Dream On, Football.
I still dream of playing football.
That might surprise you, coming from someone who plays it for a living.
But it’s true.
I still dream of playing with my friends.
Playing until sunset. Until dinner.
Playing just because it was a game, long before it could become a career.
I have followed this dream for as long as I can remember.
Once again it has led me to one of the biggest changes in my life.
Now, I find myself surrounded by innovators who dream of the same things I do.
Of bringing foot as close as possible to ball.
Of bringing the people as close as possible to the game.
Of bringing the world as close as possible to play.
I guess that’s the thing about dreams that refuse to change.
They’re usually the ones that change everything.
Dream On.
PRESS STATEMENT
WHY KENYA'S ELECTORAL SYSTEM MUST PASS THE CONSTITUTIONAL TEST
Fellow Kenyans,
Yesterday, I appeared before the High Court in a constitutional case concerning the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (@IEBCKenya) and the integrity of Kenya's electoral system.
The petition asks the Court to test the entire chain of our elections - how Kenyans register, how they are identified at the polling station, how their votes are cast and counted, and how results are transmitted, verified and declared - against the standards the Constitution itself sets.
That question is simple to state: Does Kenya's electoral system meet the constitutional test?
Article 81 requires that elections be administered in a manner that is impartial, neutral, efficient, accurate and accountable. Article 86 requires that, whatever method is used to cast, count and transmit votes, that method be simple, accurate, verifiable, secure, accountable and transparent. The Elections Act sets the same standard for the technology IEBC deploys.
The Constitution anticipates an electoral process that is not just free and fair, but one that is also tamper-proof. Free and fair speaks to conduct on the day; tamper-proof speaks to the design of the system itself - whether it can withstand interference at any point in the chain, and whether that can be proven, not merely assumed.
To be clear, this case is not just simply about paper versus electronics.
Kenya's system already combines both - paper ballots, electronic voter identification, and electronic transmission of results. Technology, properly designed and independently verifiable, can be a powerful ally of electoral integrity: it can reduce unnecessary human discretion, create reliable audit trails, make results easier, not harder, to verify, and significantly reduce the cost of elections.
But technology is not self-certifying. It does not become trustworthy simply because it is technology. Like every other part of the electoral chain, it must be shown to satisfy the Constitution's own tests of transparency, verifiability, security and accountability - and, ultimately, to be tamper-proof.
That is the real question before the Court: does the entire electoral chain - registration, identification, casting, counting, tallying, transmission, verification and declaration - give Kenyans sufficient safeguards that their vote, once cast, cannot be manipulated, mishandled, or rendered impossible to verify?
This is not a personal quarrel with @IEBCKenya. It is a constitutional and public-interest matter.
Sovereignty in this country belongs to the people, and the vote is the sole instrument by which that sovereignty is exercised. An electoral system that cannot be meaningfully verified is not one the Constitution permits us to accept on faith.
I want to be precise about where this matter stands. The High Court has not ruled on the merits. The parties were heard, and the constitutional questions remain before the Court. I respect that process fully and will abide by whatever directions and determination the Court makes.
My role as a citizen, a public representative, and the petitioner in this matter is to ensure these questions are placed squarely before the Court and answered according to the Constitution and the law, not according to convenience or assumption.
Kenyans should not have to be told their votes were counted correctly. They should be able to verify it. That is the standard the Constitution sets, and it is the standard we are asking the Court to enforce.
The vote belongs to the people. The Constitution protects it. Our electoral system must do the same - free, fair, and tamper-proof.
We proceed, firmly and within the law.
God bless Kenya.

As Dr Fred Matiang’i takes over the party leadership from Rtd President Uhuru Kenyatta, I volunteer my skills, passion and youthful energy to serve in any of the other vacancies in the national leadership of the party. I also encourage the youth across the country to join the party and take over various leadership roles so that we become the driving force of positive change from within the room where decisions are made.
Nikipewa kazi nitaifanya kwa bidii kama punda
Mr. William Ruto, I have heard you brag and fallaciously argue that Rtd. President Uhuru Kenyatta did not defeat you when he was President and that he can't defeat you now that he is retired.
Put logically, you were elected President despite President Uhuru Kenyatta having been against you.
Let me remind you, because memory seems to fail you; You were not elected as President because President Uhuru Kenyatta failed to defeat you.
No!
President Uhuru Kenyatta did not sufficiently convince me and a majority of Kenyans that you were incapable of leading the country, that you were viciously corrupt, and that you would completely ruin our country in less than three years.
Today, you have proven to me and the whole country that President Uhuru was right. Based on that, he has no further role in convincing us that we must get rid of you on 10th August 2027 at the ballot.
President Uhuru Kenyatta is not your opponent in this election. You are just trying a bad deflection. Poor tactic Mr. Ruto, but we know you very well.
Your opponents are the people of Kenya: the payslip holders whose payslips you have raided, the GenZs whom you have abducted and killed, the Christians whose churches you have defiled, the business people whom you have run out of business, patients who have no medicine and lack medical insurance, parents and students with no access to affordable education, and all those choking under the high cost of living.
55 million Kenyans are your opponents. Have you ever heard of a President hated even by children? Even the worst dictators do better. Your ranking is on another level.
These are your real opponents, and you should not confuse them with the shadow of President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Be advised that the leaders tasked with the responsibility of removing you from office by Kenyans require no sponsorship. They have clear, and sufficient instructions from the people of Kenya. This is the first presidential election where money is not a factor. Kenyans are so determined to get rid of you that they don't require any inducement.
Every morning and evening, I am informed that what you witnessed in Olkalou and your dirty money make you quiver. You have seen nothing yet, Mr. Ruto. Olkalou was just a dress rehearsal for the forthcoming General Election.
Kenyans will take your money and vote you out. Have you forgotten the Embu-Nembure weekend ordeal of your fake deputy? Prepare enough bribes for everyone, or no one!
The decision to vote you out is settled, and only one matter is outstanding to complete the picture: the identification of a single presidential candidate to take you home. I want to assure you that this is a piece of work in progress, and very soon we shall let you know the man or woman to whom you shall hand over.
As you spend money in Nyanza to bribe people to attend your meetings, please appoint a team to start preparing your handover notes.
Your fate is sealed; Italians would kindly tell you, "Il tuo destino è segnato!"
Finito!

🚨 𝐁��𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: JJ Gabriel wants to leave Manchester United 😳
The 15-year-old wonderkid has reportedly asked to leave Manchester United and wants his registration cancelled with immediate effect, per @matt_law_dt of @telefootball
Gabriel, nicknamed “Kid Messi”, has been one of the club’s biggest academy talents and was already pushing towards the first team after scoring over 20 goals for the U18s last season 🔥
United are believed to be shocked by the request, but remain hopeful they can convince him to stay ✋
Last week, Gabriel scored a hat-trick in a UEFA Youth League match against Sabah which ended 5–0, becoming the youngest goalscorer for Man United in the competition 🫨
Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Pro and S27 Ultra are set to get their biggest upgrades in three years, including new cameras, bigger batteries and a redesigned look.
The S27 Ultra could get a 6,000mAh battery, while the Pro may get a 50MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom.
I am beggining to like sifunas style
His agenda is not based on Tribalism orethnicity, infact its evident no one cares what tribe he is from or what age group he is in
Theres barely any money being given to people to ‘show��� support for him,unlike other campaigners like gachagua,and kasongo
Theres no chaos,if theres any,its from those intimidated by his sudden emergence,it was unexpected and they dont know what to do with him. They can only watch and wait for him to make a mistake,and the more they wait the closer we get to elections
He speaks as a person more interested in changing the vices happening,than he is interested in occupying any political seat
He speaks with purpose and intention
All eyes on sifuna. Wacha tuone
🚨 Lamine Yamal: “There are great players like Messi, Cristiano and Maradona… but I think it’s NEVER happened before that someone has won so much at such an early age”.
“There was Pelé, but in recent times… never, I think”.
“People have this mindset that because I’ve won, maybe I’ll RELAX with my career at some point: NO”.
“I know I have a thousand things to do to stay in football history”, told Movistar.
Kenya is set to spend Sh57 billion on the 2027 General Election, translating to about Sh1,500 per registered voter.
This is more than double the global benchmark of Sh645 per voter.
