#1. Patience pays. It has taken Kenya Shujaas 17 years before lifting the cup, sincerely Nkirote we have only dated for two months and you want me to marry you. Kahora tafathare, i still got other 16 years and 10 months to lift that ring and put it in your finger. Kwanza you are used of complaining that I am enjoying myself in Nairobi and i don't come to visit you in the highlands of Meru. Nkirote, did you hear that Kenya took a whole decade plus seven years too be received by the Sonko Rescue Team Limousines and to get a live media coverage on their arrival, plus a call directly from the president? Be patient my dear, one day i will come to Meru
#2. A win is a win, despite the margin or the score. Kenya won its game in the Semis by edging out Argentina with a "free kick" that was taken by the maestro Collins Injera at the end of the game earning the team 3 points. It broke the tie and when it flew into the posts the whistle was blown confirming that Kenya had swung into the finals. Similarly, at the pool level, Kenya was declared the winner despite drawing with Scotland but a win was still a win. Nkirote, you should learn from this that the score i make in between the sheets it is a score no matter how short it lasts. You usually scream at me that i don't last, is it an exam that i have to go for a whole two hours. I repeat a score is a score and a win is a win whether a free kick, penalty or whatever. So whether i last or not, get used to it.
#3. A foreign Coach is not necessary for success. Ayimba is a Kenyan; actually a former player for the team. Mark Friday and Jerome coached Kenya and they dint cling the coveted prize won by Kenya with a local coach. Nkirote, this simply means that it is not a must i take you out of Meru for you to feel loved. East or West home is thebest. I know our neighbor's wife has spoiled you with stories of how she was taken to Mombasa and other places. Be contented when i take you out to the foot of Mt. Kenya and the Njuri Ncheke's shrine taking the local brew, marwa. (AFC take note)
#4. Its not about the huge bodies, its the strategy. Seriously, if the body size matters, Samoa, Fiji, and New Zealand could have won all the games comfortably. Here strategy matters and that is why Nelson Oyoo shown the world that Kenyans do not only run on the tracks but also in the rugby field. Of late i have heard Nkirote complain that i don't have six pack, six inch, six inched wallet, six blah blah. Lemmi quote my learned friend PLO Lumumba, it is not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog. I leave it there
#5. Your loved when you succeed. Nobody has dared to welcome Harambee stars for the last i don't know how many years. Shujaas too have been sidelined but when they won the cup all over sudden everybody knows about rugby including Wetangula, Khalwale, and Balala even though their tweets proved otherwise. In simple terms, Nkirote when i finally come to Meru, I will bring you a Trophy (wedding ring), foreign coach (take you out), huge body by exercise and a toned body with six pack, i am pretty sure you will love me when i succeed. Even if it takes 17 years, just be patient.
