UNITED KINGDOM VOTES TO LEAVE EUROPEAN BOND

UK votes to leave European Union.
Out of a population of 46.8 million, 33.5 million votes were cast and the tallies revealed that about 48.11% voted to stay while the majority 51.89% voted to leave. Despite the British exit campaign, it's 2 member states namely Ireland and Scotland are against it.

Eddie Sayers, Editor in Chief YouGov speculates that Nordic countries such as Norway, Sweden, will opt to leave as a result of the UK exit, while Germany and France will stay, being the founders of EU.

Facts show that this divorce process will be easier since:
UK has a strong economy as a result of being one of the most open economies in the world.
The British pound is not dependent on Euros like other markets.

With this divorce process however, the British pound has dropped from 1.5 to 1.36 against the dollar. This is a drop by 10.37% , marking the lowest drop in 35years.

2 BOTTLES OF CHANG’AA FOR A JEWEL

A man from Nasianda village, Bumula Constituency in Bungoma County is alleged to have married off his daughter, a class seven pupil to a brew dealer. This he did by force, in exchange for local brew ;chang’aa and busaa .This has left the residents from his village in great shock and awe. The man will be therefore drinking two bottles of chang’aa every day of his life until the dowry is fully paid.

        For the uncontained love of the brew, the man went and evicted his daughter from claaass qand took her to the chang’aa manufacturer .This would be in exchange for a daily drink as dowry.The girl whose name has not been disclosed was a standard seven pupil at Nabumali primary school.She is now entitled to being a wife at her tender age at the expense of going to school. Her father on the other hand continues to reduce the dowry payment by drinking the brew everyday.

        This happens after president Uhuru Kenyatta gave a directive that such illicit be destroyed and banned from the society.The incident has raised many concerns from the villagers and leaders. Boniface Otsiula , MP for Bungoma has demanded that the police arrest  and charge the man and ensure the girl goes back to school .He added that such issues deteriorate education standards in the area.

                   ‘Bumula has always lagged behind in education because of early pregnancies and high

                     rate of school drop outs. The man should be taken to court to serve as an example to

                    others who may have the same behavior.’

Displeased, Reginald Wanyonyi, the Women Representative asked the county commissioner Joshua Chepchieng to look into the matter with immediate effect.
