Meet Purity Wafula, the walking security system from the village who left KCSE 2014 ranking boards shaking.
Huyu si normal. Alikuwa top performer 2014, akasema "bye bye classroom" then akaenda Israel straight for specialised training. Alirudi na PhD in Military Science kama ni degree ya kawaida. Sasa anafanya kazi as a highly trained Close Protection Officer (CPO) — the real ones, not those ones who stand next to politicians holding umbrellas.
Reports zinasema Africa nzima kuna watu 14 tu at her level: 11 men and only 3 women. Hawa ndio wanapelekwa kulinda presidents, FIFA president, na senior UN officials. Ukiona mtu anatembea na security heavy heavy, kuna chance Purity iko somewhere in that convoy.
Saa yake? Hourly allowance inasemekana iko between KSh 300,000 and 450,000. Yes, you read that right. One hour. Watu wengine wanataka hiyo amount kwa mwezi full.
Na the part that finishes people: it is claimed she can comfortably handle 28,000 men and 52,000 women in combat. Just her. Alone. No backup. “Comfortably.” Like she’s going for a light gym session.

Days of exams based on recalling, reciting and repeating what you were taught are gone. Days of awarding scores of “A” to people based on “recalling” are almost gone. AI has reduced recalling to “seconds”.

Update: Now your form your good questions and give answers.

This is now closer to real life situations.

Africa’s unique problems need African ingenuity. Yet our governments kill local talent by denying it opportunities while paying foreigners to solve the same problems. It’s time to fund our innovators, buy their solutions, and give them a chance.

[Donald B Kipkorir @DonaldBKipkorir]

Everywhere in the world, elections are about building tribal coalitions. Every person who has aspired to national leadership whether in Kenya, US, Israel or South Africa builds tribal coalitions. First, leaders consolidate their own tribes then look to other tribes. To criticize Rigathi Gachagua for consolidating Kikuyu Nation is to engage in deceptive falsehoods & hypocrisy. Show me one Kenyan leader who isn’t consolidating his tribe first. It can’t be tribalism when Kikuyu is mobilized but not when Kalenjin, Luo, Luhya, Kisii & Kamba are! Tribes are what make nations. Without tribes, nations cannot exist. What is wrong is negative tribalism that dehumanizes other tribes. But consolidating tribes doesn’t violate the law.

Appointing Howe wouldn't mean lowering our standards. Our standards have already been on the floor for years.

We need to accept the state of this club before dismissing managers who could actually improve us. We're fighting for stability, not trying to win a tactical philosophy contest.

Bring in a manager who can organise this defence, make us competitive and build something sustainable. We can worry about the rest once we have a proper foundation.

1. Interns wa engineering school are paid peanuts 25k

2. Graduate Engineers are not absorbed yet Kenya is literally a construction site___! These can absorb so many mechanical, electrical and civil engineers plus technicians across all disciplines on structured contract employment terms

3. Consulting engineering firms are not bagging government jobs (undocumented residents have taken over). The few firms with paltry jobs pia wanadai serikali.

Sasa mnataka aje?

[Teslaconomics @Teslaconomics]

The new Tesla Roadster literally sucks itself to the road.

Tesla says fans underneath the car pulls air out from beneath it, creating a low-pressure area that holds it against the surface with the system generating up to 2 g’s of suction, enough to hold the car upside down.

That same system presses the tires harder against the road, giving them more grip for acceleration, braking, and cornering. Unlike conventional aero, which relies on speed to build downforce, the fans can create that extra grip even at low speeds.

Bro… that means cornering beyond 2 g’s… The Roadster can adjusts its aero as its speed changes, with a variable-pitch rear wing and both high-downforce and low-drag modes.

Elon described the feeling, “You can corner like it looks like you’re breaking physics bc the car sticks to the ground so hard… This car could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch.”

And this is just the system that keeps it ON the road. Add the SpaceX thrusters, and you start to understand why the 0–60 number was never going to tell the whole story.

Tesla and SpaceX are truly pushing what we thought a car could do…

**50yrs of China - longterm strategy**

CHINA
“The year is 1975.”
> You have 924 million people.
> Your entire economy is worth $164 billion.
> Barely $180 of GDP per person.
> More than 80% of your people live in villages.
> Life expectancy is just 61 years.
> Millions struggle to afford basic necessities.
> Much of the countryside lacks reliable electricity.
> You don't even have a modern expressway network.
> You have a problem.
> Nearly a billion people need a better life.

“1978 arrives.”
> Start reforming agriculture.
> Let farming families keep more of what they produce.
> Productivity improves.
> Open your doors to foreign investment.
> Turn a small border town called Shenzhen into an economic experiment.
> Start making clothes, shoes, toys and cheap household goods.
> Foreign companies bring orders, machinery and expertise.
> Millions begin leaving farms for factory jobs.
> Your economy crosses $300 billion in 1985.
> Growth reaches 15% in a single year.

“Strength, Weakness & Opportunities; followed by serious Execution”
There's another problem.
> Factories need electricity.
> Build coal mines and power stations.
> They need steel, cement and machinery.
> Start producing those too.
> Goods need to reach the rest of the world.
> Build ports, roads and container terminals.
> In 1988, you have just 147 km of expressways.
> By 2000, you have over 11,000 km.
> Join the World Trade Organization in 2001.
> Export orders pour in.
> Your economy crosses $2 trillion in 2005.

But assembling cheap products can only take you so far.
> Start manufacturing more components yourself.
> Move into electronics, automobiles and industrial machinery.
> Learn to make the equipment that makes other equipment.
> Keep the clothing factories running anyway.
> Keep the toy factories too.
> Why abandon industries you already know how to run?

> Your economy crosses $6 trillion in 2010.
> Become the world's largest manufacturing economy.
> Open your first modern dedicated high-speed railway in 2008.
> Then build another line.
> And another.
> Your cities keep growing.
> So do your electricity needs.
> Expand steelworks, power grids, highways and entire industrial districts.
> Move into batteries, solar panels, electric vehicles and advanced materials.
> Your industrial system now stretches from raw-material refining to finished products.

“The year is 2025.”
> Your population is 1.4 billion.
> Your economy is worth roughly $19.5 trillion.
> GDP per person has climbed to nearly $13,900.
> Life expectancy has reached around 78 years.
> Nearly 68% of your people now live in cities.
> You have almost 200,000 km of expressways.
> More than 50,000 km of high-speed railway.
> Your railways carry roughly 12.6 million passenger journeys a day.
> You produce more than half the world's steel.
> Build more than half its commercial ships.
> Manufacture nearly three-quarters of its electric cars.
> And remain a major producer of the clothes and toys you started exporting decades ago.
————————————————————
Remember 1975?
> Your entire economy was worth $164 billion.
> In 2024 alone, you invested $7.4 trillion in new fixed assets.
> Around 45 times your entire economy of fifty years earlier.
> Nothing about this happened by accident.

This is China, a civilizational nation that locked the F in for fifty years.

And the results speak for themselves.

🗣️🚨🚨فابيان هورزلر مدرب برايتون يشرح فلسفته الصارمة وكيف يتعامل مع كسل اللاعبين:

"لدينا خطوط حمراء وثوابت لا تنازل عنها أبدًا.. عند فقدان الكرة، يجب استرجاعها خلال 5 ثوانٍ، ويجب على الجميع الركض بأقصى سرعة للخلف!

"إذا لم يقم أحد اللاعبين بذلك أ��ناء التدريب، أوقف المران وأجبر الفريق بالكامل على الركض عقابًا على ذلك.. وفي اليوم التالي نعرض اللقطة في اجتماع الفيديو أمام الجميع.. لا يوجد لاعب يرغب بأن يُحرج أمام زملائه لأنه لم يركض." 🥶🔥

[Kata @utdshows]

🚨🎙️ Ian Wright on Manchester United under Rúben Amorim and Michael Carrick:

🗣️ “What I’ve noticed about this United team under Michael Carrick is that the intensity, the pressing, the hunger, the fight and the discipline that Amorim brought back into the team seem to be fading.

It started with the players fighting for every ball, running for each other and playing with real intensity. Now, some of that has disappeared, and they’re starting to look like the old United again.

And it makes you wonder…

Was what we saw under Carrick actually the result of a new manager, or was he simply benefiting from the foundation Amorim had already built into these players before he was sacked?” 👀
