When I was a boy, I fantasized and romanticised of the day when all the flies in the world would be EXTINCT. I HATED flies because they showed up during meals to reap where they had not sowed. Little did I know that my mind was nurturing my current opinion on Kenyan leaders.

MP Clive Gisairo says the KSh 3.8 billion Ngong Road to Naivasha Road overpass could have been funded by cutting the State House budget instead of borrowing from Spain.

Herman Manyora describes the overpass as "that thing" and says he is still not convinced it cost KSh 3.8 billion.

Gisairo also argues that if local contractors had built the project, it would have cost less.

He claims President Ruto's government is obsessed with billion shilling contracts and would not entertain any tender worth less than KSh 1 billion.

The lamentation in the opening cry by Ahmednasir Abdullahi, SC exemplifies the desperation and plight of Advocates and litigants before JuriPESA Judges. How do you as an Advocate or litigant get justice before a Judge like Moses Ado whose misbehavior and misconduct is this brazen and egregious?

🚨BREAKING: Kenyans could soon face higher fish prices after the court upheld a new levy introduced by the Ruto government through Hassan Joho

that requires fish farmers to pay a KSh 50,000 permit fee and a 5% levy on the value of landed fish, in addition to existing county charges, according to Business Daily.

Many people will ignore this because they don't keep fish.

That is exactly how harmful policies survive.

When the government makes it more expensive to produce food, those costs rarely remain with the producer. They often trickle down to ordinary consumers. Families already struggling with the cost of living could end up paying even more for fish.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: when you support a bad government, never assume you're immune. Today's burden falls on fish farmers. Tomorrow it could be the product you buy, the business you run, or your own paycheck.

Kenya's counties added 199 unauthorised bank accounts in just three months, bringing the total to 6,585.

Makueni opened the most new accounts, while Kitui has the highest total number of unauthorised accounts.

🚨 BREAKING: The Finance Committee led by Kimani Kuria & other UDA MPs has officially rejected a crucial proposal by the Controller of Budget (CoB) to vet, track, and approve withdrawals from the new Sovereign Wealth Fund.

Let this sink in. The CoB’s entire constitutional job is to make sure your tax money isn't misused before it leaves the account. Yet, MPs just voted to block her from having written authorization over these billions.

Look at exactly what they said NO to:

❌ No Written Sign-offs: They rejected letting the CoB approve withdrawals.

❌ Bypassing the Main Account: They refused to route the revenue through the Consolidated Fund first.

❌ Avoiding Full PFM Act Oversight: They blocked the full application of standard public finance accountability laws.

By bypassing Article 228 of the Constitution, this decision turns a national wealth fund into an unaccountable black box.

If the intentions for these billions are pure and there’s nothing to hide, why lock out the COB?

This is a terrifying precedent. What is the real motive behind locking out the nation's top financial watchdog?

Note: This has not been passed by the full Parliament yet. This is the time to speak up strongly; we should push for the CoB to have a meaningful say so that this national fund doesn’t become an accountability black box.

While Nakuru governor was busy launching her multibillion hotel, Kenyans of good will decided to visit Nakuru PGH hospital to gift patient basic supplies.

Unfortunately, they were turned away.

If you can't fund hospitals with basic supplies what hurts you when Kenyans come together?

This is just sad.

Keep in mind in this hospital new born babies sleep on carton boxes.

I am sad man.

It was horrifying for me to watch a video on @X showing the CS for Finance, @JohnMbadiN, displaying Kshs. 10,000,000 in cash as “donations” from the MP for Suna East, @JunetMohamed, and a similar amount, also in cash, from @WilliamsRuto.

As they did that, most pupils in rural Kenya are forced to learn under trees or in dilapidated structures; tens of thousands of children die of malaria and other preventable diseases; most county health facilities have no medicines, physicians and medical equipment; about 80% of the youth are jobless; and tens of millions of Kenyans are living under subhuman conditions

As I have stated elsewhere before, anyone who carries tens of millions of shillings in cash and/or in other denominations cannot claim that the money isn’t part of an organized and sophisticated money laundering scheme. This is particularly the case when the people displaying such colossal amounts of cash in public either occupy or used to occupy public offices.

There are anti-money laundering laws which prohibit the withdrawal and use of more than Kshs 1,000,000 in cash at any one time. This is aside from the fact that public officials should be required to explain the sources of such vast sums of money by the @EACCKenya.

My considered view is that by displaying such huge sums of cash in public, Ruto, Mbadi and Junet were publicly engaged in money laundering, grand corruption and proved that in Kenya, the Mafia is the government!

🚨BREAKING: Kenya could suffer a major setback after Rwanda moved to a Government-to-Government (G-to-G) fuel import model to lower fuel prices.

The biggest losers? Kenyan Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs).

This sounds complicated, but here's the simple version I have done for you. If you find it useful, please share it.

Imagine you own a supermarket that sells rice to your town and to a neighboring town. One day, that neighboring town signs a direct deal with the rice producer and stops buying from you.

Your supermarket doesn't close, but you lose one of your biggest customers. Sales fall, profits shrink, and you have to find new customers.

That's essentially what's happening.

For years, fuel destined for Rwanda would arrive through Mombasa, be handled by Kenyan OMCs, stored, transported, and then sold onward to Rwanda.

Kenya earned from fuel sales, storage, transport, and logistics, making it the regional fuel hub.

Now, Rwanda is bypassing Kenyan middlemen.

Instead of buying fuel through Kenyan companies, Rwanda is negotiating directly with international suppliers under a G-to-G arrangement, reportedly using more competitive financing terms and alternative routes such as Dar es Salaam.

The impact on Kenyan OMCs could include:

- Lower fuel sales as exports to Rwanda decline.
- Reduced profits despite high operating costs.
- Under-utilized storage facilities, trucks, and other infrastructure built for regional trade. etc

This isn't happening in isolation. Other countries in the region are also looking for ways to buy fuel directly instead of relying on Kenya.

If that trend continues, Kenya's position as East Africa's fuel hub could slowly weaken.

The bigger question is this: Is Kenya losing one of its biggest regional advantages, or will our fuel sector adapt before it's too late?

Usually, the Limitation of Actions Act is a headache of dates and statutes. But Hon Murunga just raised the bar by incorporating a brilliant graphic at para.25.

By visually mapping out the limitation period, he transformed statutory computation into an intuitive, impossible /1
