supporting- I HAVE NO TRIBE

iHaveNoTribe.com - I Am Kenyan
 

the best tailor i know is a Kenyan (I had to start with you!)
the best food i know is made by a Kenyan
the best driver i know but is also a Kenyan
the best friend i have is a Kenyan
the best lecturer i know is a Kenyan
 
and many other things.
 
The bottom line is these Kenyans are not of my tribe. I don't know what i would do without them.
 We cannot do without each other and that we need no expert to tell us!

  2. My first girlfriend is a Kenyan.
    The man who taught me what a respectable man should look like is a Kenyan.
    The leader of my peer group in primary school was a Kenyan.
    My best friends when I was in high school were all Kenyans

    .....and yet I never shared a tribe with them either.

  6. I am very realistic . I have a tribe its called kalenjin and totally proud to be one. I will not be brainwashed to say i have no tribe.

    I however know that I am kenyan First In my heart and in my balls and kalenjin 3rd or 4th it does not matter...


    Guys, I got to say just the way I see it. Tribalism is deep within us, and I am not sure how this will ever be resolved. We are tribal is our analysis that we become painstakingly blind to even evidence that right before our eyes

    ladies and Gentlemen
    we should not attempt to apply cosmetic to some truths. The lipstick will fade/wash / the make up will get off and you will be staring in to the straight face of what you are..

  8. Hooray! We are definitely headed somewhere. I don't know but for sure i know the only thing my tribe helped me is give me a name & prescribe its supposed behaviours on me. Did you know women in Gikuyu land were not supposed to wear trousers? Ok i will be required to marry the way they want (dowry & stuff). Why can't i just live my life as a person not as a person of such and such a tribe!!!

    @anon, you probably misunderstood my suppport for Kibaki to mean i am a tribalist. NO i love everyone each of them as a kenyan. and i still support HIM still.

  9. And my reason to say that I don't have a tribe is because my parents and grand parents inter-married. I'm a product of both GEMA and KAMATUSA but I was born and brought up and schooled in Kenya. So I have no tribe. I am Kenyan DAMU.
