Captain Joseph Ririani is a former Kenya Airways pilot who founded the Kenya School of Flying in June 1992 to create an indigenous flight training institution owned and operated by Kenyans.
Frustrated that most Kenyan pilots had to train expensively in South Africa, he quit his job at KQ in 1996 to fully manage the school, which has since become one of Kenyaโs leading flight training schools.
In 2025, Ririani made headlines when he chained himself to an aircraft at Wilson Airport to protest land encroachment and developments around the airport perimeter, calling for safer training grounds for students.
@redbullracing@Max33Verstappen When @McLarenF1 were busy studying aero and constantly improving their car, you guys were busy changing the sidepods so that other teams would not copy yours and that's where you failed ๐คฃ๐.

Camp Mulla: The Rise and Fall of Kenya's Hip Hop Sensation
If you were a fan of Kenyan hip hop in the early 2010s, you probably remember Camp Mulla, the group that took the scene by storm with their catchy tunes and fresh style. They were hailed as the future of African music, and even got nominated for a BET Award in 2012. But what happened to them? Why did they break up? And where are they now?
Camp Mulla was formed in 2009 by four teenagers: Karun, Taio Tripper, Kus Ma and Shappa Man. They met at school and started making music together, influenced by American rap and R&B. They soon gained popularity online and on radio with songs like "Party Don't Stop", "Hold It Down" and "Feel No Pain". They also collaborated with other artists like Wizkid, M.I and Collo.
However, things started to go downhill in 2013, when Karun announced that she was leaving the group to pursue a solo career and study music in the US. The rest of the members tried to keep the group alive, but they failed to recapture the magic that made them famous. They also faced some legal issues with their former manager, who claimed that they owed him money. Eventually, they decided to go their separate ways and focus on their individual projects.
Some people might say that Camp Mulla was overrated, and that they did not have a lasting impact on the Kenyan or African music industry. They might argue that they were just a fad, and that they did not have enough originality or substance to sustain their success. They might also point out that they did not win any major awards or break any records.
However, others might disagree and say that Camp Mulla was a pioneer and a trailblazer, and that they opened doors for other young and talented artists to emerge. They might argue that they brought a new sound and vibe to the local scene, and that they inspired many fans and musicians with their creativity and charisma. They might also point out that they represented Kenya on an international platform, and that they made history as the first East African group to be nominated for a BET Award.
As for where they are now, here's a quick update on each member:
- Karun: She is now based in Los Angeles, where she is pursuing her solo career as a singer-songwriter. She has released two albums: Sun & Moon (2014) and Glow Up (2020). She has also collaborated with artists like Blinky Bill, Mr Eazi and Diplo.
- Taio Tripper: He is now known as Tito Summa, and he is still making music as a rapper and producer. He has released several singles and EPs, such as "Mungu Halali", "Mama" and "Summa Vibes". He has also collaborated with artists like Kagwe Mungai, Fena Gitu and King Kaka.
- Kus Ma: He is now known as Kus The Artist (KTA), and he is also still making music as a rapper and producer. He has released several singles and EPs, such as "Juice", "Kus Kus" and "The Wave". He has also collaborated with artists like Octopizzo, Khaligraph Jones and Nyashinski.
- Shappa Man: He is now known as Shappaman, and he is also still making music as a rapper and singer. He has released several singles and EPs, such as "Nairobi Yangu", "Bad Manners" and "Shappaville". He has also collaborated with artists like Nasty C, Victoria Kimani and Naiboi.
As for who's rolling in the money, it's hard to say for sure, since there are no official figures on their net worth or income. However, based on their social media presence and lifestyle, it seems that Karun is doing quite well for herself in the US, while the others are still hustling in Kenya.
But money is not everything, right? What matters more is that they are all still passionate about their music and their fans.
The simplest rule on our roads but the most flagrantly broken. Unsurprisingly,some time back I had โdriversโ on this app try to argue with me saying that you can stick to the right lane(s) if youโre on the speed limit. Same drivers didnโt know what a climbing lane is.
