I captured these women and a man at a place called Bituyu, on my way to Kimilili, Bungoma County.
They are fetching water from that thin, lowland stream.
These people have an MCA, a governor, and a senator.
Water is a devolved function, therefore, it is the duty of the County Government to provide clean, uninterrupted water for them.
They can't provide water, but during election time, ballot boxes will arrive at the polling stations on time.
These people also have a pompous MP who is campaigning to be Governor and rides in choppers and a fleet of SUVs
While you focus on charlatans and their political chicanery, the pressing issues affecting our people are left backstage as we get entertained by political drama.
Politicians with their political gimmicks are psyops.
WAKE UP!
"Line Spacing 1.5"
"Font size 20"
"Font style Times New Roman"
"Your literature review is too scanty"
"Your citation is poor"
"Print 4 copies, 3 for the department and one for you"
This is where it ends...like I said "the most useless thing in University Education, is Project"
Another day, another slavery:
For 1 week, I was wondering why my domestic cleaner was unreachable on phone.
She came yesterday, and I noticed she has a new smartphone.
After the work, I opted to send her money but she declined.
"Hii simu ya Safaricom iko na shida."
[My Safaricom line has a problem.]
"But, it is new. Haven't you learned how to use it well?" I asked her.
"Imefungwa."
[It is locked.]
It is here that I knew what was going on.
I didn't argue.
I paid for her KSh 249 to unlock the phone.
She pays KSh 83 per day.
It appeared to be A Samsung A07 which averagely costs KSh 12000.
By paying KSh 83 per day for 365 days she will spend KSh 30,295.
Then at the end of the repayment, the phone will be dead, not charging, losing network or just unresponsive to touch functions.
Selling a KSh 12K phone for 30K to an ignorant population is organized theft protected by the government.
These debts are enslaving our people in rural areas and if we don't educate them, they will remain poor with no disposable income for financial freedom.
If your only income is your monthly salary and your debts keep increasing, you are silently preparing yourself for financial pain in your later years. A secure future belongs to those who invest, diversify, and refuse to settle for comfort today.
A Gen Z walked into the interview.
Halfway through, the recruiter said,
“The role requires 5+ years of experience.”
Gen Z nodded.
Then asked,
“Five years doing what, exactly?”
The panel paused.
HR clarified,
“The JD clearly states 5+ years. You only have 2.
Why shouldn’t we pick someone with more experience than you?”
Gen Z didn’t argue.
Didn’t interrupt.
Just asked another question.
“In doing it right…
or in repeating the same mistakes longer?”
Silence.
Because everyone in that room knew this truth:
Someone can have 10 years of experience
and still be average.
Someone can have 2 years,
solve harder problems,
and outperform the team.
Time served doesn’t equal competence
It just means someone stayed.
Gen Z continued, calmly.
“I’ve worked with people who had six months on the job
and understood the work better than people with a decade.”
No disrespect.
No arrogance.
Just reality.
Years of experience became the easiest filter.
Not the smartest one.
When you don’t want to assess skill,
you count time.
But time only measures
how long someone’s been paid—
not how well they can do the work.
So Gen Z reframed it.
“What actually matters is simple:
- Can I solve the problem you’re hiring for?
- Can I show you proof I’ve done it well?”
That’s it.
Because if someone can demonstrate competence in 2 years,
they’re already qualified.
And if someone can’t demonstrate it in 10, more time won’t fix that.
That’s when the room understood.
When people say
“Gen Z is entitled,”
what they really mean is:
Gen Z stopped accepting weak filters
and started asking better questions.
For candidates:
Apply anyway.
If you can do the work, the years are negotiable.
For employers:
Stop using time as a substitute for judgment.
Hire for ability.
Hire for proof.
Not for tenure.

A man was sentenced to 7 years in prison for stealing millions of money🥹💔
Two years into his sentence, he received a letter from his father:
“My dear son, you’ve left me in old age and sickness. The planting season has arrived, and I have no one to help me plow the field and plant maize. I wish you were here to help me. God willing, we shall meet again.”
The son replied:
“Dear father, please don’t dig in the field for now. That’s where I buried all the money I stole. Wait until I’m released.”
As all prisoner letters are read by the prison guards, the next morning, over 100 prison officers showed up at the father’s farm and dug every inch of it — but they found nothing.
The son later wrote back:
“Dear Dad, I hope you enjoyed the help I sent you. You can now go ahead and plant your maize.”
Laziness is the quiet killer of your dreams.
It steals your destiny.
While you sleep and procrastinate, others are building.
Refuse to grow weed in your mind.
Wake up, move, work on your garden, REPEAT.
Repetition is the key to MASTERY.
Refuse to be comfortable.
Governments in the Global South should learn something from the recent Youth Led Protests. From Kenya to Bangladesh to Nepal, young people are rising to demand for change. Listen, reform or get overthrown.
