President Uhuru has thinned down people he follows to only eleven, with only three Kenyans remaining.
Apart from Deputy President William Samoei Ruto, First Lady Margaret Kenyatta and State House Spokesperson Manoah Esipisu, the President ‘unfollowed’ over 600 people, ending the bragging rights of people like Caroline Mutoko, Dennis Itumbi, Kipchumba Murkomen and House Majority Leader Aden Duale.

Essentially, he unfollowed all his cabinet secretaries.
In the private sector, President Uhuru unfollowed Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore, PR Guru Gina Din Kariuki and Chris Kirubi. He unfollowed Jeff Koinange and all local TV stations.
In the international stage, notable people he unfollowed are British PM David Cameron, Rwanda’s Paul Kagame and Burundi’s Pierre Nkurunziza. Uhuru also unfollwed AU Commission Chairperson Dr. Nkolasi Zuma, IMF Fund head Christine Lagarde.
Locally, he has unfollowed US Ambassador Robert Godec.
He however retains President Barack Obama, Uganda’s Yoweri Museveni, Tanzania’s Dr. John Magufuli, France Francois Hollande, Nigeria’s Buhari, India PM Nenandra Modi and Japan’s Abe Shinzo.
The other international person he has retained is head of Africa Development Bank, the Nigerian banker Akinwumi Adesina.
President Uhuru has two twitter handles, @UKenyatta where he has slashed the hundreds he now unfollows and the institutional one, @PresidentKe, which is run by PSCU, and where he still follows over 100 individuals and entities.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. 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...

Mr. Riley was already there when they arrived, sitting on the sand, eyes closed in a deep meditation. He was shirtless, wearing camouflage-patterned shorts similar to the ones The Spellbinder styled the day he appeared on the beach and a pair of rubber diving booties with smiley face emojis scattered over them. You would have been more than amused if you saw him in them. An assistant rushed out of the billionaire’s home the instant he raised a hand toward the heavens, displaying the universal victory sign.

THE CROWN YOU CARRY: A Letter to My LOVELY Daughter FROM THE HEART OF A MOTHER

My Dearest Daughter, As the sun rises over the hills of Limuru, casting golden rays upon the dew-kissed tea leaves, my heart swells with pride, hope, and the wisdom only a mother can carry. You, my beautiful girl, are in school, and while the world sees a student in uniform, I see a queen in the making. I see the grace of your grandmother, the fire of your ancestors, and the promise of a bright African dawn glowing in your eyes. This Easter, God granted me the sweet joy of bonding with you—not just as a mother—but as a woman who has walked a little further on this winding road of life. You may not know it yet, but in those laughter-filled mornings and quiet evening chats, a legacy was passed on: not of gold or silver, but of values, vision, and virtue. Let me speak to your soul now, daughter of mine. Listen with your spirit. In this life, my sweet child, “a child who does not listen to the mother’s advice will sleep with the flies” — a Ghanaian proverb as old as wisdom itself. The worl...
