If the church is a patriarchal and oppressive institution and if you feel there is no way you can ever work together with it towards common goals, the people need an alternative institution. Let us see if you are as good as building as you are at criticizing. 14/

Good to see some of the reactions to Serbia and Brazil: that it takes dedicated organising to win an election. What will it take to change a system? To fix an economy? To challenge a deeply unfair global (dis)order? To renew a social commitment to the values Kenyans agreed represent them? Just as important, who will it take beyond politicians for this to happen? Kenya is in an argument between its past and its future - how it goes depends on who shows up to argue.

You aren't going to free women from the church by shouting at the institution from social media. You are going to free women from the church by creating the social infrastructure they need to be able to live without it. 1/

Take turns visiting one another. Check on the person who has been unusually quiet. Visit someone who is sick. Contribute something when a member is struggling. Come back with a report this time next year. 10/

Someone showed me shege+++ and I went from wanting to throw hands 🤣to wondering how they could do that to me as I'm going through a funeral process. Previously I'd have gone to the bar on my way home. The first times I tried therapy failed; but the last one-Excellent work on me!

This plan to force “Limited data” is probably Ndegwa’s worst idea. I hope it fails spectacularly
Safaricom has launched Family Share, combining Home Fibre, mobile data and voice minutes into one monthly bill. Bronze — Sh3,749: 40 Mbps, 750 min, 14GB Silver — Sh5,100: 60 Mbps, 1,000 min, 21GB Gold — Sh7,799: 150 Mbps, 1,500 min, 33GB Diamond — Sh13,999: 500 Mbps, 1,500 min, 33GB

A while back I found myself thinking we have been protesting femicide since 2019. I thought maybe it is time to reach out to Christian women's organizations, because they have the networks, and numbers that could help sustain this fight.
Christian women are a powerful voting bloc unfortunately millenial Christian women have no idea how powerful they are in Kenya, it’s a power that you don’t need to be debating nor defending , coz it literally drives policy and everything ,but you wanna be engaged in sideshows 💀

This is also the worst time to have done that, because those far right organizations from the Yues are actively working in Africa to influence legislation. Those far right organizations will sit down with Christian women and they will talk to them with respect.

This is very unfair. Instead of reporting on the Marathon, you decide to focus on the Harathon.

Once again, I will repeat this child should not be on social media. The fact that she is on social media, the way that she is a strike against that her stepfather.
Betty Bayo’s daughter, Sky Victor, has publicly expressed disappointment with a court ruling delivered yesterday on the living arrangements for her and her brother. She says the decision went against her wishes and has appealed to Kenyans, people of goodwill, and President William Ruto to help ensure her voice is heard and justice is done. Sky has stated that she prefers to continue living with her stepfather, Tash Gitau (the husband of her late mother), rather than being placed under the care of her biological father, Prophet Victor Kanyari. According to her, Tash has raised her and her brother well, and she feels safer and more comfortable in his home. She has raised concerns about living with her biological father, alleging that he has made negative public remarks about her late mother and comments about her and her brother that have caused her distress. She further claims that during a previous stay at his home, her phone was taken away, preventing her from contacting her stepfather. The ongoing court process has taken an emotional toll on Sky, affecting her peace of mind and ability to concentrate in school. She says she had been counting down the days to the judgment in the hope that the court would take her wishes into account, only to be disappointed by the outcome. In her appeal, Sky has asked Kenyans and other well-wishers to support her and her brother in seeking a resolution that prioritizes their welfare and preferences. She has specifically called on President William Ruto for assistance, saying she wants her concerns to be heard. While acknowledging that the court reportedly directed parties not to discuss the case publicly, she argues that as a minor speaking about her own experiences and those of her brother, she does not want her views to go unheard.

Sifuna and Kang'ata on paper seem like such a dream pairing. Ideologically, though, they are quite different. If they ever became president and deputy, they would need a concrete priority plan on nation building. If you read Kangata's articles, there is an emphasis on capital accumulation, productivity, manufacturing and building large Kenyan corporations capable of competing globally. Very Kibaki-esque. He also has rather socially conservative views. Sifuna, on the other hand, emphasis is on constitutionalism, the rule of law, accountability, reducing government wastage and relieving the economic burden on ordinary citizens. If you listen closely, infrastructure and economic development mean little if citizens cannot enjoy their constitutional rights, afford basic necessities or access functioning public services. Like a young James Orengo. Kang’ata seems to be more interested in how the country creates wealth. Sifuna is more interested in how the state wields its power, manages public resources and serves its citizens. I think both men mean well for the country, but those differences become important when you move from political philosophy to actual governance. They have a priority problem. A nation needs both the capacity to create wealth and institutions that prevent that wealth from being captured by a few. Agreeing on what kind of Kenya you want is the easy part. The kizungumkuti is agreeing on what must be sacrificed, funded or postponed to build it.

By the way applying for a Nigerian Visa - you need more documents than you need for the UK, US, Schengen. And the process is longer. You even need the passport of the inviter. A colleague is applying because someone decided to host a conference in Nigeria that he has to attend.
