Fora da Copa do Mundo após ser barrado por imigração dos Estados Unidos, árbitro somali Omar Abdulkadir Artan se pronuncia:

“Apesar das circunstâncias, estou de bom humor e focado nos próximos desafios da carreira. Eu quero agradecer à família do futebol pelas mensagens e desejar aos meus colegas o melhor durante a Copa do Mundo. Estou ansioso para encontrá-los no futuro. Quero agradecer à FIFA e à CAF (Confedederação Africana de Futebol) por todo o suporte e prometo continuar evoluindo meu nível e concentrar no futuro.”

Ruto is forcing projects to hide illegal logging. Tree nursery in karura. Parking lot in Nairobi national park. State house lodge in Imenti forest. Hakuna kitu inajengwa. Can he tell us where he is taking the timber
What's the end goal in clearing our forests?

Gunshots, teargas and running battles in Nanyuki Town, Laikipia County as Kenyans unite against Ebola quarantine facilities across the country.

If Maraga hadn't been there, this probably wouldn't have been reported as widely as it's being reported now. This is how to use presence to draw attention to the things of importance.

Former President William Ruto's former ICC lawyer and later ICC Prosecutor, Karim Khan, has now been suspended over sexual misconduct allegations.

The irony is hard to ignore.

One of the men who defended Ruto at the ICC over crimes against humanity is now fighting serious allegations of his own.

And it's worth remembering that Ruto's ICC case was not concluded with a finding of innocence. Ruto was never found Innocent by the ICC.

OMAR ARTAN, an African referee from Somalia picked by FIFA to officiate at the #FIFAWorldCup denied entry to the United States of America.

The same US that wants to host an Ebola quarantine facility in Africa is the same US denying Africans the right to officiate the World Cup.

Samantha Siyieyio Kipury is a Kenyan advertising executive who quit a lucrative job at 25 to start her own agency. She began with just one client, Nokia, and handled everything herself - from pitching to taxes; for the first 6 months. She also enrolled for an MBA to learn business management while building the company.

Her childhood shaped her drive. Her mother left for Canada on a scholarship when Samantha was 4, so she was raised by her father. She credits that period for giving her what she calls “masculine energy” and a no-excuses work ethic.

The business grew fast. She merged her firm with two others to form Dentsu Kenya, where she and partners Joel Rao and Chris Madison now share equal ownership. The parent company is based in South Africa. Under her leadership, Dentsu Kenya has handled major campaigns like Barclays to Absa rebrand, Safaricom’s ‘Bonga For Good’, Guinness ‘Made of Black’, the NIC-CBA to NCBA merger, ‘Malaria No More’, and Netflix’s viral ‘Free The Whole Storo’ ad.

Today, 39-year-old Samantha is Dentsu Kenya Group Head of Media and manages about 28 local and international corporate clients. She was named in Business Daily’s ‘Top 40 Under 40’ list in 2018. She’s now entering a new chapter - starting a family while still leading big moves in Kenya’s advertising industry. Mungu nibariki sasa …

Treasury has requested Sh400 million to renovate a building it hasn't fully acquired yet.

MPs have rejected the request and challenged the Treasury, asking why the government would spend hundreds of millions renovating a property it does not yet own.

The building in question is Jubilee Insurance House, a 5-storey block on Wabera Street in Nairobi CBD. The government is in the process of acquiring it for about Sh2.5 billion, but the deal is not yet concluded, and the building is still undergoing valuation.

Yet, Treasury wants Sh400 million released immediately for structural renovations.

This is the same government that is constantly telling Kenyans there is no money.

No money for this. No money for that. No money for essential services.

But somehow, there is money to renovate a building that does not even belong to the government yet.

At this point, it is becoming harder to argue that Kenya has a revenue problem. What many Kenyans are seeing is a priorities problem. They fly on private jets while the people continue to suffer.

And every time stories like this emerge, one begins to understand why public trust in government spending continues to decline.

Countries with retrogressive visa policies should not be allowed to host global tournaments.

The Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan was reportedly denied entry into the US despite having a valid visa, meaning he will miss his World Cup debut as the first Somali official at the tournament. That alone tells you how broken this hosting model is.

You cannot invite the world to your country, collect tournament glory, collect tourism money, collect broadcast attention, then humiliate qualified officials and participants at the border.

Even the extortionist visa system at the US Embassy in Nairobi should be condemned. Kenyans pay money, fill forms, queue, wait for months, then someone rejects them in two minutes and keeps the money.

If your visa policy treats Africans like suspects and ATMs, you have no business hosting the world.

Kenya was accepting Ebola affected victims from USA while the said USA is denying VISA to African teams & referees?

Ruto claimed that by next year, we would have more than 28 stadiums. But in reality, we only have two proper stadiums: Kasarani and Talanta. The rest are cowsheds.

🚨 Breaking: As Kenyans continue reacting to the Rigathi Gachagua ruling, President Ruto has departed

Belgium for Norway aboard chartered private jet T7-BBJ2. We've been tracking the flight for several hours.

One thing I've consistently observed is that whenever a major political event is unfolding in Kenya, the President often seems to be out of the country.

The bigger question is this: after visiting more than 90 countries and announcing over 200 deals and agreements, which of those have significantly changed the lives of ordinary Kenyans?

This isn't even criticism. It's a simple question.

Some people get upset whenever I question these trips. That's fine.
But asking questions is part of accountability.

How many ? Very few; yet in the same country hospitals lack medicines students study under trees etc
