If you started flying after September 2001, you missed out on an experience. This weekend marks the 20th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 (9/11) attacks, when terrorists hijacked four aircraft to crash them into landmark American buildings. - @bankelele
It was a day that changed the aviation industry forever.
People who grew up and started flying in the last 20 years may not know that the requirements of several security checks, removing shoes and not carrying liquids through airports and onto planes may still seem abnormal for those who had flown before 9/11.

A booming shadow industry of Twitter influencers for hire funded by faceless agencies has been behind the highly co-ordinated harassment and disinformation campaigns aimed at changing the country’s political direction as we head to the 2022 polls. - @NationAfrica
Twitter has suspended 100 users from Kenya after an investigation showed that their accounts had violated the platforms manipulation and spam policy through tweeting pre-determined hashtags meant to misinform the public or attack certain personalities.
The decision by Twitter was taken after a three-month investigation by American internet provision company Mozilla. The probe showed that Kenyan influencers are being paid between Sh1,000 to Sh1,500 to participate in three campaigns per day on Twitter.

In December last year, while on his death-bed, Dr Stephen Mogusu managed to contact @NationAfrica. In a long message, he left behind a grim, detailed picture of what President Uhuru’s ‘golden baby’ -- the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) programme -- had become. - @LeonLidigu
All the gallant frontline warrior wanted was for things to be better for many Kenyans as well as the doctors seeking affordable health services, but eight months after his death, things seem to have gone from bad to worse.
“I contracted the virus ... sasa niko (I am in) self-isolation ... I have never seen death this close in my life…" were some of the last sentences Dr. Mogusu could piece together before the virus overpowered his body.

Human’s impulse to communicate, stay in touch with the world, and the advances in technology, have had a profound effect on the evolution of social media. - @sokodirectory
