Someday I hope the study of Tigray Defense Forces will be done so that I can read it. Their performance on the field battles are legendary. All against them but once the fighting starts they results are one dimensional
Kindly note this is just the main rainy season of the year Aug-Oct with heavy rain clouds from DRC Equatorial rainforest as usual. El Nino rainfall comes from East, our coastal region as its formed by warm oceanic water that creates unprecedented rain clouds that move inland

They were the real bedrock of OT. Two things changed for Man Utd fortunes to dive low. SAF retirement and this Sikh family no longer showed up at OT.
Timely reminder that SGR Kenya is Class 1 Chinese standards, heavy gauge track that is raised sufficiently above ground. It also has sufficient water drainage including floods control. No other railway in Africa can say that for now.
Kenya Railways says Madaraka Express Passenger service to and from Nairobi and Mombasa not affected by suspension due to flooding and will operate as per the normal schedules.

President Ruto Japan 3 days State Visit will seal projects worth $1 Billion. Mombasa County will be the biggest winners as some generational projects finally get done. Mombasa Gate Bridge project - Likoni Bridge will take 36 months to complete.
First we were told Tz will self finance it's SGR & many of us were skeptical cos Tz economy can't afford that. A few years later shifted to loans too but not in full. Trips to Nordic countries to fundraise started. Now it has stalled.

I left Equity kitambo. It stopped being a preferred bank for small business. My main issue was access of bank information by staff or unauthorized people. Each time I did a transaction I would get strange offers by texts or calls. Not before.
It's done. From July 1st 2024. Made in Kenya produce have duty free and quota free EU market access going forward. Build those factories here and export to Eu just like a member country of EU block.
Final greenlight to the EU-Kenya economic partnership agreement, which provides
📌 duty-free & quota-free EU market access to all exports from Kenya
📌 partial & gradual opening of the Kenyan market to EU imports
The EU is Kenya's 1st export destination and 2nd trading partner.

KQ returns to profitability. It was painful time, saved by our Taxes but it was better to stick to full cycle. When KQ was down sharks hovered to buy its cheaply for cents to $ like Delta. Now we can sell at fair price. Project Kifaru plan will inform on new investors decision

Man Utd didn't bid for him. Was he expected to buy himself into OT. This is on glazers, we lack a proper striker, CR7 available for £25M but we didn't bid. £10M glazers dividend, £35M loan repayment by club to glazers loan. Pep called him to convince him. What did ole do? Nothing

Mombasa Port confirms 2nd Container terminal phase 3 construction to take it to 2.5 Million TEUs capacity has started. This will take cargo volumes from 36 million tons to 47 million tons by 2030.

With a runway of 1.5kms thats a pipe dream as no cargo plane of worth will land there. Minimum is 3kms. to shift Miraa to Isiolo it need large cargo terminal. Cold room storage. Lastly adequate refueling facility & proper perimeter fence. It was launched b4 this could be done.
Eco Cloud Data centre $600 Million, 90 Billion shs in Olkaria is not talked about enough. KenGen will supply 60MW, Konza city has acquired 100 acres for it, Google & Amazon will use it. Great work to all involved.

Mombasa port has only 1 ship waiting and ship turnaround is 2 days. Dar has ships waiting for 1 month with 38 ships waiting, Djibouti 18, Beira 27, Durban 43, Richards Bay 34 ships. Capt Ruto and KPA staff are doing great reforms and efficiency.
Other than discharging Mombasa bound cargo MV Jolly will also discharge transshipment cargo for Port of Dar-es-Salaam
MD Capt. William Ruto noted that KPA has prioritized efficiency, eliminated waiters & reduced ship turnaround time making the port attractive to shipping lines

He is still hurting but also very right. Man Utd could pick Erik to get team structure, play philosophy, intense tactics & game plan. However the board is still looking at Kane £150M and Rice £120M. Replace the board too and give Erik free will on transfers and players go/stay.

@AlexShawESPN
Was neutral on Maguire for 18 months. Now its clear he's below average in talent, captaincy & consistency. He's rock bottom in pace. He's only good at heading the ball. Should be benched in Man Utd. Contender for worst signing. I don't support england so he can start there.

Martial should never even be starting. Sell him now, not worth time and effort. Can't believe we let Lukaku go and kept Martial. VDB should get in.
