1/ In 1985, CIA & Mossad pulled off a daring extraction right under Kenya’s nose bypassing one of Africa’s most feared spymasters, James Kanyotu.
Daily Nation has the story today. Here’s what happened: 🧵

Kwani nitawafunza kila kitu?
Muwache kutumia CPE devices za ISP. On top of shitty wifi, they can snoop on your private use.
You need to buy a mesh wifi system that supports wifi 6 or 7.
Good thing there's a cheap wifi 6 mesh router here:

@theashleyray@MelissaEJordan Why would I know to search the name of someone I don't follow or have in my friend sphere to find something that I had no idea she talked about? Jeez.

House hunting tip 101
Before signing that rental agreement, check the electricity meter setup!
Many rental plots and appartments use Last Mile Connectivity (LMCP) prepaid meters. This can quietly inflate your power costs even if you're buying tokens directly from KPLC. Here's why you MUST verify.
Under LMCP, households get a subsidized connection around KSh 15,000 fee advanced as interest-free Stima Loan. No upfront cash, but KPLC deducts 50% of EVERY token purchase to repay it until cleared often 2-3 years. So if you buy KSh 100 tokens, only KSh 50 worth of actual units. The rest pays off the landlord/property's subsidized connection.
As a Result, you pay the same or higher for tokens, but get fewer units compared to a normal non-LMCP meter with no loan deduction. Tenants effectively foot the bill for the subsidized meter/connection the landlord benefited from without any discount on your end. It's like paying extra rent disguised as power costs.
Pro tip to test before selecting a house:
Buy a small token, say KSh 100 directly via *977#, M-Pesa (paybill 888880), or app, using the meter's number. If you get normal units e.g., ~5-6+ units (depending on band/tariff), it's likely a standard meter and you are good to go.
If you get half the expected units i.e., only ~2-3 units or less, it's under LMCP with Stima Loan deduction. Walk away or negotiate lower rent to offset.
You should ask the landlord/agent upfront
if the meter under Last Mile Connectivity, or has any outstanding Stima Loan?. Alternatively, dial *977# and select manage meters/token to check details. If it's LMCP and loan is ongoing, factor that into your budget, or push for landlord to clear it by paying lump sum at KPLC office.
