On #CitizenWeekend tonight we ask Health CS @HonAdenDuale why the Kenyan government wasn’t more forthcoming about the Ebola quarantine facility, how Kenya benefits and is the government ready to rethink the deal should the court’s restraining orders remain in place? Tune in from 9PM

White smoke

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

The Vatican fire brigade has put up the chimney stack, which will announce the election of the new Pope.

The Cardinals will gather in the Sistine Chapel on May 7 to begin the conclave to select the next Pope.

Twice a day, in the morning (except on May 7) and in the evening, smoke will emerge from the chimney - black if no Pope has been elected and white if at least 89 Cardinals have agreed on who will lead the Catholic Church.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

The College of Cardinals announces that all 133 Cardinal electors participating in the upcoming conclave have the right to vote for the new Pope.

The High Court has suspended the implementation of the new university funding model until a case we filed is heard and determined.
The case, filed on October 13, 2023, by KHRC, the Elimu Bora Working Group, Boaz Waruku, and the Students Caucus, argues that the funding model is discriminatory and locks thousands of students out of higher education.
However, the case faced delays. Justice Chacha Mwita noted today that it was stalled because the Attorney-General, Education CS, and the Kenya Universities and College Placement Service failed to file their submissions on time.
The case is coming up on December 16, 2024, to highlight submissions.

Have you seen the formal agreement between the President and Raila?

DP Gachagua: No. I trust the President. So trusting am I and my people from Mt. Kenya that in the whole of this matrix, we are the only people without a written agreement with Ruto
