Lake Nakuru

Lake Nakuru National Park (188 km², was created in 1961 around Lake Nakuru, near Nakuru Town

It is best known for its thousands, sometimes millions of flamingos nesting along the shores. The surface of the shallow lake is often hardly recognisable due to the continually shifting mass of pink. The number of flamingos on the lake varies with water and food conditions and the best vantage point is from Baboon Cliff. Also of interest is an area of 188 km  around the lake fenced off as a sanctuary to protect Rothschild giraffes, black rhinos and white rhinos.

The park has recently been enlarged partly to provide the sanctuary for the black rhino. This undertaking has necessitated a fence - to keep out poachers rather than to restrict the movement of wildlife. The park marches for 12.1 km on the south eastern boundary with the Soysambu conservancy which represents a possible future expansion of habitat for the rhinos

 and the only remaining wildlife corridor to Lake Naivasha.

The park has more than 100 black rhinoceros, one of the largest concentrations in the country, plus around  over 70 white rhinos. There are also a number of Rothschild's giraffe, again relocated for safety from western Kenya beginning in 1977. Water buck are very common and both the Kenyan species are found here. Among the predators are lion, cheetah and leopard, the latter being seen much more frequently in recent times. The park also has large sized pythons that inhabit the dense woodlands, and can often be seen crossing the roads or dangling from trees.

As well as flamingos, there are myriad other bird species that inhabit the lake and the area surrounding it, such as African fish eagle, goliath heron, hamerkop, pied kingfisher and verreaux eagle.

So if you happen to be with Kenya, drive to Nakuru town and have fun at Lake Nakuru, you will love it, also if you have time, visit menegai volcano mountain, although its dead, its fun to watch the scenery.

WE NEED PEACEFUL KENYA

On 4th March 2013, our beautiful country will be on all world media houses, cause, General election.


President Mwai Kibaki

 Kenyans will be voting for the fourth President after the current President Hon Mwai Kibaki second team ends.
Kenya have being government by three president since independence, first the founding father, Mzee Jomo Kenyatta,( 1963-1978), in came his vice resident Hon. Daniel Totoitich Moi(1978-2002).This were days when Kenya was a mono party, and KANU(Kenya African National Union),was the only party and its leader was automatically the president.
In 2002, Kenyans had decreed to have a multiparty state and for the first time in Kenya history, we had others parties. Mwai Kibaki who was heading a movement of several parties under the umbrella of NARC won in 2002.
President Mwai Kibaki has ruled Kenya since then, two teams of five years each. Now the two teams have come to an end and the president is leaving the office.

Kofi Annan


I think this will a big test for Kenyans as there is allot of things on shoulders of Kenya.Just to remind you, during the general election of 2007, Kenyans rose against each other after what is called a stolen election, on 27/12/2007, the president was sworn and immediately the country was on fire. By the time the fire was put off by the African eminent lead by former UN Secretly General, Koffi Anaan, about 1300 Kenya were dead.
Mr. Mwai Kibaki and Mr Raira Amollo Odinga formed a coalition government.
The president formed a commission lead by high court Judge Phillip Waki to look in to the cause of the fighting and who were behind it.After about three months of visiting different area within Kenya and hearing scaring information, Mr. Phillip Waki came up with ten names that his commission felt carried the heaviest burden of the killings.
In the coming election(2013), two of this person in the Wako envelop, which was handed over to Koffi Annan will be in the ballot paper wishing to be elected in the next leadership of this great nation.

 This two leaders have teamed up and will face the current Kenya prime minister Raira Odinga who is the de-factor leader of ODM (Orange Democratic movement). Ruto agreed to be the running mate of Uhuru Kenyatta while the current vice president will be the running mate for Raila Odinga.
Its every Kenyan wish that this time around, no blood shall be shade because of politics, its not worthy at all for a single drop of blood to be shade due to electing people who in the end will benefit with their families. We, Kenyans and especially the youth should understand that when you burn, kill or steal your neighbours property, the same will happen to you in another way.
Lets have a peaceful election, i need you my sister and you need me my brother, our parents needs us and in turn we all need a peaceful Kenya.
To our politicians, preach peace during your campaign rallies, this people believe in you, so if you ask them to live in harmony with their neighbour who is from another community, i believe we shall have a better Kenya.
One day i will be gone, and same to you and all our leaders, but Kenya has a nation will be there, so my dear brothers please let us be proud of this Nation, this great Nation that am so proud of, remember those great words from that GSU officer  on 1/01/2008 near mathare where asked a group of young men on a mission to destruction, he asked them "why do you want to destroy what it has taken over 30 years to build", we should be proud of peaceful leaders and lets shun leaders who will preach hate-red.
My fellow Kenya lets have a peaceful election in 2013, election will never end but we have a limited time here in Kenya, so let us enjoy this time with great proud
Long Live Kenya.
