Fire broke out at Utumishi Girls Academy in Gilgil at 2am. By 4am, Kenyans were already talking about it online.
At 6:30am, the Education CS showed up at a Prayer Breakfast at Safari Park Hotel. He stayed for 1.5 hours, eating mandazi, samosas and chapati, unaware that 16 learners had died.
He arrived in Gilgil just after 10am — over 8 hours after the fire started.
For those 8 hours, parents were stuck in agony, relying on scanty and unconfirmed posts online.
Any CS with common sense would have gone to Utumishi first, not an eating competition disguised as a prayer breakfast at Safari Park Hotel.
Ogamba must go!
BREAKING: As I promised you, today I expose how John Mbadi MISLED & LIED to Kenyans on phone prices in the Finance Bill.
I have now gone through:
-the Finance Bill 2026,
-the VAT Act,
-The Excise Duty Act.
And the truth is shocking.
Phone prices will go UP, not down.
Mbadi and UDA bloggers have been all over social media saying:
“Read the bill.”
“VAT on phones has been removed.”
“Taxes have been compressed into one tax.”
But after reading the ACTUAL laws, that is NOT what is happening.
Let's begin.
