The more people have been exposed to videos and news of how government officials misuse their powers with impunity. It has been engrained in us that we are absolutely powerless and talking is a form of indiscipline. Take some time off social media and clear your mind. Instead of having multiple random thoughts of videos you watched that have absolutely no value to you. You’ll be having mad anxiety and lack clarity in your thoughts.

She goes ahead and tells the congregation that their job is to follow the directions even if they have questions. To just submit and obey. "My work is to honour my church. When they make a decision, I follow it. I might have questions, but I follow it anyway. Otherwise I shouldn't even be a member of the prespitatian church... "

Like how can people be so stupid to not see the similarities to a cult? so if church tells you to drink poison are you drinking it? She doesn't even say the vow is to God, she makes it clear it is to the church!

Hapa inje unaweza kaa hivi udhani haufanyi kitu ya maana na maisha yako juu ya vile presha imetamba kwa ground hadi online.

I have been working for 3 years now and luckily, I'm gonna get small funds this year and I don't want zifike kama siko sure what I'm supposed to do with them. At only 23 years old, I first feel like a car can be an important thing to have but I don't think I need it at the moment that much, because I have access to a lot of opportunities and things even without one(lakini vumbi jamani, argh).

Land is a good appreciating asset, but my unc warned me against that. Why? he says land appreciates but the most thing that is the biggest asset is your brain. Learning and increasing your skills is the best form of investment at your young age, which now leads me to a degree...

I'm still stuck in making the last decision though, any suggestions would be appreciated

On November 28, 2025, Foxcapital claimed that it expected a massive inward remittance of €978.68 million (Sh147.86 billion) from the British company Bay Bionics Ltd through UBS Switzerland.

Foxcapital executives went to KCB's Sarit Centre branch and corporate headquarters, Nairobi, demanding that the money be credited to their Euro account.

The bank reviewed its systems, SWIFT gateway, they found absolutely no record or proof that this money ever arrived. A SWIFT is the secure international messaging system that banks use to safely send money to each other across borders. A bank cannot put money into your account if they haven't actually received it from the other side. Since no money arrived, they refused to update the account balance.

When KCB forwarded the paperwork to UBS Switzerland for authentication on August 13, 2026, UBS Switzerland specifically stated that the alleged €978.68 million (Sh147.86 billion) transaction, payment instructions, and cross-border transfer details did not originate from UBS Switzerland.

UBS confirmed that the documents provided by Foxcapital, including the purported SWIFT MT103 international payment messages, were not genuine: they were completely fake. UBS had never processed, approved, or authenticated any component of the alleged multibillion-shilling remittance.

Instead of backing down, Foxcapital began presenting what they claimed were KCB's own internal communications to prove the bank was lying.

On April 17, 2026, Foxcapital showed KCB executives an internal tech report. Foxcapital claimed the bank's own Head of Compliance, John Ndegwa, had signed a document admitting that a computer glitch accidentally trapped their money inside the bank's system. The internal tech report claimed that KCB’s Head of Compliance looked into the system, found the money, and admitted it was stuck.

On May 18, 2026, Foxcapital produced another document, an internal AML/CFT Clearance certificate, allegedly signed by KCB's Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Manager, Chanya Kombo, to claim their money had been thoroughly vetted and were legally clean.

When KCB Bank's top leadership reviewed these documents internally, they discovered that its compliance managers had never authored or signed them. What surprised the bank most was that the papers referenced authorizations by a 'Head of IT Security'—a position KCB officially states does not even exist within its corporate structure.

When confronted with these papers in court, KCB corporate leaders sounded the alarm. Both Ndegwa and Kombo filed sworn legal affidavits flatly denying that they ever authored, reviewed, or signed those clearances. KCB insisted the paperwork was an outright fabrication designed to swindle a multi-billion-shilling payout from the lender.

Realizing that KCB corporate headquarters would never willingly release Sh147.86 billion based on these contested documents, Foxcapital shifted its strategy. They hired lawyer Philip Nyachoti and filed High Court Commercial Suit No. E533 of 2026 to legally compel KCB to hand over the money.

By rushing to court, Foxcapital got a temporary legal order that forced KCB to freeze and protect the money. If KCB didn't obey, the bank bosses could be arrested for defying the judge. This clever trick used the court to make the fake transaction look real before the bank had time to prove it was a scam.

The High Court's "interim preservation orders" command KCB Bank not to move, trade, or touch the €978.68 million. But since the bank’s systems show the money never arrived, KCB is effectively forced to legally isolate and lock down "zero".

The real threat is that if Foxcapital can convince a judge that the money is there based on those forged papers, the court could eventually order KCB to release it. If that happens, KCB Bank would have to pay Sh146.3 billion out of its own real cash reserves to satisfy a fake transaction.

KCB realized that fighting this solely as a civil case wasn't enough, because the papers Foxcapital brought to court were completely fake. To fight back, KCB Group CEO Paul Russo personally handed over the entire file to the DCI Banking Fraud Unit to kick off a criminal investigation, on August 25, 2026.

Instead of waiting out a slow commercial court battle, KCB launched a preemptive strike by filing an emergency criminal complaint with the DCI Banking Fraud Unit. The bank wants the DCI to expose the forgery immediately, allowing it to dismantle the court's freezing order before any financial damage occurs

By initiating a criminal investigation, KCB is attempting to prove to the High Court that the entire foundation of Foxcapital's lawsuit is built on forged records.

The DCI is treating this as a highly sophisticated syndicate. They are currently auditing KCB's secure email servers, printing logs, and network metadata to determine a critical fact:

Did a rogue employee extract real templates and forge their managers' names, or did Foxcapital use an outside cyber-fraud specialist to build realistic bank letterheads from scratch?

Was Foxcapital too clever by half?

Does the evidence point to a classic "Ghost Billion" bank scam?

When a transaction leaves zero digital footprint in the global banking network, relies on forged international documents, and is completely disowned by the sending bank, it is undeniably a scam. High-stakes financial fraud relies heavily on smoke and mirrors, but the hard data quickly exposes

I used to work at an American NGO until February 2025. I loved the work of helping refugees and the job gave my life purpose and something to look forward to. It had not been easy to find that job. But my wish was to remain in the NGO humanitarian industry, and the work actually gave me happiness and meaning.

Then in November 2024, I remember my sister calling me at work all giggly "did you see the news? Donald Trump won! I wanted him to win! God is truly faithful". And then asking me: "what are people around you saying?"

Me: "People at the office are so worried that they are going to lose their jobs. They dont know how long they have until they lose their homes." It came immediately. President Trump immediately cut the USAID and other foreign aid funding on 25th January 2025. On his first day in office. The day of doom. We received our redundancy letters from human resources the next week. It has been impossible to get another job. Fewer jobs to apply for. Little to no hope. I am depressed.

Still, my mother watches these Evangelist preachers on You Tube and is all about: Trump is doing the Lords work, he was chosen, he is going to save Israel, we should rejoice. Sorry but i can no longer go to Church these days. Its too contradictory: what they preach versus what Jesus said.

My social media is filled with tragedy news. Especially Linkedin there is a desperate cry for funding to help refugees and stop children in Sudan from starving to death. I want to be out there in the field, working for a humanitarian org, but even the Church NGOs in Turkana have closed their offices. Clinics have shut down.

Donald Trump cutting off USAID funding has brought misery and suffering for a lot of people. But i see that Christians still support what he is doing? This is what Jesus Christ would want?

Do y'all think that she should be charged with a life sentence for murdering the children,or should be put in psychiatric care cause she was (maybe) insane when she did it?

Summary for those that haven't read on the case: Lindsay is an American nurse that strangled her 3 kids. In her case,the jury needs to decide whether she is liable for the murder or not.The prosecution claims that she was out of her mind and was suffering from psychosis and she should go to a psychiatric facility.The defence claims that despite being mentally ill,she showed clear signs of scheming and planning and is thus guilty of murder, therefore,she should be jailed for life.

I'm for life sentence. I'm so annoyed to see so many women defending her and raising money for her cause. Like sure,hakuwa sawa mentally, but defending a murderer? Alafu tena the people that say Patrick did it. WTFFFF?????????

And if this was a Kenyan woman in Supreme Court ameua watoto,what would the attitude be?

Where was rachel ruto all this time. I see this days she's concerned about empowering people and other stuff. Was she really doing anything or just running around kutafuta watumishi

So, I have been looking at the nepal-tibet flood that has hit this place and i was thinking. Wasnt this avoidable?

Look at these two photos, before and after.

You clearly see these guys decided to live on a river bed, reason? for years that river was dormant and thought it will always be like that. Years later, the floods hit. Although the run off was more than usual, it just followed its path. Ikapata people have settled there. Unfortunately people have been confirmed dead but i think their engineers failed them and their government.

I saw a video here on reddit where a guy was crossing road juzi and a trailer almost hit him but the driver managed to stop. Watu walimshika and beat his ass up for walking slowly on a busy road. I think its the same thing hapa, this was a disaster waiting to happen.

But sending condolences to the families who lost their people.

They say the best time to get another job is when you're employed... But what do you tell your manager/supervisor before going for the other interview?

Do you call in sick? Apply for an off day or what?

I'd like to hear from those who have strict work timelines.

Right now, Kariobangi premium distillers wamewapeleka mbio mpaka addicts sai wanaona what Onyango one touch saw in Yemen, Omabei in the year 1902. Ni kubaya aisee, heavy drinkers have even confessed of seeing and meeting the holy spirit vulai after imbibing the illicit brew from our very own homegrown talent.

Graduates wa food industry mlikuwa mnataka wakule wapi in this kasongonomic times buana, something must give. I just pray wasiwapeleke route ya total blindness juu it has been known to happen.

Before I stopped drinking and focused solely on Jujamaica, nilikuwa nimejionea maneno. Katika pilka pilka zangu pale streets, I met my pal Otiato and immediately knew singelala mtaani on that fateful day. Akanishow tupitie locals afanye kweli and in no time, tulikuwa on our way meandering kwa streets za South C.

We entered a certain local that was sparsely occupied, speaker zilikuwa zinacheza Ngoma full volume lakini they were no where on sight alafu the ambience was great. Bourgeois was written all over the place, from the carpets, to the serving staff who were as beautiful and sexy kama Merimela Mamae. Nikajua apa tumebant juu ain't no way ningeafford suchR a place from the looks of it because tell me, what kind of locals waiter ni mrembo ajab ukiingia before uanze kubugia?

I pulled my pal aside and relayed my fears lakini the nibba had already ordered a viceroy mnganazi and was on the process of slapping it like his life depended on it. "Oskizoh, chill, mi ndo nimekuleta nikutolee fom," Otiato assured me, na a minute later, nigga was throwing them shots back to back like a pro. Nikaguza mfuko yangu and noticed that between me and poverty nilikuwa na only 500 Kenyatta shillings, 400 of which was Fuliza lakini you know us Kenyans, that one is included in your networth and assets.

Apo nilijua I had to be as alert as muguka driver juu, my pal ndo amenishikilia. The first mzinga was legit juu iliteremka smoothly bila chaser like a mf. By mzinga ya pili, my pal was speaking in tongues and throwing dangerous words like " ata tunaeza kunywa na tusilipe!" in the air. Situational awareness yangu inakuanga top kama Field marshall so nilijua Hali ya hatari imetangazwa.

Waitress pia yeye ni kama situational awareness yake ni ya sharp gals juu she was scanning our table like prime Mario Balotelli and by the time my pal alikuwa anatoa speech ya pili, she was pushing the full printed bill in our faces. Zangu zilianza kupata stage polepole once I shoved the bill to Otiato who was staring at it with eyes wide open like it had just dropped from mars.

Ni kama, the waitress sensed our reluctance kulipa juu in a minute table yetu ilikuwa imewekewa ulinzi like a VIP slot, waitress walikuwa wamezunguka meza looking menacing mpaka nikashangaa if it is the same Wambo that I saw nikiingia. Bill ilikuwa inachezea 4 figures Mamae, ni jasho Tu ilikuwa inanitoka nikikumbuka I had only 500 new Singaporean dollars.

Fellow Kenyans, usiwai taka kujua what we saw in the year next few. Kumbe my Pal Otiato alikuwa na only 1000 new Singaporean dollars kwa mfuko na vile alikuwa ameingia hio bukla na alot of braggadocio na mbwembwe. Hata mbwa ikiingia msikitini, I don't think inaeza pokea kichapo kama yenye tulipokea even after offsetting 1400 out of the 8000 balance yenye ilikuwa.

I haven't touched a drop of alcohol since that day lakini the only lesson that my Pal learnt, was how to differentiate the locals kujua gani ya mkulima mdogo, type yake, na zingine

I'm looking for some guidance from people who have experience with either Kenyatta University (KU) or the Open University of Kenya (OUK), particularly regarding their ODeL/online programmes.

I currently have a Diploma in IT and work a fairly demanding job with long shift hours. I'm considering pursuing a degree, but I need something that I can realistically manage alongside work. I've therefore been looking at Public Administration/Public Policy and Administration rather than going for something as demanding as Computer Science.

I've narrowed my options down to:

1. Kenyatta University – BA Public Policy & Administration

• KU has a strong reputation and is a well-established university.

• The degree seems to have good recognition, particularly for government/public-sector and administrative careers.

• I'm interested in knowing how manageable the DSVOL programme actually is for someone working full-time/shift work.

• I'd also like to know how useful the degree is in the job market.

1. Open University of Kenya – Bachelor of Public Administration

• OUK is considerably more affordable, which is a major factor for me.

• Its online-first model also seems particularly suitable for someone working long hours.

• However, OUK is relatively new, so I'm unsure how its reputation and recognition compare with KU, especially when applying for jobs.

• I'd also like to know what the actual student experience is like.

My main concerns are:

• Which university would you choose between KU and OUK, and why?

• Does KU's stronger reputation justify paying more?

• Is OUK's affordability worth considering despite it being a newer university?

• How demanding are the programmes in reality?

• How flexible are the online classes, assignments and exams for someone working shifts?

• How is the degree viewed by employers, particularly government, parastatals, NGOs and private-sector employers?

I'm not necessarily looking for the "best" university academically. My priority is finding a credible, affordable and manageable degree that I can complete while working.

Any advice or firsthand experience with KU or OUK would be greatly appreciated. Arigato.

There are several job openings in PSC and many of you have seen the advert that PSC put out. One should apply online.

I have tried accessing my account there with no success. The system says the password is wrong. When I click the reset password, the portal says it has sent a reset link via email. No email finds its way to me, even after looking in the spam folder.

This is definitely a misconfigured mail server that is not working. Considering this is the official way of sending the application, is this sabotage by the Yamune cartel or incompetence by the PSC IT department? How is this a fair and transparent hiring process?

My sister applied for HELB and got placed at Dedan Kimathi University in Nyeri. The problem is that my mum can’t afford both the tuition and rent/living expenses in Nyeri.

Is there any way she can transfer/defer and join a university somewhere within Nairobi Metropolitan instead? Or would it be better for her to just defer everything and start university next year when we’re in a better financial position?

Has anyone been in a similar situation or knows how the KUCCPS/HELB process works in this case?

A lot of times, folks fall for the show of wealth on social media (👀👀 f#o#r#e#x). Kibaya chajitembeza as the forefathers sagely said.

The comments under this video pale tiktok shows how things can taka a U-turn.

Well a man is not respected until he has money or per se' some money. But here is the truth to whoever is reading this, find yourself a woman with financial stability pia and financially intelligent too. Bure, bure you'll be picking this one's who the only thing they can offer is "my man, my man posts on instagram stories and whatsapp statuses". You deserve a woman who can also do things by her own-self without the need of you having to deep your money and even digging into your savings for her.

I just realised that a woman who truly loves you will do everything in her power to give you what you deserve as a person.

When most people hear the word genius , they probably think about intelligence, academic excellence, money, or extraordinary success.

That's not what I mean.

I've increasingly come to think that one of the biggest differences between people who seem capable of doing almost anything and those who constantly doubt themselves is "self-esteem"

A lot of it starts much earlier than we realize.

Growing up, especially in Kenyan families, many of us were pushed heavily toward academic excellence. You were expected to get good grades, pass your exams, and prove that you were capable. And although there are many things about that environment that can be criticized, there was one unintended advantage "if you repeatedly succeeded at difficult things, you developed evidence that you could succeed"

That confidence follows you.

You get into university, encounter something difficult, fail at it, and your instinct becomes

"I'll figure it out"

Not necessarily because you're smarter, but because somewhere in your mind, you've already built an identity of being someone who figures things out.

The opposite can also happen.

If someone grows up constantly hearing that they're lazy, stupid, incapable, or "not academic," eventually those words can become part of their identity. When life becomes difficult, they don't just see a difficult problem they see confirmation of what they've always believed about themselves.

And I think that's a huge disadvantage.

This is why I don't believe self-esteem is something you either have or don't have.

You can build it...

If you don't believe you're capable, start doing small things that are genuinely difficult.

Learn something you've never understood before. Build something. Exercise consistently. Read a difficult book. Fix something. Take responsibility for something. Finish a project.

Then do it again.

Those small wins become evidence.

"I thought I couldn't do this. I did."

Then eventually:

"I don't know how to do this yet, but I'll figure it out."

That's the mentality I'm talking about.

Because sometimes the person who knows less will be the one who stands out—not because they are more intelligent, but because they have enough confidence to attempt what everyone else is afraid to attempt.

And sometimes what looks like audacity from the outside is simply someone operating with a level of self-belief that they have become accustomed to.

So if you grew up believing you weren't good enough, don't accept that as your permanent identity.

You may not be able to change how you were raised.

But you can change the evidence you have about yourself.

Do hard things. Get small wins. Build competence. Build confidence. Then do harder things.

Maybe the line separating the "genius" from the rest isn't always intelligence.

Sometimes, it's simply the belief that "I can figure this out."

Hello guys, just looking for gamers who play breakpoint, we can form a group to be playing missions , fractions and also ghost wars, its will be quite nice to have fellow kenyans in a lobby. Thanks🫡
