Shakespeare’s Secret Masterpiece: Did the Bard Pen the King James Bible as His Greatest Prank?

Imagine a world where the greatest literary mind of all time didn’t just write Hamlet or Romeo and Juliet—but secretly crafted the King James Bible, slipping in a cheeky wink to posterity. It's a notion so audacious it feels ripped from a Shakespearean comedy: the Bard, quill in hand, pulling the wool over the eyes of kings, clergy, and history itself.

King of Impunity: High Court sentences Acting Police IG Gilbert Masengeli to Six Months in Jail for Contempt of Court



High Court Judge Lawrence Mugambi has sentenced Acting Inspector General of Police Gilbert Masengeli to six months in jail for contempt of court.
