Sorry but this analysis is pseudo-intellectual cynicism masquerading as anti-colonial critique. It relies on a cocktail of cherry-picked details & historical misdirection, founded on misunderstanding of how modern geopolitics actually works. It is mostly anti-West campaign.
Dr. Kenneth Ombongi – Associate Dean, Faculty of Arts, UON: Diplomacy thrives on a balance; if a country is excessively eager to court external partners without knowing what we are looking for, we end up weakening ourselves #CitizenDayBreak
“Africa is not a problem to be solved. Africa is not a burden to be carried. Africa is an opportunity to be harnessed.
Africa is not a debt to be paid by our colonial masters. Africa is an asset to be leveraged for global prosperity.”
Pres. Ruto takes the floor at the G7 summit
Today, I had the honour of taking my oath of office before @UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres as Director-General of the United Nations Office at Vienna and Executive Director of @UNODC.
In taking this oath, I am reminded that international civil service is, above all, a commitment to people. As I solemnly declared my dedication to carry out these functions with integrity, impartiality, and the utmost regard for the purposes and principles of the United Nations, I reflected on the responsibility that comes with this trust.
I step into this role with humility, gratitude and a profound sense of duty, and look forward to working with colleagues and partners across the UN system, and the world to advance peace, security, justice and the rule of law, for a more prosperous and dignified future for all.
@citizentvkenya Hon. Joseph Ololtuaa is a breath of fresh air at the SD for Basic Education.
An educationist who started as an Asst. Teacher & rising steadily to Regional Director for Education, he may have the practical understanding & experience to bring order to Basic Education. Good choice.
The president brings an educationist to steady the ship at the State Department for Basic Education.
Ololtuaa was a high school Principal, rose to District Education Officer, County Director of Education & Regional Director of Education.
@DavidPattt The Pope.
I don't have ideas to sell to Elon & Dangote so they'll not like my company. The 2 GOATs at the front & MJ can just sign some merch. Mr Beast is cool but I'm not a huge fan. I'm not a religious person but the Pope would probably be more candid & practical.
@FrancisChipp Yep! That's how it works. The team that drops less points than all the rest become champions! Thinking this is a favor to the winners is truly embarrassing.
