@DonaldBKipkorir You're absolutely correct Donald. She has always identified as Indian, even her cooking is Indian. I watched her on a cooking show. She never identifies with her father, almost always citing her mother as the pillar in her life.
Ministry of Finance in any Country is the Mother Ministry. It s a sprawling civil service infrastructure. It is where the MAFIA resides. Hon. John Mbadi acquitted his nomination with clear understanding of what awaits him. Mbadi comes to the Ministry as a true outsider, the Ministry having been since independence a preserve of Kikuyu & Kalenjin Nations with once in a while brief tenures of other tribes. Mbadi has unique opportunity to overhaul both the human resource & philosophy of the Ministry. Kenya hasn’t really moved forward since 1963. To fix Kenya, something has to give. A key one to give is the Ministry of Finance. As our Minister for Finance, Mbadi has to burn down National Treasury & rebuild anew.
Compare Prof. Njuguna Ndung’u to Prof. Kithure Kindiki. When Kindiki was a Law Professor in Moi University, he came to see me for advise on opening law practice. I advised him & referred some clients to him. Kindiki has never forgotten. Kindiki always picks my calls. And if he doesn’t, he will always call back. And he has bought me lunch so many times. Kindiki though Professor of Law doesn’t like being called Professor. If there is a person who epitomizes HUMILITY, it is Professor Kithure Kindiki. May God always watch over him.
🇿🇦 One of worst mass killers in South Africa’s history is free from prison - and is finally ready to speak.
Thirty years since his atrocities, his victims are still fighting for closure and justice.

NOT a SINGLE one of the Cabinet Secretaries has APOLOGIZED for FAILING the people of Kenya and the President. Instead, they are only THANKING the President for giving them a chance to “SERVE.” Tone deaf. Please take responsibility. Say I am SORRY.
What Gen Z are saying (as I heard them):
1. That the President show empathy for the families of those killed & to those injured. That the killed & injured have names, families and friends. They are not statistics nor criminals. If the President can’t lead the Nation in mourning & grieving, who will?
2. That the President pronounces himself that the Police must respect the Constitution & end extrajudicial abductions & kidnappings. That the Police stop terrorism on citizens. And Police violating the Constitution must know that soon, they will be personally liable.
3. That it is not about taxation but fiscal discipline by Government. More money is wasted than is collected. Chief Economic Advisor says everywhere is leaking!
4. That it is not about roads or house or employment but public transparency & integrity in public offices.
5. That corruption, tribalism & nepotism be ended. One leader has employed all his relatives in Government.
6. That there be humility in public leadership. Hubris, arrogance & talking down on citizens should end. Mta-do is primitive & archaic.
7. That public theft ends. Leaders with known salaries are driving big cars, live in big houses, wear expensive watches, fly helicopters & give out millions every weekend with known salaries can’t afford them. And they flout traffic rules.
8. That the Soul of Country needs to saved. It is not about material things.
9. Moral responsibility is higher calling than criminal culpability. Leaders don’t need to be convicted before they are suffered. Chapter 6 of the Constitution is about MORAL RESPONSIBILITY not CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY.
PS. My advise to the President is out of knowing him since 1992 & coming from the same town & desiring him to succeed. It is made in good faith & outmost diffidence.
The Kenyan Government is keen to support all forms of start-ups, as a way of jump-starting the economy. This will help in creating more jobs thus helping the government meet its target of boosting revenue collection and resuscitating the economy.
