“If you take those 10 counties of Mt. Kenya, their combined economy is now approaching $30 billion. In comparison, Rwanda is about $14.5 Billion. Botswana is about $22 Billion Dollars. Mauritious is about $16 Billion” - KRA Chairman Ndirirtu Muriithi

[Essie @EcEssie]

A Kenyan doctor moved to the U.S. and couldn't find a job at a hospital.

So he opened a small clinic and put up a bold sign that read:

“Cure for any disease for $20 — If you’re not cured, get $100 back!”

One day, a clever American lawyer saw the sign. “This looks like a scam,” he thought, “but maybe I can make a quick $100!” He walked in, feeling confident.

Lawyer: “Doctor, I’ve lost my sense of taste.”

Doctor: “Nurse, Box 22 — three drops in his mouth.”

Lawyer: “Ugh! That’s kerosene!”

Doctor: “Perfect! Your taste is back. That’ll be $20.”

A few days later, the lawyer came back.

Lawyer: “Doctor, I’ve lost my memory. I can’t remember anything.”

Doctor: “Nurse, Box 22 — three drops.”

Lawyer: “Wait! That’s kerosene again!”

Doctor: “Wonderful! Your memory is restored. That’s $20.”

Still determined, the lawyer tried one last time.

Lawyer: “Doctor, my eyesight is failing. I can’t see a thing!”

Doctor: “Ah, sorry — no cure for that. Here’s your $100.”

The doctor handed him… $20.

Lawyer (squinting): “Hey, wait a minute — this is only $20!”

Doctor: “Fantastic! Your eyesight is back. That’ll be $20.”

Kenya successfully raises USD 1.5 billion (Sh193.8 billion) at lower cost from international markets to pay off part of the 2028 Eurobond ahead of schedule. This prudent move eases pressure on taxpayers, boosts investor confidence, and creates fiscal space to fund key development priorities such as roads, health, and education.

@SafaricomPLC If you're traveling to a neighboring country, please have an Airtel sim card. I regret not having one. Being loyal to safcom is proofed to be a very costly affair this afternoon. I haven't been able to use my safaricom number since I crossed to Uganda. I can't roam, why??

[Muthoni Njakwe @muthoni_njakwe]

When Satan tempted Jesus, He could have asserted His divine identity by saying, “Don’t you know I am the Son of God?”
But He didn’t.
Instead, He responded with the words, “It is written.”

In that moment, He was teaching us something powerful:
Our authority doesn’t come from titles, emotions, or spiritual experiences — it comes from the Word of God.

The Word is our reference point, our weapon, and our anchor.
If Jesus, the Son of God, used scripture to confront the enemy, how much more should we?

Let the Word dwell in us richly.
Because when life presses us, what’s written should be what comes out.

Every time you are confronted with fear, tell Satan:
“It is written — God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7)

When you feel weak, declare:
“It is written — I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

When the enemy tries to condemn you, stand firm and say:
“It is written — there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1)

When lack surrounds you, speak with confidence:
“It is written — the Lord is my Shepherd; I lack nothing.” (Psalm 23:1)

There is serious problem within Kenya's business community.

Everyone is just starting businesses that they see others doing.

There is no effort to innovate.

Nd their only strategy is market penetration pricing.

This is destroying whole markets and sectors!

DO NOT FORGET GOD WHEN YOU GET WHAT YOU PRAYED FOR!!!!!!!

[Hon.Moses Kuria,HSC @HonMoses_Kuria]

Sometimes I wonder whether people who want to be President of Kenya know what they would be getting into. Looking closely at Budget Estimates 2025-2026, picture this
1. Ksh 1.3 Trillion out of Ksh 4.2 Trillion will go to payment and servicing of debts as well as pensions. This is not negotiable and we can never default on that. The price to pay for our thoughtless expansionism in the past
2. Another Ksh 1.7 Trillion will go to finance RECURRENT Expenditure of the National Government . Of which Ksh 680 Billion is salaries for our bloated and inefficient civil service which you can not reform because JOBLESS Kenyans will go to the streets to defend the civil servants who contine to eat everything at the expense of the rest of Kenyans
3. Still on the National Government Recurrent Expenditure, we are officially a Communist Country. Karl Marx is very proud of us. Free Education, Pesa ya Wazee, Fertilisers, Health etc at a cost of Ksh 700 Billion. Ebu jaribu kugusa any of that . Ot to stop the Ksh 400 Billion that is transferred to useless and inefficient parastatals that you can not sell because courts will grant injunctions as freely as sweets in a Chrismas party.
4. And Counties are waiting. Ksh 405 Billion in equitable sharing , Ksh 59 Billion in Equalisation Fund and Ksh 10 Billion in Conditional Grants totalling to Ksh 471 Billion. Try negotiate that or question how that huge amount is spent and you are an enemy of devolution.
5. At the end of the day the only amount you can discretionary allocate for development is a paltry Ksh 291 Billion or 6.9% of the 4.2 Trillion. 93.1% you have no say.
Wishing all the best to all our beloved Presidential Candidates

Office rent is overdue by 3 months.

House rent is overdue by 6 months.

Office landlord has sent auctioneers. You have 14 days to go.

You did work for your county government and they owe you 45M that is over due by 3 years.

Your bank's loan is over due by 3 years. The loan you took to deliver on the job. The bank is auctioning your father in laws house you used as collateral for the loan.

You have no more friends because you have borrowed from them all and now they have cut you off.

Your wife left you 7 months ago. She left with the kids and you haven't seen or spoken to them since.

Your siblings no longer speak with you because since you stopped sending them money.

Your mum us sick and admitted in the local government hospital and she has been there for 3 months and no proper treatment.

This is the story of many people who did work for the National government or the county governments. This is the story of many entrepreneurs who dared to dream.

Life is very hard. Be kind to people you meet.

This is where mistakes happen.
When applying adhesives, new mechanics may tend to overdo it .
The overdone adhesives then falls into the coolant system causing blockage.
That’s why we closely monitor new mechanics to make sure we never compromise on Quality of the work done
