HISTORIC VICTORY. HIGH COURT DECLARES THERE IS NO TIME LIMIT ON LAND JUSTICE IN KENYA.
In my petition, Okiya Omtatah Okoiti v Attorney General & Others, the High Court has declared unconstitutional the provisions of the National Land Commission Act that imposed time limits on the Commission’s constitutional mandate to review grants of public land and investigate historical land injustices.
The Court affirmed a simple but powerful principle. Parliament cannot diminish or extinguish powers that the Constitution has vested in an independent constitutional commission. Justice delayed cannot become justice denied through legislative deadlines.
This judgment restores hope to thousands of Kenyans and communities who were locked out of justice by arbitrary statutory time bars. The constitutional path to redress for historical land injustices remains open.
The Constitution has prevailed. Land justice has no expiry date.

Let’s address the elephant in the room because I feel like many people don’t want to have this conversation😳
So the plan is to vote for Sifuna simply because he can help get Ruto out? As long as Ruto is gone, then we’re good? Haven’t we been here before? Isn’t that exactly how Ruto benefited from the anger against Uhuru&Raila ?
And before that, wasn’t Uhuru’s victory also driven in part by a wave of sympathy over the ICC cases and the feeling among many supporters that it was time to stand with him and push back against those they believed were targeting him? Look at how Uhuru’s administration left this country? Haven’t we already seen where voting out of anger or emotion, instead of demanding better leadership, leaves this country?
The next election cannot just be about who is most likely to defeat Ruto. It has to be about who has a clear plan to deal with corruption, protect the Constitution, end abductions and extrajudicial killings, fix our broken healthcare system, reform education, create jobs, reduce the cost of living, tackle public debt, restore independent institutions and ensure there is real accountability in government.
I understand the thinking. The common enemy is Ruto, and the enemy of my enemy quickly becomes a friend. But I refuse to believe that after everything this country has been through, Kenyans are ready to settle for people with serious questions hanging over them simply because they are the fastest route to removing one man from power. A perfect example, Aisha Jumwa😂
We cannot keep voting against someone. At some point, we have to start voting for something. Otherwise, we’ll keep changing faces while the system that keeps failing Kenyans remains exactly the same.
Re: De La Rue
Hiyo maneno ya sale of De la rue, one of the things they do apart from printing currency is printing government security documents Eg ballot papers. Wicknell has a company called Ren-form that also does that. Connected or coincidence?
@DavidNdii Kenya is 800 times bigger than Singapore, 58 million hectares compared to Singapore's compact 73,600 hectares. Explain to Kenyans the need for vertical slums.
