Someone has been doing a very good job of trying to kill this story in the local media. Barely reported. As reported, the vehicle, KCQ 222X, belongs to Dawamu School, owned by Phillip Waithaka and his wife Claudia Waithaka. Their son, Kinuthia Waithaka was driving. Allegedly they came to the accident scene and took their child, left the rest. They allegedly have tried to say that a 34 year old relative was driving but witnesses from that night have refuted that claim.

Going to leave you with this tonight:
The best thing you can do for yourself is actively increase your surface area for luck to hit you. Go outside, travel more, go to new cates, museums, events, take a new route home, go for hikes, see cities, countrysides, take your notebook, speak to people, ask questions, start businesses - go on more side quests. You can literally just do things, and the more you do, the more serendipity and synchronicity will find you.
The only reason farming was demeaned and made it look like a poor man's job over the years, was simply to discourage self reliance and for them to take control over food industry.
UNLEARN.
I often think about the episode of the Blacklist where a woman doctor kidnapped anti-abortion male politicians and implanted a fetus into them. They either had to have the child or get an abortion, and it was one of the most fascinating and vindicating stories to watch.
Our parents are being conditioned to think young people are unruly. So that the message that we need to tame our youth sits better than our youth are fighting for us.
One thing I love about older friends is they don't obsess over your goals. They ask if you're taking care of yourself, if you're happy, and if you're making time for the things that bring you joy.
I once asked Pheroze Nowrojee why they kept challenging President Moi's authoritarian actions in Court in the 1990s when it was clear they would loose every time. He said:
"For the record! Nothing is more powerful in history than the record."

My fave Kenyanism word: Rada? Depending on the context it could mean WTF? It could mean “seriously?”. It could mean “what’s up?”. It could mean “the hell’s wrong with you?” And you can understand it by the tone someone uses when saying it, and I find it so beautiful.
whimsical people are whimsical because they’re hopeful. they’re always looking out for ways to romanticize life. even if you aren’t consciously spiritual, this is a highly spiritual trait, to have fun, to play with life and to invite joy by constantly noticing magic everywhere
Hello Stranger, Called Jaymoh, allow me to tell you a story. When I was 26 years, I owned only an extension(yes, for electricity), by 27 years 9 months, I had a million in my account. By 28 years 5 months, I had less than 100k. By 30 years, I had built my mum a house.
A thread.
There is no such thing as other people’s children. Every child is our collective responsibility to protect, guide, and defend. If we stay silent when children suffer, we become part of the problem.
Imagine ulipwe 30k , ukatwe tax, ulipe fare 300 daily…healthcare haifanyi, ushinde kwa jam at least 3 hours daily, hewa iko polluted, uko na mtoto ako shule and you’re the only parent or the only bread winner with a family…
Tell me you’ll be normal. How???
One day someone will write the history of Kenya and say, here lies a nation saved by its patriotic young people and built on the foundation of liberty, justice and prosperity for all.
We can change the narrative, all it takes is one generation
Living alone is such a beautiful experience I hope most people get to experience especially in their 20s. The beauty of not having to negotiate your space with anyone else, finding stuff exactly how you left them, discovering your style, girl dinner etc. Absolutely peak 🤌🏼
