Then in 2016, Estama company imported 100 containers and called them mobile clinics.
Painted them so well.
The company bought each at KSH 1.2 Million and sold to the Ministry of Health at KSH 10 million each, making a profit of Ksh 9 million per container.
The crooks were paid KSH 1 billion from the government and dumped the containers in Mombasa and Nairobi, and vanished.
Nobody has been convicted.
The heist just died silently.
We have gone through a lot.
The top 5 wealthiest people in the world are:
1. Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX
2. Larry Page: Google
3. Sergey Brin: Google
4. Jeff Bezos: Amazon
5. Mark Zuckerberg: META
What is the most interesting thing you can see about these billionaires?
These are not politicians.
They are not doctors or lawyers.
These are founders.
They founded, own, and invest heavily in technology innovation companies.
Now, if you want to be relevant in the next 10 years, invest your resources in these 5 companies.
This doesn't mean buying shares in them.
It means aligning your skills around these companies.
For example, if you are a carpenter, identify a product or service in these companies, then build an idea around it, and then develop a product or service based on those products or services.
Or, if you are an interior designer, find out how you can borrow an idea from these companies or how you can leverage your skill using the products and services built by these companies.
The era of saying,
"I am going to school because I want to be a lawyer," — is gone.
These traditional careers began losing their grandeur two decades ago.
I am not saying being a lawyer is bad.
What I am saying is that even if you are a lawyer, align your skills and leverage your work with the products and services of companies owned by the top 5 wealthiest individuals.
Why is this so?
Because where the wealthiest people are, that is where the value sits. That is what people want.
These billionaires are not there by accident.
They are there because the world wants what they are selling.
Keep your babies safe.
As we approach elections, wicked politicians are rushing to offer human sacrifices to their gods in return for a hypnotised society and electoral victory.
I watched Alex Ekubo's movies. Many of us did.
The smile.
The energy.
The confidence on screen.
The man looked like health walking.
40 years old and gone.
I'm not writing this as a nutritionist right now.
I'm writing this as someone sitting with the same shock you're sitting with.
The same confusion.
The same quiet fear that creeps in when someone who looked that alive is suddenly not here.
Cancer does not arrive screaming.
It whispers.
For months. Sometimes years.
A tiredness you explain away.
Weight loss you didn't work for.
A fullness in the belly that wasn't there before.
A dull ache under the right rib that comes and goes.
Skin that turns slightly yellow but you blame the lighting.
Appetite that disappears and you call it stress.
And you tell yourself, it's malaria.
It's village people.
It's spiritual.
It will pass.
It doesn't pass.
The liver is the most silent organ in your body.
It doesn't have pain receptors the way your skin does.
It can be damaged, heavily damaged, and say nothing.
It absorbs the abuse.
The wheat.
The sugar.
The late-night eating.
The seed oil.
The alcohol.
The medication.
Year after year. And it says nothing.
Fatty liver has no symptoms. You've heard me say this before.
But today it hits different.
Because fatty liver doesn't always stay fatty liver.
Sometimes the inflammation doesn't stop.
The cells keep dividing.
The damage keeps compounding. And sometimes, not always, but sometimes, what started as fat on the liver becomes something that no scan, no transplant, and no amount of money can undo.
And the liver is not where it ends.
That's what people don't understand.
Cancer in the liver doesn't stay in the liver. It travels.
To the lungs.
The bones.
The lymph nodes.
The brain.
By the time the liver finally screams loud enough for you to listen, it may already be somewhere else. Growing. Quietly. In places you can't touch or feel.
The liver was just the starting point. The cancer doesn't ask for permission before it moves.
By the time it screams, the bill is already running. The surgery. The chemo. The transplant. The hospital bed that becomes your address. The family WhatsApp group that shifts from jokes to fundraising links overnight.
And somewhere in that room, someone will ask: could this have been caught earlier?
The answer is almost always yes.
But nobody was paying attention.
I need to say this clearly.
Not every cancer comes from the plate.
Some cancers are genetic.
Some are random.
Some hit people who did everything right and still lost.
I do not know what Alex Ekubo ate.
I do not know his medical history.
I am not diagnosing a man I never met.
But I know this.
A body that is inflamed, overworked, underfed on real nutrients, and never given a break, that body has fewer defences. Against everything. Including the things we don't see coming.
You cannot control everything. But you can control what you put on your plate. And a body that is nourished, rested, and clean has a better chance of catching what's wrong early, and a stronger foundation to fight it.
This is not a post about blame.
This is a post about paying attention.
Check your body.
Get screened.
Ask for a liver function test.
Ask for an ultrasound.
Stop waiting for pain to be the messenger, because pain is cancer's last language. Not its first.
The liver whispers. It has been whispering to some of you reading this right now.
Rest well, Alex. You gave us joy. The screen won't be the same.
And to everyone still here, take care of the body you have. It is the only one you'll get.
Supporting your parents, siblings and relatives is a noble gesture.
It is moral to offer help where needed.
However, learn to say NO.
Stick to your budget.
Everyone is waiting for your downfall.
Everyone is waiting for the right condition to insult you.
Don't give them the opportunity.
Tighten your boundaries and close the doors.
Nobody is bold enough to condemn the level of homosexuality among politicians.
After their political rallies and events, these politicians retreat to hotels for sex orgies, alcohol and to sodomize boys who desperately follow them for money and opportunities.
It is a shame!
