I have renamed this roundabout and bridge in Nakuru, “Nakuru City Gauntlet.” No one in Government and its agencies seems to feel ashamed that the stretch of the road has been potholed for a long time, and that the entry into the City through the bridge has to be decongested with bypasses.
Of course, I am not blaming the Governor or Senator of Nakuru County. It is not their work to build or repair roads but that of the National Government and @KeNHAKenya. The Governor and Senator are doing an excellent job in their respective areas of qualification: hotel building and alcohol manufacturing.
I blame the People of Nakuru County for not lighting fires on these two women’s asses to ask the National Government and KeNHA to do the needful. FYI, the two are the President’s best friends. Kwani what do they ever bring to the table, or leave the table with, when negotiating with the President?
I know I will be told that “everyone has their own opinion just as they do an ass.” Let me sit in mine for now.

Sifuna's speech today. Saying that he wants the mountain to examine him.
This is Sifuna being a team player, coz ukweli no kwamba mimi nime toka mlima and I am 100% behind him.
Sifuna is a moderate. Hana vita na watu.
He wants to change this country.
Sifuna must be the next president of Kenya

Ethiopia is building 1.5 million homes without forcing a housing levy on it's workers. The Ruto regime has not even completed 50,000 houses 4 years after imposing a housing levy on pay slip holders. Levels.

Importers of used motor vehicles take note.
It looks like we are headed for yet another change as far as the Current Retail Selling Price schedule used by the Revenue Authority is concerned.
This means a potential change in the approach applied for computing customs value of imported used motor vehicles.
Commissioner General says the Revenue Authority is engaging the Motor Vehicle Industry for "introduction of CRSP Version II".

Justice Mohochi holds that in abduction and enforced disappearance cases, petitioners need only establish probable State involvement. The burden then shifts to the State to disprove its responsibility.
Petitioners cannot be held to a higher standard of proof.

It is cheaper to buy out IPPs and idle them then buy power from Ethiopia, only if the line can handle the surge.
Ethiopia is selling electricity to Kenya at 6.5 US cents per kilowatt-hour, placing its bulk power export tariff among the lowest in a regional comparison

Dear Kenya 🇰🇪,
This is almost exactly how things looked in Turkey before the fund scandal. Be careful out there.
A friend

Standing by people whom you treasure through it all.

I did it again. Gathered all my broken pieces, turned the pain into purpose, and channelled every bit of it into a new joint.
Because sometimes rebuilding yourself looks less like healing and more like creating something extraordinary out of what tried to break you.
Bent, but never broken.

Airtel Money has integrated with Pesalink, allowing customers to transfer money directly from their mobile wallets to accounts at 30 banks, SACCOs and microfinance institutions.
The service is available through the MyAirtel app and USSD code *334#, eliminating the need to withdraw cash before making bank deposits.
The partnership also lays the groundwork for future cash deposits and withdrawals through Airtel Money agents and direct merchant payments via Pesalink, although no rollout dates have been announced.
