The Kshs. 550,000.00 monthly salary and a Prado is not worth this distraction. ODM should be firm on Sifuna’s removal from his appointive position of SG. No one was born a SG. He can be an ordinary member like other members. This self-entitlement is disgusting. Be contented in the outfit you are constructing with Orengo and funded by Yala River Butchers, Uhuru Kenyatta and Fred Matiang’i!
The signing of the KSh22.1 billion Samurai Bond facility signals a new chapter for Kenya’s automotive industry. With this financing, we will see accelerated local manufacturing of vehicle parts, strengthening our industrial base and creating more opportunities for jobs, skills development, and technology transfer.
This afternoon at State House Nairobi, H.E. President William Ruto witnessed the signing of this landmark financial agreement between the Government of Kenya and Japan’s Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI), represented by its CEO, Atsuo Kuroda.

It was such a joy getting to spend time with Joe and Jill, George and Laura, and Bill and Hillary last week. Barack and I will always be grateful for your constant friendship and support of our family over the years.
(And George, thanks for the mints!)
Edwin Sifuna is a hypocrite. He can’t say that he totally disagrees with and doesn’t support his party leader, Oburu Oginga, or his party’s positions on everything, yet he wants to remain secretary general of a political party he claims to fundamentally disagree with.
He actually signed the ODM/UDA pact he now rails about. Where was his brain and stand when he signed the agreement in public in 2024? Remember that he signed the pact AFTER Ruto had massacred the GenZs!
We can’t support political hypocrisy and opportunism of this magnitude. He must resign from being secretary general and membership of ODM and seek a fresh mandate. That’s what Raila Odinga did when he resigned from FORD Kenya and vied on NDP.
Say NO to hypocrisy and opportunism among Kenyan MPigs!
President William Ruto: To address concerns raised by returning travelers, including Kenyans who travel abroad and members of the diaspora, we have increased the duty-free allowance from Ksh 39,000 to Ksh 260,000 for gifts and personal effects that Kenyans can buy as they travel or as they come home from their jobs abroad
Today, I witnessed the signing of the contract for the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) Modernization Project, a major National Infrastructure Investment. The contract was signed on behalf of the Government by the Principal Secretary for Aviation and Aerospace Development, Ms. Teresia Mbaika, and Mr. Yu Xiaodong, General Manager of China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC).
The JKIA Modernization Project is a strategic undertaking aimed at expanding airport capacity, enhancing safety, improving passenger and cargo services, and strengthening Kenya’s position as a leading regional aviation hub.
The project scope includes the construction of a new terminal building and associated support facilities, the modernization and upgrading of existing infrastructure, the improvement of airside and landside operations, and the enhancement of overall operational efficiency and service delivery.
The procurement process has been ongoing over the past three months following the completion of the JKIA Master Plan in February 2026. More than 40 companies participated in the pre-bid conference held in April 2026, which clarified the project expectations and scope of work. The process was conducted in full compliance with applicable procurement laws and regulatory requirements, with all submissions evaluated on technical and financial merit.
As a Ministry, we remain firmly committed to transparency, accountability, and strict adherence to all required standards as we deliver world-class aviation infrastructure that will position JKIA as a premier gateway to Africa and drive Kenya’s economic growth and competitiveness.
I was joined by the Managing Director of the @KenyaAirports, Eng. Moses Wekesa, legal representatives from the Ministry and CRBC, as well as senior officials from the Ministry, CRBC, and KAA.
JKIA Expansion Plan:
Government to spend Ksh 154.2B in JKIA modernization
The project does not include a new runway
China Road & Bridge Corporation expected to get contract
The project is expected to deliver a new passenger terminal
Airfield and existing passenger terminals to be upgraded

ODM is legally, constitutionally and morally right to remove @edwinsifuna as its secretary general. It doesn’t matter if one likes or hates ODM or Oburu Oginga.
You can’t be the secretary general of a political party you don’t believe in.
If one is secretary general, s/he must support the party they are a member of. Period!
Sifuna and his Linda Tumbo Group should be honest and courageous enough to leave ODM and either join or form a political party they believe in.
You cannot eat and have your cake at the same time. Let’s have, encourage and institutionalize political hygiene in Kenya.
The hunter becomes the hunted 😂
But a Kshs. 3 million bribe for a Kshs. 4.5 million assessment is just wild. Hiyo ni kujiletea.
Dear public officials,
Control your greed and have some empathy when dealing with your prey.

Ethiopia's GDP is $117 billion compared to Kenya at $132 billion, slightly below Kenya. . It's 2026/27 Expenditure Budget is $14 billion whilst Kenya's is $37 Billion, more than 2X that of Ethiopia for a population that is only 50% that of Ethiopia!
We live large in this nation!
Ethiopia allocated 22% to regions. Kenya allocated sh 428 billion, less than 10% of its sh 4.8 trillion budget to regions/counties.
We are still centralised!

Yesterday, it was an honour to tour Dangote Petroleum Refinery with the Directors of First Holdco and subsidiaries 🐘🏭
We were warmly hosted by Africa’s greatest industrialist, @AlikoDangote, whose ambition to the continent continue to inspire so many of us.
Even though I’ve visited the site several times, each visit reminds me of what is possible when big dreams are backed by real action.
Africa’s future will be built by leaders who believe deeply in our own people… F.Ote💲
Great strides are made when we invest in the empowerment of women, the backbone of our families, communities and economy.
It gave me great pleasure joining fellow leaders in Kwale County to support initiatives aimed at uplifting and empowering women.
By creating opportunities for women to thrive socially and economically, we are not only transforming individual lives but also strengthening communities and driving sustainable development.
In attendance were Mombasa Governor H.E. Abdullswamad Sharrif Nassir, Kwale Woman Rep Hon. Fatuma Masito, Kwale Senator Hon. Issa Juma Boy and Magarini MP Hon. Harrison Garama Kombe among other Coast leaders.
Car inspection businesses have had their challenges, and this is something I expected from the word go. Whereas most of the car yards in the country are legitimate, we've had our share of troubles in our pursuit of the truth.
If you are planning on buying a car, kindly reach out to us on 0729 686 646, and we will come do a well-detailed inspection for you, ensuring that you take home a car that's worth it.
Ahmed bin Saeed: Dubai has become a global model for achievement and accelerated development. Through its world-class infrastructure, particularly in the energy and water sectors, Dubai has firmly established itself as a leading international benchmark. Launching DEWA International marks a strategic step towards extending this successful model to global markets.
Ahmed bin Saeed launches ‘DEWA International’, a wholly owned independent subsidiary aimed at developing conventional and clean energy projects worldwide and exporting Dubai’s successful energy and water infrastructure model to global markets.
Ndindi Nyoro is one of the most hypocritical figures in Kenyan politics!! The only reason this statement exists is because Kenyans saw right past the BS.
What we are witnessing here is HYPOCRISY and STUPIDITY of the highest order. You cannot spend years cultivating the image of an alternative voice, positioning yourself as the intellectual conscience of government, then disappear when the moment of accountability arrives.
And then return with a carefully crafted statement about humility, patriotism and service.
We are being asked to believe that there was something more important than one of the most consequential votes affecting the lives of millions of Kenyans. There wasn’t.
Nothing was more important than that vote.
Absolutely nothing. Kwenda uko🚶🏿♀️WANTAM!!
