@wayhomes Very poor. Carrick will be sacked by December. Honeymoon is over. Mis passes, no urgency, they don't care at all

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@FabrizioRomano Please @FabrizioRomano any update on United transfer latest. I'm a United fan from Kenya. My club seems to be quite on the market recently

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@wayhomes I thank God he got an injury as early as now so that INEOS aren't fooled thinking that the ca use mount as the third midfielder

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@wayhomes And I like the sharpness of Amad. He seems to carry this form from the where he left during World Cup. We're also pressing well and front foot football 💪

Ruto just spent 40 minutes trying to create a false equivalence between our national values set out in the constitution and his so called “development”. Kenyans, please trust me when i tell you there is a reason the Preamble comes before Article 43. You don’t get to the “development “ clauses until and unless you have taken into account the reasons we passed this constitution in the first place. Democracy, Human Rights, Freedom, Equality, Rule of Law and Social Justice.

Watching Ruto speak about investor confidence, economic recovery and booming opportunities sometimes feels like watching The Truman Show, where one man lives inside a carefully manufactured world and everyone surrounding him helps keep the illusion alive.

Truman wakes up each morning believing his peaceful town is real, never knowing that the houses, roads, weather, news and people around him are all part of a giant television production controlled from behind the scenes.

Ruto appears to wake up inside a similar political production, where advisers arrive with attractive charts, ministers praise economic growth, bloggers celebrate imaginary achievements and officials assure him that Kenyans are finally enjoying the fruits of his policies.

Outside that carefully managed set, businesses are closing, workers are losing jobs, traders are being buried under taxes and people who once supported entire families are now borrowing money for food, rent and school fees.

In Truman’s world, his wife, best friend, neighbours and colleagues are actors who know the truth but continue playing their roles, smiling at him and repeating reassuring lines whenever he begins suspecting that something is wrong.

Ruto has Cabinet Secretaries, economic advisers, governors, MPs and government propagandists doing exactly that, constantly telling him the economy is performing well, even when almost every Kenyan knows someone whose life has collapsed under his government.

Whenever Truman attempts to escape his artificial town, the producers create traffic jams, accidents, storms and frightening warnings meant to push him back into the comfortable lie they have built around him.

Whenever Kenyans challenge Ruto’s economic story, his government produces another excuse involving global conditions, past governments, dishonest traders, lazy young people or citizens who supposedly cannot recognise the opportunities surrounding them.

The illusion begins collapsing when Truman notices a studio light falling from the sky, people repeating the same movements and a radio station accidentally describing his exact location as he drives through town.

Ruto’s falling studio lights are the empty shops, auctioned homes, unpaid salaries, struggling schools, closed businesses and formerly comfortable Kenyans who have suddenly been reduced to begging relatives and friends for survival.

The clearest sign that the set is collapsing is that the economic success Ruto describes cannot be found anywhere outside government speeches, political rallies, State House dinners and businesses owned by people close to his administration.

The only people who appear to recognise this booming economy are Ruto, his friends, government contractors and officials whose salaries, allowances, tenders and lifestyles are protected by the same taxpayers being told to tighten their belts.

In The Truman Show, millions watching from outside understand that Truman’s world is fake, but the man living at the centre of it remains trapped inside the story created for him by people benefiting from the production.

That is Ruto’s Kenya today, a giant political studio where those surrounding the President keep reading from the investor-confidence script, even as the real country outside the cameras becomes poorer, angrier and more desperate.

The question is whether Ruto genuinely believes the production around him, or whether he knows the economy is collapsing for ordinary Kenyans and simply expects everyone to keep acting until the final credits roll.

Weird Ruto saying there’s increased “investor confidence”. He keeps talking these and other sweet narratives when ordinary businesses are dying, incomes are collapsing and formerly stable families are becoming desperate to make a living! Social justice and rule of law when the government has failed to respect any of the values

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@wayhomes He just wasted his time talking nonsense. I thought they were serious matters like extrajudicial killings, cost of living, university funding model etc kumbe ni vision 2060 ya ujinga

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@wayhomes @edwinsifuna That's our president

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

RT @wayhomes: We cannot a country without the rule of law! We cannot run the country on Mambo ni Matatu! We need a listening government tha…

@wayhomes @footballontnt This guy is overrated. For me he's a decent squad player and not even a starter. Chelsea were desperate and immediately Aston Villa heard of that money then they couldn't resist cause waliona hao Chelsea ni mafala😁

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@wayhomes @footballontnt This market is going crazy. For me I don't think he's worth more than 70mil. This is how English players get decievd to be top players just because of big money moves.

🩸What happens when malaria declines, but severe anaemia persists?
📊A 26-year hospital surveillance study of 80,000+ paediatric admissions in Kilifi, Kenya shows that severe anaemia is associated with a higher risk of invasive bacterial infections with the burden shifting to older children.
📚Our latest research highlight underscores the need for early diagnosis, appropriate treatment, continued surveillance and stronger health systems in improving child survival.

France 🇫🇷 vs Morocco 🇲🇦 will be wholly officiated by Argentinian referees... let that sink in. FIFA is trying by all means to make sure Argentina gets to the final and has the least competition in that final.

Why not just give them the trophy & spare the world this charade?

We argue for a profiling-driven, evidence-based path to symbiont-based coral restoration—especially where reefs are under threat but baseline data and resources remain limited.

@wayhomes @vacapreviu At this rate I think you should go and live in Argentina 😂😂

🌎🇬🇭 England and Ghana share points!

Who’s been your Man of the Match?

[Joel Owaret @JOwaret]

@wayhomes @piersmorgan @Cristiano 😂😂. I love watching messi because I believe he's a natural and most gifted player. Both of this players needed each other to push to the next level. Even messi teammates said he needed Ronaldo to push him and Same with Ronaldo he needed messi. That's why they've dominated
