-

Watu wangu! Today I officially turn thirty-something.

Yes, that mysterious age where you start saying “I’m still young at heart” while Googling back pain remedies.


So, happy birthday to me! 

And as is tradition, birthday presents or a little M-Pesa love are highly encouraged — the line is alive and well: 0704565790.


But today isn’t about me. The day after Tomorrow is.


On Saturday, October 11th, after Mazingira Day — and it’s all about something bigger, cleaner, and greener: the brand new Aquadel Auto Spa Carwash.

A Mission Rooted in Change


Now, if you know Aquadel Springs Drinking Water, you know these folks don’t just quench thirst — they quench ideas.

This time, they’ve truly gone beyond expectations. They’ve launched a bold mission to plant 100,000 trees by this date next year. And to begin with, this Saturday we will plant 100 trees at the carwash. 

Because, let’s face it, trees and water are like brothers — closely intertwined. You can’t talk sustainability without mentioning both.


And to mark Mazingira Day, the new Aquadel Auto Spa Carwash is turning a simple carwash into a national act of environmental love.

Free Wash, Greener Legacy



Here’s the deal that got me blaggersted:

On Saturday, 11th October, the first 10 cars to be washed at Aquadel Auto Spa Carwash will be washed absolutely free!


But Aquadel being Aquadel, they didn’t stop there. Each of those lucky car owners will get the honour to plant a tree, with their names inscribed on it.

That’s right — your own tree, marked yours for life. A true legacy that says, “I came, I cleaned, I contributed.”

Bloko’s Big Vision


The carwash is the latest brainchild of Aquadel Springs Drinking Water, guided by none other than CEO Bloko — a man whose vision for a greener Kenya could power its own irrigation system.


This Saturday, he’s pulled us all in. Fika mapema pale Aquadel Auto Spa Carwash, take advantage of this incredible offer, and enjoy the rare honour of planting your own tree.


Because when you mix water, soap, and purpose — you get the Aquadel way.

KG’s Words of Wisdom


Enter Kithinji, a.k.a KG, engineer, loyal Aquadel supporter, and part-time philosopher.

Between watching cars shine and trees line up for planting, he shared this gem:


> “Whoever gives you work is your customer — regardless of age, tribe, sex, or religion.”


He’s right. Aquadel’s philosophy is simple — everyone is welcome, everyone matters, and everyone can contribute to making the world better.


It’s CSR done right — clean business, clean impact.

The Place to Be This Saturday 


The new Aquadel Auto Spa Carwash, located about 200 metres from the Maua–Isiolo junction, is more than a carwash — it’s an experience.


Picture this:


* The best bar around, with lowest EABL prices (bless them),

* A state-of-the-heart kitchen overflowing with delicious meals 🍛,

* And the smoothest pool table you’ll find anywhere .


So whether you come for the wash, the food, or the fun, you’ll leave with a cleaner car, a lighter heart, and a greener conscience.

And hey, while tree planting might be more important than my birthday, ukiamua kuni-MPesa, I won’t stop you. 😄


Let’s celebrate Mazingira Day— clean cars, clean hearts, and a cleaner Kenya.

Photo/Martin Muthuri.  Meru teachers are not just marking books — they’re marking dance steps too. And not just any steps. The Meru Teachers’ Choir has officially danced their way to the very top, scooping first place in the Folk Dance category at the ongoing Kenya Music Festivals National Finals , right here in Meru . The victory comes barely two years since the group was formed, and only on their second appearance at the nationals. Last year, they reached the finals in Eldoret , but this year they decided to carry the whole trophy home — literally. Their win also comes with an invite to tomorrow’s prestigious Gala at Meru School , where they’ll perform in front of none other than Deputy President Prof. Kithure Kindiki . Talk about going from “staffroom practice” to State-level audience. But as group member Martin Muthuri reveals, this success was not just ...

When Meru Met Nairobi: The Night Aquadel Turned Pool Tables into Battlefields

Aquadel Pool Tournament Contestants Pose for a group picture.  Photo/Felix Kinyua. Ladies and gentlemen, gather round. I’ve written words for weddings, covered chaos, and even described a goat auction once — but never in my long, word-filled life have I been speechless. Yet this month’s Aquadel Pool Tournament did the impossible: it shut me up. I tried to write about it the next morning, but even my keyboard refused to cooperate. My mind said “poetic justice,” but my heart whispered, “bro, we got humiliated.” --- The Calm Before the Cue Storm At exactly 5PM — not a minute later, because Aquadel doesn’t do “African timing” — I strolled into the New Aquadel Auto Spa Carwash at Gakurine, a few meters from the Maua–Isiolo junction. What I found there was less of a carwash and more of a movie set. You’d think Netflix was filming The Fast and the Curious: Meru Drift . And right there, the mighty Nairobi Elite had already set up camp — sharp, slick, and dangerous in red. Our local heroes ...

Photo/Felix Kinyua.  Ladies and gentlemen, Today, allow me to take a break from my usual sermons and sorrows. No complaints, no blame games, and definitely no advice to anyone owing Fuliza. Today, we celebrate . Because this past Saturday, Makutano and its neighbouring areas witnessed something so smooth, so well-planned, so enjoyable — even Murugi’s Base couldn't believe it. This was the second edition of the Aquadel Pool Tournament, and yes, my friends, this one was different. Very different. --- How We Got Here — A Fortnight Ago, in the Backstreets Now, if you’ve been following me (and I know most of you do, even silently), you remember I recently wrote about a man called Bloko, the CEO of Aquadel Drinking Water. Back then, we were just at our humble base in Mikocheni — same pool table, same squad, same arguments about who plays next. Then Bloko showed up, saw potent...
