Fantastic idea in theory.
However, there are approximately 4M cars in Kenya, they only have 19 inspection centers.
Running 7 days a week including public holidays, they'd have to inspect about 11,000 cars per day, 580 per center, 8 hours per day means 72 cars per hour nonstop
This jamaa called Swaleh sonko here,He is a classic case study of what we call structural Under development. He lives in a metalic house with a religiously patched roof. His Voice box is corroded from eating and smoking garbage. He has No stable job. He Lives hand to mouth. The sanitary condition of the toilet he uses is extremely unhealthy. He is poor man
But his poverty and inhumane living conditions,do not stem from him being lazy or weak. His poverty is designed. And those who have designed it,are the ones who hire him to protect them. Suale has photos with govenors,Public secretaries,Senators, MCAs and Opposition leaders. He visits them in their palatial homes,they talk,then in the evening he returns to his chicken coup.
Him,his environment, and those he lives with,serve the same masters that have condemned them to such filthy livelihood. From the masters eyes,Suale must remain poor,for him to continue serving them. And suale,because of the small gifts and tokens he recieves from them,has been decieved to think he is one of them.
This is the reason ghettos will never cease to exist. They are the Kitchen for Corrupt,Blood feeding,Tribally alligned politicians who want access to government through violence.
Hizi videos wekeni vizuri. It may not be tomorrow or this year but the next time we manage to tale back our country watu watalala Kamiti. I don't even think we have enough prisons for the amount of people we need to jail
And this is why the idea of visiting or staying in a man's house even for a weekend stresses me tf out. I infact just like to stay at mines cos you could be thinking he wants you there whole time anafikiria hii weekend itaishi lini huyu aende kwake?
Wewe ni mbwa sana.
Without Standard Media, nobody would even know you the way they know you today. You were built by the same media ecosystem you are now trying to spit on.
Let people who grew without newsroom platforms, TV exposure, editors, cameras, newspapers and institutional media backing be the ones to lecture the industry.
That is why many Kenyan journalists disappear the moment they leave mainstream media. Some rushed to YouTube, some started small media companies, some tried to become brands on their own, but reality slapped them very fast.
Media gave many of you the name, the audience, the credibility and the doors you now pretend came from your own greatness.
Respect the ecosystem that raised you, even when you think you have outgrown it.
Those who stormed a church and attacked worshippers were released by the next day. Those who peacefully protested are already in court.
Justice in Kenya no longer appears blind. It seems to recognize faces before it recognizes facts.
When Botswana was constructing their roads, you would find random piles of cement. Unguarded. I think that was truly my first experience of a high trust society
It is below Standard to imagine, a woman who made her name at KTN could not advise her husband that witchdoctors cannot multiply his money, but now wants to advise the Standard about journalism Standards.
That time they arrested Lichuma from Mathare social justice, threw him on a lorry. High above them, he proceeded to give them a few truths on why Kenyans are protesting. Waliaibika mpaka akashuka.
You kill my child that I have raised for over 20 years at great emotional and financial cost
You try to bribe me with 1 million to forget about it
Then you tell me to appreciate?
I would rather serve a prison term for eliminating anyone who killed my child than touch that money
Gen Z are wrong, they are the problem
Millenials are wrong, they must pay more taxes.
Standard media are wrong, they are extortionists.
Everyone is wrong, except the president.
@festolang Police didn't pick up David Chege's body after he was shot dead.
Instead, they repeatedly teargassed unarmed protesters who covered his head and held a flag over him
