A Comprehensive Breakdown of NEP's Census Results

The disgraced Planning Minister Wycliffe Oparanya, released Kenya's census results after 12 months of severe doctoring and manipulation of data. If we are to take his widely discredited and fraudulent figures at face value, here is a breakdown of the census data with regards to NEP province:

POPULATION OF NEP: 2,310,757

 Mandera is the most populous district in the Province with a 1,025,756 people. {Male 559,943  Female 465,813}. Its also ranked as the tenth most populous county in the entire nation.

Mandera Central happens to be the fourth most populated constituencies in the country with 417,294 residents. Congrats!

Feel free to point out any errors and inconsistencies. I have every intention of compiling them, then buy an ad page in the Standard and the Daily Nation.

What the cancelled census results mean for NEP.

By now everybody knows that this fascist petulant coalition government has decided to throw out census results from five constituencies in NEP. The ramification of this ill advised decision by the incompetent minister are far reaching and could severely curtail the influence of Somalis in all level of governance in the coming decades. It would also rob us of well deserved resources for another generation, maybe  more.

Census results are going to be used by the newly formed Interim Independent Boundaries Review Commission to draw up Kenya's electoral map . By cancelling these results especially in the most populous parts of our province on intellectually dishonest grounds, this disgraced minister wants to deprive the people of NEP representation in the National Assembly come 2012.

Calculations derived from provisions included in the new constitution state that in sparsely populated regions, a constituency should have a population of between 93,197 and 170,079 people. Now if we use these figures to determine the number of new constituencies NEP should get, you'll be see why 'elites' are worried about our growing influence.

Lets breakdown & crunch the numbers for the five constituencies that were cancelled using the mean aggregate of the figures stipulated in the new constitution.

Mandera Central= 4 constituencies

Mandera West    = 3 constituencies

Mandera East     =  3 constituencies

Wajir        East     =  2  " "

Lagdera               =   2 "  "

Dujis                     =   3 "  "

Figures for Fafi, Wajir South, Wajir North, Wajir West and  Ijara have not been officially released yet but we all know atleast one of these constituencies has a population of over 200K hence  2/3 more constituencies to our impressive tally.   

After u add up the numbers, we will end up having between 22-25 constituencies in our province.  Thats what they want to take away from us. 

We have to stand up to this bullying and demand whats rightfully ours.

HAKI YETU! HAKI YETU! HAKI YETU!
