Luanda Reggae Defenders is a now a popular movement with roots in Vihiga and border Siaya and Kakamega counties Attention is brought to the manner and conduct the movement has gained fame and followers, mainly the Youths. The movement capitalizes on funerals. With a poor culture of putting the dead to rest, the Reggae Defenders have taken it by storm and rebranded the infamous ‘Disco Matanga’ – disco at funeral.

They have this huge old school sound system that is over buzzing to no clear reggae song - that they hire a pickup to carry - and it has a young DJ mainly standing there than mixing anything. Often, against the rules, the casket is grabbed from a hearse vehicle and tied to a motorbike. There it will be swayed and jerk breaked between other motorbikes on the narrow roads.

Why you lost in nominations

You young people need listen to your seniors, he continues. How do we elect you when you got no house and no wife? What will you tell us? What will you tell us? What do you know? Tell me, (tapping my thigh) Tell me what a bachelor can tell people!

When you win and get prayed for, where shall the prayers be offered? In your mother's house? This is how it need be; By your main door, you and your wife could stand or kneel if you are humble enough for prayers. A demo of how your wife shall treat visitors now that her status is leveraged is thereafter  conducted. It is not about appealings but being confident in the person selected.

Haha, he remembers. But Kiguhi  lost yet he has a wife. A foolish wife. He had also married a year ago and that isn't marriage yet. Speaking among women she said, 'Voting in my husband shall increase my beauty to make your leader happy at home', he stops not  but laughs in break. 'I'll be able to at least plait my hair,' I find listening interesting. Women must have heard what they dislike most- being outshined. And because local politics is better than nationally marginalizing politics they attend to both see conviction and hope.

If your argument stands, I interrupt, why do the very leaders with wives and houses go about building a new and practising debauchery, things that the refused bachelor would equally be accused of? Listen I tell you so that you may appreciate, he comes firmly again. It is not in our observing to see what happens thereafter but have the present hallowed.  Fulfill the unwritten law! He thunders.

Don't you know that Atsiaya wasn't able to be nominated because he is the son of a daughter? This is not his fatherland. But he was elected and he's served well for the past five years! He was elected with anxious young people who do not see tomorrow from today. We do not approve good by observing the convenience of a time. Money can boost you once but not twice. We give it a focus when the right time comes. Or rather when we want to get unreasonable, he wisened.

How being of a right clan, right gender, right political position and vying at the right time all leads to somebody's win could also be focusing factors in the losing of the same.
