Kaka sungura, Khaligraph and Octopizzo meet in person

 Adler Edwina
It looks like the beef between Kenya's renowned rappers  Khaligraph and Octopizzo has come to an end after a meeting between the two rappers and Kaka sungura at the carnivore restaurant last weekend and had their first genuine in the flesh meeting.
Initially, there had been bad blood between the two rappers because Octopizzo had a lot a bad things to say about his fellow rapper Khaligraph. "Who is Khaligraph? Is he a rapper?" With sarcasm, Octopizzo uttered these words during an interview with Pulse after being asked what he thought about Khaligraph's album launch a few months ago. Just after  he launched his album I Run 254 project, Octopizzo as well launched his album at the KICC which was a blast, claiming he wanted to teach Kenyan rappers what launching an album was all about. This came subsequent to Rabbit's album launch.
Octopizzo's launch was a big deal, but Khaligraph's songs have also taken a liking to many Kenyans especially Shiro, You Got Me Sexy, Mario and Biashara remix.
Although Khaligraph had said that he was not ready to forgive Octopizzo for throwing insults at him and mocking him for his English accent, the trio were spotted at carnivore last week with what seemed to be an intense conversation among them. Kaka sungura and Khaligraph were the first two to arrive and number nane joined them later all smiles.
When asked if the beef was over by Pulse, "Well," Khaligraph responded with a chuckle, " This was for Janet Kanini's sake. It was a call for unity."
"The thing is Octopizzo and I met at Sarakasi Dome last Saturday during Smallz Lethal’s album launch and there was a bit of a tension as everyone was expecting us to snub each other. However, Octopizzo came forth and greeted me and I thought, we are now mature and all cool. We had not spoken in a long time,” Khaligraph explained.
“Since then, things are cool. It is not like I am trying to be friends with anybody but the entire move is good for business. A collabo together... that would really depend on the situation,” he added.
Rabbit and Khaligraph have been busy in the studio recording a new video for a song Khaligraph has recorded with Kaka Empire's new catch Phy. 
“Octopizzo has branded himself very well and that is something I like about him. We are from different backgrounds so everyone understands why our ideologies kind of clash,” Khaligraph concluded.

Bishop Margaret Wanjiru was among those who accompanied devolution cs Anne Waiguru to the Ethics and anti-corruption commission where she was to be probed by the EACC officials over the loss of hundreds of millions of shillings on suspicious procurement deals in her ministry.
The devolution cs arrived at the EACC offices at Integrity centre around midday and spent several hours being questioned over the loss of KSH 791 million National Youth Service (NYS) scandal which is in her ministry.
Her supporters started gathering at Integrity centre in the morning to give her support as she goes through the investigation.
Her lawyer, Mr. Ahmednassir Abdullahi arrived thirty minutes before his client Ms Waiguru who has been the talk of the country in the recent weeks due to corruption allegations in her ministry.
Among the politicians who came to support her included Gatundu south MP Moses Kuria, Mathare MP Steve Kariuki and Kabete MP Ferdinand Waititu.
Speaking to journalists soon after the several hours session, Mr. Abdullahi said the cs had nothing to do with the allegations of corruption at the NYS.

On 5 November two dams at the Samarco iron ore mine in southern Brazil ruptured setting off a deadly mudslide.
Authorities have confirmed that eight people died and 19 people are still missing. The mud is also being tested for potential toxins from the mine.

The companies could face even higher fines from environmental regulators for water pollution and damage to local areas.
State prosecutors are also considering whether to pursue criminal charges.
At a press conference on Wednesday chief executive of BHP Andrew Mackenzie apologised for the incident.
The head of the Anglo-Australian company said: "We are 100% committed to do everything we can do to support Samarco and make this right."
The cause of the dam breach has not yet been determined, but one of the structures was being extended as part of an expansion project at the time.
Mining is Brazil's third largest industry.
Brazil's minister of mining said the government would undertake a review of dams at other mines in the country.
