This was Kenneth Matiba's Brunner's Hotel, which was located where Ecobank Towers stand in Nairobi's Muindi Mbingu Street. The old generation of Nairobians tells me they have vivid memories of Brunner's. It was the place of highlife.
Once upon a time, some 50 Chief Administrative Secretaries were sworn in. End of story.
Lest we forget: What became of the Hustler Fund?
Interesting article by @johnKamau1 ( Sunday Nation): As much as we look forward to memoirs from our leaders, there are silent individuals such as drivers & aides who should be compelled to write their own biographies. I recommend you read the entire thing.
Did Pirates hide their treasure in Lamu, Kenya?, by @johnKamau1 open.substack.com/pub/johnkamau/…
Everyone has a story. And if you grew up listening to kijiji cha chewa, you know a better story. Without these, the holiday was not over. Happy Easter.
There was a time the Kenya Gazette would be published in Kikuyu. @mwendanjoka
Two weeks ago, I wrote a piece on the demolition of the historic Tom Mboya hall. Thank you @edwinsifuna for raising this matter and CS @WahomeHon for agreeing to cancel the irregular title. This is not only about land, but about a demolished monument. Shame on you Gami…

Time up for Nairobi governor. If you can’t fix it, leave it. Lakini hata nyinyi voters…. (Read full story Sunday Nation)
The two ridges lay side by side, one was Kameno, the other was Makuyu….
