Barakallahu fi umrik. May your years be adorned with His choicest favours.
WISDOM COMPOUNDS.
SO DOES IGNORANCE.
Choose extraction over exposure.
Build judgementworth transferring.

My latest piece:
The Most Expensive Myth in Leadership: Why Experience Is Just Exposure
Experience accumulates with time.
Judgement accumulates with extraction.
The two are related, but they are not the same.

Two people can experience the same events and emerge with very different judgement.
Two organisations can experience the same failures and learn very different lessons.
Time creates experience.
It does not automatically create wisdom.
Experience records the past.
Principles improve the future.

I wanted Arsenal to win.
But football, like leadership, is often a ruthless teacher.
The final reinforced a principle that extends far beyond sport:
Being ahead and being in command are not always the same thing.
The lessons were too interesting not to write about.
Being ahead and being in command are not the same thing.
The scoreboard said Arsenal were ahead.
The game suggested otherwise.
A lesson in leadership, strategy, and influence from the Champions League final.

Arsenal had the lead.
PSG had the game.
My reflection on why the 2026 Champions League Final was decided long before the penalty shootout, and what Arsenal must learn.

Public service, in all its forms, demands two disciplines: the moral courage to keep visibility anchored in responsibility, and the patience to carry responsibility beyond the fleeting moment, until the work holds, as it must.

The power to speak within the insulation of privilege, conferred by the sovereignty of the people, carries an obligation. It has to be exercised with sufficient care.

Politicisation of health services is a serious threat to devolution. It invites the public to view administrative processes as obstacles to be circumvented, and risks transforming service delivery systems into ones susceptible to pressure and perception.
Witnessed the signing of the Intergovernmental Participation Agreements (IPA) and tripartite Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for the regional cancer centres in Mombasa, Garissa and Nakuru, a critical step towards strengthening sustainable service delivery and expanding access to specialized oncology care across Kenya.
With 44,000 new cancer cases diagnosed annually, these SLAs are essential.
They ensure structured maintenance, quality assurance and rapid response for high-value radiotherapy equipment, particularly linear accelerators, keeping these life-saving technologies fully functional and reliable.
Anchored in the principles of Universal Health Coverage (UHC), the regional hubs are being positioned as safe and dependable referral centres, bringing specialized care closer to every Kenyan while safeguarding public investments.
The Government remains committed to expanding cancer care through the Social Health Authority (SHA), raising the oncology benefits package to KES 800,000 per person and benefiting over 29 million Kenyans.
By strengthening collaboration between public and private partners, we are ensuring that quality cancer care is within reach for all.
I call on the Council of Governors and county governments to ensure the availability of trained personnel and essential consumables, including brachytherapy source wires, thermoplastic masks and imaging reagents, critical for daily operations.
Going forward, we will harness the Digital Superhighway to interconnect these three regional centres, further enhancing the reach and quality of cancer care for every Kenyan.
The signing ceremony was attended by Principal Secretaries Dr Ouma Oluga (Medical Services), Ms Mary Muthoni (Public Health and Professional Standards), Governors Hon. Abdulswamad Sherrif (Mombasa), Hon. Susan Kihika (Nakuru) and Hon. Nathif Jama (Garissa) among other Government officials.

this creates a misalignment with the regulatory weight of the story. “Reins” would be more precise.
Maybe it's an editorial style choice, reflecting how newspaper writing has evolved, with greater licence for readability over precision. A business editor would likely use Rein

Sir, anyone with a keen ear for the language would pause and weigh the distinction.
The headline using RAIN is idiomatically clever and emotionally catchy but the story presents CBK not as a killjoy, but as a regulator asserting legal and compliance boundaries.
In my view,
🎉 Kudos, @abdifatahII 👏
