There's a very expensive flower that grows naturally in the 400 acre Mbololo Forest in Taita Taveta County.

The African Violet.

This is a 50 million dollar industry annually, that benefits foreigners while the people of Taita languish in abject poverty.

Locals aren't allowed to farm it.

The forest is under the custody of the Kenyatta family.

Again, it just also happens to be endowed with;
Rubies
Tsavorites
Red/blue/green garnets
Aquamarine
Beryll
Corrondum
Quartz.

Wake up.

I don’t think many Kenyans have fully realized it yet, but we are living through one of the darkest periods in our nation's history. A time that arguably rivals only the British colonial era.

How can a poor third work country called Kenya spend Kshs 1.1 trillion in just 9 months on tea, mandasi, samosa, workshop/seminars in Mombasa and air tickets?

African leaders ignored this man and now we will have to live a lifetime of unemployment, diseases and economic depression 😧😑

Unafanya biashara and pay the required corporate tax.
Alafu una lipa dividends to the owners of capital
KRA inaona bado umebakisha pesa

Chronological age = time lived.

IQ = processing ceiling.

Suffering = forced contact with reality.

Integration = conversion of experience into consciousness.

Maturity = consciousness stabilised into moral seriousness, good judgment and self-command.

One day someone will write the history of Kenya and say, here lie the ruins of a nation destroyed by greed.

Is this the plan?
1. Kill agriculture
2. Kill the informal economy
3. Kill SMEs
4. Defund education and health
5. Kill the people
6. Share land and loot with foreign corporates.

Jim Simons once said:

“If you’re going to trade with models, you follow the models completely. No emotions. No second-guessing. No ego.”

That single lesson from his MIT talk completely changed how I approach trading.

Bookmark it.
Re watch it.
Study it.

I'm really starting to feel like we're living in a psychological experiment designed to study how far a dystopian society can be pushed before the working class begins reacting violently.

You reduce crime by eliminating poverty. You reduce crime with universal healthcare, public housing, livable wages, and free college. You reduce violence by creating happy, healthy communities that aren’t constantly fighting over basic needs and material resources.

If Sifuna can be denied a chance to go to radio jambo, then every political news coming from that company should be treated as state propaganda
