Ni ukweli.
ATA ngurwe ndio maana hawamli. Pork is almost impossible to preserve in hot environments because of its fatty nature.
But it all gets interwoven with religion and culture before you know it, pork is declared Haram and taboo.

This knowledge should be communicated to every one. Africans have no idea.

Arabs live in the desert and coastal areas where the temperatures are very high compared to other places. Preserving dead bodies for weeks is a challenge. Those in mombasa know food spoils within hours. The tradition of Muslims burying their dead within hours is all because of challenges faced due to high temperatures. Kanzu ya white pia ilitoka hapo.

Very true.

Good man, it shows all you have to in life is be successful and help alot of people. Everyone will want to be associated with you. The massive pouring of good messages points to that and I hope they were all there for him as well when he needed it. When Michael Joseph left Safaricom I was worried his successor will have it hard to replicate his success. It turned out Bob Collymore was able to and exceeded all expectations. He is the best CEO Safaricom had. RIP.

He established the queen bee. One company which was to edge out all the other companies.

What is a ‘proper burial’?

One which is delayed for weeks on end ndio aunty wa seattle akuje. One where people rock tee-shats with a picture of your face, a picture you most likely disliked very much on it. One where vijana wa mtaa [gichagi] wanapewa chang’aa matumbo-ugali na sigara wachime shimo. One where everyone throws the dirt and leaves the graveside with their shoes dusty and shit.

That’s a proper burial.

Ata hii mambo ya kuzikwa is just too much. The world is for the living sio kujaza dunia na misalaba and graves. Get roasted and your ashez thrown into the ocean.

We should have public cemeteries in each county and stop burying people in their homes. Everywhere I walk nowadays just crossing a gravesite.

The other companies failure is more of their own fault, failure to innovate and very poor payout to agents/supplies than Safarocom fault. That how airtel money only exists to receive and send money. Safaricom keeps launching more products and services on Mpesa every year. Some are specific to SMEs, others like pay bill, fuliza etc. Some work, some fail which the competition only complains 24/7.

Umesahau, where local leaders come in large numbers, from the village elder, chief, to the MP or even president and they each give a speech and comment about political issues that you hated when alive.

I remember in one of the KEPSA meetings, Bob Collymore caused laughter when he narrated why he is not liked by politicians. This was just after the boycott Safaricom stunt. He said that was thanks to Michael Joseph advice that he should keep things formal with politicians. So each time they met in social, public and formal engagements the discussion was fine and pleasant. However when the discussion shifted to business or policy he would insist on a formal meeting. Mostly at that time he would give them his card with a direct line to him, only that the line went straight to his office executive secretary bypassing the exchange. That was necessary as she would book a formal appointment with parties either at his office or their office. During the meeting (should it materialize) then Bob would have her take minutes and record it. The key staff on Safaricom will also be present to expound on it and also because he ran the company on team effort. That formal process weeded out talk of political interference, dealings and off record agreements. It also denied anyone a chance to look for ways to interfere with company policy as there was no backdoor. Everything had to follow the guidelines. Secondly he restructured internal and external businesses at Safaricom. Every supplier had to formally register in their database annually by March to qualify to do business with them. In order to do that all companies or individuals had to give full disclosure of their ownership structure, key staff, operations and history details of service/goods delivery in the past with all supporting documents. That way proxy firms or staff can’t use backdoors to deal with the company. All those documents were vetted and verified into a scoreboard that help guide awards of business tenders from Safaricom. Lastly what set him apart from Michael Joseph was supervision. MJ took time to pick key staff, study their performances and deliverables then give them his trust. However some of his key staff would let him down after. So Collymore made it a constant habit to verify everything bottom to top. It didn’t go down well with some staff but overall he was always proven right. Over the years several staff members got caught going against company policy and guidelines. The system was improved, staff got demoted, moved, sacked or charged in court. He also had his failures just as much as success. The Safaricom internet decorder failed severally.
