A coworker died yesterday morning😭.
HR knew by 9 :00 AM, but they kept us working all day. They finally told us around 4 :30 PM, then had the nerve to say, "You can head home early if you need to"—knowing we all finish at 5: 00 PM anyway.
This morning, it’s back to "business as usual." Some of my friends are literally sobbing at their desks, but they’re expected to work and be productive. No time to grieve.
It’s a cold reality. Within a week, the company will have his job posted online. Within a month, someone else will be sitting in his chair.
But his family ,his children will still talk about him every day,they will ask where is daddy , His wife will mourn him for ages ,he was the love of her life .
At work, we are just a "resource" that can be replaced in a week. At home, we are the world. Stop giving your best energy to a desk that will forget you, and giving the "leftovers" to the people who never will.
My people, I know most of you will disagree with me on this, but hear me out.
What Samia Suluhu(Idi amin mama) has done to Tanzania’s democracy barring Tundu Lissu, jailing critics, rigging the vote, is the same playbook Paul Kagame perfected in Rwanda.
And now? William Ruto is quietly running it in Kenya.
Not with guns. Not with jails.
But with handshakes, posts, and “broad-based govt” illusions.
The late Raila Odinga? Now in the govt.
Gideon Moi? Alliance sealed.
Next: Gachagua? Matiang’i? Kalonzo? Who knows.
He is not silencing you directly; He's buying the silence of your leaders.
But here’s what they forgot: we are the majority.
60% of East Africa is under 30.
We stopped the Finance Bill in 2024.
We are not dumb.
2027 is not an election, it’s a referendum on our future.
No more selling out.
No more illusions.
This time, we choose ourselves. ✊🏾
