Industrializing nations and building economies is not merely a physical issue; it is spiritual and the battle must be won in the spirit realm before it can be won in the natural realm.

Serving God’s people is an extraordinary privilege, and Sunday was no exception as I gave my all in delivering the message God placed on my heart. Even when I sensed the weight of my humanity and pushed through nonetheless, I’m reminded that even the strongest must rely on His strength.

I give thanks unto the Lord that I did not have a stroke, however the event could’ve been fatal if it weren’t for God’s intervention. A special thank you to God and the medical professionals in our city whose speed and expertise were beyond exceptional. My job is to recuperate and reflect on God’s protection. I owe it to my amazing family and church members to rest and ruminate as He restores me towards His service. As God calls us to honor the Sabbath, I’m reminded that rest is not a weakness – it is a divine gift.

While I continue to be strengthened by His grace, I stand in awe of my family and the tremendous leadership team that surrounds me. Together, we press forward, steadfast in the work the Lord has set before us. I’ve heard from friends from the global community who expressed God’s love in ways that were astonishing! God’s faithfulness was unmistakable to all those present.

I’m forever humbled by your outpouring of love and support. I will always give my best. May His presence continue to guide and sustain you and provide peace and protection over you all.

The IMF and World Bank disagree on ending Kenya Power's monopoly.

The IMF supports opening up the electricity market to allow competition, but the World Bank warns this could make power prices go up

The state of the economy doesn’t need translation or explanation—it shows itself, its reality visible to anyone who looks, in the lives of people and businesses alike.

Finally i got this book; “ACCELERATING INDIA’S DEVELOPMENT” by Prof Karthik Muralidharan. It has 812 pages. So you need patience to read it. This book emphasises the importance of having an EFFECTIVE STATE if a country desires fast modernisation and development.
One may now understand why weak states in Africa are contributing to slower economic growth in the continent.
Please read it and you will thank me in future.

In 2008, Elon pulled off the greatest comeback in corporate history.

Tesla was burning $4M per month on a car no one wanted.

0 sold. 3 Weeks from bankruptcy.

Then he made a move so risky it almost landed him in prison.

Here's the crazy story:

I recommend this book: “The Political Logic of Economic Reform in China” by Susan L. Shirk. It explains how China was able to undertake economic reforms, which ultimately helped the country to escape poverty, though without any political reforms. It has some lessons for African countries.

We had a feeling that the DP’s impeachment was being used as a distraction for the gov't to push through controversial policies. And true to our Kenyan instincts, it WAS a distraction.

Here’s what has happened, so far, while we've been distracted:
