Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen.

It is my believe that you're all wondering why this project was necessary in the first place. In this modern time when the internet is serving several purposes, one comes to my mind. The internet can provide to us a very useful avenue to write our history, define our values and offer ourselves to the worldwide community and our family's posterity. Please take it as a challenge and make your contribution. This is NOT a one man's show, it's a concerted effort of any Matelong and a Kipkenda for that matter. Please feel free to forward your contributions, piece by piece and eventually the bits will fall into place and as a family we shall look back and be proud to be a Bee!

Why I'd vote for Raila Odinga - By S C Cheison

In 2002, my mother voted for Kibaki (Narc), Kiprono (Kanu) and Kipyego (Narc) for president, MP and councillor, respectively. Well into her sixties, she did it because she believed what Raila said, that Narc was going to crash corruption, eliminate tribalism and return pride and a sense of ownership to Kenyans. It was never to be. As soon the Kibaki presidency took shape, however, the Kikuyu became Kikuyu and the Luo became Luo, etc. Kibaki's Statehouse has succeeded, albeit without making any effort, in driving Kenyans to the pit that Moi before him did not manage, in spite of the latter's concerted and spirited efforts to 'divide and rule'. It pains me, and undoubtedly all other like-minded Kenyans, that what we invested in Kibaki in 2002 was our reflection and loss of balance and judgement. This is because we threw our hope to a gutter from which we must all arise and reclaim. It takes exceptional leadership and will to reverse the trend that we witness in Kenya today.

Story by TOM MATOKE Publication Date: 5/15/2007

The cliff is a killer yet it has a beautiful scenery that could be a tourist attraction. It is located some 15km to the west of Nandi Hills Town in the Nandi escarpment. Visitors marvel at the sheer depth of Shehu Morobi cliff, part of the Nandi escarpment in Chematich Village in Nandi South District. The overhang known as Shehu Morobi cliff is regarded as the deepest in the area and is also greatly feared. In fact, the locals refer to it as “the cliff of death”. In ancient days, people believed to have lived for too long were hurled down the cliff to die. Also thrown into the valley then were women with unwanted pregnancies. Those raped were also candidates for the plunge at the deadly Shehu Morobi cliff.
