My job is to report and get both sides of the story. If you want only what agrees with you, there are enough blogs for that

I am currently in Addis Ababa. The city is undergoing rapid development, with construction taking place in every street corner - everything is being built all at once - yet in a remarkably orderly fashion. All construction sites are enclosed with iron sheets, many of which are painted with artistic designs. From roads to buildings—and even landscaping—there is a clear sense of order. I thought Nairobi was leading in urban development, but to my surprise, Addis Ababa is way ahead.
Addis Ababa damn, Sakaja kazi ni goons tu.

Kenyans in public office would rather die than resign. Let us not therefore, plead with Eliud Lagat to resign. He must be physically removed from office, taken to Court and charged with murder. The People have the power to arrest Eliud Lagat as his juniors will not do so.

On 25th June 2024, the parliament was impeached. It remains a cursed house. It is a haunted house. Every June, the ghosts of #BloodParliament will be returning to dance with the MPs. It must be cleared, cleaned and cleansed. Otherwise, no MP will come out of it normal.

One thing I learnt last year is, the whole world can watch you dying on live TV and send their thoughts and prayers seconds after you are gone. Nobody cares anymore. Nothing shocks the world. Kids will die, humanity will be a thing of the past and they'll call it "the new world".
