The diaspora is not treating investment like charity. It is literally replacing the state. That $100 billion is not going to consumption out of a lack of financial vision. It is keeping families alive because African governments have abdicated every responsibility they were supposed to carry. School fees, hospital bills, housing, food: the diaspora is subsidising what governance failed to provide, mostly while barely surviving themselves in expensive cities abroad.
Children , Kibaki's first Finance Minister David Mwiraria announced that financial year 2003/2004 , Kenya had an excess of budget. There was no need to borrow and every government expenditure was well funded. Good old days.
Ancient Africans understood problems. An idiot would never have understood that there were aftereffects of war that needed attention.
If we were allowed to keep developing at our own pace, our medicine and technology would have advanced. European invasion derailed African civilisation.
Every Kenyan citizen and all defenders of justice, join me in raising our voices to tell the Ugandan authorities to immediately release @BobNjagi and @NicolasOyoo or beginning Wednesday we shall close the Malaba and Busia borders. #FungaUgandaBorder#ReleaseBobAndNicolas.
The trauma the Kikuyu community went through during the Emergency period affects them up to this day and prevents them from mourning “properly”.
As noted by Caroline Elkins in her book Britains Gulag, the brutal end of empire in Kenya, women would watch their kids dying in the colonial village camps and they were not allowed to mourn. The brutal forced labor was to continue as usual! Your child dies, you through them into the ditch, bury them and continue working!
Guys, we might have to fundraise for bail. These kids (19-23) are being held in remand in Kamiti and Lang’ata womens. If we don’t get them out, they will spend months in jail waiting for trial😔😔😔.
No, you elect Maraga and then take a critical look at the people running for member of parliament from your area, there's one with integrity, elect him/her, they'll work together
It's just common sense
“I am not an expert at everything. What I want to offer Kenyans, is leadership.
I will be like a Captain: get competent people on various positions in Govt. Give them the confidence to work. Authorize them to do their work. And demand results”

Guys this court room is full of young people being falsely accused of robbery with violence and the prosecutor is loudly saying that if they’re found guilty they’ll be hanged. Brazenly! Sick mfs!
At Limuru Law Courts today where 23 people were arrested in relation to the SabaSaba protests, 4 of whom were minors, we’ve managed to secure the unconditional release of the minors, and hopefully the other 19 can be released under favorable bail terms. I’ll update you. Viva! ✊🏼
As of Thursday there were 9 children with gunshots wounds at KNH. ALL were shot at home on 7/7 by police. The youngest Dan Odhiambo 7 yrs old was watching cartoons at home
in Kiserian when two police bullets wounded him. This nation needs to be at a standstill!!!!!
Julia Njoki was tortured inside Nanyuki Police Station.
This has been normalized for far too long . FAR TOO LONG.
These Killer cops and known and are only transfered to go stir up trouble elsewhere.
We DEMAND #JusticeforJuliaNjoki
