AFTER HIDING & SEEKING, EVEN PULLING DOWN HIS FB ACCOUNT TO AVOID HARD QUESTIONS,WILLIAM RUTO IS BACK

Dp is back but only this time, turning against the Kalenjin nation telling them to shut up. He referred to those making noise about Rugut's dismissal and tribalism in government as "small people down there" adding quote; "my relationship with Uhuru is personal and my being in TNA is for my own reasons...na hata kama nilinunuliwa eti kwa 7B sio shida ya mtu!" Ruto blasted those planning to fundraise to refund Mama Ngina and Uhuru the money asking them to instead direct that money to Baringo and other parts of a Rift Valley where women and children are dying of starvation. The tough talking Ruto said that "my people" read Kalenjins, knew very well that Uhuru and those around him could not be trusted based on the history of both tribes and that he could become a mere ceremonial deputy under Uhuru but they still went ahead, just like sheep, to vote for him and TNA.

He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

For years, the collapse of Libya under Muammar Gaddafi puzzled many observers across Africa and the world. How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region. Gaddafi’s Libya boasted: Free education Free healthcare Subsidized housing Cheap fuel High employment An extensive welfare system These were not myths. The United Nations Human Development Index (HDI) of 2010 ranked Libya 53rd in the world and first in Africa. Even today, that ranking stands...
