It’s exactly five years today since the Kianjokoma brothers’ ruthless killing after arrest by police officers.
Justice is yet to be done. The family is crying out. Justice delayed is justice denied.
On behalf of @VOCALAfrica_ & Halima Ngache @Halimaprinces we applaud Hon. Muteti’s ruling @Kenyajudiciary where he directed Halima Ngache’s @Halimaprinces gadgets be released,after faulting the orders from the trial court causing her illegal detention & unwarranted search warrant
As @VOCALAfrica_, we have today filed contempt of court proceedings against @HonWetangula for defying court orders.
Last week, the court issued conservatory orders for both speakers to desist from engaging in active politics.
However, despite the court order, @HonWetangula still went ahead and participated in several political activities.
If court orders from @Kenyajudiciary can be ignored by those entrusted to uphold the Constitution, what message does that send to every Kenyan? The rule of law must prevail. @HonWetangula the wheels of justice grind slowly, but it will catch up.
Law and politics must remain distinct! Today, VOCAL Africa filed a milestone petition at the Milimani Law Courts against National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula and Senate Speaker Amason Kingi.
Our petition is clear: The Speakers of our two Houses of Parliament must remain neutral and cannot engage in active politics while in office.
We are entering the courts to protect the Constitution and demand absolute accountability.
So close to watching the biggest upset of the World Cup in modern times, or maybe ever, in Miami tonight.
Props to Cape Verde. What a performance. What a second goal.
This is football.

This is outrageous. How can you claim to have no involvement in abductions while police officers are seen arresting human rights defenders on live television?
If they were indeed arrested, which police stations were they booked into? The public deserves clear answers. @ray_omollo
Besigye, Lutale reject alternative lawyers, insist on Karua and Lukwago
They argue that any attempt to compel them to accept alternative lawyers violates their constitutional right to a fair trial.
In a letter dated July 1, 2026, addressed to Criminal Division judge Emmanuel Baguma from Luzira Government Prison, the two accused say they remain committed to being represented by Karua, Lukwago and any other lawyers of their choosing, despite the fact that both are currently unavailable.

27 years old Charles Mangaru Mwangi was shot and killed yesterday Monday 1st June 2026 as Laikipia residents took to the streets to protest the proposed Ebola Quarantine Centre for US nationals.
Charles was shot in the chest/shoulder area and died on the spot. His body is lying at the Nanyuki Teaching and Referral Hospital awaiting postmortem.
Another Death Inside A Police Station!
24 years old Brian Njung’e, a student at Kiambu National Polytechnic, was arrested yesterday Thursday 21st May morning in Kirigiti area of Kiambu town and booked at Kiambu Police Station.
Brian called his mother from the police station around 9am and they spoke, where Brian informed the mother of his arrest.
The family, including the mother, rushed to the police station to follow up. They got there just before noon and requested to see Brian but were asked to wait.
They were kept waiting until around 2pm when they were called in and informed that Brian had allegedly committed suicide in the cells.
Police claim Brian was alone in the cells as other cellmates had been taken to court. The family is crying foul and wants justice arguing that the police story doesn’t add up.
Fuel is the backbone of movement, trade and access to services which keeps our economy active and fluid. When its price spikes, the effect is immediate. Transport costs rise. Food prices follow. Small businesses struggle to stay afloat. Essential services become harder to access.
For ordinary Kenyans, this will be the daily reality of choosing between mobility, food and basic needs.
The ongoing strike by the motorists’ association is a warning signal of the fragility of our economic stability amid high fuel costs. The nationwide transport strike is likely to disrupt supply chains, stall economic activity and paralyse urban and rural mobility alike.
Workers are unable to reach their jobs. Goods will fail to reach markets. Emergency and essential services would face delays.
The combined effect of high fuel prices and a transport shutdown risks pushing already strained households and businesses to the brink. This is how economic pressure quickly becomes a social crisis.
I urge the Government to engage urgently and meaningfully with stakeholders in the transport and energy sectors. We need sustainable, transparent and accountable interventions that stabilise fuel prices and protect livelihoods.
Failure to act will expose millions of Kenyans to deepening economic hardship and reduced access to essential services.
#MatatuStrike
The ongoing Matatu strike that has paralysed public transport this morning and affected all sectors of the economy is testament of the delicate nature of fuel prices and changes thereto.
The government must take all measures necessary to alleviate the deleterious impact of the sharp increase in fuel prices, including the necessary action to have the prices come down.
The Law Society of Kenya through its Public Interest Litigation Committee and the Lawyer-Police Committee is monitoring the situation as it unravels following the matatu strike, and will offer the necessary legal support in case of any eventualities today and the days to follow.

We have today filed a petition as @VOCALAfrica_ to challenge the recent recruitment by KPA. We have argued that the process flouted laid down procedures.
We are asking the court to declare the entire exercise null and void and to order that a fresh recruitment exercise be undertaken.

Brian Olang, Human Rights Lawyer: Leaders should deliver results for all Kenyans - gender should not be a limiting factor. Women-led organizations consistently perform better. For too long, women have confined themselves to small groups; it’s time to step forward, take their place in boardrooms, and lead with authority and vision.

@otienowill We dearly need an honest conversation about Bail and Bond.
The PreTrial Detention conversation is the highest constitutional breach of our day ranking almost at par with abuse of office and graft
