This thing called love.
Barely two years ago Prof. Fred Ogalla was cooking for his lovely wife calling her Mum and doing everything possible to make a great husband.
Sadly, last week he was in Court demanding for the custody of his kids after a messy divorce with his wife.
Kenya’s government is pushing ahead with plans to establish an Ebola quarantine and treatment facility at a military installation in partnership with the United States after a Kenyan high court temporarily barred the arrangement earlier this week. https://t.co/eXflKgM90o
Safaricom has warned Parliament that mobile money fees could go up by as much as 18.4% if new Finance Bill 2026 tax changes are passed.
This comes after a proposal to change VAT rules on mobile money and payment services like M-Pesa
"Why do Americans think that their lives are more important than the lives of Kenyans?"
My CNN report on the public opposition to an Ebola isolation facility for Americans in Kenya
CS Aden Duale: There is nowhere where we said we are bringing Ebola patients to Laikipia. Laikipia is one of the isolation centers and it is very far from any community. US has contributed between 25-35% of the health budget since independence. The healthcare system that we are proud of regionally was not built only by us

Ebola will never be a global pandemic like COVID-19.
To trigger a true pandemic, a virus needs:
• Airborne/easy transmission
• Asymptomatic spread (stealth)
• Hosts well enough to travel
Why Ebola is different:
• Not airborne: Requires direct contact with bodily fluids.
• No stealth spread: Zero contagion until severe symptoms appear.
• Incapacitating: Hosts get too sick, too fast to board flights or mingle globally.
Highly virulent, but hard to catch.
While working in Eastern Congo, with Ebola infested communities, I witnessed a cultural shock!
There is a culture where the water used for cleaning the dead body is sprinkled on the present mourners!!
And since the dead family member died from Ebola, everyone at the burial was infected and after a week, thousands of dead bodies everywhere!!
The U.S -Kenya Ebola deal:
Then: Focused on Kenyans and local health workers-boost domestic medical surveillance to protect the Kenyan from regional outbreaks.
Now: Focus on American medical workers- treating/isolating U.S. personnel evacuated after Ebola exposure.
One day, you will pay school fees, hospital bills, and salaries.
You will stay awake calculating figures while others sleep peacefully.
It is the day you will realize your father carried a weight you never understood.
Now it is your turn,
The burden is heavy, but it is SACRED.
Your FATHER carried it, now carry it for your son.

PEPFAR is one of the most successful global health programs ever.
It provides HIV treatment for over 20 million people.
And now it faces a funding delay of up to 6 months.
Without access to treatment, HIV can rebound in less than a month.
This is self-defeating stupidity.
The immediate halting of funding to #PEPFAR places millions of lives in jeopardy. The IAS urgently calls on policy makers and stakeholders to restore the funding lifeline to this pivotal programme.
Lives depend on it, right now.
