Citizens don’t need their country’s visa for travel, but when planning to travel abroad may need a visa issued by the embassy of the country they wish to visit. In this situation, when planning travel abroad, learn about visa requirements by country

CBC juniour secondary preparation.

The building of classes required for the transition from grade six to junior secondary is already in advanced stages and is not stoping at anything.

During a stakeholders meeting by participants involved in the CBC education rollout held in Nairobi on wednesday, Profesor Magoha promised that the plan to rollout the transition will be fasttracked without any challenges.

Interior security ministry through the CS Matiang’i gave a warning to everybody involved, and even dared the chiefs who will not see to it that their locations adhere to set guidelines or even fail to build classes as is required that they will be sacked.

Gilgil residents on infrastructure. We are fed up.

Gilgil residents are demanding developent especially on roads. They say their contract with the current Member of parliament was election for road network development, but so far, one year to the end of the 2017-2022 term, no visible progress has been made.
