Is a new economic conflict emerging within the East African Community (EAC) as Tanzania suspends all Kenyan Airways passenger flights to Dar es Salaam from January 22, 2024, following Nairobi's refusal of cargo flights for Air Tanzania? With eight members, unity appears elusive. The EAC's cooperative front seems more like a puzzle missing essential pieces.
Kenya Airways operates 33 scheduled flights per week between Nairobi and Dar es Salaam.
For long, believed jiggers infection to be exclusive to the Busoga region, I have previously teased friends and colleagues from that area. Regrettably, it appears that the affliction has now affected my own tribe, the Bagishu. Did someone revange by bewitching us!
Jigger infections used to be an endless menace in the Busoga sub-region, with reports of deaths in almost all its districts
Governor Lusaka of Bungoma proposes legislation barring pregnant teenagers from returning to school. Does this not contradict the widely accepted principle that girls' education should not be compromised based on their gender or maternal status?
Governor Lusaka said that prohibiting pregnant girls from attending classes would act as a deterrent against irresponsible behaviour.
Boda Boda riders, when operating on a shoes string budget, often tilt their bikes to extract the last drops of fuel into the carburetor. I didn't know that, even those who hire choppers also carry empty MTN-like yellow jerry cans to refuel when faced with challenging situations. Hii ni UDA kabisa!
Confronting fears and self-doubt head-on is the only path to true liberation; evading them only delays the inevitable reckoning.
Captain Ibrahim Traore of Burkina Faso faces another coup attempt, France is the perpetrator. A real coup, not Bugingo's theatricals. This coup, no charade.
Coup Attempt in Burkina Faso
Burkina Faso ditches France, warms up to Russia. France throws a coup tantrum. Enter Russian intel, saving the day like superheroes. Burkina Faso tells France, "See ya!" and Russia says, "We've got your back, comrades!"
It's a geopolitics action flick โ France as the wannabe villain, Russia as the surprise hero. Spies play cat and mouse, but the mouse (Russian intel) outsmarts the cat (French agency).
Burkina Faso's diplomacy becomes a spy thriller. Lesson learned: In geopolitics, you need more than a baguette โ Russian borscht adds that extra spice! ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ฅ๐ท๐บ
Kenyans experience tells me that Airbnb is a Faustian bargain of innovation, exchanging comfort for the potential perils that lurk within. Be careful not to dive into hell just because of the allure of technology.
As Cape Verde triumphed 2-1 over four-time winners Ghana, social media exploded with the island nation trending like a Hollywood blockbuster. Ghana, caught off guard by this underdog victory, found themselves singing the unexpected tune of "Bindu Bichenjanga."
It's a soccer script where the small fish flips the script on the big sharks, leaving Ghana in the unexpected role of the surprised co-star. The scoreboard speaks volumes, and Cape Verde's moment in the spotlight is not just a flash in the pan; it's a cinematic upset that's got everyone rewriting the plot.
So, who's playing babysitter in Kampala โ is it the police, or is it the UPDF? Picture this: the city's like a rowdy house party, and now we've got these two, the police and the UPDF, taking turns as the reluctant chaperones. It's like trying to keep an eye on your mischievous siblings โ one minute it's the police, giving you that stern look, and the next, here comes UPDF, trying to act all cool and authoritative. We the citizens are Non Aligned. Don't treat us like NATO or Russian allies.
These abaslay queens exhibit arrogance by flaunting relationships with rich partners, despite facing financial constraints, raising questions about the source of their purported affluence. The paradox of discussing luxurious gestures, such as receiving substantial sums on dates, while lacking gainful employment and struggling to afford basic necessities like accommodation, prompts scrutiny into the authenticity of their claims and the societal values influencing such behavior.
Hyped Western weapons, like HIMAS and Patriot Missiles, didn't stop the Russian assault on Ukraine. Now, there's talk of the German Skynex air defense system. What's its impact? Will it make a difference? The hype continues.

Political heavyweights spar on social media like idle villagers playing Ludo at the market.
Odd that Gashumba is doing police briefs on Bugingo's incident โ explaining the intact car mirrors, clean shirt, and the curious route to Mulago and Kibuli. It's like a script flipped, with a commentator in the detective's chair.
South Africa and Yemen's Houthis prioritize humanity over selfish interests. Openly challenging Israel on Palestinian issues, they stand firm against heavy odds. It's a global stage where some nations choose principles over pride, like a moral compass pointing true north.
Only in Ruto's manifesto, razing a 6-generation building for an unproven housing experiment seems prudent. Legalities might reverse before he exits. It's a gamble with history, risking tradition for untested visions.
The lives of more than 2,000 residents of Whitehouse Estate in Diani, Kwale County, are in limbo
When Pastor Yiga raised the Nsereko look-alike issue on his church's TV, prompting MP Nsereko's DNA test, I almost believed it. Now, I've dismissed the "real brother" narrative as the look-alike skipped Mzee Alhaji Abdul Nsereko's burial. It's a twist in the tale, like a missing note in a familiar melody. Sometimes, family ties seem more like loose threads.
The New York Times is tarnishing the Houthi government by labeling them a "militia" just become they stand against Israeli aggression in Gaza. They are a legitimate government of Yemenis and played a crucial role in uniting North and South Yemen. It's like calling a peacemaker a troublemaker. The Houthi government deserves fair representation. We won't let misleading labels orchestrate the narrative.
Is it war or comedy hour in the Middle East! US bases in Iraq getting some unwanted fireworks from Iran-backed guests. Meanwhile, Iran and Syria play BFFs with unconditional support for Yemen. Yemeni cities bombed for backing the Palestinians against Israel's aggression. Talk about a geopolitical sitcom!
Repeat of aggression: Yemen airstrikes, like Iraq in 2003, lack Congress approval. White House ego trip. Biden's destined for a rough fall.
Today's position isn't a God-given license to mistreat others. All roles are transient; the world, in its current form, is passing by. Tomorrow, you might stand on unfamiliar ground.

The countries DENYING claims of ISRAELI genocide:
๐บ๐ธ United States
๐ฌ๐ง United Kingdom
We're eagerly awaiting Murkomen's response to Sudi's claim about millions in Dubai bribes for transport contracts. Silence implies truth โ it's the courtroom of public opinion.
Deal aimed at creating working channels to boost public-private partnerships in the country.
Craftsmen, once at the East African Village Market on Buganda Road, now clutter the perimeter fence near Hotel Triangle's parking lot with their art. It's a beautiful mess of creativity, but the display is as organized as a squirrel's pantry after a storm. If only their skills in arranging art matched their craftsmanship!
Dr. Kizza Besigye, despite his sacrifices for Uganda's liberation, some ungrateful individuals choose not to thank him but instead opt to steal Matooke from his Kasangati garden at night. Shame on those who did that. If you're one, reflect on your actions.
An Israeli Likud Party member boldly suggests turning Gaza into a bonfire, and it's as if the world pressed the mute button on condemnation! If this had come from any other country, we'd probably have a global uproar, but hey, NATO-friendly alliances seem to get a free pass on such bonfire banter. Are we here to serve humanity, our leaders?
Uganda plans to destroy over 5.6 million expired Covid-19 vaccine doses. These valued at 28.1bn Ugandan shillings were bought with a World Bank loan. It's ironicโleaders make grand pledges, but when it's action time, their vision seems blurry.
It's like buying a fancy car, but letting it rust in the garage because you forgot to fill it with gas. Our leaders promise the world, but when it comes to ex*****on, they're like a broken compassโpointing in all directions but going nowhere.
Why would your own daughter take part in her dad's murder and cover it up when fathers adore their daughters immensely? Unless she belonged to someone else. In life, we always have twistd in taled, where many people do stir confusion in familial love.
Flanked by her lawyers, Ms Nkwanzi surrendered to the court barely two days after an arrest warrant was issued against her
