Ruto obsession with state lodges and stadiums should be studied

[Murima Maestro🇰🇪 @MurimaMaestro]

Meru Governor Mutuma M’Ethingia has officially handed over 100 acres of Imenti Forest for total clearance to pave the way for the construction of a State Lodge for Ruto.

An additional 100 acres will be cleared to pave way for a Golf Course and an airstrip to help politicians easily fly to Nairobi and back.

Now what is this ?
What kind of taxation system is this?

Kenya’s mass housing drive is facing backlash as thousands of residents are being evicted to make way for new developments.

Critics say many displaced people are not being given proper alternative housing or fair compensation

Can the government provide a clear legal, economic, and policy justification for a system in which salaried Kenyans are mandatorily taxed through the Housing Levy to finance the construction of housing on public land ; land that is collectively owned by the people of Kenya only for those same citizens to later purchase the completed units at market prices through intermediaries and developers who assume limited financial risk and add little demonstrable public value?

If the capital originates from workers' compulsory contributions and the land is already a public asset held in trust for all citizens, on what basis is private profit extracted from a project substantially financed by the public? How does such an arrangement align with the principles of equity, public interest, and accountable stewardship of public resources? More fundamentally, what distinguishes this model from a system where citizens are effectively required to pay twice ; first through taxation to finance construction, and then again through purchase payments to acquire the resulting homes?

At the #EndFemicide march, I met many distraught mothers. This is Joyce Nduta.

48 days ago, on 15 April at 5pm, her 5-year-old autistic son, Luther Mwangi, went missing while playing at their home in Dandora Phase 4. She reported this to the police, but for close to 2 months now, they have had no answers for her.

Strangely, there was a poster going around on social media saying he had been found, but I can confirm from his mother that Luther is still missing.

Please amplify this message to help find Luther.

The High Court has ordered Kenya's government to disclose details of its deal with the US to set up an Ebola quarantine facility in Laikipia.

The court also wants health and safety reports made public.

"Why do Americans think that their lives are more important than the lives of Kenyans?"

My CNN report on the public opposition to an Ebola isolation facility for Americans in Kenya

[Dr. C @chao_mbogho]

I'll never get used to just how much contempt most Kenyan political leaders show Kenyans.

They spend more time defending things Kenyans are loudly against, than listening.

As if their positions have placed them above Kenyans' intellect & see the collective as inherently stupid.

@SpokespersonGoK The disease isn't spreading to Kenya. You are actively seeking it out and bringing it here. If any Kenya falls sick, this will be on your head.
