@Mukiha

I don't think what you suggested will work for me,I don't want to be just another writer,I have something in mind to do with finance,economics etc. I find the current depth of finance literature in our dailies quite wanting. Many people here (Mukiha included) could do a better job.

Plus now that I am away from my family I tend to have some time to myself that I believe could be better used.

The income is secondary at this point,a column in any major newspaper would have synergies with what I currently do and that by itself will enhance my stock.

But are you saying I just mail the write-up to the editor? Will I get feedback either way ama he will pull a Djinn's Fatherhood 101 on me.

By the way I like that column sana,pole Djinn.

I guess if you can't win with facts,you can always pen bile-laced,xenophobic rants to distract everyone.

Obi-why not start your own business blog and stick it http://kenyaunlimited.com/feed.php kenyanbloggers' website? I am sure if you have unique business insights,guys will flock there.

.....but if it is contacts you want: NMG group managing editor is Joseph Odindo,Daily Nation's managing editor is Mutuma Mathiu,EastAfrican's managing editor is Ali Zaidi.......

But trust me,these guys want to boost their circulation,therefore if you are not a good writer,they will not print your pieces....even if you are their brother!

That's why BD need's a change of guard right at the top...because the current managing editor does not know what good business writing is all about!!

I'm now convinced that the two are quite different.Mukiha is a PLC major while Jammo is a stocks guru.At least we have learnt something from the thread.You can become a writer first by writing to the Editor and later negotiating for a column,is n't is good?


I mean fundamental analysis,you get me?

Fundamental analysis of a business involves analyzing its financial statements and health,its management and competitive advantages,and its competitors

@fundaah... mukiha=jammo? That is quite an honor! Albeit fact u are terribly wrong. But thank u.
