WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL NAME OF "AFRICA" BEFORE THE EUROPEAN CAME TO CONLONIZE IT IN 1822?

 WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL NAME OF "AFRICA" BEFORE THE EUROPEAN CAME TO CONLONIZE IT IN 1822?  As a historian, before I give my readers an account about the original name of Africa, it is imperatively important to go back billions and billions years ago in order to come back with realistic truth. When God created Adam and Eve as the first human beings on Earth (Genesis Chapter one (1) verses twenty-six to thirty-one) (26 - 3 1), God blessed them to grow in numbers and subdue the Earth through hard work in diversity.The different colours, human beings have, come as accident qualities.These colours might have come through geographical developments human beings passed through in the course of times. So, being a white man, black man, red man, or the mixtures of the three (3) original colours comes as accidents or the results of natural phenomenona. The original colour of Adam and Eve wasn't discussed in the Bible as an only honest book in the history of mankind.  As one of the th...

Is the mission Impossible Implementing the Ndung’u Report in kenya?

 


     Land continues to command a pivotal position in Kenya’s social, economic, political and legal relations. Perhaps this explains why, when other resources for political patronage have declined at any time in our political history, the ruling elite have resorted to illegally dishing out public utility land. This phenomenon of illegally and irregularly allocating public land to “politically well-connected persons” gains pace just before and after elections. Over the years, a culture of corruption and impunity flourished and went unpunished amongst those entrusted with power over public utility land. 10 Implementing the Ndung’u Report On 30th June 2003, the NARC government appointed a commission of inquiry to investigate the illegal and irregular allocation of public land in Kenya. The Commission came to be known as the Ndung’u Commission, and its report as the Ndung’u report, after Paul Ndung’u, the Nairobi lawyer who chaired the commission.
In its report, released in part on 16th December 2004, the inquiry established that illegal allocation of public land is
 a) The Commission was required to
 • Inquire into the allocation of public lands or lands dedicated for research for public benefit to private individuals or corporations;
 • Collect all evidence and information available from ministry-based committees or from any other source, relating to allocation of such lands; 
 • Prepare a list of all land unlawfully or irregularly allocated, specifying particulars of the land and of the persons to whom they were allocated, the date of allocation, particulars of all subsequent dealings in the land concerned and their current ownership and development status;
 b) To inquire into and ascertain
 • The identity of any individuals or corporations, to whom such land was allocated by ‘unlawful or irregular’ means; and 
• The identity of any public officials involved in such allocation; 
c) Carry out investigations into any other matters related to land allocations as seen fit by the Commission, to facilitate execution of its duties; 
d) Carry out other related investigations as may be directed by the President or Minister for Lands and Settlement. 
e) The Commission was mandated to recommend: 
• legal and administrative measures for the restoration of such lands to their proper title or purpose keeping in mind the rights of any private person having authentic entitlement over the lands concerned; • legal and administrative measures to be taken in the event that such lands are for any reason unable to be restored to their proper title or purpose; 
• criminal investigation or prosecution and any other measures to be taken against persons involved in the unlawful or irregular allocation of such lands; 
 • legal and administrative measures for the prevention of unlawful or irregular allocation of Land which had been reserved for public purposes such as schools, playgrounds, and hospitals was later allocated without regard for the public interest for which it had been acquired. Such land would be allocated following the submission of Part Development Plans (PDPs) to the Commissioner of Lands who would indiscriminately give authorization for change of use
The Commission emphasised that although throughout the period under investigation letters of allotment were recognised and used as title deeds, this was illegal.

SOCIAL AND EQUALITY TO ALL
My main agenda is adopting a Gramscian theoretical framework, the five parts of this volume focus on the various ways in which the political is discursively and materially realized in its dialogic co-constructions within the media, the economy, culture and identity, affect, and education. We focus at examining the power instantiations of sociolinguistic and semiotic practices in society from a variety of critical perspectives, this blog focus at how applied political linguists globally is responding to, and challenge, current discourses of issues such as militarism, nationalism, Islamophobia, sexism, racism and the free market, and suggests future directions. No peace, no unity, no coexistence hence all becomes vanity...! It's why the world is oval.
