According to realme, the smartphone maker has plans for more releases this year that will be tailored towards the needs of Kenyan millennials in line with the current technological trends to give them both value for money and comfortability.

In four months, in 2020, realme released the realme C3, realme C11, realme C15, realme C12, realme 6, and realme 7i, realme band realme Buds Q, and realme Buds Air Neo, that leaned more on design, quality, fashion, trendsetting and appealing to Kenya’s younger generation.

Baraka fm presenter and administrator Triciah Babes has added another feather to her hat, she is now a musician.

Triciah will  release her debut single  'Dream lover' on Valentine's day.

She says her style incorporates contemporary Afro pop.

She hopes to do a collabo with Diamond Platnumz in future.

" I used to sing in the shower and my dream was to one day, release a song", she said.

President Uhuru Kenyatta has said the Government is committed to continue creating a conducive environment for small-scale traders to prosper.

The President said his desire is to see micro, small and medium enterprises growing and creating employment for the many unemployed Kenyan youth.

The Head of State spoke Wednesday at the National Cargo Deconsolidation Centre (NCDC-Nairobi) where he made a follow-up inspection of the Government warehouse which was recently expanded from a capacity of five 40-foot containers to fifteen such containers, serving approximately 400 small scale traders a day.

The President noted the expansion of the warehouse was as a result of the discussions he had with the small scale importers saying, a country can only be developed when citizens learn to discuss issues and come up with solutions for the benefit of all.

“I am grateful today we are here seeing the progress made. I want to thank Kenya Railways and Kenya Revenue Authority for working hard to ensure this facility was completed,” the President said.

As part of Government's commitment to supporting small businesses in the country, the President said the cost of local inspection of imported goods was lowered from 5 to 0.6 percent of customs value.

“During my visit on 10th November 2020, you requested me to have the cost of local inspection reduced from 5 percent of customs value to 0.6 percent. This was to reduce the cost of importation and promote growth of your businesses,” President Kenyatta said.

“As you can see my Administration is ready to facilitate growth of your businesses. Through this new facility, we have the required capacity to continue supporting the growth of your businesses, which I know will also create opportunities for other Kenyans to earn their livelihoods,” he added.

The President said NCDC-Nairobi will make it easier for the importers to grow their businesses given its strategic location at the heart of the capital city.

“This facility will simplify and facilitate your businesses considering it is at the heart of the city. All traders from Nyamakima, Gikomba and other environs will now be able to access their goods without problems,” he said.

At the same time, the President challenged the traders to be faithful in paying their taxes so as to enable the Government to continue providing key services.

He thanked cargo consolidators for supporting the Government to achieve its purpose of helping small scale traders and urged them to continue partnering with the state in ensuring businesses thrive.

“To the consolidators who are here, we thank you. If it is not your hard work there was no way goods would be brought here. We thank you for supporting small traders in this country,” the President said.

The Head of State cautioned those intending to circumvent laid down procedures saying all consolidators are required to process their cargo  containers at the new facility.

“I want to caution those with ulterior motives that we won’t allow you to do unscrupulous business. If indeed all you are doing is to consolidate cargo and you are making profit, if you are not bringing in illicit arms or illicit goods and drugs why would you not want to bring your container here?” the President wondered.

President Kenyatta cautioned politicians against dividing Kenyans saying what the country needs going forward are leaders who engage each other and with Kenyans constructively instead of creating unnecessary tensions.

Addressing a crowd that stopped his convoy in the city centre, the President said his desire is to see Kenyans working together in peace and harmony to uplift themselves and develop their beloved country and, not have unnecessary political competition.

He assured city residents that the Nairobi Metropolitan Service (NMS) will continue to improve infrastructure and provide basic services to all.

 “We will continue to improve our city. Once the NMS under Major General Mohammed Badi is through refurbishing the roads in the CBD, they will then get into the estates and all areas to improve infrastructure and provide water and sewage services,” the President said.

 The Head of State who was accompanied by several leaders, among them Starehe MP Charles Njagua Kanyi, told off politicians who continue to insult others, saying the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) is aimed at ensuring all Kenyans coexist peacefully.

During the Taita meeting, the Governors also received a Cashewnut industry revival proposal from Empowering Farmers Foundation (EFF) Chairman, Mahesh Patel.

The collaboration seeks to empower small holder farmers by reviving the dormant cashew value chain in the Kenyan Coast region.

Dubbed the KOROSHO NI MAISHA PROJECT, the project aspires to reduce poverty and improve the livelihoods of 350,000 farmer households in Kilifi, Kwale, Tana River, Lamu, Taita Taveta, Mombasa and aims to transform the rural Kenyan coastal economy by increasing production to over 300,000 Metric Tonnes worth Kshs. 40 Billion annually by 2030.

Kilifi Governor Amason Kingi has insisted that the hustler narrative by Deputy President William Ruto is a political conmanship.  

Speaking in Mariakani town the Governor told the residents of Kilifi to be weary of the DP he said was busy trying to divide the Coast region for his own political gain. 

“We must be very careful against the current political dictatorship and conmanship through ambiguous narratives meant to confuse the common people towards 2022 General elections,” said the Governor. 

The Governor insisted that his call for Coast unity was very much alive and that within no time, the plans will be rolled out to the Coast people for deliberations. 

 “Coast region's political future is safe only when people and the political class unite for a common cause to serve the interest of the region,” the Governor said.  

He said that his ambition is to lead the Coast region to the National distribution table through a united Coast political formation. 

“Please reject the so-called 'Hustler' Nation that is going round the region endorsing political candidates. What we are seeing with the hustler narrative is total political conmanship to endorse individuals with suspicious character to political leadership,” he said. 

Mr Kingi while addressing the community reminded them how DP Ruto opposed the 2010 constitution that brought in the devolved system of government. 

“As Coast people we stood with the 2010 constitution because it was of great importance to us. But the person who led that brigade in opposing the constitution then was DP Ruto” said Kingi.

Adding “He led the ‘No’ campaign and had Kenya listened to him, many of the county development programs would still be a dream”. 

The County boss wondered that it is the same person now opposing the constitutional amendment that will bring in more resources to the counties to enhance devolution. 

“We want to increase resources to the counties but again the same person is on it again, opposing the billions that are meant to come to the counties. He is willingly giving out wheelbarrows and telling the people to oppose the billions that will come with the new constitutional amendments,” said the Governor. 

Last weekend Ruto toured some parts of the Coast region to popularise his 2022 presidential bid. The DP toured Mombasa, parts of Kilifi and Kwale where he held several rallies.
