Is power failure at #JKIA the new normal? It's not fun if u can't disembark an aircraft bcoz there is no power. Shouldn't @jkia have multiple stand-bye generators?
Most new HIV infections in SSA still happen in adolescents girls and young women(AGYW). They want deeper involvement in decision-making and implementation of interventions. #ICASA2023, #DREAMS, @PEPFAR
"AIDS is not over: Address inequalities, accelerate inclusison and innovation." The 22nd #ICASA2023 conference, Harare. Is injectable PrEP CAB-LA (Cabotegravir) the game changer in the arsenal of tools for HIV prevention?
The Lancet series #smallvulnerablenewborns regional launch, Nairobi. About 25% of all newborns are born too soon or too small. Tools to prevent and manage SVN are avaialble but need to be available to the most vulnerable.
How one essay can expose a Prof as an envious, jealousy, misogynistic, & unfulfilled colleague! Waste of my Sunday morning reading time! None of the 11 points I listed speaks to lack of deep thinking! Someone who knows u well needs to write about yo character while u are alive!
'A lot has been said and written about Prof Micere Mugo. Much of it is false and factually untrue. As her former colleague in the Department of Literature at the University of Nairobi, I feel called upon to set the record straight.' https://t.co/4On9nn9e4r
Mali’s recent request for the withdrawal of UN peacekeeping troops comes as no surprise.
After a coup in 2020 and another in 2021, the relationship between Malian authorities and Minusma deteriorated.

Nobody shud wish 4 military rule! But as policians mess up, men in uniform are watching. Not surprising juntas are welcomed by drum & dance. Blatant theft of resources; brutalizing & killing citizens; dictatorshop; nepotism; selfish manouvres like prepping own son to take over..
Kenya condemns the coup in Niger and calls on the immediate release of President Mohamed Bazoum who was seized by the presidential guard, President William Ruto.
In March, Putin wrote off the debts of African countries worth more than $20 billion. Recently, Putin said Russia will provide Burkina Faso, Zimbabwe, Mali, Somalia, Central African Republic, and Eritrea with 50,000 tons of free grain, with free delivery without any conditions.

@Liz_Kimani@CKyobutungi@DKadengye@agnes_kiragga@DrNampijjaM@gershim_asiki Sad state of affairs. Sometimes I wonder the kind of conversations big men have about their countries when they meet in world capitals! This doesnt look like a temporary fixture after a disaster. That is all the life folks here have known.
Yes, I did thanks. Not end of drama though. Following day Germany Border police arrested me for overstaying. Meeting was 3 days & didn't realise @GermanyinKenya had been given a generous 4 days! I signed crime papers, which I didnt read otherwise I wud have missed my next flight.
Like a country bus #LH175@lufthansa, Berlin-Frankfurt is attended by mechanics on de tarmac for 1.5hrs. Flight aborts n chaos in flight change ensue! Can't get a flight today, cant get a hotel voucher bcoz somebody at hotel is not picking calls! Really? Baggage missing, next?
Responding to new health challenges using same approaches as we have done in past is unlikely to give us desired results. Innovation, data sharing, strengthening systems for health, capacity building & joint action are critical. The @EPHconference happening now #EPH2022.
