Oburu Odinga is an octogenarian watching his sugar. The cake was ODMโs for the Foundersโ Dinner, Ruto only cut and served it as a founding member. But why bother you with facts when speculation tastes so much sweeter?

You should have said all this back when Homa Bay Senator Otieno Kajwangโ stepped in to fill the seat left by his own brother. But of course, genius only strikes when the issue is happening outside Luoland. Suddenly the principles blossom the moment it is Isiolo on the line.
What brand of democracy is this , hereditary monarchy disguised as community consultation? In what world does a modern constitutional republic allow leadership by ancestry, as if an MPโs seat is family property passed down like livestock? Guyo should stop embarrassing the people

Dr Kanga you failed to protect the two Somali giraffes when poachers killed their mother in Wajir. Our community saved & raised them. Poachers are still killing Somali giraffes across North Eastern. Instead of protecting them in wajir, you took the orphans to a private sanctuary

As the ODM Party marks its vigintennial, nothing captures what the party has become, after years of my own fervent, ardent and selfless support until 2021, better than the words of my friend @MoGAbdi during a space hosted by @gladyswanga two days ago.

Few Kenyans know this: the Somali giraffe โ one of the most iconic animals of our arid north โ has been quietly relocated from counties like Wajir & Garissa to private ranches in central Kenya. The people who lived with them for centuries werenโt even consulted.#ReturnOurGiraffes

Recently, however, wildlife trucks have been moving north-to-south โ relocating giraffes to private or state-controlled sanctuaries far from their ancestral range. Itโs being called โconservation.โ But for locals, it feels like removal and erasure. #ReturnOurGiraffes

Yโall trolls asking 'why Somali giraffe?' buckle up. Itโs the actual subspecies name for the reticulated giraffe. And wait till you find out thereโs also a: Somali cheetah Somali elephant shrew Somali ostrich Somali goat Somali pigeon Somali lark Somali sand boa Somali cat.

I laughed when the bigoted trolls asked whether the Somali giraffes speak Somali. Wait till they find out there is also a cat breed called the Somali cat! #ReturnOurGiraffes

The north has Sabuli, Garissa Giraffe Centre, and Isaqbini Conservancy, we have space and heart for our wildlife. #ReturnOurGiraffes

The Somali giraffe belongs to the open rangelands that nurtured it โ not to commercial enclosures and private photo safaris. Moving it south is both ecological and ethical vandalism. #ReturnOurGiraffes

The hirola survived because Ijaraโs communities refused relocation. Now, Wajirโs people fight the same fight for Somali giraffes. Respect the custodians of the land. #ReturnOurGiraffes

Decades ago, KWS tried to relocate the endangered hirola from Ijara to Central Kenya. The local community and its leaders said NO, protecting their wildlife in its natural home. Today, the same script plays with giraffes. History must not repeat. ๐ฆ #ReturnOurGiraffes

Every time wildlife is moved from the North, a piece of our identity is erased. #ReturnOurGiraffes

The Somali giraffe is our heritage: born of our soil, raised by our people. You canโt uproot identity. #ReturnOurGiraffes

Conservation cannot mean taking from the selfless custodians to decorate private sanctuaries. Wajirโs people protected those giraffes, they belong here. #ReturnOurGiraffes

Wajirโs giraffes are not trophies. They are symbols of our communityโs care and coexistence with nature. #ReturnOurGiraffes

If you move every wild animal from the North, whatโs left of our ecosystem? Whatโs left of our pride? #ReturnOurGiraffes

We are tired of being seen as 'poachers' while private sanctuaries get praised as 'conservationists.' The hypocrisy must end. #ReturnOurGiraffes
