I condemn today’s military escalation in the Middle East. The use of force by the United States & Israel against Iran, and the subsequent retaliation by Iran across the region, undermine international peace & security.
All Member States must respect their obligations under international law, including the Charter of the @UN. The Charter clearly prohibits “the threat of the use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.”
I call for an immediate cessation of hostilities & de-escalation. Failing to do so risks a wider regional conflict with grave consequences for civilians & regional stability. I strongly encourage all parties to return immediately to the negotiating table.
I reiterate that there is no viable alternative to the peaceful settlement of international disputes, in full accordance with international law, including the UN Charter. The Charter provides the foundation for the maintenance of international peace and security.
Pope Leo XIV has cautioned Catholic priests against relying on artificial intelligence to prepare sermons, urging them instead to root their preaching in personal faith and lived experience

THERE is too much juvenile, toxic, egotistical, self-adulatory, and propagandistic garbage online in Kenya. Folks now mistake social media for real life. They report every fart. Use social media sparingly and get a real life and you will live a healthier, happier existence.
Just like that Dr. Fred Okeng'o Matiangi has consolidated the whole of KISII behind him.
Not by tribal sentiments.
Not by chest thumping.
Not by politics of shareholding.
But by sheer competence, track record and fearless attitude in the face of corruption.
Dr. Matiang'i MUST be supported because he embodies what Kenyans want.

The Tsavo Conservation Area, Kenya's largest wildlife rangeland, is a cornerstone for the conservation of iconic species such as elephants and rhinos. Through rigorous conservation measures, Kenya’s rhino population has been on a positive trajectory. This success has led to overpopulation challenges in several rhino sanctuaries, including the Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary in Tsavo West National Park.
Today, KWS Director General Dr. @ErustusKanga led a crucial meeting with stakeholders operating in the Tsavo region, bringing together key partners from Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Tsavo Trust, and 51 Degrees. Discussions focused on strategies to expand space for rhino conservation and to enhance infrastructural and technological capabilities within the Tsavo Conservation Area to support sustainable population growth.
These efforts underscore the collaborative commitment to protect Kenya’s rhinos and other wildlife, ensuring the resilience and biodiversity of Tsavo’s ecosystems.
