  1. Top of the morning to you and yours this gloomy Thursday morning. Let us get into some hot stories to keep the brain warm:
  2. The last two months NTV’s Dennis Okari and his estranged wife Betty Kyallo have been the talk of the town, and it seems the trend is continuing, despite both of them having remained silent. It all started as a rumour but right now, it has become real. The two are no longer together; they don’t share a bed anymore.
  3. Mtoto si nguo, Utaomba mtu; this must be the song celebrated Citizen TV’s TerryAnne Chebet sings every morning she wakes up to see her daughter.
  4.  While everyone was focusing on the events unfolding at Afraha Stadium, Nakuru as UhuRuto led the Ocampo 6 in a thanksgiving ceremony, most people forgot to focus on one particular member of the First Family – Jomo, the first born son of the President.
  5. Just like Nigerian writer, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie would put it, the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story. Kikuyus are not only good when it comes to business; they are just as good in many other things.
  6. Controversial pastor Apostle James Ng’ang’a’s followers must be somewhere crying and praying that God helps them defeat the “devil”, which in this case is City Hall officers. Yesterday the Neno Evangelism Centre Church on Haile Selassie Avenue was shut down over Sh507,404 debt during the city council operation crackdown on businesses in the CBD over unpaid land rates.
  7. President Uhuru Kenyatta has been deemed the “most humble” President Kenya has ever had. He has been compared many times with US President Barrack Obama, whom Kenyans like to say, is one of them, just because his dad hailed from Kenya. Don’t ask for my opinion on that issue, though.
