#AmKenyan 1. Good morning #KOT. Last week, I did a post pleading not to be added to any more wassup groups to help fundraise for needy children who couldn't join high school as I was stretched and unable to help all. That plea brought my way what I call a MIRACLE.
A THREAD.
#AmKenyan 2. In 2010, I lost my sister Wanjiru. She suddenly fell ill and upon hospitalisation, was wrongly diagnosed, given antibiotics and discharged. She past away in her sleep a day after leaving hospital. Pneumonia killed her. A treatable illness took Shiro from us.
#AmKenyan 3. From when we were kids, Shiro had a strong passion for kids. Especially those who were from a slum near where we lived. I remember her taking food from our house to go feed them and wanted to be a pre-school teacher when she grew up. She did become a teacher.

#AmKenyan 1. #KOT Yesterday, at 6pm, a head-on collision almost happened because of cars overlapping and using the wrong side of the road to avoid traffic. This brought us to a 20 minute long standstill.
I decided to take photos of the cars.
Here is car One: KBZ 602N
A THREAD:
#AmKenyan 2. This is the point they were making the illegal turn. There was no policeman present. When they couldn't join the traffic from here, they drove straight on and forced their way back to the right lane.
Car two: KBY 025A
#AmKenyan 3: Most of them were using the illegal right turn from the NAIROBI hospital direction opposite CITAM. They then had to force their way back into the right lane causing a back-up all the way to hurlingham.

Car three: KCP 544X

#AmKenyan 1. We have systems in Kenya. Though weak and easily compromised, as law abiding citizens we must test them and demand for improvements. Our leadership continues to abuse power and ignore our constitution. This is what we have been dealing with this week.
A THREAD:
#AmKenyan 2. Last Saturday, while attending a family event in Muranga, I received a frantic call from @atty_kim asking where I was because she had received a threatening phone call from @MikeSonko about a post she had copy-pasted on our FB page Buyer Beware.
#AmKenyan 3. The post alleged there was corruption happening at City Hall. Atty declined to bring the post down. What followed were more threatening calls to the other admin @JacksonNjeru254 and a sustained online campaign to troll us using several pseudo accounts

#AmKenyan 1. #KOT, @DCI_Kenya, @ODPP_KE, @PoliceKE, @NPSOfficial_KE. I have cases where several young business people need your urgent intervention to get their money back from Hon Mututho's sons, who conned them using FAKE CHEQUES
A THREAD!

#STOPTheseTHIEVES
#AmKenyan 2. Last week I received a call from a young contractor who was conned by the Mututhos over 1 million. He has reported to @NPSOfficial_KE @PoliceKE
They asked for a huge % upfront in bribes. His small biashara has since collapsed
#ArrestTheMututhos
#STOPTheseTHIEVES
#AmKenyan 3. @DCI_Kenya @ODPP_KE @PoliceKE @NPSOfficial_KE. This is how the Mututhos do it. They use their connections to get construction contracts from @KenolKobil. They then advertise for sub-contractors to apply to do the work.

#AmKenyan 1. Hello #KOT. Earlier today, I posted about a certain 'powerful' SHEIKH who is a serial paedophile and has never faced justice. This is the story as it has been unfolding since he was arrested on Tuesday evening.

@ODPP_KE
#AmKenyan 2. The @NubianRights reached out to a mutual friend seeking support over a case they were working on that they felt will not go far if the Human Rights sector did not throw their might on it.
(A SHEIKH had been raping and impregnating his victims)
#JusticeForFA
#KOT
#AmKenyan 3. My friend called. I was reluctant at first because I had made a conscious decision to STOP taking on #CHILDRape cases. I was continuously threatened and many cases resulted in the abusers walking because I lacked resources to follow through. Sickening!

#AmKenyan 1. I will attempt to simplify the #SwitchOffKPLC petitions that are being withdrawn. Look at the ASKS and question if the withdrawals will achieve what the campaign intended to from the onset, which was JUSTICE for ALL WaKenya
Will withdrawals #STOPTheseThieves?

#AmKenyan 1. Dear #KOT. I want to remind you it took 2yrs 8months for you to campaign for #FreeSSudan4. It is because of you that they are now with their families. Your consistent support saved their lives.
With this in mind let us look at the #SwitchOffKPLC
Campaign.
A THREAD
#AmKenyan 2. Are we cowards, ignorant for insisting #SwitchOffKPLC campaign, which is about ALL Kenyans, cannot be pushed under the rug because of a VAGUE 'Out of court settlement' that doesn't STOP the CRIMINAL outfit that is @KenyaPower from exploiting us?
#STOPTheseTHIEVES
#AmKenyan 3. During #FreeSSudan4 campaign, there was a core team of activists and family members that were strategising, holding meetings, planning for action to take. The ENTIRE #KOT could not be a part of that team. That does not mean you were not IMPORTANT

#AmKenyan 1. Let me start by saying I am extremely pissed off by mainstream media reporting the story of a woman who was asked to go breastfeed in the TOILET without naming the restaurant! SHAME ON YOU! #BreastFeedingIsARight and that is why #WeMustProtest #KOT

A THREAD
#AmKenyan 2. Breastfeeding is a partnership between the child and mother. It has different phases that can be JOYFUL, PAINFUL, FRUSTRATING or DEPRESSING. When it is really bad, a mother SCREAMS or nurses NIPPLE WOUNDS and MASTITIS. #WeMustProtest
#BreastFeedingIsARight #KOT
#AmKenyan 3. MASTITIS: For those who grew up MASHAMBANI, and had to wake up at 4.30 a.m to milk cows like I did. We most likely know this infection as something that happens to COWS. Women get it too when they do not breastfeed. #BreastFeedingIsARight #WeMustProtest #KOT
