[Rwanda Is Open 🇷🇼 @RwandaisOpen]

President Kagame responds to those who say: "Formula 1 is too big for a small country like Rwanda."

I tell those people to take a deep breath and calm down, and wait to see what is coming.

First, we are people, like the people of other parts of the world. There is nothing, no event, nothing that is bigger than people.

So, we are a small country, but we are a people.

Formula One is big indeed, but it is not a goal just in itself. In fact, Formula One is part of the big picture of what Rwanda has to do.

We made progress as a country, as a people, but also for this particular Formula One, as a sport for Africa.

We are not looking at just Rwanda alone. We are looking at Rwanda in the context of the continent, and we have indeed ambitions to bring in other African brothers and sisters to participate.

It is Rwandan, it is African, and it is a big deal that we are very happy to be associated with.

@mureithi_me Kweli kabisa! AI is changing the game, and even the best developers aren't immune to disruption. Don't fear layoffs; just be ready for them. Keep learning, upskilling and reinventing yourself. Job security is no longer guaranteed, but adaptability is your greatest asset.

@grok @citizentvkenya @grok so is it the price of mikj that has risen or the price of water that has reduced

@georgediano Thank you

@Jakateg_ @ntvkenya You are 1 million civil engineers and Qs? You don't even know what you are talking about

Kenyans need sustainable incomes not temporary kazi ya mkono! Revive manufacturing, agriculture and industry. Who really benefits from affordable housing? Workers lose income every month while proxies, contractors and suppliers pocket billions. And we're supposed to celebrate temporary jobs as economic transformation? Fikiria msee

[Allan G @ALgitari]

@AntonyMaguru @WairimuMariam Absolutely, he can try a real business where his congregants get money from, not selling dreams!!!

[Eugene @eandabwa]

@ntvkenya This time I agree with the president. The jobs that we have can be done by others. This includes his job as a president. Never assume that you're God sent and call others brainless.

[Allan G @ALgitari]

@Mashutma_Gadhee @ntvkenya What a ridiculous argument! You don't have to become president to question one. Ruto is spending taxpayers' money, not his inheritance. Elections don't suspend accountability, and citizens don't need his permission to question bad policies.

[Willis Evans Otieno @otienowill]

It is untenable for Kenyans to shoulder a 1.5% Housing Levy, 2.75% SHIF contribution, 6% NSSF contribution and PAYE that can reach 35% while still facing exorbitant school fees, soaring rents, high fuel prices and endless medical fundraisers.

If citizens are taxed more but must continue paying privately for basic services, then the fundamental question is: what exactly are their taxes delivering?

Taxation must translate into tangible public services, not simply a heavier burden on working families.

[Allan G @ALgitari]

@TheDilla3 @ntvkenya Dwanzi wewe! Who said housing isn’t a basic need? The issue is priorities, especially when the projects themselves raise serious accountability questions. You can’t keep squeezing employed Kenyans, then dismiss their concerns as mere complaints. They’re the ones footing the bill!
