Great Info Bro, they are great places most I didn't even know. I'll plan a visit to these places.

[Here we go! @DaviesKinanga]

Places in Nairobi where you can hang out for under KES 1,000.

US-based pre-seed investor Madica has committed to backing five new #startups in Africa, boosting its presence across the continent https://t.co/Baerggk3sY

This is wrong and actually illegal.
All candidates and political parties have a RIGHT to have agents at polling stations. Incitements of this kind are counterproductive because Ruto can also illegally use state agents to lock others from having agents in his perceived areas.

Public debt has become a subject of general interest, which is a very good thing. The current debate is however very badly misinformed. Aaron has done a splendid job of making a highly technical subject accessible to the general public.

There is a liver and pancreas epidemic wiping out Kenyan men right now and the silence is deafening.

Nobody is talking about it.

Nobody is panicking.

But we are still burying people.

The cause?

Kenyan alcohol.

This month ALONE I’ve counted 8 friends admitted with liver or pancreatic damage.

Eight. Bloated stomachs, abdominal pain so severe it won’t subside no matter what the doctors do.

The UK has put Kenya on a watchlist for dangerous alcohol.

Rwanda has banned some of our liquor outright.

Other countries are shutting it out too.

The whole world can see what’s poisoning us and we’re still pouring it.

A few years ago we buried a brilliant CEO. Liver destroyed by drink.

By the time the doctors understood what was happening, he was already dead.

Getting a legit drink in this country is now a gamble with your life.

I have friends who will only drink in ONE place they trust, because everywhere else is a coin toss between a night out and a hospital bed.

The doctors aren’t sugarcoating it anymore.

They’re telling survivors: “Take one sip and tell your family where you want to be buried.”

Drink the same brand abroad and it tastes like heaven.

Same label. Same bottle. Different poison.

That’s how we know it’s us.

We cannot keep killing our own people for profit.

I am tired of visiting friends in hospital for alcohol poisoning.

How many more before somebody cracks down on this madness? @InteriorKE @kipmurkomen @NACADAKenya

I like the buzz and positive vibes around @KenyaAirways. The new board lead by Chairman @KipronoKittony brought much needed sizzle and pizzazz.

Gachagua statement is on POINT. One, the courts INSULTED his intelligence when they offered him 50 million. Give it to the poor. Two, this man will be on the BALLOT in 2027. Kalonzo and Matiangi MUST climb down. QUESTION: Is Kalonzo SAFE with Ruto or Riggy? Think about it.

Yes! Yes I can pass The U.S. Citizenship Test.

I wonder how many students could, though.

@KagutaMuseveni Why are you leading peasants surely Mr. Presiden? And you really don't need to remind them. Anyway, congratulations on your 7th term.

Frame 1 is Kenol- Nyeri dual road
Frame 2 is Nairobi- Nakuru highway
Somebody somewhere is saying dualing of Frame 2 is a waste of money but it was very ok to dual frame 1. Just look at the traffic between the two.
