The Camera. The photo.

@TeddyJuras Over multiple walks,

@ImWanjohi do you try to knock out an entire roll on one walk or over multiple walks?

@TeddyJuras 💯

@ImWanjohi Photo walks are the best walks

This is what happens when your government allows pesticides banned in Europe and the Americas to be used in Africa. Including Kenya and South Africa.

Today, we reveal that some persons and institutions in Kenya exported 4,892kg of human blood and blood fractions in 2024, according to World Bank data. I’ll attach the evidence in the replies. That’s roughly over 4,600 litres of blood, equivalent to around 9,000-11,000 blood donations of Kenyan blood. The exporters made over $266,000 from these exports. And this is just what was documented; the amounts are likely higher than that. Yet hospitals across the country are facing blood shortages, and every day, Kenyans are on social media desperately looking for blood donors to save lives. This is the part many people don’t know: Blood is not just for transfusions. Plasma and blood fractions are valuable products traded globally for huge amounts of money. So while Kenyans donate blood for free, believing it is purely for saving lives, a huge part of that blood enters a commercial system, and people are making money out of it. That is why I have always argued that blood donors in Kenya should be compensated just like in the US. The rate should be upto 45$. Not just soda and bread. What makes this even worse is the silence around it. The media rarely talks about it because the moment people understand there is money in blood, many will start asking hard questions. Kenyans deserve full transparency on where this blood is going and who is benefiting. Many more revelations are coming. Also, keep in mind the exact data in Kenya is extremely difficult to get, govt will never give you data on who exported the blood, they will take you round in circles.

Something about moody red bathroom tile that just does it for me

The moment Africa gives its local materials full attention by improving skills, knowledge, and craftsmanship, we will have some of the most extraordinary buildings on earth. Questions like “won’t African architecture just be mud?” will fade, because mastering what you have locally means you also learn to use complementary materials; steel, concrete and glass, properly. We haven’t mastered what we abundantly have yet. China has. This is a former bus station in Quanzhou, China. RESP Studio turned it into a meditation retreat, without demolishing what was there. The ancient banyan tree at the centre stayed. Bluestone from the site forms the base. Minnan red brick, the same brick tradition of the region for centuries, defines the walls. Functions were buried underground to reduce visual impact on the forest. They didn’t fight the site. They read it. 📍 Anxi, Quanzhou, China 🇨🇳 🏛 RESP Studio 📷 Xiao Tan
