Kenya's Noah Ngeny set the 1000m world record of 2:11.96 back in 1999.
It stood for 27 years...
Until fellow Kenyan Emmanuel Wanyonyi broke it on his very first attempt 🤯🇰🇪
"The roots of civilization are deep in the soil of Africa. Africans have played a role in history, a role that now they cannot deny themselves of or be denied. Here is a vision: To fight for the liberation, to fight in defense of the greatness and nobility of the sons and daughters of Africa."
Anton Lembede, "Freedom in our Lifetime"
I joined colleagues in Nairobi for the nationwide @LawSocietyofKe purple ribbon march over the recent killing of Advocates. Our role as defenders of the rule of law is historically premised on the principle that Advocates must never be victimized or persecuted for representing their clients. The persistent attacks on advocates not only deprive Advocates of their right to work, it undermines the administration of Justice. These atrocities must be investigated and the perpetrators brought to book.
Automation doesn't destroy wealth. It creates it. Every time a machine replaces a human in a repetitive task, the cost of producing that good drops, prices fall, and real purchasing power rises across the entire economy. This is the whole point.
Think about what happened between 1900 and 1970 in American manufacturing. Ford's assembly line didn't throw the economy into unemployment chaos. It made cars cheap enough that ordinary workers could buy them. The loom didn't impoverish England. It made cloth affordable for people who had previously worn rags. In both cases, the workers displaced from one sector moved into new industries that hadn't existed before, because rising productivity freed up capital to fund them. This is how an economy actually grows: not by protecting existing jobs, but by constantly reallocating labor toward higher-value uses.
The fear of automation follows a logic so old it has a name. The Luddites smashed textile machinery in Nottinghamshire in 1811 and 1812. They lost, obviously. Not because the government crushed them (though it did), but because the productivity gains from mechanized textile production were simply too large and too beneficial to suppress. Free market thinkers from Bastiat onward identified the core error in the Luddite position: you are only seeing the job that disappears. You are not seeing the purchasing power that spreads outward when goods get cheaper, or the new industries that absorb the displaced labor.
Politicians are still making the Luddite error in 2026. Tariffs on Chinese manufactured goods, union lobbying against warehouse automation, proposed taxes on robots: all of these policies do the same thing. They force you to pay more for goods than you otherwise would, so that a specific group of producers can avoid competing. The beneficiaries are visible and organized. The victims are every consumer in the country, diffuse and anonymous.
Capital accumulation drives the whole process. Businesses invest in automation because it lowers their costs, and in a competitive market, they pass those savings to you through lower prices. When governments interfere with that process, through regulation, subsidy, or protected monopoly, they slow capital formation and you get higher prices, stagnant wages, and less innovation. The arithmetic doesn't care about your politics.
So he was trying to grab the rest of the money that Fikirini had, at the same time he was also trying to grab Fikirinis phone. In all this, he also managed to grab another phone which 'disappeared' while he was also trying to grab the steering wheel? I see...
🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Erling Haaland eats around 6,000 calories a day and has six meals every day to fuel his 6ft 5in frame.
His diet includes chicken, pasta, steak, fish, eggs, vegetables, organ meats, raw milk and honey. He also avoids sugary snacks and mainly drinks water.
Former Norway teammate Josh King once said:
"I've never seen anyone eat as much as he does. He eats like a bear."

Banks could now be held responsible if they fail to act quickly after customers report suspected mobile banking fraud.
This comes after the High Court ruled against Family Bank and ordered it to pay a customer Sh350,000 over delayed action to secure her account.
I tried to join KDF after high school, I didn't want to go to campus, I cleared every vetting stage...running, height, weight, blood pressure, work out, eye sight, took a piss, I still remember when the lieutenant general in charge of the recruitment told me, umemaliza kila kitu sasa ingia mfuko, ita babako tumalize hii mambo.
I had only 150/= left for fare from wote town to kola town, didn't even haveva phone.
A guy ended up taking my spot.
They waited 4hours akijilazimisha kukojoa, akapewa adi juice itoke, he never did and his blood pressure was over the roof, he was the 7th recruit out of Unoa grounds, Wote town, 2015.
Later he confided in me his father had paid 400,000/=
So wacha kutugaslight, close to 200 kenyans show up for recruitment at every location, and watch 7 lazy kids buy their spots.
Am not for serving another nation's military either, but I understand those who do.

🚨 Vozinha: "I saw the match against Egypt. They were victims too, just like us. The referees seem to have one set of rules for Argentina and another for everyone else. If Argentina commits a foul, play goes on. If their opponents do the same, it's a penalty or a yellow card".
