Mr. Olala;

 

I like your faith in names and their meanings.

Please do your research about how the name "Harambee" came into our voc.

Infact it is a coined LUO word meaning "PULL TOGETHER". Ever had of a place named Harambee in Nyakach, Nyando District? The Luos had their gods and I would be hard pressed to believe that people of Nyakach would rather go for a Hindu "god".

 

I believe this was an honest mistake from you sir. Keep hope alive and rename Harambee Stars. Maybe we shall make it to the World Cup in Brazil come 2014.

Subject: What is in a name

I do believe that there is power in a name;as has been highlighted here before. As a Christian the Good Book tells me that Abraham our father of faith had his name changed from Abram to Abraham and Sarai to Sarah before they received the promised blessings.The same is true to the great apostle Paul from Saul so as to be used by God. Whatever happened to the former KFF to the now KFL is anyone's guess.The same baptism,could go well with our National footbal team and Kenya as a whole when the phrase "Harambee" is deleted from the public and replaced with a more meaningful word. For those of you who know history than myself; will agree with me that aram bee refers to some Hindu god.Kenya is a God (not god) fearing country;who alone is the source of all strength and victory.I know that my take will draw mixed reactions,all the same,I promise to respect all of your views whether you will agree with me or strongly differ.Everyone is entitled to their opinion,and as for me;there's nothing more than a higher calling! "......do your best and let God do the rest!"
