Nitakuwepo-A Promise to You




“Nitakuwepo” is the most inspiring phrase that I have heard since Obama's “yes I can”.

 A direct translation of Nitakuwepo  is: I will be there. But if put in context the correct translation would be: “you can count on me” or “I will live up to my role”.
The only less charming thing about this inspiring phrase is that it was a campaign by the kenyan government a couple of years  back. It is no secret the government hasn’t been the best of friends,but let’s give credit where it is due this phrase inspires me.

‘Yes you can count on me’ is a promise I desire to make. It is a song I want to sing. A phrase I want you to read at the back of my T- shirt.
Experience and books of wisdom have taught me to be careful with what i promise, my record hasn’t  helped this. I will understand if some are skeptical of a promise from me  to be there, personally for a moment I thought that I can’t make this promise, at least not in the public. But I will, because I know that I know that nitakuwepo.

Tangaza-A new mobile money transfer system

When safaricom launched a mobile money transfer in 2007, it required just 50 000 Kenya shillings,a premise and some basic training to be a dealer. Those who took advantage of this new service then are now millionaires. Today if you wanted a piece of this pie, you would have to settle with a sublet account, and not a full dealership. If you missed an M Pesa dealership with safaricom , a new opportunity in the name of Tangaza mobile money transfer has presented itself.

Jebel Kujur

“Clean and well stocked”, are the two words that you are likely to use if you were asked to describe Okoth’s shop in komarocks in Nairobi. That heavy capital and great care has gone into setting up the shop is obvious even to a passerby. If the shop had a name like okoth’s road side store, or bidii yako highway shop, maybe you wouldn’t care more than the cold soda that might have brought you to the shop. But the shop has a strange name; Jebel Kujur.


If you are anything like me, you wouldn’t go without having Okoth explain the name. Jebel Kujur is a market in Juba south Sudan. But why call a shop in the east lands of Nairobi jebel Kujur? Well, brace yourself for the answer I got: 

Earn Online as an Affiliate

An affiliate is someone who sales other peoples product and receives a commission from the sales. The products could be books, software or services like web hosting. The internet has made it very easy for someone to be an affiliate and a successful one. It is easier when you have a website or a blog but still you can do it even without these. Sites like clickbank.com and .cj.com (commission junction) have dozens and dozens of products that are being offered to affiliates to promote.

Blogging for Money

A blog is both a noun and a verb, as a noun it refers to a form of a website that is easy to create and allows for regular updating. A blog in this sense has also been described as a public journal.
As a verb, to blog is to maintain a blog, that is: to frequently put on your blog articles or graphics or video and to respond to comments to your posts. You can easily create a blog for free in few hours at WordPress.com or for a few dollars at blogger.com. Your blog could be about any topic of your interest.

So how do you earn from your blog?

Earning Starts by Giving


You may never have ever seen it in this perspective, but the simple  truth is that earning starts by giving. Any successful business person or firm today is successful because they have a service or product that they are giving out in exchange for value. Chance is that today you gave out money for something; a packet of milk for breakfast I guess.
Our ancestors may have understood this better because before money was invented, they had to have something to give in order to get what they wanted. Today we seem to have forgotten  that money is just but a medium of exchange, value is in what is changing hands; value is in what you are giving value is in what you are getting .
If making an earning or an extra earning is your desire today, then I have a blue print for you but before I unveil it let me explain my understanding of the word giving.
Most of us understand giving as providing or offering something without expecting a return. That is a true definition of giving and one that may scare away some from this article, but in this passage I want us to trivialize money and exalt what we are getting or offering for money. Let’s look at the example given above about buying a packet of milk; consider the value of the milk in comparison to the five ten shilling coins given! Is it not fare to argue that the person selling the milk by making the milk available close to the buyer at the appropriate time (say five in the morning) has in all the sense of the word given?
If you have understood this concept Bingo! You are just about to make money.
In my thinking,keeping in mind the above concept,i offer that the following steps outline how any one can make money,and live a happy fulfilling life.

Money-An Ointment of the Soul


“Money is the ointment of the soul; “so the saying goes. Enough of it can give you the attention of the world and your wildest dreams.

 In my society people laugh loudest at jokes told by people with money. Personally, one of the five objectives of all my efforts in life is to accumulate enough of it to buy the whole of New York.
