Be something – don't just be part of the landscape. We demean ourselves by accepting grouping of Africans into â tribesâ. It beggars belief and intellectual acuity that official government documents and websites still refer to the distinct and proud people of this republic as tribes. The media and the political class, on the other hand, have given it the social capital and legitimised it into our linguistic staple, to the extent that being referred to as â tribeâ is normal and de rigueur. What justifies ...

Be something – don't just be part of the landscape. Where is Chinaâ s voice in this election? Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte once remarked that China was a dormant giant and that when it awakes, the whole world will tremble. Well it turns out that those words were prophetic. China has awoken and the effect reverberates across the world. There is a reason why the position taken by the UK and the US on the possible election of Mr Uhuru Kenyatta and Mr William Ruto is premature. Apologists for the West treacher...

Be something – don't just be part of the landscape. Critical lessons leaders can learn from errors of past swearing-in ceremonies. Tuesdayâ s inauguration of President-elect Uhuru Kenyatta is a momentous national occasion that marks the passing of the leadership baton. For the incoming leader, it is an initiation rite that marks a start of a journey fraught with challenges yet with a sense of a dream fulfilled. Recent swearing-in ceremonies leave a lot to be desired. In 2007, the ceremony was surreptitio...

Be something – don't just be part of the landscape. My Personal and Political Credo. I salute the resolve and courage of the people of this country. Kenyans personify the face of faith and constitute the great arsenal of resilience. They have, I believe, refused to die while on their knees, but would rather on their feet. This is redoubtable gallantry! I believe freedom is worth dying for. As a nation we must love freedom, and set it free! I believe that good leadership is the silver bullet to our nation...

Be something – don't just be part of the landscape. Student visa restrictions: Time to wake up. The imposition of visa restrictions to prospective students from Africa and other developing countries by the West in the recent past has not come as a surprise. The United Kingdom and the United States have, in all respects, placed a calibrated â moratoriumâ on international student entry to their educational institutions. This move comes notwithstanding the fact that the income raised through student visa ap...
