Doing this until he accepts this challenge

Please stop sharing the pictures of Edwin Kiprotich Chiloba's lifeless body next to the metal box his body had been stuffed in. Remember him for the iconic fashion designer & fun loving person he was.
Today, Museveni is hosting medics to discuss ending AIDs by 2030. Kagame is focused on funding healthcare since U.S funding fell by 50%. Suluhu is engaging youths to get their aid to end Aids while Tz medics are discussing ending pediatric aids.
William Ruto has gone to Dubai.
My favourite borehole story comes from Ukambani. So, USAID digs a borehole to save women from walking to rivers. Boreholes increase men's accessibility to women. Men start demanding for more sex. Pregnancy goes up. Women vandalize the borehole & go back to the river.
@cliff_mwango
Please direct me to a tweet you have shared of a heterosexual young man who has been murdered & whose death you are currently highlighting for justice. I would like to share.
Giraffe Manor is a symbol of racism, imperialism, & internalised racism. The current owners Mikey & Tanya Carr-Hartley are 4th generation Kenyans. Their great-grandparents came to Kenya to colonize Kenyans & colonize our great-grandparents sufficiently.
So, Nairobi University kids who have to pay for food via Ecitizen. If chapati & ndengu is 30 bob they have to pay 80bob because of the 50bob transaction fee?
I know GoK wants to build those houses so bad. But is it really that important you are swindling kids?
Dear men, this is a polite reminder, those new faces you see in crocs, ombre multi-coloured braids, flawless skin without makeup, dressed in tiny tops & sweat pants are children on holiday. Keep your eyes on your wives & work girlfriends.
Kenyans get PhDs not because they want to contribute to academic knowledge but because they want to use "Dr" to bully & intimidate people with lesser education qualifications
I don't support Ukraine because of the racism & hate they showed Africans at the beginning of the Ukraine war. Until the Ukraine government & people address their contempt for Africans, they have zero right dirtying our environment with their ugly graffiti
Its interesting how the government of Kenya has zero plan for their human resource. You twerk & trend you get a government job; piga binja like this, kazi; kunakuna your chest kwa dance floor, kazi; so, why should kids go to school yet all they need is an iphone & a viral video?
Okiya Omtatah rarely bothers anyone. He sees what is going on, thinks about it, & uses the available systems to challenge the things he believes are wrong. The fact loud mouths like Ndii are picking on him means he is onto something & y'all should listen to him keenly.
Good morning beloved
@KRACare
brethren. From this video it is evident these two adulterers have used personal items more than $500 on their person. So, waliwacha kwa help desk ama that nonsense is a reserve for nyangau
Dear Nairobians, the floods you are experiencing when it rains for 2 hours isn't because of climate change it's because of lack of effective drainage & water systems.
Kenyan men are expressive. You can see it in their male friendships. How they talk, how they buy beers for one another, or how they call each other boss to boost their morale.
To see your society for what it is, you need to stop internalizing American way of life as ur own.
6 months ago 40 children were found being ferried in a lorry in Chogoria.
In February, police stormed a two-roomed house in Kayole where 16 children were being held.
Today, 32 kids in Eldoret have gone missing.
Child trafficking is back in full force.
You know the Emiratis are done with Africans when they decide to share a list of everyone who showed up in Dubai but had zero business to be there
Meanwhile, roads in Kenya right now
Today MPesa forced the entire nation to rely on trust. Trust they will send money when Mpesa comes up. And for a low trust society it was a traumatic experience.
Immigration and Citizen Services PS Julius Bitok flanked by the Director General Immigration Evelyn Cheluget and other officials receives a consignment of passport booklets at Nyayo House, Nairobi
Remember how we lost kids during the Garissa University terrorist attack because a top GoK officials wer using helicopters for personal use & the rescue team had to travel by road? By the time they got to the school 148 souls had been lost?
UK gov has said Gen Z will be drafted into the military. Gen Z wamesema they might not be the best fit. They get heartburn when stressed, they struggle to get out of bed in the AM, & they have ADHD & might forget what they are doing in the battlefield.
I have seen people share Brian Chira's eulogy. He is described as the son of a woman, who is the daughter of a woman. He was a nephew to two women and the only men mentioned are his cousins.
House of Mumbi, is absentee fatherhood that bad?
So, Sudi & Sakaja made a deal to defraud Nairobians through over priced garbage collection services. Since both fellows didn't go to school, they overlooked the paperwork & that's how the Auditor General caught them.
Endeni shule beloved. Hata kama ni gumbaro
I don't understand why African Americans insist on coming to Kenya is how we organize our space offends them while celebrating remnants of colonial spaces.
For the first time since independence 300k children will discontinue their education because politicians messed up the education system in the name of an archaic curriculum no one in the world uses.
CIA accessing the Kenyan president a day after 2 Navy Seals went missing while on mission along the coast of Somalia plunges Kenya into the heart of an international silent war between U.S + Israel & Houthis, a war Kenya has zero business getting into.
Women in Greeland are learning they don't have fertility issues, Denmark colonised their wombs by inserting IUDs in them while they were children.
Let me go before i get suspended on Elon's twitter too.
Dear young women. Go out. Have fun. Drink your alcohol, laugh, wear your tiny black dress & dance.
Don't let random people use the current crisis to cut you down to size. Dictate how you should live your lives.
Back in 2020 when Kenya was having the worst locust infestation in 70 years, Peter Munya, then CS Agriculture, held a press conference after a ride in a helicopter & said, "tumeona hizo zinge ni colour yellow, inamaanisha zimezeeka karibu zikufe!"
A few things to know about ugali:
1. Ugali in English is called maizemeal
2. Ugali is a byproduct of colonialism
3. Maize isn't native to Africa
4. Ugali is not and never will it ever be your traditional food.
5. You've been conditioned to think ugali is good for you.
If your Pastor brags about travelling for holidays or getting 450 million to fund his medical tourism. But your church doesn't have an education fund for orphaned children or home-aid for families with financial difficulties. Defund your pastor.
A Kenyan woman invests in mass producing indigenous medicine for fertility. She attracts customers across the continent, Europe, & North America. Media hypes her work up. All of a sudden forest conservation comes back to the limelight.
Gen Z realising U.S is the villain & Osama bin Laden a victim of American terrorism is a new chapter in human history I didn't think would ever come to pass.
This documentary won't tell you about the number of factories that shut down, the empty estates, & the mass forced retirements. They won't tell you how GoK & COTU under Atwoli made this possible. It was never like this. The tea estates were safe for women.

investigation has uncovered widespread sexual abuse on tea farms which supply some of the world’s most popular brands.
Watch ‘Sex for Work: The True Cost of Our Tea':
Faith Nyanchama Mangera did everything right. She asked an intruder why he was in her house at 2am. She did everything in her power to weaken him. Rushed to the police & informed them of what had transpired. She is now being charged with attempted murder.
There is a huge contrast between the way Kenyan women & men interact on this platform.
Women will show up with insights, excerpts, & give progressive feedback. Men will shout, "uogo!" "feminist!"
It's comforting knowing intelligence comes from mothers.
This man's son wore the Kenyan flag to go kill Palestinian children. You should boycott this Nazi Zionist like your life depends on it because it does. Supremacists will always be supremacists.
Social signalling is such a fascinating thing. How young women gain weight & dress in ways that signals "mama" so that society can treat them with more respect
Vanity Fair should not only retract this article but they should do an article on all the design
@asyakhamsin1

When your spouse cheats on you, breaks your marriage vows. Be like Size 8 Reborn, weaponize it, package it, and utilize it for profit. Making money off your spouse's infidelity is the most Christian thing to do.
Lia ukitengeneza pesa.
Today, we had a choice. Talk about the road infrastructure that isn't designed for human use. Roads that exclude motorcyclists & pedestrians. Roads that are filled with potholes as soon as they are completed. But Kenyans choose to troll Eliud Kipchoge, a man in mourning.
I think TEAMs university didn't teach Sakaja logical thinking because how are you paying a lawyer Ksh. 67 million to defend the county against an employee who earns Ksh 19k per month.
Y'all made Charles plant a tree in Karura 😭
Did y'all also show him the cave women & children used to hide from his mother's wrath or that is a non-issue?
Today, Nairobi without Karura Forest is UNIMAGINABLE. This is thanks to everyone who fought hard to protect it.

A true honour to welcome and plant a tree with His Majesty in celebration of my mother, Wangari Mathai.
It was the…
Today I want to share with you my personal experience with ignorant leadership.
It starts when
@WilliamsRuto
was minister of Education. He waged a one man assault on social sciences & humanities. Media ate it all up. Retelling a story of disciplines & their uselessness/1
Does away with Linda Mama
Hoard essential drugs gifted to Kenyans by foreign governments until NGOs paid taxes for the free drugs.
But some of you will believe this 😂
If a governor can spend Ksh. 8000 on a BIC pen that retails for Ksh.25 & the president's office spends Ksh. 3M on branded umbrellas delivered by a company dealing in petroleum products then kids are allowed to make 6 million a week from "trading"
It is 1pm. In a Kipsigis household, there is an elderly grandmother serving her 55 year old son whose never worked in his entire life, her 28 year old grandson who is a chronic alcoholic, & her 10 year old great grandchild who just walked 5km from school.
But mko na leadership
@Sweetmiriamke
Considering criminalisation of homosexuality was a colonial law meant to destabilise indigenous communities & destroy indigenous religious practises won't it make sense to have the conversation either way?
Edwin Kiprotich Chiloba's extended family disowned him the moment he came out. They denied him education & never spoke to him for years. Now they know him?
If it's true that European bedbugs are resistant to pesticides. African nations should consider having visitors from Britain & France fumigated and checked for bedbugs before entering African countries. No one wants to deal with kunguni promax
When Tanzanian President, the late Magufuli told us to be weary of Covid-19 vaccines & opt for non-pharmaceutical practises that could help us minimize the spread of the virus & help manage infection he was called an idiot & laughed at.
2 years later Science says he was right!
Why is Ruto looking for jobs abroad when the Chinese are getting jobs in Kenya at the expense of local workers? Why is a Chinese fisherman monopolizing fishing in a fishing community at the expense of Kenyan fishermen?
Kalenjin men lack leadership it's painful to watch purported leaders from this community speak ignorance & stupidity with confidence. Eti, "me I don't think we are overtaxed". Sit your butt down sir!!
Kenyan men: society doesn't allow us to vent. Our mental health doesn't matter
Mukoma wa Ngugi: My dad was abusive
Kenyan men: Why vent to strangers? You are an embarrassment! You are clout chasing! You are using your dad's name to gain relevance! You are not a man!!
If you take a minute to empathize with Rita Waeni as a victim. If you stop for a second from blaming her, you will realize there are loopholes within GOK that enable immigrants who travel to Kenya to specifically commit crimes.
Crime tourism has been legitimised by GoK.
Hey
@BillGates
millet is a bad investment. Even us we stopped consuming it. When you see millet you should be running away from it. Just stick to quinoa like a normal American.
Bill Gates in Kenya should have everyone on the look out for agriculture laws and policies. Last time he came Kenya decided to enact the Seed & Plant Varieties Act which prohibit seed sharing.
Female lawyers: We have represented women who have experienced GBV
Women in NGOs: We provide support for women
Women of all backgrounds: We stand by women

In 2017 Europeans who own land in the Kenyan plains in the name of conservation rained bullets on the Samburu & their cattle. They burnt down manyattas. Until today, no one has ever told us why foreign owned "conservation" companies have paramilitaries killing Kenyans.
Instead of being a sensible ambassador for your country,you bastardize your motherland.
When the whites get enough of you,the trappings will be gone, but the motherland will remain.
Larry Madowo, you are big let down to your own country.
Joe Sang giving Dorcas Rigathi 3M of Kenya Pipeline money for her personal foundation should raise alarms. Why is a GoK institution giving money to private entities? What are the regulations about spending public funds on private entities?
Hii ni bribe.
If you got an E and you are now in your 30s working as a manager in a company like Safaricom or a middle management government officer. Your father coughed sufficient money to get where you are. Nothing but money can cleanse the stench of academic failure.
Y'all know what Bill Gates is doing in Kenya isn't new? In the 1880s colonial administrators began a campaign targeting the bread baskets of Kenya. They encouraged people to shift to cash crop production. This is where Kenya's food insecurity began.
Ruto went to the FII forum in Saudi. The focus was on AI & how nations could utilize it for the benefit of their people. Saudi government told its citizens about their plans for AI. Ruto came told us Saudi has accepted to take 350k maids, askaris, & nannys. So, there's that🤦🏾♀️
There is something deeply criminal Dorcas Rigathi is doing. Whatever it is we will be ok with it the way we were ok with Mama Ngina selling wild life and ivory.
I have been struggling with PMS for the last two years. Last month I compiled indigenous foods given to women in different communities aka chakula ya wamama.
I don't mean to brag but I've had a PMS free month.
Cheers to making use of indigenous knowledge systems.
Why are Kenyans obsessed with getting PhDs knowing very well they only want the certificate & have zero plans to contribute to knowledge development. Why not take that money & start a wealth creating, job providing enterprise?
Nothing wrong with advancing your education though.
It's November. Tomato farmers are feeding their cows tomatoes. Onions are selling at a new low. And maize prices have gone down.
Millions of Kenyans don't have steady access to good quality food.
We cannot talk about GMO before talking about our failing supply chain system.
I don't know if Rachel Ruto knows the thanksgiving story isn't some wholesome beautiful human story. It is a story about betrayal, cannibalism, ignorance, starvation, & extinction of first European colonies in the Americas
You can't come gaslight me when I say that tweet by
@mbiti_mwondi
is problematic.
When medics let their personal beliefs influence the decisions they make in theaters while performing major surgeries. We should all be worried.
