1. The Saturday Standard
The newspaper reported that there are only 32 months to stir up emotions as the world waits to see if soft-spoken and gentle law lecturer Kithure Kindiki will succeed in politics where two professors, one of mathematics and the other of history, have failed.
Before Kindiki crossed to Harambee Annex last week, he was preceded by two professors: George Saitoti and Josephat Karanja.
Saitoti's mathematical system for the Palace was wrong, thus blurring his planning in the Number Two area, which he had occupied for 13 months.
History taught the late Karanja that politics is a different ball game than the subject he had specialized in until the doctorate level.
He lasted only one year before “common civilization thrown out the window” and his place was taken by political thugs who removed him from power.
Before these prizes, there were teachers Jaramogi Oginga Odinga and Daniel Arap Moi who left important lessons for diligent students like economist Mwai Kibaki and botanist William Ruto to win the ultimate prize: the presidency.
The history of Kenya is full of lessons for the vice president and vice presidents on how to unite the country and keep it right.
There is also a lesson on how not to lead the nation, as deputies who have over-armed themselves have been shown the door either by the people or their superiors long before they ascended to the presidency.
In addition to the things he learned at that time that honesty, trust and loyalty to authority which is a guide in the political world, Kindiki also has the advantage of learning from the Deputy President, who was also shown the door after the MPs. he explained that it was to weaken and sabotage his boss.

The publication reported that the mother who obtained a court order to temporarily stop the burial of former assistant minister and Member of Parliament for Bonchari Zebedeo Opore will participate in his funeral program and also attend his burial on Saturday under police protection, the court has ordered.
Roseangela Nkirote and her two children, who she says she had with Opore, got an order from the court of Kisii participate in funeral arrangements.
She had sued alleging that she had been excluded from funeral arrangements, but had children with the former assistant minister for Information and Broadcasting.
The funeral would take place at Opore's home in Kisii County on Friday. However, that didn't happen because of the lawsuit and it was moved forward a day.
The restraining order came Monday. Declaring the matter to be urgent, the court ordered that Opore's remains not be removed from Lee's Funeral Home until Ms Nkirote's case is heard and decided.
As a result, the family of the deceased had to conduct a prayer Mass in the city Nairobi on Wednesday without the body.
Hearing the request on Friday, Senior Chief Magistrate Bernard Omwansa of the Kisii Court ordered Ms Nkirote to attend the funeral of the late Opore on Saturday with her two children.
The judge added that the three should be included in the funeral plan for Opore.

The daily reported that Hashim Dagane Muhumed, the main suspect in Deka Gorone's murder, was her lover, according to detectives and her family.
Hashim is also the main suspect in the brutal murder of a woman, her daughter, and her 12-year-old niece, whose bodies were found dumped in different places in Nairobi and Machakos.
Deka's family revealed that Hashim asked for his parents' consent twice for the marriage, but both proposals were rejected.
“He wanted to marry her, but the family rejected his request,” a family member said.
In their culture, formal marriage arrangements require the man to seek permission from the woman's family in a process known as “doonis.”
Despite not being accepted by the family, Deka continued to see Hashim, spending time with him despite the concerns expressed by friends and family.
It is said that they warned him about him, saying that he was not a suitable partner. However, he remained devoted to her, meeting her privately and, on occasion, escaping from her home in Eastleigh to be with her.
Sadly, this relationship ended and she allegedly took her own life.
Deka was last seen on October 21, the same day three Eastleigh women were found dumped in different places.
Her family assumed she was with Hashim, as he was the person she often spent time with. On October 24, his family reported him missing to the California Police Station.
The family's worries subsided for a while when they received a voice message from Deka claiming that he had left the country but he was not sure where he was.
According to the police and the family, he mentioned that he is safe.
Separately, Hashim approached one of his relatives in the recording, claiming that he had been arrested and needed money.
When asked about Deka's whereabouts, he said that he had “moved.”

According to the Kiswahili newspaper, Americans have started planning to move abroad after it was revealed that Donald Trump will enter the White House for a second term.
Google search data shows that many Americans are looking for information about immigrating to countries like Canada. This search interest increased by 1,270% within 24 hours after polls closed on Tuesday on the US East Coast.
Additionally, searches for information about moving to New Zealand increased by almost 2,000%, while Australia experienced an increase of 820%.
The number of these searches on Google reached a new record for East Coast residents.
According to New Zealand's immigration website, almost 25,000 people from the US visited the site to submit questions about relocation, compared to just 1,500 in the same period last year.
Immigration lawyers have reported a sharp increase in inquiries from desperate citizens. This desire to move abroad mirrors what was observed after Trump's 2016 victory.
This time, the re-election of Trump and the continued dominance of the Republican Party have raised concerns among many voters who feel that American democracy is at risk.
A study by the Edison Research Group suggests that this concern is fueled by fears of growing conflict between Democrats and Republicans over issues of race, gender and reproductive rights.
