WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

A parliamentary committee has asked Laikipia East DC to give relief food to 300 families evicted from retired President Moi’s farm. The committee on administration and security led by its vice chairman Paul Kiilu visited the squatters at Powys Rob village in Laikipia East district where they settled after they were evicted from Moi’s Kabarak farm.They have however gone to court to challenge the eviction.
Yesterday, the squatters told the committee they have not received any food from the government since they were kicked out last year. Nominated MP Maison Leshom asked with DC Julius Mathenge who was present to provide relief food to the squatters. “Please Mr DC, consider these people and give them food as they wait for the court to make a ruling on their case. They are still Kenyans and should not be punished for being squatters,” she said.
The team had gone to the farm to probe allegations that an 18-month-old baby had burnt to death when police set the squatters houses on fire while evicting them. The request for the probe into the eviction incident was taken to Parliament by Samburu East MP Raphael Letimalo.
Kabarak farm’s manager who gave his name as Tanui denied that the squatters ever lived in the farm. He also said no houses were burnt by police.
Asked what Administration Police officers were doing in the farm, he said they were guarding the farm since some armed pastoralist were passing near it.
The squatters who claim to have lived in the farm for over 20-years were evicted from the farm last year and their houses burnt by police officers.
The eviction started after President Moi sold the farm to Africa Wildlife Foundation (AWF) and was asked to kick out the pastoralists who were occupying the 17,400 ha farm before he could be fully paid.
