In the 2024 finance bill we had the motor vehicle circulation annual fee that we rejected. Could this have been sneaked back as annual inspection fees that is being imposed effective 1st July 2026?

A lot of Kenyans really love this country. We want Kenya to work for all of us. Most Kenyans are not interested in emmigrating. We want to develop our nation and have a functional country for our future generations!
We must start with sorting out our leadership and governance!!

In 2023, George Limiri and his wife Mekenze left the United States with their three children and settled in Meru, Kenya. They moved to give their kids a different environment and connect them with their African roots and extended family.

Since relocating, the couple built a luxurious bungalow on a two-acre plot in their village where they practice mixed farming. Mekenze said Kenya’s peaceful environment was a big appeal for raising their children.

Since moving, George and Mekenze have built two businesses: Limiri Travels, a tours and travel company, and Limiri Coffee. They recently launched their first batch of Limiri Farms Coffee, which is AA-grade Arabica from their farm in the Mount Kenya region.
The coffee is medium to dark roast and sells for Ksh 1,000 for 250g in Kenya, and Ksh 3,700 + Ksh 700 shipping for 450g in the US.

George and Mekenze met in Las Vegas in 2012 when George, then a record label owner, was looking for a vocalist and a mutual friend introduced them to Mekenze. What started as a work collaboration turned into a relationship as they spent long hours creating music together.

@bungomaduke Why demolish instead of repurpose, yet our taxes have been used to construct them?

[Dr. MaryJoy Kaimuri @MKaimuri]

The most effective strategy in prevention & control of infectious diseases is containment at the source/ site of outbreak. So yes, that containment unit should be in DRC not Kenya.

Kenyans have the right to ask the hard questions

In short, this is a very bad deal for Kenya!!

[Dr. MaryJoy Kaimuri @MKaimuri]

We have had numerous school fires, investigations done, policies and safety guidelines developed.

Do we learn anything from all these tragedies?

We can't continue like this.

My heart breaks for every parent that lost a child this morning 😭

[Dr. MaryJoy Kaimuri @MKaimuri]

We must have a conversation on who is abducting all these children. This is a very serious matter. We can't continue keeping quite

In the mean time, be very observant and care for all children that you come across.

[Dr. MaryJoy Kaimuri @MKaimuri]

By the way, does the national cohesion commission still operational?

Their silence is well noted!

[Dr. MaryJoy Kaimuri @MKaimuri]

Merchants of negative ethnicity have been activated. Kenyans stay woke!!

Blessed Sunday

@kamauwaruhiu Really now🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Willis Evans Otieno @otienowill]

It is untenable to shoulder a 1.5% housing levy, 2.75% SHIF deduction, 6% NSSF contribution, and a staggering 30-45% PAYE , only to still grapple with exorbitant school fees, skyrocketing rent, punitive fuel prices, and endless medical fundraisers because SHIF remains woefully inadequate.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

The William Ruto govt promised that the new university funding model would fix everything.

Instead, it’s quietly pulling the rug from under students by reducing allocations.

2023 → 100% funding (KSh 29.5B) was paid
2024 → 64%
2025 → 57%
And now students are logging into portals only to find fee balances of over KSh 100,000.
So what changed?

Under the old model, funding was predictable.
Under this “new model,” support can be reduced anytime.

That’s the real story.

This isn’t a mistake.
It’s a system where the govt decides how much you “deserve”, then cuts it.
And students are the ones paying the price.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

Imagine a government agency doing what would land you in trouble instantly.

The Auditor-General has exposed what’s happening at NCIC, and it's troubling.

They were allocated ~KSh 20M for travel,
but spent over KSh 132M on travel, more than 5× the budget.
Then it gets worse.

They went to a local bank and ran an unauthorized overdraft (basically a “Fuliza”) of KSh 118M, something that is illegal for a public institution without National Treasury approval.

That decision alone cost taxpayers over KSh 822,000 in interest.

And it doesn’t end there.

The audit shows missing supporting records for that travel that could explain the 132 million spent.

The Auditor-General concluded management was in breach of the law.

This is happening at a public institution chaired by Rev. Samuel Kobia. A religious leader who you would expect would be following the word of God and protect Kenyans from Corruption and looting.

If this doesn’t trigger accountability, what will?

Where is Parliament? Where is EACC? Where is the follow-up? Both are silent.

Kenyans are taxed every day. Then a few misuse the money.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

Gladys Shollei is pushing a dangerous amendment, and Kenyans should pay attention.

Yesterday, during a debate on the Public Participation Bill, she proposed removing a key safeguard: the requirement to publish public participation outcomes.

Right now, Section 12(2) requires that once public participation is done, the results be made public, for example, on a website, so citizens can see what Kenyans actually said.

Her proposal? Remove it completely or
Keep that information private.
If you want it, you must apply to the same authority that collected it.

Let me be honest, we already know how this ends.

We have been requesting NHIF, Housing levy, and capitation data for over 6 months. Letters sent to MOH and MOE. No response. Total silence. We are now heading to court soon.

Now imagine this:

A bad bill is rejected by Kenyans during public participation.
The authority then claims: “Kenyans supported it.”

How do you verify?
You write to them, and they ignore you.
That’s the trap.

This amendment would legalize secrecy and make it impossible to hold the government accountable.
Public participation without transparency is just a rubber stamp.

MPs must reject this amendment.

Kenyans deserve a public portal where participation outcomes are visible, verifiable, and permanent.

Enough hiding.

Article 35 on access to information is becoming ceremonial, and soon, we will prove that in court.

[Eng. Karis | MSC | @Briankariu]

When oil was at historic lows of $67 last year, they refused to lower the prices and pass on the savings to us.

Now, it's heading to $120 a barrel. And they are already asking us to swallow the pain through higher prices.

Kazi yetu ni kumeza uchungu, na wao wakule mautamu.

[Dr. MaryJoy Kaimuri @MKaimuri]

Our government truly cares for us. When international fuel prices were at an all time low, we were told G to G kosokoso. But now we have to pay the price.
Brace Kenyans brace!!

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

Kenya is about to lose KSh 3.6 BILLION, not because of war, not because of crisis, but because of sheer government stupidity.

The State Department cleared Oryx Energies to import 60,000MT of fuel outside the G-to-G deal according to Citizen Tv.

Then suddenly, they changed their mind.
The fuel was already on the high seas.

Now the company wants KSh 3.6 BILLION from Kenyans for losses.

Think about that for a moment.

Decisions made recklessly.
Reversed carelessly.

And YOU & I are the one paying for it.
How do you greenlight such a deal, then cancel when it’s too late?

This is not incompetence anymore.
This is economic sabotage.

We are being punished for mistakes they didn’t make.
