KRA wants a share of dowry money.
There is a guy called Kamau.
When it was time to buy his wife, he mobilized his most monied buddies.
He put them in a WhatsApp group. The fundraising began.
Those boys were loaded. They were only 35.
By by the time they were done, they had contributed 4.5 million shillings.
Others who were not in the group wired money directly to Kamau's bank account.
The ruracio D-Day arrived.
And as always, the one and only Kikuyu ruracio anthem was tuned.
🎶 Wero... Werokamu guku kwa wa Kanini... Werokamu... 🎶
Before they could finish the song, more than 2,000 people had pulled up.
Wakaanza kutoa funjo. Then one man stood on a stool and announced they could not sit until they had given Kamau top up money to add to the dowry.
The donation book was hurriedly brought. People lined up. Cash started flowing.
By the end of the day, another 2.8 million shillings had been raised.
Kamau took the money and banked it.
Total dowry contribution sitting at his bank account: 8m shillings.
The ceremony became the talk of Gatundu South.
Kamau paid his dowry. Collected his wife. And went home peacefully.
• Lesson 1. Monied friends are good for paying dowry.
I have no clue how. But sometime later, Kamau was marked for a KRA tax audit.
KRA went straight for his bank statements. They found deposits of 8 million shillings.
Immediately, they baptized the entire amount as undeclared taxable income.
Then demanded: 30% income tax. Penalties plus interest.
Total bill: 2.5 million shillings plus.
When Kamau saw the tax bill, he went mad.
He could try to talk but words would not come out. He nearly swallowed his tongue.
When he came back to real life. He shipped a protest letter to KRA.
He explained the money was dowry contribution from his family, friends and well wishers.
- He produced WhatsApp group fundraising screenshots.
- He produced RTGS confirmations.
- He produced the donation book.
- He even produced videos of the ceremony.
Including footage of the Werokamu song.
KRA could not hear any of it. They only wanted 2.5 million.
When Kamau realized KRA was not playing, he ran to court.
He told the Tribunal:
- My lord, look. I have shown KRA where the money came from.
- I have shown KRA who contributed it.
- I have shown KRA the ceremony.
- What more do they want from me?
KRA responded.
And what they said nearly made the judges fall off their chairs.
They argued the evidence was not convincing.
Why?
• Because the 2,000 plus donors had not sworn affidavits confirming that the money they gave was a donation and not payment for goods or services.
The Tribunal looked at the matter in amusement.
Then ruled.
- Kamau had discharged his burden of proof in full.
- KRA had acted unreasonably by ignoring and disregarding the substantial evidence he provided.
- And most importantly: Income tax is a tax on income. It is not a tax on every deposit appearing in a bank account.
The Tribunal found that KRA was wrong to treat all bank deposits as taxable income without first removing proven non income items such as dowry contributions.
The tax demand was killed.
Kamau won.
KRA retreated to Times Tower. And rested.
Case closed.
• Lesson 2.
- Document everything.
- KRA will push. Push hard.
The revelation by Dr. Obwoka, tragically made before his death, that he was receiving threats from the Office of the Head of Public Service is deeply disturbing. His statements to the Nation indicated that these threats were directly linked to his legal challenge concerning the management of Nairobi Hospital. Coming to light in the context of his demise, these allegations immediately cast a long shadow, suggesting a sinister interplay between his advocacy, the powerful forces he challenged, and the circumstances that may have led to his death.
The government of William Ruto banned 2 school plays, tear-gassed children at a drama festival and yet @kenyafilmcomm invited him as the guest of honor for an award ceremony knowing full well if I write a screenplay against the government I will be abducted, tortured and possibly killed by their guest of honor.
The Auditor General says the William Ruto government defaulted on security loans and diverted KSh30 billion from the Eurobond.
But this same government has spent months insisting Kenya has not defaulted on any loan.
So who is telling the truth?
And this is what should worry Kenyans most: security loans are some of the least transparent debts in government. Hard to track. Hard to question. Easy to hide.
If the Auditor General can uncover up to 5 defaults, how many more are buried where the public cannot see?
Kenyans are paying more taxes than ever, yet billions are being moved around, and debt obligations are allegedly being missed.
At what point do we stop calling these mistakes and start calling them what they are?
I have a friend whose life changed last June, when a small cottage brick company in Nyeri shut down due to losses and high taxes. That closure didn’t just end a business it left 380 people without jobs.
Brian was one of them. He had worked there for two years. Skilled. Disciplined. I first met him when he came to a school I was teaching at to deliver and install cabros you could tell he took pride in his work.
But since the closure, life has been unravelling for him. His wife left. He sold his cow goats hens. He no longer has electricity he used to have a small arrangement with his uncle, paying KSh 200 to stay connected. That’s gone now.
Today, he passed by my house after a month of not seeing him . I barely recognized him. He looked emaciated… broken. Beaten down by life. And at home, things aren’t any easier his father struggles with bipolar disorder and alcohol.
I’m not sharing this for pity. I’m sharing it because behind every closed business is a human story.
🚨 The Sovereign Wealth Fund Bill was in Parliament last week.
Kenyans are being told:
“We’re saving for the future.”
But if you read the bill, the structure tells a very different story:
👉 The Cabinet Secretary determines how the money is split between funds (p.10)
👉 The board is largely made up of government-linked officials and appointees (p.20)
👉 Key decisions sit within government structures, including the Cabinet Secretary (p.18)
Now here is the contradiction they won’t explain:
👉 Money from this “future savings fund” can be withdrawn into the Consolidated Fund, the same government budget used for day-to-day spending (p.11)
So ask yourself:
If this is truly a protected savings fund for future generations...
Why is the Cabinet Secretary part of a structure that allows that money to flow back into current government spending?
Because this is what it actually looks like:
👉 “I’m saving money for my child’s future...
....but I still keep the ATM card and can withdraw anytime I want.”
Is that really savings... or just delayed spending?
And it doesn’t end there:
👉 “Strategic infrastructure” spending is broadly defined under government priorities (p.12)
👉 The future generations fund allows policy-based adjustments within government structures (p.13-14) that could open doors for further misuse.
Meaning:
The portion meant for the future is not fully ring-fenced.
It can be influenced.
It can be adjusted.
It can be redirected.
Yes, the bill mentions audits (p.15).
But Kenya has never lacked laws or audits.
The issue has always been control and enforcement.
So let’s be honest:
This is not a strictly protected “save now, use later” fund.
This is a government-managed fund, heavily influenced by the Cabinet Secretary, with built-in pathways back into current spending.
And the question Kenyans should be asking is simple:
If the Cabinet Secretary can influence allocation, approvals, and withdrawals....
Who is actually protecting the wealth meant for future generations?
SACCO Amendment Bill--Were the majority of members ever consulted? 15% taxation!
Bureaucracy in salaries/allowances.
SACCOs built over the years by members' contributions,majority being women. Savings now on the verge of being looted
Civil Societies, take this to Court
After successfully taking your retirement money and funneling it to his bank accounts using his pet projects, Balaam Anaconda, receiver of PhD via Osmosis, has set his eyes on your Sacco Money.
The Sacco Societies Amendment Act 2025 is about to make many Sacco members cry.
🚨 There’s a SACCO bill in Parliament today, and most Kenyans don’t even know what’s coming.
Quietly... with almost no public attention…
A system is being introduced that will centralize SACCO money, and Govt will now have a massive say in it.
Think of it as a “Super SACCO” for all SACCOs.
It will:
- Hold funds from different SACCOs
- Manage liquidity
- Run payments
- Lend to SACCOs
- Invest your money
Sounds safe? Here’s the reality:
❗ SACCOs could lose some operational independence
❗ Oversight becomes much heavier (via Sacco Societies Regulatory Authority)
❗ Leaders must meet “fit & proper” approval
❗ Strict reporting & constant supervision
And yes, this could mean slower access to your money in some situations.
Now the part they won’t emphasize:
Your savings are only protected up to KSh 100,000
If a SACCO collapses?
Anything above that = your risk.
Even worse:
⚠️ Payouts are NOT immediate
⚠️ Must be approved & gazetted first
⚠️ You could wait while your money is locked
So ask yourself:
Why centralize SACCO money...
But limit protection for members?
This bill is being sold as “safety.”
But it also introduces control by the government, delays, and new risks for ordinary Kenyans.
This is how systems change,
slowly, quietly... then permanently
14 unidentified bodies found buried in a mass grave in Kericho.
Not one. Not two. Fourteen.
And for many Kenyans, this is not shocking anymore; that’s the scary part.
We saw bodies showing up in River Yala during Fred Matiang’i’s time. Questions were raised, noise was made... but to date, no real accountability.
Now under Kipchumba Murkomen, we are again hearing of bodies being dumped, this time in Kericho. Reports even mention a white Land Cruiser being used.
Let’s be honest, that detail alone raises more questions than answers.
Because in Kenya, who commonly uses such vehicles?
Instead of clear answers, what usually follows is denial, PR, and the story slowly fading away.
But we are watching. And we can see the pattern.
When people can disappear and later be found in mass graves, and no one is held responsible, it stops being an isolated incident.
It becomes a crisis.
This is not about politics. It’s about the safety and dignity of Kenyan lives.
Today it’s “unknown bodies.”
Tomorrow it could be someone you know.
Enough is enough.
The Odious Debt petition is coming up this Tuesday, 10th March 2026 at the Milimani High Court.
Kenyans need explanations on why they are being overtaxed to pay debts they never consented to.
More than Ksh 6.8T said to be public debts, cannot be traced in the economy and we cannot even confirm if such money even reached the country.
That begs the question, " who is pocketing our money?"
#DeniBandia #DrainTheSwamp
Guuuuuuuyyyyys do you know the auditor general has said that 1.3T was withdrawn from treasury and nobody knows where it landed!!!! you heard just right Trillion guys tunaibiwaaaa....
And now De Heus has opened a manufacturing plant in Athi River, Kenya…. We are messing up with our agriculture and livestock thanks to these globalists climate change ideas….,
There they go again with their concentration camps agenda again . Do they really think we would sell our homes and ancestral lands in favor of living in such prison boxes?
