You teach me to have faith Taji. Dad is going through some tough moments.AsI remember your smile and your pose as you were suckling at just four months and twenty three days,you give dad a reason to smile in the midst of so much turmoil.
I love you my Tiger.

Letters To my Son Taji.
Its been for ever since I blogged!! Alot has transpired and all for good I must praise God for that. I gave birth to an extremely handsome man called Taji Nathaniel Ngunjiri Njuki-Imwe on the 5th March 2011. Yeah I know you must have noticed I mentioned him as a man at only five months. When my son was five days old, his Kidneys and liver shut down on him and it devastated us deeply!! within five days in hospital,he pulled through and by the help of God and the Holy Spirit who was ever present,he got better. That is the main reason I mention him as man because his faith moves mountains.
I have been writing letters to him since he was five months exact. Today he is five months and twenty four days old. I have decided to publish this letters to my son because soon he will start blogging and he needs to know that I am always there for him no matter what happens. This Letters are for you Taji. My crown. MY TIGER!! Daddy loves you!

The Budget as I see I.T
During the budget speech that Honorable Uhuru Kenyatta, I was not at a position to take notes as I used to do for the last two years. I knew this year it would have great direct positive effect within the jurisdiction of my interests on ICT for development (ICT4D) issues. As I put pen to paper I am being prompted by my thoughts to write a disclaimer before I would go on with this conversation. Here goes “It is important to note that the information written herewith is my own opinion and is not intended to attack any person or institution directly or indirectly”. Phew! I am safe now.
People perish because of lack of information but more so, because of lack of knowledge. I was excited when the C.E.O of Telkom Orange the other day presented laptops to the paliamenterians.This was a wave to entail that its high time our leaders would show by example and became computer literate and use the Internet to source for information at a click of a button. At this age and time, we are having all sorts of social networks that include Facebook, Google groups and twitter just to mention a few. It’s encouraging to see the government setting up opportunities like the 1 million laptop computers campaign countrywide to tap emerging ICT opportunites.This will raise up a generation of individuals who shall use this social networks to make money through this very interactive and informative sites.
I cannot stop to think how the ICT4D practitioners may place ourselves strategically to benefit from what our P.S Dr.Ndemo has worked hard to see equipments like the taxable goods and services to film producers, Items used in film production such as photographic film roll, video recording or reproducing apparatus get Zero rated. To my own understanding, if a Digital Village can get someone to bring in such equipment from the States, Britain or Afghanistan wherever outside the country, they can get it at cost price!! No Tax! No nothing! This shall bring sustainability to the programs we run. We shall now diversify into better broadcasting on institutions with community radio; we shall be able to meet the market demand if we are using mobile phones. Though it’s important to note that money isn’t on the mobile phone but on the airtime spent. So it’s like the government wants everyone to own a mobile phone so that all will call.
Its high time for the ICT4D practitioners approached the ICT Board with one voice to know on how best we can acquire money either as a group or individuals to carry out the community development sustainable projects that will be used to add value to inhabitants of certain clusters by using computers as a tool to foster development. Will the Fiber optic cable be of any use to those who are in ICT4D practice? Hmmmm……….I am not sure about that. At this point, my comments are with held till further notice. Allow me to mention that the physically challenged persons have not been forgotten. For once I wish I was disabled for me to benefit from the tax free income of up to 150,000 Kenya shillings per month!!Gosh! Isn’t that breath taking or what!! Take home of 150K TAX free!! YAY!!It doesn’t end there! 200 Million Interest free revolving fund established and it awaits implementation. I see about 30 Kimathi Information Centre’s planted across the country with this money (that’s what good use of government money is all about).
For a short while, it rung in my mind on how the Kenya Red Cross has gained favor with the government. Everything supplied to the organization will be Zero rated. This includes services rendered from Auditing, etc etc.My thoughts on this, We ICT4D practitioners should continually lobby for such provisions and in the next budget we should hear something like this “goods and services supplied to the ICT4D practitioners should be Zero rated”. Gosh!! I am just visualizing our 28 story skyscraper community centre changing lives in this continent. This year’s budget in my own opinion has truly favored us not forgetting the increase of the CDF kitty.

Me and My Muffin
I hear the grass is always greener on the other side the only barrier
its the two feet picket fence.
As am biting this muffin that I have just bought at Nakumatt
supermarket,my mind gets lost and flashbacks of the great days I spent
with my baby boo.I see her bite that muffin at Java juices at
Tuskies in buruburu.I cant resist taking a glimpse or two at her
glamorous lips.She sighs after swallowing the muffin.Looks at
me,places her glittering lips on the straw as she sips the strawberry
shake.Her eyes are so sexy that they take me away!
She was a jewel that I would trade places to have her.Her demise
from my life puts me at a vulnerable position not to mingle.Its now a
year.My thoughts try not to think about her.I surely try and the more
I try not to think about her is the more I think about her.
Damn!Am back to myself.My muffin is finished.You know what?I have
cleared all six muffins just seeing her in my thoughts eating that one
muffin.Will I ever get a hot lady like her who has super boobs?Super intelligence like hers?I tell you her lips on mine feels
like heaven.Her company is worth a six Jazz band playing.I love you
baby boo.
