REVIEW OF AZIMIO MANIFESTO: 12 DISTURBING ISSUES.

A very famous Youtuber from dubai (5m subs) asked me to take him on a tour to taste Ghanaian meals. Because of time, I took him to Azmeera and with the owner of the place had permission to film and explain the meals, where they come from and what they are made with.

Unfortunately many are celebrating the near killing of @OleItumbi by members of Kenya's security forces. But the celebration of two men standout. My friends Prof @makaumutua and @DonaldBKipkorir are over the moon and are disappointed the hitmen didn't finish off the job. SHAME!

A day like today 2 years ago, my near 2 year old was on oxygen at Nanyuki Teaching and Referral with bad bacterial pneumonia.
This is after Gertrudes had misdiagnosed and asked me for 150k for them to even admit her as she wasn’t saturating properly.

Folks, I have to be circumspect about the solutions to public debt management in Kenya. Most claims such as, "debt is not bad if..." are in my view wrong for Kenya. Jubilee did not just go on an idiotic spending streak but was frontally supported by an obliging parliament. 1/N
