Mudavadi’s ANC Party Fires Salvo over the Ouster of Senator Cleophas Malala

Amani National Congress (ANC) has condemned the ouster of Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala as Senate Deputy Minority Leader. In a statement, ANC described the decision as hostile and threatened to take drastic action in retaliation.
The Party pitched on its social media page that: “ANC Party condemns, in the strongest terms possible the removal of Senator Cleo Malala from the position of Senate Deputy Minority Leader. Senate Malala was appointed into that capacity as a NASA representative. We consider this as a hostile action from ODM and will not take it lying down. We will revisit.”
Malala was axed from the privileged House position of senate deputy minority leader and replaced with Kilifi Senator Steward Matzayo.
Ford Kenya Party leader who doubles as Bungoma senator Moses Wetangula has criticized the dethronement of his Kakakamega counterpart, terming the ouster as “selfish, unhelpful, unlawful, vindictive, intolerant, vengeful and against the NASA coalition agreement.”
18 NASA members met on Wednesday to sign the petition that removed the firebrand Kakamega Senator. Malala’s removal is an escalation of the differences between ODM and other NASA affiliates. The meeting was summoned by senate Minority Leader James Orengo. He was allegedly removed due to misconduct and disrespect.
Malala had been appointed in that capacity following the removal of Wetangula as Senate Minority Leader. He deputized Orengo to fill the ethnic gap of Wetangula’s ouster.

How Human Noise Kills Marine Species, as revealed by Scientists

Scientists have warned that the discord of noise made by humans is harming marine species .  A comprehensive assessment revealed that large noise from human activities was as harmful as pollution, overfishing and climate change .  The study that was conducted by the Journal Science exposed how marine animals can hear from far distances than they can see or smell. According to a report published in the Guardian, most of the marine life uses sound to catch prey as well as attracting a mating partner.  Prof Carlos Duarte of King Abdullah University in Saudi Arabia argued that: “Marine animal can only sea up to around 10 meters, smell up to around a hundred meters, but they can hear across the entire ocean basins.” The research concluded that sound “is very important in the marine ecosystems, and noise is pervasive, affecting animals at all levels .” The increasing cacophony in the marine habitat is interfering with how marine animals respond to various survival...

Carbon dioxide to Make Jet Fuel, Study Reveals

Photo Source: twitter.com Aircrafts release a lot of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which contributes to climate change. A research that was conducted by Science News and reported on December, 22 2020 stated that there was a new iron-based catalyst that has been invented to convert carbon dioxide into jet fuel. It is only a matter of time that carbon dioxide pumped to the atmosphere by planes could be sucked and used to power the same. The air travel’s footprint in carbon emissions could be tremendously curtailed, if the carbon dioxide that is released is recycled to generate fuel. As per Science News reports, Air transport contributes to about 12 percent of the entire transportation carbon-related emissions. Unlike cars, aircrafts cannot carry bigger batteries which can be run on electricity generated from wind or solar panels. The current breakthrough in the conversion of carbon dioxide to fuel involves cheap ingredients such as iron and transformed through a single s...

Why Mt Kenya Leaders are wary about Change of Guard

As 2022 succession battle gains momentum in Kenya, leaders drawn from Mt Kenya region have become more concerned of their political future and survival. Mt Kenya region is predominantly occupied by the agikuyu, ameru and aembu communities. The region has produced three out of the four presidents. It boosts about the tyranny of numbers, thus making the region a battle ground for leaders from other region seeking to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta.  Central alone produced Mzee Jomo Kenyatta, Mwai Kibaki and Uhuru Kenyatta as presidents. The only other Kenyan president drawn out of the region was Daniel Arap Moi. In the recent past, the region has gone against the tide of State operatives as a sign of revolt over what they term as negligence from the government, despite electing one of their own to the much coveted seat.  Deputy President William Ruto has taken advantage of the brewing rebellion through making serious political forays in Central and its vicinity. ODM leader Rail...
