@VinnieBaite @mugane_georges Am i the only one reading this in the voice of the professor😂....sounds like the professor has got us for another full season
My intuition is SO crazy. I can literally have no evidence of what's going on but still know there's something going on behind my back & I'm always right😭
Whoever came up with the phrase cheap is expensive certainly never fueled at Astrol Petrol Station.
1. It is 100% Kenyan, founded in 2000 by the late Thayu Kamal Kabugi and is now run by the son, James Mwangi.
2. They not only own the land their stations are built on to cut costs but also manage their stations directly rather than franchising.
3. Their fuel contains a high 91 PON rating, which is higher than the premium fuels around, including V-Power.
4. They are not only 2 - 7 shillings cheaper but also never hoard fuel whenever there are shortages.
We don’t appreciate such companies enough
Harry Truman once said: “The only thing new in the world is the history you do not know.”
Fellow Kenyans, our crisis did not begin yesterday.
The looting. The illegal debt. The betrayal of the Constitution. The collapse of public services. The silence of career politicians. These are old scripts repeated by leaders who believe Kenyans forget quickly.
They believe another scandal will trend. Another distraction will come. Another funeral, another handshake, another coalition, another slogan.
Meanwhile, you pay more taxes for debts you never approved and never benefited from.
Between 2014 and 2024, Kenya borrowed Sh9.11 trillion. Only Sh2.57 trillion received proper parliamentary approval. The remaining Sh6.54 trillion is odious debt, unconstitutional borrowing forced onto the backs of struggling citizens.
This is why food prices rise while wages stagnate. This is why hospitals lack medicine while billions disappear. This is why schools decline while politicians grow richer. This is why young people graduate into hopelessness.
And while Kenya bleeds, legacy politicians remain silent. Many are not fighting to fix the system. They are fighting to inherit it.
They criminalize protesters. They weaponize police. They reward political loyalists with advisory jobs funded by taxpayers. They protect corruption networks while ordinary Kenyans suffer.
We go to court because the Constitution is the last line of defense between the people and organized state plunder.
From the struggle for independence in 1963, to Saba Saba, to the 2010 Constitution, every generation of Kenyans has been called to defend freedom against greed and impunity. History is watching us now.
If we remain silent while our country is looted, future generations will remember us as the people who watched Kenya collapse and did nothing.
Read history. Defend the Constitution. Reject fear. Reject silence. Reject thieves disguised as leaders.
We must be a nation that reads, remembers, and refuses to be misled by the same old tricks. Know your history, defend your rights, and let us not be "newly" surprised by what we should have already learned.
Kenya istahili heshima

And not everyone who leaves is meant to break us.
Sometimes the lesson is simple, even if it hurts. Give, but don’t disappear.
Care, but keep your boundaries.
Love, but don’t abandon yourself.
Because in the end, you deserve the same energy you so willingly gave
Many times, we convince ourselves that we’re helping someone heal.
We hold them through their darkest moments, pour our energy into them, and hope that one day they’ll see the love we’ve been giving so freely. We pray that their past pain softens, that they rise above it.
But here’s the part we don’t talk about enough: Helping someone heal doesn’t mean they owe you a place in their future. more importantly Loving someone should never mean losing yourself in the process.
Not everyone we help is meant to stay.
