🚨BREAKING: JAPAN WILL ASK EVERY CITIZEN TO STOCK FOOD, WATER AND TOILET SUPPLIES FOR AT LEAST 3 DAYS, IDEALLY 1 WEEK.

Britain, France, Germany and the EU have already told their people to keep emergency supplies ready.

Here's what's happening:

→ THE REQUEST: Disaster minister Goshi Hosono will issue an "emergency request" to every citizen, the central ministries and all prefectures on November 2.

→ 1 WEEK: He wants food, water and toilet supplies at home for "at least 3 days" and, "if possible, 1 week."

→ ON YOUR OWN: He wants every home able to get by "even without public help."

→ THE THREATS: a Nankai Trough quake, a quake right under Tokyo, giant quakes along the Japan and Chishima trenches, and a Mount Fuji eruption.

→ DAY ONE: Japan is LAUNCHING a new Disaster Management Agency that same day, and the request will come on its first day.

Think about this.

People in Japan saw the headline and asked online if World War 3 was coming.

The minister's own list is earthquakes and a volcano.

In 6 days, every citizen in Japan gets the same ask: 3 days at least, 1 week if possible.

Follow me. I'll post the full request on November 2, the day it goes out.

70 Christians were marched into a church and beheaded.

Stand with persecuted Christians: https://t.co/iLCWcx9l0n

[Bishop Robert Barron @BishopBarron]

Friends, in just two days, Christians were murdered on two continents.

On Friday, gunmen opened fire on a funeral at St. George’s Greek Orthodox Church in Karak, Jordan, and killed nine people. On Saturday, armed men attacked Orthodox churches and homes in Oromia, Ethiopia, and killed more than forty.

These are not statistics. They are our brothers and sisters, members of the mystical Body of Christ. When Saul set out to destroy the Church, the risen Jesus asked him, “Why are you persecuting me?” The Lord is still being persecuted in these victims of anti-Christian violence.

Christianity is by far the most persecuted religion in the world today. Those of us who worship in comfort have to ask what the deaths of these martyrs demand of us. At the very least, they demand that we pray for them, learn their names, press our leaders to act, and refuse to look away.

The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

The videos emerging from Africa of Islamists slaughtering Christians are truly satanic.

I have seen a video of Jihadists cutting the limbs off young Christian men and women before beheading them.

I genuinely don't understand why nobody is talking about this.

I am wondering: a Kenyan who has lived in the DRC for 7 years catches Ebola. He is hospitalized for one month in that country. He travels many km to Kampala. Catches a plane to Nairobi. He is driven to hospital after landing. Is admitted and dies. Is this logical?

EVERY voter in Kenya’s IEBC register must be IDENTIFIABLE and VERIFIABLE. Over 7 million of the IEBC voters register records lack photographs and complete biometric information.
@IEBCKenya MUST subject those records to a transparent forensic audit and remove those proven to belong to deceased, duplicate, fictitious or OTHERWISE INELIGIBLE voters.
The integrity of the 2027 election depends on a clean, accurate and independently verifiable register. #ReKe #GetitDone #Rekebisha

The RSF is welcome in Kenya, but not the Burundian street vendor. A militia that has killed and discriminated on the basis of ones ethnicity and race has the diplomatic red carpet rolled out for its leaders. Yet the scapegoat for a struggling economy is the Burundian street vendor.

THE STANDARD GROUP PLC
PRESS STATEMENT

Nairobi, Kenya

September 1, 2026

STANDARD GROUP CONDEMNS ABDUCTION OF ITS SENIOR EDITOR, DEMANDS HIS IMMEDIATE AND SAFE RELEASE

The Standard Group PLC confirms that shortly before 9:20pm this evening, our Associate Editor, Alex Kiprotich, was abducted along the Gilgil–Nakuru road while travelling to Nakuru. We do not know where he is as we issue this statement.

This is the second time in as many months that Mr Kiprotich has been targeted. On 27 June 2026, armed men in a Toyota Probox a vehicle model repeatedly linked to enforced disappearances of government critics in Kenya, tried to seize him from his car as he drove to work in Nakuru. He got away by locking his doors and driving off. That attempt came days after President William Ruto publicly criticised this Group over its coverage, and our own investigations traced the vehicle to the National Police Service's Crime Research and Intelligence Bureau. No one has ever been held to account for it.

Tonight, that threat has been carried out.
We do not believe this is a coincidence. Mr Kiprotich has been at the forefront of our editorial output, including reporting that has scrutinised the conduct of the State, and tonight's abduction bears all the hallmarks of a targeted attack on a journalist for doing his job.

We believe it may be linked to elements within the State seeking to intimidate this Group into silence. If that is confirmed, this is not simply a crime against one man. It is an assault on the Constitution of Kenya, on the freedoms of expression and of the media guaranteed under Articles 33 and 34, and on the right of every Kenyan to independent information.

We say this plainly and without equivocation: the Standard Group holds the State responsible for Alex Kiprotich's safety and his life, and for anything that happens to him while he remains missing. Protecting the life and liberty of every citizen is the State's first duty, not an afterthought, and Mr Kiprotich's safety now rests entirely in its hands.

We are demanding:
1. The immediate, safe and unconditional release of Alex Kiprotich.

2. A prompt, transparent and independent investigation into his abduction, and into why no one has ever answered for the attempt of June 27, 2026.

3. Real, visible guarantees that journalists in Kenya will be protected, in keeping with commitments the President has already made publicly and has so far failed to honour.

We are calling on the Independent Policing Oversight Authority, the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights, the Law Society of Kenya, the Media Council of Kenya, the Committee to Protect Journalists, and everyone who values a free press in this country, to demand answers alongside us until Mr Kiprotich is found safe.

We will keep the public informed as we learn more, and we will not let this matter quietly fade from view.

GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER,

The Chairman of IEBC and his Vice Chair are determined to force the discredited MIRU Systems Technology from South Korea into the 2027 General Elections for financial gain and to bungle the elections.

After they suspected that the scheme would face exposure and public scrutiny showing how they tailor-made the specifications and sneaked them into the tender to have a predetermined outcome, IEBC commissioners tried to force officials in the Directorate of Supply Chain Management and the Directorate of Electoral Management to own the specifications in defence of the Commission in the case filed before the Public Procurement Administrative Review Board challenging the skewed procurement in favour of MIRU Systems.

The officials have firmly refused to give false testimony to facilitate corruption and electoral fraud.

Consequently, the Chairman and his Vice Chair have victimized officials in the two departments and transferred all of them, except the compromised head of department, to far-flung counties and replaced them with cronies.

Patriotic IEBC officials have sought me out from my short holiday and requested me to inform Kenyans of the rot, the intimidation, and the plans to bungle the 2027 General Elections.

It is my belief that the Public Procurement Administrative Review Board will also show patriotism to the country and cancel this tender in its ruling later today.

It is my considered opinion, following advice from procurement experts and IEBC insiders, that it is not technically possible to procure a new election management system given that the elections are 11 months away, and there is practically no time to facilitate digital migration from the current system and address whatever inadequacies are anticipated.

Again, there is real and genuine fear that the change of the election management system at this late hour is a scheme to interfere with the voters' register, mostly in areas where Mr. William Ruto has been openly rejected.

I call upon the IEBC to call off this tender and instead upgrade the current system to address the few shortcomings identified so far.

Lastly, I call upon the IEBC Chairperson and Vice Chairperson to stop the harassment and victimization of staff who have chosen professionalism and patriotism over manipulation and corruption.

Mr. Chairman, do not throw Kenya into chaos and anarchy. Do not subvert the will of the people of Kenya. Leave Kenyans to make their decision at the ballot. You live in Kenya, you have access to the people, and you can hear what they are saying about sending this regime home come 10th August 2027.

Be patriotic, Mr. Chairman!
