A man can be seated next to you, smelling of perfume, polished shoes, clean shirt, and inside him there is a whole funeral service happening.

Whoever lied to Africans that playing golf is a measure of success did a good job.

"To handle demand, NTSA will license private garages and inspection centres, aiming to ease congestion and improve access nationwide."

Like I said, Kenya's economic model is not production. It's regulation. GoK creates business for enterprises by enforcing regulation that Kenyans cannot do without getting. So now we have to pay not only taxes and levies, but also licenses.

The time and energy Kenyans could use to invent and produce is now spent on getting clearances. Then there's nothing produced, nothing to sell, nothing to grow the economy and employ people with, and nothing to trade with internationally.

And it's been like this since colonial times. The settlers even used to tell the colonial government that Africans must be so squeezed to pay licenses, taxes and applications for passes to move around, so that the only time Africans are left with is to work for the settlers for peanuts to pay the taxes and licenses and apply for passes to move around. GoK took the place of the settlers and maintained that economic model of growth through control of Africans, and making them pay for their own control. The colonialists made them pay through cheap and forced labor, taxes, and through confiscation of their livestock if Africans couldn't comply.

Until we understand colonialism as an economic system, we won't understand how much GoK didnt change a bit after 1963.

But history is irrelevant to the market, right?

Anyway, #CBCisheretostay

Intellectual intimacy is top tier but unfortunately such a rare find. Deep conversations, opinions, debates, humour, banter, connecting on a deeper level hits way harder than just on a surface level
