Saphire goes rogue, and there goes my early retirement…

I travelled to the only place where I could find peace. I went to Nairobi, Kangemi specifically, to visit Xtash, my former student from years ago, former girlfriend, and now woman friend.

At the beginning of third term, you will remember, Saphire, one of the longest serving (if you include the years he was on interdiction) teachers at Mwisho wa Lami Comprehensive School, had returned a fully reformed man.

After years of disappointing us with his behaviour, the man had announced that he was a changed person. He spoke with the seriousness of a man who had just seen the light, heard the voice of God and received a personal apology from his past.

As for me, even if the crops fail and there are no cattle in the stalls, I will rejoice in the Lord.

We have now been asked to wait for 33 days before we can access our money.

Saphire told me that for the school to change, I too needed to change.

Saphire was no longer merely reforming himself, he had started reforming everybody else.

Saphire has been updating me on affairs every day, and so far, it has been a great Week 1.

The pattern has become eerily familiar: A building collapses, authorities announce that it was constructed illegally.

Kenya Vision 2030’s outline of Lapsset included a proposed oil refinery in Lamu.

CCTV footage helped identify the MCA in three reported theft incidents.
