My toxic masculinity is holding me back from doing so many things. I have never marched in a wedding before.

Fellow black kings, what's your toxic masculinity holding you back from?.

97/98 elñino floods in Nairobi nealy killed me.

Hapo '97, long before @MaithyaVilivu was born, I used to pick my son from school pale James Gichuru... every evening.

So I would leave town at 4pm, daily, to lavington.
I lived in Riruta, back then a village.

Around 3rd term, it had been raining nearly every afternoon and usual in Nirobi, rains would trigger endless jams.

That Thursday around 1pm, I noticed darker, more serious clouds gathering fast.

After lunch, I sat at my 'apple Mac' station for a minute halafu nikaskia kimvua kikubwa kikianza.

Memories of bad Nairobi jams made me to drop everything on my small desk, and left.

At University Way, jam ikaanza. I decided to use Mamlaka/Aboretum Rds.

Gridlock ilianza aboretum rd., and it was now raining very heavily.

Bear in mind there were no mobile phones then.

I left town at 2.30pm, darkness ilinikuta ile Shell ya aboretum chini ya state house.
By 7.30pm it was flooding.

I was driving a very old Mazda😓 hata wipers hazikua zinawork ( like Johnson's Nairobi).
By now, hapo Kileleshwa, it was a lake totally flooded.

At one time in the grindlock, around 11pm, my old mazda started floating on the flood waters.
Halafu every driver had lost it. Everyone for themselves.
Mkigongana, hakuna kushuka. Unasonga.

That day, its like satan had visited ilovi.

11.30pm, deep in floods, carburetor ya ka mazda ikaingia manji. Mimi nani, nikashuka.
Some 'thugs' wa ungwaro walikua wamefika hapo kileleswa. They demanded 100bob (now 2k) kukasukuma kando.

I removed and wiped the carburetor cap dry.

Two coughs, mafuta zikaisha! Mind you it is still raining.

'97 there were no bodas.
So I sent one of the 'thugs' to go all the way to Kenol, 'Benard' with sh. 200 and a jerry can to buy me petrol.
Thirty minutes later, the good guy brought the fuel, ka mazda kakakubali.

I left behind 100s of cars that had drunk the water and stalled.

By 1.30pm, jam ilikua ime ease kiasi.
Nilifika lavington shule past 2.00am.

70% of kids had not been picked. Teachers had kept them well and warm.

On my way home, I now used Kangemi/Uthiru. Nilifika homepast 2.30am.

That same evening, then President Moi was caught up in the same jam, from JKIA, at Uhuru Highway.
His guards nearly shot stalled motorists ati wasonge. Ikashindikana.They had to walk Moi in gumboots, to Intercon where he prolly ate and slept.

Nyinyi mlikua wapi 97?

CLARIFICATION

Should those who registered before 2012 as voters need to register afresh?

Not at all UNLESS they DID NOT register as voters from 2012 when the new Register of Voter (ROV) was established under the new Constitution of Kenya 2010 and boundaries delimitation of 2012.

REASON?
Because before 2012, the ROV was manual. In 2012, it went BIOMETRIC and so all eligible Kenyans were required to enrol and their Biometrics captured. This is the ROV that has been in place since 2013. As of the 2022 General Election, the Commission maintained an accurate and audited register comprising 22,120,458 voters.

So we have not asked ALL OLD VOTERS PRE-2012 to register a fresh. Just those few who might have missed to register in 2012 and who, subsequently, have never registered under the Biometric system to date.

No panic.!! Hapa kazi tu!

Been watching then all over sudden nikaamua kuenda balcony for some fresh air little did I know ni insticts.
A girl amepata seizure attack and as always crowds zikagather, one of them akawaadvise wampee maziwa.
Imebidi nimekimbia coz how they were managing it was very risky.

Wamemlalisha akiangalia juu alafu forcing her to take milk. This is very risky coz victim anaweza choke rahisi sana. Had to stop them and dispersed the crowd, checked her airway and luckily it was intact. Made her to lie on the side and stopped those women from giving her the milk. After like 5 minutes she was up, told the women to help her clear off the dirt on her clothes and definitely I had to give them some education incase of any future attack.

A person experiencing seizures and shaking involuntarily should be made to lie on the side, check airways to ensure 'asimeze' ulimi. The victim should NOT be given anything by mouth until they have recovered as they can easily choke since there is limited cough reflex.
Also ensure fresh air, loosen any tight clothes and remove anything that could cause harm.
The goal of managing a seizure attack to keep the victim off from any injuries.
Incase you come across such a case now you know what to do.

[Obiasogu David @afrisagacity]

To give this context, I’ll share my personal experience.

My Ex had “moved on” from the relationship even while we were discussing the bride price list.

It’s on a Monday, in the second week of January, 2021. Pretty much a hot evening (clocking past 7 pm). I had just returned from work, still sweaty and fagged out - Lagos traffic dealt me a heavy blow that evening.

As I was to hit the bathroom, my phone rang and it’s her! We hadn’t spoken for about three weeks - cos of a misunderstanding (that she caused).

I picked the phone and stared for a few seconds. First thing that rushed through my mind, “hmmm…this one you’re calling me today, you finally want to apologize.” So, I picked - with this hyped ego.

So I've received quite a number of DMs from parents raising special needs kids.
There was one specific tone in all : Anxiety.
Most are so scared of how they'll provide for their special ones n are emotionally drained under the weight.

So here's a short thread into our world

To find out which is the best Kenyan legal AI, I prompted them with probably the trickiest legal problem:

Who is entitled to inherit an estate between a customary wife, statutory wife, cohabitee, divorcee, and mistress and their parents and children? (Question 3)

I than ranked them in four categories. 1: look and feel; 2: speed; 3: humanness (how human they sound); and accuracy to the law. The results were quite surprising. In no particular order...

🚨DRINKING DENS & DESPERATION🚨
The Local Bar Story.

The first thing that hits you when you enter a drinking den Is Deja vu, because it's the same people everyday. The second is a sharp cocktail of urine smell, cigarettes, khat and cheap liqour. Then emotional odour; despair, regret ,hopelessness ,failed dreams and delusion.
The local bar is a world outside your reality, a life outside your life. A place you come to unwind while drinking cheap liqour because life "kwa hii ardhi inayomilikiwa na William Samoei Ruto" is unbecoming. It all starts as an habit ,but soon enough you get addicted to the life more than the substance.
The local is where everyone meets, from corporate to thieves of the night. All characters at the local, everyone facing a different predicament in their individual lives,come here to forget. All drinking dens look alike, from the backstreet Wines & Spirits in CBD to "County Pillar" in my village,they all look and smell same.On sale is Kariobangi industries liquor that's making people use Braille in Kirinyaga and Senator Keg ,"brack ama regular".

As usual,the waitress is called "Njeri", her dreadlocks dyed brown at the ends and held in a ponytail.For Mt Kenya women past 25 years, it means she has two kids eating macadamia in Karatina, and she's not in Nairobi to look for love but to hustle. The Waitress always has a crackhead sidekick who cleans the local and cups for drinks. He affords Jaba, Cigarettes and food ,which is enough for him. He reports before opening hours and leaves after closing ,an integral engine in the success of operations at the local.

At 7am ,there are probably three people at the local, the waitress, her sidekick and a lawyer going to work. There's always that lawyer that passes the bar every morning, it's not a trait I advocate for 💀. He's there because he probably hates his job and he's afraid he'll never be a real lawyer. You will never hear about him in court, he just speaks English and Latino words like "Amicus Curiae" Everyone likes him because he speaks fluent politics and bails patrons at the police station at 3 am.

8am-9am is throat opening hours for the informal sector, kamageras,nduthi guys, Mechanics. Literally everyone that's not in an office. This batch has a few individuals who must "toa lock" before commencing with their hand to mouth jobs. Money is tight but addiction is tighter. Their life is riddled by a loop of third world problems; School fees, rent, kids they didn't plan for,you name it. The nduthi guy is overwhelmed by marriage,the kienyeji wife he imported from Nyaribari chache ,is with child.

10am-12 noon the den is now at the mercy of online writers, .They finya kompyuta all night, sleep for a few hours and go spend their dollars by day binge drinking. A group of young men with the livers to stomach huge amounts of alcohol. The conversations revolve around world politics,tech, the dollar, and football banter,well informed and exposed guys. When you inquire where the BMW parked outside came from they just tell you "shughuli moja mbili tao"

1pm - 3pm is landing time for the regulars, these guys just appear at the local,no one knows where anyone lives , career or business they do ,they just appear ,mostly with a bag of khat and water. They never lack at the local and have all the juice on who is who at the local. The know when Njeri sleeps with whoever.

4pm - 5pm is for corporate world employees who either hate their jobs and miss unemployment.There is always that marketing girl who works at upperhill but passes by the den everyday because she enjoys the attention from hoodlums and degenerates. The banker who married early and his wife is pissing him off,he wastes time at the local before going home.

6pm-6am is time for hoodrats and people addicted to the life, they have things they are trying to escape in their lives,regret stemming from bad decisions.They steal,plaunder, receive and destroy. Or they are just busy during the day.

Thanks mates.
