Things I love: the knowledge from history, the intrigue of politics, the decisiveness of sport, and the camaraderie of the pub.

@VinceChepkwony @SoniaRas @RUBiSKenya_ These guys have created the standard for public restrooms in Kenya. A breath of fresh air for real.

At Narok, there is a very clean washroom.
They charges zero shillings for use.
This is the kids section.
I asked the cleaner who maintains them and she told me @RUBiSKenya_ does.
Good job Rubis 👏👏👏

Diribe Welteji 🇪🇹 has been banned for 2 years!!
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has partially upheld an appeal by World Athletics against Ethiopian middle-distance runner Diribe Welteji.
Welteji has been handed a two-year ban after being found to have committed an Anti-Doping Rule Violation for failing to provide a sample during an out-of-competition test on 25 February 2025.
CAS ruled that while her violation was not intentional, she was still negligent and failed to provide compelling justification for not submitting to testing.
Her period of ineligibility runs from 8 July 2025 to 30 June 2027 (with credit for provisional suspension served). All results from 25 February 2025 onward have been disqualified.

Something about Africans elites of the 50s and 60s speaking the Queen's English with a very polished accent. And it is for all Anglophone Africa.
Interesting.

This is @HEBabuOwino in his university days when he called for a strike and the university deployed heavy police presaence so he changed it from a strike and decided to change it to a crusade as police watched as it was not illegal to hold a religious ceremony.

@NationFmKE @brian_aseli @Claudianaisabwa @kenbyatt the good thing is we have a number of long-serving presidents in the continent. Take a look at their records and let us know if you think Atwoli’s view can be taken seriously. Obiang’ Nguema, Biya, Museveni, Afwerki, and Sassou Nguesso.

COTU SG Francis Atwoli: I oppose presidential term limits. One term isn’t enough to build a nation.

This is Edwin Gathigi, 19, from Matuto Village, Mukurwe-ini, Nyeri County.
Edwin was sentenced to life imprisonment after his grandmother falsely testified against him, committing perjury by alleging that he had defiled his 7 yo cousin. The accusation was later proven to be entirely fabricated after a successful appeal.
His auntie, the mother's sister, decided to punish her sister by jailing her son because she caught her trying to seduce Edwin's father.
After years of injustice, Edwin has finally been released today from King’ong’o Maximum Prison, following sustained public attention and advocacy by journalist Simon Kibe.
We wish Edwin all the best as he begins his life anew.
Can those who testified against him be sued?
