CS Ogamba: The school (Utumishi Girls Academy) did not adhere to the safety requirements as stipulated in the school safety manual and the basic education regulations. In particular, there was congestion in the dormitory, and one exit door was locked contrary to the prescribed safety requirement. https://t.co/lhIRvVVtfa

One day someone will write the history of Kenya and say, here lie the ruins of a nation destroyed by greed.

The last we were told, she was in excruciating pain over the weekend from acid burns, but alive and fighting for her life.

Today, the nation woke up to news that after several desperate attempts by doctors at KNH, Rachel Muthoni Wandeto did not make it.

A tragic ending to a senseless, barbaric and torturous attack. And all this allegedly because she differed with your political views?

President William Ruto, revoke the nomination of Karen Nyamu to the Senate. There are more deserving women who can occupy that office.

[Office of the 4th President of Kenya. @4thPresidentKE]

Former President H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta yesterday held separate engagements at his Gatundu residence, hosting a delegation from the European Institute of Peace (EIP) led by Senior Advisor Hilde F. Johnson.

He also met with Freddy Nkurikiye, a Peace and Security Advisor to Faure Essozimna Gnassingbé, who paid him a courtesy call. Both meetings focused on ongoing peace efforts in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

The way people share news that someone has passed is similar to the most competitive sports' rush to the finish line. The quickest, most inhumane way! Please.. STOP! You may kill someone in the process.

In Murang’a, there is a program called the Murang’a Youth Service. Yesterday there was a recruitment exercise across the whole of Murang’a. This program takes 30 youths per ward, and so far they have taken more than 8,000 youths. The youths are selected through balloting, if you pick “yes,” you get a chance. No educational qualifications are required.

If you are selected, you work in cleaning the towns in Murang’a for two months and you are paid Ksh 400 per day. You receive Ksh 300, while Ksh 100 is sent to your parent.

After finishing the cleaning work, you are taken to a polytechnic to study a course of your choice such as plumbing, hair and beauty, etc., for three months, and the program pays for your NITA exam.

After completing the exams, there is a graduation, and you are given Ksh 15,000 to start a business. If you start your business in Murang’a, you do not pay a business license fee for one year.

Murang'a is making other Kenyans feel like they were born in Mogadishu. Now that is empowerment, silent, focused and impacful, not what we are currently seeing in other areas. Other leaders are milking the country dry while telling their mumu voters that all development is taken to Murima bcoz of entitlement.🤡

One thing I’ve noticed about highly successful people is that they always do what they say they’ll do.

If they tell you, “I’m going to send you a list of the 20 best restaurants in NYC tomorrow,” they do.

When you text them, unless they’re in a meeting, they’re responsive. This is why they always say to give projects to a busy person. They get things done.

They don’t flake. They’re true to their word.

I’ve noticed that this generation laments the loss of house parties and social events, yet people flake five minutes beforehand because they’d rather Netflix and chill or whatever.

We live in a generation of flakes.

I was recently with an esthetician who modeled in the early ’90s. She was older, but still gorgeous. She told me that when her agent said where to meet, she got on a train and showed up because you couldn’t just text and cancel.

People were true to their word. And the people who still live that way today tend to be the most successful. It’s never been easier to stand out.
