As we remember the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, it’s high time to thank God for keeping us safe and maintaining our good health during this time of pandemic.
Some have lost their loved ones to coronavirus. Others have been drained out of their resources due to high cost of treatment. May God remember all those infected and affected. May He comfort them and strengthen their faith in Him.
Let’s not forget that God knew us before we were formed in our mother’s womb. He promises never to leave us alone. He was with the children of Israel when they reached the red sea. Could they have imagined that the water would give the way? But God did it….and there was a way through!
They reached the wilderness where there was no sign of water to quench their thirst…God provided away out!
Those who were dead and people had lost hope…He made them live again! And the sick…..He restored their health!
He gave hope to the hopeless. No matter what we are going through, God will make a way… it may be dark in the night, but the morning is coming and the sun will shine once again!
Just hold on!
National Examination in kenya has always been taken as a serious exercise. Candidates started their KCSE. Some teenage girls have so far given birth in different counties during the exercise.
There is this one who got caught up in labour in the exam room. She was rushed to hospital. The girls are still doing their exams as long as one is capable.
For those who are have more complications, the government has assured them that they will still be given the examinations the moment they are fine.
From this, we can guess what the long holiday that was brought about by the pandemic caused. This births are outcome of the long holiday experienced.
The government in conjunction with the Ministry of Education has made sure that all this girls are seating for their examinations. The hospitals where these girls are admitted have isolated a room for the purpose of examinations.
During the long holiday, counties recorded high number of girls who got pregnant. See this. Let’s protect our teenage girls from early pregnancy. See how.
This comes after the government has announced high number of teenagers who have been infected with HIV during the school holidays.
Mobile network operator Safaricom has launched a 5G network in Kenya, making it the second country in Africa to roll out the technology. The company has started the rollout in four towns, and expects to expand it to nine over the next year.
Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa described last week launch as “a major milestone for the country.” The telco is implementing the project using technology from the Finnish company Nokia and the Chinese company Huawei
MTN and Vodacom launched 5G in South Africa last year. Telecommunications companies in five other African countries—Gabon, Lesotho, Nigeria, Uganda, Egypt and Morocco—are conducting internal trials for 5G, meaning it’s not yet available for public use.
While the new development makes Kenyans early adopters of 5G in Africa, questions remain over investor and market readiness for mass use of the technology across the continent. As a result, widespread adoption of 5G in the region, while a promising prospect, may be far-off.
5G is the fifth generation technology standard for broadband cellular networks. It can also support up to 1 million connected devices per square kilometer, compared to up to 100,000 for 4G.
Safaricom’s introduction of the technology in Kenya is “an important step in Africa’s 5G journey,” says Kenechi Okeleke, the lead author of a 2019 report on 5G in sub-Saharan Africa by GSMA, an organization representing mobile network operators worldwide . “This move will draw a lot of attention to the potential of 5G in the region and the benefits it can bring to society,” he tells Quartz.
The initial focus will be on how 5G will enhance broadband connectivity for Safaricom, says Okeleke, director at GSMA’s research arm, GSMA Intelligence. However, he adds, given the company’s track record in tech innovation, many observers will be on the lookout for potential new use cases that Safaricom could develop for Africa’s unique challenges and customer needs.
5G’s faster speeds bring fiber optic-like connectivity to homes—a broadband connection that can reach speeds of up to 940 megabits per second. This would be a game changer for African businesses and schools that do not have access to fiber-optic internet, especially in a post-Covid-19 world where activities including work, learning, and entertainment are increasingly happening online, Okeleke says.
The technology could enable new and existing technologies such as artificial intelligence and the internet of things—the interconnection via the internet of computing devices embedded in everyday objects—to have a transformative impact on business processes, helping drive productivity and efficiency, Okeleke says. This has the potential to spark innovative solutions, particularly in extractive sectors such as mining and oil and gas, he adds, and help financial services and logistics sectors in the continent.
Currently, only 3% of the world’s mobile phone connections are on 5G (Asia is in the lead, with 5% of mobile connections on 5G). But GSMA Intelligence estimates that by 2025, 5G will likely to cover a third of the world’s population.
It will take some time for Africa to catch up. Currently, around 51% of Africa’s mobile phone connections are on 3G, and GSMA Intelligence believes that it will remain dominant, with 5G connections making up only 3% of total mobile connections in Africa by 2025. South Africa’s 5G connections account for less than 1% currently.
Despite the expected growth and excitement over the potential of 5G in Africa, there are concerns about investor and market readiness for the technology. The investment outlay for 5G is very high for mobile phone networks, Okeleke says. Phones that can connect to 5G are also very expensive for consumers.
Uptake of 5G may also be slow, since 4G is enough to meet people’s data needs for day-to-day use. AI and VR, the strongest use cases for 5G because of the speed and lower latency it offer, aren’t yet common on the continent.
Still, Okeleke expects the need for 5G will grow quickly. “As these things become more commonplace in the region, then we are likely to see that stronger demand for 5G services in a way that saw that strong demand for 2G services in the early 2000s,” Okeleke says. “And it is that demand for 5G services that will improve the economics of investments into 5G networks.”

It is one week since the Kenya Certificate Secondary Examinations started. The Ministry of Education had announced that any irregularities in the exam will be punishable.
In spite of this announcement, some candidates and businessmen have colluded to find ways to leak the papers. Students have been found with phones in the exam rooms which may have been used to cheat.
Some of the teachers who invigilate the exam have too forgotten their sense of integrity. They were caught helping the candidates in cheating. They were arrested and investigation in on going.
The Cabinet Secretary for Education, has emphasized that the exam papers have not leaked and they won’t. He urged the citizens to be careful of some criminals who are taking advantage of the situation and sell fake papers.
The directives of the lockdown experienced in most of the countries in the world has interfered with the school calendar. To pasue Education, this has made a good number of students find refuge in online classes by using platforms such as zoom , Google classroom and Google meet this, for more visit Google Support
However this has not been always easy as there are a lot of challenges that learners go through during their online lessons. Some of these challenges are:
These challenges are making life difficult to both the child and the parents. See also 5 reasons why parent cannot stay with their children It seems that these challenges are not leaving us soon.

Of late we have been experiencing a very unpredictable weather. Like today is too hot. Sometimes days become too hot and all of a sudden changes to cold weather. Heavy fog is being experience along the highway causing accidents due to poor vision. Not even the weather man gets it right.
In February, heavy rains came from nowhere. It brought havoc in the country. As we were preparing to get used, the dry weather appeared.
It seems seasons have really changed. Sometimes back, we were able to tell exact dates when the rain would fall without the help of weather forecast department.
Now we are in late March. We are expecting long rains as people have already prepared their land for planting season.
We have to adapt this kind of change. Now we have to leave the house having all the necessities: umbrella for the rains, heavy sweater for the cold and light clothes too, incase the weather becomes unbearably hot. Not forgetting to put in mind the type of the shoes. Floods can appear any time.
Enjoy you day!
Oops! We are in it once again! Last year, the government banned all gatherings including the churches. After a long period we were happy to go back to our worship places.
The country has been experiencing increase in Covid-19 infections where the number of people infected is increasing day by day. This has made the President to revert the rules.
Curfew hours have been increased. All gathering have been stopped. Hotels and bars closed. This did not spare the churches. And so we are at home catching live events from the social media…thanks to internet!

Just yesterday, President Uhuru Kenyatta led the country in getting vaccinated against Covid-19. Previously, citizens had complained that the jab may not be safe because the leaders were not taking it.
Now that they acted as role model, people have come out in large number to receive the jab. Infact, some centers fell short of the vaccine. The fear is no more!…good leaders lead by example!
Hi, welcome to this platform. Did you miss the previous parts? Get them here.
“Come here my baby.” Her mother said to her holding her hand and together they sat in a couch. Then she continued, “Liznet, my baby, sometimes life isn’t the way you see it. There is a lot hidden from your eyes and you will only discover it when you get a bit older. I have heard you clearly and I understand your sentiments.” Liznet was listening keenly as her mother sweetly spoke to her.
“You enjoy seeing birds soaring in the sky. Have you ever asked yourself where they shelter from heavy rains and storms? With you, you get inside the house and cover yourself tightly. If you would be able to talk to those birds, they also have a story to tell. They would complain that people are hash to them, cry out because of challenges from bad weather, they also get sick and other many bad things do happen to them.” She looked at her daughter who was nodding her head in agreement with the mother.
Then she went on, “When God created human beings, according to what The Bible says, they were wonderfully and fearfully made. He took ample time to make sure He made the best human being. Then, he was given permission to control all the other animals.” She took a Bible Story Book and showed her some pictures.
” You see all this animals, human being is more special. He was given a different mind and authority over them.” She closed the book and continued. ” In life, there are challenges, but these challenges are meant to help us learn and to appreciate what God has done to us. They also make us stronger and help us appreciate other people’s lives. No matter all the bad things you see, God will always protect you. He want you to grow and become a great person in future. We should always thank God for giving us this wonderful life. Always remember mom will always take good care of you no matter what.” She hugged her daughter tightly and whispered,” I love you so much baby.” “Thanks mom, now I know am better than those birds! And am safe with you!” Liznet whispered back.
They then stood up holding hands and went for a walk in the garden……End!…Have you read how I made it? Don’t miss the next episode.

Ginger, garlic, tumeric and lemon are easily available in our markets. I didn’t know how these products were powerful until the time I used them.
We may have ignored their importance but they stand to offer great help to our bodies. I am one of those people who used to hate the garlic smell not to mention the tumeric taste.
Last week, I was suffering from cold and flu. At first, I was shocked as this is one of the covid 19 symptoms. You can imagine how scared I was. I decided to take it easy and tried to manage it by myself and then I would visit the doctor later if it didn’t work. I went fetching for the products in the nearby market.
I then prepared them and mixing everything except lemon which I added after the boiling was done. Before I could allow the mixture to cool down, I steamed myself with the hot vapour. After some minutes, I sieved the mixture and added some honey to taste.
After three days, I was free from the cold and flu! I couldn’t believe it. I felt so relieved and happy. My medicine was just a stone throw and at the same time I spent less for my treatment.
By writing this, I don’t advocate for not visiting the doctor when you feel unwell, but you can as well give it a shot.
Have you ever experienced such? Will be happy to hear how you managed it without visiting the doctor. Would you like to read other posts? Be free to get them here.
When coronavirus knocked, we thought it was just for sometime. This was never to be. In kenya we are now experiencing the third wave which seems to be more dangerous. Children are back home for a long holiday. This makes the parents even more worried.
Most of the hospitals are full to capacity for new admissions and when one gets lucky, they are quoting very high admission fee leaving most of the citizens helpless.
Number of people infected with the virus has really increased. People, on the other hand have ignored following the Covid-19 protocals. We are worried how things will end.
Will the vaccine help? We have to wait and see….is the virus still a thorn in the flesh where you come from?… Kindly share how you are working on mitigation……I will appreciate reading it in your comment.
Since the National Examinations kicked of on March 22 in kenya, fifteen girls have so far given birth in different counties. From this, we can guess what the long holiday that was brought about by the pandemic caused. The exams are still on until March 24.
The government in conjunction with the Ministry of Education has made sure that all this girls are seating for their examinations. The hospitals where these girls are admitted have isolated a room for the purpose of examinations.
During the long holiday, counties recorded high number of girls who got pregnant. See this. Let’s protect our teenage girls from early pregnancy. See how.
This comes after the government has announced high number of teenagers who have been infected with HIV during the school holidays.
You may say that the former Tanzania’s president was a rough person without mercy, but Tanzanians will tell you a different story. Whatever he did was for the normal Tanzanian citizen.He had stood firm on his decision making. He didn’t care whether to lose friends or not. All what he cared for was the Tanzanians. He will be missed by many.
You are well, this morning, then you have a reason to say thank you. As we look forward for a successful day, may the grace of God be sufficient. May all our needs be met. May our prayers be answered . May we have plenty in store so that we can have enough to share with our neighbours.
Wishing all of us A Blessed Sunday.
Have best of Sunday Vibes ….How was your weekend?…. kindly share.
Most of us long for weekends as these are the days we mingle with our friends. The social gatherings strengthens friendships. Some may like it when they meet at meeting places or restaurants.
Saturday is occupied with ceremonies such as weddings, dowry, funerals, picnics, family outings and many more. While the day looks so occupied with outdoor activities, others prefer to make it a cleaning day and there after enjoy a nap. Some like it when they stay at home and bond with their young ones.
We have others who take advantage of the weekend and use it to try new recipe.
Would you like to see what is happening on the Marketing Day?
I would love to know how you spend your weekend. Kindly let’s chat in comments section…for more of my posts, see my blog page
It is the nature of human to appreciate success when it knocks. Though somebody said...opportunity strikes only once…..it is everyone’s desire to enjoy it now and then, but mostly, it isn’t just a walk in the park. I loved a statement from one of the blogs I read recently that stated...if it was easy, everybody would be in it…this challenged me if not to inspire. Now I know that having tried is already an achievement. What you need is persistence as per this 10 Ways.. and also see this video on how to reach to your destiny
Is it true that money earned through hard ways is ‘sweeter’ than what you never struggled for?… I am not sure on this… Sometimes life is a bit unfair. One may work so hard yet success is negligible. However, that should not discourage one to move on. You never know what tomorrow has in store. So, keep moving as long as you don’t stop. Sometimes the speed doesn’t matter. If the snail managed to get into Noah’s Ark, play it cool, your destiny is definite, but you must keep it to the truck. As you can see here on Ways to success
What do I mean? Give yourself time to achieve what you want. If it is business or education, just go for it. There are some hurdles on the way, but they may be more of success than destruction. No matter how hard you try to jump over them, some need to be stepped on or knocked down to give you the way. Be patient…Rome was not built in a day…and a journey of hundred miles starts with a step. Keep going girl!..and that’s me!
Deputy President of Tanzania was sworn in as the first woman president of Tanzania. People are eager to see how things unfold with the new leadership. This has happened as the Tanzanians still mourn the death of their former president- John Magufuli
It’s a good thing to wake up to a beautiful day! Sometimes we tend to take it for granted. Little do we know that many didn’t manage. It is always good to appreciate the breathe we have. It doesn’t just come, a great supreme being is behind it. Being a great day, I wonna wish you a blessed day ahead.
Have a blessed Day!
Have you ever heard of the Pi Day? If not, you are not alone. I also got this from one of my friends in US. She explains it very well and I loved it! See what she says:
March 14 is Pi Day, an annual celebration of the mathematical constant pi (π), the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.The symbol was first used in mathematical calculations by Welsh mathematician William Jones and later it was popularized by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler, who adopted it in 1737.However, the numerical relationship […]
Happy Pi Day 🎉π🎉 — words and music and stories
