In my first few minutes at JKIA, 3 different employees told me they’re worried about the proposed transfer of airport operations to Indian firm Adani GoK and/or Kenya Airports Authority don’t appear to have the support of the staff or the public

First time on the Meru-Nairobi highway. Whoa! Miraa and Mogoka drivers are a menace to other road users. Is there a way to keep Miraa and Mogoka fresh during transportation that could help tone down the crazy driving?

The Amerus are wonderful people. They treated us to delicious stone-ground porridge and gave us the girl too. So we danced like Manyalas do.

The most overlooked addiction is our addiction to adrenaline and cortisol. And social media makes it easier than ever to get our "emotional hit."

Never has there been a greater “let them eat cake” than KK government, if they aren’t flaunting their new cars, it’s their new houses, or their kids in expensive international schools or pictures in private health facilities all while their boss tells everyone tighten your belts

Devastating news about the ransacking of the national museum in Sudan which was one of the richest collections of African cultural history on the continent.

Pumpkin is often called an orphaned African crop, but is it? Africans value it as a superfood Labelling it 'orphaned' leads to genome editing, supposedly to improve its nutritional value Eventually, the commercialization of new, modified & expensive seeds. #seedsovereignty

I’ve convinced them at home to switch from maize meal to mabele 😃😃🙏🏾🙏🏾🌍🌍 Sometimes we have it as porridge in the morning or pap at night Please guys make the switch. Highly processed maize meal is not our friend.

P.M.John Nasike Claire Akello AFSA GRAIN Agroecology Fund FoodSovereigntyGhana Million Belay BIBA Kenya Nnimmo Dr. Vandana Shiva As usual, it's worse than that. Crop-breeders created orphans with their hybrid commodity crops, promoting "adoption" of new varieties to replace/displace the "orphans." Now they want to turn the orphans into "improved" commodity crops, as if they were defective. AFSA

In my quest to avoid foods with high pesticide residues, I use: 1. Amaranth/terere and pumpkin leaves as veggies (avoiding managu etc they've been commercialized too 2. Banana and pumpkin for baby food (avoiding potatoes) 3. Spring onion and grated carrots in place of tomatoes
