"The people are not in the middle of this relationship between national and county government whatsoever. Because if the people were, somebody, whether the governor or the president, national government or county government, would be willing to give way for the benefit of the people. But because politics is in the middle of this relationship, so we do not want to see, or we will not see anybody giving way for the sake of what gives the people the benefit. So we are looking for the political capital in this project." - Meshack Odede, Political Analyst

"Remember, in terms of performance of the county governments and the people who have actually had it right, Murang'a is on the top. Many county governments would wish to have Kang'ata as their governor." - Ikua Wa Mbote, Political Analyst

"The national government cannot forcefully take over county functions! Stop politicizing development projects and let governors do their work - health services and projects belong to the people, not politicians seeking credit."- Sabina Chege, Nominated MP

"At what point has Ndindi Nyoro become a mole because he has come in to eat at what Gachagua thought was his own region, yet he himself once said he could go and hide in Ndindi’s home? Are we moving from the frying pan to the fire?" - Sabina Chege, Nominated MP

"Where did Sifuna remove the gown of rule of law and impeached Gachagua who did not commit any sin according to the constitution?"- Meshack Odede, Political Analyst

"The presidential race is a game of numbers. You cannot win without numbers on your side, and that is why political rivals are putting their differences aside to defeat Ruto." - Ikua Wa Mbote, Political Analyst
#TV47Breakfast#StateOfTheNation@Fredindimuli
"Politicians are all the same monkeys. They are maybe in different forests, but they are the same monkeys. When Sifuna comes in to eat in the basket of Wamunyoro, he is welcomed. But when Ndindi Nyoro comes in, he is called a mole. It’s a hypocrisy of the highest order." - Sabina Chege, Nominated MP

"Sifuna, you are doing something that every other politician has done and still claim change and still claim to be the new face of politics in Kenya. How is it possible?"- Meshack Odede, Political Analyst

Opposition Squad: No Gatekeeping Allowed
"There is absolutely no way that the Opposition will be allowed by their supporters to produce two different camps when it comes to facing William Ruto." - Ikua Wa Mbote, Political Analyst
#TV47Breakfast#StateOfTheNation@Fredindimuli
"There are very high chances that the President Ruto will be re-elected. And it depends with how he finishes."- Sabina Chege, Nominated MP
#TV47Breakfast#StateOfTheNation@Fredindimuli
"I don't think Ruto will follow through wit his tax cuts because it is an election year. I think he will follow through because it's a promise that Kenyans look forward to ensure that it is done because people in the republic who are earning 32,000 are very many." - Meshack Odede, Political Analyst
#TV47Breakfast #StateOfTheNation
@Fredindimuli
"During the election year, the devil removes his horns and tail, and he looks like a human or an angel. Ruto’s tax-cut timing appears aimed at making him look like he is working, rather than being motivated by goodwill. Kenyans must look beyond promises and examine the intentions behind election-year announcements." - Ikua Wa Mbote, Political Analyst

Tax Exempt: Genuine or Campaign Strategy?
"It is sad when we see so many people or children graduating and then they stay at home. It is very sad when you go back to the village, you find someone who tells you, ‘I have a degree, I have a master's, but they are just seated at home.’ And I think the high time we start having the difficult conversation of our universities, what are we training our students on? Is it market-driven? Is it demand-driven? Or are we just training because they are flashy courses with big names, but at the end of the day, the job opportunities are not there?" - Sabina Chege, Nominated MP
