🤣 🤣 I’m convinced there’s a history and geography teacher somewhere right now, confidently marking exams, yet completely unable to explain what on earth is going on between Iran, the United States, Israel, Russia, and the rest of the global chessboard. Imagine teaching about World War I, Cold War politics, oil routes, proxy wars and global alliances but when today’s headlines hit, you just clear your throat and say, “It’s complicated.”
Somewhere, a whole degree is sweating.
We were taught about maps with neat borders, arrows showing trade winds, and simple diagrams of alliances. Nobody told us that in real life, alliances switch faster than football transfers, enemies trade secretly, and “strategic interests” is just a polite way of saying, “It’s not about you, it’s about power.”
Geography said, “Here are resources.”
History said, “Here are past wars.”
Politics said, “Here are interests.”
Reality said, “Now mix all of them and add ego.”
Honestly, global politics sometimes feels like a group project where everyone read a different chapter and still wants to lead. And somewhere in a staffroom, a history teacher is staring at the news like: “This was not in the syllabus.”
Geopolitics: the only subject where yesterday’s enemy is today’s ally, and today’s ally is “we are reviewing the situation.”
The world map hasn’t changed much but the intentions behind it definitely have.

Lately, there has been a lot of talk on the streets about school leadership. Word is that to become a principal or deputy principal in Kenya, one must now hold a master’s degree. But is this the full truth? And more importantly, is it fair?

Traditionally, many of the principals and deputies we see today rose through the ranks with only a bachelor’s degree or even a diploma in earlier years backed by years of experience and service. The “checklist” for leadership leaned heavily on performance, dedication, seniority, and the ability to manage both staff and learners effectively. Academic papers mattered, yes, but they were not the ultimate ticket.

Now, with the push for advanced qualifications, the landscape seems to be shifting. If indeed a master’s degree is becoming the new standard, what does this mean for thousands of hardworking teachers with only degrees or diplomas? Will they suddenly be locked out of opportunities they have earned through sweat and sacrifice? Or will experience and character still carry weight alongside certificates?

The bigger question is: if we all rush for master’s degrees, will there be enough promotions for everyone or will we end up with another “paper race,” where titles outweigh talent? Education is about impact, not just academic trophies. Leadership should balance qualification, experience, and proven ability to inspire change.

Perhaps the real conversation we need is not whether a master’s is the true qualification, but whether we are building a system that rewards merit and vision, rather than simply piling up credentials. After all, Kenya’s greatest school leaders have always been those who combine wisdom, skill, and heart not just an extra certificate. what's your thoughts on this ?

Long ago in the green, rolling hills of Meru, beyond the misty peaks of Ntugi and the whispering bamboo forests of Kiirua, there lived an old goat named Muthoni. She was no ordinary goat her horns curled like sacred pipes, and her eyes held a wisdom older than the rivers that carved through the land. She grazed silently in the shadow of kings, often ignored by men and feared only by weak fences.

In those days, power rested with the Lion, Mwenda the undisputed ruler of Kirindine forest. His roar shook the skies, and even the monkeys at Gaitu Market would scatter in fear when his shadow passed. The lion had grown arrogant. He strutted through farms, tore into herds, and slept beneath sacred mugumo trees like a spoiled prince. Even elders at the Njuri Ncheke shrine whispered in silence, afraid to curse him.

One dry season, as the rivers thinned and hunger crept across the land, Mwenda the Lion came down from the hill to feast on the goats of the village. It was said he could choose any he wanted. And one afternoon, he set his eyes on old Muthoni.

Villagers watched from behind banana leaves as the lion charged.

But Muthoni did not run.

She stood, hooves firm in the cracked soil of Antubetwe. As Mwenda leapt, she twisted her horns with the grace of an elder who had seen many rains. She struck his chest midair. The lion fell hard, confused and gasping. And before he could rise again, Muthoni slammed him once more this time on the head, drawing blood.

The lion, weakened and dazed, stumbled away into the forest. He was never seen again.

From that day, the villagers sang a new song: “Kîrumî kirîrû gîkûraga njaa even a black horn can feed the hunger.” And they built a stone marker in Muthoni’s honor near the Njogune stream.

But the story was more than legend. It was a warning.

Power, like the weather of Meru, shifts without notice. One day the lion roars, the next he limps away in shame. Today’s ruler of the forest may be tomorrow’s story around the fire. The strong must lead with humility, for the future remembers. The goat you ignore today may rise when the rains change and the wind turns.

In the land of the Baite, even the small have their season.

And when that season comes, let no lion claim surprise.

🤣🤣🤣 Oh, teaching is such a wild ride! So today was my first day at this new school, and let me tell you, it was an absolute blast! After I introduced myself to my new class, I thought things couldn't get any better, but then came mathematics. And guess what? My learners hit me with an early Valentine’s surprise flowers! Yes, flowers! I was not expecting that. But wait, it gets better. There was a little note attached too. I mean, who knew that solving equations would lead to receiving bouquets and heartfelt notes? Honestly, it's just amazing to start off with such positive energy. Feels like I'm already getting the hang of this teacher life, and I’m all about those good vibes! 🌸😂

Madam Lucy Kinanu, the esteemed Principal of Mara Girls Secondary School, reported for duty clad in the full school uniform, a striking sight that accentuated her well-defined waistline and captivating physique. The ensemble, which seemed to defy the conventional expectations of an administrator’s attire, inadvertently stirred the primal instincts of her male colleagues, whose admiring glances betrayed a struggle to maintain professional composure. Beyond the aesthetic spectacle, however, we take a moment to honor and celebrate her unwavering dedication, resilience, and the exemplary leadership she continues to exhibit in the realm of education.
