Johny Depp Hits 2.5M Followers On Tiktok Without A Single Post

After his recent legal victory in his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, American actor Johnny Depp has opened a TikTok account. The Pirates of the Caribbean star joined the popular video-sharing platform as @johnnydepp, garnering over 2.6 million followers as of Tuesday. “Occasional Thespian” is how the 58-year-old describes himself on his bio, but he is yet to share or like any video. He does not follow anyone on the platform, either. A Virginia court last week awarded Depp Ksh.1.7 billion ($15 million) after he sued Heard for defamation over a 2018 opinion piece she published in The Washington Post newspaper. Ms. Heard, who herself has starred in films such as Aquaman, called herself a 'public figure representing domestic abuse,' without mentioning Depp’...

Pwani Oil Shuts Down Cooking Oil Plant Over Shortage of raw materials

Leading cooking oil manufacturer Pwani Oils has temporarily shut down operations due to what it says is a shortage of raw materials as a result of challenges in accessing dollars to pay suppliers. According to the manufacturer of Fresh Fri, Salit and Fry Mate cooking oils, its bankers are processing merely half of the dollar requests it needs to pay suppliers of crude palm oil from Malaysia. “Getting sufficient amount of dollars required to support the factory in terms of getting sufficient raw materials is not happening,” Business Daily quoted Pwani Oil Commercial Director Rajul Malde as having said on Friday. “We are not even running the plant right now because of lack of raw materials [crude palm oil].” Pwani said the situation had further been worsened by a global stif...

Cardi B & Offset Hit the Streets of Mexico, Buy Bracelets from Local Kids

Cardi B and Offset took a stroll in Cabo Saturday ... and on the way to their yacht, some young salespeople showed off their finest merch, and Offset couldn't resist. We're told the rapper bought a few bracelets from the kids ... the little ones look pretty happy they made a sale, running off with some big smiles. Cardi and Offset left land behind for drinks on their yacht after the big purchase. Their Mexico vacation kicked off last week, and the mother of 2 got a beachside view of quite the show of a yatch sinking faster than the Titanic! Of course, Cardi chronicled everything on video and posted it ... she gives a hilarious play-by-play -- "What the f***?!? It's sinking!!! Y'all see this?!?"

Sossion says Electoral System Needs To Be Digitized During Polls

With only 70 days until the August General Elections, Nominated Member of Parliament Wilson Sossion has called for the electoral process to be digitized in order to prevent any electoral malpractices. During an interview on Citizen TV's Daybreak Show on Tuesday, Sossion stressed the importance of having a digitized system, which, he claims, will allow for immediate results transmission and ensure process credibility. "Going by history there has always been a deliberate interference of the electoral process in this country," noted Sossion.  "And one of the key recommendations is that we must completely digitalize our electoral system and that results must be transmitted digitally and in real time." The lawmaker warned that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commi...

IEBC Disqualifies 2 Presidential Aspirants

The first aspirant to face the clearing table at the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to get the green light for a presidential bid was independent candidate Patrick King'ori and his running mate Winfred Nyang'au. The duo appeared before IEBC Chair Wafula Chebukati on Sunday at the commission’s National tallying centre at Bomas of Kenya in Nairobi.   They were, however, found wanting on several fronts, with Ms. Nyang’au failing to submit her certificate of good conduct.  The biggest undoing for them came from their list of supporters; out of the requisite 48,000 submitted, only 65 were found to be satisfactory to the IEBC. “It’s not yet over, we feel lucky today in as much as we have a few shortcomings regarding incomplete paperwork.
