Stupid idiots and immature people have this in common; they both dream nothing. No ambition or an endgame to their toiling. So long as the stomach is full, the phone is fully charged and bundles are aplenty, that’s it. Best feeling in the world. For Raymond Muiruri though, it was a whole different saga altogether. He postponed getting married when he hit 30, saying he wanted to achieve his dream fast. He wanted to be a landlord, badly. According to Raymond, Landlords are the one group of people he admired the most, saying all they do is collect, renovate and then collect some more. But, the more he chased his dream, the more he realized it was running away from him.

He took a loan to finance his Cafe along Ngara, but that same week, a bigger hotel opened right across the street. The odds were continuously stacked against him. The harder he fought, the stronger the knock-out blow was.
“Life gives some pretty shitty reality checks. After sacrificing literally everything, including my own happiness, I still was struggling to do the one thing I had set out to do; win. I kept losing, kept weeping and sobbing. As the first born in my family, I wanted my younger siblings to look up to me and see a role model, not a failure. I thought I was smart, but life has taught me that luck matters more” Raymond couldn’t hide his shame, saying that he felt like giving up and go into hiding back home in Kirinyaga.

His Cafe was in its knees in no time as customers evaded it for the bigger one across. He reduced his prices, at the dire cost of making little to no profits, but the outcome was still the same; poverty was taking clear screenshots at his M-Pesa balance and giggling in silence. He closed it for a few days, to take a break from the emotional breakdown. He spent two days feeling sorry for himself and searching online motivational quotes to reduce the hurt. The third day is when he did something really important. Something that changed his fortunes. He stumbled upon an online page that described a traditional herbalist from Vihiga as “the one who unlocks potential and makes it possible for your destiny to manifest”.

He took his chances. Turns out, it was the one little-known secret to achieve his dreams, the one that would make him ultimately lucky enough to beat poverty. Dr. Mugwenu’s powerful Money and Success spells worked like magic. For the next three months straight, he watched in awe as customers kept flowing in his Cafe, all eager for Mukimo, Pilau, Chapatis and Chips.

There was intense drama in Maseno after a police post went full-on mad in broad daylight. According to a witness outside the Station, a woman named Esther came to report that her son had been shot during the just-concluded Azimio Protests. Her son, a student at Maseno University, was gunned down by a rogue officer who wanted to send a deadly message to the angry Protesters. Esther took the matter into her own hands when she was shoved out of the station in tears. She was told in clear terms, that she was not welcome there, that she should report her case to the Azimio leadership.
Out of anger and frustration, Esther went home and decided to find an alternative means to seek justice for her son, who was only one of thousands who took to the streets to express their discontent for a poorly run government. After a few phone calls to friends and family, she was recommended to contact a traditional herbalist called Dr. Mugwenu to exact revenge, vengeance and justice, whichever works for her.

As soon as Dr. Mugwenu was done casting his powerful spells, reports of Officers running naked and peeing on roadsides emerged. It was both a shocking moment as well hilarious one as the Officers took to the streets, this time not to quell or disperse rioting individuals with teargas, but because they had lost their minds. Residents escorted them to their homes, some singing reggae songs, dancing naked and chasing people with sticks.

Esther was eventually contacted by the OCPD, who was away on duty, to beg her to come to an agreement on a way forward. Eventually, the culprit who shot her son was found, among those most adversely affected by the spells, as he had a swarm of bees stuck to his body. He was duly arrested, as a huge compensation was made to Esther. A hefty fine of Kshs. 100,000 was also paid to Dr. Mugwenu to reverse his spells. Esther was so relieved, to both find justice as well as get a lump sum of Kshs. 2.5 million from the Police Force account. It is one of those cases that was labeled a victory, thanks to Dr. Mugwenu, whose involvement was the highlight moment as residents acknowledged his expertise and professionalism.

Dr. Mugwenu also heals chronic illnesses such as Diabetes, Asthma, High blood pressure, Cancer, Leukemia among others. His spells work within the same day, many saying that whenever there is a financial situation or relationship, the doctor can come in and help solve this so that you can get relieved of life’s terrible burdens and live a promising meaningful life. For further insights and consultation, call or WhatsApp Dr. Mugwenu on 0740637248 for more details on the services and Solutions available.

BIC, a world leader in stationery, lighters, and shavers, recently concluded the third edition of its rebranded penmanship program that saw 8,953 students benefiting from it. Previously known as ‘My Words, My Story, My BIC Pen’, the program, revamped to “Express Myself with My BIC Pen”, incorporates creativity and expression through writing and drawing.

Commenting on the success of the program, BIC’s Marketing Manager in East Africa, Salome Ngugi, said: “BIC is committed to enriching the educational journey of students.

Over 8,953 students have benefited in 2024 alone as we aim to create an environment that nurtures students’ abilities and helps them reach their full potential.”

Throughout the program, students expressed their creativity by writing and drawing with the BIC ballpoint pen, making the shift from pencils to pens smoother. Those who excelled were awarded a BIC pen license certificate and received BIC-branded educational materials.

Musoke Abbey, Senior Education Officer of Ministry of Education and Sports thanked BIC for enhancing good handwriting skills in schools because that is in line with the Ministry’s objective of promoting reading and writing.

Emphasizing the value of handwriting in education, Head Teacher at Nakasero Primary School, Mr Mujasi Gerald, stated: “The ‘Express Myself with My BIC Pen’ initiative has significantly benefited our students. It has instilled confidence in their writing abilities, aiding in their information retention and cognitive development.”

One participating student, Twimukye Joanna shared her excitement about earning her BIC pen license: “Completing the ‘Express Myself with My BIC Pen’ program has boosted my confidence in my handwriting. It has greatly improved how I present my schoolwork, and I am proud to show my progress to my teachers and peers.”

A parent of one of the participating students expressed his pride stating “Watching my child gain confidence through this program has been incredibly rewarding. His new gained skills in writing and drawing are a testament to the program’s positive impact.

Over three years, the initiative has distributed BIC pens to 79 schools, impacting 25,441 students. BIC’s ‘Express Myself with My BIC Pen’ initiative stems from the company’s commitment to improving learning conditions for 250M students by the year 2025 – as part of sustainable development program Writing the Future Together.

Fresh Dairy using one of its flagship brands has launched a campaign dubbed ‘Work it’ aimed at encouraging children and adults to stay active while rejuvenating and hydrating with Fresh Dairy’s flavoured milk.

Numerous research suggests that drinking milk during or after post work out activity replenishes muscle synthesis and strength because it contains energy in form of carbohydrates and proteins that help during post-exercise recovery.

Vincent Omoth, Marketing Manager Fresh Dairy said, “At Fresh Dairy, we believe in giving consumers dairy products that elevate and delight their everyday living. We have launched ‘Work it’ – a campaign that is encouraging Ugandans to remain active through sports and work out sessions, while rejuvenating and hydrating with Fresh Dairy’s flavoured milk.”

As part of the ‘Work it’ campaign, Fresh Dairy is calling upon consumers to take part in the numerous digital challenges to showcase how they are working out while staying refreshed with Fresh Dairy’s flavoured milk, and stand a chance of winning more goodies for a period of 8 weeks, Omoth added. “Working out could be a simple walk, jog, gym work, boxing, jumps, karate while sports range from football, tennis, swimming, hockey, gymnastics, netball, volley ball and wood ball among others.”

According to Ministry of Education and Sports, sports and exercise not only enhances citizen’s wellness, health, productivity but the actual image of Uganda.

Fresh Dairy’s flavoured milk is popular for its sleek and easy to hold trendy slim packs, being an on-the-go ready to drink snack, offering great refreshment anytime and most especially during and post sports work-out activities, added Omoth.

Omoth noted that Fresh Dairy’s flavoured milk comes in three (3) amazing flavours – Vanilla, Strawberry and chocolate; offers 2 carton options – 24 and 12 pack cartons and 2 pack sizes – 500ml and 250ml.

Omoth concluded by noting that for order delivery of Fresh Dairy’s flavoured milk, consumers can place orders Monday to Saturday, 8am to 5pm by simply calling Fresh Dairy’s customer care toll free on 0800 100 020/21 or WhatsApp 0715 744 664.

On Saturday, August 3, Kasuku and his co-hosts from the Talk and Talk Show unveiled a new studio for their show.

The studio, named The Olaxess Studio in honour of their late friend Isma Olaxess, was acquired for approximately $20,000, or around Shs73.8 million. This endeavor was made possible by the funding of Don Jan.

Situated along Bulabira Road in Najjera, the studio was designed and assembled by the legendary Steve Jean of Fenon Records, with connections facilitated by one Sharon.

Kasuku recounted that the idea of starting a studio was proposed to Don Jan back in November 2024. Jan agreed but was initially non-committal about when he would provide the funds for the necessary equipment and venue acquisition.

The turning point came when Don Jan learned that Kasuku and his team had been laid off from Dembe FM. Recognizing the need for a new base, Jan informed Kasuku that he was ready to finance the studio.

Since their departure from Dembe FM, the Talk and Talk Show, co-hosted by Kasuku, Eddie Ssendi, Jenkins Mukasa, and Batt Badru, has been held at various locations.

Their first stop was YayaXtra Residence, managed by their friend Stanley Ndawula. Following this, they moved to Buyu Studios, owned by John Segawa. The journey continued as Sheilah Gashumba, on behalf of Kasuku, persuaded Ali Khan, the owner of Nzou Media Studios, to allow them to record there.

Eddy Kenzo is making notable strides towards gaining national recognition and this was particularly evident during a recent thanksgiving ceremony in Nebbi, where he was formally introduced to President Museveni.

The introduction was facilitated by Hon. Phiona Nyamutoro, Eddy Kenzo’s wife, who’s the National Youth Representative MP and State Minister of Energy and Mineral Development (Minerals). Their union, which has been blessed with a child, has now spanned nearly five years.

During her heartfelt speech at the event, Nyamutoro expressed her deep admiration and gratitude for her husband.

She highlighted Eddy Kenzo’s support and encouragement throughout their relationship, emphasising his role in nurturing her ambitions and dreams.

Your Excellency Kaguta Museveni, allow me to appreciate my loving husband Eddy Kenzo. It is now coming to five years since he met a young tiny lady with big dreams. He called all of them valid and has continuously supported me, always pushing me to do better.

Renowned Jamaican dancehall artist Vybz Kartel, recently released from prison, has confirmed Kenya as one of his top destinations for performances.

“Kenya on the list,” he tweeted, marking the country as a priority for his post-release tour.

The announcement comes nearly a week after the artist, whose real name is Adidja Azim Palmer, was freed from the Tower Street Adult Correctional facility in Kingston, Jamaica, after serving over ten years on murder charges.

In 2014, a Jamaican judge sentenced Vybz Kartel and three co-defendants to life in prison for the 2011 murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams, whose body was never found.

The artist’s freedom was secured after the United Kingdom-based Privy Council overturned the convictions in 2024 due to juror misconduct, leaving the case’s final decision to the Jamaican Court of Appeals.

Vybz Kartel’s influence extends far beyond Jamaica, particularly in Kenya, where his music and persona have inspired numerous local groups to name themselves after his crew, “Gaza.”

Areas such as Mombasa, Kayole, Mathare, Kibera, Kangemi, Githurai, and Kawangware have adopted the “Gaza” nickname in homage to the artist.

Despite being incarcerated, Vybz Kartel has maintained a significant presence in the music industry and is widely known by his monikers, Worl’ Boss and Teacha.

He began his career in 1993 with his first recording, “Love Fat Woman,” under the name Adi Banton, a tribute to Buju Banton.

The artist has reportedly been battling Graves’ Disease for nearly eight years, enduring what his attorney described as “inhumane” conditions.

As Vybz Kartel prepares to perform in Kenya, fans eagerly anticipate his return to the stage and the impact of his presence on the country’s vibrant music scene.
