@Maryian96 I guess its pretty clear that we might be on the same side but some of us are not supporting the same thing - justice, rule of law etc. Why oppose Ruto and support such a heinous act? This is evil regardless of the reasons.

[Bonnie Mwangi, CPA, LLM, MBA @MwangiBonnie]

My people of Kiambu County:

Today, I am announcing my candidacy for Governor of Kiambu County.

I am humbled to do so as a member of the People’s Liberation Party, PLP, the Party of Competence, Prudence, and a Progressive Agenda for all Kenyans – not just some of us.

I want to begin by thanking @MarthaKarua, the leader of our party, a patriot, a long-term public servant, and an exemplary citizen of our republic, for welcoming me into this movement. I also want to thank my friends, my family, and every Kenyan who has encouraged me, challenged me, and walked with me on this journey.

Today, I want to tell you why I am doing this.

I was not born into power. I was not raised by privilege. I was raised by a single mother, Mary Njeri. She was tough. She was disciplined. She was determined. She did not have wealth or status, but she had grit, dignity, and an unshakable belief that her children could rise.

I describe her as the person who taught me the most important lessons of my life: do not pity yourself, work hard, treat people with kindness, and if you are blessed, be a blessing to others.

Then tragedy struck.

Three months after I finished high school, my mother fell gravely ill and passed away. I was 18 years old. My younger sister was 15. In that moment, childhood ended for me. I had to step up, not in theory, but in real life.

I had to become a guardian, a provider, and a steady hand for my sister. I did not have the luxury of collapsing. I had to make decisions. I had to grow up fast. And I did.

By the grace of God, through perseverance and discipline, I built a life and a career. I went on to study and earn an education many can only dream of: four master’s degrees, including an MBA from Cornell University’s Johnson School, and an LLM in Business Law from Osgoode Hall Law School. I became a CPA in the United States and Canada.

I worked as an economist and management consultant in the United States and Canada, including at leading firms such as Deloitte and Ernst & Young, advising major companies and helping them navigate complex business challenges.

But no matter where I went, my heart remained here.

Over the last few years, many Kenyans have come to know me because I chose to use my voice, my training, and my experience to research, publish, and educate the public about the wastage, greed, rot, and incompetence that have come to define government in Kenya.

I did not do that because it was convenient. I did it because I felt I owed my country something. A small token of gratitude. A duty. A responsibility.

Especially to young Kenyans, whose future is being stolen in broad daylight.

And let us speak plainly about that future.

Kenya is a young country. The median age in Kenya is about 20 years. This means ours is a nation of young dreams, young talent, young ambition, and young potential. But what kind of politics have we built for this young nation?

A politics of insiders. A politics of appetite. A politics where too many leaders treat public office as a feeding trough instead of a sacred trust.

Our country’s debt burden is now crushing. Over KSH 12 trillion today. Today, our country is spending over 80% of our entire national income on “debt service”. That means more and more of what Kenyans pay is NOT going to classrooms, clinics, water, roads, or opportunity. It is going to service yesterday’s debt while today’s citizen is left stranded.

And at the county level, the pattern is often the same: too much spent on payroll, allowances, travel, and maintenance of government itself; too little spent on development that citizens can see and touch. Our government – national and county – is now known primarily for corruption, greed, incompetence, opulence, and indifference.

THIS MUST CHANGE.

So to the young people of Kenya, let me say this clearly: the next election is one of the most important elections in our country’s history. Because the question before us is no longer academic.

The question is whether this country will be organized around the future of its people, or around the appetites of a political class that has mistaken public service for private entitlement.

And now let me speak directly to the people of Kiambu.

Kiambu should be one of the best-run counties in the Republic of Kenya. We are industrious. We are strategic. We are close to the capital. We are rich in talent, enterprise, agriculture, commerce, and human capital. If Kiambu were governed with common sense, business sense, and integrity, this county would be a model for the whole nation.

Instead, what do we see?

We see a government too focused on itself.

Over the past three years, @Wamatangi_ has led and overseen what is effectively a criminal enterprise out of the County Government.

The County Government is nothing less of a criminal enterprise.

It starts by consuming almost everything on itself.

In the first three years under Governor Wamatangi, the county illegally diverted KSH 5.5 billion from serving citizens and spent it on insiders in the county government – by spending a massive amount on salaries beyond the legal limit.

For example, in the first year of the current government – about 61% of all revenue went to salaries for the 1% in government – when the legal limit is 35%.

For that particular year – this money grab resulted in the county spending ONLY 11% Of revenue on development, against the legal minimum of 30%.

In 2024-2025, the county devoted only 17.9% of revenue to development, against the legal limit of 30%!

This is not prudence. This is not discipline. This is a government consuming too much of what belongs to wananchi.

An extraction machine.

When 1% of those in the county start by taking 61% of all revenue for themselves in salaries alone, - the result is that our children will go to school and find no desks. Patients will go to a hospital to find no equipment. No medicine. No beds.

And, citizens will turn on the water tap only to find there is no water.

This is not hyperbole- it is lived reality in a county with enough resources and so much promise.

Because those in government have perverted government into a tool for extraction.

As opposed to, using it as a tool for serving citizens.

And then there is wasteful spending.

The Controller of Budget reported that in FY 2024/25, Kiambu spent KSh 304.49 million on domestic travel and KSh 77.80 million on foreign travel, the foreign travel being incurred entirely by the County Assembly.

The same report lists examples that should offend every serious taxpayer:

21 officers from the Kiambu County Assembly traveled to Dubai in October 2024 for “training on capacity building for legislators” at a cost of KSh 15.83 million.

14 officers went to Dubai in January 2025 for “CPST training” at a cost of KSh 7.91 million.

13 officers traveled to Dubai in April 2025 for another “capacity building” trip costing KSh 7.18 million.

During the same period, the county spent only KSh. 100 million on bursaries in a county of 2.5 million people.

In other words, for every shilling spent on bursaries, 4 are spent on wasteful travel.

This is the culture we must end: endless seminars, endless travel, endless allowances, and too little value for citizens.

UPSIDE-DOWN PRIORITIES.

The Auditor-General’s findings are even more disturbing.

For FY 2023/24, the Auditor-General found KSh 65.25 million processed through manual payroll over six months, and salary payments made outside the payroll system. The same report flagged irregularities in use of goods and services, including allowances paid outside payroll and not taxed, payments to MCAs covered by the County Executive despite the Assembly’s independent budget, and questionable domestic-travel related spending.

The Auditor-General also questioned the regularity of KSh 93.78 million in pharmaceutical procurement, flagged KSh 24.89 million in pending bills paid without verification or audit to confirm authenticity, and noted contingent liabilities of KSh 517.32 million in court cases against the County Executive. These are not minor bookkeeping errors.

These are flashing red lights.

And the scandals do not stop there.

In April 2025, the @EACCKenya said it was investigating alleged fraudulent deals worth about KSh 1.5 billion involving Kiambu County officials, and reported recovering KSh 12 million and USD 13,000 from Governor Wamatangi’s residence during raids.

Later, the EACC moved to court to try and recover what it called proceeds of crime and unjust enrichment amounting to KSh 813.1 million.

These are allegations and legal processes, not convictions, but they are serious, and they reinforce what too many citizens already feel: that corruption and impunity have become normalized in Kiambu public life.

Then there is the @Tatu_City matter, which should alarm every person who cares about jobs and investment.

In July 2024, Tatu City management publicly accused Governor Wamatangi and county officials of abuse of office and extortion, saying approval of the new master plan had been held up while land worth billions was being demanded. In subsequent court filings, Tatu City’s representatives maintained that the governor abused his office and attempted to force surrender of land for a governor’s residence without compensation.

The point is this: when investors see a county locked in public warfare over land, extortion claims, and regulatory hostage-taking, it is Kiambu’s reputation, Kiambu’s jobs, and Kiambu’s future that suffer.

In another example of the level of criminality taking place in the county government – my own application for a development permit was confiscated and hidden by corrupt county officials – after which county officials offered to “find it” once a ransom was paid.

Imagine that!

So I say to the people of Kiambu: enough.

Enough of corruption.
Enough of incompetence.
Enough of bloated government.
Enough of politics that asks citizens to sacrifice while leaders feast.

The difference between our potential and our reality is not destiny. It is decision-making. It is who sits at the table, and what values they bring when they get there.

That is why I am running.

I am running because Kiambu needs prudence, purpose, and progress.

Prudence means discipline. It means every shilling must be treated as sacred. It means cutting the bloat, hard-capping payroll, publishing spending, killing waste, and ending the culture of entitlement. It means government must stop living like a cartel and start living within its means. That is not theory. That is how serious institutions are run.

Under my plan, I will reduce wasteful and illegal spending on compensation to 25% of the budget - which is not only doable but is the norm in well-run governments and the private sector.

This will be achieved not by mass firings, but through common sense elimination of wastage, illegal compensation, and fighting ghost worker fraud.

This alone will save citizens KSH 33 billion in just 5 years, which we will deploy to build top notch healthcare facilities, roads, and other infrastructure.

Purpose means government must remember why it exists. Government does not exist to enrich those in office. It exists to serve citizens. To educate children. To support enterprise. To build roads. To fund clinics. To improve water access. To restore dignity to public service.

I will cut wasteful spending, spend funds with purpose, and eliminate corruption.

Progress means results. Not slogans. Not ceremonies. Not ribbon cutting without delivery. Real progress means bursaries that reach students, hospitals that function, roads that are completed, procurement that is clean, and a county economy that creates jobs.

Deploying the above savings to serve citizens with purpose is what will lead to progress for all citizens - not just those in and around government.

While I am formally the most qualified person to vie for this seat, my greatest qualification is not my academic degrees and outstanding professional experience: I bring two things that Kiambu desperately needs:

Common sense and business sense.

Common sense means government decisions must make sense to ordinary citizens. If wananchi can see that a decision is absurd, then leaders should not hide behind procedure and jargon.

Business sense means public money must only be spent where it adds value. Every shilling must have a purpose. Every program must be measured. Every priority must be tested against one question: does this improve the life of the citizen?

That is my strength.

I have spent nearly two decades solving real problems in high-performance environments. I have advised major institutions. I have managed complexity. I understand numbers. I understand incentives. I understand waste.

I understand, respect, and appreciate the purpose of government, which is, to serve citizens.

And I know that with integrity, discipline, and courage, Kiambu can be transformed.

To the young people of Kiambu, let me end with this:

Governor Wamatangi was given a test. The test was simple: could he put you first and serve you?

On the evidence now before the public, he has failed that test.

Now it is our turn.

Our test as citizens is whether we will stand up.

Whether we will choose our future over their greed.

Whether we will prefer water for everyone over champagne for a few.

Whether we will choose schools, clinics, roads, jobs, and dignity over waste, travel, allowances, and corruption.

I ask you for the honor of a lifetime: Let me represent you at the table where decisions are made.

Let us rescue Kiambu.

Let us restore honesty to government.

Let us prove that public office can still be about service.

Let us build a county worthy of our children.

Kiambu, change is here.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

Kenya is about to pay KSh 10 BILLION to a company that no longer exists.

And it gets worse, we could end up paying KSh 30 BILLION.

Here’s how:

In 2013, KETRACO awarded a €24.5M contract to a Spanish firm, Inabensa, for the Lessos-Tororo power line. The CS energy then was Davis Chirchir.

The project collapsed in 2016.

In 2019, an arbitration ruled Kenya must pay.
By 2022, the Supreme Court upheld it.
The bill has now ballooned to ~KSh 10B with interest.

BUT,
Inabensa went bankrupt in Spain weeks after winning the case. Then it was dissolved.

Now multiple parties are circling the same money:
-Inabensa owners
-Another Spanish firm claims the rights
-Insolvency administrators (Ernst & Young) can claim too.

All while KETRACO’s accounts (NCBA, KCB, Co-op, Citi, Standard Chartered) are already being frozen

Meaning this:
👉 Kenya doesn’t even know WHO to pay
👉 Pay the wrong party, and you STILL owe others
👉 Total exposure? Up to KSh 30 BILLION

Think about that for a moment.

Leaders like Chirchir signed bad deals in 2013, etc.
They stay in office till today.
Kenyans then have to pay the price using their taxes.

We need a law:
If your decision costs the country billions, you should NEVER hold public office again.
Because this isn’t just incompetence.
At this level, it starts looking deliberate.

@Eddie_Mugoh This conversation is so long overdue. Banks have been such a huge let down to our economy. Their privileged choice to allocate capital gives them a very high responsibility in determining who or what succeeds.

[Nanyuki Billionaire🇰🇪 @lewis_ngunyi]

Kenyans, I need your help. Please read through 🙏🏾

Do you remember this story of this young girl that died in Nanyuki as a consequence of being mishandled by the police during the protests crackdown last year?

Remember this account @D__wy (Darwin)? He was present at the police cells when it happened? He's the one who identified the officer who brutalised Julia (God rest her soul) and stood bravely as a willing witness to this case.

Well, as at today, Darwin has been in police custody for 3 weeks. Here's his charge sheet. He's being charged with the offense of trafficking narcotics (heroin, mind you) and the officers behind this case have been frustrating the legal process, failing to produce documents relating to the case etc.

Darwin is being held in Nanyuki prison, having struggled to raise Ksh 50k bail set by court, (has been there for 3 weeks now). The idea of these false charges is to set the cost of civic participation so high to the individual that they refuse to take part in collective efforts if it ever got to it.

I've paid this price myself before. Steep. Painfully. And the state has the capacity to grind your life to a halt, long before people remember why they're doing this to you.

Now, 2 years ago, @IPOA_KE and security representatives assured me that this victimisation of young politically active Nanyuki youth would stop, and we resolved to maintain peace and calm.

It would appear that there's a growing appetite to test the resolve of Nanyuki residents once more. At a time when there are a million and one other reasons pushing people to a seemingly inevitable boiling point.

Fine.

Let's do it then.

This week, we'll attempt to resolve this matter amicably, as I still retain the almost naive belief that sense still reigns within the justice system, however many times I've personally been let down by it.

Then afterwards we shall explore all other available means as guided by Article 1 of the Kenyan Constitution on the explicit absoluteness of the people's power.

In the meantime, if you'd like to support Darwin's bail fundraiser, please get in touch with me.

Thank you.

Cynthia Maloba died one of the most painful deaths.

The man in the first photo locked her house from the outside, poured petrol, and lit a match while she was inside with her 8-month-old baby.

Cynthia succumbed to severe burns, while her daughter remained in the ICU for days with critical injuries. She died trying to shield her child from the fire. What is most painful is that the man who was seen lighting the match is still a free man. He has not been charged in any court—despite being arrested, he was later released.

He bribed police officers at Bungoma Police Station, who then kept silent. We will hold a protest at the police headquarters in Nairobi on Thursday, together with human rights groups, if the suspect is not arrested by then.

The Islamic imam who put 1million naira to any Muslim that can behead a pastor for preaching Jesus has said:

“…whoever carries out this job (of beheading the pastor), I swear to Allah I’ll give him one million naira. We have nothing to lose even if after beheading this pastor, the Arewa plunges into chaos, we have nothing to lose…”

Dear @OfficialDSSNG @PoliceNG
We know you will pretend not to see this. But we are bringing this to your attention again.

There are Muslim clerics in northern Nigeria who are openly calling for the beheading of Christian pastors.

Pls help retweet this for the world to see.
