The Artemis II crew has arrived back on Earth, ending a nearly 10-day journey around the Moon. The trip took them farther into space than humans have ever gone before, and now they're safely home with us.

“The first France conference in Kenya is happening, and together we have been asking ourselves: what does this mean for Kenya? We looked at French culture and asked, what if we convert tea🌱 from a commodity into a lifestyle product? We worked with one of the largest importers and developed specialty teas,” 🗣️@Keequitybank CEO and Managing Director Dr James Mwangi @jmequity reflects on the opportunities that will be solidified during the #AfricaForward summit in May 2026 in Nairobi, Kenya
💡This message resonates strongly with the growing momentum of partnerships between Kenya and France 🇰🇪🤝🇫🇷.

I feel like this Maasai thing is overdone.
In a country of 47 tribes
Mbona Speed asiende Meru akule Jaba
Murima akule carbohydrates only
Rift valley for mursik and running
Coast aamke NOON 🤭 akule Samaki wa kupaka
Ukambani akule maembe
Northern akule pesa ya devolution…
Did you know Jumba la Mtwana means "the large house of the slave" in Swahili?
This hidden coastal gem has: • 4 mosques
• 4 ancient houses
• A tomb
All still standing in striking form.
Set right by the ocean in Kilifi, it’s the perfect mix of history and scenery.
📍 Entry: Just Ksh 100 for Kenyans and 50 bob for kids
📸 Don’t forget your camera — and yes, totally Instagram-worthy.
Let me be your plug for your next Kilifi trip.

Today, I had the privilege of attending the Chepo Laleyo Cultural Festival in Churo, Tiaty, a celebration that has grown beyond its roots in Pokot traditions to embrace the rich diversity of the region. This year’s festival brought together the Pokot, Ilchamus, Tugen, Marakwet.
How do you interact with 8000 potato farmers in 2 days? Our #partnership with @FreshcropLtd enables us to do so through their annual field days at Mau Narok, Nakuru County.
All Saints' Cathedral is historic and we stand on the shoulders of our forefathers who went before us who stood for what is right and opposed what is unjust, and that remains our position.

This morning, I had the privilege of officially inaugurating the first ever annual Kenya Women in Tourism Association conference in Nairobi, Kenya. During my address, I placed a strong emphasis on the enduring significance of short-stay accommodation facilities, colloquially known as Airbnbs, as integral contributors to the flourishing tourism sector. Recognizing the evolving landscape, my ministry is actively seeking public input to refine regulations governing these short stay facilities, with a primary focus on enhancing safety and suitability for visitors. Despite recent challenges, I urged women and youth to consider investing in these facilities, underscoring the importance of exploring innovative alternatives to conventional accommodations. While acknowledging existing hurdles, I reassured the public of our commitment to proactive measures, establishing new regulations that harmonize growth and security in Kenya’s vibrant tourism industry.
"When women thrive, communities flourish, and the entire tourism sector reaps the benefits. As we work towards creating a more inclusive & equitable industry, it is essential to address the challenges that women face in the tourism sector"~Dr Alfred Mutua
