They started by arresting our cows, it is now our leaders. Pole Mama Martha Karua.
The current Afro-African colonizers are worse.

Personal interest, not a representative of citizen interest?
In politics, you must look for friends all over the world; your interest is the number one driving force, not the interests of other players.

You have laid up treasure in the last days. Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.

You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you.

Warning to the Rich Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire.

It is always shocking to see failure in the international financial institutions' accountability systems and due diligence in protecting human rights among poor countries or marginalized groups. The lack or dysfunction of their GRS worsens the situation.
New @RFUK report shows huge gap between accountability committments in Congo Basin protected areas and the reality on the ground. The lack of effective Grievance and Redress Mechanisms means that human rights may be happening on a large scale. @RdcApem @Survival rainforestfoundationuk.org/n…

A self-determination-oriented approach to development and conservation is not only a moral requirement, it is consistent with international human rights law, and it is the only approach that has ever proven successful. @christensenfund @UN4Indigenous @landislife @hindououmar

All these are done in the false pretex of conservation. It's just fair enough to say that this government doesn't appreciate our existence. It's killing us slowly @tubuluTLS20 @Oleshangay @Advocate_Jebra

The rise of content inciting racial violence & hate on social media is alarming & unacceptable. Digital platforms must take action, as per UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights, without infringing on freedom of expression. #fightracism

Serikali ya @SuluhuSamia na @TumeUchaguziTZ wameamua, wananchi wa Ngorongoro kutoshiriki uchaguzi. Hii ina maana hawataandikishwa kwenye daftari la wapigakura. Haki ya kupiga kura kwa kila raia inalindwa na Ibara ya 5 ya Katiba. Mahakama Kuu kwenye kesi ya @TitoMagoti ilisema
