In 2001, Zimbabwe was knee-deep in famine. Mugabe woke up, ordered luxury vehicles worth over $400 million, to be delivered at a cost of $4.4 million.
In the same year, Nigeria started a space agency at a cost of $6.7 million, and an annual budget of well over 250 billion naira. Almost 10% of its population was sleeping hungry.
It's a special breed of stupidity we brew down here.
This morning, on behalf of 12 #Sudanese victims, we filed a criminal complaint in #Kenya against #RSF for war crimes. Survivors endured detention, torture, rape & killings. A first ever under universal jurisdiction in ๐ฐ๐ช. Press release.๐

Unfortunately due to the fecklessness of this regime, we are testing structures under our laws that have not been tested before.
I hope something comes out of it but between our DPP and Judiciary, yikes.
NEMA's selective application of the law.
On the extreme left (where you see cars moving) is where NEMA demolished poor p'ple's homes in Busabala last week.
On the extreme right, at the edge of the lake,rich p'ple backfilled the wetland & construction of Apartments is ongoing...
If Kenyans are badly behaved and it is in their DNA, why do they suddenly behave well when they go to those functional countries that you guys love? What happens to the bad DNA?
Uncle Sam is using the World Cup to settle scores and it's ridiculous to see. The first ball has not even been kicked yet and there's pandemonium all over.
This phase of most past world cups was about admiring uniform designs, arrival pics, and betting on teams. What a mess.
"Caning didn't harm me" people are the same ones who live in fight, flight, freeze modes. You have never known a relaxed state and you're here lecturing us about caning ๐
Si you first start by reacting like a regulated adult during an argument. Then we'll believe you ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
@Netflexxguyy This clearly tells you we've a societal problem. The thuggery we see with politicians, civil servants & people in positions of influence stems from our moral degradation. You're boasting how you conned an organization without blinking!
We need to change or perish coz of greed.

Legally flying a drone in Nairobi is an extreme sport. Here's what I had to do last time:
1. Have an insured and registered drone being used by a licensed pilot.
2. Letter from KFCB if filming for a show / series / documentary plus requisite fees.
3. Letter of no objection from property owners if flying above private property.
4. Letter from Vigilance House.
5. Pay requisite fees to KCAA.
6. Inform nearest police station when you're ready to fly.
7. Have a Kenya Airforce officer accompany you as you fly.
Extreme, right?
But we've learnt with patience and planning, you can fly legally.
Fewer restrictions will be very welcome though.
Most of the airspace above Nairobi is controlled by the military by the way. That's why you don't see KQ or other commercial airlines flying above CBD.
@jnyairo@Zinduko The state is doing the same thing the did with Albert Ojwans death, occupy the family. With Albert, they occupied the home with constant police and gava presence even after his burial. With the girls, they have occupied not only the bodies and memorial but their grief.
No luck so far. Been at kasarani police station since 8am. The police wonโt launch any investigation without a bribe of 15k+. @PoliceKE mko very sick people

I recently captured a shot, part of Kayawhe River in Kariลซwa, Kanyenyainฤซ, Kangema Mลซranga.
Kayahwe Road in Kilimani memorises the River.
Historically, "The Kayahwe River Massacre was a tragic ambush by British colonial forces against the Mau Mau, which occurred in 1953 alongside the Kayahwe River in Kenyaโs Central Province during the liberation struggle. It is remembered as one of the largest single-day setbacks for the freedom fighters."
I don't know the exact point of the masacre.
Initially, I never thought Kayahwe is a Central Kenya name. Sounded Coastal to me.
