The Return of Donald Trump: A Portrait of Power and Defiance.

Image
On January 20, 2025, the world witnessed an extraordinary moment as Donald J. Trump was inaugurated once again, marking an unprecedented return to the highest office in the United States. His 2025 inauguration was not merely a political event; it was a statement, a defiant assertion of resilience, grit, and unyielding ambition.  Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance at the 2025 inauguration ceremony. Against the backdrop of history, the official portrait unveiled shortly before the ceremony added to the gravitas of the day. More than just a picture, it was a manifesto - an image that echoed Trump’s journey and the battles he had fought. In this new official portrait, Trump’s piercing gaze seems to cut through the noise of political opposition and the chaos of the years that preceded his return. His scowl, purposeful and commanding, speaks to a man hardened by adversity, unafraid to confront the challenges that lie ahead.  Dressed in a deep blue suit with a flag pin, he is...

A baby rescued alive from rubble after Turkey earthquake; as search for survivors continues

 A 7.7 magnitude tremor struck the Pazarcik disctrict of Kahramanmaras province in Turkey which in about nine hours later, a 7.6 magnitude quake centered and affected several other provinces. 

The earthquake was also felt in several countries in the region including Lebanon and Syria.

At least 3,432 people have been confirmed dead whereas 21,103 are nursing injuries in 10 provinces of Turkey after the two strong earthquakes thrusted the southern part of  the country on Monday. 

More than 8,000 people have been rescued. 

More than 2,100 miners have been sent off to help in search and rescue efforts in the affected areas.

 Disaster teams from North West Turkey rescued a six-month-old baby who was under the rubble for about 33 hours in quake-hit Hatay province. The rescue workers pulled out the 'poor' baby who was barely crying and appeared to be dirty but unscarred.



The mother emerged shortly after, able to walk in Hatay province.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has declared a three-month state of emergency in the ten provinces hit by the massive quakes.

The second earthquake was big enough to bring down more buildings, and like the first, was felt across the region, endangering rescuers struggling to pull casualities from the wreckage.

President Erdogan also confirmed that 5,000 health workers have been dispatched to southern Turkey provinces to help in rescuing the lives; whereas 54,000 tents and 102,000 beds sent to the earthquake-hit regions.

Praying with and for them 🙏.

Kenya's Leadership Shocker: Kindiki Takes Deputy President Role in Mid-Term Power Shift!

Image
It was a momentous moment for Kenyan politics: Professor Kithure Kindiki took the oath of office, earlier today at KICC Nairobi, and became the Deputy President of the country, going down in history as one of the few officials to assume such a high office before the end of an electoral term. Far from the usual five-year election cycle, this presents a new dawn in Kenya's political landscape, testing the stability of governance structures in the country. The swearing-in of Kindiki is significant, not only because transitions at the executive level at mid-term periods are rare but also for what it represents: adaptability in governance amidst an evolving political climate.  Conventionally, a deputy president should serve a full term with the president except in circumstances beyond their control. This appointment in the middle of the cycle has, however, driven the point home that leadership changes can occur through constitutional processes and not necessarily through electoral cycle...

Known for its diverse culture, rich agricultural lands, and strategic importance, Meru is now becoming equally known for its political drama. The past months have seen Meru being a hotbed of political intrigue, power play, and even an attempted ouster of its governor. But what is really happening in Meru, and why is it so significant? The Political Landscape of Meru Meru's politics have always been colorful, characterized by a mix of traditional leadership structures and modern political dynamics. Historically, the region has been governed by a blend of community elders, known as the Njuri Ncheke, and elected officials. This unique interplay has often created a delicate balance between respecting traditional governance and embracing the democratic process. However, in the past few years, this balance has been disrupted. The county has experienced rising political tension...
