Give up yourself, and you'll find your real self. Lose your life and you'll save it. Submit to death, death of your ambitions and favourite wishes everyday and death of your whole body in the end submit with every fibre of your being, and you will find eternal life.

Government says in 2022, our maize harvest was 34 million bags … And we didn’t have shortage!

Government says our maize production last year was 70m! 70m bags… more than double 2022 production. Our population has not doubled!

So, why are we experiencing great shortage? Did we transport our maize to Zambia then re-importing it?

I don’t understand some things. Maybe Government Experts can explain to me.

President William Ruto, after four years in power, has made 455 promises, but only 12 of them have been fulfilled.

This means only 2.6% of his promises have been fulfilled

World Bank urges Kenya to stop raising taxes and focus on spending public money more efficiently.

This comes after widespread opposition forced the government to drop several proposed tax increases in the Finance Bill 2026.

Kenya has introduced a new 25% tax on software subscriptions.

One of the principles of a good tax system is simplicity.

Taxes should be easy to understand. Easy to comply with. And inexpensive to administer.

Finance Act 2026 has introduced new rules for software subscriptions.

• The Act now classifies payments for software licences and software subscriptions as royalties.

- As a result, every time you pay an overseas software company, you are now required to withhold 20% tax and remit it to KRA.

- Then pay the software company the remaining 80%.

For example.

Suppose you pay Google, Amazon or Microsoft USD 1,000 every year for software subscriptions.

The law says:
• Confiscate 20%, USD 200.
• Remit it to KRA.

Then pay the software company USD 800.

There is only one problem, however.
- Software subscriptions are paid either in full or not at all.

Google does not care that you have complied with the Kenyan tax laws. You either pay them 1,000 USD or go home.

So what happens to continue using the software and keep KRA happy?

- You pay Google their full USD 1,000.

In doing so, KRA treats the USD 1,000 as the net amount after withholding tax. That means the original invoice is deemed to have been USD 1,250. How?

Ulikua unaangalia mwalimu na ruler ukiuliza hesabu ya cross multiplication itakusaidia aje maishani. Ona Sasa.

If USD 1,000 = 80%,
Then 100% = USD 1,250.

The withholding tax therefore becomes USD 250.

Meaning:
• Google gets their full USD 1,000.
• Then you go back to your pocket to pay KRA USD 250.

Total software cost = USD 1,250.

In effect, the law has quietly introduced a 25% tax on many software subscriptions.

Even if a small taxpayer genuinely wanted to comply, how exactly are they supposed to comply when the giant software company insists on being paid in full?

This is the new law. Adjust accordingly.

Housing Levy Locked Forever:

A bold fiscal manoeuvre could lock the controversial housing levy into Kenyan payslips for generations.

Government plans to use the housing levy as loan security to borrow Sh100 billion.

Yesterday in Parliament, the Cabinet Secretary for Health, Aden Duale, failed to assure the country that the government’s decision‑making on the Ebola question is within the law and fully under control. The Constitution demands both legality and respect for court orders and public participation.

Listening to him, the message is clear, the court will have its say but the executive will enforce their way.

When a High Court has already issued conservatory orders suspending an Ebola‑related facility, any suggestion that the Executive can press on regardless converts being within the law into a slogan to justify disobedience. Constitutional obedience is not optional and it is not subject to administrative convenience.

Kenyans are entitled to clear, honest answers. Who authorised these arrangements, on what legal basis and with what safeguards for public health and sovereignty? Dismissing concerns as mere alarm while sidestepping these questions undermines public trust in both the Ministry of Health and Parliament’s oversight role.

The right to health under Article 43 must be read together with Articles 10, 94, 95 and 165 on constitutionalism, public participation and the authority of the courts. You cannot promote public health by eroding the very legal framework that protects Kenyans from arbitrary executive action.

What Julians has submitted is extremely critical. Extremely.

Right now:
• You partly tell KRA what you earned
• You tell KRA what tax you owe

If finance Bill 2026 passes,

It is KRA that will strictly tell YOU:
• What you earned
• What tax you owe

How?
• By pulling data from anywhere
• eTIMS, banks, third parties, govt ministries integrations, etc

If KRA sends you a tax bill. And it is insane. And you disagree. Who must prove it is wrong?

The bill says it is you.

But here is the danger. KRA is NOT required to tell you:
• Where they got the data from
• Or how they arrived at the figures

So you are left there. Trying to fight numbers you cannot see.

And some of those numbers could be system errors.

Now ask yourself,
- How do you disprove something you don’t even understand? Are you an angel?

What Julians is saying is simple.

If KRA wants to tax you using their data, KRA must prove to you and the courts that that data is:
• Accurate
• Reliable &
• Defensible

Is that a fair argument?
Or should taxpayers just fight ghosts?
