@C_NyaKundiH Your entire weekend was spent peddling the 'bad experiment'. Yesterday I asked you to give reference to the specific clause in the law you purported to be the basis of the 'looting'. Now you try to clean yourself of the mess you ask yourself into. You failed on this one
@Paul_Muite As a SC, can you be kind and quote the reference section(s) in either the Cooperatives Bill or the Proposed SACCO Amendment Bill? I've read through, but you see I'm just a farmer, may your law lenses can read better than mine
@C_NyaKundiH Kindly reference the exact sections in the Cooperatives Bill and the Proposed SACCO Amendment Bill of 2025. I've read through the two, and may be I missed it. I'm an active SACCO member
@ntvkenya Being active in my Sacco, kindly reference to the section in the proposed SACCO Amendment Bill of 2025? That will be great education to me. I've read through, may be my reading is not good enough
@WashiraX Where is the reference of this Sacco savings being used as government securities? I've read both the Cooperatives Bill and the proposed SACCO Amendment Bill of 2025 I'm yet to find it, kindly quote the exact sections
@moneyacademyKE I have read the Cooperatives Bill and the proposed SACCO Amendment Bill of 2025, may be I missed in my reading, kindly quote the said sections you're referring to? I'm active in the Coop and Sacco sectors.
@HonMoses_Kuria My parents who have never tasted toothpaste have all their 32 teeth intact, 0 visit to a dentist. I with 'modern medicine' used tooth paste, lost 4 teeth, several visits to dentist 🦷. Nani fala?
Signs of a Declining State & Uncompetitive Society: The Politics of Shiny Decay, And Airports Without Light Bulbs
1. A Celebrity Wedding Dominates News For Days
In a context where many struggle, a society’s and media’s fixation on things like a celebrity wedding for days reflects a culture prioritising escapism. It normalises inequality by glorifying ostentatious displays in the face of widespread poverty.
2. Politicians Compete In Funerals, Not Ideas
When the greatest currency in politics is the size of your condolence envelope, governance has already been outsourced to coffin carpenters.
3. Sportspeople And Influencers Earn Over 10 Times More Than Teachers And Doctors
Not because entertainment is evil, but because the system has decided applause is worth more than survival.
4. Status Women Outshine Stateswomen
Society hails the minister’s Instagram wardrobe more than her budget speech; power is worn, not exercised.
5. Education Becomes A Certificate Factory
A declining society prioritises credentials over competence. Degrees are exported to Dubai; remittances are imported back home.
6. Economy Measures Itself By Consumption, Not Production
If the supermarket looks full while the factory floor stays empty, decline is already dressed in imported suits.
7. Food Becomes Fashion
A farmer is pitied, but avocado toast in a café is worshipped. Hunger grows in the village as nutritionists preach in the capital.
8. Garbage, Plastic Piles, And Clogged Pipes
Rubbish choking streets, rivers, and markets reflects a broader disregard for public spaces. The failure to organise basic sanitation mirrors a deeper inability to coordinate for collective progress.
9. Culture Is Staged For Foreigners
Drums beat only when the donor agency lands. The rest of the year, local musicians survive on beer-fuelled karaoke of American hip-hop.
10. Technology Is Measured By Phones, Not Patents
A nation of the latest iPhones but no indigenous operating system or software scrolls the future instead of building it. Leaders tout “digital progress” through internet access while neglecting to train coders and engineers.
11. Parliaments Debate Allowances More Than Laws
The national budget is a sideshow; what matters is the car grant, the per diem, and who travelled to Geneva.
12. The Middle Class Invests More In Security Than In Industry
A house with five guards but no running water is not wealth; it is paranoia institutionalised.
13. Religion Becomes Therapy
Churches and mosques compete to sell miracle oils and prosperity visas, while poverty queues outside like an eternal congregation.
14. Heroes Are Mourned More Than They Are Made
National pride is reserved for dead poets, long-gone guerrillas, and footballers. The present is too barren to celebrate.
15. Infrastructure Crumbles While Megaprojects Shine
An uncompetitive society prioritises flashy megaprojects—like shiny airports or presidential palaces—over basic infrastructure. Rural roads remain impassable, and urban power grids flicker. Sometimes it’s a deliberate choice to create visible symbols of progress for political gain, while neglecting the less glamorous but critical systems that enable broad-based growth. The result: bridges to nowhere, airports with no planes, and stadiums without leagues—all ribbon, no road.
16. History Is Rewritten Every Election
A president erases the last regime’s sins and writes new myths about himself; the nation survives only in political speeches, not in memory.

@Mick_O_Keeffe Imagine each of those women have two or 3 kids. How many do your women have 🤔? Unzip your trousers, that's the only revolution you need like yesterday: POPULATE
@georgediano The hatred against Kalenjins will and shall never shake us. This narrative has been there, we've experienced it. And, when push comes to shove, we shall make you punch a wall. We're no pushover. When Moi left office, we were mocked: for 100 years you'll not see statehouse
@kiplimoaraap Pongezi for the good job. Consider setting up a fund to support the co-ops and the Union have working capital. The current banking system will not support the co-ops. The management structure to be put in place should be one that guarantees commercial sustainability.
@MombasaEmir@JuncaoGrass NDF of 79+%, DM of 11%, and CP of 13%, and you'll understand why you can't feed this on a high yielding dairy cow and expect milk
@georgediano You should be ashamed of yourself. Of what gain will you get if they get killed (as you so devilishly wish)? Emancipate yourself from your devilish hatred
