Quite a number contradictions in the high court judgment. Surely, its finding that Gachagua was not given a fair hearing vitiates the Senate's vote to uphold the impeachment. And is the court now saying Gachagua is free to vie for public office?
Sorry! PhD is not a qualification for a job! PhD is a foundation to do what you are passionate about - exert your skills in line with your passion. Your superiors should have guided you on what post doctoral studies to pursue - and research to undertake! That is how to exert your skills! My apology for this but this is what I always advise students to do
@MutwiriKirimi I suggest you package yourself better and pitch for an opportunity. Jobs follow skills and values. The papers we hold and the universities we attended are immaterial in the labour market.
The African continent doesn’t need more entrepreneurs. It’s full of them.
What it needs is a specific class of entrepreneurs called industrialists: business people who build value-adding firms in export-oriented job creating sectors, not rent capture.
Codex has become a core part of how we do data science at OpenAI.
We’re launching the Data Science plugin, built by data scientists for data scientists.
From exploring raw data and diagnosing metric changes to building dashboards and writing reports, it helps accelerate the path from data to insight.
It’s already being adopted by data teams at some of the world’s largest companies. The feedback is consistent: it acts as a force multiplier, helping people move faster, handle more complex work, and produce better outcomes.
Excited to share it with everyone.
A storm is brewing over the government's plans to hive off a section of Imenti Forest in Meru County for the construction of a State lodge, a Golf Course, and an airstrip.
Construction of a state lodge was one of President Ruto’s campaign pledges in Meru.

Every morning, the moment my eyes open, I wake up to 40 unread Slack messages that effectively say:
“If you don’t fix this in the next 5 minutes, the world will implode and the app will cease to exist.”
The debt crisis that might hit us will be monumental.
We are securitizing everything that can be securitized, from parastatal funds, imports & infrastructure levies, HF, Pension Fund, HELB, W&YEF, et al.
IMF has flagged the securitization and Kenya’s risk of distress as high. Debt to GPD ratio is now past 56%.
The even bigger problem is that those monies line the pockets of a few people while the citizens are left to bear the burden.
Introducing Agent Arena: real-world agentic evals at scale.
How do you evaluate agents doing actual work? We measure millions of live sessions where real users accomplish real tasks.
On Arena, models now get web search, filesystem, and terminal tools to complete complex workflows: writing code, creating slide deck, researching the web, building apps, and analyzing documents.
Every session produces rich signals. Users iterate with the agent turn-by-turn: approving, editing, correcting, praise or expressing frustration. The environment gives feedback too: shell errors, tool failures, recovery attempts, and more.
Our leaderboard measures each model's agentic performance using causal inference across five signals: task success, steerability, error recovery, user praise vs. complaint, and tool hallucination.
This leaderboard snapshot is built from 300K+ tasks, 2M+ tool calls, and 40M lines of code by agents.
Top labs in Agent Arena:
- #1 @OpenAI: GPT-5.5 (High)
- #2 @AnthropicAI: Claude-Opus-4.7 (Thinking)
- #3 @Zai_org: GLM-5.1
- #4 @GoogleDeepMind: Gemini-3.1-Pro
- #5 @Kimi_Moonshot: Kimi-K2.6

A Chinese anti-epidemic medical expert team arrived in Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), on Tuesday for a three-month mission to support the Central African country's response to the #Ebola outbreak.
Luku Maleyo Marius, a representative of the DRC Ministry of Health, welcomed the team at the airport, saying that China's dispatch of the medical experts represents timely and strong support for the Congolese government and people.
Lu Ming, head of the Chinese expert team, said the team would begin work promptly in line with the Congolese side's needs and would cooperate with local medical and disease control institutions to provide support in epidemic assessment, case management, and other areas.
Having supported Africa through past outbreaks (2014, 2015 & 2018), China continues its 70-year tradition of standing with African brothers and sisters through thick and thin.

The young people of this country are the ones that will save this country. Once we return to the values of meritocracy in public service, such talent will not go to waste.
