Uhuru hints and endorses Raila in Kibera

President Uhuru Kenyatta on Wednesday gave the clearest signal he is backing ODM leader Raila Odinga as his preferred successor. The President made the revelation when addressing a gathering in Kibra where he was accompanied by Raila for a tour of development projects. The president opened two hospitals in the populous area that Raila represented as MP for decades. President Kenyatta for the first time left no doubt that he wanted someone who would continue with his development plans after he exits in 2022.

RHOA’ Star Kenya Moore Gets Ultimatum from Bravo Over Dancing with the stars gig.

Kenya moore decision to join "Dancing With the Stars" pissed off her bosses at the network where she got famous -- so much so, they tried to force her into a very tough decision.

However, the problems started when we broke the story Kenya was officially signed on for the 30th season of 'DWTS.' We're told that's when Bravo came to Kenya and told her to choose one show or the other. What's bizarre about that is ... lots of other Housewives have done 'DWTS' before without Bravo raising a stink. Erika Jay...

While, Kelly's looking at 10 years to life when he gets sentenced in May, Wyatt t...

Anderson Cooper Vows Not Leave His Son an Inheritance

CNN news anchor Anderson Cooper has disclosed that he will not be living his vast wealth to his son as his inheritance. The media personality appeared in a recent interview on the Morning Meeting podcast, where he said he does not believe in passing down wealth to children, according to Page Six.

Germany’s centre-left secures narrow win against outgoing Chancellor Markel.

Germany’s centre-left Social Democrats (SPD) secured a narrow win over outgoing Chancellor Angela Merkel’s conservatives in national elections with party leader Olaf Scholz claiming a “clear mandate” to form the government for the first time since 2005. Preliminary results on Monday morning showed the SPD on track for 26.0 percent of the vote, ahead of 24.1 percent for Merkel’s CDU-CSU conservatives, the worst by the CDU in 70 years. Figures on the election commission’s website showed the Green party came third with 14.8 percent. An official announcement from the Federal Returning Officer is expected shortly. With neither main group commanding a majority, and both reluctant to repeat their awkward “grand coalition” of the past four years, the most likely outcome of the vote i...
