Kenya doesn’t lack democracy; it suffers from elite capture. We’re recycling billionaires in government while citizens cheer for tribal kings. It’s time to stop worshipping the ballot and demand a reset. Real transformation needs disruption of the status quo.

Let’s not ever forget that all this 👇🏾happened under a (tyrant) female leader. For those of us who have been in the business of advocating for increased female leadership, can we please do better and have more nuanced conversations about the type of female leadership we want.

This is SO disgusting! Samia Suluhu Chama Cha Mapinduzi 🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮 Even more disgusting that it comes only a few days after the sexual assault of Agather Atuhaire by Tanzanian authorities. Samia Suluhu should we assume that you endorse sexual violence against women?

In 2023, I experienced 6 out of these 8👇🏾. Since then, several things have happened in the same organization that validated my truth; including the forcing out of a Vice-President & abrupt resignation of a President. Both women of color with strong voices. #Toxicworkplaces

Retweeting this because it is worth reposting. Sakaja Arthur Johnson and Nairobi City County already made access to Uhuru Park difficult. Now Kenya Forest Service want to restrict access to Arboretum to only those with money. Public green spaces provide healing & should be accessible to all!

This is so difficult to listen to. But I truly truly applaud Agather Atuhaire for living up to Gisèle Pelicot’s words: “Shame must change sides.” It is not the survivor of sexual assault who should feel shame, it is the evil abuser. Samia Suluhu you are a disgrace to women.

Such takes are problematic because they take focus away from the true enemy: *THE POLITICAL ELITE*. Ordinary TZians, like ordinary Kenyans are just trying to survive. Also if you’ve been following Maria Sarungi Tsehai you’d know that TZians have been resisting & have paid a heavy price

Tanzanians have been resisting and have paid a heavy price for it👇🏾. The enemy is the political elite not ordinary TZians. JaPrado. you know what it is like to be abducted. Use your platforms to amplify the plight of abducted Tanzanians! x.com/mariastsehai/s…

It taken less than 10 years for it to go from free to now past 200. We are making the few public spaces we have inaccessible. What was that about no community spaces for our kids?

We are witnessing a government that can't fix the economy but is obsessed with fixing social media. A government that cannot afford to fund national exams but can effortlessly spend millions in a single day on state-sponsored prayer rallies. A government that pleads poverty when

Today at Soma Nami, we honor the life and legacy of Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o (1938–2025), beloved Kenyan writer, thinker, and fierce advocate for African languages and liberation. He passed away on May 28, 2025, at age 87 in Buford, Georgia, surrounded by love. #ngugiwathiongo
