At Serena Beach Hotel and Spa in north Coast, we find Samuel Ndunda, 52, armed with a catapult to scare away birds. Ndunda is among three people employed solely to scare away Indian house crows, a preying bird that wreaks havoc at the Coast. The workers chase the black and grey necked birds that hover around the hotel lawn looking for food. “They are a real nuisance. They grab food from plates. They excrete all over as they fly from one spot to another,” he said.

Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) Chair Ezekiel Mutua on Friday evening, January 22, accused award-winning actress Lupita Nyong o of disrespecting Tourism CS Najib Balala.
In a statement, Mutua indicated that Lupita s remark was totally inappropriate and uncalled for. She should have picked her phone and just say Waziri, I am here. I am ready to serve my country. Being a global icon should come with some loyalty to your country and respect for elders!
Lupita appears on the cover of Vanity Fair Magazine, September 2019 issue.

Tourism CS Najib Balala has explained why he appointed British Model, Naomi Campbell, as Magical Kenya International Tourism ambassador rather than the Kenyan award-winning actress Lupita Nyong o.
The CS explained his decision while addressing researches at the Kenyatta University on Thursday, January 21.
A section of Kenyans had opposed the idea while others reserved their opinions.
Balala alleged that Lupita s managers blocked Tourism officials from accessing her and that the saga dragged on for five years.
