I honestly don’t think we’re ready for this Eastleigh conversation.
Few Observations,.
You buy something in the majority of those shops and they want cash. If you don’t have cash, they have their own MPesa agents they tell you to withdraw from. They then make a quick call to the agent to confirm the withdrawal before releasing your goods.
That way, they never have to explain their cash flow, but you may one day have to explain yours to the taxman.
We’re talking about a multi billion shilling industry with very little transparency, accountability or visibility into how money moves.
And as long as they remain the middlemen, pay zero tax, sell “counterfeit goods” the government is comfortable
But how dare you use the same business model, open your own wholesale operation and bring your own goods through the port?…..
@citizentvkenya We do respect what we read about what Raila did. However, people should move on. Let's keep this "Raila this, Raila that" bullshit out of financial matters. We appreciate what is claimed he did, but it's time we moved on.
@citizentvkenya The name of Raila shouldn't be a frequent mention in everything ODM members do. Let his soul rest in peace and show the true legacy he left behind in your works that would be a good show 2 the nation, but mentioning the late will never help. Fanya kazi wachana na walio kwenda zao
Raila is gone and he cannot hear, he cannot speak, and he cannot come back to babysit anyone’s politics.
The political babies who were spoon-fed by him, who suckled from his name, his networks, his courage and his sacrifices, must now grow up and chart their own way.
Let the dead be dead, and let the living do living things.
This habit of telling Kenyans, “Raila said this before he died” or “Raila wanted this” is useless political witchcraft. If you are alive, speak for yourself and If you want power, fight for it.
In African tradition, a child who refuses to stop breastfeeding long after the mother is gone becomes a village embarrassment.
Raila’s grave should not become a political kitchen where lazy leaders go to warm yesterday’s food.
Let the living chart their way and let the dead rest.
DECISIONS amongst them to 'gift' sh12/litre to PRIVATE companies causing the PUNITIVE fuel costs while cartels rake SUPER profits must be reversed ASAP and all CORRUPT public officials involved/benefiting PROSECUTED.Price controls must be REMOVED for COMPETITION to lower prices.
@SingoeiAKorir You should be talking to Angola, Nigeria, south Africa &south Sudan, get crude oil from African soil and refine it here and sell it to them instead of putting your nose in a war that has nothing to do with Africa! This is the time Africa should be making money not problems!
Regarding your Luo friend’s take on “working twice as hard” to match the Mlima level — fair question, but the real difference isn’t some invisible 50% head start. Mlima’s actual “trick” is brutally simple: 'delayed gratification on steroids'.
A single shilling you save and invest aggressively while you’re young compounds at roughly 25× every 10 years in the kind of high-return vehicles many in Central Kenya have mastered (land, chamas, small businesses, and smart equity plays).
- Hit KSh 100k investable capital by 25?
- With ruthless discipline, it becomes KSh 2.5 million by 35.
- Keep the pedal down and it hits KSh 62.5 million by 45.
That math is real. But the lifestyle required to pull it off is not glamorous. It means living *way* below your income bracket for decades — driving an old car while your peers flex, renting modest while others buy flashy plots, skipping the endless rounds and trips — so the bulk of your capital stays in the game. That level of self-denial and consistency is rare anywhere, not just in Kenya.
And even with the discipline dialed in, success still needs three more ingredients:
1. Luck (good health, no major family emergencies, right timing on the economy).
2. Networks — the chamas, the WhatsApp investment groups, the “I know a guy” connections that open doors fast.
3. The right partner. Marry (or partner with) someone who buys into the long game instead of someone who wants to spend every extra shilling today, and you literally double your firepower.
So yes, some structural advantages exist around Mt Kenya — proximity to Nairobi, cash-crop history, land that has appreciated for generations. But the real multiplier isn’t geography. It’s the cultural muscle memory of 'save first, compound relentlessly, live lean.
That’s not tribal magic. It’s just compound interest wearing a kanzu of sacrifice. Respect to anyone, from any region, who’s willing to pay that price.
A Luo friend recently bought land in Nanyuki, where he plans to raise his family.He believes that Mlima people have a 50% head start in life compared to those from Western Kenya. In his view, he has worked twice as hard as his Mlima friends just to reach the same level of success
Between the boomers and millennials, there is a generation that is the cause of our problems.
Gen X.
Born between 1965 and 1980.
They are the parents of ZILLENIALS and Gen Z.
These are the people addicted to evangelical churches, classic FM and Facebook.
They still read newspapers and tune in to the BBC at 6PM.
They are rabidly tribal, worship permanent job employment, and so they forge academic and professional documents to ascend lucrative job groups.
They don't want to retire; they are career employees.
They are the most toxic managers at work with outdated ideas.
Their leadership style is holding daily office meetings, and since someone taught them about Zoom, they also hold virtual meetings even on holidays.
These meetings amount to nothing but them reminding employees about appraisal forms and reporting time.
They are extremely corrupt.
They bribe their way through opportunities. They dislike meritocracy and openly hate people who qualify through hard work and merit.
They sell ancestral land to disinherit their children yet their fathers bequeathed them free land.
At home, if it is a man, his wife has conquered him. She runs the house, and he is so scared to confront her.
If it is a woman, she is endlessly angry, chaotic and choleric, but so holier than thou on Sunday in church.
They teach their children bad manners because they want them to become rich overnight.
The Gen X are the root cause of our political, economic, and social collapse.
This is the "hear nothing, see nothing, do nothing" generation.
Docile generation!
Meet the son of Adonija Gabriel Oguda, a fully grown intellectual who looked in the mirror, nodded respectfully, then decided lemme behave like Sudi. Oguda is currently a soloist in the Kumi Bila Break choir,, singing louder like rent is due and the landlord has already removed the door.
Before he graduated into this nonstop praise & worship ministry, the man was Head of Logistics in Ugunja,, calculating alcohol bills with the seriousness of a lady shaving her office, buying Panadol & condoms for munene, securing coffee supplies, and most importantly, ensuring Opiyo Wandayi never slept alone in hotel rooms.
He was supplying him with yellow yellow damsels & when the budget was tighter, walimwengu said he had to be the damsel. This is the same man who stammers like a Hyundai engine trying to start on a cold morning in Kericho.
When he wasn’t in the office, he was at home babysitting his grandmother’s cat Medusa, a cat that probably had more consistency in life decisions than him. At some point, Oguda even had a dream. He wanted to open a guava juice processing plant in Kolenyo.
But somewhere along the way, the guavas got replaced with Kasongo syrup. Back in the day, Oguda used to wake up early, stretch, yawn, and then PUTS STONE properly on William Ruto & his wife like it was a morning devotion. But then,, hunger my pipoos, Hunger!! Njaa ni kitu mbaya saidii.
Lemme tell you Omwami,, hunger is a very persuasive motivational speaker. The moment the government doors opened after killing the Gen Zs, Oguda’s memory did what Safaricom bundles do,, expired instantly. The same man he was side-eyeing like a suspicious landlord suddenly became the best thing to ever happen to Kenya.
Character development came faster like a man who has just climbed a massive sianda with an indomie foundation. Today, Oguda has evolved into a full-time praise & worship technician. He has become delulu like a broke lady refreshing Jimmy Wanjigi’s son’s Instagram hoping for a miracle DM.
He wakes up every morning to praise Kasongo for rescuing him from poverty. Anyway, a man must survive, but at what cost? Take this to the bank,,, son of Kamagut will have our boy remove balloons from his nose sooner or later. Chesaa! May Yehova Wanyonyi remember the poor son of Adonija. Sisi kama walala hoii hatuna maoni, Letu Jicho tu.👀
Lol. So this is about your stupid little ego chamber. Needing a sense of belonging.. The bike conversation belongs to anyone who uses or shares the road or anyone who doesn't want more funerals. Fool. You can't scream "cars kill us!" and then turn around and say "but don't talk about it unless you're on two wheels. Here is was thinking yiu could engage in convos. Bet your kid is in CBE or whatever.. lol
The Cartel Behind Kenya’s Speed Cameras: How Pesa Print’s KSh42 Billion NTSA Deal Links Back to State House
It is alleged that the Sh42 billion speed camera project rolled out by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) may be linked to a politically connected network.
The system, activated on March 9, 2026, is believed to involve a 21-year Public Private Partnership between NTSA, KCB Bank Kenya and Pesa Print Limited to install 1,000 speed cameras nationwide.
Investigative revelations suggest the lucrative contract was awarded through direct procurement, raising questions about transparency. Pesa Print, the company at the center of the deal, had previously faced scrutiny over delays in the smart driving licence project despite billions already spent.
Records allegedly show that investors Faryd Abdulrazak Sheikh and Jabir Abdul Nassir Abdalla Al-Kindy acquired a major stake in Pesa Print around the same period the project was gaining approval. It is believed that the businessmen have social and business links to individuals close to State House.
Another shareholder, Charles Tela Alusala, is reportedly connected to business entities associated with the First Family, further fueling speculation about how the deal was structured.
