Sudan: A Land of Many Stories
A story of great loss, displacement and dispossession. To be wrenched from your roots at a young age is a confusing experience for anyone, when it happens during war, it takes time to rediscover yourself...

Music Is A Weapon, Theatre Empowers
Fela said music is a weapon and Angelique Kidjo said it is a window to the soul. Two very powerful statements about the power of music that I agree with.

We Could All Learn Something From Ghana…
Right now, Ghana is trailblazing with good governance, stability and economic growth. I think a few of the continents leader's need to get over the pride and ask how they did it.

Super Ladies??
An old edition of Witness, documenting the lives, struggles and successes of Ugandan female rally drivers. Personally, this is not for me but if it works for them and they are enjoying it and in so doing, are breaking the norm, why not?

Who Cares About Maternal Mortality?
Motherhood is supposed to a joyful experience but for many women that reality often comes with its own pain. The kind you cannot explain and one that can never be erased.

The Power of The Pen
For as long as I can remember, authoritarian and repressive governments have always been afraid of writers and their pens. The might of the pen goes beyond the creation of creative and rhythmical prose on the page. It also provokes the masses and maybe, individuals, who for had issues with what they see happening around them but did not have the voice to express themselves and take action.

African Woman by Becca
I love the song and the words are apt when we talk about celebrating the African Woman. As an artist, Becca just made her way into my heart. I admire the natural setting of the video and the beauty that radiates from it. Enjoy!

The Pain and Shame of A Taboo Most Personal
How can we address the issue of mental health if there are people who are yet to get the most basic of healthcare? How many mental health specialists do we have? How many mental health counselors, consultants, hospitals and experts can we boast of? When we start asking and answering these questions, then we can talk about solutions and address this malaise which is not specific to Kenya but the continent as a whole.

HIV/Aids Is Not A Curse!
They say you never know what it is like to live in the shoes of an individual with no legs until you lose yours. It is always so much easier to judge, criticise and give advice but when its your turn, you have no idea what to do with yourself. I agree with Sawo Awoke that HIV is not a curse. It is a medical condition which needs medical attention.
