We look back at the life changing experiences, take stock and plan a decade ahead. @duda_zoghbi @wkamkwamba @RockefellerFdn

Next week I'm doing exactly this at kenya Airways.. Tell me why a salary of 350,000ksh..inanifikia ikiwa 237,668.14ksh..aaah can't anymore

@amenya_nelson All the years you spent with Prophet Owuor, you did not see Machakos University in a vision? Wafuasi weni kwani wanatoka wapi?

There’s a university called machakos?

Am impressed by the new look of my alma mater @multimedia_uni . Hapa maisha ilikuwa safi, challenges tu ya comrade Thumbs up to the leadership.

🚨 OFFICIAL: Southampton have been EXPELLED from the Championship play-offs. Middlesbrough will now be the finalists against Hull City on Saturday at Wembley as Southampton have admitted to multiple breaches of filming other clubs’ training.

@Betamosi01 @IanECox @KenyaAirways Except for the fact that you still allow the likes of Suluhu to dictate you.

@IanECox @KenyaAirways Tanzanians we relate to both, except for the political ideologies.

There are few African countries with three cities that @KenyaAirways serves directly. Zambia is one of them, with direct flights to Ndola, Lusaka, and Livingstone. And thankfully so, because Kenya 🇰🇪 and Zambia 🇿🇲 are two countries that should have been neighbors. I highly recommend the people of both countries to engage more and as much as possible. They are brothers.

@IanECox @beth_kasinga @KenyaAirways This could easily be 4 towns considering KQ can drop you in Lilongwe then take a 2hr drive to Chipata.

@IanECox I think ISM Containers are the ones doing the structures

Who is doing these BASIC shopping centers in Kenya? They are great.. fit in well in neighborhoods, nice design, high quality tenets. Are they a Quickmart innovation?

Nairobi, final reflections. Despite Nairobi being a haven of NGO work, impact funds, climate workshops and every species of grant funded virtue, one hears far less of the heavy socialist sermonising that so often drifts through Southern Africa. Why is that? I didn’t find a Karl Marx road as we did in Maputo…. Perhaps Kenya’s commercial bloodstream is simply too strong. Nairobi may host the NGO cathedral, but outside its stained glass windows the city is hustling: traders, founders, developers, agents, boda boda, financiers, exporters, coders and small businessmen all trying to make a shilling before the next traffic jam. The traffic jams here in the middle of high traffic and rain are extortion writ large. But the uber driver earning thrice the fee wasn’t complaining. Nor should we, but the wait time at a restaurant can stretch up to two hours, with the usual retort of “I’m almost there” serving as a signal to order the next dawa. The intellectual mood in Nairobi is softened by enterprise. Even the social impact crowd seems more likely to speak the language of scale, platforms, mobile money and market access than nationalisation, redistribution and state led salvation. Southern Africa, by contrast, still carries a heavier liberation era grammar. Politics there often begins with the state, the party, the struggle and the promise that history owes someone something. Nairobi feels more impatient with that theatre. It has its own dysfunctions, certainly, but its instinct is more transactional, more entrepreneurial, more “where is the opportunity?” than “where is the manifesto?” That may be why, even in a city full of NGOs, capitalism still manages to keep the microphone. I like it here….

@Sir__Marvin @cbs_ke Where will the 240 volts come from in the car?

@cbs_ke Hapo mbele inafaa waeke naked wire inactivate na button Kwa steering, jamaa akikuja kuing'oa anapigwa na 240 volts wengine wanahepa

Solution is here. Toyota Harrier Grill solution from Vandalism. Kenyans are very creative.

WOMEN HATE WEAKNESS IN MEN. Weakness in a man awakens a lethal weapon in a woman put in her by Nature to punish weak men. That’s why they have no choice but to respect STRENGTH on a man

@nypost I agree that she is beautiful, but casting a Black woman to play a White woman in a foundational work of European literature is no more right than casting a White man to play Shaka Zulu!

For the first time in history, they are putting in the work, hustling like other Kenyans and putting their businesses out there. No more free money from Minnesota.

🇨🇳 Chinese car tech is getting harder to dismiss. The West spent decades laughing at Chinese cars. That era is over.

@AsianDawn4 Black is a term used to refer to the people of Sub Sahara descent. The person alleged to be black here is not black and looks more of Aboriginal and the oceania region descent.

🇦🇺🇹🇭 Incident at Epping Station, Sydney: A Thai teen was on his way to music practice with two other friends. A black man randomly started kicking the Thai teen's equipment. The teen tried his best to avoid physical confrontation but ended up fighting in the end. Police arrived soon after and placed the black man under arrest.

KTN yafichua kuingizwa kwa siri kwa zaidi ya tani 60,000 za mafuta yasiyokidhi viwango nchini, yaliyosambazwa kwa kampuni kuu za mafuta. #KTNLeo

This angle is disgraceful, we were robbed. Pablo is literally being wrestled, not to mention the other fouls from Arsenal players there. VAR is a plague to the beautiful game, so sick of inconsistent biased officiating.

West Ham have 2 options tomorrow, let Arsenal win the league and get relegated OR beat them, stay up AND become everyone’s favorite small team. Choose wisely @WestHam

@kenyagossips How does this help the environment? We have normalised nonesense as a country.... kibiwot planted 23k trees in 24 hrs...no state recognition...

I love young people
