‘Considering the role
chips cafes and chipo mwitu joints played in getting us to this kerfuffle, we
as the coalition against momos will suspend any gland to gland combat for the
next two weeks’, retorted the mean looking resident chairman of Mafisi Sacco, Moi
University chapter. The chairman lamented
that his organization has been receiving numerous complaints from esteemed
members regarding the momo issue. He said as an organization, they unanimously
agreed to suspend any act of the rod to pave way for an independent inquiry on
why mafisilets had gained a lot of weight in such a short time. ‘Momos’ as the
fisilets are being referred to now have vowed to fight the demeaning
status given that its only recently they were dethroned by first years and
that Mafisi Sacco members are only playing victim to hop into the arms fresh
blood around campus. ‘As the fisilets of this
chapter we would like to categorically state that we hold our counterparts –
mafisi in high esteem and they should stop inciting their members to suspend
gland combats ’. The chairperson of the fisilets Sacco , Moi University
chapter further noted ‘we would like to reiterate that as an
organization we shall not relent in fighting for our position as the go to
fisilets and not those mongrels called first years. Let it be known we shall
leave no stone (read balls) unturned’. In a rejoinder, the vice
chair of the fisilets Sacco added ‘I would like to remind members of mafisi
Sacco that we have been tried and withstood the test of time. Let our
counterparts know that we shall not relent in cementing our position as the go
to fisilets around this campus and not these good for nothing freshas.’ She spoke at a press
briefing where the top guns of the organization vowed to marshal their members
to a peaceful demonstration. The quest by many
fisilets across campus to maintain status quo has been met with stiff
competition from first years. Fisilets have argued that being called momos is a
ploy by their counterparts to change hunting grounds. This was after fellow
mafisi gave fisilets a wide berth in favour of the fresh first years who happen
to be in abundant supply just like in the land of milk and honey as foretold in
the good book. Speaking to this writer
a member of Mafisi Sacco Moi University who requested anonymity in fear of his
security noted, ‘wamekua wakiringa sana
last sem, wacha tuone watafanya nini especially na hii baridi ya huku. In fact I advise them to open grocery stores
because definitely wamekuwa mama mboga’. Mbwea Kongowea the chief
whip of the Mafisi Sacco Moi University chapter when reached for
comment said members who would be found or suspected of having relations with
fourth years or third years fisilets for that matter would be suspended from
the organization with immediate effect and ordered to pay a fine. Mr. Mbwea argued ‘how
can a lion which claims to be the king of the jungle go for carcasses instead
of the sweet and tender deer (first years), hiyo
ni kama kusoma gazeti jioni, its unacceptable and I would like to issue a
stern warning to all our members to adhere to the standing orders passed at
the beginning of the semester during the delegates conference.’ The secretary generals
of the two organizations could not be reached for comment by the time of going
to press as it was rumored they were drawing up a new ‘katiba’ at an
undisclosed location.
