STOP JOHO! LAKE NAKURU FISH IS TOTAL POISON, AND SCIENCE CONFIRMS THE SAME ♦️ Egerton University, Nakuru County's own health experts, @KWSkenya and @kefs_kenya have all flagged dangerous levels of lead, mercury and arsenic in this fish. The lake has no outlet; sewage and industrial waste settle there and build up. The health risks are documented: brain damage, stunted development in our children, kidney failure, heart disease and reproductive harm. ♦️ Yet CS @HassanAliJoho, a man whose academic credentials have long been in question, wants to purport to “license" this fishing and sell it to Kenyans as an economic opportunity. You cannot build an economy by poisoning your own people. That is cheap politics. Bure kabisa! ♦️ @HonAdenDuale, the health of Kenyans is your mandate. @kipmurkomen, you yourself called out the big men with cold rooms and lorries behind this trade. No fishing on Lake Nakuru, licensed or otherwise. To @IG_NPS Kanja — you don’t instructions from Joho ♦️ @SusanKihika, Nakuru's mothers and children are looking to you. Defend them, not political friendships. ♦️ And if a single Kenyan is harmed by a policy pushed against expert advice, Joho must be held personally accountable before the law, not hidden behind the office. @Cofek_Kenya is actively seeking to sue, him as a person, for his reckless pronouncement @MOH_Kenya #LakeNakuru #LeadPoisoning #StopTheFishing #OwinoOuru #Cancer

Jeremiah Kiereini, past EABL Chairman & Charles Njonjo were the ultimate gatekeepers of boardrooms & corporate governance in Kenya for decades post independence. Unknown to everyone else, the two had been stealing from CMC for decades, where Kiereini was Chair. Thier 5% cut on all vehicle imports was loaded to freight bills of Peter Muthoka. Accelor Logistics Eventually they were caught & exposed In the ruthless boardroom battle, Paul Wanderi Ndungu exposed the two old men. They were eventually found guilty by CMA We wrote about this corporate fraud in this article 👇 substack.com/@boardlotafrica…

Mr Walker” (1959) is an incredible confession— a lyrical depiction of men as gold-diggers. “She ugly yes, but she wearing them exspensive dress The people say she ugly but she father full a money Oh Lord Mamma, woi woi!” Travel light, Mighty Sparrow🕊️ youtu.be/VuJ4m1WaKSE?si=1X5X…
The Mighty Sparrow - the Calypso legend has died on in New York at the age of 91, according to reports.💔🇹🇹🇬🇩 A statement from his family was released saying: “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Trinidad and Tobago’s Calypso icon, Slinger Francisco, known to the world as ‘The Mighty Sparrow’,” The #MightySparrow was born in Grand Roy, Grenada, in 1935 and was raised in Trinidad and Tobago. He became one of the most influential figures in calypso with a career spanning more than seven decades. He produced hundreds of recordings and became one of the most recognised names in Caribbean music. Rest in Peace King. Truly a legend. The Voice sends condolences to his family and friends.

Kenya has no single law on age verification for kids online. A KICTANet roundtable just tackled the hard questions — age verification vs. age assurance, who enforces it, and whether any measure can survive a rights-based legal test. The findings shape Kenya's voice at #IGF2026 this December 🇰🇪 kictanet.or.ke/kenya-child-o… – at Nairobi, Kenya
