Frank Talk To My Son by Mwancha Okioma
Mwancha Okioma holds B.Sc. (Hons), M.Sc. degrees from the University of Nairobi and has finalized a Ph.D. degree programme at Egerton University, Njoro. Mwancha Okioma was appointed as director of the Kenya Institute for Public Policy Research and Analysis (KIPPRA) and is the immediate former chairman of the Commodities Fund, a state parastatal which offers easily accessible credit to the coffee, sugarcane, coconut palms and bananas sub-sectors in the country.
He is now serving as a member of the Coffee Revitalization Steering Committee under the ministry of Cooperatives and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development. The author has experienced firsthand the joy and sorrow that follow after payment of earnings from all these cash crops and the fights that are put up by the children especially the sons demanding their share. Some of the sons disappear from home for a period of time, only to reappear after spending all their money.
The average age of a coffee farmer in Kenya today is sixty years. That tells you that the youth have little or no interest in farming.
Unfortunately, some of those youths have little or no interest in anything else. Therefore, the author understands the essence of bringing up a son who is disciplined and focused as well as a man of integrity prepared to navigate through the corridors of this fast changing as well as challenging world.
Frank Talk to My Son is a compilation of the author's experience with fathers who shared with him the challenges they have faced as they chaperone their sons to be grown-ups who would be able to care for their immediate and wider families as their aging parents enter their sunset years. Mwancha Okioma is the author of: What They Don't Teach You Before Marriage, one of the bestselling books in The Happy Family Life Series.
Commercial Avocado Farming by Mwancha Okioma
Due to their high production and availability, avocados have become one of the most consumed tropical fruits in the world, especially in American and European countries, which is attributed to a high health-conscious population and high disposable income of the people: Avocado is a healthy nutrient dense fruit that has been included as a supper food. These health benefits are boosting the demand for avocados globally, by acting as major driving forces behind their increasing worldwide demand.
Also, the expanding food retail businesses and the growing product launches of avocado-based foods have increased their demand in continental and other restaurant chaim all over the world. The demand from these countries is expected to continue further due to increasing population.
Seventy percent of the avocados in Kenya are grown by smallholder farmers who have 5-20 trees per homestead. The author maintains that Kenya has the best soil and other ecological conditions to be one of the leading players in global avocado trade where Kenyan peasant as well as medium and large-scale (avocado) farmers could benefit in their fight against poverty. The Avocado Market size is estimated at USD 22.69 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 35.55 billion by 2029.

A young, untested dictator is determined to prove his strength by breaking the deadlock. Like his father before him, he hangs his plans on the country’s nuclear ambitions. Until now, that program was impeded by a lack of resources. However, there has been a dramatic change in the nation’s economic fortune. A rich deposit of valuable minerals have been found in the Hermit Kingdom. Coupled with their nuclear capabilities, the money from this find will make North Korea a dangerous force on the world stage.

Virgin Way

He may be famous for thinking outside the box—an expression he despises—but Branson asserts that "you’ll never have to think outside the box if you refuse to let anyone build one around you.”
This is a unique book on leadership from someone who readily admits he has never read a book on leadership in his life. So expect the unexpected.""
