Congratulations, Sammy Kamau Ngotho and the DCP on this resounding victory in the Ol Kalou by-election.

Kenyans have witnessed the sheer siege on Ol Kalou, indeed, on the whole of Nyandarua County, by the National Police Service. Masked men were unleashed to instil fear on wananchi: young and old, men, women, and youth alike.

Bribery was deployed without shame, and on such a large scale that it can only be described as disgusting.

Intimidation became policy by the current regime, in their painful attempt to deter the will of the people.

Yet Ol Kalou stood firm. And their message to the people of Kenya is this: stand firm and resolute in the coming months.

This is not just a parliamentary seat won.

This is a message sent to Mr. Ruto, to his regime, to Kenya, and indeed to the world: WANTAM.

You cannot police away the will of a people.

You cannot bribe away their conscience.

You cannot mask your way into their hearts.

Ol Kalou has shown Kenya what is coming in 2027.

This evening, we joined fellow leaders and members of the diplomatic corps at a farewell cocktail in honour of Ambassadors H.E. Mr. Christian Fellner of Austria, H.E. Mr. Peter Maddens of Belgium, H.E. Mr. Savvas Vladimirou of Cyprus, H.E. Mr. Arnaud Suquet of France, and H.E. Mrs. Henriette Geiger of the European Union, as they mark the conclusion of their distinguished service in Kenya.

The occasion offered a meaningful moment to recognise their contribution to strengthening the bonds of friendship, cooperation, and mutual respect between Kenya and their respective countries and institutions.

We pay special tribute to H.E. Mrs. Henriette Geiger as she concludes her assignment, marking the culmination of an accomplished diplomatic career. Her service has left a lasting imprint on Kenya’s partnership with the European Union.

For me, this moment also carries a personal dimension. Having served as Minister for Foreign Affairs and as Vice President, I have had the honour of engaging closely with the diplomatic community and strengthening Kenya’s relations with many of the countries represented here today. I also share a special connection with my good friends from Cyprus, where I studied, further strengthened through my service as Honorary Consul General of Cyprus to Kenya since 2014.

These experiences reflect the enduring value of diplomacy and the strong people to people ties that continue to unite our nations.

As they take up new assignments and embrace new chapters, we extend our sincere appreciation for their service and wish them every success ahead, confident that the friendships and partnerships forged will continue to flourish.

Kenya is standing at a dangerous crossroads. The political intolerance that many hoped we had left behind after the Post Election Violence of 2007 is steadily returning to our national life.

What unfolded in Kisumu and Nyahururu this past Sunday was not an isolated disturbance. It was the latest manifestation of that dangerous trend, and it deserves the strongest condemnation for we know where it leads and we must never allow ourselves to return there.

[Kalonzo Musyoka @skmusyoka]

Violence in Kisumu, Nyahururu, and Ol Kalou are warning signs Kenya cannot ignore. What we are witnessing is a dangerous shift from democratic engagement to intimidation and impunity.

We call for immediate, impartial investigations, restraint from all leaders, and equal protection for every Kenyan.

Kiambu Town was lit!

We say thank you to the incredible people of Kiambu for the warm welcome, the energy, and the overwhelming support.

Together, we shall komboa Kenya.

This morning, I joined the faithful at ACK St. Andrews, Kiambu County for a moving church service, accompanied by Hon. JB Muturi, Senators Agnes Kavindu and Dan Maanzo, Hon. Stephen Mule, Hon. Jude Njomo, Hon. Irungu Nyakera, Hon. Ann Kanyi, Hon. Victor Swanya, Adv Ndegwa Njiru, Hon. Mary Kirika and Hon. Muriuki Ndwiga among other leaders.

Rev. David Kangara delivered a powerful sermon on stewardship, reminding us of our duty to serve with integrity, humility and accountability. Drawing from God’s words to Joshua, he encouraged us to be strong and courageous for whatever lies ahead, trusting that the Lord goes before us.

As Scripture reminds us on leadership, “Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.” Matthew 20:26. May we continue to lead with faith, purpose and a deep commitment to the people we serve.

This afternoon, I joined family, friends, and the people of Mwingi in Kitui County to lay to rest the late William Musili Munyambu Kalisasi, a man of honour, quiet strength, and unwavering commitment to his community. I was accompanied by Hon. Gideon Mulyungi, Hon. Irene Kasalu, among other leaders.

To the family, we draw comfort from the Word: "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble" (Psalm 46:1). May the Lord sustain you and grant you peace.

Even as we mourned, we were reminded of our duty to protect the dignity of every Kenyan and the integrity of our nation. The disturbing events unfolding in Ol Kalou must concern all who believe in justice and the rule of law.

To the IEBC: we have heard your signals, and we are watching closely. Kenyans are witnessing widespread bribery, intimidation, and blatant electoral malpractice, yet you appear to turn a blind eye. This cannot be allowed to stand. You carry a constitutional responsibility that demands courage, independence, and integrity.

Let it be clear: if you fail to deliver a free and fair by-election, we will have no basis to proceed with you towards the 2027 General Election. The confidence of the Kenyan people is not guaranteed. It must be earned through action, and protected at all costs.

Today, I had the honour of receiving grassroots leaders from Kajiado and Narok at Kithimani Farm. This engagement with leaders from the Maa community reflected the shared aspirations of our people and the enduring importance of unity in our national journey.

I was deeply humbled by the blessings offered by our revered elders, whose wisdom continues to guide our path. Their counsel is a powerful reminder that leadership is a sacred trust, grounded in service, integrity, and responsibility to future generations.

We held meaningful discussions on the challenges facing our communities and the need for inclusive development that leaves no one behind. As we move forward, let us remain guided by unity, mutual respect, and a steadfast commitment to building a stronger and more cohesive Kenya.

This evening at Langata Muslim Cemetery, Nairobi, Kenyans laid to rest a rare kind of conviction in Hon. Abubakar Zein.

I knew Zein as a profile in courage. A man who put country before career and conviction before convenience.

Zein built, quietly and without fanfare, some of the very foundations this country now stands on, including as an architect of the Constitution of Kenya 2010.

He served this nation and this region with a discipline that few could match, from his years in the East African Legislative Assembly to his later work leading my Presidential Secretariat.
Wherever he stood, Zein lifted the people around him, from the newest intern to the most senior official.

I extend my deepest condolences to his family - his wife, Kashi, and children Ibrahim, Zein, Alamin and Khadija - and to all who have been touched by his life. May they find strength in his legacy and comfort in the profound impact he made.

May Allah grant him mercy, forgive his shortcomings, and grant him Jannatul Firdaus.

Inna Lillahi wa Inna Ilayhi Raji'un.

Condolence Message on the Passing of Hon. Abubakar Zein: A Tribute to Honour, Courage, and Service

[Kalonzo Musyoka @skmusyoka]

Saba Saba is not just a date in our history. It is a living reminder of the courage it takes to demand freedom and defend democracy.

Thirty-six years after the heroes of 7th July 1990 stood up against dictatorship, a new generation of Kenyans has taken up that same struggle. Today’s youth are not lawbreakers, they are citizens exercising their constitutional right to speak, to assemble and to demand accountability.

Peaceful protest is not a crime. It is a right guaranteed under Article 37 of the Constitution of Kenya.

No amount of intimidation, arrests or violence will silence the voice of the people. The fight for justice, dignity and the rule of law continues.
