A neighbour borrowed my charger and never gave it back, I saw the direction she went there are 3 apartments, I knocked on all doors and in one a woman opened and hid behind the door, I said hi, and before hearing what I had to say she locked the door behind her very fast.

In 2012, Dennis Itumbi was arrested in Embu over allegations of hacking an ICC witness's email account, following a complaint by the ICC prosecutor's office.

There was a time i was coming from sipili with my wife and kids , hizo siku Kuna matatu ilikua inaitwa "The Moran " that used to be the only transport to Nairobi then . Along the way we picked up a cousin of mine his wife and kids .
On that fateful day the Moran developed mechanical fault in kinamba. From 10am to 3pm the mechanics worked on it. We had left so early the kids hadn't had anything to eat in the morning . People who visit rural areas know the financial situation of the journey back ,you are broke completely.
I saw my cousin excuse himself and left behind some buildings and I thought the same idea had hit him ,to go find some food . After 10 min of looking for him to join financial muscle,I found him in a kibanda eating with the urgency of ndii . " Mzee ni kujipanga " he said when he saw me .
I bought some chapatis now for both families it was clear this guy wasn't bringing back any for his family and quickly left just in time to find the Moran ready to leave .
Kila mtu akapata chapati mbili mbili except me , you could see the life come back in the little kids . Chairlady akapewa chai by a woman she was talking to and they shared with my cousins wife.
We had to wait for a few minutes for Jessi to show up , when he finally did he was empty handed with shinny lips . We didn't talk the whole journey and 30 more years .
I have remembered that story because his wife and kids relocated to the UK and left him here , stories of his suffering have become a common discussion when family gather . Sasa Leo asubuhi I got a call from a nephew who wants me to talk to his children to save him from alcohol dens in maimahiu. He says it's bad for a father to sacrifice for his children and then they abandoned him .
Sasa Mimi nauliza ,mtu anajificha watoto akule peke yake , ni sacrifice gani hizi wananiambia ? But anyway nta piga simu later In the day nione kama atasaidika ,but I just know I will hear horror stories.
Good morning from ndeiyashire.

Duale called the Kikuyu community hyenas, your kinsmen are here calling us jareers/Kaffir/nywele ngumu, with a certain fetish of enslaving nywele ngumu, mara half of Kenya is somali territory? But you want to have selective outrage? Victim card declined!!!

Your people are hypocrites, suffer selective syndrome and have corrupted moral grounds. All they know best is throwing us racial slurs like jareer and kaffir. u have no moral grounds to lecture Kenyans on anything. All we've been is accommodating to y'all.
Sijui Nini hukuwa shida ya Somalis mkifika peaceful environments

It would be nice if you also addressed the antagonistic somali elements, both big & small. Address why Boranas and Oromos get heavily insulted by Somalis on the TL. Address the heavy use of jareer/bantu/nywele ngumu. Address the ever-increasing cessationist posts.
Let's balance.

The World Bank says electricity costs for businesses in Kenya are almost 50% higher than in Uganda and more than 124% higher than in Viet Nam, two of its peer countries.
The report says opaque power purchase agreements (PPAs) and weak procurement practices have contributed to high electricity costs.

This Somali lady has recorded a clip that has gone viral on social media after expressing her frustration over the growing number of men working in salons and beauty parlours in South C,Nairobi particularly in areas predominantly occupied by the Somali community.
In the video she recorded and shared online, she complained that almost all the salons have men working there or men visiting to have their hair styled and beauty treatments done.
She urged men to stop the practice, arguing that salons and beauty parlours were traditionally considered places exclusively for women.
