@pallnandi Make your goal to be financial freedom and kiss the worries bye bye.

Paul Njuguna, a retired technical manager at the Agricultural Development Corporation, invested Ksh 16 million in 2019 to set up Elgon Pine, a refined oil and animal feed plant in Eldoret. At its peak, the plant processed 90 tonnes of canola, sunflower, and soya annually, with capacity for 300 tonnes. Njuguna contracted about 100 farmers who supplied raw materials, while he also farmed 10 acres himself.
The business also produced poultry feeds and soap from crop by-products.

The venture collapsed after Kenya Power slapped him with a Ksh 400,000 bill in August 2021, compared to his usual monthly bill of about Ksh 30,000. Njuguna disputed it as an error and filed a complaint, but Kenya Power claimed underbilling and refused to adjust. When he failed to pay, Kenya Power disconnected electricity to both his plant and home. Though EPRA ruled in his favour and ordered reconnection, the power was never restored, forcing him to shut down operations.

The shutdown affected the entire value chain - contracted farmers, suppliers, and employees - all of whom lost income. Njuguna now questions whether the disconnection was deliberate sabotage and why Kenya does little to protect small industrial ventures. His case has raised concerns about how utility billing errors and slow dispute resolution can destroy promising local businesses and the livelihoods tied to them.

Fraud is such a terrible thing, man. You’ll work hard for years, looking forward to retirement, only for someone to clear out your accounts overnight. I feel so bad for old people who have to suffer through things like that after spending their whole lives working.

There is nothing radical about wanting public money used properly. Nothing extreme about demanding transparency. Nothing criminal about asking leaders to serve citizens honestly. That is called democracy!

Wise men spend their time perfecting their gardens so they don’t waste time chasing butterflies.

When butterflies see a beautiful garden, they can’t help but come closer. even if they ignore the garden, the man is still left with something beautiful he built for himself. 💪🏿❤️

In Kenya, with only academic papers, without generational wealth, scamming and corruption, your life starts at 27- 30.. That's when you find a job, you find purpose and direction.. There is nothing like starting over at 29 because you haven't even started

@Cathiewabomba Investment is about de-risking. A coastal refinery removes market risk — if one market fails, exports shift elsewhere.Uganda political climate is unpredictable,while Kenya and TZ have had transition politics. In Nigeria, he has used aggressive price cuts to squeeze out importers

If any country want to be developed they should follow exactly what the Asian tigers and China did. Crush corruption totally, hire on meritocracy in government offices and all national project must be interest free and done by locals!

Wealth is not built by waiting for a “big break.” It is built by discipline, ownership, patience and the courage to put money where it can grow.

[Tim Denning @Tim_Denning]

The most lucrative skill you can develop is to have a limitless mindset and believe anything is possible for your life.

The best reason to get wealthy is to not have to be around annoying people anymore. It’s not just financial freedom that you want. It’s social freedom too. Quality of life is primarily determined by the type of people you spend 16 hours a day with. All the money in the world doesn’t matter if you have to be around annoying people.

[Tai Lopez @tailopez]

Dostoevsky was right when he said, “All this struggle just for life to end on a random day.” So don’t take yourself so seriously. It’s the key to happiness.

I’m going to win at life. So, naturally I treat people more like contemporaries, partners, spectators and teachers, if not friends. It’s true that I can be as ruthless as cute faces come. But you’d likely never get a hateful reaction from me unless extremely necessary.
