Causes and Prevention of Kidney Failures in Children, and what parents needs to do.....
This publication looks at the
causes and the prevention measures of kidney failures in children and what
parents should learn from it so as to protect their children from the disease.
Research has shown that there are various possible causes of kidney failures in
children, among them being: Birth defects whereby they happen when the baby is
developing in the womb.
The birth defects include renal agenesis, renal
dysplasia and ectopic kidney. The abnormalities can manifest themselves in
various forms e.g. abnormalities in size, structure or even lead to varying
position of the kidneys.
The kidney failure could also be
as a result of hereditary disease where the kidney diseases are passed from the
parent to the child. The most common kind is polycystic kidney disease (PKD
that is characterized by many cysts which later take over and later destroy the
working kidney tissue.
Infection is also another potential
cause of kidney failures. An example is Hemolytic uremic syndrome
which is mainly caused by a harmful bacteria found in infected meals e.g. meat
and dairy products. Systemic disease is also another cause of infections, here,
diseases e.g. diabetes may involve organs in the whole body of which the kidney
may be part.
Having considered all the above
potential causes of the kidney failures, it is important to put in place
appropriate prevention measures which include the following:
1. Parents should always
ensure that they serve their children with a balanced diet.
2. The parents should
also visit their nutritionist before they embark on making any diet change.
3. The
diet they serve their children should contain elements of nutrients such as:
protein, sodium, phosphorous and also plenty of fluids.

Starehe Boys Center Head teacher Suspended for failure to deliver results
The question is, has the school board of management made the right decision? what has been going on in the school that we are not being told?
Mysterious disappearance of Malaysian Airline search enters day five: Phone calls going through what is happening???
Family members are worried on what could have happen to them since no one knows where the plane is after it disappearance and losing track and communication with the ground control tower. Its something never seen or heard across the world for a plane to disappear in the space without trace by the satellites.
The family members of the people on board are highly frustrated due to lack of information from their relatives. China has dedicated a number of their satellites to be used in tracing the plane but with no success now.
One wonders why does the phone calls and messages go through but no response from their end. Four days later, their cellphones are still on? This is a strange thing really to have ever been experienced.
Experts say that hearing a ringtone does not mean the phone is on, the phone could be damaged yes, but since they are wireless, and the type of the phones are phantom, and that its possible that they were on airplane mode, means they could go through despite being technically disconnected or damaged.

Your child having nightmares? Be warned!!! Must read it......
Researchers from the United Kingdom have linked childhood
nightmares to psychotic disorders later on in life. The children under the
study were aged between one to twelve years. The researchers followed the
children until they were 12 years old where they were then diagnosed for
various psychotic disorders.
It was discovered that children who thrash their
feet and scream while having night terrors are at a higher risk of developing
psychotic disorders. Then the parents were asked about the frequency of
nightmares, they claimed that the children had subsequent nightmares for many
years. This amounted to 37% of children having nightmares who later on
developed psychotic disorders.
The warning light begins when the child has subsequent
night terrors that are persistent. One of the researchers and a Professor reported
that night terrors can provide an early warning to serious psychotic problems
like hallucinations; anxiety, delusions and thinking their thoughts are being
controlled.
The researchers recommend early diagnostic procedures for
children who show symptoms of serious nightmares. Parents can also wake the
child briefly when they are having a
nightmare and calm them down before letting them go back to sleep.

Today, all the governors, their deputies elected in Kenya to head county governments are having a meeting with all the MCAs and speakers as one family. They have launched a devolution month based on their election to their offices. They are the result of devolution, and in the forefront in attaining highest deliverable standards at their levels.
The chairman of Governors Council Isaac Rutto, has

members. This has been reflected in their speeches.
Isaak Rutto noted that all MCAs must be given car
grants and even mileage allowances just like the members of parliament. He

Deputy Governors, MCAs and the Speakers. These are merely facilitators.

government for car grants and seed money for mortgages as Members of the
National Assembly are being facilitated.

other devolved funds, the County Governments must also initiate the Ward
Development Funds.

Roads money, REA money, HIV Aids funds etc , must all be put into one pot.

county for the sake of development of our counties.

accountable as per the provisions of the Constitution.

County Assemblies.

governments will intensify development projects.

to increase county allocations from the current levels to 45% to take place
within a year.

founding fathers and mothers of devolution represented here today will remain
focused on devolution and remain united.

audited accounts of the current financial year.

Lupita Nyongo has done it Again, Congratulations for winning the best supporting actress Oscars Award
She is such a talented actress in who featured in 12 years a slave. She has been sweeping all the American awards in various categories. She won the Hollywood film award among others.
Lupita was born in Mexico 31 years ago when her family was in exile over political wrangles in Kenya. Lupita Nyongo is the daughter of former health Minister, who is currently a Kisumu County Senator, Prof Anyang Nyongo.
Since she was born in Mexico, that makes her an Mexican by birth, but came to Kenya while she was less than a year old. Her parents are Kenya, she was raised in Kenya, since she lived in Kenya, before going back to America for her studies. So Kenyans own Lupita.
President Uhuru Kenyatta commends Lupita Nyongo...Our African Kenyan Queen!!!
Lupita through her career has made a great effort to put Africans in their rightful position in a world that was white dominated and any actions and ideas of Africans had no place. The President has congratulated Lupita as a gifted Kenyan who has contributed to black awareness through her talent. He also urges all other Kenyans to exploit their talents as the government pledge to promote arts and talent.
Tonight Kenyans and Africa as a whole keep watch and are all behind Lupita Nyongo. We will keep you updated as the events transpire.

Why Teacher Wanjiku's show did not air on Citizen TV
 |
| Teacher Wanjiku |
It seemed that her exit from Churchill show was a good move after all. However, as we reported in our earlier article, her show received mixed reaction from Kenyans on social media. Kenyans out-lashed at her show saying it flopped greatly.
Citizen TV took the reactions seriously, and the show did not air last Friday.
The show has to earn its time slot on the channel after producers make major changes that may see it back on air. However, the management says that there are many things that need to be worked on before it can go back on air. Lets wait and see if she will return to the screen any time soon.

The Kenyan First Daughter, Miss Ngina Kenyatta Attends Parties Keeping a Low Profile
Here in Kenya, we have seen on a number of occasions the First Daughter, Miss Ngina Kenyatta attending parties in a low profile. She loves parties, she loves socialization, and that seems to have been noted by the first family. She has been given the same opportunity without any hindrance by virtue of being from the first family.
In the past, she has attended TPF unctions where she interacted with people freely. The most recent one is the Safaricom International Jazz where she was dropped by a range rover with her friends to attend the function. She kept her profile low throughout the event without raising eyebrows as to who she was. She, however bought drinks to people who were in the the VIP lounge.
People were left gazing when she was leaving while waving at them goodbye after the event. The same range rover that dropped her came and picked her and her friends. Her Humility is beyond reproach of high profile people like her.

Ukraine Crisis Felt in Kenya by Freelancers: Its now deepening with the current Russian Approval of Military force
With the approval of the use of military force in Ukraine by Russian House deepens the crisis hence more effects are expected.
Most of these companies are those agents who take or receive requests for temporal/permanent employees to tackle various assignments, tasks and projects among others. These agent companies have a hub of employees in Kenya.
In the recent few years, Kenya has experienced increase direct foreign remittance which among them includes such payouts. This business has been growing given that most Kenyans, who are students, or otherwise self employed, while others work and still manage to handle this job as well, also want to sustain the high standards of living besides improving their even growing needs.
Here are the messages from one of the agent companies.
"Dear Valued employees,
Unfortunately, due to the current situation in the
country, there will be some delay with salary pay out. The delay is caused by
the PrivatBank policy. We are sorry for the incovenience and want to assure you
that we are doing everything possible to speed up the process. Your salaries
will be paid out as soon as possible. We will keep you updated on the progress.
Good news!
The payout has already started!
Since the exchange rate keeps changing, we have to
fix it at today's Privatbank rate USD1=UAH 9.5"
as posted to all its employees in their website...
Deputy President William Ruto a true African Hero….He receives a standing ovation after his speech in Nigeria.
He acknowledged the fact that Nigeria is facing different
challenges which include threats from terrorists but he urged them to continue
standing together and work together with their neighbors so as to defeat such
coward acts.
“What you have done – everything you have achieved, was
possible only because of your Union, and your Unity. A divided Nigeria would
not be a continental leader. A squabbling Nigeria could not possibly be a
leader. A Nigeria torn asunder cannot stand tall and walk proud. Neither can it
command respect in the community of Nations”, says Ruto.
He pledged that all African leaders should work together to
change the view of Africa. After his speech he received a standing ovation from
the entire audience. Kenyans lets
support our leaders as they endeavor to change Kenya and Africa as a whole.
