As a teenager, I was taught the basic principles of philosophy by Professor Odera-Oruka. He taught us that even if you forget everything else he had taught, remember that the role of a philosopher is to QUESTION EVERYTHING—and that societies which have not questioned everything have historically lagged behind those that did—in civilization, technological development and the improvement of the human condition.
So, stop complaining when some of us question everything. We do so to improve the human condition—and we shall never stop.

I have talked to a number of reliable sources. I can confirm that the Hon CJ @CJMarthaKoome has cracked the whip starting with the judges of the Court of Appeal. A file for every judge of the Court showing the number of rulings and judgments delivered was shared with the judges. CJ gave them one week to verify the contents of their files. The report will then be shared/released to the public next week...latest. from my sources, Nairobi is total disaster...some judges sadly were just drinking UJI instead of delivering for the Kenyan public. @Kenyajudiciary@lawsocietykenya@NelsonHavi@omwanza
You know what’s funny?
#Iran is charging around $1 per barrel. At the current Brent price of ~$80/barrel, that is 1.25%.
#TRUMP is proposing to charge a 20% fee, that is 16x the Iranian fee.
For a tanker carrying 1 million barrels, assuming oil is worth $80 per barrel:
Iran: ~$1 million ( $1/barrel)
U.S.: ~$16 million (20% fee)
Sooo… the USA wants to charge its own allies around 16x more than Iran is reportedly charging?
At the same time, it is helping flare up the region and turn it into a regional mess where Gulf allies are being hit by missiles and drones, tourism and foreign investment are getting crushed, civilians are dying, and families are being displaced as bombs fall across the region.
And after all that, the same allies are supposed to pay the USA far more for “protection”?
“What a great ally #America is” 🤣
Trump needs to get out of office and America needs to just get the F back home.
🚨 Trump just announced the U.S. is now “Guardian of the Hormuz Strait” — and Iran’s ships get the boot while everyone else pays 20% for security.
What do you think about this move?

It has proven to be upsettingly futile to elect poor people in government hoping they will represent us well since they understand the struggle because they were once part of us. As it turns out,most of them just work to enrich themselves to ensure they are no longer poor
