World Rugby just sidelined Africa. The new #HSBCSVNS format locks out teams like Kenya—despite decades of loyalty, performance, and passion. We’re not just angry. We’re organizing. #JusticeForKenya7s #RugbyForAll #HSBCSVNS #WorldRugbyMustListen
I'm convinced that Kenya is sustained by Western money. We can't have an extremely insipid, corrupt elite, an anti-intellectual academy, a non productive economy, and the economy hasn't crashed. There is an outside factor sustaining this Kenyan economy, but not on our behalf.
Had a great time with writers, poets, editors & publishers from Pen Adventures - amazing work happening here! We dived into conversations around writing, digital-era publishing & enjoyed a read-out of some great work. To more of this! 🥂 #PenAdventures @ParkieBaptist

These men nearly brought down the entire SACCO sector, yet they’re walking free thanks to a Ksh. 3 million cash bail, despite over Ksh. 13 billion looted. When I first exposed them in 2023, the courts gagged me. In China, such cases don’t end in bail…they end with the hangman.
Stop wasting our time with hot emotions over projects that were milked dry 18 years ago. In any case classist attitudes like yours suffocate dignity and choke all public good, including cemeteries. So let our Heroes rest where their families deem fit. standardmedia.co.ke/amp/article/11…

Plans for Heroes Corner stall as State wavers

It’s time we came up with a hero’s corner to bury people like Leonard Mambo Mbotela. It’s disheartening to hear that he will be buried at Lang’ata Cemetery, probably his grave will be on top of another grave, knowing how crowded that place is – Speaker Moses Wetangula
Throw back Thursday. This is what I looked like in 2015 at a dental meeting in Kampala. Read the tale of how 2 dentists came up with a brilliant idea in 2021 and where they are today. Any advice for them? facebook.com/share/p/1Kbhq5…
