@BBCNews Hello @BBCNews,
There is a difference between dying and being killed. A helicopter CRASHED. They happen to die; they were not shot dead or bombed. This is not a game you always play with Iran and Israel with your propaganda. Geez!
An English Channel not knowing English?

[Cyprian, Is Nyakundi @C_NyaKundiH]

Kenya’s Constitution allows every citizen to travel, live, work and visit any part of this country without needing permission from local politicians, goons or self-appointed gatekeepers.

Anyone publicly warning Kenyans that they should not “set foot” in a particular county because of their politics is crossing a very dangerous line, and authorities should investigate such statements for possible hate speech, incitement or threats instead of waiting until violence happens.

3. There were plans to make GSU semi-autonomous under the office of the @IG_NPS. Why is it still under the @PoliceKE?

INDUSTRIES THAT PRINT MONEY QUIETLY WHILE NOBODY IS PAYING ATTENTION:

1. Waste management. Every city produces garbage daily. Guaranteed contracts. Recession proof. Waste Management Inc generates over 20 billion dollars a year.

2. Commercial laundry and linen services. Hotels, hospitals, and airlines need clean linen every day. Subscription contracts. They never stop getting paid.

3. Vending machine networks. No staff. No storefront. Machines in offices and hospitals generate passive income around the clock. Margins are extreme.

4. Self storage facilities. People pay monthly to store what they cannot throw away. During downturns people downsize homes and storage demand rises.

5. ATM ownership. Independent operators place machines in busy locations. Every transaction generates a fee. Most people have never considered owning one.

6. Water vending and filtration. Clean water is becoming scarcer. Companies owning filtration infrastructure are quietly building monopolies where tap water quality is declining.

7. Background screening and verification. Every company hiring pays for checks. Millions of requests monthly at nearly zero marginal cost per additional check.

8. Parking infrastructure. City center land generating daily income with no employees. Asset appreciates while cash flow never stops.

9. Industrial cleaning and hygiene. Factories and hospitals require professional cleaning daily by law. Long term contracts renewed automatically.

10. Uniform rental services. Companies do not buy staff uniforms. They rent and launder them. Cintas generates over 9 billion dollars annually doing exactly this.

11. Pest control. Recurring contracts. Customers rarely cancel permanently because pest problems rarely disappear permanently.

12. Bill payment processing. Every utility payment through a third party collects a small fee. Multiply by hundreds of millions of transactions monthly.

13. Industrial gas supply. Oxygen and nitrogen required by hospitals and manufacturers daily. Air Products and Linde generate tens of billions from gases nobody thinks about.

14. Commercial signage and advertising displays. Billboards and digital screens placed on owned land collect rent from advertisers indefinitely with almost zero ongoing cost.

THIS MIGHT HELP SOMEONE.

WHERE TO BUY THINGS AT A BARGAIN IN NAIROBI
1. Cereals – Get them in Nyamakima in that kichochoro for Molo matatus. Groundnuts from the market cost Sh190 per kilo, but at Nyamakima they are Sh110. You can also get apples and other fruits at a good price.

2. Diapers and bar soap – OTC. The kichochoro between Quickmart and Equity.

3. Chemicals for homemade detergent, bleach, fabric softener, disinfectant – OTC, the building with quickmart, go upstairs, first floor. They will even explain how to mix them.

4. Bulk shopping – If you can manage to go to Kawangware or Eastleigh, you will save a lot. In Kawangware, go to Samwest in the market. Alight at Mlango Soko, then at Cooperative Bank, go down and turn at the first right turn, walk about 20 metres and you will find Samwest. Go with a list, they will give you the prices. If you are buying things for a shop, they deliver. Alternatively, you can turn left and walk a bit for like 100 metres where you will find many wholesale shops including FairPrice. Also look out for Israel. In Eastleigh, as you walk towards the Catholic Church or if you are coming from Pangani, just after you take the right turn to enter Eastleigh, you will see the Marie Stopes sign board, the shops start there. If you are an uptown girl, on the upper side of Biashara Street just before you join Koinange Street there is a Muhindi shop that sells groceries at wholesale prices. It’s opposite Yala Towers. He also has storage and garbage bags at a good price.

5. Beauty products and jewellery – Perida Centre, Dubois Road, and basically Dubois Road.

6. Vegetables – Marikiti and Gikomba. Bunch of spinach @ Sh15, bunch of sukuma wiki @Sh10, terere @15, cabbages @20, 6 tomatoes @10, onions @ 1 bob, 4 maize cobs @20, etc, especially outside Marikiti.

7. Vegetables for those who live in Eastlands – Go to Korongosho market early on Wednesday or Saturday mornings. It is at the Dandora, Kariobangi roundabout. Buy carrots, peas, potatoes and onions from the lorries; it is cheaper than inside the market.

8. Meat – Ndonyo Market Dagoretti for Sh280 a kilo. Burma Sh200 to Sh250 a kilo.

9. Fish and chicken kienyeji – Gikomba. When you get to Gikomba, ask for the place where fish is sold. It’s a whole building opposite where newborn clothes are sold. It’s on the right as you walk towards the market.

10. Fish – Alpha Foods, Road A, Enterprise Road, you’ll get 40 pieces of tilapia @Sh1700. They close by 4pm. The boda boda guys can direct you.

11. Wine/alcohol – Opposite Kensilver matatus on Dubois Road, there is a club with better prices than Mwalimu on Mfangano Street. Also check Accra Road where the 2NK matatus are in the hawkers market building, go to 3rd floor there are many wholesale shops there.

12. Utensils – Kamukunji. Kamukunji is those sides as you head towards Machakos Bus Station.

13. Prescribed medication – Try Transchem next to the bike shop above or the Transchem ooposite Afya Centre. There is also another chemist near the number 4 matatus, where the hardware shops are. Sinai Chemist at the Nairobi Textiles building is cheaper than Transchem. It is at the intersection where the Kenya Mpya buses queue, opposite a building under construction, surrounded by iron sheets (mabati). Accra Road also has a stretch of affordable chemists.

14. Panties and bras – At the junction of Accra Road and River Road, directly opposite Kobil Petrol Station, there is a small corridor where panties and bras are sold. The quality is better than Kamukunji and cheaper than Mombasa Rest House on River Road. You can also buy kids’ vests, bikers, boob tops and tummy trimmers there.
