KEY TAKEAWAYS
A government should be devoid of emotions and should be able to focus without any iota of vindictiveness on serving the people of Kenya. If anything, the truth is, Kenya needed to buy back Telkom in full to be able to enjoy, maximize and leverage Telkom’s infrastructure which is key to our national security.
In today’s competitive business world, it is more important than ever to have people who can close deals and grow businesses. These individuals are essential to the success of any company, and they should be valued and respected for their contributions. I mean, closing deals is the one thing every entrepreneur and business owner desires above all, to know how to close deals in the shortest time possible.
There are many reasons why people who can close deals and grow businesses are so valuable:
First, they can identify and capitalize on opportunities. They have a keen eye for what is working and what is not, and they can quickly adapt to changing market conditions.
Second, they are skilled at building relationships. They are able to connect with potential customers and partners on a personal level, which can make all the difference in closing a deal.
Third, they are persistent and driven. They don’t give up easily, even in the face of rejection. They are always looking for new ways to close deals and grow businesses. This makes me think of who in Kenya we can celebrate or even discuss on this level. Do we have a serious deal closer? The one that I think of is John Ngumi, the blue-eyed boy of investment.

Back to John Ngumi, I think the Kenya Kwanza administration and Parliament should acknowledge the entrepreneurial ability of John Ngumi and tap into it instead of trying to criminalize one’s ability to make money, in a way they know how.
