Today I had the pressure to spade my day with an esteemed Greek client. Mr Gathecadopoulos called me at the start of the week to tell me how one Njogufianakis, the IT guy wants to shaft the church based self-help group up the rear through fraudulent activities. That the guy (Njogufianakis) had copied crucial group records, deleted them from the primary computer and added a password to it before ingiraring mitarakwa-ini (That’s how Mr Gathecadopoulos actually speaks without the intention to be funny. A concoction of Swahili, English and Greek yet he is a very educated tycoon so you just know)
So I had to take the next raft (Lopha Travellers) across the Mediterranean on my journey to Ruiru aka Thessaloniki. Funny thing is makanga wa meli kept calling the place Loilo hadi nikashuku kama am on the right raft. So nliuliza mlady flani hapo kando kama gari ni ya Ruiru. Akacheka sana.
The Journey to Thesaloniki reminded me of my days at Juja Boys, and Roysambu thereafter. I was robbed at gun point in Roysa, hekaya iko kwa archives hapa. Then I remembered ule jamaa wa rugby ameminywa ndengu juzi pale Sandton. I had to close my eyes for a while. Kufungua macho hivi, nacheki Githu, the Real-Life Garrison with military grade thugs. It still holds the title as The eyesore of the super highway. Tuyaache hayo.
Fast foward, tumeingia Loilo (What happens to the R and the U, dear greeks). Miaka yote nlikua Juja Boys na nikaishi Thika Rd, sijawai Ingia Ruiru Town. I used to think it’s just another dusty small town but alas, I was surprised. By Kenyan Standards, its quite a sizeable town. Better part was, there is no smell of politics in the Air, apart from a few Kabogo postas I saw here and there. (By the way nliona Isaack Mwaura tao na marinda marinda hivi, agbada agbada like this…how is Ruiru taking him ?).

Mimi sio snitch. Nlienda tu hustle. Nkawasort Data zao, nikawa-rutira wira wega, thogora nikawasort ile njega…maundu ma wojoria, eeh (disclaimer to non-greeks : polish your vocabulary with business friendly greek terms to do business more easily in greece).
Lakini I don’t know why I have this feeling but hio fraudster inashift from githeghetti to just githeri soonest.

LUNCH
After kazi, I enjoyed great Greek gourmet that included a mix of Githeri ya Minji, Nyama, Cabbage, Saga, Dhannia Waru,and carrot. At the request of my host, Mr Gathecadopoulos. Tamu sana:D:D. Balanced diet muhimu sana, so the greeks have it all in one sitting. My body is still confused hadi sai trying to figure out which nutrients come from what.
