Just after overthrowing his father and taking the reins as leader of the Titans, Kronos learned of a prophesy that suggested his fate would suffer a similar coup d’état at the hands of his children. - @NationAfrica

He vowed to never let his children become powerful to challenge him for the throne. Kronos would devour any child his wife Rhea gave birth to.

Eventually, Rhea managed to hide one child by handing the supreme titan a stone wrapped in cloth. The child, Zeus, would eventually overthrow his father.

As families of the 35 people who died after their bus crashed into the notorious River Nithi come to terms with the loss of their loved ones, concern is shifting to the lack of implementation of rules that would have made PSVs safer in case of an accident. - @NationAfrica

@Modern_Coast

The @Modern_Coast bus that was headed to Mombasa from Meru was almost torn into two on impact, after the driver lost control of the vehicle, which swerved off the bridge.

While it’s still too early to say what the cause of the accident was or whether the near disintegration of the vehicle’s body should be of concern, a look at recent accidents involving long distance PSVs shows a similar trend.

Besides tribalism, some people that I worked with went to unimaginable levels to protect their jobs and other favours. - Lee Njiru
