The slogan “wantam” could be considered coded hate speech. The bile and toxicity of its speakers are a radical departure from Kenya’s political discourse. None of the previous two incumbents were subjected to such unfathomable calumny.

Only your mother can tell you who your father is .Only a father can bless his children. That father is the man who pays your mothers dowry,not that man who spent his life galavanting in new clubs while your step father raised you . we are telling young people your biological father has zero say in the ancestor's court ,they dnt know him his words mean less than "hatuwezi ishi bila power" .

This is why the finish at the LA marathon was so close👇🏼 Michael Kamau of Kenya was not only impeded by a female holding a Kenya flag, but the motorcade led him the wrong way, causing American Nathan Martin to eventually catch up & win by .01 seconds

This man rose to fame thanks to Robert Alai because of a talent nobody asked for and nobody can explain,, throwing ugali into the air and catching it with the aggression of Majembe the boxer. The internet couldn’t look away. Just like that, Ugali Man was born. He landed a deal worth 10 million with Odibet because of course, if you can gamble with gravity, you can gamble with odds. Then, in a masterclass of audacity, the legend launched a Facebook page called “FITNESS TIPS BY UGALI MAN.” Fitness where? Tips for who? By which definition of fitness? Because nothing on that page has ever been in the same room as a treadmill. His daily routine is painfully consistent: Remove shirt, Stare directly into the camera like it owes him money, Cook industrial quantities of ugali enough to feed a construction site on overtime. Zero editing of his videos, zero shame, zero growth strategy. He records everything on his phone like evidence for a future court case. No cuts, no angles, no mercy. Just raw footage and raw carbohydrates. After cooking, he lines up his children like it’s a World Food Programme distribution. Each one receives a tectonic plate of ugali, and together they eat with the urgency of people who’ve been told the planet explodes in 10 minutes. Plates shaking, Silence & Determination. Everyone appears in his videos including his puss cat but the wife rarely appears eating on camera with them. That woman knows the husband is a mumu man. Now here’s the real gist, Ugali Man does NOT read comments. You can advise.l, You can warn, You can quote doctors, nutritionists, personal trainers, even ancestors. He does not care. The next day, he shows up shirtless again, cooks an even bigger mountain of ugali, stares into the camera like a villain monologue, and eats it with pride. When Comments come screaming, He responds with more ugali. This is not a fitness page, this is a starch resistance movement. This is carbohydrate defiance. This is a man at war with dietary guidelines and winning. Welcome to Fitness Tips by Ugali Man,,, where the only thing getting exercised is the jaw and the audacity. Kama kawa sisi walala hoii hatuna maoni, Letu Jicho tu.👀

@brook_timbe When you ask an Ethiopia where they come from they’ll say Habeshia. That other name is as colonial as Kenya/Tanzania —- what do they even mean

Just published: our study on food safety practices in smallholder dairying shows adoption is strongly linked to value-chain participation + farmer & market dynamics & farm conditions. Better incentives + One Health can drive safer milk. doi.org/10.1016/j.oneh… cc @niNyokabi

@yoDisNats If only 30% has been discovered, how did they estimated the undiscovered 70%? He should just admit the majority of pyramids and their true origins is Sudan

@OswardMussa Here the assumption is that in a free market a competitor (Kenya) will not have strategic response to decisions by the other party. Or that efficiencies end at the port. Inland logistics of the goods, IMO, offer the biggest incentive. Distance being a non-negotiable factor

🚨𝐁𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐲𝐨 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐓𝐚𝐧𝐳𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐊𝐞𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐚𝐬 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚’𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐆𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐭 The revival of Tanzania’s Bagamoyo Port project marks one of the most consequential shifts in East Africa’s maritime landscape in decades. For years, Kenya’s Mombasa Port has enjoyed unrivaled dominance as the region’s logistical backbone, serving Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, South Sudan, eastern DRC and even parts of northern Tanzania. But the emergence of Bagamoyo, designed as a deep-sea megaport with cutting-edge capacity, poses a structural threat that could erode Mombasa’s influence and redirect regional trade southward. Strategically located along Tanzania’s coastline, Bagamoyo will be capable of handling ultra-large container vessels that Mombasa’s shallower berths simply cannot accommodate without extensive dredging. With planned depths of around 20 meters and space for up to 28 berths, the port is positioned to become the largest and most modern facility in East Africa. This alone shifts the competitive ground: shipping lines prefer ports that offer deeper berths, faster turnaround times, and direct access for large vessels, thereby reducing operational costs. Bagamoyo’s scale could therefore attract vessels that currently bypass East Africa due to infrastructural limitations. Mombasa has long struggled with congestion both in its port channels and its hinterland connections. Truck queues, vessel delays, and high handling fees have plagued operations, resulting in unpredictable lead times. Despite Kenya’s investments, including the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), inefficiencies remain. In contrast, Bagamoyo is being designed as an integrated logistics ecosystem from the ground up: a deep-sea port, a vast Special Economic Zone (SEZ), expanded road and rail corridors, and industrial parks all linked seamlessly. This enables “port-to-factory-to-market” flow without bottlenecks, attracting manufacturers seeking export-ready infrastructure. If completed as planned, Bagamoyo could siphon off a significant percentage of regional transit cargo currently flowing through Mombasa. Countries like Rwanda, Burundi, and eastern DRC already rely heavily on Dar es Salaam Port; Bagamoyo’s superior efficiency would accelerate this shift. Even Ugandalong, considered Mombasa’s anchor client, may find it economically attractive to diversify through Tanzania, especially with the Central Corridor’s ongoing upgrades. For landlocked states, cost and reliability matter more than historical reliance. Tanzania’s improving transport corridors threaten to redraw these trade loyalties. From a security and geopolitical standpoint, losing port dominance weakens Kenya’s influence in the region. Mombasa Port has long served as Kenya’s economic engine and diplomatic leverage. Control over transit routes has given Nairobi bargaining power in regional politics and integration processes. If major cargo volumes migrate south, Kenya risks diminishing relevance in East African Community (EAC) negotiations, customs unions, and infrastructure planning. Economic strength and geopolitical weight are inseparable; Bagamoyo’s success directly challenges Kenya’s strategic posture. Additionally, Bagamoyo’s scale invites global competition that could reshape regional power dynamics. China’s involvement, whether through financing, construction, or long-term concessions, signals that the port could become a major node in global supply chains, linking Africa more directly into Asian and Middle Eastern trade networks. For Tanzania, this elevates its maritime footprint and strategic value. For Kenya, it complicates its historical alignment with Western partners and regional allies, as trade routes shift under external influence. Economically, losing dominance in the maritime sector creates ripple effects for Kenya. The Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) relies heavily on Mombasa’s revenues, and thousands of jobs depend on port operations, trucking, warehousing, and clearing services. A decline in cargo volumes would harm coastal economies and reduce government income. Exporters and importers may begin demanding lower fees or better incentives, which could pressure Kenya to accommodate, as fixed operational costs remain high. Tanzania, on the other hand, stands to gain immensely. Bagamoyo strengthens its aspiration to become the region’s primary trade gateway. Combined with the modernization of Dar es Salaam Port and growth at Tanga Port, Tanzania will soon possess a diversified and resilient maritime network unmatched in the region. For investors, this signals stability and redundancy: even if one port faces congestion or security issues, alternatives exist within the same country. Few African nations offer such strategic depth. Moreover, Bagamoyo’s SEZ could spark industrialization on a scale that transforms Tanzania’s economic profile. Manufacturers, logistics firms, and processing industries are drawn to ports that guarantee efficiency and reduced export costs. As industries cluster around Bagamoyo, Tanzania’s export capacity will rise, strengthening the shilling, expanding employment, and increasing government revenue. This industrial corridor could rival or surpass Kenya’s coastal economic belt. In sum, Bagamoyo Port represents more than a new maritime facility. It is a geopolitical pivot that threatens Kenya’s long-held maritime supremacy and positions Tanzania as the next regional powerhouse. While Kenya may retain relevance through Mombasa’s historical ties and existing infrastructure, the strategic tide is shifting. As shipping lines, investors, and regional governments look for efficiency, cost reduction, and long-term certainty, Bagamoyo offers a compelling alternative. If Tanzania executes this vision effectively, it will not only capture trade, but it will capture influence. Bagamoyo may very well become the port that reshapes East Africa’s economic map.
