It is clear that #CorruptionKE is premeditated. Economic crimes are not slapped with fines that dis-incentivise these nefarious activities. Was there public participation when this act was being put together? Do we really care about our country? @MzalendoWatch@theelephantinfo
I know that by doing this, I'm forfeiting my ability to travel to Kenya at least while this U.S. government puppet remains president, but I have chosen to stand with my African brothers and sisters.
WILLIAM SAMOEI RUTO MUST GO!🇰🇪

Some of grew up being told that football leads you nowhere. It is true. So long as we cannot take charge of our destiny, our beauty and our strengths are useful only to others.
African peoples of the world: we need to read the signs. Capitalism is pipelining football towards an elite tournament, like the one the American owners of Man U tried to impose on the club. They haven't stopped salivating after turning global football to look like American franchises. We of African descent will be reduced to spectators and the poorest paid pro players because we play "uninteresting" games.
We need our own football federation independent of FIFA. That requires foregoing FIFA bribes, abuse of our sovereignty and most of all, an actual commitment to developing football.

@wmnjoya I am for fighting for the creation of a political economy that is productive and that allows innovation of the citizens first. The place of the ID should be a guarantor to public services and a document of travel to African countries so that one can be placed geographically.
@wmnjoya this video about the making of the English working class reminds me of what you try to teach us, in public. It is taken from a phenomena of the artist Bansky's public art being locked behind barriers. Very interesting.

@wmnjoya Dystopia is in every Euro-futurism book you will ever read. George Orwell '1984' is a fascinating book because all the ingredients were already in place. I was an avid reader of Isaac Asimov who in the 1920s had written about robots and the social repercussions of a "Terminator"
#Kenya, it is so sad that we are being compared to expensive European countries when it comes to the cost of electricity when it comes to industrialisation. As we speak, Europe is de-industrialising and the factories are going to China. In Africa, #Ethiopia and #Nigeria are best.
That's not quite what happened. Those who tried to change the knowledge dynamics were hounded out of power. In Kenya, Oginga Odinga and Bildad Kaggia noticed there was a problem with Kenyans' political consciousness and started the Lumumba Institute for political education. The vision was to produce cadres who would then be in the media and civil service. The institute didn't last a year. The Americans helped the Kenyan conservatives to shut it down. Meanwhile, the US, through UNESCO, viciously campaigned against expansion of education in developing countries. The US was saying that what needed expansion was media, but really, what they wanted was for American propaganda to reach the grassroots in real time without being subjected to criticism and delay that come from culture and education.

@wmnjoya We don’t have a “village”. We have urbanity, the worst kind. Strangers packed in plots next to each other. Everyone eking out a living, despair morphing into preying on one another. Idleness, substance abuse, crime, while those who steal are seen flaunting, on cheap mobile phones
@wmnjoya AI is an abstraction from information. Google Search is the first. SEO - search optimisation. Then “people” gamed SEO. Ad words and propaganda appear at the top. AI can surface a research paper IF it has been SEO’d. Now there is AIO. If you know Vasco Da Gama, you will know this.
@wmnjoya I admire him as well. When asked why he does interviews with the likes of Pierce Morgan, he says he is compelled to do it. The only condition is it has to be live. He does not do recorded interviews any more for obvious reasons. Born in the US but relocated to Iran completely. ✊🏾
No matter how we try to run away, we need cheap electricity costing KES 10/KWh inclusive of taxes and tariffs. We can do this, #Kenya. We should take our country back so that we can be #kenyaisrising.
Kenya🇰🇪 suspends $1 billion Microsoft data centre as energy shortfall raises doubts over Africa’s AI ambitions
Kenya’s plans to host a $1 billion data centre backed by Microsoft and UAE-based G42 have stalled, after President William Ruto said the country lacks sufficient power capacity to support the project.
@sholard_mancity How should our constitution work? The Auditor General flags a bad deal. This report comes to the National Assembly. What is meant to happen after that?
Awesome mic drop moment from @MukamiPurity on @citizentvkenya prime time. As Purity, @johnallannamu and @joy_kirigia point out we’ve published methodology explaining our analysis. We have our receipts. The government refuses to show theirs while telling Kenyans to “trust me bro.”
