The vilest person you know also believes himself good. So who, then, is truly good?

Only the person who doubts his goodness is good. Because, by it, they acknowledge their capacity for evil, which then compels them to actively pursue goodness. Constant pursuit, not designation.

We have done a summary of the proposals that were rejected by MPs, why they were rejected, and the proposals that were passed.

Here is the deeper thread.

Save and share.

No amount of sanitization or manipulative re-invention should make you forget Ruto’s sins.

To folks whose adulthoods don't reflect their brilliance, scholarly credentials, or talent; it may be a little late a lesson, but life owes no success for your accumulations, but rather what you do in the arena. There is no pension scheme for unrealized potential. Sad, but true.

I have always asked people who accuse Coasterians of being lazy: "you want these people to wake up at 6 am, to go where exactly?"

Industrial complex? Dead. Corporate? Nonexistent. Temperature? Hell Celsius. Soil? Acidity. Infrastructure? a rumor.

Wake up at 5 am to go where?

KRA wants a share of money your wife sends you.

There is a guy called Kamau.

When it was time to buy his wife, he paid dowry north of 8 million shillings.

It was the most grand ruracio.
For the rest of the year, the lady became the talk and song of Gatundu South. Furaha ribo ribo karibu imalize bibi.

Out of joyful fury for her husband, she decided to take revenge.

She called Kamau. Violently. Akajishika kiuno. Pointed at her phone. Akamwambia, key in your account number here.
Kamau, thinking his wife was playing games, keyed it in.

A few seconds later. His phone whistled. 10 million shillings has landed in his account. Cash money.

Kamau could not believe it. Bibi anakupatia aje pesa? Aje? Kwani ni makosa gani anajaribu kuficha?

He thought he was dreaming. He pinched himself to see whether he would wake up. He did not wake up. The money was real.

• Lesson 1: Pay your wife's dowry. I will not teach you everything.

I have no clue how KRA sensed it. But sometime later, Kamau was selected for a tax audit.

KRA went straight for his bank statements. They found the deposits of 10 million shillings.

Immediately, they baptized the entire amount as undeclared taxable income.

Then demanded: 30% income tax. Plus penalties and interests.

- Total bill: 3 million shillings plus.

When Kamau saw the tax bill, he thought his magnifying spectacles had been hacked to magnify the numbers. He removed them. He saw the same mad numbers live live. He went nuts.

When he returned to the real world. He shipped a protest letter to KRA.

He explained that the sender was his wife.

He explained that the money consisted of soft loans, financial assistance and funding from her.

He explained that he had not sold anything to her.

He explained that the money was not payment for any goods or services.

He even attached a sworn affidavit from his wife confirming all of it.

But KRA could not hear any of it. They only wanted 3 million.

When Kamau saw KRA was not playing, he ran to court.

He told the Tribunal judges:
- My Lords, I have explained my relationship with the sender.
- I have explained the nature of the money.
- I have attached sworn affidavits.
- What more does KRA want from me?

KRA responded.
And claimed Kamau had never submitted any affidavits.

Kamau calmly produced his correspondence with KRA. The affidavit was there. Duly received by KRA.

The whole court room went dead silent.

The judges looked at the documents.

Then turned to Kamau and ruled:

- Kamau had discharged his burden of proof in full.

- He had provided both documentary, accounting and explanatory evidence regarding his bank deposits.

-It found that KRA had acted unreasonably by ignoring and disregarding that evidence.

- And most importantly: Income tax is a tax on income. It is not a tax on anything else. Such as financial assistance between spouses.

The 3 million tax demand was killed.

Kamau won.

• Lesson 2.

- Not every bank deposit is taxable income.
- Document everything.
- KRA will push. Push back hard.

KRA wants a share of dowry money.

There is a guy called Kamau.

When it was time to buy his wife, he mobilized his most monied buddies.

He put them in a WhatsApp group. The fundraising began.

Those boys were loaded. They were only 35.
By by the time they were done, they had contributed 4.5 million shillings.

Others who were not in the group wired money directly to Kamau's bank account.

The ruracio D-Day arrived.

And as always, the one and only Kikuyu ruracio anthem was tuned.

🎶 Wero... Werokamu guku kwa wa Kanini... Werokamu... 🎶

Before they could finish the song, more than 2,000 people had pulled up.

Wakaanza kutoa funjo. Then one man stood on a stool and announced they could not sit until they had given Kamau top up money to add to the dowry.

The donation book was hurriedly brought. People lined up. Cash started flowing.

By the end of the day, another 2.8 million shillings had been raised.

Kamau took the money and banked it.

Total dowry contribution sitting at his bank account: 8m shillings.

The ceremony became the talk of Gatundu South.

Kamau paid his dowry. Collected his wife. And went home peacefully.

• Lesson 1. Monied friends are good for paying dowry.

I have no clue how. But sometime later, Kamau was marked for a KRA tax audit.

KRA went straight for his bank statements. They found deposits of 8 million shillings.

Immediately, they baptized the entire amount as undeclared taxable income.

Then demanded: 30% income tax. Penalties plus interest.

Total bill: 2.5 million shillings plus.

When Kamau saw the tax bill, he went mad.
He could try to talk but words would not come out. He nearly swallowed his tongue.

When he came back to real life. He shipped a protest letter to KRA.

He explained the money was dowry contribution from his family, friends and well wishers.

- He produced WhatsApp group fundraising screenshots.
- He produced RTGS confirmations.
- He produced the donation book.
- He even produced videos of the ceremony.

Including footage of the Werokamu song.

KRA could not hear any of it. They only wanted 2.5 million.

When Kamau realized KRA was not playing, he ran to court.

He told the Tribunal:

- My lord, look. I have shown KRA where the money came from.
- I have shown KRA who contributed it.
- I have shown KRA the ceremony.
- What more do they want from me?

KRA responded.
And what they said nearly made the judges fall off their chairs.

They argued the evidence was not convincing.

Why?

• Because the 2,000 plus donors had not sworn affidavits confirming that the money they gave was a donation and not payment for goods or services.

The Tribunal looked at the matter in amusement.

Then ruled.

- Kamau had discharged his burden of proof in full.
- KRA had acted unreasonably by ignoring and disregarding the substantial evidence he provided.
- And most importantly: Income tax is a tax on income. It is not a tax on every deposit appearing in a bank account.

The Tribunal found that KRA was wrong to treat all bank deposits as taxable income without first removing proven non income items such as dowry contributions.

The tax demand was killed.

Kamau won.

KRA retreated to Times Tower. And rested.

Case closed.

• Lesson 2.

- Document everything.

- KRA will push. Push hard.

Now that we are finally talking about school safety, the Ministry of Education must also address the madness of 3-year-old children being paraded on roads at 4:30am and 5am waiting for school buses.

This is also harming children. Maybe not death in the physical sense, but what kind of childhood is that?

A toddler should not be standing by the roadside in darkness like a factory worker reporting for duty.

Some of these school routines are quietly destroying children while adults pretend it is normal.

They scraped fuel subsidies, overhauled NHIF, and canceled stalled road tenders from the previous regime. But when it comes to a dangerous Ebola quarantine deal, suddenly Uhuru’s signature is a sacred, unbreakable covenant? Stop playing with us.

You are probably the only living internist who has ever supported the air lifting of Ebola to their home country. You are a qualified physician who knows what our critical care capacity looks like, you sat down in a virology class and learnt about Ebola but still chose to proceed with this reckless, self indulgent push.

Completely rubbished the Hippocratic oath and chose to do the greatest harm from one of the highest offices in the land.

[Dr. John Njenga Karugia PhD. @johnnjenga]

@USForeignAssist Ebola treatment needs exactly the facilities and expertise that your country has built in the past 250 years. What a patriotic way to celebrate 250 years by not letting your own citizens be treated in your own country? You have been to the moon and back why fear little ebola? ⚖️
