This is a kin to gutter press

Nyar Kager, Wuon Abila, Jadolo,

First, I am surprised that the rebuttal by Migosi Oduor Ong'wen on the lies and
distorted journalism by Migosi Leo Odero Omolo have not been posted at
www.jaluo.com.

Instead, another abstract theory from the same Leo is again posted.

It makes me think, is this forum going to rally our people to a common course?
Or, is it meant to peddle lies, half truths and the kind of distortions Leo Odera is good at?

I am seriously concerned, and I must state that I hold no brief for nobody, not
Migosi Raila, nor anybody else. My main concern, as always, has been that can we marshal Luos to a cause? Of course, I will never preach exclusivity. We all
belong together as Kenyans.

But, just as Kikuyus organise themselves, Luhya's likewise, can the Luo also
rally after one of our own? How do we mobilize without raising eyebrows?

When it comes to the kind of slant journalism that Leo peddles, mostly in the
gutter press in Kenya, if this can get into jaluo.com as an authoritative
journalist, then we are losing out.

Because Leo cannot be heard in the mainstream media in Kenya, he is getting a
willing forum to peddle his distortions. If he can ask Migosi Ong'wen to corroborate his lies, then it turns out that Ong'wen was not even in that meeting, how serious is he then as a journalist?

I comment on issues but am not a journalist. But I have a keen eye for the Luo
cause. If I see a worm, I point it out immediately. Thats me.

It will make some of us bolt out, for I have no time for yellow journalism.
