I was recently surprised by my 11-year-old daughter Samira when she told me she wants to start a beekeeping course at the National BeeKeeping Institute. She requested Sh6500 and went ahead to register for the course.

I applied for a hustler fund loan, and I was offered 3000 shillings. Anyone who gives me a viable business plan for a capital of 3000 I will put up a 100,000 shillings capital and partner with you. Twende Kazi.

made a single visit to Kilifi and already Aisha Jumwa and Amason Kingi are fighting. 😊You better learn to respect Baba. Coast is sealed!

From back in the day Baba
@RailaOdinga
has always been looking sharp. 🙂 This was March 2011 in Tehran, Iran where we had traveled with him to look for investors.

Discussions with Baba
@RailaOdinga
on the economic future of Mombasa, Coast, and Kenya at large. I am glad to be part of the delegation accompanying Raila and we are already working towards bringing investors to Kenya.
Congratulations to my brother Abdulswamad Shariff Nasser on your victory. Now the hopes and aspirations for change of the people of Mombasa rest on your shoulders. We will all rally behind you. May God give you the strengthen and wisdom to deliver.
It was a pleasure to host PM
@RailaOdinga
for dinner at Kilua, Mombasa County. We discussed matters of National issues, BBI, the referendum and the way forward for Mombasa. Interesting evening.
Congratulations
@MarthaKarua
on your selection to be Rt.Hon. Raila Odinga’s running mate.
Martha brings onboard years of political experience and toughness that has earned her the respectful title "Iron Lady".
I met with my ardent supporters and explained to them why I dropped my gubernatorial bid. Once again, I take this opportunity sincerely thank all my supporters for standing with me since we started this journey 12 years ago. In the race to excellence, there is no finishing line.
Thank you all for your support!
I look forward to representing my country and promoting the interest of not only Kenya but the East African Community in the August House and contributing towards the economic transformation of our region.
Asante Kenya!
When Murumbi and Jaramogi disagreed with Jomo they both resigned. When Mwai Kibaki disagreed with Nyayo he resigned and went into opposition. It is disingenuous for Ruto to take credit for Jubilee success and sidestep failures. We need credible leaders not sellers of stories.
Normally, I have so much to say and write about, but today, words completely fail me. Mama speak for me today because I am choking. The demos were peaceful. Why did you shoot our youth. The hour of reckoning will come sooner or later.
I went to register my complaints with
@RailaOdinga
; I reminded him that he also has children in Mombasa and while we appreciate his gesture to send food to Kibra he must not forget his children in Mombasa. He graciously arranged to send me some food to distribute on his behalf.
As promised, I went to Embakasi police station to honor my commitment to Officer Amina. I also met her commanding officers who are very proud of her performance. We had a long discussion with OCPD and various other officers on the challenges that they police.
Let's pass a law holding any driver who leaves a car or truck on the road criminally liable if someone crashes into his vehicle. Call it the Memusi Law in honour of his wife who died in such an accident. Enough is enough.
The good thing about my good friend and former classmate Mudavadi he likes telling people the bitter truth. Now he has already sensed defeat and taken the message home. It is gone. Baba has taken it.
Happy New Week ahead!

It's time that JKIA stopped removing people from cars and buses at the main entrance and screening them. It's unnecessary inconvenience. The only other airport that does that is Kampala. Is that our benchmark? Really.
Such talents of our youth are what the Azimio Government will be keen on nurturing as per our Digital Economy Agenda. Watch how we are going to thrash Wale Jamaa! See how Martha and Kalonzo assist Baba with that Goal!
Round One! Game Over!

Yesterday I visited the ASK Showgrounds in Mombasa and saw almost a hundred buildings empty. These grounds are used 4-5 days a year. Allow traders to use them on condition that they give them back during the show days. Pure waste of resources.
Thread
1/1 My attention has been drawn to photos posted by Deputy President William Ruto showing him, UDA leaders, and Selina Maitha whom I had appointed as my running mate before I stepped down from the Mombasa gubernatorial race.
Only in Nairobi and Kampala airports are traveller's forced to disembard from their cars for security checks ? Whats the logic for this American Requirement? BTW, why is this not applied in US airports?
I take this opportunity to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the
@TheODMparty
and my party leader Rt. Hon.
@RailaOdinga
for nominating me for election to the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA).
Azimio la Umoja is committed to the economic revolution which will be realized through efficient service delivery as promised by
@RailaOdinga
. Today, the people of Mandera said they are ready for the Baba na Mama
@MarthaKarua
led government.
#Inawezekana
Paid a courtesy call to Baba with my son Samir. We exchanged a few ideas on our current political and economic situation and wished him all the best on his journey to secure the AU chairmanship. Baba is fit and ready to serve Africa!
@RailaOdinga
FamilyTime:
The little things that you do for your family matter. Today, I was the man to watch😁 when I decided to slaughter a goat for my family and guests.
Karibuni nyama choma.
I am honored and delighted to be elected Chairman of the Communication, Trade, and Investment Committee in EALA.
I take this opportunity to sincerely thank my fellow EALA MPs from Kenya and the entire region for their support and confidence to have me lead this crucial committee
We cannot be talking about wheelbarrows when our industries are collapsing. Our manufacturing has collapsed from 11% to 7.5%.We need to be honest with our fellow Kenyans.We have to look at the performances of Raila and Ruto and ask ourselves who can deliver. I believe Raila can!
Thousands brave the cold on a Monday to show support for Baba in Kerugoya, Kirinyaga. The Azimio juggernaut rolls on. Vote for change with Baba na Mama.
I am in Kigali attending EALA Committee on Communication, Trade, and Investment which I chair. Kigali is an inspiration to me. Clean, safe, and disciplined.
See the boda boda crew out here. First, they offer a helmet before asking where you are going.
In EALA Parliament, a member from South Sudan said to me "Hon. Shahbal, we in South Sudan, Infact, East Africa admire and envy what you Kenyans have built and achieved in the last sixty years, but beware, you could destroy all that in one day". Fellow Kenyans, reflect on this.
Kalonzo is a national leader. He commands a considerable number of voters, but the train will leave without him if he doesn’t join. We are hoping we will be on the same train as him. We hope he will come back. Azimio is winning this election.
#K24ThisMorning
I visited Baba
@RailaOdinga
to wish him a quick recovery. Also shared with him and the family some dates for Ramadhan. Dates (tende) have so many health benefits and would hopefully help in his recovery. I am glad to see Baba fit and in good spirits.
Attended the Akurinu Church’s Annual General Conference which was graced by H.E President Uhuru Kenyatta and Azimio Presidential Candidate Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga and his running mate Martha Karua. Our religious diversity is a catalyst for our Unity as a Country.
Seems like the 70% assignment given to our Western friends will just remain to be in the so-called contract between them and the DP. Nothing else. This is Busia when Baba visited.
I joined Rt. Hon
@RailaOdinga
and other leaders for a delegate meeting at MKU Pavillion before we proceeded to the Azimio la Umoja rally at Thika Stadium.
Niwega muno andu a Kiambu!
The Coast has for years known its space in
@RailaOdinga
’s heart. He is the man who has stood by us to defend our region from greedy and selfish leaders who are only interested to add votes into their buckets but ‘ve no intention of resolving matters Port/SGR, or land injustices
Having breakfast with Baba in Mombasa. Engaging with Hon.
@RailaOdinga
is always very entertaining, enjoyable and educational. A wealth of knowledge and experience.
Together with Rt. Hon.
@RailaOdinga
, we had a productive engagement with Japan Ambassador to Kenya Okaniwa Ken and discussed among other issues the need for Japan to increase investments in Kenya and particularly pushed for the fast-tracking of the Dongo Kundu project.
The resilience, passion and determination in this man is what makes him a living legend. That is why it is worth spending time to cheer him as he continues to make Africa proud. Go Omanyala!
When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.

It doesn't need to be in a forest, my beehive expert (Samira) tells me. I told her she needs to give me free honey once she harvests some. Shock on me, I am told I will be the first one to buy.
VIDEO: We no longer have the Luxury of waiting. We can give no more excuses to our youth who don’t have jobs, no more excuses to our mothers who can’t find water.
Now is the time! Change Must Come! Raila is the change!

Recently, I paid a visit to

DP Leader
@HassanAliJoho
. Thank you Baba!
Today, I joined Azimio la Umoja flag bearer
@RailaOdinga
and other leaders for campaigns in Mtito Andei and Kibwezi in Makueni County.
Our commitment to the transformation of our counties remains intact. This will be done through the exploitation of their respective resources.
This young man brought a coffee bush. The question is why are our farmers still poor while Germany which doesn't grow any coffee makes 10 times what we export? It's called Value Addition. Kenya, let's get serious. Elect Baba and let's change our economy.
Today I met my political opponent
@HassanAliJoho
. I was impressed by his humility & readiness for reconciliation. We have decided to choose hope over fear. Unity over Division. Progress over Endless Political Bickering.
#ForwardTogether
The first image a visitor has of a country is the airport. Nairobi airport cannot even get its aircraft bridges to work and people have to climb up and down buses and staircases. God forbid, if we have a serious crisis will they be able to handle it? I am fed up
Paid a courtesy call Baringo Sen.
@MoiGideon
. We discussed the current state of our country and the challenges that we are facing from COVID 19. We believe that the country needs to start planning on a recovery strategy and implementation plan.
