Why do some of you insist on gatekeeping information that directly impacts our decision making? If you have something to say, say it plainly.

Vague hints and political games serve no one.

16 kids are dead because we cannot handle a fire around a military based camp but we want to handle Ebola???? A whole pandemic??? And y'all still giving that man a platform??? Maybe we actually deserve what we're going through! This country is sickening man!💔

[Shaquille Oatmeal @Nyamburah_]

Bruh! 16 children are dead in a school fire. We are opening borders up to terrorism & Ebola. Dawa zimelala KEMSA expired. Children & women are dying everyday. Fuel prices, proposed finance bill, murder in police cells, looting, education ruined, unemployment, pia wewe hutajam?

My fave Kenyanism word: Rada? Depending on the context it could mean WTF? It could mean “seriously?”. It could mean “what’s up?”. It could mean “the hell’s wrong with you?” And you can understand it by the tone someone uses when saying it, and I find it so beautiful.

I believe one of the purest forms of healing is falling back in love with your hobbies.

One of the greatest tragedies to befall Kenya is if Ruto is re-elected.

Register to vote so together we can send this regime to Kamiti #TukoKadi

Let me tell you how the IMF works in Africa.

They give you a loan. Attach conditions.

The conditions make you poorer. You need another loan. Repeat forever.

That’s not aid. That’s architecture

One of my favorite things about traveling is that it breaks the illusion that your current life is the only possible one.

God, I love Substack. The writers are writing. The thinkers are thinking. The yearners are yearning. The teachers are teaching! A whole lot of intellectual hope in an era that threatens critical thought.
