumor that this virus after being developed in a lab by some scientists, it somehow managed to leak from the lab into an animal (not specified whether it's a wild animal or domestic animal) and thereafter managed to get into human system , spread amon...

By Oscar Ochieng Ochieng What comes into your mind when you hear someone mention the name UNIVERSITY? Well this is the place I wanted to be most after my highschool education! I tried my best just for me to get to this "small heaven" that every parent it the village mention to their kids immediately you join form one. My dream of joining this small heaven shone after I received an SMS from the KUCCPS congratulating me for being among those selected to join University by September 2018.what made it more interesting was that I was to join a campus located at another dream City, Mombasa! How great was God that He had to answered my prayer and added a bonus on it. Actually I changed my normal Swahili talking and was now trying to imagine my life in Mombasa and I waited impatiently for that date 3rd of September 2018 when I would be officially a "comrade." Days and nights went by and finally it was on 1st of September 2018 my second trip to Mombasa but with a di...

By Oscar Ochieng Ochieng 23rd February 2020 Relationship!!! This term relationship has been misused by many people especially among the youth. You mention the word relationship to a young person then what rings into his/her mind is "love", another misused word. There are many types of relationships but for now I would like to draw your attention to the "major" type which has led to so many people more so the youth getting depressed and ending up giving up on their lives. Sometimes I tend to think that our parents or guardians or maybe our elders are the people misleading us towards this relationship thing. Most of the time when you ask how our parents met then you will hear statements like " we started dating while in campus." This statement sounds very interesting and my fellow youths may want to know how it is to date while in campus and end up getting married and having a complete family but it doesn't work for most of us Or is it our highsc...

https://www.standardmedia.co.ke/article/2001264622/why-oburu-and-his-brother-raila-have-no-christian-names When he was born in October 1943, Oburu Odinga becam e “a new possession” to Jaramogi Oginga Odinga. In his book “Not Yet Uhuru”, Jaramogi writes how he welcomed Oburu to the world but also mistreated his mother in the process: “I gave her a timetable by which she was to suckle, wash and care for the child.” Shortly thereafter, Jaramogi had a spat with Oburu’s mum and knocked her down. She fled, with Oburu in tow and stayed for six months at her father’s home in Alego. For a man through whom Jaramogi waged his first battles -- in marriage and in convictions -- it is strange turn that the last pages of Oburu’s political diary are being underlined with failure, rejection and prop-ups. DRAMATIC BAPTISM It is ironic that he was baptised after a man loved by his people, Chief Ng’ong’a Molo, in a dramatic baptism process in which Jaramogi bared his fangs. The Reverend Simon Ny...
