MICHAEL built a giant Telecommunications institution.
BOB scaled it and built an innovative tech company.
Nowadays, it is a mongrel.
You can't tell if it is a bank, a wealth fund, a credit firm, or a crime investigation bureau.
Tech companies should be led by techies.
Yesterday I went to a courier office to pick up a parcel.
It was around 7 PM.
There was news on the TV lounge.
Then Ruto came. I don't know what he was saying.
Then, people there started throwing gestures and sneering.
I doubt if people still respect him.
Ako na kibarua.
Do you know what has just happened in South Korea?
• Their besieged, unpopular president declares a state of emergency and martial law.
• President bans protests and censors media.
• Parliament rejects the decree and votes to restore the constitutional order by 190-0.
• Army storms Parliament to arrest MPs.
• Citizens storm the streets to protest and block the army.
• Army withdraws.
• President stands impeached.
All this drama in 1 day.
Keep clapping for others.
Vox Populi, Vox Dei.

#BetterTogether
When you get:
• Broke
• Depressed
• Broken
• Abandoned
Never make the mistake of relying on your siblings and relatives.
They will mock you behind your back.
Fight it out alone.
Fight silently.
Otherwise, the day you climb out, they will remind you how you were a nuisance and a beggar and how they helped you.
So, fight alone.
Fight silently.
You will win.
— and when you win, remain silent.
Don't be boisterous.
Remain humble.
Lose privately, fight privately, win privately.
#BetterTogether
Bonus:
You are a KING!
Be proud of yourself.
Face life with a reptilian mindset.
There are bad days and good days. Pick lessons from them.
Stay away from politicians, they are crooks.
Strive to be better than what you were yesterday.
Live a righteous life.

Bonus:
