In case you didn't watch 🇫🇷France 3-1 🇸🇳 Senegal:
>Mbappe did NOTHING all 1st half then scored twice in the 2nd — one was a screamer from 30 yards.
>Olise is NOTHING all 1st half then came alive & was magical in the 2nd half — Best player on the pitch
>Dembélé did NOTHING all 1st half then did NOTHING all 2nd half then got subbed out and his replacement immediately scored.
>Upamecano is SO good for France at CB. Was far and away their best player in the 1st half.
>The ref wasn't calling any soft fouls, let the play go on all match. Honestly very refreshing.
>Senegal hit the post in the 1st half & should have scored again right before half time
>France went up 1-0 in the 2nd half when Olise played a perfect through ball to Mbappé
>France went up 2-0 in the 82' vs Bradley Barcola who celebrated by airing out MetLife Stadium
>Ibrahim Mbaye got one back for Senegal in the 90+5' but Mbappe put a screamer top bins a minute later for France.
>Kylian Mbappé surpassed Pelé and Leo Messi in career World Cup goals & became France's all time leading scorer today
>France's innability to player through their midfield is the glaring weakness of this team.
-Seeing Tchuameni drop inbetween the 2 CBs with the ball then look up and see a massive whole in the middle of the park with no French players (where Tchuameni should be) is so frustrating
>Let me know what I missed

In Kenya, people living with albinism have the right to respect & equal treatment.
They MUST be included in decisions that affect their lives & in human rights discussions that address discrimination.

In other countries the government deports illegals. In South Africa, hooligans, vigilante and xenophobic groups, beat, kill, extort and humiliate fellow Africans. This barbaric behaviour is evil and unacceptable
Kenya hosts millions of them from South Sudan, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, Rwanda, Burundi and even Nigeria yet we don't go about beating them on the streets.
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.

Childhood is a right, NOT a hustle!

Any sustainable solution in #Gaza must be consistent with international law and ensure that Gaza and the West Bank – including East Jerusalem – remain unified.
Gaza is and must remain an integral part of a Palestinian State.
