“A new report reveals the late Raila Odinga is the only top politician who never sued the media, even if criticized.” Source MOE here on X @moneyacademyKE . That one line says a lot about who Raila was, a man who believed in the power of free speech, even when it worked against him.
He understood that leadership wasn’t about silencing voices, but about listening, especially when the truth was uncomfortable.

To mourn Raila Odinga is to remember the father of Kenya’s democracy, a man who spent his life fighting systems that wanted to break him, and still showed up every single time.He might have had his flaws, yes, he was human after all, but there will never be another Raila. A man who turned pain into purpose, defeat into movement, and criticism into courage.

He taught us that democracy isn’t given, it’s fought for.
That freedom isn’t free, it’s earned through sacrifice, patience, and endless resilience. For decades, he stood where others feared to stand. He faced imprisonment, exile, betrayal, and still came back with the same message: Kenya must be free.

And maybe that’s why this loss feels so personal.
Because Raila wasn’t just a politician, he was a symbol of resistance, of hope, and of dreams that outlived generations.
He carried the voice of millions, inspired loyalty and criticism in equal measure, and through it all, he never lost his sense of dignity.
He wasn’t perfect. He made mistakes, took risks, and sometimes got it wrong, but he never stopped believing that Kenya could be better.
And that belief alone changed this country forever.

Jameni Kenya 🇰🇪. Let’s have an honest conversation.

Some of you seem to have forgotten—or never understood—what this moment truly means.

If it weren’t for Baba, many of the freedoms you enjoy today wouldn’t exist. Political pluralism. Electoral transparency. The 2010 Constitution. Devolution. Even the freedom of speech some of you are misusing right now.

Yes, I’m also talking to you—keyboard warriors spewing hate and insults at Raila Odinga, even in his passing. Shame on you!

Let’s put some respect on the name Raila Amolo Odinga.

If you can’t show decency, then kindly—be silent.
I said it. It needed to be said.

Let’s talk. Let’s reflect. Tafadhali?

What this says is that the 61 year old political experiment has failed; as if we hadn't seen it was too long a duration to keep the drudgery running with all its fits, stops and starts. The next era, redefined by Gen Z, is one of a total break with the past - tupende tusipende.

Last night @KhalifKairo was discouraging his peers from attending the maandamano. But his warped views have been challenged by others based on actual numbers.

And because Kairo is a clout-chasing money-laundering intellectual-dwarf, the culture of scouring through government reports might seem foreign to him.

Which is why Kenyans of goodwill wishing to buy vehicles should boycott Kai and Karo Limited. Your money should not go to finance a company co-owned with one of Ruto’s children in the background.

THE PRESIDENT OF KENYA HAS DISSOLVED THE CABINET!!! THE POWER LIES WITH THE PEOPLE ALWAYS!!!!!

[Eric @amerix]

If you are a Kenyan,

You must have seen a sustained narrative claiming that your president and his deputy are at loggerheads.

They are NOT.

You must have heard that the president is persecuting his deputy just the same way the former president was at loggerheads with his deputy.

They were not.

Here is the thing,

The system keeps you in a sustained political debate.

This artificial conundrum is designed to distract you and vex your spirits.

This debate is meant to sow divisions among citizens.

The system thrives in confusion, division and distraction.

Listen,

The social stratum has the wealthy, the middle class and the poor.

The poor are busy looking for survival, they have little time for political correctness.

The wealthy are busy looking after their wealth by funding politicians to write legislation that will continue making them wealthier.

The crux of the matter is in the middle class where you and I sit.

These are the pawns of the game. They are educated but are idiots.

They are the ones who go to the queue for voting.  (The poor don't vote unless induced by money).

The middle class are the noise decibels.

They are the donkeys that work hard to feed the rich. They are heavily taxed.

They are the fools thrown into a heated circus to hate each other, create divisions and distract themselves.

They claim to be learned but cannot decipher the political con game.

The middle class are the ones with big televisions, smartphones and computers. It is here the rich pay the media to sow seeds of confusion and distraction.

It is only a foolish Kenyan who thinks the political crooks from both ends of the political divide don't meet privately to laugh at how they have divided the masses.

It is only a foolish citizen who thinks politicians serve them.

They don't and will never.

Politicians serve

• The World Bank

• World Economic Forum

• IMF

• USAID

• UKAID

• America

• Britain

Refuse to be drawn into imaginary conflicts.

Focus on your goals.

Mobilize your energies.

Politicians won't save you. They are part of the problem.
