@Honeyfarsafi Are they willing to join us in the street demos again?
English
Met the gun shot survivors of last yearโs protest. They were all in one ward and have since kept their relationship close, sharing pain and the quest for justice. I love how they find strength in each other ๐ค๐คโค๏ธโค๏ธ
They still havenโt healed completely and struggle to make a living after their lives were altered last year. I felt like their stories were a bit left out so we all met and talkedโค๏ธ

The visionless opposition leaders are inciting other peopleโs children to head to the streets as they remain behind sharing out donor funding. Did Boniface Mwangi et al enter Parliament that day? He stayed behind and increased his Yayah stock after the protests.
Donโt be their donor financing data. Donโt go to the streets unless they lead you, with their children.

We don't need more laws, we need implementation, especially full implementation of Health Act 2017. @MOH_Kenya should address real issues that affect quality of healthcare @KenyaGovernors

@IamDennisOtieno I hope they are not using AI to detect AI generated content.

UK universities are now checking your statements of purpose (personal statements) for plagiarism and AI-generated content when you make application to the unis.
A high similarity score indicates a lack of academic integrity and may result in your application being automatically rejected.

@ReubenKigame Good, but I suggest that you combine forces with other like-minded candidates and present one man or woman for president.

@lynn_ngugi1 How about we try boycotting their services to teach them a lesson.

The UK Visa Application Centre (VFS Global) in Westlands, Nairobi, is a masterclass in modern day exploitation.
Kenyans pay hundreds of dollars, wait in the sun, get misinformed, and walk away feeling less human. The new venue at Principal Place (yes, they left 9West) has no proper waiting area and no parking. This is by design to have you pay 17K for their VIP/Premium โservices โ
If youโre not paying for premium services, youโre left outside in the heat, on the pavement. Elderly people, parents with kids, students, all treated like a security threat
Their Communication is Trash. You get vague emails like โyour passport is ready for collection โ only to be turned away and told โcollection is from 2pm to 5pm, (you can easily indicate that on the same damn email) That means if you show up at 10am, youโll have to wait till 2pm or you can easily pay the 17K to be attended to quickly.. ?? EXPLOITATION
No clear timeline. No courtesy. Youโre meant to guess your way through it.
These centers arenโt run by embassies, theyโre outsourced to private companies who monetize your desperation. Itโs a business, not a service.
And guess what? No refund if your visa is denied(familiar?)
The worst part? This is normalized.
Weโve accepted that applying for a visa means surrendering your dignity just to maybe be allowed into a country that benefits from our labor, money, and talent.
If Global North countries want to charge Africans these high fees and accord them zero dignity , the bare minimum should be basic human respect. Decent waiting areas. Transparent timelines and Fair communication.
This isnโt about security. Itโs about power and exploitationโฆ
This system needs to be called out and changed.
And itโs time African governments started protecting their citizens from this daylight exploitation.

Well, it's Kenya's BOLD NEWSPAPER.

I think The Standard newspaper is fast sliding into gutter territoryโฆ the screaming headlines it splashes; some intentionally misleading are aimed at causing disunity and eventually plunge the country into the seas of fear and anger. I stand corrected on this pointโฆ
English
CNN has uncovered that in 2024, in total, Africans lost 70 million dollars in denied Visas to Europe... Like, cumulatively, people paid non-refundable amount amount worth 70 million USD and the visas were denied. CNN says the embassies are making more money in denied Visas than issued. Khabusie!

@waluwande Now that we are here, Prof, whatโs your view on the idea that marriage is a political & economic entity meant for elites with generational wealth to secure richesโwhile the rest of the hoi polloi should mate like wild boers, as my friend Dr. @abbah_mwamburi says?
English
I am on record as saying that burials are a fairly recent phenomenon. Less than 200 years ago, some societies simply abandoned the dead to hyenas and vultures.
Ronald Mahondo@MahondoRonald
@waluwande I donโt support calls to change how Kenyans conduct funerals just to cut costs. Instead, letโs ask a deeper question: whatโs truly Kenyan in todayโs culture? Letโs not lose our soul in the name of savings.

The Peopleโs President@bonifacemwangi
Words canโt express my gratitude to all of you for raising your voices to get me released. I say โmeโ because we are yet to know the whereabouts of my friend and comrade, @AAgather. We went through the worst form of torture and were threatened with public humiliation if we revealed what they did to us. You cannot torture us, however, and then dictate how we should react. We were detained, tortured, and treated worse than rabid dogs in the name of President Suluhu. We were there peacefully as members of East African Community to attend a court hearing in solidarity with Chademaโs party leader, Tundu Lissu. I have been to both Tanzania and Uganda to visit comrades in jail in the past. When the then Chademaโs Freeman Mbowe was in jail in the same Tanzania, l visited him. When Dr. Stella Nyanzi was jailed in Uganda, I went to see her. And when Bobi Wine was under house arrest, l went to visit him, too. As Kwame Nkurumah said, "Iโm not African because l was born in Africa, but because Africa was born in me." I have been to Ethiopia, Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria, South Sudan, and even Zimbabwe to visit with comrades facing trumped-up charges. Iโm a Pan-Africanist, and l have trained and mentored activists in all four corners of our continent - from Arab to French-speaking and from English to Swahili-speaking nations. We were supposed to be in Dar Salaam for one day, 19th May 2025, then travel to Uganda that same night to attend Kizza Besigyeโs case on Tuesday, 20th May 2025. Our arrest and detention should not stop the solidarity among African activists or deter us from showing up for each other. Dictators are united, and only our own unity can help democratize our respective countries. Everything that happened to us in Tanzania was done in Samia Suluhuโs name, and we will ensure the world gets to know. We shall speak for the Tanzanian victims who are too afraid to speak. What Suluhu did to us will be revealed to the world. We shall not be silenced by a torturous dictator who has her foot on the necks of the Tanzanian people. #FreeAgatherAtuhaire #FreeAgather #FreeBonifaceMwangi

While at it, in this nursing profession.
Is a higher national diploma in nursing equal to a bachelor of science in a nursing degree?

@kenkunde1 One with 2 degrees and the other with 1 degree.
Scope of practice there should be reviewed to accommodate merit and seniority.
That's why I'm advocating for combining those undergraduates.

BSc Midwifery is a distinct specialization within the broader field of Nursing. It focuses on maternal and child health, including prenatal, delivery, and postpartum care.
Similarly, one can pursue BSc Nursing, then proceed to do a MSc Midwifery. Both are recognised by WHO.
