Well well, the deficit is artificial or created intentionally by the gatekeepers. The biggest challenge for Kenya is the system that tries to gatekeep the knowledge pipeline. I have examples of many Kenyans who try to do Masters and PhDs, and they get frustrated by the supervisors until they give up. Example 1: Friend A started his PhD in Kenya, his supervisor frustrated him, and in the end, he gave up and enrolled afresh in South Africa. He finished his PhD in South Africa in record time. Example 2: Friend B did her master's at UoN, finished the coursework, but when it came to research, she could not move because the supervisor refused to accept every topic she suggested and did not have time to guide her on what to do. She is still waiting to start the research three years down the line. Example 3: Go to any university in Kenya in the run-up to graduation and see how many people are lining up in the department and registrar offices, then moving away cussing because of the missing marks. It is really a messed-up system.

Are you between 22 and 35 years old and passionate about making a difference through public office in Kenya, but lack the resources to launch your campaign? If you’re from Narok, Kajiado, Samburu, Laikipia, or Marsabit counties and hold a degree in Political Science, Communication, Social Development, or Finance, I’d love to connect with you. Let’s walk this journey together and explore how we can turn your leadership vision into reality. Drop me an Email. Narokbiz2019@gmail.com

Uzbekistondaki Tojmahal😍

Mazrui family still run Mombasa till date

John F. Kennedy was one of America's best speechwriters, and his secret weapon was a rhetorical trick called Chiasmus. Some examples: 1) "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." 2) "Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind." 3) "Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate." All of these follow the same pattern. The lesson is that humans love symmetry. Both in buildings like the Taj Mahal or St. Paul's Cathedral, and with language when we have symmetrical sentences like the ones JFK used to use so often.

@_TesTai_ Olympics na IAAF World Athletics huwa nimezingoja sana. A very loyal fan.

You have such niche interests. You're the reason I discovered classical music (and got roasted for it😂).

Mondo Duplantis is definitely one of the greatest athletes alive. Up there with Kipchoge, Messi, CR7, Bolt, LeBron and Serena. He's absolutely in this elite tier of active athletes. He has dominated pole vaulting at an almost absurd level.

@Chalbiwsk 😂😂😂😂😆 He's a good musulman. Wachana na Onyango wewe.

reminds me of that jaluo dude who is always posting muslim restaurants 😭😭😭😭

@CuchulainKE It's a feature, not a bug... unfortunately. Hii maneno ya majamaa suddenly becoming too clever wakiskia miradi huko Kavirondo ama NE runs deep. Niliona mpaka kina Muite.

@Asaphjay @walubengovich Waziri wa Mafuta wa Oman youtu.be/SgJ1DrMDULM?si…

@Asaphjay @walubengovich Can't remember whether it was the Omani Minister for Trade or the Ambassador to Kenya, but the dude was speaking flawlessly in Kiswahili on a state visit. Kiswahili Sanifu. Saw a similar video from Tz during Magufuli's rule.

Is the Omani Foreign Minister descended from the Al-Busaidi family? The same dynasty that historically ruled parts of the Swahili Coast? The bitter foes of the Mazruis? Hawa sasa ndio old money.

@elvo_sultan_ @YunglePever They were just a few journal articles (available on JSTOR btw). Just login to JSTOR and type "Sultan Qaboos".

@FourthArchetype @YunglePever You are reading from which sources ??

@SonOfKurgat I've checked na ninaona pia huko Namibia na Botswana mtindo ni ule ule. the Ovambo, Kavango, and Caprivi are concentrated in areas along the Okavango and Zambezi rivers. In Botswana, the Tswana are concentrated in the eastern corridor in the Okavango Delta and Chobe Reserve.

@SonOfKurgat Botswana and Namibia might be the only exceptions

They should start bleaching and stop looking like jareers

@SonOfKurgat They actually live in the most fertile parts of Somalia. Rare Bantu W.

@FourthArchetype How did they even get there

Kemei, Keino, Nyamai and Nyang'au being common boy names feels like trolling. 😂😂

@spicedliver Hapa approval rating ya mzee iko through the roof.

Older gent tunahandle dispute yake, after proceedings anauliza kama nimeoa, ju kwake kuna girls. 😂😂.

@SonOfKurgat Wako. They call them Jareers.

@FourthArchetype Really? I didn't know there were bantus in Somalia

Dude really did a full rebrand. From a Hadzabe bushman to a Fano rebel overnight.

@YunglePever Interesting. I'll read up on Oman. I've only interacted with limited literature on Sultan Qaboos's modernization reforms.

@FourthArchetype Yup. They've never left power and have been since 1700s. The current Sultan is a Busaidi.
