Ababu Namwamba might have been the best Sports CS we have had under this regime.
There was something about how quickly he moved to address certain football issues, particularly those involving management wrangles. He was hands-on and seemed willing to get into the trenches when the situation demanded it.
He was also instrumental in Kenya’s AFCON 2027 bid and had spoken about Nairobi’s ambition to host the 2029 World Athletics Championships long before the formal bid was eventually submitted.
Looking back, perhaps we did not appreciate his time in the Sports docket enough.

There’s a simple blood test called NIPT that uses DNA sequencing, which a pregnant woman can take to check whether the baby she’s carrying has genetic abnormalities such as Down syndrome. This test should be standard of care for every pregnancy!

Nairobi has beaten London to win the bid to host the 2029 World Athletics Championships, marking the first time the global event will be staged in Africa.
Vilifying ICC and “We can’t send our own to ICC” helped sell the Uhuru-Ruto ticket in 2013. What followed was near economic collapse under Uhuru.
Today, “Wantam” risks becoming same emotional shortcut.
Without socio-economic philosophy, Kenyans will be hoodwinked again.
I hope I never become too busy to notice the small evidence that life is going right. A good conversation. A safe journey home. A meal you enjoyed. A laugh you didn't plan. Those moments count too.
This is how white people write history. Dr Crispin Odhiambo Mbai did not sacrifice his life at the hands of Kikuyu mafia for us to be getting such idiotic takes.
Kibaki sabotaged the 2005 constitution which failed miserably. The COK 2010 was in Raila’s 2007 manifesto and Kibaki was forced into agreeing to it during negotiations for the grand coalition government in 2008. It was a condition mandated by Raila’s team.
Kibaki stole the spotlight during the promulgation to claim all the glory knowing fully well that the implementation had to start in the next government and no his.
