@SethOlale Unpopular Opinion! We need the Bomas of Kenya Facility. KICC is DATED and we need a modern conference and i believe Bomas Internatiinal Convention Centre (BICC) is the Answer.

BREAKING: The Ruto government is reportedly planning to lease a floating power plant (powership/ or barge) at the Mombasa coast to “solve” electricity shortages. ~BD
The plan? Import a giant power ship, likely from Turkey’s Karpowership, plug it into Kenya’s grid, then pay billions through a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA).
And this is where Kenyans should ask hard questions.
Floating power plants can cost around KSh 15-32 per kWh, sometimes even higher. We've seen them in countries like Ghana. And you haven't added other costs like taxes.
Meanwhile:
- Ethiopia sells us power at roughly KSh 8
- Uganda at around KSh 9-12
So explain like we are in Class 3:
Why rent an expensive foreign ship to sell you electricity at 4 times per KW when cheaper electricity already exists next door? Aren't there other alternatives?
This is starting to smell like the same old IPP script:
Create a crisis.
Bring in an “emergency solution.”
Lock taxpayers into costly contracts for years.
A few connected people make billions.
Ordinary Kenyans keep paying expensive electricity bills forever.
The Ruto govt could be creating problems today that could punish this country for decades.

I don’t agree with your tweet. Leave people to enjoy themselves. Life cannot be work, work, work 24/7. If we all believed this, we would never smile while fighting through life’s challenges. Life is already hard enough as it is — let’s take advantage of the rare moments we get to laugh, celebrate and enjoy ourselves.
PS: I’m not even an Arsenal supporter 😄

This African madness about foreign football teams (especially from colonial brutes) while not being mad against police brutality, abuse of power, exploitation and grinding poverty, is one of the main reasons why liberating Africa has been difficult. To be liberated, Africans must liberate their MINDS and the illusions, fantasies and myths from and about the UK, Europe and America—and everything these imperialist regimes represent.
Don’t bore me about “it’s sports” or “religion.” I call it MENTAL COLONIZATION!
Now, go ahead and have a breakdown on @X!

Where are all these stupid idiots whenever calls are made to mobilize around citizens’ rights, economic justice, or accountability? Suddenly there’s endless energy, excitement, and public enthusiasm when it revolves around celebrating foreign entities or spectacle, but complete apathy when the issues directly affecting their own lives are on the table.
That’s why some of this performative excitement feels hollow to me. A society that struggles to organize consistently for its own dignity and prosperity, yet easily rallies around symbolism and external validation, has its priorities badly distorted.

Must everyone in the entourage travel business class? Must we physically attend all these meetings. It's really not about cost but more about OPTICS as Barrack Obama once said.
This regime is getting to the pint they will tell us: "If you find fuel too expensive, buy yourself an EV 🙄🙄".

@MwangiBonnie @HillaryGondi Do we have alternative dispute resolution the chicken thieves?
Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪 English

Okoth Obado was accused of stealing KSH 2 billion from Migori County - roughly 20% of the county's population.
In a county with a poverty rate of 46%.
Our government decided to settle with a thief - where he paid about 10% of the proceeds of crime.
Now, he is a free man.
When you watch the attached video of @JohnMbadiN telling us to be open minded to corruption so that thieves can "invest" the money, evrything makes perfect sense.
A Government of Thieves, by Thieves, and for Thieves.

@MwangiBonnie Most stupid idea I have heard. It’s not impossible to stop looting this country. We simply need people in power who are willing and able to ENFORCE THE LAW.

DEAR KENYAN MALE GOLFER,
I need to address you directly today.
Not your wife.
You.
Sit down. Put the club down. Stop adjusting your golf glove while reading this.
I have been studying you.
And I have reached some conclusions that the scientific community will eventually fund but I will share for free today.
Before golf found you, you were lost.
Not geographically.
Existentially.
You were a man whose balls had retired early.
Whose handicap in the bedroom had become a permanent fixture.
Whose wife had stopped expecting anything impressive and had quietly made peace with Tuesday evenings and thirty second performances that she has described to her friends in ways that would destroy you if you ever heard the exact words used.
Then golf found you.
And everything changed.
Suddenly you had balls again.
New balls.
Titleist balls. Callaway balls. Pro V1 balls that you clean obsessively and carry in a specific pocket and discuss with other men with the reverence previously reserved for scripture.
The vocabulary alone gave you new life.
Hole in one.
Four ball.
Back nine.
Stroke play.
These words have given the Kenyan man who scored a D minus in KCSE the confidence of a Harvard professor.
Walk into any clubhouse on a Wednesday evening or Saturday night and observe the phenomenon in its natural habitat.
There he is. Chest out. Drink in hand.
Handicap on his lips before you finish saying hello.
He is the most important man in the room and he needs you to know it.
On the street he corners you.
"Where do you play?"
"Can you join my four ball on Monday?"
"I'm doing the Muthaiga golf on Thursday if you want in?"
This man has not asked his wife how she is doing.
But he has texted six men this week about tee times.
His wife prays for attention.
His four ball gets it every Saturday at 5am.
Now here is the part that should make you sit very still.
The reason he is so enthusiastic about this hole.
The reason he studies it.
Approaches it carefully.
Reads it from every angle.
Takes his time.
Adjusts his stance.
Commits fully.
Is because somewhere along the way he forgot how to do this at home Hole.
At home it is two minutes. Maybe. On a good Tuesday.
Then he rolls over and sleeps like a man who has completed something significant.
His wife lies there. Staring at the ceiling.
Wondering what happened to the man she married.
But on the golf course.
On the golf course this man has patience.
He has technique. He has focus.
He will stand over that ball for four minutes reading the green before he commits.
Then he executes.
And if he gets close to the hole he will tell everyone in the clubhouse.
Everyone.
The same energy applied at home would have saved twenty marriages in his circle.
Instead it is being deployed on a fairway in Karen golf every Saturday morning while his wife makes tea alone and wonders why he woke up at 5am with more energy than she has seen from him in four years.
The Kenyan male golfer has found the one place where his balls work perfectly.
His handicap is respected.
His stroke is admired.
His four ball awaits him every weekend without complaint.
Nobody at the clubhouse asks him why it took thirty seconds.
Nobody at the clubhouse has that conversation.
The golf course has become the most successful marriage counselling service in Nairobi.
Not because it fixes marriages.
But because it gives the man somewhere to go where nobody is comparing him to who he used to be.
As an elder I must warn you.
Your wife has noticed the 5am energy.
She has noticed the new golf shirts.
She has noticed the group chat that is never on silent.
She has also noticed that the hole you are so obsessed with finding every Saturday morning is not the one you come home to.
The balls are multiplying on the course gentlemen.
Everything else is in retirement.
Don't say the servant of the Lord didn't warn you. 😂
