Below is the type of passbook that was issued in this country during colonial occupation, an example of this is displayed at the Nairobi Museum.

Passbooks which were a device to monitor and control the movement of "natives," were also issued elsewhere on the continent in apartheid South Africa for example.

If you've been wondering who or what witches are. There's witches in the overt sense of practitioners of sorcery and the dark arts. And then there's everyday lower tier witches, the kind that practice manipulation, oppression, gossip and rumour-mongering, etc.

Mr Zulu has got just about everyone figured out, you ain't slipping any surprises past him that's for sure.👇

People who marry narcissists are more single than single people. The narcissist reduces their life to a level far below what they had when they were single.

If they see you having fun without them, they get triggered because they want to be the only source of your happiness. Even if you seem happy on a call, they will follow up to make you fall out with that person.

If you make plans without informing them, they get upset because they feel like they're losing control over you. If you watch them throw a tantrum without reacting, they feel terrified because it means you're beginning to figure them out.

If you answer them with simple but honest answers instead of over-explaining, they flare into a rage because they wanted to trigger you, yet you're triggering them instead.

If you do anything to improve yourself or just spend time on yourself, they take offence because you're their subject, and you ought to seek permission from them for everything.

If they spot you having a peaceful moment, they make a mess in the kitchen or in the bathroom, or they turn the whole bedroom upside down in the pretext of looking for a lost item. They just want to see you working and upset.

This person is adversarial and hostile in every way, but you stick there, hoping for the return of the good old days. Those good old days were also an act, but they have convinced you that love will return if only you correct yourself. In truth, the only thing you have to correct is removing this person from your life.

Politics 101.

The county secretary of environment for Nairobi is one of the few governmental officials who've established a visible presence as far as being seen to do their job.

But even he is probably no match for rubbish mindsets. Because unless he's planning on installing new brains into many of these people, chances are the household garbage that he's clearing from the roads of select residential estates will back and piled even higher a few weeks from now.

Moreover in a locale such as the one featured below whose residents perch precariously on their balconies ready to pelt passersby with used sanitary pads, washing water, soiled pampers, and whatnot, it goes without saying that the area's air quality must be something else as well.

For people who are used to the quid pro quo of doing as they please in return for giving free passes to a litany of zubaa zubaa or do nothing politicians, Mr Mosiria certainly runs the risk of being accused of doing too much.

Now that Nairobi's City Hall has reportedly acquired itself some alternative burial sites, it stands to reason that the opportunists and insatiable land grabbers who've been salivating for Lang'ata Cemetery all these years will add the new burial sites to their list of public lands to covet.

Another one from Mr Zulu. 👇

Sometimes people talk about you because if they talked about themselves, nobody would listen.

They have nothing going on in their lives to interest anyone. But you, you are making moves, and you have a vibrant life.

You make a perfect subject for idlers to distract themselves from the emptiness in their lives.

You can tell you're just a convenient scapegoat because their own lives will be falling apart, but they still have time to discuss you for days on end.

If they're connected to you by family ties or you even hail from the same area, they'll use that to pretend they know you from inside. They'll use that pretence to draw the world's attention, and out of necessity, they'll need to manufacture many stories about you.

In short, these people are gaining false importance by talking about you.

They're also silently tormented by the way you're moving forward when they're still stuck.

Prosperity comes with a built-in pain. The pain of being ostracised and excluded when you're innocent. The pain of being made the villain so that people can find asylum from the misery in their own lives.

Ask yourself this: if these people weren't talking about you, what else would they do with all that energy?Where else would they spend all that time they spend discussing you or posting about you on their social media?

If you weren't their imaginary audience and arch enemy, how would they endure the void in their lives? They might literally die.

So, settle down. Accept that your life is an ecosystem that supports both your accomplices and your adversaries.

Be like an elephant, stop being bothered when stray birds perch on your back to collect an insect or two.

"African women don't need Indian or Brazilian hair to be beautiful," read the caption, "they are naturally beautiful."

African women could also do without those exaggeratedly weird baby hairs that some black women paint on their foreheads.

Still, artificial hair doesn't necessarily take away from anyone's natural beauty. In fact, wigs and weaves can be useful for black or any other women who are dealing with hair loss for whatever reason.

Politics 101.

So, has Mr Trump come to the end of his usefulness as far as being a cudgel for hammering pods and sleeper cells of white supremacy into America's governmental machinery?

Or can the man with nine political lives, yet find his way clear to shift blame onto Obama, James Comey, et al, for his reported Epstein Island shenanigans and extracurricular penchant for gallivanting with underage boys, girls, etc?

And if indeed Trump has merely been a strawman for America's so called conservatives, what does a JD Vance presidency look like? Because either way, it seems that America's democrats should be doing a lot more than just congratulating themselves for their absence from Epstein's list.

Mr Zulu's "return to sender" philosophy is reportedly guaranteed to rid you of all kinds of vampires.

When you mirror the narcissist's energy, you disarm them. They've never had anyone quietly outwit them by handing them back what they send out. Try these tricks and watch the narcissist crumble in front of you.

First, return the grey rock back to them. The grey rock means emotional flatness. Are they cold and unconcerned, especially when you need their empathy and support? Switch from neediness to neutral as well. The moment you see them shrug their shoulders and disappear into their small world as you crave their support, pause, and change.

Stop needing them. Find support elsewhere or do what you can by yourself. They act like they can't stop by the store and bring groceries, or keep you waiting until late at night. Adapt and make other meals. Never send them again. Go to sleep and move forward with your schedule.

If they don't see you upset and their actions don't even land on you, they will become visibly disturbed.

If they misuse your car and bring it home unwashed and on an empty tank, say nothing. Just install cut-outs and never give it to them again. If they try driving it away and it can't start, don't help them. Let them follow you around begging. Respond with a dry and straightforward 'no.' That's precisely what they asked for, and it's what they get. If they hide the car or gate keys on the day of your essential interview to sabotage the opportunity, think fast and jump into a taxi instead. Do not return even if they claim to have found the keys while you're on your way. Do not update them about the outcome or even how your day goes.

Once they start disrespecting you, cut off all emotional closeness. If they stay out late without communication, go to bed and close the doors. Do not jeopardise the safety of kids or yourself because of them. Don't even be in a hurry to open when they return at midnight. Let them knock and wait for a couple of hours. They'll send you hundreds of messages throughout the day, the next day. Don't read them. If they go on a hunger strike or bring their own food, comment on nothing. If they convene a family meeting to complain or they bring in spiritual leaders, simply table printouts of their foul messages, audio recordings of their rantings, and screenshots of their abuse.

Say very little and let people make their own conclusions from the evidence. The narcissist didn't know you had this incriminating evidence, and they'll never dare you again.

They may accuse you of being a narcissist the moment you give them a taste of their indifference and selfish ways. Take it as confirmation that they know exactly what they're doing. They even know the term for their pathology.

You'll know how weak the narcissist is when you apply emotional detachment and they begin to crumble. You can survive without them, but they can't survive without you. They need an emotional response to feel powerful. You don't need any outward response. You can exist in solitude while they can't. You don't need to dominate anyone to feel strong.

They must control and harass people to derive a sense of importance. If they pack their clothes and leave, thinking they'll stroll back four days later like they always do, shut the door. Deny them access and slap them with divorce papers instead. If they move out of the bedroom, escalate the issue yourself and refuse any physical contact until it is properly addressed.

If the narcissist can't control you, they will avoid you. They never wanted an emotionally strong person. They wanted a victim they could toss back and forth. In short, narcissists have no mercy or empathy either for you or the kids. They give the kids zero attention, but when you threaten to leave, they fight for custody. They only want control, not cooperation or connection. They are very empty and vain humans. The sooner you can frustrate them so they leave you alone, the better.
