President William Ruto has offered the United States President Donald Trump a strategic foothold in the vast rare earth and niobium deposits at Mrima Hill in Kwale County, estimated to be worth about Sh9.7 trillion ($62.4 billion).
Isiders say that China, which currently dominates the global critical minerals industry, was double-crossed in their previous agreement with Kenya.

William Ruto can't be the best thing that ever happened to this country.
This fuel increase is economic terrorism against Kenyans.
Petrol is up, Diesel is up. Transport will go up, food will go up, power backups will become more expensive, and every small business will be squeezed again.
You cannot keep looting, overtaxing and mismanaging a country, then punish citizens at the pump and call it regulation.
Whoever came up with the phrase cheap is expensive certainly never fueled at Astrol Petrol Station.
1. It is 100% Kenyan, founded in 2000 by the late Thayu Kamal Kabugi and is now run by the son, James Mwangi.
2. They not only own the land their stations are built on to cut costs but also manage their stations directly rather than franchising.
3. Their fuel contains a high 91 PON rating, which is higher than the premium fuels around, including V-Power.
4. They are not only 2 - 7 shillings cheaper but also never hoard fuel whenever there are shortages.
We don’t appreciate such companies enough
⚠️ If you use Ngong–Suswa Road, read this.
Around Gashagasha, criminals have turned part of the road into a trap.
They scatter sharp objects on the road → you drive over and get a puncture → you’re forced to stop.
That’s when they come for you and rob you.
3 victims already.
If your tyre suddenly goes flat in that area, do NOT stop immediately.
Drive to a safer, populated place. The star has also highlighted a similar case.
@moneyacademyKE the price of diesel matching that of petrol is how you know the economy is in the pit
ideally, diesel is a production input it ought to be subsidized to keep the cost of production low.
petrol is largely a consumer product it can take hits without much damage to the economy
So on the Daily Nation,12 governors have set aside over KSh 8 BILLION for their own offices.
Let that sink in.
Then you remember William Ruto is doing the same thing nationally,
Billions for State House. Billions for the Office of the President.
So tell me...
Who is copying whom?
We didn’t create devolution.
We created 47 small State Houses.
Same appetite. Same waste. Same impunity.
And the people?
High taxes. Poor services. Endless promises.
At this point, let’s be honest:
This system is bleeding the country dry.
Devolution is not the problem,
Greed without limits is.
Maybe it’s time for a referendum to:
Slash these bloated offices
Reduce governors’ powers
Restore accountability
Because what we have right now?
It’s not devolution. It’s decentralised looting.
Twelve Kenyan county governors have spent over Sh8 billion on their offices, about 60% of the total allocation.
Kitui Governor Julius Malombe led with Sh2.4 billion, three times his county’s agriculture budget.
Refusal to accept 2027 Poll Results will be a Criminal Offence" says the Interior CS. Kipchumba Murkomen, he thinks Kenyans are fools.
