If you scored a B+ or lower in your KCSE and wish to pursue a marketable course, avoid selecting the University of Nairobi as one of your top choices. Competition for competitive programmes at UoN is extremely high. If your first and second choices are both UoN, you risk not being admitted to the university at all and may instead be placed in your last-choice programme.To increase your chances of securing a good course, consider universities located outside Nairobi, particularly those in remote or less competitive regions. These institutions generally have lower cut-off points and less intense competition for placement.

@Origidennis1993 @madam_CX5 Joluo mosomo onge Kenya?

@madam_CX5 En behavior mar jaluo anyway. Iyudo ka kabinde Moko ndiko jogegi e tich nyaka ngat makia ndiko but kochop kuom jaluo to kwayi nyaka diploma e tich mar ywecho. Mar Babuno to odwakalo kiew.

I am very disappointed in the one Babu owino. Saying he will make sure Gaucho goes home is not my problem. My problem is the platform he said it. Like who is Babu trying to please? After firing Gaucho uweke nani? Njoroge ama Njeri? Omera politics mar Kenya en tribal and if you want to play otherwise it'll be the first time darkness will encompass you. Disappointed !!

@Dreamville2022 @NjorogeMwalimu @ggiste @GitauJuniour @KRACare Issue is pin. How did the school get his pin?

@NjorogeMwalimu @ggiste @GitauJuniour The school issued an eTims receipt, the bloke in question is filling nil returns meaning no income.....so where did the 185,000 he paid come from then? This is what @KRACare want to know! Kila mtu alipe ushuru, broaden the tax burden.

Yesterday I had an interesting experience I was trying to file returns for a certain individual He was confident that he will file nill returns We logged in on his itax account Mimi huyo mpaka pale kwa NIL returns Buana unaclick Iyo kitu ya NIL KRA wanakwambia you have expenses you need to declare😂😂 Nauliza jamaa yangu. Rada…. Kwani kuna biashara ulifanya juu KRA inasema uko na expenses za Kshs. 185,000 Jamaaa tried thinking…. Aaaaaai anasema hapana. Yeye hana official business na zile yeye hufanya ni Biashara mwecheche hustling hapa na pale😂 Iyo kitu ikanishinda. I called a contact kwa hapo watu wa Haille Sellasie. Nikamuuliza Kwani hii kitu yenyu haikubali NIL returns juu jomba hapa hana Biashara na Hii kitu inasema ako na Kshs. 185,000 as expenses😂 Jamaa ikaniammbia nimpee few minutes. After few minutes. Akanicall. Akaniambia niulize jomba kama analipanga school fees xx school😂😂 Jamaaa akaniambia…. eeeeh watoto wanasoma huko. At first he thought he was telling me something interesting 🤨 Then my guy told me… “Hakuna mtu analipa school fees ya Kshs. 185,000 per year na hana kazi ama biashara. Sasa KRA inataka atueleze mahali Iyo pesa ilitoka” Wueeeeh sini mbaya.. This is what happened When Jomba paid school fees. The school recorded it as an income and issued an eTIMS receipt. This automatically updated in KRA backend system that the school has received an income and that’s an expense to whoever who paid it. So KRA wants to understand huyu mtu hana kazi, hana biashara is surviving how in Nairobi. Kama ni savings as you all would claim.. hii savings unatoa wapi kila mwaka😂 Buana KRA wametunasa. Alafu they are not doing this to everyone. First they are using Ai to monitor transactions you do everyday using mobile or banking platforms. So in this case they notice you have payments you are making. They then deploy Ai to analyze your mobile and banking expenses. Jomba Wangu runs a hardware and workshop. Mpesa transactions zake unaona zinagonga upto 500k per month.. Lakini walimshikia pale kwa school fees. Wale wako na corporate pins ndio wana feel the heat… Sahii kufanya biashara bila eTIMS ni blunder🥹

@Finance_501 As a founder, he is certainly conflicted.

More companies are adopting the use of AI technologies in their processes. But what exactly should an entry-mid level finance professional understand about use of AI in Finance, especially in Africa? Share your thoughts below👇

@YoursTiti @vheeorji22 A lot.

@vheeorji22 Could there be a need for a data analyst in the education sector? That's where I look forward to mostly.

Which industry would you most want to work in as a data analyst? A. Finance B. Healthcare C. Tech D. Business / Retail

@OEnzoveli Anyway, personally, what moved me to homeschooling was a book I read about the physiological development of children and the consequences of early academics to long-term health. I just wanted to add that context as I log out of the convo. Enjoy your weekend.

@OEnzoveli If one has been called a name, it's me... aka "neoliberal." I just wish people could live and let live. Can't believe that I must take my child to a terrible system, which I had ZERO role in creating, & minimal leverage to change, because they must suffer with the rest.

Eti homeschooling is African I swear mnasema tu vitu our ancestors who used to walk miles to share and learn things homeschooling is basically a parent limiting the child which is a class indicator education is social as well as a political exercise it is not neo liberal beloved

@OEnzoveli Are you a socialist? Because the same arguments can be used to guilt-trip even parents who take their kids to private schools...

@JeffKatieno Good because the child will still be affected one way or the other because they still have to live in Kenya MD deal with what comes after

@zakheem_rajan Belinda deserved it.

BREAKING NEWS: JSC nominates 24 High Court and 13 Environment and Land Court judges. They now await appointment by the President.

@OEnzoveli You also skipped several qstions. Anyway, idealism does not a sick child cure. When a boat is sinking, U can't insist that what I do must benefit evryone else..can't shoot corrupt bureaucrats to make a system work. I will use every coin 4 the urgency, whatever "ism" ...

@JeffKatieno You are jumping over the reason why it is dysfunctional in the first place that is where the issue is again you cannot personal responsibility your way out of social and political and structural issue and no amount of money will should you hiyo ni neo liberalism at work

@OEnzoveli Assuming healthcare provision is a social responsibility, would you insist on taking your children to a dysfunctional public hospital because you must use an avenue that works for all of society?

@JeffKatieno Only for parents who could afford it and that was for the high ranking members of those societies not the commoner the rest would apprentice under someone and even that one was not cheap personal responsibility a social problem does not work or is a neo liberal ideology

@OEnzoveli Hiring tutors to teach children was in vogue much earlier in Europe, China, and several other areas before anyone knew there would be a country known as US. I suspect you don't have proof on the racial origins of homeschooling in the US, so no need to even comment.

@JeffKatieno Just like CBC that was imported without context and considerations & without any research going to it homeschooling from what I have seen & heard in Kenya is using the American model and actually in its roots it was bcz white Americans didn't want their children studying with AA

@OEnzoveli 1. Do U think exprts teaching apprentices and stdnts moving 2 seek different sources was exclusively African? 2. Do U think the same mdl is necessary now, when one can interact with Noam Chomsky thr a podcast or a bk? 3. IF it has American roots, does that make it bad ab initio

@JeffKatieno It is not African it is an American import African education relied on experts teaching apprentices and it was done by one moving about and gaining knowledge and expertise from different sources

@_TheSmallAxe @TuJadili @wmnjoya There are those who try to change things and fail. There are those who persevere regardless of the cost and without any hopeful sign on the horizon. I guess We are built differently.

@JeffKatieno @TuJadili @wmnjoya But that's part of the problem she has addressed. Running away from problems - who is coming to correct the wrongs that need to be corrected if not us in thelat system? For how long will we run away in the name of each their own?

Homeschooling came from the American evangelical movement after desegregation of public schools in the 1960s, where white parents didn't want their kids learning with black kids. And this is the confusion of Kenyans about education. Even TVET, which we call "practical," was designed to teach black people to remain semi-skilled and at the bottom of the economic hierarchy. Even parental involvement in CBC came from American evangelical "family values," that blamed black American men for broken families while ignoring the high incarceration rates. You cannot run away from education problems with private solutions. Education is a social good. But middle class Kenyans have a stunted social consciousness, that's why they can't understand that problem. #FixingthenationNTV

@TuJadili @wmnjoya Public problems, you say... some of us gave up flogging a dead horse... Let us explore other options. To each his own.

@JeffKatieno @wmnjoya Context matters. How many middle class Kenyans were homeschooling during Moi administration? The trend has increased because of middle class Kenyans who are trying to run away from the CBC. Private solutions to public problems won’t work

@XivTroy Seems like a BBC spin, not accurate remarks.
