Abigail looked at him lovingly, then turning to her mother said, "Mama, know I have failed you, but when you get to know what happened, I know you will be more forgiving..." "Failed me?" her mother asked, looking quizzically at her. "You completely let me down, Abigail. I did not expect you to have a baby before you completed school and was able to fend for yourself, and your baby! I can only hope that you have learnt your lesson. Though a baby is a blessing from God, it comes with responsibilities which will become even bigger and more complicated as Benji grows," she said.

"We all have the same rights to be here." But how about when the place you call home no longer needs you? In Mamaland, a train ride transforms into a reflection of modern-day Africa where strangers become neighbours, neighbours become foes, and all are seeking a place that they can call their own. With old wounds being opened and new divisions being created, there is one question that remains: What does it really take to call a land a motherland? In these pages, the final gesture of love from a daughter will be the final goodbye from a father. Ambition and betrayal combine in closed rooms where the exchange of power takes place. Families are challenged by sorrow, strangers battle prejudice, and normal people show extraordinary bravery when life requires more of them than they thought they can give.

The Boy in Crisis: Restoring the Missing Pillar of Society

A Think Tank Solutions Oriented White Paper and Transformation Toolkit

Across the world and more visibly across Africa the modern boy is standing at a dangerous crossroads. Once seen as the protector, provider, and pillar of leadership, today’s boy is increasingly lost in a society that no longer defines or develops healthy masculinity. From rising school dropouts and addiction, to absent fatherhood and moral confusion, the boy crisis has silently become one of the most urgent threats to societal stability.

Think Tank Solutions Oriented presents this powerful white paper, “The Boy in Crisis: Restoring the Missing Pillar of Society,” as both a thought leadership report and a practical intervention guide.

It exposes the root causes of the crisis - broken family systems, weak mentorship structures, reactive education, and distorted societal values and proposes a transformative framework rooted in mindset renewal, preventive action, and collective responsibility. At its core, this publication demonstrates that when the boy loses direction, the man loses purpose and when the man loses purpose, society loses balance.

The Forbidden Fruit

KShs1,000.00 KShs800.00
Devolution of governance and management of public services came as a blessing to many at the grassroots. It generated hope and raised expectations for the many that wallowed in poverty for years on end. With twists and turns, Tumbocracy etches out Democracy and, inevitably, things take the wrong-turn! Is doom the ultimate destination for the many a citizen at the grassroots? Forbidden Fruit is a fast-paced drama that raises important questions about the legitimacy of the many flagship initiatives of devolved units! What Others Say “The play captures happenings in devolved units in Kenya. Poor governance, mass corruption, and leaders’ amassing of wealth for themselves, is evident. The playwright creates the content anew and makes it sensitive to the society again as these issues have been taken as obvious and normal.” – Rose Keya Kong’ani, Editor
