When I joined class two, I became friends with a certain boy who was from Western. One day, he asked me Na wewe haukaangi Mkikuyu, wewe ni kabira gani? I didnt know how Kikuyus looked like. So, head telled me that I was too cute to be from Ukuyuland. Head remembered of the Mubia man of catholic. Smiling and changing my accent, I telled him Mimi ni muitariano He was not expecting that. He fell under the table in heart, I know. My skin color was betraying Muitariano even with medicine. We still laugh about it even today. Ndi muitariano wa true. Now, that man from another tribe that you hate soo much... Maybe he will be your savior one day. Who gave you your first job? Who trained you on that job that has made you who you are? Who interviewed you and influenced your selection? Who buys your stuff in your shop? who gives you business in your company? Whotook your kid to hospital when you were flat broke and no one of financial help to turn to? Your tribesmen only? if Not, you are a fool and shame on you if you are always first to spit venom on social media and elsewhere. After all, that man/woman you are hating coz he/she is not from your tribe, maybe more your tribesman than you are. Maybe he is your blood brother, distant cousin etc, and you are ready to butcher them. Maybe you are not even from that tribe you proclaim to be. Your mother is a witness. Or is because you can speak that language? Your name is from that your tribe? Fool!. I speak English, have an English name and I am no Englishman. sit on a pin now until you get head. You may be sure of your father, but not who sired your father/mother, your grand and great grandpas. Ara! That is why I will not join #Waititu and Ichungwa in their peace protest rallies coz I know where they will lead. That is why I will not join #Raila in his #sabasaba protests rallies because I know where they will lead. That is why I will not be party to any incitement rallies anywhere, even on facebook and twirra. Let me not be able, because #weareone. You too, dont be able. Tukue ambassadors of peace tuaibishe mubeberu. Tuoneni mbari. I am Dagitari Onjohi Snr. Gyno & Preacher of Peace
