Next president ata hatutaki atutengenezee barabara. Tutatembelea kwa matope. Tunataka tu atufungie wezi wa mali ya uma. Na alete referendum so we can make corruption a capital crime punishable ONLY by death.

You know "rudi kwenu" to Burundians is one step away from "rudi kwenu" to another tribe? Chungeni what you allow. Because you're next.

Today, a Rwandan trader in Mwiki was robbed of his bucket of mandazi, two thermos flasks of black coffee, and the money he had made selling to honest people. The thieves were chang’aa addicts who thought they had found an easy target. Unfortunately for them, they found the wrong neighbourhood. I responded immediately from Maji Mazuri. One robber left the encounter with fewer teeth than he arrived with; another went home with a head injury. Meanwhile, we raised KSh 3,500 for our fellow African trader to help him get back on his feet. Let me be very clear: we are not going to stand by while criminals prey on hardworking Africans trying to survive. A man wakes up, makes mandazi and coffee, carries his little business on his back and comes to Kenya to earn an honest living. The least we can give him is security and dignity. To the mugukaa, miraa, & chang’aa gang: mandazi is not your inheritance, coffee is not your birthright, and Mwiki is not a free-for-all buffet. We are Africans before we are anything else. We welcome our brothers and sisters from across this continent, and we will defend their right to work peacefully. Kenya must never become another South Africa where fellow Africans are attacked simply because they crossed a border looking for a better life. We can be tough on criminals without becoming cruel to foreigners. Leave hardworking traders alone. Let them hustle. Let them eat. Let them go home safely.

We've made life look like we only came to find money and die.

The only reason I dislike driving at night is that you'd start overtaking only to realize the oncoming isn't a motorbike but a whole canter with only it's left headlight working

The moment Kenyans🇰🇪 realised they are on their own,that the moment fear 😲 left 😞

If they trained and worked all civil servants like they do KRA guys, then Kenya would have had a base on the moon before the 2027 elections.

This school is 5–7°C cooler inside than outside. And the roof does most of the work. Gando Primary School was designed by Francis Kéré and built with the local community in Gando, Burkina Faso. In hot climates, 40–60% of heat enters a building through the roof. So if the roof performs well, indoor comfort improves significantly. Here are key strategies used: 1. Double roof system A metal roof sits above a clay brick ceiling. Between them is an air gap. When the metal roof heats up, hot air escapes through the gap instead of entering the classroom. 2. Clay brick vault The clay ceiling absorbs heat slowly during the day and releases it at night, helping stabilise indoor temperatures. 3. Large roof overhangs They shade the walls and reduce solar exposure. 4. Raised roof structure The lifted metal roof allows continuous airflow around the building. 5. Lightweight outer roof The aluminium sheet heats quickly but releases heat quickly because of the ventilated cavity. 6. The most important cooling principle in this building is something I talk about often. If you’ve been following my posts, you probably know it. What is it? Drop your guess in the comments. Temperatures in Gando can reach 40–42°C, yet the classrooms stay around 34–36°C without air conditioning. I’ve been getting many questions about climate-responsive design lately, so I’m building a framework that breaks down the principles behind passively cooled buildings in hot climates.

As an Iranian living inside my country during war, I will say this plainly. The chance of me being killed by masked, armed men roaming the streets, or by gunmen standing on mosque rooftops behind machine guns, is far greater than the chance of dying in an airstrike. That is the truth of life under the Islamic Regime occupying Iran. The real fear here has never come from the sky. It has always come from the men the regime unleashes among its own people. #Irán #IranIsraelWar

I have all the time, actually i can make a documentary about SHA and what guys are going through in hospitals. Leteni hizo kesi with receipts, sisi si wazimu tukisema it isn't working.

I support this 100%!

I would not recommend this in our modern construction. Water tank should not be under the same room with you. Sometimes those tanks burst because of high temperature, And in case of overflow or breakage that will form source mosquitoes and you maybe be electrocuted. Do it appropriately and safely please Good morning

We might eat late but I promise you guys we will eat.

Ni mbayaa 😃

In the history of Kenya, there are moments when the law ceases to be a mere collection of statutes and becomes a living, breathing shield for the people. Faith Odhiambo’s @FaithOdhiambo8 tenure as the 51st President of the Law Society of Kenya was exactly that—a masterclass in courageous leadership during one of the nation's most turbulent chapters. She did not just occupy an office; she occupied the front lines, stepping into the breach when the very soul of the Constitution was under siege. When the Gen Z uprising swept across the country, madam President became the steady hand in the storm. As we (young Kenyans) took to the streets to demand accountability, she ensured the Law Society was not a silent observer but a fierce protector. She was there with us through the corridors of police stations in the dead of night, demanding the release of the abducted and the protection of the peaceful protesters. I am one of the indirect beneficiaries of her efforts. During a season marred by the tragedy of extrajudicial killings and the shadow of state-sponsored intimidation, she remained unbowed, reminding the world that the law is the ultimate equalizer against the excesses of power. Her legacy is defined by more than just successful litigation; it is defined by her empathy. She humanized the legal profession, proving that a bar president’s greatest duty is to the most vulnerable. Whether she was challenging the Finance Bill or standing in solidarity with the families of the fallen, Faith undoubtedly earned her title on the job. It is a fundamental truth of leadership that no path can be walked without attracting both applause and scrutiny. The burden of high office is the necessity of making choices where the "right" answer is rarely the popular one, and Faith Odhiambo’s tenure was no exception to this reality. There were undoubtedly moments when her decisions were met with debate or divergence of opinion from the public and the legal fraternity alike. However, even in those moments of friction, there remained an undeniable undercurrent of integrity in her actions. ​In the challenging battles of politics and law, Faith often found herself at the intersection of competing interests. Whether she was navigating the delicate balance of state engagement (remember Ruto wanted to pull her into his abyss of doom) or making tough administrative calls within the Society, she acted with a conviction that was rooted in the long-term stability of the rule of law. If a decision was unpopular, it was never born of apathy or compromise, but rather of a deeply held belief that she was protecting the institutional sanctity of the LSK and the sustainable future of the public it serves. ​History judges a leader not by the universal consensus of their choices, but by the purity of their intent. For Faith, that intent was always centered on a vision of a Kenya where the law remains the ultimate arbiter. She demonstrated that true leadership requires the courage to be misunderstood in the short term for the sake of the greater good in the long term. Even those who may have disagreed with her at times cannot deny that she steered the ship with a steady hand, a clear conscience, and an unwavering commitment to the best interests of every member of the Society and every citizen of this Republic. She exits the stage having greatly strengthened the public's faith in the LSK as the last line of defense for the rule of law, leaving behind a blueprint for what it means to lead with both a sharp mind and a fearless heart. 1/2

When I was a teenager, my father and I built a barn garage together. Being a teenager, quality wasn't a huge concern - I would do whatever was fastest and took the least effort. Here's what that taught me about construction quality that every institutional owner should know: I quickly learned it took me twice as long to fix my sloppy work once Dad pointed out I hadn't done the job right. That's him in the photo at 81, complaining about me taking his picture while he's getting his haircut. It goes back to the proverb: "Measure twice, cut once." Problems identified after a job is completed can mean an astronomical increase in the cost and time it takes to remedy the same issue detected during construction. It can mean demolition and repair of both the affected area and surrounding structures, not to mention the costs of associated damages and potential litigation. Despite careful planning, monitoring, and inspections, numerous problems go unseen until long after construction has ended. Say a contractor is faced with an oversized opening in his window installation. He takes the fast route of using wood bucks to fit the windows. Two years later, office employees spot moisture building up in the windows and surrounding walls. As the use of wood bucks voided the manufacturer's warranty, the Owner is responsible for the extensive remediation and associated damages, which may include two years of inflated heating and cooling bills, mold damage to surrounding structures, and costs of litigation. A Quality Audit conducted soon after construction completion could have detected this problem before costly damages accumulated. On a larger project, consider a contractor running behind. They eliminate the step of applying grease caps to the ends of the post-tension cables they are installing. Inspectors don't catch the error during construction. A year and a half later, the corroded cables snap releasing the entire slab. Occupants must be relocated. Each PT cable among the hundreds involved must be examined to identify the problem. The building exterior must be removed to expose the cable ends and make repairs. The exterior must then be reconstructed, resurfaced, and repainted. A Quality Audit examining cable tension test results and sampling of installed cables could have detected and remedied the problem before additional damages occurred. Only after months or years of exposure to weather and consistent use do many issues make themselves known. At this point, determining who is liable for the extensive resulting damages becomes difficult. Not many parties are willing to accept the costly responsibility without argument. By conducting a post-construction Quality Audit, Owners avoid the damaging consequences of defects and non-conforming work that goes undetected prior to and during construction.

CS Alfred Mutua should be held responsible for Kenyans dying in Ukraine under Russian Army.

Buying a house in Nairobi and its environs is one of the worst financial decisions you can ever make. Let me talk about Greatwall Gardens, where I personally witnessed the madness of home ownership. At Greatwall, management will confidently tell you there is a borehole and a water storage system that is always full to capacity. They will also assure you there is a standby generator in case of blackouts. Convinced, you take a loan and buy yourself a nice two-bedroom house. You think you have escaped the stress of someone knocking at your door asking for rent and the frustration of daily power outages. Then the service charge bills start coming in, much higher than what was indicated in the agreement. Together with your neighbours, you start complaining and refusing to pay the additional fees. The management then resorts to blackmail. They cut off water supply to units that become “difficult” in paying service charges. Sometimes, they even liaise with KPLC officials and disconnect power lines from the main transformers. They pretend it is a KPLC issue and frustrate you until you surrender to their demands. Two weeks ago, residents of Greatwall Gardens Phase 4 organized a protest after being left without electricity for over 48 hours, following a power disconnection by Kenya Power (KPLC) due to a huge outstanding debt allegedly owed by the estate manager, Edermann Ltd. According to residents, KPLC supplies electricity to Edermann Ltd, which then distributes power to homeowners within Phase 4. When KPLC disconnected the main supply over unpaid bills, hundreds of families were plunged into darkness, despite residents having paid their electricity charges. The blackout disrupted daily life, affecting food storage, security lighting, online work, and children’s schooling. Residents say they are being unfairly punished for a dispute between service providers. I was frustrated at Greatwall Gardens until I decided to rent elsewhere, even as I continue servicing my loan. Sometimes we would go for two weeks without water. Greatwall looks good from the outside, but inside those apartments live families in distress. Avoid buying these houses in Nairobi. You will end up worse off your entire life than someone who has rented in Roysambu or Mirema. Bills every month, just like renting. Service charges alone can go up 20k per month. So where is the point of owning a house if you will live like a tenant?
