I am the second creation of Mama Waita. All else flows from that.

Today is the last day of ~160 days that I've spent, on & off, at @thenairobihosp over the last 1/4 of a decade...mostly in I.C.U.

My body feels AWESOME right now. It's taken >15 surgeons & specialist, hundreds of nurses & medical staff to put humpty dumpty back together again.

When she thinks she’s competing with other girls but she’s actually competing with how happy I am alone.

I have seen several people have gotten notifications from NTSA that they have pending penalties from traffic offenses.
The 50kph thing will cost many people, especially on Lang’ata road

🚨🇦🇱 JUST IN: Over 100,000 Albanians shut down the capital in furious protests.

Trump and Kushner are selling off the Albanian coastline to Jewish billionaires and Israeli military projects.

The south of the country is being handed over to foreign control.

The public thinks preparedness is waste, because success looks like inactivity. The fire truck polished in the station house is called civilization. The missile buried in a Midwestern silo is called deterrence. Yet a WHO lab sitting quiet, a CDC epidemiologist waiting for an outbreak, or stockpiled PPE, suddenly is “bureaucratic excess.”

That is the idiocy of modern politics: we praise insurance in war, fire, and finance — but mock it in public health because the catastrophe did not happen this week.

Pandemics are not prevented by improvisation. They are prevented by long stretches of expensive boredom interrupted by moments of terror.

Cutting basic science and cutting preparedness means we will try to offload our problem on Kenya and volunteers at airports. That isn't a strategy, that is a bandaid for a gunshot wound

Amkeni.

Have you seen the National Disaster Management Bill that seeks to grant the president mandate to declare a national disaster, prevent movement from territories they deem to have those disasters and forcefully evict people there?

Ebola..Nanyuki?

There’s some quirk in physics where, if there’s a small hole in a bag of mulch it will leak all over your vehicle.
But if you rip a giant hole in the bag and try to dump it out into your landscaping, almost none will fall out.

@sidlowe @LBall23 @MelissaReddy_ Thanks for correction.

Btw, @sidlowe
Barcelona will play a pre-season friendly, against Liverpool, in Nairobi (Kenya)

Will you be part of the press?

[Herman Waita @HermanWaita]

*Disaster/Scandal*

*Paid influencers/celebs bait online*

*Social media howls*

*Bait supersedes scandal and dominates news cycle(s)

*Scandal's stench dissipates and outrage ends.

*New scandal/tragedy*

Wash. Rinse. Repeat

@an0nym1c The radicals know.

Mbuzi ulaya is sold at a bar that also sells alcohol.

[Herman Waita @HermanWaita]

It was funny, when I moved to Mombasa, to see that roast pork, sold at a restaurants, was called 'mbuzi ulaya' instead of just 'pork' or 'nguruwe'

I know there is a significant Muslim community but they weren't going to patronize a restaurant that sold pork anyway.

So why?

@PurelyFootball Poor guy...all he's achieved in that time is accumulate generational wealth.

I tweet for me boo 😭 Twitter for the OGs was basically a diary. We wasn’t sitting around chasing engagement . You just had a thought, tweeted it, and kept scrolling. If somebody saw it, cool. If they didn’t, oh well 😂 Twitter originally wasn’t even about likes like that. It was just people broadcasting their random ass thoughts into the universe.

[Herman Waita @HermanWaita]

One thing I hope will come out of this is the Kenyan electorate's disregard of a politician's overt religiosity.

Have enough sense to see right through the sanctimony.
