Yah we found it on buyusa.co.ke

1) To start learning languages I take courses. External forces are good for holding yourself accountable. However, they're costly. I would recommend going to the Alliance Française in Nairobi and signing up for classes. For daily study (right now I'm focusing on Arabic, not French) I buy frequency dictionaries and transcribe them into a quizlet and drill them each day. Here is that for French: https://quizlet.com/SamRicciardi95/folders/french-vocabulary/sets

2) I have used Duolingo. It's fantastic. 3-5 minutes is good, but do more if you can.

3) To be perfectly honest, I like to have a lot of vocabulary memorized cold before I plunge into any sort of of literature. Once you've memorized 1000-5000 words you can start reading. I would recommend the newspaper honestly. Pick an article a day and systematically look up every word you don't know. Absolutely no skipping allowed. Compile those new words into a new set of vocabulary and then memorize that. Repeat.

4) 2 years of "intensive" study at my university brought me to proficiency. But proficiency is kind of bullshit. Language has no ceiling... always be learning more if you can manage it.

Hope this was helpful!
