Fortunately, I can call many of Gen. Muhoozi’s people my friends; @AndrewMwenda @kasujja @qataharraymond, etc, all very brilliant people. could you please be honest enough to tell him he cannot fight corruption while abusing processes, while undermining institutions, while openly and publicly appointing speakers and deputy speakers of parliament, while fronting people that have also been involved in the same corruption you’re praising him for fighting. Thank you 🙏

I do not celebrate Safaricom’s massive profits. To me, the numbers tell a painful story about how deeply Africa still mistakes extraction for success.

Many Kenyans are applauding the company’s results and congratulating Peter Ndegwa and Safaricom. But sometimes a crowd can dance to the very song that is emptying its own pockets.

Safaricom Kenya reported hundreds of billions in revenue and over KES 100 billion in profit. That is an enormous margin for a service company. Most businesses struggle to make even a fraction of that. Yet people celebrate it as though every shilling stays here and builds the nation.

But we must ask deeper questions.

How much of that wealth truly remains in Kenya?
How much is reinvested into industries that create long term independence?
How much flows out quietly, year after year, like a river feeding another land?

A large share of the profits goes to foreign shareholders through dividends. Billions leave the country in dollars while ordinary Kenyans work harder every day just to survive rising costs.

It is like drawing water from a village well every morning, only for the biggest bucket to be carried away to another kingdom before the villagers can drink.

And this is what troubles me most.

Safaricom touches almost every corner of Kenyan life. From the mama mboga in the village to the boda rider in the slum, millions use its services daily. Small amounts collected from millions of struggling people become mountains of profit at the top.

Meanwhile, many local industries remain weak, underfunded, or dead altogether.

The painful irony is that Africans are often taught to celebrate foreign dominated corporations as symbols of progress, while homegrown industries are neglected or mocked. Yet nations become powerful by building and protecting their own economic engines.

No country becomes wealthy simply by being a marketplace for others.

True economic freedom is not just about using modern services or posting impressive profit figures. It is about ownership. It is about control. It is about ensuring the sweat of citizens waters their own soil first before enriching distant shores.

The concern is not that Safaricom is successful. Success is good.

The concern is whether Kenya is becoming a tree whose fruits are harvested elsewhere while its own people sit in the shade hungry.

That is the conversation many avoid.

Because colonialism today rarely arrives with soldiers and flags. Sometimes it arrives wearing a suit, carrying investment papers, speaking the language of opportunity, while quietly building pipelines that move wealth outward.

And unless Africans begin building and defending strong local industries, we may continue celebrating numbers that look impressive on paper while the foundation beneath us slowly weakens.

Since the past 24 hours that I made the tweet on child parenting solution, my DM has been buzzing. I checked them, and one thing was quite common to all: Parents who are not happy about their kid’s performance in school, and they have approached it the wrong way.

If you fall in this category, this post is for you.

Many of us use brutal force because expectations are too high, and the anger is just too much. The scholar Ibn al-Jawzi explained in his book Sayd al-Khatir that intellect is a Rizq (provision) from God, just like money or health.

He said some people are born with a wide vessel and others with a narrow one. If you try to force the water of a whole sea into a small cup, you will only spill the water and ruin the cup. This is what many of us are doing. We are trying to force a "doctor's brain" into a child whose cup was designed for something else.

By that, it causes a soul-crushing resentment in the child. Imam Al-Ghazali described this beautifully in Ihya’ Ulum al-Din. He warned parents about a state called “Al-Malal”, where a child builds resentment because they are pushed beyond their limit. Everyone wants the best for their child. No doubt. However, if you keep yelling at them for things they cannot grasp yet, you make them hate the very sight of a book. You are closing the door to their heart while trying to kick open the door to their mind.

Then what is the solution? It is simple.

Going forward, every parent should make efforts to start looking for the Fath (the opening) in their kids. What does this mean? This is the lane the Almighty has prepared for them. In our history, if a child is slow with grammar or math, the scholars don’t call them a failure. They move them to a trade, a craft or a service.

How then do you identify this Fath (Opening) in your child? Please pay close attention to me…

(1) The first phase is Observation. Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned a concept called Istid’ad (natural readiness) in his book titled: Tuhfat al-Mawdud. This means you want to watch/observe/look at the child when they think nobody is looking. This is your first tool. For the next two weeks, stop talking about school. Do not worry yourself about how they perform on their homework.

Instead, keep a "Strength Log." Every evening, write down one thing they did well that had nothing to do with a classroom. Did they fix a broken toy? Did they calm down a crying sibling? Did they organise their shoes? You are looking for their Istid’ad (natural readiness). If they are "book-slow" but "people-smart" or "hand-smart," that is where the key has been placed.

(2) Introduce “Project or Craft” early on. Ibn Khaldun, in his Muqaddimah, argued that projects/crafts are high forms of intelligence that build civilizations. He argued that some minds are designed to understand the physical world better than the abstract one.

Give them a "Project Day." Buy a basic tool kit, a sewing machine, or a coding starter kit. Give them a broken radio or a piece of furniture to fix. Delegate. Give them a real-world task that has a visible result. When a child who fails at math sees that they can build a table or bake a perfect loaf of bread, their internal shame starts to heal. They realize they are not stupid; they were just in the wrong room.

(3) Kill the Comparison Virus. Imam Al-Zarnuji, in his classic work Ta’lim al-Muta’allim, explained that a student should only study what fits their nature. He said that forcing a student into a field they have no taste for is a waste of their life and the teacher's time. When you compare your child to others, you are catching a virus that blinds you to their path. Always filter.

When family members start bragging about their kids' grades, you must be the shield. Tell them, "My child is mastering the art of (so so and so)." You are teaching your child that success is not a single ladder. There are many ladders to it. And if you do not value their ladder, they will stop climbing.

(4) Prioritize Character Building. Put more efforts to praise your kids for their good character. Always tell them you love them when they behave well or show good character. Character recognition helps the child build a good self-image, which translates into self-confidence and barrier-breaking for the child. Prioritise this.

(5) Don’t underestimate the power of your words. Always pray to God to grant them their opening. The scholars taught that the "opening" is a gift from Al-Fattah (The Opener). Supplicate.

In your Sujud or in your prayers, stop asking for them to be a doctor/engineer, and what have you. Ask for the door that was made for them to be opened. Ask Him to show you the Fath so you can stop pushing them against a closed wall.

Always remember, a parent who finds the "Fath (The Opening)" for their child has given them a gift better than a degree. You have given them a purpose. Start that journey NOW. It’s never too late…

Thank you for your attention.

Allah knows best.

#LEGALALERT.
#Special damages
The High Court has re-affirmed the fact that strict proof of special damages does not necessarily require “documentary evidence,” as the fact can also be established through expert testimony or evidence from the persons who received the money.

[Nabimanya Julius @KatushabeJulius]

Also, the @JudiciaryUG needs to live by what they preach. You cannot be fostering reconciliation and Alternative Dispute Resolution, vehemently selling it to the members of the public and yet there has failed to be an intentional and meaningful reconciliation of a cross-institutional dispute between the two most important organs that oversee the Rule of Law and Administration of Justice in the country.

Why is Mr. Ssemakade still in exile over an issue that can be resolved through ADR that the Judiciary is very much advocating for? Why are the Law Society concerns to the Judiciary not being addressed either through the Courts or ADR?

How can the public have confidence in the vehement calls for ADR if the two institutions at the centre of dispute resolution cannot resolve a cross-institutional dispute through ADR? Still, we should all be ashamed. We are Learned people, not politicians!
