The President of the Commonwealth Association of Architects @Comarchitect and Past President of the Architectural Association of Kenya, Arch @StevenOundo OGW, had the honour of attending the Commonwealth Day Service in London, graced by His Majesty King Charles III and Her Majesty Queen Camilla. In his Commonwealth Day message, His Majesty reflected on the importance of unity in a time of global challenges, underscoring the Commonwealth’s shared values of justice, democracy, opportunity, compassion, and mutual respect. He also highlighted the immense potential of the Commonwealth’s youthful population and the urgent responsibility to restore and protect our natural environment. The Architectural Association of Kenya celebrates this global moment and is proud to see Kenyan leadership contributing to the architectural discourse across the Commonwealth. Inspired by this message, AAK remains committed to promoting excellence in the built environment while advancing architecture’s role in shaping sustainable and inclusive communities.

That this bus can successfully make trips halfway across Kenya is a testament to the improved road infrastructure. I’m surprised that @KeNHAKenya hasn’t come out to shout about this. 😊 There was a time when even a trip from Nairobi to Nakuru was a treacherous journey by road.

So a young muslim democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani is the new mayor of the USA's largest city, New York, a leading global financial hub. He is the youngest NYC mayor since 1892. This says a lot about fearless youths of the world today.
