While you’re busy celebrating roads outside your docket, armed goons are robbing Kenyans at gunpoint. Chaiwali on General Mathenge Road tonight. Your ministry’s report card is written by the safety of Kenyans not by road projects. Armed robbers struck hotels and roads on a broad day light. Maybe secure lives before chasing credit.@NPSOfficial_KE @DCI_Kenya @C_NyaKundiH @NelsonHavi @omwambaKE

When I watched the Ecuador coach celebrate so passionately after his team's victory over Germany yesterday, I was reminded of a profound truth often associated with Napoleon Hill:

"The most powerful mastermind alliance a man will ever form is in his marriage. A woman, rightly chosen, aligned in vision, and honored in spirit, can make a man unbreakable. But a woman wrongly chosen or unaligned in purpose will drain him of vision, strip him of confidence, and sentence him to spiritual poverty.

Many men fall not because of failure in business, but because of conflict in the home. They rise with vision only to have it mocked. They speak with clarity only to have it questioned. They act with courage only to be met with resistance. This is not partnership. This is war. And a man at war with his household cannot build peace outside of it.

But when a woman supports a man's purpose, when she believes in his destiny, when she reflects his greatness before the world sees it, that woman becomes the mastermind in motion. Her energy fuels him. Her intuition sharpens him. Her peace steadies him. Her presence becomes a sanctuary. And the man with that kind of partner is dangerous to every limitation.

You must choose this alliance with wisdom. And if you are already in one, you must train it, not ignore it. Share your aim. Speak your plan. Invite her insight. Draw strength from her spirit. This is not weakness. This is wisdom. This is law."

Julians should one day make CS Treasury. Dude's understanding and articulation of policy, and their effects, intended or unforeseen, is top top. And he does it with such great demeanor. Ditto his writing.

Colon (:) introduces something. You usually use it when what comes after is a list, or an explanation, or even a reveal.
An example is “she had one rule: never apologize” or “this is a list of things you should get from the market: eggs, tomatoes…”
It’s also used as the eyes in a smiley face :)

Semicolon (;) connects two complete thoughts that are related but could stand alone as separate sentences. It’s stronger than a comma but softer than a full stop.
An example is “Frank never apologized; he didn't think he was wrong”

It’s also used as the eyes in a winking face ;)

Stock market needs patience. If you see -10% over the last one month, check where it was 6 months ago..or 1 year ago. ( Especially if the company's fundamentals are unchanged )

A PhD is the highest academic qualification you can ever get. There is nothing above it. It is earned from writing and defending a thesis that makes a novel contribution to an academic field. A holder can use it for life because it is not tied to any academic institution. It is a portable award.

A professorship is a rank. A title for being an active teacher and researcher. In the US, any teacher in higher education can be called a professor. It is merely a descriptive term. But there is Chair Professorship that denotes an official academic rank for senior academics who rose to the top. They often go through Assistant Professorship and Associate Professorship ranks for many years. These rank holders have held multiple research grants, are running research labs, have diverse academic affiliations with other institutions and the industry, shape opinion in the field through constant research publications, and contribute to active teaching.

But a professorship is not a lifetime title. When people retire, they become former professors. Those who maintain some level of teaching and research engagement in retirement become Professor Emeritus/Emerita. It is just like being a Senior Engineer, or Managing Director. You can't retire and be calling yourself an MD, GM, or Director. You drop it when you retire or move elsewhere.

Nigerians worship titles even if they are acquired fraudulently. It is a political hook to use in fishing for political appointments and unnecessary respect from people who think the holder is operating at the top of knowledge hierarchy. Some of them are extremely good and their records remain respectable. Many of them are fishermen, fishing for opportunities that cannot be squared with their claimed academic experience.

I know real professors and I will accord them the full recognition that they deserve even after retirement. That respect will continue especially when they don't shove it in our faces. I personally do not want to be a professor because the value of that prestigious title has been eroded in Nigeria.

Oh lord🤦🏿‍♂️

In the context of the original post, the grass is always not greener on the other side because she posting about monetary issues eg being spent on, spoiled, soft life & etc

Older and influential women on this app need to stop spreading lies to younger ladies. If we stay sober and look at the current Kenyan economy, there aren’t a lot of guys that can provide the lifestyle she was describing. But you all are there singing the chorus and supporting the post.

From KNBS, slightly less than 400K Kenyans make over 100K/month in formal employment. Let’s be generous and say there are another 600K in informal business making that amount of money. That means about 1M or 2% of the entire population makes over 100K/year. Go ahead and take away women (~33%) and you are left with ~660K men. Take away married men, gay, those that don’t want to get married & etc : the pie keeps shrinking.

But you are busy telling women there is better out there.

Why aren’t you advising women to look for and accept a kind, hardworking, mature and loving man? They might not spoil you or pamper you or give you the “soft life” but they are genuinely good men.

I’m not saying it’s impossible to find these “unicorn” men but it’s not the norm. And I’m glad you said based on YOUR experience you’ve bagged one unicorn - Good for you! But what I’m telling you is that you are the exception, not the rule.

What surprises me is that in a country with nominal GDP per capita of $2700 (KSH 28.8K/month), women are advising other women to chose partners primarily based on monetary ability, but not personality🤷🏾‍♂️

For any lady reading this, please always choose a kind, reliable, supportive, and emotional intelligent man above all. If he comes with money, that’s a nice bonus!
