If the refinery project is genuinely in Kenya’s national interest, the strongest response to critics is not “you can’t deceive us”—it is transparent evidence. Publish the contracts, costs, financing arrangements, environmental safeguards, expected jobs, fiscal benefits and risks, then let Kenyans judge the project on the facts. Good projects do not need political intimidation; they need scrutiny.

A multi-billion-shilling refinery and the jobs and energy infrastructure it could generate deserve serious protection from political interference. But the strongest protection is not presidential warnings—it is transparent rules, independent regulators and contracts that cannot be bent by political or business connections. If Kenya wants investors like Dangote, it must build institutions investors can trust beyond the tenure of any president.

The Coast land question is too serious to become another presidential promise made from a podium. Lland injustice has contributed to displacement, poverty and conflict-the solution must be transparent, lawful and independently verifiable. Not a process controlled by the same political system whose decisions will determine who ultimately benefits. Coastal communities need titles, justice and security of tenure, not another round of promises.

Duale’s statement about bringing in Somalis from Somalia should concern every Kenyan—not because it proves foreigners will vote, but because senior government figures are speaking with astonishing confidence about mobilising electoral numbers across a national border. Add the growing chest-thumping about how the 2027 election will be won, and Kenyans are entitled to demand one thing above all: a credible election whose outcome is determined by registered Kenyan voters, not political muscle.

There is something almost absurd about Kenya’s education crisis: we keep writing new laws to fix an education system that we refuse to adequately finance. Parliament can redesign governance, data, learner welfare and quality assurance, but a law cannot pay capitation, hire teachers, build classrooms or clear university debts. Kenya does not need another beautiful education framework sitting on top of a broken financing model. Fund the system, staff the schools, fix the infrastructure—and then judge the reforms by what happens to the learner.

Real people died, families were left grieving, and questions about Ruto abuses and accountability remain. Public participation matters, but it cannot become a substitute for justice. The government must address the people harmed, the families affected and the unanswered questions—not simply announce that it has “learnt its lessons.”

Ruto is discovering a curious form of politics: when you cannot match a legacy, rename an airport after it. Raila Odinga’s place in Kenya’s history will not be determined by a signboard at Kisumu Airport, nor can a new name erase the political record of those now celebrating the man they once fought. You can rename the airport; you cannot rename history.

Kenyans have seen enough action plans, frameworks and diplomatic handshakes; now show the jobs created, investments secured, projects delivered and measurable benefits reaching ordinary citizens. Diplomacy earns its keep when it leaves the conference room and shows up in people’s lives.

[Duke M @Duke_Moseti]

A huge education budget means little if schools and universities remain underfunded. The danger is when public budgets become vehicles for patronage and politically motivated spending instead of funding basic services. If money is diverted from classrooms, hospitals and other essential services, the political class may gain—but ordinary taxpayers are left paying the bill.

[Duke M @Duke_Moseti]

This is the kind of economic diplomacy Kenya should be pursuing: open markets translating into real opportunities for farmers, processors and exporters. If the zero-tariff arrangement is driving the reported growth in Kenyan exports to China, the bigger task now is scaling production, value addition and quality so Kenyan farmers capture more of the value—not just the headlines.

This is one reason governance struggles across Africa: we too often defend today’s wrongdoing by pointing to yesterday’s wrongdoing. The standard becomes “someone else did it,” instead of “is it lawful, ethical and good for the public?” A country cannot build the future by constantly measuring itself against its worst examples.

Kang’ata is thinking beyond the next political cycle—and that deserves recognition. A governor who is imagining a better-planned city is thinking about the Kenya of tomorrow, not just the politics of today. Ajawa governors like @gladyswanga could learn from that kind of long-term ambition: development should leave behind a legacy, not just a campaign slogan.

[Duke M @Duke_Moseti]

Ruto’s increasingly personal attacks cannot substitute for defending his record. When a president spends more time insulting opponents than answering questions about the economy, public spending, security and delivery, the insults become a distraction from the record Kenyans are entitled to scrutinise. A presidency should answer criticism with results—not tantrums.

[Duke M @Duke_Moseti]

The question is brutally simple: what did the 500 people who travelled to UNGA actually deliver? Without clear mandates, KPIs and a public report, the delegation looks less like diplomacy and more like political patronage—busybody passengers shopping abroad while taxpayers foot the bill. And this is happening as Kenya faces serious El Niño preparedness concerns.

@TheStarKenya There is something deeply revealing about senior police officers accompanying the Inspector General to court . The police are not above the law, and neither is their commander. When court orders are disregarded, accountability must reach the top-No need for intimidation
