Dr. Ho Yinsen OK Then Unfortunately, that's the story across African govts. GoK currently lacks imagination with Nairobi and I don't see that changing if they decided to move the capital to Mombasa.

Obviously Mombasa needs way more investment than it currently gets today.

Three cheers for this Vijaya Ramachandran piece:'When rich countries with well-fed populations oppose greater use of synthetic fertilizer in Africa, it smacks of the same green colonialism that is putting a brake on other aspects of African development in the name of climate policy'

FYI The NYPD Intel division was all over bin Laden, the taliban and many other terrorist groups long before the Feds figured things out. They were the first to call me after 9/11. So kudos to the guys that figure things out first. nyc.gov/site/nypd/bure…

This is the MV Osman Khan, one of the world's biggest, supplying power to the grid in Takoradi, Ghana.

Despite some reflexive anti-police sentiment on X, formerly known as Twitter, it seems like the NYPD did a good job with a good amount of professionalism and cleared an occupied building without any significant injuries.

South-on-south skilled migration is an interesting phenomenon.

Jamaican hospitals recruit heavily from Nigeria and Filipino hospitals recruit heavily from Nepal. Ironically, both countries have a long history of sending labor, incl. skilled labor, to the West.
