Very sad, losing an apparently dedicated Mary. Very embarrassing spectacle that CK is seeming to become. That is how the cookie crumbles.... NKT

I'm on

I saw this coming.
Just as well it's happened, she was like a good seed in a bin of
rotten ones.

I wish guys. I have a wedding of a very close friends daughter to attend that particular weekend.

CK might still have the event.

Let us wait and see, I told you there was no need to boycott CK would
implode on its own, who is that saying "soaps" are for ladies. This is
a thriller! Mary, you are welcome to join the revolution, having been
on "that" side I will understand if you would like some space for now,
but what you juzz did is a good move!

A well thought out and written document for chess goes
to waste.like the doomed Titanic it was not a good idea
to board the ship  in the first place.......each of those
who drafted this nice chess content must fight on to the
end.

Finally, someone has seen the light. Ambasi, Larry & Co were always in office only for thier own interests and power trips and ego propping.

If Mary can replicate this same effort in a Chess NGO or a Charitable Chess Trust that would be great.  

My question is very simple - Why was all this good work kept like a Stasi secret.  I saw part of it on the website but it was very mute and silent.......

ChessPAK - I think I have found a very good committee member for you.

To Mary - Thank you for the work you have done while in office.  I know NCC, WeCC and ChessPAK will be writing to you to join them.  I think you should refuse -  I think you should go on your own and create something out of nothing. Very much like what Paras has done.

If you are going to be based in Nairobi then I think you should form a chess club and run it.  You will be in charge of your own destiny.  

Just a suggestion only - Potential venues in city centre - French Cultural Centre, Goethe Institute, Railway Club, United Kenya Club, St Paul Chapel (near UoN).

Well!if Men don't live by what they stand for day by day nothing can be accomplished.And so there we have our deservedly chess organisation.Its very regrettable for our chess.....

She seems to be bringing down these scandal plagued chess office due to her proven work ethic that was not recognised.

May the creator if he exists-help our Kenyan chess.

It's too bad she didn't realise earlier what bad eggs she was surrounded by.

Yeah, it could just be smokescreen. An interesting chess move designed to fool us.

Those mail exchanges between Ambasi and Mary didn't look like acting.
If it is then it did them more damage than good.
Even if they stay united and even reinforce with more family and
friends they are still going down - the clock is ticking.

Or it could be a pawn sac, and while we gobble it up, they ambush us
and checkmate us, or may be they just lost a rook, a typical beginner
blunder-defeat is imminent, I have calculated this its mate in 4
against all defence.

RC,

I don't see why we should invite an ex-bad egg to join the revolution. That would be a mistake. Anybody who served in the current CK administration should never be allowed to become an official again once the current term is over. That's my view.

Mehul, but we were all in kanu once, even Raila, Matiba, Nyong'o,
Kibaki etal. Let he who is without sin be the first to cast stone.

instead of yapping for ages n ages.
do it constitutionally!

if chess player cant do some critical thinking
 on their day to day life problems,
it's mo shameful to be associated with the game

Hi Moses,
We are no longer just yapping, a motion has been set in place that has
no pause or reverse gear.
Roundi hii chura imezuia ng'ombe kunywa maji.

And I was never in Kanu. Never did I support Ambasi like the many
watermelons in here.

Everyone was! The only difference is when one left, some earlier
others sooner, it matters little. But that is water under the bridge.
Kenyan Chess must be run by a selfless office , whose objective must
be to improve the game in Kenya, that is what we all want.

When I mentioned about Nabangi& what I saw him do for Kenyan chess,I was slandered, muzzled,abused-you name it.But its about what action somebody can do for chess.

Like Fred Nabangi sponsored tournaments in KU,the Marble Arch hotel,680 hotel and the now sabotaged Nakuru machinery sponsored tournament which for a fact happened to be an annual event.

To me he seemed like a dignified commander whose intention was to march his troops towards the sound of gunfire like a revolutionary who forged a revolution spirit.At the moment Kenyan chess is embroilled in too much popular ignorancy.
