@NyakundiReport This is politically motivated and/or perhaps a fightback from employee cartels in the Embassy. There is no real actionable complaint in all this. People work late, people are called out at work. If a staff member is repeatedly told they are incompetent, highly likely they are.

Haaaalaaaaand!!!

The Income Tax Act (Amendment) Bill 2026 is also out!

The change is on Capital Gains Tax with regard to exemption of transfer of property in the case of internal reorganisation.

I am struggling with this from an optics standpoint:

1. Remember Finance Act 2025 started this process by defining a "company". Now the Income Tax (Amendment) Bill 2026 effectively furthers this process. The clean up is warranted, it's the timing that doesn't make sense
2. Why couldn't this just wait for Finance Bill 2026? Finance Bill 2026 is just two weeks out anyway? What's the urgency?
3. Shouldn't this Bill have granted the PAYE relief for Kes 50k & below earners? Weren't we just told last week that there was no point in having an Income Tax Amendment Bill just before Finance Bill? Why is that provision missing in this Bill

Britam Holdings announces proposed reduction in share premium by Kes 5.88 billion to Kes 7.36 billion.

The move seeks to enable payment of dividends since the company is not able to pay dividends if the accumulated losses/ retained earnings are negative despite the company making profits.

Please have someone from your claims team reach out to me ASAP and progress my claim. Happy to share details on DM.

Hi @SanlamAllianzKe

It is my first time using your motor vehicle insurance service and I am extremely disappointed in your turnaround time and claim processing. I signed the discharge voucher on my claim on 14 Nov and a month later I am yet to receive 1/3)

[Samuel B. Gekara @SamGBill]

a shilling for the repairs. The car is now repaired and I owe significant amounts to the garage. Your claims processing team have been taking my agent and myself in circles. @Cofek_Kenya @ira_kenya .2/3

[Samuel B. Gekara @SamGBill]

This team is making me believe that our suffering days are over. Hope we can keep it consistent #MUFC

If by chance United are able to do this after Sesko, Mbeumo and Cunha I want to declare publicly that I am ready once again to immerse myself deeply into the delusion that we are winning the league and I am prepared for any heartbreak that could come thereafter

This is just a policy guideline and not a law. I believe this has to be legislated or passed as subsidiary legislation that requires public participation.
