An Escapade to Remember at Sagana’s Mimosa Park

Image
An exquisite bush breakfast under the open skies on Sunday, August 17, 2025, unfurled like a vision from a glossy travel brochure. The cool air held the richness of dew-kissed grass, the aroma of freshly brewed tea curled upwards like a soft invitation, and the golden morning light flowed through the trees. Plates filled with hearty dishes passed around as laughter rang out, louder than the birdsong. For the Merians from Thika Greens, it was more than just a meal; it was a joyful bonding moment, where conversations flowed as freely as the tea, stories sparked endless laughter, and no one really wanted the morning to end. The adventure was far from over. With spirits high and hearts full, the company made its way from the rustic charm of the bush breakfast to the serene embrace of Mimosa Park for the day’s formal outing. The atmosphere shifted, carrying with it a sense of reverence and anticipation.  Beneath the canopy of swaying trees, Mr. Fabian Kaburu, the Chairman, opened the ...

From Shaking Hands to Confident Bylines: My Transformative Journey at Nation Media Group

Image
📰✨ Last month, May 2025, marked the culmination of a chapter from this great historic book of mine that I'm writing... I'm not used to such kind of long posts but I'm going to try today 'cause this journey deserves it! 🙈 When I first walked through the doors of Nation Media Group in February 2025, I carried with me years of preparation, passion for journalism, and a determination to make the most of this opportunity. As a graduate who has completed my Bachelor's in Journalism and Mass Communication with a focus on Electronic Media at Daystar University and is awaiting graduation in November 2025, I was finally stepping into one of East Africa's most prestigious media houses. The Reality Check: Workplace Dynamics Ain't for the Faint-Hearted The small small madharaus (the kawaida one mnakuanga mmewekea interns) - yes wewe, I see you! 👀 Those inward cries and wanting to burst into tears.  These hardships found in most workplaces have hardened me TWICE as muc...

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...

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...

All Eyes on the Senate: Gachagua's Impeachment Battle Reaches Critical Stage

Image
In a high-stakes session, 281 MPs voted in favor of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s removal , with only 44 opposing and one MP abstaining during the impeachment motion on October 8, 2024 . Following this dramatic decision by the National Assembly, Gachagua now faces a critical showdown in the Senate. The next phase will determine whether Gachagua is officially removed from office or if he survives the political storm that has engulfed him. The charges against him include gross violations of the Constitution, undermining the president, and economic crimes, placing his role as Deputy President in jeopardy.  The Senate will soon convene to either appoint a special 11-member committee to investigate the charges or hear the case in a full plenary session. During this period, Gachagua will have the opportunity to defend himself against the allegations, either in person or through legal representation.  If the Senate votes in favor of the impeachment, Gachagua will be official...
