Water harvesting is at the centre of any serious water and food security conversation. Kenya’s rainwater potential is more than 350 billion cubic metres. Tapping about 21% of that water will be enough for us. (Photo: Wilberforce Okwiri)

When you terminate an employee due to performance issues, office politics, or force them to resign by creating a toxic environment, remember this:

They will move on.
In a few months, they’ll find better opportunities, rebuild their confidence, and thrive elsewhere.

But they’ll never forget how you treated them.

How you shouted, humiliated, and misunderstood them, simply because your ego got in the way of basic empathy.

They might never speak about it.
But they’ll carry the scars, silently.

Power should never come at the cost of someone’s dignity.

Odious Debt is a legal reality. Under international law, when a creditor lends to a regime that loots the funds against the people’s interest, that debt becomes "odious." It is not the people’s burden to carry.

The @IMFNews claims it has no "political" mandate. But as a @UN agency, it has a Duty of Care. Funding a regime that bypasses Parliamentary oversight and ignores the Law makes the IMF an accomplice to constitutional subversion.

Article 201 of our Constitution, Public finance must be guided by transparency. Loans signed in secret, without public participation, are null and void ab initio.

We demand a Forensic Audit of every shilling borrowed. The law is not a rug to sweep failures under. 🇰🇪 #SovereignDebt #Kenya #DeniBandia

Not taxing people earning KSh 30,000? That’s not a relief. It’s deception. The government first created the problem by loading payslips with endless deductions, then turns around pretending to fix it. In 2022, a worker earning KSh 30,000 took home about KSh 27,500. Today, the same worker takes home KSh 26,194. Even after the so-called “no tax” promise, the take-home would rise only to KSh 26,925, still lower than what the same worker earned in 2022.That is not progress, that is not relief. That is economic manipulation,,, Restore dignity to people's payslips.

I’m a landlord. It’s a tough business. I had a tenant, Mr. Alvarez. Never late on rent for 5 years. Then, the checks stopped. I went to his apartment. He didn’t open the door. I used my key. The apartment was empty. No furniture. Just a mattress on the floor and Mr. Alvarez sitting on it. “I’m sorry,” he said, looking down. “My wife got sick. The medication… I sold everything. I’ll leave today.” I looked at the empty room. I went to my truck. I grabbed my tools. “I’m not kicking you out,” I said. “But I am raising the rent.” He looked terrified. “I’m raising it to $0 for the next six months.” He started to cry. “And,” I added, “I’ve got an extra sofa in storage. And a table. Let’s get this place looking like a home again.” That was three years ago. His wife recovered. He’s back on his feet. He insists on paying me double rent now to "pay back the debt." I put the extra money into a fund for other tenants who struggle. A roof over someone’s head is a business. Keeping a roof over their head when they’re drowning? That’s a duty.

He is 21 years old

He toured 20 african countries

Showed the world that Africa isn't huts or jungle, but culture, people, cities and joy.

Ate local African delicacies instead of mocking them.

Maintained his sexual discipline throughout his tours

Gave global visibility to everyday Africans, not just celebrities.

Whether you like his style or not,
this is a positive role model for our kids. 💯

We have normalised corruption and theft of public funds that we treat theft of Kshs 11 billion as 11 cents. Waziri @HonAdenDuale how can 4% of Kenya's annual budget be stolen just like that? Is stealing Kshs 11 billion like a thief stealing a chicken in Bulla Iftin? Where are the arrests and prosecution of the thieves? Were is the NATIONAL OUTRAGE?

[George T. Diano @georgediano]

Welcome to Kenya where there's no money to run the country but there's money to be stolen.

The UDA government took a loan of $200 million from World Bank for Junior Secondary Education.

After receiving the money, they used it for UDA Party activities and buying political loyalties.

All while our children can’t go to school because the schools have no funding.

Lately, I've noticed everybody looks OK until you eventually have a deep conversation with them. And then, you'll realize that, this is a sad generation of people struggling to survive through smiling faces and pretty pictures.

The Aftermath of a Father Digging a Grave for His 2-Year-Old Daughter:

In 2017, Zhang Liyong, from a rural village in Sichuan, learned that his two-year-old daughter was diagnosed with severe thalassemia. The treatment required a hematopoietic stem cell transplant, with total costs approaching nearly one million yuan RMB. To save their daughter, Zhang Liyong and his wife exhausted all their family savings but still couldn’t afford the subsequent medical expenses.

In despair, the father dug a grave with his own hands for his daughter, saying that if she were to leave this world one day, he hoped she could adapt to death sooner. Zhang Liyong stayed with his daughter, sleeping and playing in that earthen grave.

After the video spread online, it touched the hearts of people across the internet.

Thanks to the power of the internet, Chinese crowdfunding platforms stepped in to help the family, raising the full amount of treatment costs in less than a month. Even more heartening, following the doctor’s advice, the couple had another daughter, and the younger sister successfully saved her older sister using her own cord blood. Later, a compassionate entrepreneur also covered all the recovery expenses for the older sister.

After his eldest daughter was discharged from the hospital, Zhang Liyong filled the grave back with soil and scattered sunflower seeds over it.

Love can traverse the deepest despair, blooming with hope even in the most barren soil!

A wise monk once said:

You'll be alone in the most difficult times of your life... These times will make you wise, mature, and fearless... They will strip away every illusion and show you who truly matters. You'll earn to be your own strength when no one shows up. In silence, you'll meet the strongest version of yourself. Pain will become your greatest teacher, and growth will become vour quiet reward.

One day, you'll look back and realize solitude was a blessing in disguise.

They told us they abandoned NHIF because of fraud. What do they have to say about this? The SHA software heist alone cost the country KSh 100 billion.

[Moe @moneyacademyKE]

An audit reveals Sh11 billion was stolen from SHA between October 2024 and April 2025, mainly through fake admissions and inflated claims by private hospitals.

[BRAVIN YURI @BravinYuri]

We need to start punishing corruption very heavily. When public funds are stolen, it's not just one life that is affected. Many lives are affected in the end and even others lost. When just 1B is stolen, that's enough money to build and equip over 25 schools. Think about that.
