I have gone through the video in the link provided and I did not get
what was being said. To complement that, there is a pdf manual that has
screenshots explaining the step by step process of installing Kiwix. You
can find it at [1]. Hope that helps.

Hi Folks,

I have finally secured a copy of the Geography Syllabus that was still
lacking.
It is a 130 page document and I will talk to the owner to allow me have it

it to digital copies. There is a million of those and they are quite
accurate.

Hello,
Karibu Abbas.

him a copy of the New Kenyan syllabus which had Maths, Chemistry,
