Dear God,
Thank You for the gift of this new month of July. Thank You for bringing us this far and for Your faithfulness every step of the way. We are grateful for the gift of life and for Your mercies that are new every morning.

As we begin this month, we place our plans, our work, our families, and our future into Your hands. Go before us, guide our steps, and help us make wise decisions each day.

Bless the work of our hands and open the doors You have prepared for us. Give us strength when we grow weary, wisdom when we face challenges, and peace in every situation.

May this month be filled with Your favor, protection, and abundant grace. Let everything we do bring glory to Your name, and may July be a month of growth, joy, and answered prayers.

In Jesus' name, we pray

No amount of sanitization or manipulative re-invention should make you forget Ruto’s sins.

There is a new cash cow in town. 🚨
If you import a car to Kenya right now, @ntsa_kenya is taking weeks to print physical plates after allocation. Since CFS storage fees are piling up, you're forced to drive from Mombasa with your registration on a piece of paper. (1/4)

I stopped negotiating with Uber drivers when it comes to prices. Initially, I used to do it ndio wanibebe but nowadays I just cancel and tell them good luck. The economy is fucking us both in the ass nanii I'll just tip the modest one, not the entitled one.

Paul Njuguna, a retired technical manager at the Agricultural Development Corporation, invested Ksh 16 million in 2019 to set up Elgon Pine, a refined oil and animal feed plant in Eldoret. At its peak, the plant processed 90 tonnes of canola, sunflower, and soya annually, with capacity for 300 tonnes. Njuguna contracted about 100 farmers who supplied raw materials, while he also farmed 10 acres himself.
The business also produced poultry feeds and soap from crop by-products.

The venture collapsed after Kenya Power slapped him with a Ksh 400,000 bill in August 2021, compared to his usual monthly bill of about Ksh 30,000. Njuguna disputed it as an error and filed a complaint, but Kenya Power claimed underbilling and refused to adjust. When he failed to pay, Kenya Power disconnected electricity to both his plant and home. Though EPRA ruled in his favour and ordered reconnection, the power was never restored, forcing him to shut down operations.

The shutdown affected the entire value chain - contracted farmers, suppliers, and employees - all of whom lost income. Njuguna now questions whether the disconnection was deliberate sabotage and why Kenya does little to protect small industrial ventures. His case has raised concerns about how utility billing errors and slow dispute resolution can destroy promising local businesses and the livelihoods tied to them.

We'd rather go into 2027 with two principled MPs than a House packed with spineless sellouts. Any MP unwilling to hold the president accountable has no business asking for our votes. Kenya needs courage, not enablers. Stay guided.

What is life Anyway? Elizabeth Njoki is 21 years old. She was born and raised in Nakuru by a banker father and a businesswoman mother. Her father built a 12-bedroom mansion and owned two cars while her mother ran a boutique. Life was comfortable until she was 12, when her father was diagnosed with cancer and diabetes. He died a month later.

Two weeks after the burial, her father's two brothers showed up and kicked the family out of their own home. They took the cars and the boutique, claiming everything belonged to their late brother. The family had nowhere to go.

They were taken in by a friend of her mother for two weeks. They then moved to Naivasha where another friend helped her mother find a job to provide for the children. The children went back to school and tried to accept their new reality.

After some time, the mother fell into depression and nearly lost her mind. Together with a friend, Njoki helped take her to Mathare Hospital where she was admitted. With her mother gone, Njoki dropped out of school and started doing casual jobs to buy food for her three siblings.

Her mother eventually got better and was discharged from hospital with help from the area MCA. Despite everything, Njoki managed to score 378 marks in her KCSE and a Good Samaritan paid for her entire secondary education.

But in Form Three, her mother's condition worsened again. She started disappearing for days at a time before returning home. Without her knowledge, some men took advantage of her situation and she came back pregnant. Njoki once again had to leave school and look for casual jobs to keep the family fed. Her mother later gave birth to their fifth child.

When they could not pay rent, the landlord locked them out with all their belongings still inside. A family friend then relocated them to their rural home in Kinangop to live with their grandmother. Things stabilised for a while. The children went back to school and Njoki adapted to a life of casual work because her mother's mental health kept deteriorating.

Their grandmother died in 2024 and they were kicked out of that home too. Njoki used her savings to rent a single room and life went on.

In June last year, Njoki collapsed and was rushed to hospital by a neighbour after she was found bleeding. Doctors discovered she had fibroids in her uterus requiring urgent surgery, or the uterus would have to be removed entirely to stop the bleeding. She could not raise the 80,000 shillings needed for the operation and continued living with the daily bleeding.

She was trying to manage her own condition, care for her mentally unstable mother, provide for the younger children and pay rent all at once. It became too much. The landlord kicked them out again and a neighbour took them in.

Then in August last year, their second born son was involved in an accident and died on the spot. Njoki went to the area chief who helped organise a simple burial within two days at a public cemetery in Longonot. Only a handful of people attended. Their mother was absent.

Njoki scored a B plus in KCSE. She had the grades to build a future for herself. Instead she chose to stay behind and hold her family together. Today she lives on hope alone, trusting that God will find a way through.

Nimechoka kusroll. The next scroll is probably a missing child, a dead child or Ruto lying.

This letter from @HarrietOpoma broke my heart.

Here is a young Kenyan who went to school, worked hard, graduated with a degree, and has spent 10 years trying to find a breakthrough without success. Behind many smiles you see out here, there are painful private battles people rarely talk about.

Many young people are exhausted, not because they are lazy, but because opportunities have become so difficult to access.

I am sharing Harriet’s letter with hope that someone somewhere may help open a door for her.

If you know of a genuine opportunity that may help Harriet, kindly reach out.

Sometimes all someone needs is one chance.

May God remember and uplift every young Kenyan still trying despite the disappointments and closed doors.
