Instead of hoping for one leader to change, I now pray for many lizards who will expose the truth—so Kenyans can finally see what’s happening and make a better decision in 2027.

That’s when my prayer changed. Instead of praying for Ruto to change, I now pray for transparency to consume this government.

Maybe the Auditor General is Lizard Two? 🤔

When they returned to the UK, the colonial emissary realized he had forgotten his records.

With nothing to present, the explorer had to step in and deliver the truth.

And just like that—one lizard swallowed the other.

The second lizard was an explorer who tagged along. Unlike the emissary, he wasn’t there to manipulate reports—he was more of a tourist.

As the emissary wrote false reports, the explorer talked to the people and recorded the truth.

The first lizard was a white emissary of the colonial administration. His job? To collect data from the colonies and report back to the UK, painting a picture of how well the colonial government was "caring" for its subjects.
Of course, his data was fabricated.

This reminded me of Murathi Kairitu, a Kikuyu girl who made a prophecy in the 1940s. She once said:

"Two lizards will come, and one will swallow the other."

It sounds bizarre, but here’s how it played out:

That’s when it hit me: Christianity rarely delves into justice. You sin, repent, and move on—rarely is accountability emphasized.

As I was praying, I found myself saying:
"God, you changed Saul to Paul, please change Ruto into a Paul." The moment those words left my mouth, I immediately realized what I had done—and I stopped praying.

This morning, as I was doing my prayers, I started praying for Kenya. I’ve said before that I left religion and embraced the spirituality of my ancestors. But old habits die hard—religion was ingrained in me from birth.

I pray for Ruto. A thread 🧵

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Leaflets dropped by the colonial government to instill fear amongst my people... They fought for 7 years and never surrendered until we got independence...

No😅😅😅 this whole year i have escaped my thoughts through music.

The Intern Who Created Spotify Wrapped’s Story Format Never Got Her Due Meet artist Jewel Ham, who designed the Spotify Wrapped social format that we're all addicted to as an intern — and like so many other interns, she never truly got her due.

Ah Spotify Wrapped is out.

Possibly one of the best marketing stunts of the digital age, as people post their Wrapped across their social feeds.

And the idea to turn it into a story was supposedly created by an intern who never got credit for it:

Someone called this mass exodus from Twitter ‘the fall of the Broman Empire’ and I died laughing. 💀

I am so glad that most of the sayings I grew up with were passed down from the Mau Mau war & beyond. I deeply appreciate everyone who records Kikuyu history—we learn so much from y'all. Side note: my hate for githeri runs deeper than I ever imagined 🤣 i dare say it's spiritual.

4. It was inspiring to learn about the resilience of Field Marshal Muthoni Kirima. Additionally, I enjoyed discovering bits of the love story between Dedan Kimathi and Mukami Kimathi.

we should cut it in half and share. I have grown up with that saying, and I'm glad to learn it originated from the integrity of the Mau Mau.

3. Awa has always said that you don't just eat with anyone. Sharing a meal is like 'igogona,' and Murathi Kairetu has reinforced this.

Takeaways:
1. The Mau Mau war lasted for seven years and was far more serious than often depicted. (I cried while listening to the story of Dedan Kimathi's tragic episode).

2. Maitu always used to say:If there's only one bean left,

So ICC is just there for good vibes and InshAllah?
