PRESS STATEMENT BY SENATOR OKIYA OMTATAH ON THE PUBLIC DEBT CASE RULING

Fellow Kenyans,

Today, the High Court delivered an important ruling in our public debt case.

The Court upheld the @IMFNews claim of diplomatic immunity and struck it out of this petition. While we respect the Court’s decision, accountability for Kenya’s debt burden cannot end there.
We are preparing a separate legal challenge to the Bretton Woods Agreements Act, 1963, against the Constitution of Kenya 2010 to ensure all actors involved in Kenya’s debt processes are subjected to proper scrutiny.

Most importantly, the Court rejected attempts by the Attorney General and other respondents to have this case dismissed. The judges ruled that our petition will proceed to a full hearing on its merits.

The Court also dismissed applications by the former Auditor General, former Controller of Budget, the current Auditor General, and the current Controller of Budget seeking to shield themselves from these proceedings.

This is a significant victory for transparency, accountability, and the Kenyan people.

We will amend our petition as directed by the Court and return on 22nd July 2026. Our mission remains unchanged: to establish how Kenya accumulated trillions in public debt, how the funds were utilized , whether the public benefited and whether the law was followed at every stage.

This case is about protecting the future of our nation and the interests of every Kenyan taxpayer.
We remain focused, determined, and committed to seeing it through.

God Bless Kenya.

Willingly accepting to import Ebola into your country has got to be most treasonous act ever done to a people by their leader in any country. This greed is too much.

[Dr. Miguna Miguna @MigunaMiguna]

EBOLA is the most lethal contagious disease in the world. It has no treatment or vaccination.

Bringing Americans who are exposed to EBOLA to Kenya for whatever reasons is an act of HIGH TREASON as it exposes EVERYONE to extinction.

It must be opposed, resisted and overturned. No Ifs or Buts.

The prostitute country. No standards, no principles, no vision. In a few weeks, those of us who need to travel will face ebola-based restrictions from the very people who set it up here. The intellectual collapse of Kenya is probably the most painful thing in my lifetime

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

Breaking: Today, as I promised, I reveal what could be one of the biggest fraud scandals inside the State Department for Agriculture.

Ksh 275 MILLION withdrawn in 8 days.
No supporting documents.
And nobody has been arrested.

It begins here. The State Department had an account in a famous commercial bank. They had been using it for a long but for some reason stopped using it in 2024. The account holding over Ksh 300M was then declared DORMANT on 26 Dec 2024.

But just days later, something disturbing happened:

- Ksh 92.5M withdrawn on Jan 2
- Ksh 92.5M withdrawn on Jan 7
- Ksh 90M withdrawn on Jan 10

Total: Ksh 275 MILLION gone in only 8 days.
From a dormant account.

Read that again.

My sources say the money was allegedly moved into private accounts. They sent me more documents, but this got bad fast.

I checked the Auditor General’s findings.
The figures reportedly match.

Even worse?
When auditors demanded documents supporting the withdrawals, they were not provided.

The Auditor General even flagged it as possible fraud.
This is the same script, similar to what I noticed in NHIF that we are following now.

This is why some of us are angry.
Farmers are struggling.
Food prices are rising.
Taxes keep increasing.

Yet somewhere inside government, hundreds of millions allegedly disappear in silence.

You delay a loan repayment by one day, and the bank reacts immediately.
But Ksh 275 million can allegedly move from a dormant account, and nobody is arrested.

How?

The CS for Agriculture is Mutahi Kagwe.
EACC knows.
DCI knows.
People inside the government know.
But everyone is silent.

And from what I’m hearing, this may only be the tip of the iceberg.

More revelations soon. More, even bigger. I will share more documents later today. follow - sholla ard

Unafanya biashara and pay the required corporate tax.
Alafu una lipa dividends to the owners of capital
KRA inaona bado umebakisha pesa
Wanataka ku tax tena
Sasa wakichukua yote utapata pesa ya ku expand business wapi na watatoa future taxes wapi?
Si watunyonge baas!

[Ivar The Boneless @roomthinker]

Tax experts - correct me if I am wrong, but this is what I understand KRA’s proposal in the finance bill 2026 to be.

Assume I made revenue of 100,000

All my costs are 80,000.

My net profit is this 20,000.

KRA at present expects 30% of this as corporate tax.

Leaving me with 14,000.

I can pull that out as dividends, at which point KRA will tax me.

Or, I can plough it back into the business.

KRA’s proposal is to TAX at MINIMUM 60% of this, the ceiling being at the discretion of the commissioner general.

This makes absolutely NO SENSE to me.

Not only are you punishing reinvestment, you are hitting hard new businesses that are the most likely to reinvest their profits, not to mention businesses that are growing organically.

In what universe is this a rational policy move?

[DismasWaTabu @DismasWaTabu]

Here is an observation that should make every Kenyan uncomfortable.

The united opposition is united about everything except the things that actually matter.

Nobody is tabling an impeachment motion against the government of the day. Nobody is seriously talking about the odious debt bleeding this country dry. Nobody is pushing the agenda that would actually change the lives of ordinary Kenyans. And when you look carefully at why, the answer becomes very clear.

The opposition and the government are not enemies. They are competitors for the same prize. Power. And power in Kenya comes with the same perks regardless of which side you sit on. The corruption, the impunity, the debt, the systems that protect the elite at the expense of everyone else that is not what they are fighting against. That is what they are fighting over.

It is the glue that binds them all.

This is why the country needs someone who has never sat at that table. Someone who does not owe the system anything because the system never gave them anything. Maraga represents that option. A man who has already demonstrated he will rule against power when the law demands it.

But here is the hard truth.

Before you say he lacks numbers: you are the number. Before you say the media ignores him: you are the media. Every share, every conversation, every vote is infrastructure for the change you claim to want.

Kenya has fumbled this moment before by waiting for a perfect saviour.

Maraga is not perfect. No one is.

But the alternative is another cycle of the same people rotating the same power while you watch from the same place.

The choice, as always, is yours.

And so is the consequence.

Dismas wa Tabu. Dreaming in installments. Billed in full.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

What happened in Kwale should concern every Kenyan.

Aaron Cheruiyot told residents that Ruto brought development to Kinango because they are in government.

He also said Rigathi was Deputy President, but “did not even build a toilet” there.

And people cheered.

But why did nobody ask the question that matters:

Does the Office of the Deputy President even receive a development budget to build projects across Kenya?

Then explain this to me:

If development has truly reached people, why are some children still studying under trees? Why are some families still struggling with poor infrastructure and unsafe water?

This is how propaganda works.

People with real problems are given slogans instead of answers. answers, not slogans. The people aren't being told we will drill water for you or so , they are being told Gachagua this that and given some monies.

[Sholla Ard 🇰🇪 @sholard_mancity]

The internet never forgets. Watch this 2021 video carefully. This is Moses Wetang'ula, furious at Uhuru Kenyatta because fuel had reached KSh135. Watch how he asks why fuel was cheaper in Uganda than in Kenya. Today, fuel is at KSh242. What changed?

[New Direction AFRICA @Its_ereko]

Africa has the world's richest resources but the hungriest citizens.

We mine cobalt, gold, oil, uranium, and lithium. We grow cocoa, coffee, and cotton. Yet our people starve. Our children miss school. Our clinics have no medicine.

The problem is not scarcity. The problem is theft. Foreign corporations extract for pennies. Corrupt leaders sell us out for power. Western powers bomb, sanction, and coup anyone who tries to keep wealth at home.

We don't need aid. We need justice. We need to refine our own resources. We need to trade on our own terms. We need leaders who fear us, not London, Paris, or Washington.

Until then, Africa will remain the world's richest poor continent. And that is by design.

[Dr. Miguna Miguna @MigunaMiguna]

Stop saying “Africa’s worst problem is poverty and/or tribalism.”

Africa is NOT poor.

Africa is the richest continent in the world.

It’s the cradle of human life and civilization.

Africa is the most beautiful continent—architecturally, geographically, culturally, linguistically and aesthetically.

It has the best weather and the best soils for agriculture.

It has the largest deposits of natural resources such as gold, diamonds, and rare earths.

Africa’s poverty emanate from Europe, USA, UK, Israel, their intelligence agencies and their local (African) mascots who have helped them loot Africa’s wealth, use violence, engineered conflicts, religion, propaganda and distortions as weapons of control, domination, destabilization, and exploitation.

Asia, Europe, UK and the Americas are as ethnically diverse as Africa.

Ethnic diversity is and ought to be a source of strength rather than weakness.

Tribalism in Africa was engineered by Europeans, Americans and Zionists after Europe partitioned Africa, divided ethnic communities, created artificial rivalries, weaknesses, shortages and conflicts over resources and political power, and manipulated the situation to perpetuate their dominance.

What Africa lacks is liberation from the ills and enemies identified above and the attainment of political and economic unity under a revolutionary order.

[Citizen TV Kenya @citizentvkenya]

Jimi Wanjigi: We got here because of theft. During Moi’s time, out of every 100 shillings, 30 shillings was going to the payment of debt. So he had 70 shillings to run the government, do development, and pay salaries. Kibaki, by the time he handed over to Uhuru, of his 1 trillion and 2 trillion of debt, 18 shillings was going to debt payment. He had 72 shillings that was actively running government operations, which is why people say Kibaki’s budget was debt-free. When Uhuru handed over to Ruto, 65 shillings was going to debt payments. The government started borrowing for recurrent expenditure, no more for development and that is illegal in our laws. Now, where we are this year, 92 shillings of every 100 is going to the payment of debt. We are dying #CitizenSundayLive

KTN pens down another open letter to the President

"Before you left quietly last night, you left behind a nation grappling with the highest oil pump prize in Kenya's history. You offered no explanation, no statement. You literally buried uour head in the sand, ignoring every cry from your hustlers"

[DismasWaTabu @DismasWaTabu]

Good evening patriots. Here is your evening dose of anger and a call for your urgency in pushing for accountability. Your hard-earned tax is being stolen in broad day-light.

Thousands of Kenyans living near wildlife reserves lose everything every year. Crops destroyed overnight. Livestock wiped out. Family members killed or seriously injured by elephants, lions and buffalo. These are not rich people. These are farmers and herders who wake up one morning and find that the government's wildlife has undone everything they worked for.

The government acknowledged this. Budgeted for it. Set aside Sh800 million to compensate these victims.

Then spent Sh300 million of that same money hiring a consultant to build a digital system to manage the compensation.

They spent Sh300 million to process Sh500 million. More than a third of the victims' money went to a middleman before a single shilling reached a single family.

When MPs asked what exactly cost Sh300 million, nobody could explain. The documents were not there. The justification was not there. Just a completed contract and a consultant who is no longer in the room.

This is what makes it so infuriating. This is not corruption hiding in the shadows. It is in the budget. It has a line item. It was approved, signed, and processed through the correct channels in broad daylight.

The family whose father was killed by an elephant is still following up their claim.

The consultant whose only predator was the public purse walked away with Sh300 million.

That is Kenya's human wildlife conflict in its truest form. Except in this version, the most dangerous animal is the one wearing a suit.

[Paul Muite SC @Paul_Muite]

Who will remind him of this??

[New Direction AFRICA @Its_ereko]

You have stated the truth that too many Africans are afraid to say out loud. It is not just about one refinery. It is about the entire economic system designed to keep Africa poor and dependent.

Let me add some facts to support what you said.

The Dangote Refinery is a 650,000 barrel per day facility. It is the largest single train refinery in the world. When fully operational, it can meet 100% of Nigeria's refined fuel needs and still have excess for export. That means Nigeria would stop importing fuel. Stop paying foreign currencies for refined products. Stop being a captive market for European and American refiners.

That is exactly why powerful groups do not want it to succeed.

For decades, Western oil companies have extracted crude from Africa at rock bottom prices. Then they shipped that crude to Europe, refined it, and sold it back to African countries at massive markups. African nations were essentially paying Western companies to take their own oil, process it, and return it for five times the price. That is not trade. That is exploitation.

The Dangote Refinery breaks that cycle. Africa keeps its crude. Africa refines its crude. Africa sells refined products to itself and to neighboring countries. The profit stays in Africa. The jobs stay in Africa. The control stays in Africa.

Western powers, European refiners, and global oil traders have every incentive to see this refinery fail. They have used every tool. Regulatory delays. Pipeline sabotage. Financing obstacles. Price manipulation. Media campaigns questioning the project's viability. Anything to slow it down or stop it completely.

You said they do not want Africa to strive and develop. That is correct. They want Africa to remain the quarry at the bottom of the global economy. Digging rocks. Pumping oil. Growing crops. Sending everything raw to be processed elsewhere. Then buying back finished goods at inflated prices. That is the colonial model. It never ended. It just changed names.

But here is the good news. It is up to us. Dangote proved it is possible. African governments can build more refineries. More processing plants. More factories that turn raw materials into finished goods. That is not charity. That is strategy. That is sovereignty.

We cannot just whine about it. You are right. We have to take matters into our own hands. Build our own. Finance our own. Protect our own. Refuse to sell our resources for pennies while buying back the same resources for dollars.

The powerful groups will fight back. They always do. But they are not invincible. They are just used to winning because no one challenged them. Africa is challenging now. Let them be uncomfortable. It is long overdue.
