@dnahinga From the Maasai Mara exposรฉ to seeing how some VCs and TVET principals live, there's a lot of corruption and wastage for sure. But despite those, there's also a point to be made about the inadequate funding in universities. You need massive resources to build good facilities.
@mytradesignals Sometimes the only thing that keeps you invested in some counters on the NSE is being born Kenyan ๐ . Ile risk profile some of these companies have especially around political interference make long term investing very difficult.
@Ohta_Ryota Each new solution will only move the traffic jam from 1 point to the next choke point, right now to the Impala round about, then prestige, then ring road, then city mortuary. Long term, we need light rail & BRT. Otherwise, they'll need to elevate a road all the way to 4th ngong.
If we depend solely on mainstream media to tell us what matters, we will remain perpetually distracted while the country is picked clean. Just like the current โbeefโ btwn WSR and Gideon.
We must be intentional & support independent alternative media, and keep our eyes firmly on the ball. Let them chase their clicks. We will continue to chase justice and accountability in the corridors of the courts and on the streets. Sauti ya mwananchi haitazimwa. Viva โ๐พ
I pity folks who still have faith in this guy. 4 years on and speaks like he just got elected yesterday. To be fair, he knows the electorate enjoy being lied to so there's that too ๐คฆ
โI have made up my mind that we are going to change this country. What the hell are we doing in the Third World when countries like Singapore, South Korea and Malaysia are in the First World?โ President Ruto
Donโt elect people who fundamentally donโt like you. It permeates everything and cascades all the way down. You can survive a lot of things, but hard to escape a government that thinks you are dispensable.
Thatโs why police can tell grieving and anxious parents to relax.
Another fire in a school that causes deaths again ๐ญ. Has the ministry of education really learnt from the lessons from past school fires? We had said 'never again' to this type of tragedy after Hillside Endarasha. This history cannot keep repeating.
When you hear politicians suddenly uniting to tell you who the โenemyโ is, pause and ask yourself one question:
Who benefits when citizens are divided and distracted?
Too often, the political class closes ranks not to defend the people, but to defend the system that feeds them. They want Kenyans fighting each other while corruption, impunity, unemployment, and economic injustice continue unchecked.
The moment someone begins questioning the structure of exploitation, the wardens of the prison quickly unite and point at a new โenemyโ to keep the prisoners distracted.
Kenyans must stop worshipping political camps and start defending principles. Accountability is not tribal. Justice is not regional. Truth is not partisan.
The real struggle is not between ordinary citizens. The real struggle is between a corrupt system and the people paying the price for it every day.
The older I get, the more I believe happiness lives in the ordinary. Pets. Plants. A quiet morning coffee. Blue sky. Cotton clouds. Birds singing. The gentle breeze through the trees. A clean, cosy house. Good food. Good hearted simple poeple. So much of lifeโs beauty is quiet, gentle, and already here. And somehow, one of the sweetest feelings is knowing I get to wake up and meet it all again tomorrow.
Turns out, buying what you understand can be very solid advice. Three stocks come to mind for me, $GEV, $ASTS and $RKLB. Got in about 18 months ago because the engineer in me appreciated the engineering side of these businesses. It has been rewarding.
The power of good design:
- A well designed house allows you to live better
- A well designed office allows you to work better
- A well designed city allows you to thrive
Beauty is important.
