One of the goons hired to attack Governor Orengo and Senator Sifuna at St. Stephen ACK Church in Kisumu, has been killed.
We really fumbled with UDA.
We now have a President who loves himself more than the nation, and is willing to burn the Country to have his way!
It's embarrassing for the US to prevent a FIFA accredited Somali referee from entering our country. If we accept hosting the World Cup, we need to welcome teams, officials, and fans from all nations. This is the "world" cup - not the "European" cup!

One of the most brutal scenes in human history has been leaked.
An Israeli soldier filmed and published this clip while proudly boasting about the destruction of all homes in Gaza.
A video that the world must never forget.
House hunting tip 101
Before signing that rental agreement, check the electricity meter setup!
Many rental plots and appartments use Last Mile Connectivity (LMCP) prepaid meters. This can quietly inflate your power costs even if you're buying tokens directly from KPLC. Here's why you MUST verify.
Under LMCP, households get a subsidized connection around KSh 15,000 fee advanced as interest-free Stima Loan. No upfront cash, but KPLC deducts 50% of EVERY token purchase to repay it until cleared often 2-3 years. So if you buy KSh 100 tokens, only KSh 50 worth of actual units. The rest pays off the landlord/property's subsidized connection.
As a Result, you pay the same or higher for tokens, but get fewer units compared to a normal non-LMCP meter with no loan deduction. Tenants effectively foot the bill for the subsidized meter/connection the landlord benefited from without any discount on your end. It's like paying extra rent disguised as power costs.
Pro tip to test before selecting a house:
Buy a small token, say KSh 100 directly via *977#, M-Pesa (paybill 888880), or app, using the meter's number. If you get normal units e.g., ~5-6+ units (depending on band/tariff), it's likely a standard meter and you are good to go.
If you get half the expected units i.e., only ~2-3 units or less, it's under LMCP with Stima Loan deduction. Walk away or negotiate lower rent to offset.
You should ask the landlord/agent upfront
if the meter under Last Mile Connectivity, or has any outstanding Stima Loan?. Alternatively, dial *977# and select manage meters/token to check details. If it's LMCP and loan is ongoing, factor that into your budget, or push for landlord to clear it by paying lump sum at KPLC office.
Kisumu County, you have humbled me.
From Awasi to Maseno, from Katito to the edge of the water at Dunga Beach, you came out not to see a politician, but to reclaim your Constitution.
To listen to our message of Ukombozi.
The #UkatibaCaravan has heard you.
Kenya has heard you.
Wamor!

Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil has been confirmed killed by Israel.
Let's be clear: they targeted her, they launched a missile at her, and they prevented emergency services from reaching her.
They are doing to Lebanon's journalists what they did to Gaza's.
The Ruto regime had a choice of taking austerity measures, cutting waste and corruption, reducing levies and other measures to cushion Kenyans from the historical 24.5 % increase in fuel prices.
Instead, it chose to allocate 8 million a day for the Deputy President’s helicopter services and 17.2 million a day on tea and mandazi for State House, while ordinary Kenyans suffer.
The unveiling economic hardship is unsustainable.@UGMParty@Maraga27
