It has ended in LR Mwilu, PhD! I navigated poor health, debilitating grief and overall life wreckage for the better part of my study. I fell so far behind and remained with one chance to have my proposal approved or get deregistered. Got it at first (and last) attempt 👆🏽#PhDone

I picked these out mid August for parallel reading in addition to the ones I’m re-reading and those I never finish 🙃 Turns are unequal so I’ve finished three from this pile and still reading the rest. Not yet ‘free’ but excited to now have windows to read for fun again 🥳

Happy 61st Independence Day to my beautiful home, Zambia 🇿🇲 1. Mosi-oa-Tunya 2. Kalambo 3. Chishimba 4. Kaela 💚❤️🖤🧡

A lovely afternoon of good Zambian food, networking and learning from Dr. Dora Siliya-PhD and others. Excited for my signed copy of “Minding My Father’s Country”… I can’t wait to read it!

It was such a pleasure meeting you, Dr Lwanga. Thank you for joining us at the power of purpose lunch.

This is common, unfortunately. I even recently engaged a person with a large audience here when he posted false and alarmist info and, to my surprise, he ignored all correction/links to factual position etc but continued responding to and retweeting all others agreeing with him.

My favourite day this October. ❤️🙏🏾 This grad finale ‘speech’ captures part of my thoughts and feelings on the day: tinyurl.com/dyp2zh54 #PhDone

For nearly 20 years now, whenever I hear/see Mamdani I just think “bifurcated state” etc. I didn’t even realise the father-son relationship until quite recently. Then on my way home today I listened to some Ugandans reacting to the election outcome on BBC WS. Interesting indeed.

Couldn’t celebrate 101 without some Dalmatians 😆

Zambia 1000 Summit 'Who are we as a people?' Join us this Friday, 28th November, at Mulugunshi, KK wing.

Hello from Türkiye 🇹🇷 Today I went on a Bosphorus sunset cruise and toured the strait’s European and Asian sides, saw and learned more about several of Istanbul’s historic landmarks (been to a few since I got here), and of course watched the sun set on that stunning skyline.

My vehicle was tampered with at Pinnacle Mall and a door damaged. Before I even realised what had happened, I noticed that a car I had left nearby (occupants’ activity ‘redacted’) had moved closer. This was around 5 pm by a busy entrance with several security officers in sight.

Happy New Year! I’m glad you all made it.

A certain PnP this morning 👇🏽 With some ‘lucky’ on my side, I might just find a ‘unity’ of fresh eggs on promotion.

I wonder who the new Whistledown is? 1. Varley? She’s clearly a mini Lord Varys in Mayfair and can write (forgery level too!) 2. Alice? Happy Queen = happy life. 3. Eloise? Woke, talented, ‘outsider’ 4. Cressida? New literary convert + second attempt? But no lol. #BridgertonS4
