@AbdulahiAdan10 An officer who understands his authority and limits.

[William Samoei Ruto, PhD @WilliamsRuto]

We celebrate you, Sabastian Sawe, for a performance of rare brilliance at the London Marathon. You have not only claimed a historic victory; you have redrawn the limits of human endurance, smashing the world record and breaking the two-hour barrier with extraordinary resolve.

This is more than a win; it is a defining moment. Your triumph places you firmly among the greats of global athletics and reaffirms Kenya as an enduring force at the pinnacle of distance running.

We also commend Hellen Obiri and Joyciline Jepkosgei for their remarkable second and third-place finishes in the women’s race. Your discipline and competitive fire continue to define the standard of Kenyan excellence on the world stage.

You have lifted our flag high, inspired a nation, and reminded the world of the power of determination. We are proud.

@LarryMadowo Careful! You may be traded when payment for operators is due. The other guy woke up there and is still in court. Some serious balls to write this. Hope they don't bust when kicked.

The truth is, Kenya’s obsession with “top schools” is misplaced. Our glorified national schools are a relic that fuels elitism, tribalism, and inequality. While parents fight for spots at Alliance or Mangu, most children are left in underfunded schools that barely function.
Every county deserves schools just as good—but until we scrap the “national school” mindset and focus on fair funding, quality teaching, and equity, we’ll keep pretending a few success stories mean the system works. It doesn’t. Not for most Kenyan children.
