Day 5 SHA system is down. What is the MOH doing? Just having a countdown to our first ebola case.
What is our CS Health, Duale doing? He's convening meetings with stakeholders to set up an ebola quarantine facility in Laikipia. No one in the ministry is addressing this SHA issue
The Ministry of Education essentially tells school headteachers to run a child's entire termly basic education, buy curriculum materials, and maintain facilities on Ksh 95. Meanwhile, State House spent Ksh 2,500,000,000 completely unauthorized in 42 days.
You tell Kenyans to tighten their belts but then as the head of state and deputy, you go on a spending spree splashing money on helicopter rides, and more while Kenyans die for lack of healthcare.
You can't speak of austerity measures while doing the opposite.
State House spent about Sh2.5 billion in just 6 weeks of FY2025/26, according to CoB.
Here is how:
— Jan 19: Sh353 million
— Jan 30: Sh380 million
— Feb 5: Sh396 million
— Feb 11: Sh258 million
— Feb 19: Sh291 million
— Feb 26: Sh390 million
— Feb 27: Sh381.8 million
We did not fully realise how close we came to changing the course of this country when Gen Z protesters occupied Parliament.For a brief moment,the illusion of an untouchable corrupt political class was shattered and ordinary citzens majority young people demonstrated the power to challenge a system that has thrived on impunity,corruption and public complacency.
Looking back,it is painful to recognise how near we were to a historic turning point. The momentum was real, the public outrage was justified and the demand for accountability was unmistakable. Yet the moment slipped away, allowing the same political establishment to regroup and continue business as usual.
But history is not shaped by a single moment. The lesson is not regret_it is organisation, persistence and vigilance. Real change requires sustained civic action,not just spontaneous resistance. The next opportunity must find Kenyans better prepared,more united and impossible to ignore.
The 2027 elections must be more than a routine political contest. They should be a national verdict on failed leadership,broken promises and the culture of impunity. Kenya deserves leaders who fear the people more than the people fear them_leaders who understand that public office is a duty,not a licence to exploit the nation.Kuna kazi inahitaji mbogi dear patriotic Kenyans.Chukua kura. How did Napal overtake us?
Mbadi reads the budget today.
He shall conveniently leave out the withdrawals they plan to make under Article 223.
Check the budget and see how much is put under 'Other Expenses', Furniture, Domestic and foreign travels.
Corruption is budgeted for. ‼️
This is what is happening in this country going by the Controller of Budget's report.
-State House spent up to Ksh. 4.45B outside the budget
-State House spent unauthorized Ksh.2.5B within 6 weeks
-The government spent Ksh. 200B without any approval
Just what we know.
Kenya has reportedly awarded a Chinese firm a $2.9 billion (about Sh375 billion) contract to upgrade JKIA, according to Bloomberg.
The deal comes nearly two years after the government cancelled a proposed agreement with Adani Group.
I have heard Busia County leadership repeatedly claim that I have stopped development projects through court action. Today, I challenge them: produce the evidence.
If indeed there are projects that were ready for implementation and were stopped solely because of my actions, then the funds allocated for those projects must still be available. Public money does not disappear simply because a project has been delayed.
Let the County Government produce the bank statements, project accounts, and financial records. Let them show the people of Busia: "This was the project. This was the budget. Senator Omtatah stopped it. Here is the money that remains untouched."
But if the money is no longer there, then the question is not what I stopped. The question is where the money went.
I do not go to court to stop genuine development. I go to court to stop corruption, illegal procurement, abuse of public resources, and the grabbing of public land. Development and accountability are not enemies. In fact, accountability is what guarantees that development benefits the people.
When we questioned the proposed use of ATC land, or the unprocedural relocation of Busia Polytechnic, we were defending public institutions. When we questioned procurement processes and double payments on IFMiS, we were demanding transparency. When we sought documents, Bills of Quantities, contracts, and approvals, we were carrying out constitutional oversight.
The propaganda will not sell this time round to the people of Busia.
Therefore, I challenge those making these allegations to publish the financial records of every project they claim was stopped. Let them show the project accounts. Let them show the balances. Let them show the procurement documents. Let them show the people where every shilling is.
If they cannot do so, then they must stop using my name as an excuse for failures that belong to them. I haven't stopped the provision of medical supplies to hospitals, or bursaries and capitation. As they say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
Accountability is not sabotage. Transparency is not hostility. Oversight is not opposition to development.
The people of Busia deserve both development and accountability, and they should never be forced to choose between the two.
