Thursday, March 20, 2025 – A rogue City Council Askari in Nairobi CBD learned a harsh lesson after heartlessly destroying a hawker’s sliced watermelons and pineapples. Furious bystanders pounced on him in a now-viral video, delivering slaps and kicks as they descended on him. The once-feared enforcer quickly became the victim, with the crowd making it clear they’d had enough of the Askaris’ notorious brutality. City askaris are infamous for their ruthless crackdowns on hawkers, often leaving them counting heavy losses. But on this day, the tables turned - swiftly and painfully. Watch the video below.

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - A no-nonsense University of Eldoret lecturer has ignited reactions on social media after a viral video captured him confronting a student over missing lecture notes. Visibly irritated, the lecturer demands to see the student’s notes, his voice sharp and commanding. “Show me your notes. You’re joking. People don’t come here to make noise and joke.” “Show me the notes from the past lecture and up to the last class. Do it fast!” he commands, his authority unmistakable. The student, looking like a deer caught in headlights, fumbles for a response. But the lecturer is having none of it. Growing even more frustrated, he orders the student to leave and return with his notes. “Hiyo kitabu ingine iko wapi? Utaendea. You come to this class? Utaendea.” (Where’s your other book? You’ll go and get it. Do you even attend this class? You’ll go and get it.) To escalate matters further, he demands the student’s registration number, likely for disciplinary action. The video has divided opinion online with some sympathizing with the student, recalling their own struggles with tough lecturers, while others applaud the lecturer for enforcing discipline in the classroom.Bottom of Form   Watch the video and reactions below.

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - Prominent Kenyan social media commentator and activist Dr. Mumbi Seraki has broken her silence after days of uncertainty surrounding her whereabouts, revealing that she survived a harrowing ordeal. In a series of posts, Dr. Mumbi disclosed that she had been drugged and left unable to recollect most of what transpired. According to her, what was meant to be a casual meeting turned into a near-fatal incident that left her battered, bruised, and in hospital for days. "They almost got me last Friday, family, but as Fate would have it, I am back home, safe and sound. Battered, bruised, burnt, but still very much here to bring in the new dawn," she posted. She added that whatever substance she was given has now worn off, allowing her to regain some clarity about the events. Some reports circulating on social media suggest that she had been lured into a meeting by a lawyer, after which she was allegedly drugged. The same narrative states that she was involved in a freak accident where the vehicle burned to ashes, destroying all her belongings. Dr. Mumbi has assured her followers that she will provide further details in due course, while gratitude continues to pour in from those who rallied behind her during the distressing period.The Kenyan DAILY POST

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - There are reports that employees at Bomas of Kenya have been informed that Tuesday, 19th March 2025, marked their final day of work, as plans to demolish key structures, including the iconic auditorium, intensify. According to insider sources, the demolition will involve the use of explosives, with the only building left untouched being the Administration Block. Security personnel have reportedly been deployed to the site to guard Chinese contractors who are overseeing the project. While the Government has maintained that Bomas is undergoing renovations, employees claim they have been denied access to the premises and sent home without their salaries or gratuity, contrary to the terms of their contracts. Restaurant operators within the facility have also been ordered to vacate, with their premises set for demolition. This latest development follows earlier reports that suggested employees were instructed to remain silent on the matter and warned against speaking to the media. Concerns have also been raised over the alleged non-remittance of bank loan deductions from employees' salaries, which has left many at risk of financial ruin. In February, reports emerged that Bomas management had held a closed-door meeting where employees were informed of plans to demolish the auditorium and were told they would be placed on unpaid leave for three months. At the time, some employees expressed fears that the Government’s real intention was to privatise the facility under the guise of renovations. Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua recently alleged that Bomas of Kenya had been handed over to a Turkish businessman, claiming it was part of a broader scheme to allocate State resources to foreign interests. However, Culture PS Ummi Bashir dismissed these claims, insisting that Bomas remains state-owned and that the ongoing works are purely for refurbishment. With employees now forced out and demolition preparations in full swing, questions continue to arise about the true nature of the changes taking place at the historic facility. "Hi Nyakundi. The BOMAS of Kenya employees have been informed that today, 19/03/2025, was their last day of performing/working at the institution. They are intending to bring down all the buildings and the auditorium using some kind of explosive. The only building they are leaving untouched is the administration block. Jeshi wako kwa ground already to provide security to the Chinese contractors. The employees have been told that the government is only renovating the place, but that's not the case. Meanwhile, the employees will not be allowed to access the BOMAS during this "renovation" period. They've been sent packing without their salaries nor gratuity, contrary to their signed terms of employment/contracts. The restaurant guys have been told to clear the restaurant as it's also going down. These employees have been the sole breadwinners of their families. Where will they go now? Who will come to their rescue? What are they supposed to do? Kindly highlight this and hide ID design. Government imetufichia the truth!"The Kenyan DAILY POST

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - Some of the units under the Government’s housing initiative in Pangani are already in a dilapidated state, raising serious concerns about construction standards. Photos circulating online expose leaking pipes, faulty plumbing, and poor drainage systems, making the apartments nearly unlivable. Shockingly, despite the urgent demand for housing in Nairobi, over 90% of these units remain unoccupied years after completion. This revelation comes at a time when President William Ruto is aggressively championing the Affordable Housing agenda, which is partly funded by the highly debated Affordable Housing Levy. The levy deducts 1.5% from employees' gross salaries, matched by an equal contribution from employers, to finance the initiative. With such glaring failures from past projects, many Kenyans are now questioning whether the new Affordable Housing plan will deliver on its promises - or if it will become yet another costly disappointment.Bottom of Form   See the photo and reaction below.

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - A photo of former Kiambu Governor Ferdinard Waititu at Industrial Area Remand Prison where he is serving a jail term after he was convicted of graft has surfaced on social media. The once-powerful politician looked lonely and disturbed as he continues to fight for his freedom while behind bars. On Tuesday, March 18th, Waititu filed a fresh application seeking to be released on bond. The fresh application came hot on the heels of an appeal against his jail sentence filed by the embattled former Governor, which is still pending. On Thursday, February 13th, Waititu was sentenced to 12 years in prison or pay a fine of Ksh 53.5 million after he was found guilty of the illegal awarding of a tender during his time as Kiambu County boss. Additionally, the court imposed a mandatory fine of Ksh 51 million in default to serve another seven years in prison.The Kenyan DAILY POST

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - Goons armed with old engine oil mixed with sewer waste attacked traders and journalists in Limuru town during a meeting held to discuss Kiambu County licenses. The meeting, organized by Limuru traders, had been calm until rowdy goons allegedly sent by unknown persons attacked traders and journalists, dousing them with oil and raw sewage, which left a nauseating odor in the air. The hired public address system, cameras and cars were also targeted as the thugs, believed to have been hired, wreaked havoc to disperse the traders. The traders are protesting against exorbitant taxes amid poor service delivery by the county. Several people were injured and media cameras damaged during the mayhem.

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - Nominated ODM Senator, Hamida Kibwana, made a startling revelation during an Iftar dinner hosted by Raila Odinga at a Nairobi hotel. In the presence of her party leader, she openly admitted that she and a section of fellow Muslims had prayed for Raila to lose the African Union Commission (AUC) chairmanship election. "I want to tell you one thing, and I won’t lie to you.” “As Muslims, we sat and prayed that you lose the AUC chairman post. I swear, myself, my husband, and others," Hamida declared. On February 15th, Raila lost the AUC chairmanship bid to Djibouti’s Mahamoud Ali Youssouf at the 38th AU Summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Hamida justified their prayers, arguing that Kenya’s political landscape would be chaotic and unmanageable without Raila’s influence. She likened him to a fire that warms a drum to produce a melodious sound, saying his absence would make the country’s politics dull and directionless. "It is unfortunate that you lost, but we are happy you are back home.” “We are praying for you and wish you a long life," she added. She also confessed that after supporting Raila in five unsuccessful presidential elections, she had nearly lost hope. However, she believes his continued presence in Kenyan politics keeps their faith alive. ODM Secretary General Edwin Sifuna, Mining CS Hassan Joho, Senate Speaker Amason Kingi, and former Jubilee Secretary General Raphael Tuju attended the high-profile Iftar event. The Kenyan DAILY POST

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru has dismissed criticism over her administration’s KSh 4 million allocation for tea and breakfast for county staff, insisting that the expenditure is justified. Speaking on Thursday, March 20th, Waiguru defended the budget, arguing that it was necessary to ensure efficient service delivery, particularly in revenue collection. "I push people very hard, but I am a fair boss. If my staff are working late to ensure the digital revenue system works, I will provide breakfast so that work continues," she stated. Waiguru explained that the allocation is meant for revenue collection officers, who are tasked with collecting KSh 700 million annually for the county. She emphasized that these workers start their day as early as 4 am and sometimes work late into the night, making the provision of meals a reasonable necessity. "The KSh 4 million is for the entire year. These officers earn only KSh 15,000 per month, yet we expect them to be in the markets at 4 am. And then you tell me not to give them breakfast?” “I have no apologies to make about that," she said. The Governor further justified the expenditure, stating that keeping staff motivated is crucial to meeting the county’s revenue targets. The Kenyan DAILY POST

Thursday, March 20, 2025 - In a bold move, U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stern ultimatum to illegal immigrants, including over 30,000 Kenyans living in the U.S without proper documentation to self-deport now or face a lifetime ban from the country. Trump’s administration has introduced the CBP Home app, a self-deportation tool that allows undocumented immigrants to register their intent to leave voluntarily. Users must provide their name, address, a photo, and confirm if they have the means to return to their home country. “People in our country unlawfully can self-deport the easy way, or they can get deported the hard way,” Trump declared. “If they choose to leave voluntarily, they may have a chance to return legally in the future.” “If not, they will be deported and banned permanently.” According to United Nations data, the U.S. hosts 157,000 Kenyan migrants, with 30,000 classified as illegal. Those who fail to register for voluntary departure risk being apprehended and forcibly removed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration has been a central focus of his presidency. Since taking office, he has aggressively pursued policies aimed at mass deportations. His administration argues that self-deportation is the safest and most cost-effective option, saving U.S taxpayers money and allowing law enforcement to prioritize criminals. The message to illegal immigrants is clear: download the app, register, and leave voluntarily - or risk being deported in chains. The Kenyan DAILY POST

Many women in Nigeria, and everywhere else, are constantly trying to balance a million things.  You’re trying to build your career, take care of your family, and sometimes, it feels like you’re just trying to survive the day.

Hey #BellaStylistas! This past Saturday, March 15th, we hosted the second panel discussion for our BNS Women’s Month 2025 series — and it was an unforgettable, thought-provoking experience. As part of our mission to spotlight important conversations affecting women’s lives, this session dove deep into the realities of mental health, tackling stigmas and shedding light on how women can access better support systems. We brought together a powerful lineup of women leading the charge in mental health advocacy, therapy, to discuss “From Stigma to Strength: Mental Health Unfiltered,” . Here’s a closer look at the phenomenal women who led the conversation: Waje (Aituaje Iruobe) — (Award-winning Nigerian artist, entrepreneur, and UN Global Champion)Waje’s unmistakable powerhouse vocals have made her a music icon, blending soul, R&B, and Afrobeat.

Motherhood is often painted as a blissful journey filled with joy and bonding. But for many women, the reality is far more complex — and far less talked about. Rashidat Olere, Operations and Sales Manager at BellaNaija, knows this firsthand. After welcoming her children, she found herself battling an unexpected and overwhelming darkness: postpartum depression. In this candid conversation, she opens up about navigating the emotional toll, the trauma that shaped her experience, and the support that helped her find her way back to herself.  What are the common symptoms of postpartum depression, and how do they differ from typical “baby blues”? Many mothers describe it as a vacuum—an emotional numbness that they can’t quite explain. In my case, I lost confidence in myself and felt suicidal after the birth of both of my kids. There was a strong urge to self-harm, and I struggled with overwhelming sadness for a long time. Unlike baby blues, which resolve on their own, postpartum depression lingers, making it difficult to function and enjoy life. Postpartum depression is more intense and lasts longer than baby blues. While baby blues bring temporary mood swings and mild sadness, postpartum depression creates a lingering sense of emptiness, […] The post More Than a Mother: Rashidat Olere on Healing from Postpartum Depression appeared first on BN Style.

Luxury fashion has always been a symbol of prestige, exclusivity, and meticulous craftsmanship. From the grand couture houses of Paris to the intricate, handwoven textiles of Africa, the concept of luxury is evolving. Today, luxury is no longer just about the price tag or brand name—it is about innovation, cultural depth, and the artistry behind every stitch.  In this new era, designers are redefining luxury by blending traditional craftsmanship with modern silhouettes, proving that heritage fabrics and artisanal techniques can stand alongside the finest materials in the world. One African designer leading this movement is Rafiat Taiwo of Rafiat Clothing, a brand that has mastered the art of elevating heritage fabrics into high fashion. With the world tilting towards sustainability and a focus on unique style, true luxury is  no longer confined to mass-produced high-end labels. Instead, it is about:  Exclusivity: Designs that are unique and handcrafted with precision.  Sustainability: Using fabrics with rich histories and ethical production processes.  Cultural Appreciation: Fashion that tells a story, honoring traditions while embracing innovation.  African fashion is playing a major role in this shift, with designers pushing the boundaries of textiles like Aso-Oke, Damask, and Chantilly lace, turning them into statement pieces that […] The post Redefining Luxury: How Rafiat Clothing is Elevating African Fashion to Global Prestige appeared first on BN Style.
