During the 2021 @EastAfricanSC, @SafaricomPLC will pilot an IoT powered Telematics solution which integrates with vehicle’s on-board computer, collects information on several parameters that are accumulated and recorded at the end and start of each trip. - @TechTrendsKE
This pilot will provides insights into journey duration, vehicle speed, route info, fuel consumption, driver behaviour. The telematics solution has been installed in Raaji Bharij and his navigator Tauseef Khan’s Ford Mark 1, 1969.
The Smart Vehicle Tracking System pilot is part of a sponsorship deal that has seen @SafaricomPLC commit Kes1M in support of Raaji’s quest for a podium finish at @EastAfricanSC.
FYI: @SafaricomPLC is testing an IoT vehicle tracking system in this year's @EastAfricanSC through a Kes1M sponsorship deal with Raaji Bharji's Ford Mark 1 1969 car. bit.ly/3rH5wM1 via @TechTrendsKE

Farouk Kibet has a baby face – perhaps because of his monolid eyes. But looks, normally, can be deceiving. Farouk, as he is well known, exhibits energy. He exhibits power. And if William Ruto wins the presidency, this will be the man to watch and watch-out. - @johnKamau1
The political history of Kenya is littered with Farouk-types who mushroom and become powerful insiders within the presidency and snowball to what the late Nicholas Biwott, Moi’s former personal assistant, would call ‘Total Man’.
Kenyans still recall Joshua Kulei – the man who rose from a prison warden into a billionaire thanks to his service as President Moi’s personal assistant.

They might have ascended to their positions as a result of death or impeachment of their former bosses, but they are going flat out to craft their own political paths as they seek to retain their seats in the August 9 elections. - @nationafrica
Some of the leaders were plucked from academia or the private sector and introduced to politics as running mates of the governors for regional balancing or to fill in where the gubernatorial candidates were perceived to be weak – politically or administratively.
Bomet's Hillary Barchok
Nyeri's Mutahi Kahiga
Kiambu's James Nyoro
Nairobi's Anne Kananu
Nyamira's Amos Nyaribo (Nyamira) find themselves in the same political predicament.

Prof Barchok, Mr Kahiga and Mr Nyaribo assumed their positions following the deaths of their bosses.

The proposed @CBKKenya digital currency will for the first time allow Kenyans to directly keep cash at the apex bank, placing it in direct competition with commercial banks for deposits. - @BD_Africa
The Kenyan version of the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), whose introduction has been under debate for the last few years, will be exchangeable on a one-to-one basis with physical cash.
It will enable customers to bypass banks, with the CBK taking on a new role of keeping track of holdings, transactions and settlements. The CBDC is being eyed mainly to ease cross-border payments and complement mobile money in the local digital payments space.

On Wednesday, January 26, I received at least three requests on my SIM line, in which some fraudsters somewhere were attempting to register new SIM cards using my national ID number. - @StandardKenya
The first SMS that I received from Safaricom service line 707 was delivered at 12:07pm. It read: “Dear customer, a new number 797XXXX08 is about to be registered under your ID number. Please reply with Yes to continue or NO to cancel the registration.” - @StandardKenya
I quickly pressed: “NO” and, immediately the service line sent back a receipt message, saying: “Dear customer, the new line registration request received under your ID has been cancelled. Thank you.” - @StandardKenya

When business mogul Christopher John Kirubi lived, anyone who asked, heard or saw him knew him to be wealthy. But, how wealthy was he? - @StandardKenya
Other than Forbes, which estimated his wealth to be around Sh40B, it was only God, himself and lawyers who knew how much the businessman who died on June 14, 2021, had amassed, and maybe his children.
Everyone else made a guess based on the finer things in life he had, what he wore and the companies that were associated with him.
