@makaumutua Prof, is your wish paramount or universal? Why do we have them in the first place?

@SafaricomPLC @SafaricomPLC What's the justification for Safaricom to charge an arm and a leg for M-Pesa transactions when the electronic logistics of doing it are similar to sending an SMS? Is it a shilling to send an SMS. Bear in mind that the transaction occurs within their own network?

@SafaricomPLC , Sending KES 101 is 7/=;
Withdrawing it is 29/=;
Total: 36/=

Total transaction fees on KES 101 is 36/=.

A whopping 36%!🤔

From 101 net is 65/=.

[Zalo, Kenneth @_KenManZ]

M-PESA imposes disproportionately high fees on small transactions, reaping off low-income Kenyans who can't use other cheaper channels... Turning a necessity into oppressive exploitation.
Sending KES 101 is 7/=;
Withdrawing it is 29/=;
Total: 36/= (36%! Sad!!!)

@Pettikim @NationAfrica @UASU_KE Moi University is still on strike today

[Zalo, Kenneth @_KenManZ]

@Pettikim @NationAfrica @UASU_KE Understand the dynamics... Moi University Chapter went on strike earlier, then the National office called for a National strike last week. Lecturers at Moi were in 2 strikes at some point: The National strike and the Chapter strike. What was called off was the National strike.

[Daily Nation @NationAfrica]

Moi University lecturers strike and other employees demonstrate in Eldoret City.

They are demanding full payment of their salaries and pension remittances, among other grievances.

@AokoOtieno_ @Honcalebamisi What do you gain in being told?

[Stephen Mutoro @smutoro]

I am seated somewhere. Next table is an MP (from Kakamega County) whom I know. He doesn't know me. He is seated with a prospective contractor (from Northern Kenya) - and 3 of his aides. They are loud enough
- MP: I will give you affordable housing project.
- Contractor: I want a big job
- MP: Ok. I'll talk with the Governor to give Level 4 hospital and a market. But 10% in advance ...

@Itumbi_Denis @Honeyfarsafi So what?

[Zalo, Kenneth @_KenManZ]

@RodgersKipembe Waste of time

[Orion @035Orion]

Whatever is happening at Moi University is a true depiction of "Siasa mbaya maisha mbaya"

[Zalo, Kenneth @_KenManZ]

@Itumbi_Denis Pay University lecturers first.

[Zalo, Kenneth @_KenManZ]

@StandardKenya Why 25? Must he always make impossible promises?
