This life… The most precious of life’s moments are the children — We never forget the exact moment they are born, the first cry, the first splash of pee, which little boys like to do, the first cuddle. God’s gems, the children. Our little loves. Protect them always. 💔🇰🇪🙏🏽

This life… Did y’all see how courtroom chops can take a girl to a global stage? She got into the political arena and delivered punchlines like God’s been preparing her for decades. Black girl, brown girl, she defended our place at the table beautifully. History now records.

This life… Isn’t a fundamental tension in public-private partnerships the fact that the law allows commercial interests and sensibilities to enter the public domain and even control public assets, if for a time? Nauliza tu. ❤️🇰🇪🙏🏽

Ndio, rafiki. Mambo? Commercial actors have an interest in protecting information while the public has an interest in getting the information. And so we dance …. 😅

Interesting… because 30 years is actually what our PPPA prescribes as the upper limit, within which the investor is supposed to have recouped the costs and benefits of their investment. But for the law, commercial sensibility would have been to push for a longer duration.

Interesting, Nelson — because one of the reasons given for PPP is corporate entities are supposed to be more efficient and accountable than pure government owned and operated entities. We obviously can’t say one or other will be perfect, but partnership is could minimize the risk

This life… How many Kenyan private corporations, CEOs and Founders would pass the anti-corrupt practices and labour rights test to qualify to invest in other countries? Nauliza tu. 🤣🙏🏽🇰🇪

When you pay to ride a bus, you acquire a property right, the right to occupy a seat for the duration of the journey. When you pay to lease a house, you also acquire a property right, the right to possess it, for a duration. Now let us go to airports... Property law wewe 🤣🤣

This life… We read legal history for a reason. What happened last time is that the leadership of the judiciary organized additional security for certain unpopular judges and then sat quietly and watched history be the judge. I don’t know how this current chapter will flow.

This life…. Kenya has beautiful mornings and amazing sunsets, but everyone has that morning when you say — I will work with whoever I damn well please. Why? Trust deficit. Let everyone be free. We are needed everywhere. The Lord’s work has no defined boundaries. Do you.

My people have a saying — don’t blame the rain or mud if you fail to go to the shamba to work. And I tell myself — never let what other people do determine whether you work or not. Don’t give away your power to decide.
