Women's nipples have holes in them that absorb our babies' saliva during breastfeeding and our bodies detect the vitamin levels of our babies. Based on those results our bodies begin to produce extra of the nutrients that our babies are lacking.
The current plan to destroy Nairobi National Park for a parking space is not development but a loss. Protected areas are our life-support systems. We call for the halting of clearing and protection of our park as once it is gone, it is gone forever. #ProtectNairobiNationalPark
When you install concrete or put cabro everywhere, and you have no sufficient drainage, where do you expect the water to go? Evaporate?
Lawns are there to help drain water, there’re no short cuts, we can’t keep cutting trees down instead of trimming them, or installing cabro everywhere to avoid tending to the flower beds and lawns.
There’s logic in how the environment works and coexists.
The biggest problem I suspect is that the wrong people are making decisions or the professionals are being ignored, we cannot keep saying the same things during every rainy season. In my own observation, it’s getting worse.
However we cannot lay full blame on those entrusted with our infrastructure when we the city dwellers have such bad manners littering everywhere blocking the little drains we have.
I called out a motorist in Mombasa years back, he shouted back and told me he was creating employment because of the boys who collect waste bottles by the roadside, hence we contribute greatly to the drainage issues in Nairobi and in other major cities and towns, we forget Nairobi was a swamp or rather riparian land to start with.
All said and done one can’t put own clean clothes while their body is muddy. Drainage isn’t an afterthought.
Nairobi needs a comprehensive drainage system especially before implementing of those 40-70 floor high-rise residential buildings.

🚨🚨BREAKING: Hep-B vaccine no longer recommended for newborn babies!
ACIP just voted YES to change the recommendation on the Hep-B vaccine. It is NO LONGER recommended just after birth. The recommendation is now:
“For infants born to HBsAg-negative women: ACIP recommends individual-based decision-making, in consultation with a health care provider, for parents deciding when or if to give the HBV vaccine, including the birth dose.A Parents and health care providers should consider vaccine benefits, vaccine risks, and infection risks. For those not receiving the HBV birth dose, it is suggested that the initial dose is administered no earlier than 2 months of age.”
The Kenya government, dissatisfied that farmers gained freedom to own and share their seeds, plans to appeal against the Seed and Plant Varieties Act judgement.
Yup, govt looked at the judgement and concluded, make indigenous seed sharing criminal again!

They forcefully moved people to Emerald tariff in which bundles expire at the end of the month. Previously these were non-expiry. Froze accumulated bundles, call minutes and sms, such that if you opt out, you loose everything! When you call they tell you that you can pay bills with the accumulated bundles! 🤡

Rapeseed was toxic. Gave heart lesions to mice in the '50s.
So they rebranded it “canola” and subsidized it into every kitchen in America.
Not to nourish us. To replace tallow with candle wax runoff.
Seed oils aren’t food. They’re industrial waste with heart healthy labels.
I’m honestly not surprised. Africa has always been treated like a testing ground for Western corporations, and Nestlé is just the latest proof. They deliberately load their baby cereals with added sugar for African markets, yet the exact same products are sold sugar-free in Europe. That double standard says everything about how they view African children’s health.
What makes it worse is that people like Professor Vandana Shiva have been warning us for decades about how these global corporations exploit the Global South experimenting on our communities, dumping lower-quality products, and pushing practices they wouldn’t dare use in their own countries. And here it is happening again, right in front of us.
It’s shameless, predatory behavior. These companies profit from parents who just want to feed their babies, all while giving African children ingredients they would never give to European kids. It’s exploitation masked as business.
