BREAKING: If this is what happens to one of Kenya's most high-profile criminal cases, what hope is there for ordinary victims?
The Shanzu Court has dismissed the sawdormiy and sexual assault case that had been filed by Bruce and the State against Mombasa County officials, citing a lack of sufficient evidence.
This comes despite the availability of video footage and medical evidence.
For those who have forgotten the case, I've attached a video below explaining everything.
This ruling will leave many Kenyans questioning how serious criminal cases are investigated and prosecuted.
Time and again, cases that begin with explosive allegations end up collapsing in court, raising fresh concerns about investigations, evidence handling, and prosecution. The ODPP and police are letting Kenyans down.
For me, this is another painful reminder of why so many people have lost confidence in parts of Kenya's criminal justice system.
Sad. Disturbing. And deeply frustrating.
If we depend solely on mainstream media to tell us what matters, we will remain perpetually distracted while the country is picked clean. Just like the current ‘beef’ btwn WSR and Gideon.
We must be intentional & support independent alternative media, and keep our eyes firmly on the ball. Let them chase their clicks. We will continue to chase justice and accountability in the corridors of the courts and on the streets. Sauti ya mwananchi haitazimwa. Viva ✊🏾
PRESS STATEMENT BY SENATOR OKIYA OMTATAH ON THE PUBLIC DEBT CASE RULING
Fellow Kenyans,
Today, the High Court delivered an important ruling in our public debt case.
The Court upheld the @IMFNews claim of diplomatic immunity and struck it out of this petition. While we respect the Court’s decision, accountability for Kenya’s debt burden cannot end there.
We are preparing a separate legal challenge to the Bretton Woods Agreements Act, 1963, against the Constitution of Kenya 2010 to ensure all actors involved in Kenya’s debt processes are subjected to proper scrutiny.
Most importantly, the Court rejected attempts by the Attorney General and other respondents to have this case dismissed. The judges ruled that our petition will proceed to a full hearing on its merits.
The Court also dismissed applications by the former Auditor General, former Controller of Budget, the current Auditor General, and the current Controller of Budget seeking to shield themselves from these proceedings.
This is a significant victory for transparency, accountability, and the Kenyan people.
We will amend our petition as directed by the Court and return on 22nd July 2026. Our mission remains unchanged: to establish how Kenya accumulated trillions in public debt, how the funds were utilized , whether the public benefited and whether the law was followed at every stage.
This case is about protecting the future of our nation and the interests of every Kenyan taxpayer.
We remain focused, determined, and committed to seeing it through.
God Bless Kenya.

This week, I'm Rex Masai and Boniface Kariuki.
Light a candle for the fallen heroes from this evening.
Vigil at churches, schools, and towns, and CBDs and more.
The one infront of the gun lives forever.
After MPs criticized the Finance Bill, 2026 in public, 308 of the 348 MNA APPROVED it. 186 avoided Parliament, 122 VOTED for the Bill. 40 stayed in the Chambers and VOTED per their conscience. 2027 is next year. Kenyans will hold relevant political parties/MPs accountable.
🚨 JUST IN: KRA has officially changed the deadlines for filing annual tax returns in Kenya.
Millions of Kenyans will now have different filing dates depending on their tax status.
📌 New deadlines:
• Nil Returns (no taxable income): By January 31
• Salaried employees (PAYE only): By April 30. Most returns will be pre-filled on iTax - simply verify and submit.
• Businesses & taxpayers with other income (side hustles, consultancy, rental income, etc.): June 30 remains the deadline.
This replaces the old system, where almost everyone filed by June 30.
Please read, save, and share so your family and friends don't miss the new deadlines and end up paying unnecessary penalties. Adios.

This evening, I paid a courtesy call on Senior Counsel and PLP Party Leader Hon. @MarthaKarua at her home to express my solidarity following her ordeal in Uganda earlier in the day.
Also calling in were Hon. @skmusyoka, Hon. @HonJBMuturi and @profkagwanja.
There can be no meaningful East African Community if citizens performing their professional duties are harassed or barred from moving freely across the borders as permitted by the Treaty.
As counsel for political prisoners Dr Kizza Besigye and Hajji Obeid Lutale, @MarthaKarua has every right to access her client in Uganda.
We call on the government of Uganda to uphold the rule of law and respect binding treaties of the Jumuiya.
