Religious gaslighting does not work on me. I worship Allah not mere mortals. I abhor hypocrites in power. Stealing billions of money then preach about morality to young people who’re starving. And yes I’m against constructing a mosque in a grabbed public park meant for kids when there’s a mosque just few meters away. You’re all insufferable. Hypocrites. The real iblis incarnates!

Madam wa reduce the cost of protein reporting for duty. #ProteinAgenda. Thread. 🧵
1/ There are currently 3.12 million children enrolled in ECDE centers today (out of 7 m eligible 😱 ). Protein deficit, especially amino acids, hits them hardest from a developmental perspective.
Hebu give us the number of slum dwellers who have benefited from this program

For the first time after having a president for 24 years, after having a deputy president for 10 years , after having a president for 4 years. For the first time. Mtu wetu syndrome

This idea that I should be worried about getting a visa to America simply because I have an opinion is actually part of the problem we need to address as Africans. For the longest time, we have been made to believe that criticizing these so called “first world countries” might cost us an opportunity to visit them, and sadly, that fear has kept so many people silent.
I have always believed that these visa restrictions exist by design. You make people so desperate for access to your country that they become afraid to question you, while making millions from visa applications that don’t even guarantee entry. Meanwhile, we are busy welcoming citizens of these same countries into our nations, some without even requiring a visa.
I think we have spent far too long giving these countries power over us, including the power to determine what we can and cannot say about them , yet they say the worst about us.Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but the winds of change will blow across Africa.
We will make Africa Great Again!!And I genuinely hope we get to a point where no African feels the need to silence themselves just to qualify for a visa.

How do product and engineering teams align around the same mission?
What happens when engineering does not understand the product or vice versa?

Mobilisation works!
For the first time, Israeli state bonds cannot be sold in the European Economic Area.
No EU state should reopen this channel of financing Israel’s apartheid, ethnic cleansing and genocide in Palestine.

This is based on my conversations with several people who were affected by the layoffs. Either take a 6-week PIP or take the voluntary exit package. False choices

What happened to me is bigger than one artist or one stage. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention.
So we're going on tour. All proceeds will benefit organizations supporting the Palestinian people and movement.

With the Adani details having been made public, one would think "smart Kenyans" would take the time to compare them with alternative expansion plans to see what a raw deal it was. Adani wanted a 30 year lease, an 18% guaranteed annual return, tax waivers, and a permanent 18% equity stake in JKIA’s aeronautical revenue even after the lease ended. The concern was not whether JKIA needed upgrading, but how much public revenue was being surrendered. The issue was excessive concession terms, guaranteed returns, tax breaks, and perpetual ownership. Kenyans were rejecting a predatory deal. They were not "politicising" progress, but rather protecting national assets.
We may have politicised away a deal that Kenya desperately needed.
JKIA handled 8.8M passengers in 2025 against an 8M capacity, with traffic rising by ~1M passengers a year. Government now says existing facilities could be inadequate within 3 years.
The Adani proposal was about $1.85B in private investment.
We rejected it. Now taxpayers still need to find billions to expand JKIA.
The question is simple: what did we actually save, and what will this delay cost Kenya?
Sometimes nationalism becomes expensive when it replaces economics.
Tell the whole story not only the version that suits your argument
Macklemore just like The Weeknd, Coldplay, Green Day etc chose to take a side and stand with humanity by supporting Free Palestine. They risked their careers for justice.
When we told our Kenyan artists to stand with Kenyans, they retorted "I can sit at a table with your oppressors and still remain fully African, fully critical, and fully myself. Presence is not submission."
Wengine wanataka akuwe dictator.
We should deplatform Kenyan artists who side with the oppressors.
