Covering up the death of Netanyahu would require a conspiracy involving, at a minimum, hundreds of people in Israel and thousands more globally.
It would require the silence or active participation of intelligence agencies in countries that are openly hostile or adversarial toward Israel — states that would have every strategic incentive to expose such a cover-up immediately.
The idea that all of these people would coordinate perfectly and maintain total secrecy defies logic.
It is effectively impossible.

For those fools/liars who say it is racist to require ID to vote (it obviously is not), why do majority Black countries require ID to vote?

Nearly everyone on the planet agrees that you need to show an ID and demonstrate that you are a citizen to be able to vote in an election, including predominantly Black countries. It was never racist to ask for an ID to vote. You would only oppose it if you want to cheat.

Today, while driving to Karen via James Gichuru Road and later using Southern Bypass on my way back, one thing became clear. Our problem is not just unroadworthy vehicles. We have a massive crisis of indiscipline and a completely broken system.
Driver licences are clearly being sold. Most road carnage and accidents are a direct result of lack of basic knowledge and total disregard for road rules. On Southern Bypass, about 90% of vehicles, including trucks and slow-moving traffic, were hogging the fast lane, while overtaking was happening on the left. Absolute madness.
Bodas make the situation even worse.
@ntsa_kenya , you should be ashamed of yourselves. This country is a mess, and the loss of lives is squarely on your hands due to incompetence and corruption. Our roads have truly become death traps. Thereafter getting to red-hill turn off you find a lane blocked by Matatus and Bodas crossing over a busy road. Honestly this is pathetic and you talk about speed limiters when you cannot fix a basic problem.

gemini 3 just made every $15k ai consultant look like a clown
google silent-dropped autonomous agents to 650 million users yesterday
what consultants charge $15K and 6 weeks to "implement" now takes 4 minutes on a phone
here's what actually changed:
the model:
→ plans multi-step workflows autonomously
→ executes start to finish with zero hand-holding
→ optimized for non-experts (no CS degree needed)
→ already live on mobile canvas feature
while "AI agencies" are charging $8k-20k for strategy decks, google just deployed real automation to more people than chatgpt's entire user base
the intelligence gap is getting stupid:
that consultant billing $200/hr to "set up AI workflows" → the app does it autonomously now
that agency charging $15k for "custom AI implementation" → built in 4 minutes on gemini 3 mobile
that bootcamp selling "learn AI automation" for $2k → obsolete before the course launched
some startup just replaced their $18k/month AI consulting retainer with a free app
same output. 4 minute setup. zero technical knowledge required.
most businesses still think AI automation needs:
- 6 month roadmaps
- technical teams
- consulting firms
- $50k+ budgets
reality: it needs a phone and 4 minutes
your competition doesn't know this exists yet
but they will
comment "GEMINI" and i'll send you the breakdown of how to use this before everyone figures it out

KOIGI WA WAMWERE. THE MAN WHO REFUSED TO DIE;
Today on rewriting history, I'll share with you about a man rarely talked about in the history of Kenya’s 2nd Liberation. A man detained And tortured like no other.
Koigi wa Wamwere’s life reads like a long letter of courage, resilience, and unbroken spirit. Born in 1949 in Nakuru, he grew up seeing the injustices of colonial land policies and came to believe that independence without true freedom was an illusion. From his early political days, Koigi chose the hard road, standing up to power, demanding justice, and speaking truth when silence was safer.
As a young MP for Nakuru North in 1979, he quickly became one of Kenya’s boldest voices against corruption, tribal politics, and dictatorship. He wasn’t afraid to question presidents, challenge land injustices, and demand democracy at a time when such words could cost you your freedom, or your life. His story is one of Kenya’s true second liberators.
But courage came at a heavy price. On 9th August 1975, Koigi was arrested and detained without trial under Jomo Kenyatta’s government. He spent over three years in detention, only to be released on 12th December 1978, the day Kenya celebrated independence, ironically without freedom for one of its bravest sons.
Barely four years later, on 5th August 1982, he was arrested again, this time by the Moi regime, and detained until 12th December 1984. His only crime,refusing to be silenced.
In October 1990, Koigi was taken to the infamous Nyayo House torture chambers, where he was held for 11 days (8th–19th October). He was stripped naked, beaten, starved, and locked in cold, flooded cells,an attempt to break his body and spirit. He survived.
From there, he was moved to Kamiti Maximum Prison, where he spent over two years (October 1990-January 1993) in harsh, inhumane conditions among death row inmates. But even behind bars, his pen spoke,he continued to write, to dream, and to believe in a freer Kenya.
Then came another dark chapter. In November 1993, Koigi was arrested again, this time falsely accused of robbery with violence,a charge many believed was politically motivated. In 1995, he was sentenced to four years in prison and six strokes of the cane. The world watched in disbelief as Kenya whipped its conscience. He was finally released on 13th December 1996 after sustained international pressure.
Koigi’s body bears the scars of that fight. His health deteriorated, his family suffered, but his faith in justice never died. In 2015, after decades of struggle, Kenya’s Court of Appeal awarded him KSh 12 million in compensation for the torture and inhuman treatment he endured under both the Kenyatta and Moi regimes, a symbolic victory for truth and justice.
Today, Koigi wa Wamwere stands as a living reminder that freedom is never given; it is fought for. He refused to bow, refused to run, and refused to die, choosing instead to keep the fire of democracy burning for future generations.
History may favour the Elites, but we will rewrite it and appreciate the real Heroes of our freedoms.

We are the generation they feared would rise.
The ones who ask questions.
The ones who refuse to be silenced.
The ones who see through their lies.
We are the generation that will expose the corrupt.
We will force them to resign.
We will make them flee.
We will rebuild Kenya; brick by brick, truth by truth.
They had their time.
Now, it’s our time.
A new Kenya is being born, and they can’t stop it.
Spread the message if indeed you believe

@sholard_mancity Road was finished yesterday in Kinoo, Kikuyu. Currently, about 7 roads are ongoing in Kikuyu, all bitumen stand. Whatever one does with this info....
English

I’ve been following the debate on why roads in Mt Kenya seem better than in other parts of Kenya, and some are calling it "Kikuyu privilege."
I know some won’t like this, but here’s how I see it:
It has nothing to do with Kikuyu privilege.
Since devolution began, every county has received funds for development roads, schools, water, etc, for over 10 years.
So ask yourself: what have your county leaders done with that money?
We even have the Equalization Fund to uplift poorer regions. So why are some counties still lagging behind while others are miles ahead?
Look at Murang’a under Irungu Kang’ata, roads everywhere. Then check Kwale or Kakamega, same structure, same access to funds, different outcomes.
The difference is in leadership and priorities.
If "Kikuyu privilege" was the reason, then Rift Valley would be shining by now.
Moi ruled for 24 years, Ruto has been President for 3 yet go see what Turbo or Kosachei look like.
The truth? Mt Kenya tends to elect leaders who deliver.
They may appear loud or controversial in public, but on the ground, they push for roads, water, and schools.
In that region, voters judge performance, not sub-tribe or slogans. You lose an election for failing to deliver, not because of your Kikuyu sub-tribe.
Elsewhere, tribal politics still dominates.
In Kakamega, some vote purely along Isukha/Idakho/Tiriki / Maragoli etc lines.
In North Eastern, it’s clan-based.
When leaders know they’ll win regardless of results, why would they fix roads?
They just come and say, “I’m from your tribe,” and that’s enough.
In other regions, some leaders must prove loyalty to political parties rather than to citizens. For example, in some places , you just have to kneel infront or raila , be a friend of raila and that is it . When election comes they move around telling people to vote for all odm candidates coz that way will be helping baba.
As a result such people know they dont have to win elections . They just have to say baba tosha . And they are many . From homabay , to kilifi etc
Even after 10 years of zero delivery, they’re re-elected because it’s about party loyalty, not performance.
And another thing, most leaders focus on county HQs and capital towns because that’s what visitors see.
That’s why areas near Nairobi and HQs look good while the outskirts are forgotten.
So before rushing to shout "Kikuyu privilege," let’s be honest, the real problem is mindset, priorities, and accountability.
No Kikuyu decides who you elect in your county.
Governors misuse public funds, and we let them.
If we changed how we vote, demanded results over tribe, Kenya would look completely different. 🇰🇪

BTW, always remember:
Parliament is our biggest problem. 🇰🇪
Most current MPs are clueless and will pass laws that hurt all of us, even themselves.
If you care about Kenya, your voice matters: Register to vote.
Tell a friend, who tells another. Change won’t come on its own, we have to make it happen.
This country needs YOU.

The UK doesn’t create anything.
No one wakes up in Shanghai, Lagos, or Dubai thinking: “I need something from Britain.”
Once, this country forged ships, steel, locomotives. Now we export Netflix actors and HR departments.
Finance isn’t real, GDP is smoke.
It’s just numbers about numbers bankers trading made up money for imaginary value.
We don’t build, don’t innovate.
We don’t produce anything the world actually wants or needs.
Meanwhile, the average Brit is told they’re “productive” because they spent 9 hours on a Zoom call about inclusive language while sipping a £4.80 oat milk flat white.
Wake up. Productivity is creation.
If you aren’t building, planting, protecting, or selling you’re just noise.
