Iran's new supreme leader says the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed as a "tool of pressure." Many African nations rely on imported oil and gas and this could be a catastrophe. "These economies are small and fragile, and African economies tend to recover slower from shocks"

CNN found the family of an African recruit who was allegedly used by Russian army as a "can-opener" with a landmine to storm Ukrainian positions. He's been offline since October. Fighters from 🇳🇬🇬🇭🇰🇪🇺🇬🇿🇦 Investigation with @KrebsKatya @mufabs @IsaacOyombe cnn.com/2026/02/04/afr…

@LarryMadowo Congratulations mate.

I was wondering why people were congratulating me. Ahsanteni sana 🥹 I use my platform in service to my people. Always

@LarryMadowo It was insane.

CNN photojournalist @mufabs sprayed by police in Nairobi even though he’s clearly identifiable

@LarryMadowo @MarocDiplomatie @Marocdiplo_EN And you are traveling from one African country to another African country. Unbelievable

@LarryMadowo @MarocDiplomatie @Marocdiplo_EN And to make the matter worse, while applying online, one has to prove that s/he has a valid Schengen, USA, or a Canadian Visa. If not you can not even proceed with application. That’s insane.

Morocco denied a veteran sub-Saharan African journalist a visa with no explanation. Europeans and Americans do not need a visa

@bonifacemwangi Well done @bonifacemwangi also happy birthday.

My name is Boniface Mwangi, and l turn 40 today. I want to celebrate this milestone with Gandhi Muturi, a 27-year-old photographer, activist, and motorcycle rider who was involved in a life-changing accident last year. On 14th October 2022, while riding home, Gandhi was involved in a road crash barely 500 metres from his home. He suffered severe damage to his spine (eight fractures), leading to loss of motor, and sensory functions, as well as multiple fractures on his right leg and left arm. Over the past nine (9) months, Gandhi has waged a very brave fight for his dear life. He spent almost two months in the HDU at Coptic Hospital with multiple organ failure. He has shown great resilience and a strong spirit. He battled with pneumonia; failing kidneys, heart, liver, and lungs; low levels of oxygen, heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature. He has confronted his condition with resilience, and hope for recovery, despite the various blood and bone infections he experiences now and then. Gandhi reminds me of my younger self, carefree, adventurous, and a go-getter. He needs a lot of support, and I’m asking you to chip in to support his medical care. His treatment is gradual and expensive. Gandhi’s mother, Naomi Barasa, is a comrade in the struggle. She was awarded The Sir Henry Brooke Award for Human Rights Defenders in 2018. Her impact on human rights in Kenya is undeniable. She was instrumental in the enactment of the Sexual Offences Act in 2006, the adoption of the Housing Bill 2011, the Evictions and Resettlement Bill, and the Slum Upgrading, and Prevention Policy. She also played a role in the push for the Kenyan Constitution in 2010. My family, and l shall climb Mount Kenya in August. We shall be doing so to celebrate Gandhi’s resilience, and his journey to recovery. The climb is open to anyone who is willing to join us. All the money raised in this campaign will go to Gandhi’s medical care. Donate here: PAYBILL: 891300 ACCOUNT: 72985 mchanga.africa/fundraiser/729… #UniteForGandhi

@imi254 @hrcberkeley Pole sana ndugu… May she RIP!

I spoke at the @hrcberkeley today but couldn’t stop thinking about my grandmother who passed on yesterday morning in Kenya. Loosing one of the closest people in my life is hard, it’s heartbreaking. I pray Allah grants her Jannah, please include her in your prayers!
