The @EACCKenya is a toothless puppy and has been for a long time. But on @orengo_james, the @EACCKenya is correct. As governor of Siaya, Orengo is a public servant. It is UNETHICAL and UNACCEPTABLE for him to defend those facing charges of EMBEZZLEMENT of public resources. The same goes for MPs like Otiende Amolo, Okong’o Omogeni, Tom Ojienda and others. They can’t act as advocates for those accused of having STOLEN public resources and still occupy public office.

A rare legume tree which flowers on old stems and sometimes on the branches! The #vulnerable #Angylocalyx braunii (#Fabaceae) is only found in coastal forests of #Kenya and #Tanzania. Some tiny black #ants seem to be the main #pollinators. @KewAfrica #FloraOfTropicalEastAfrica

A new species published! #Dorstenia arachniformis (#Moraceace) from #Ngutwa, #Makueni County! The name is based on the 'spider-like' appearance of the receptacle & appendages. By coincidence, spider web remains can be seen on the top-right photo! #FloraOfTropicalEastAfrica #Kenya

Different colours, one species! #Aloe lateritia var. graminicola (#Asphodelaceae). Notice the swollen ovaries in both. The species is common in dry sandy (bushed-)grasslands. Recorded in #western (yellow) & Eastern (red) #Kenya #Nyando #Makueni @ywoudstra likes this! 😎

Wait, who else thinks the 1st photo is reminiscent of the front view of an #elephant! #Aneilema aequinoctiale, #Commelinaceae, is a highland #forest species and differs from its close ally A. johnstonii chiefly by its purple style (vs yellow) & hairy filaments (vs hairless)#Kenya

It is immoral and insensitive for ntv to show graphic videos of guys being swept away by floods with their guys in suits showing zero remose. Sad
"I have news for you, there is no Superman (it’s up to us.)" - Tom Mboya. Mboya's monument is a crying shame @MikeSonko. Can @StanChartKE repair it? Its good PR and it's infront of their bank.
