Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to Chancellor Merz:

I've also heard you say that you want to find that balance between innovation and regulation.

There's nothing to regulate if the industry doesn't thrive.

It is time for the EU to make an oil deal with Iran.

For decades, the United States pushed Europe — and in particular Germany — to break energy ties with Russia. They did, becoming highly dependent on imports of fossil fuels from Washington, paying multiples of the price they were offered by Moscow. Germany is deindustrializing as a result. Now, as US policies drive the world towards an energy cliff, Washington is set to buy inexpensive fuel from Russia to address its own crisis — while waging a proxy war on Russia! To call this a humiliation for Germany is an understatement.

No wonder we don't get the best deals out there in international boardrooms. How can we, if the best we can send to represent and negotiate on behalf of Kenya are ICC suspects, NYS scammers, drug lords, and generally economic saboteurs? 🤔

I will forever hate anyone who suggests we need a dictator. That’s why I hate Diddy Nyoro and now Abel Mutua. Look at what is happening in Rwanda where women are arrested for wearing mini skirts, Uganda with Bezigye, TZ with Tundu Lisu, Zambia with Mundubile. We must never take our freedoms for granted.

ONLY TRUTH SHALL SET US FREE

Central Kenya/Mount Kenya received the Lion’s share of development projects between 1963 to 2013.

Luo Nyanza received ZERO development. It was a national government policy.

ON TOP of that, after 2013, following the introduction of DEVOLUTION, Central Kenya/Mount Kenya region started receiving allocations like all other counties like Homa Bay.

Consequently, one cannot expect Kiambu, Nyeri, Murang’a, Nyandarua and other Mount Kenya counties which received PREFERENTIAL treatment during Jomo Kenyatta’s, Daniel arap Moi’s, Mwai Kibaki’s and Uhuru Kenyatta’s TRIBALISTIC and INEQUITABLE regimes to be at the same level of development as Luo Nyanza counties which had received ZERO development budgets for more than 45 years.

Regarding corruption: Absolutely ALL county and national governments are and have been corrupt. Without exception.

Gladys Wanga is not more corrupt than Susan Kihika or Anne Waiguru, for instance. Wamatang’i is not less corrupt than James Orengo or Anyang’ Nyong’o. The only difference is that Waiguru, Kihika and Wamatang’i are governors of Mount Kenya whose region was developed at the expense of Luo Nyanza region for more than 45 years.

This is like comparing Uhuru Kenyatta’s children with children of peasants in Homa Bay if those children were given Kshs 100,000 to start a livelihood. Anyone who makes such a comparison is both idiotic and dishonest. One set of children start off with TRILLIONS of LOOTED public money while the second set of children start from poverty.

Similarly, William Ruto is corrupt, but he is NOT more corrupt than Jomo Kenyatta, Mwai Kibaki or Uhuru Kenyatta.

IF we want to eradicate corruption, abuse of power, the culture of impunity and the inequities which have ravaged most people in Kenya for the past 60 plus years, we must stop deception, selective amnesia, hypocrisy and historical revisionism. We must tell the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth.

Mocking and laughing at Homa Bay county and its people is insensitive, childish, tribalist and callous.

Linda Bandits has exposed itself to be just another KANU, PNU, Jubilee, ODM and UDA. Its leaders have failed to legislate for the people. They have failed to oversight the national government and county governments. And for governors like Orengo who has been an MP for 50 years; a cabinet minister under the corrupt grand coalition government; and Siaya governor for 4 years, he must show us the high quality infrastructure he has built in Siaya, how he has delivered services and accounted for the tens of billions of shillings Siaya has received since 2022.

The same applies to George Natembeya who was a brutal and thuggish County Commissioner under despot Uhuru Kenyatta and has been governor for Trans-Nzioa for the past 4 years.

I was in Form One when Orengo was an MP. Gladys Wanga was in primary school! Let’s be serious.

If the Linda Bandits were honest, they wouldn’t be wearing Raila Odinga’s images on their t-shirts while mocking a governor he imposed on the Homa Bay people. Caroli Omondi, an ODM MP, whose constituency the dusty road is in, shouldn’t be yelling at Wanga. Orengo himself was imposed by Raila as the Siaya governor. If they are serious, they must renounce Raila Odinga and stop claiming, hypocritically, that they are the embodiment of Raila’s legacy of dust. They must stop playing Raila’s songs at their functions. Let them be honest and distance themselves from Raila’s legacy. And as they do that, let them also resign from ODM and go back for fresh mandates. Only then can they claim to start afresh.

Shouting WANTAM and TUTAM is not vision. It’s not a manifesto. It’s not a transformative program for the people.

Only a revolution (which the Linda Bandits and UDA thugs fear) will liberate Kenya.

We will deconstruct all of you 24/7 whether you wail or crawl back into your shallow intellectual caves.

Telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

@magattew Exactly. The West should stop treating Africa like it desperately needs their help. This is patronizing nonsense.

Frankly, my observation is that the average happiness in a village in Africa is higher than the average happiness in Beverly Hills!

Having been a Pastoralist all my life, I decided to try farming as a future retirement hustle. I am learning the hard way & I now understand why farmers have been crying. It is just too expensive to do farming in Kenya. And I am not even talking about serious farming here!
