KISIIrani: Arati vs Osoro
Kaunti ya Kisii inashuhudia dhoruba kali, kivumbi, na mvutano kati ya gavana Simba Arati na kiranja wa wengi kwenye bunge la kitaifa Silvanus Osoro. Wanasiasa hao ambao zamani walikuwa na ukuruba sasa ni mahasimu. Lakini chanzo cha uhasama wao ni upi?
Uadui huu umeibua masuali na minong’ono huku ubabe wa kisiasa kati ya Kenya Kwanza na Azimio la Umoja ukionekana kama chanzo cha uhasama. Hata hivyo wanakandarasi ambao wanasema walishamaliza kandarasi tofauti wana hasira wakidai malipo yao, Osoro akionekana kuwa mtetezi wao naye gavana Simba Arati akisistiza kwamba sharti sheria ifuatwe ya malipo.
Mwanahabari wetu wa masuala ya siasa Melita Ole Tenges alifika kaunti hiyo na kuzungumza na viongozi hawa akiangazia kisiirani Kisii.

Sweet but deadly Tharaka Nithi honey || 12 minutes
At least 13 people have died after consuming wild honey locally known as Nchuura in Tharaka Nithi county in the last two years. Since 2019, Tharaka North constituency hits headlines as people die and scores hospitalized following the same. Nchuura is not made by common bees but by a species of smaller ones locally known as tuchuura, which do not sting and mainly live in hollow tress or abandoned burrows in the ground. Locals believe that the honey which is eaten raw, is medicinal and it is highly sought after, especially by pastoralists. The locals say Nchuura is sweeter than the normal honey and they cannot resist its sweetness despite it being deadly.

PLO Lumumba, the Pan-Africanism Champion
When he is not litigating in courts, then he is probably giving a public lecture or seated on a panel somewhere across the continent of Africa preaching about the elusive dream of a united Africa. Kenya’s high court advocate professor PLO Lumumba is increasingly gaining traction in the continent for his passion on pan-africanism that has seen him stand out as the latter-day Kwame Nkrumah who was the champion for pan-africanism. So what drives him to be this passionate about mama Africa? What kind of Africa is his dream about and who inspires him the most?

Killed in pineapple farms || Inside Out
On a 22,000-acre piece of land that cuts across the Murang’a and Kiambu county borders, a small fruit that lands on the plates of many Kenyans and international supermarket outlets is causing big trouble. The pineapple. The fruit has seen unimaginable acts carried out on those who attempt to pluck it unauthorised, steal it and even those going about their business using the roads that cut through the vast farm. Many have been maimed, rape and tens murdered.
The company at the Centre of all of this is Del Monte Kenya, whose guards are on record for using excessive force whenever a trespasser is found within the confines of the pineapple farm.
The family of a 28-year-old man says time has stood still since his murder occurred within Del Monte farm.

The Holy Betrayal
The seventh-Day Adventist church has been fighting for it's space and legitimacy over the years as critics and self-proclaimed cult watchers like Dr Walter Martin attempted to liken it to one in a 1955 book, the Rise of the Cults. Until Walter and the likes changed their views in 1965, the church has grown and tremendously transformed the belief of their members. By 2019, there were 21,000,000 baptized members around the world. In this story, we focus on the emergence of SDA offshoots, splinter groups that are threatening the legitimacy of the church and creating a fight between extremists and Adventists.
