🚨BREAKING: iShowSpeed addresses criticism accusing him of being disrespectful for not collaborating with content creators during his Africa tour in Nigeria.

Speed explains that the purpose of the tour is not streamer collaborations, but to showcase the culture of Africa’s countries — highlighting everyday people who are rarely seen, street performers with real talent, and local communities.

He makes it clear that every stop on the tour is pre-planned, time-restricted, and carefully scheduled by his crew, with specific locations he must reach in each country.

He adds that many of the creators complaining already have platforms of their own, while this tour is about giving exposure to people who don’t.

Speed says he won’t cancel cultural visits or moments arranged by locals just to accommodate influencers, stressing that the goal is to put African culture on display for the world — not to centre the tour around content creators

Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe

Okonkwo is the greatest warrior alive.

His fame has spread like a bushfire in West Africa and he is one of the most powerful men of his clan.

But he also has a fiery temper.

Determined not to be like his father, he refuses to show weakness to anyone even if the only way he can master his feelings is with his fists.

When outsiders threaten the traditions of his clan, Okonkwo takes violent action.

Gold in the Motor Sports Category at the World Sports Photography Awards 2026. 🥇

A proud moment for me, my country Kenya 🇰🇪and the Safari Rally.

When the Safari Rally returned to the WRC circuit in 2021, I was one of a handful of Kenyan photographers accredited to shoot at the rally.

I have been privileged to shoot at every WRC Safari Rally Kenya ever since, making the 2025 edition my fifth in a row.

This winning image was captured during Shakedown at Sleeping Warrior. Unlike regular rally stages that are run once before the cars dash on to the next stage, at Shakedown, the drivers run the stage three to four times. These back-to-back runs give us the photographers a chance to change our shooting positions and settings, with the goal of capturing the best shots.

I almost always shoot in AV mode which didn't change on the different runs. What changed was my shooting position, from a jump to this one which is where I captured my favourite images from the rally and this winning shot.

The dust Grégoire Munster and Louis Louka in their Ford Puma Rally1 are kicking up is called fesh fesh. It is almost watery in nature yet very dry, hence the splashy look it produces in photos.

Thank you @WorldSportsPix for the recognition as well as @canonemeapro @CanonUKandIE @canonusa and @canoncna for supporting photography talent worldwide.

Guys, there is NO reason to believe that the collapse in South C this morning is a problem limited to South C.

We should just assume all the constructions in Nairobi that are underway, and many that are complete, have the same lapses until proven otherwise

Kenya and the United States have signed a historic Health Cooperation Framework making Kenya the first country to enter a government-to-government agreement with the US.

In the agreement, the United States will invest directly in government health institutions and not NGOs.

The US will commit $1.6 billion (KSh208 billion) to Kenya over the next five years under the new framework. - https://t.co/vOl7Xo94rI

KENYA-UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT HEALTH COOPERATION FRAMEWORK

It has been the honour of my life leading Kenya Government’s negotiations with the Government of the United States of America.

Countrymen and women, we proudly and firmly anchored the priorities of the administration and the values of the people of Kenya in the framework that has been signed today.

I’m heartily grateful for the leadership of His Excellency President Dr. @WilliamsRuto, CGH; the guidance of Cabinet Secretary Hon. @HonAdenDuale, EGH; the detailed collaboration of colleague Principal Secretaries just to mention the overall one-government approach; the facilitative commitment of the American team led by Brad Smith and the detailed eye and mind of professionals at the Ministry of Health.

This signing marks the end of months of sometimes very difficult engagements and the start of new era of government to government cooperation. For me, it makes meaning having been right at the centre of evaluating the impact of closure of USAID programs.

We shall implement this framework efficiently, effectively and with accountability.

[Department of State @StateDept]

Foreign assistance should bolster allies and advance American national interests — not pad the pockets of overpaid executives in the NGO complex. Our new America First foreign assistance cuts out the middlemen and ensures that every dollar achieves direct impact saving lives and advancing strategic priorities.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Met with Kenyan President @WilliamsRuto. We signed a groundbreaking agreement that protects American taxpayers, empowers Kenya, and saves lives. We also discussed security cooperation, commercial opportunities for American businesses, and Kenya’s significant contributions to Haiti’s security.

[Shigi @JimmyShigi]

Great step and insightful change of approach towards localisation and sustainability at the point of need and frontlines. Congratulations to both governments and the dedicated teams that put this visionary framework together.

🚨Hunger is tightening its grip on families in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Right now, 1 in 4 people in the DRC will go hungry. For families who’ve fled violence, hunger isn’t a possibility - it’s a daily certainty.
