I’ve signed a petition calling for accountability over the humiliation of a Grade 10 student in the Kenyan Senate. No child should ever be degraded in public institutions. Join me in demanding action and stronger protections for children’s dignity: https://t.co/K7a8q1BgOf

[Farida Bemba Nabourema @Farida_N]

The nation that arranged the poisoning of Toussaint Louverture of St Domingue ( Haïti) for demanding the end of slavery and the liberation of his people in 1803; that assassinated Ruben Um Nyobe, the Cameroonian independence leader hunted down and killed in 1958 by French forces before independence was even formally granted, that had Felix Moumie of Cameroon, poisoned in Geneva by his intelligence in 1960, that orchestrated the assassination of Sylvanus Olympio of Togo by soldiers of his colonial army in 1963, that armed and protected the man who murdered Thomas Sankara in 1987 and sheltered him for decades, that supported the destabilisation that led to the overthrow and death of Modibo Keita of Mali, that printed millions of fake currency to destroy the Guinean Franc after 8 failed assassination attempts at Sekou Toure because he stood his grounds and demanded independence, that stood behind the forces that removed and destroyed Patrice Lumumba, coordinating with Belgium and the CIA to ensure Congo’s most visionary independence leader did not survive his own government, that massacred at least 100,000 Malagasy people, 250,000 Cameroonians, 1.2 million Algerians between 1955 and 1962 simply because they demanded their independence.

The president of that nation, less than half a century after committing such atrocities stood before a room full of African heads of state in 2026 and declared itself the true Pan-Africanist. And not one of them stood up.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Not one said: you cannot use that word: not here, not with that history on this continent. Not a single one had the dignity to say what any person with an elementary knowledge of what Pan-Africanism means and what France has done to those who practiced it would have said immediately and without hesitation.

It is the equivalent of a Nazi leader standing before a Jewish assembly and announcing that Germany is the true defender of the Jewish people. There are words that carry such historical mass that no political convenience, no diplomatic ambition, no funding arrangement justifies allowing them to be stolen and worn by those who spent generations trying to destroy what those words represent; Pan-Africanism is one of those words. And it was surrendered in that room without a fight, by men who were supposed to be there representing us.

France is not even a formidable power anymore. It cannot impose its will on its own European neighbourhood. Its economy is strained, its global influence is null, its African military presence has been expelled. It intimidates no one who has chosen not to be intimidated. And yet these boneless, prideless, senseless humans we call Africa leaders sat and applauded this humiliation ritual.

What breaks me is knowing that every generation, without fail, produces its quota of leaders who will trade the dignity of their people for a photograph with a western head of state, for a seat at a table that was never set for them. They dress it up as pragmatism and call it diplomacy. But it is the oldest and most contemptible transaction in the postcolonial playbook: the surrender of collective dignity for personal visibility.

And these are days, I will not pretend otherwise, where I genuinely wonder if we will ever be free.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Not because the struggle is not real or the people are not capable, but because freedom requires leaders at the decisive moment, and every decisive moment seems to find us represented by spineless, glory-hunting, photograph-chasing men who would sell the graves of their own predecessors for a handshake with those that tried to erase their people. Every generation inherits the fight for freedom but also produces the cowards who auction it.

Kenya is truly an amazing country. Never has a (purportedly) sovereign nation taken such pride, not in just being an imperial outpost, but being a regent of an Empire in which they have zero stake other than the emperor's avuncular gaze. What a time to be alive.

Kenya needs a new President - they deserve better than William Ruto

[NTV Kenya @ntvkenya]

Okiya Omtatah: While Kenya bleeds, legacy politicians remain silent. Many are not fighting to fix the system. They are fighting to inherit it... If we remain silent while our country is looted, future generations will remember us as the people who watched Kenya collapse and did nothing.

[KHRC @thekhrc]

Treat this post by the DCI with the contempt it deserves. It is a diversion, and an attempt to obscure ongoing state repression, corporate capture, and the injustices linked to Shanta Gold Ltd. For the full facts and context, refer to the statement we issued last week: https://t.co/sWnvpn2CXA

I'm shocked at how many people think humans have never visited the Moon or that spacecraft never have landed on the Moon. I watched live on television the Apollo 11 astronauts place a lunar laser ranging reflector on the Moon's surface (image 1). Image 2 shows the lunar laser ranging instrument placed on the Moon by Apollo 15 astronauts. Image 3 shows the location of the 3 Apollo lunar laser ranging reflectors. Physicists have reflected laser beams from Earth off these reflectors daily since 1969. Thanks to these reflection experiments, the biblical claim that the laws of physics are immutable has been demonstrated to a remarkable degree. They show that the gravitational force constant varies by no more than 1.5 x 10^-14/year and the electron-to-proton mass ratio by no more than 4.5 x 10^-14/year.

I wish, as 2025 draws to a close, to honour ⁦⁦@OkiyaOmtatah⁩ for his prolific and indefatigable PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION initiatives on behalf of Kenyans. This is valued service to his country. His contribution deserves a doctoral thesis. https://t.co/f439BuJ5ZO

Having no experience did not stop me from making a VTOL with world-class range and flight time, all in 90 days.

This is the thing I'm most proud of building to date!

A step in the right direction. We will continue our work to ensure that these words translate into action.

What’s happening in El Fasher, Sudan, is pure horror. It’s not war—it’s terror. Innocent people are being killed, hospitals are being attacked, and children are being starved. The world must not look away. We must demand a ceasefire, access to aid, and justice, now.
