Today I learnt that he even went ahead to establish the lumumba institute, had the Soviet fly in two tutors who would teach communist ideologies to the proletariat.
However, the cia squashed this at its infancy
Jaramogi and co. really tried their best to decolonize the nation at its infancy.
They were met by a brute force of imperialists who had been to Chatham house.
He leaned east, and understood the guerrilla struggles that communist nations had fought towards liberation.
The Academy is crumbling from within. State surveillance is not going to cut it.
GoK, please stop with this creepy behaviour. If not, then educate the police to become the new professionals. Let them be the doctors, lecturers, traders, drivers, and the farmers.
People like Oluga are the reason why Jaramogi wanted to start the Lumumba Institute. He realized that African civil servants were trained to serve the colonial system and British interests, and so he wanted the institute to retrain African civil servants to act in the interests of the Kenyan people. Within months of setting it up, Pinto was assassinated, the Lumumba institute was shut down, and Mboya hurriedly passed the Sessional Paper no 10 through parliament.
In Jaramogi's eyes, Oluga wouldn't have been qualified.
This is how the collapse of universities in the US began. Building stadia and spas instead of tuition breaks, classrooms and labs. @uonbi lecturers, how are you accepting this when you don't even get paid on time?
In the early years of CBC, I predicted that private schools would make a kill from parents running away from CBC. In fact, I suspected that CBC was imposed precisely to break the public school system and create a market for private schools, because at the time the curriculum was being imposed, foreign investors were buying up local schools and building new schools.
Anyway, Kenyans preferred #CBCisheretostay.

Raising your kid 16 years, then umpeleke boarding sch. so you haven't seen or talked to her in a month or more, then being called to identify her burnt remains after she dies in an intentional fire. No identifiable face or physical features, just bone and charr. Imagine that.
A 25-year-old housewife in Chennai earns ₹250/hour ($3) just by doing her normal housework.
She wears a phone on her head and records herself making coffee, cutting fruit, folding laundry.
These first-person videos get sent to AI companies training humanoid robots to handle real-world tasks. She shoots 90+ clips a day.
Her quote: "Who else will pay you ₹250/hour ($3) an hour just for doing housework?"
She's part of a growing gig economy in India where thousands are doing the same thing, filming everyday life to train the robots of tomorrow.
If someone at work tries to micromanage you, micromanage them back.
Send them too much feedback, ask them a lot of questions, do follow ups when they go quiet or even when you know they are busy don’t let them rest.
@XivTroy@pexpeter_ In 2024, Kenya embarked on constr of a $350 million stadium, while the country was knee deep in debt, universities lacked capitation, and families were dying of hunger and diseases.
Like clockwork 🥲
