@KillaLando@KiproMw Most of it is funded by Russia. About 80%. The crux of it would be the nuclear fuel. Rosatom would provide everything essentially. Soft power is the end goal I think. They have the means, knowledge and research and experience and they are leveraging it.
There is a deliberate narrative being pushed that Kenyans are wave driven, are easily excited and easily distracted. That narrative is not analysis. It is strategy. It is meant to make you doubt your own judgment and to shift attention away from substance.
The cost of living remains high. Taxation has reduced the value of the payslip. Families feel it every month. Small businesses feel it daily. Public debt continues to burden the economy. The SHA system has faced serious operational challenges, leaving many uncertain about access to healthcare. We wake up to reports of corruption and misuse of public resources with alarming frequency. These are lived realities.
Kenyans are evaluating leadership against clear standards, Integrity, Courage and
Consistency. That is democratic maturity.
The claim that citizens “leave” reform voices is designed to fragment genuine alternatives and protect the status quo. If people believe reform efforts are temporary hype, they may hesitate to invest their time and energy. That hesitation benefits those already in power.
Over the next months as 2027 General Elections approaches, political realignments will happen. That is normal in a democracy. What must remain constant is your standard.Demand results. Demand integrity. Demand accountability.
The Kenyan voter is informed. The Kenyan voter is aware. The Kenyan voter is watching. #GetitDone #ReKe
EXECUTIVE IMPUNITY AND THE EROSION OF THE RULE OF LAW
The story in today’s Daily Nation about senior State officials openly defying court orders is deeply troubling but sadly, not surprising. It confirms what I have warned about for some time now: we are sliding toward an imperial presidency, one that treats the Constitution as optional rather than as the supreme law binding us all.
President William Ruto came into office promising a “bottom-up” transformation and pledging respect for the independence of the Judiciary. Today, those promises ring hollow. What we are seeing instead is growing executive impunity. This is not a minor legal issue, it strikes at the very heart of our democracy. When the State decides which court orders to follow and which to ignore, it undermines the sovereignty of the people and sends a dangerous message: that justice is reserved for the powerful, not for all.
A glaring example is the conduct of the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA). On December 11, 2025, a three-judge bench of the Environment and Land Court issued clear conservatory orders stopping the Southlands Affordable Housing Project in Lang’ata. Yet just five days later, and in open disregard of the court, NEMA’s Director-General, Dr. Mamo Boru Mamo, allegedly issued an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) licence to allow the project to proceed. This was a blatant act of contempt and an endorsement of illegal construction on public land.
Let me be clear on where I stand:
•Contempt must carry consequences. I have moved to the High Court to have the NEMA Director-General cited for contempt and committed to civil jail. State officers must understand that they are personally accountable when they choose to break the law.
•Public land is not up for grabs. The Southlands project sits on land historically set aside for road and railway corridors. No slogan about “affordable housing” can justify the grabbing of environmental buffer zones or the exclusion of the public from decisions that affect them.
•The Judiciary is our last line of defence. The Executive may wield power, but the courts hold the moral and constitutional authority to restrain it. I urge the Judiciary to stand firm against this growing culture of Utado!, open defiance of the law.
We do not defend the Constitution when it is convenient. We defend it because it is our only protection against tyranny.
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance

DEFENDING KENYA’S STRATEGIC ASSETS: PETITION FILED TO STOP KPC PRIVATISATION
On 2 January 2026, together with Bernard Muchiri Muchere and Naomi Nyakerario Misati, we filed a constitutional petition at the High Court of Kenya challenging the proposed privatisation of KenyaPipeline Company Limited (@kenyapipeline) and other strategic State-Owned Enterprises.
We have moved to court to stop the Government’s plan to sell 65% of KPC through an Initial Public Offering by March 2026. This plan is unconstitutional, unlawful, and anti-sovereign. It is not a decision of the people of Kenya, but one driven by external pressure from the International Monetary Fund (@IMFNews).
KPC is a profitable, 100% publicly owned strategic asset. In 2024 alone, it posted KSh 6.87 billion in profit and paid KSh 7 billion in dividends to the @KeTreasury. Selling such an asset to service public debt violates public finance law and erodes national sovereignty, energy security, collective ownership, and intergenerational justice.
Our petition raises grave constitutional concerns, including:
•IMF conditionalities that undermine Kenya’s constitutional sovereignty
•Over KSh 97 billion in unaccounted retained earnings and depreciation funds at KPC
•Lack of public participation and transparency
•Irregular and unlawful appointments at the Privatisation Commission
•Misuse of Parliament, with approvals sought via Sessional Paper instead of proper legislation
We are asking the Court to declare the entire privatisation process unconstitutional, quash all related decisions and notices, and permanently bar any further steps toward the sale of KPC.
This is a public-interest case. We seek no compensation or costs. Our sole objective is to defend the Constitution and protect public assets that belong to all Kenyans, today and for generations to come.
I have filed a Constitutional Petition No. E757 of 2025 in the High Court to defend the integrity of Kenya’s presidential election process and to uphold the Constitution of Kenya, 2010.
This petition challenges the unconstitutional establishment and operation of the National Tallying Centre during presidential elections, as well as Sections 39, 39(1C), 39(1G) of the Elections Act and Regulation 83(2) of the Elections (General) Regulations.
The Constitution is clear:
✔️ Presidential results are tallied, verified, and declared at the 290 constituencies, and those results are final and binding.
✔️ The role of the @IEBCKenya Chairperson under Article 138(10) is strictly clerical; to add up constituency results and declare the winner.
❌ The Chairperson cannot verify, re-tally, alter, or overturn any constituency result.
❌ No law or regulation may introduce a second layer of verification at county or national level.
Yet, current laws and @IEBCKenya practice unlawfully create a parallel system of verification at the National Tallying Centre, which:
• Treats final constituency results as provisional;
• Enables interference, manipulation, and delays;
• Undermines transparency and fuels mistrust;
• Violates the people’s sovereign will as expressed at the constituency level.
This petition seeks, among other declarations:
🔹 Abolition of the National Tallying Centre as currently constituted;
🔹 Quashing of unconstitutional provisions in the Elections Act and Regulations;
🔹 Immediate public posting of final constituency results at each constituency;
🔹 Removal of illegal verification powers from County Returning Officers and the IEBC Chairperson;
🔹 Restoration of strict compliance with Articles 86 and 138 of the Constitution.
If successful, this petition will fundamentally transform the management of presidential elections from 2027 onwards, ensuring a transparent, decentralised, and constitutionally faithful process with no “Bomas drama” and no ambiguity.
Our democracy must be anchored not on improvised systems, but on the letter and spirit of our Constitution. This petition is part of my continued commitment to defend the rule of law, protect the sovereign will of the people, and secure free, fair, and credible elections.
@wanjirunjira Last year someone opined that Ruto isn't the enemy (up for debate) but he is there to bear the brunt of the policies he makes. That even if he was to go the policies would still remain.
Stop misleading Kenyans buana.
F1/F2 is the Bill you are talking about. F3/F4 is the Bill we are talking about.
What you are talking about is Constitution of Kenya Ammendment Bill, 2025 which seeks to ammend Articles 94, 95, 96, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 173, 221 and also insert Article 199A to Establish a County Assembly Fund. Co sponsored by Sen Aaron Cheruiyot and Stewart Madzayo. Stop misleading Kenyans by parading the wrong Bills. The Bill in Question is Constitution Ammendment Bill, 2024 that is at Second Reading Stage according to Senate Own Bill Tracker as at 14 August 2025
I have formally written to the EACC on the rampant corruption in the Busia County Executive.
The letter is copied and delivered to President Ruto, Governor Otuoma, the Controller of Budget, and the Auditor-General.
The fight against corruption and impunity must be decisive. Kenyans deserve nothing less.
Kenya inastahili heshima!
I joined @thekhrc for the release of their report on financial inclusion, focusing on the Hustler Fund. It reaffirms what we have long maintained: the Hustler Fund is unconstitutional and violates core principles of public finance and accountability.
The original sin was not the Fund itself but Parliament’s abdication of its constitutional role. By amending the Public Finance Management Act, Parliament unlawfully handed the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury the power to create funds, a power that the Constitution reserves exclusively for Parliament.
You cannot manage an illegality. The Hustler Fund must be decommissioned. It is funded directly by the exchequer using taxpayer money, yet it operates outside the legal framework for national funds. This is a blatant breach of the Constitution.
Parliament-created funds are constitutionally separate from the Consolidated Fund and financed through specific levies, not general taxation. The Hustler Fund ignores this, running without proper regulation, oversight, or transparency. Already, Ksh 60 billion has been allocated to the Fund, Ksh 10 billion above the publicly declared cap.
At the heart of the problem is the structural confusion between the National Treasury and the Ministry of Finance. We must restore clarity. Parliament must reclaim full control of the national purse. Budgets must not only be passed in Parliament, they must be implemented in accordance with the law.
The Hustler Fund cannot be reviewed. It cannot be restructured. It must be shut down entirely. You cannot reform a wrong. You end it.
It is time to uphold the Constitution, restore accountability in public finance, and return fiscal power to the people through their elected representatives in Parliament.

The forensic audit I commissioned into Busia County’s finances FY 2022/23 has exposed a deliberate, orchestrated looting scheme of over KSh 5.2 BILLION, money meant for development, stolen in plain sight. There’s no visible change on the ground, yet certain individuals are building lavish homes and running huge businesses.
Despite reports and red flags, the Auditor-General and EACC have remained toothless and complicit. The Auditor General gave Busia a clean bill of health in the said financial year despite clear mismanagement of resources. That is why I moved to seek an expert, Mr Muchere, so we can unmask the mess in the system and call for accountability and call out the injustice against the people of Busia County.
We’re now auditing FY 2023/24, and already encountering resistance in accessing source documents just like before, in 2023, which pushed me to go to court to compel transparency from the Governor and County Government, to allow me access the financial books.
The Auditor General was twice summoned to Senate so I could interrogate her reports, she dodged both times. But I’m not backing down. I’ll face her, and I’ll get the truth.
This isn’t just about Busia. It’s about building the second Republic. One where the Constitution is not ornamental, but a loving promise that no Kenyan will be robbed of their future by the greed of the few.
Urgent institutional and legal action must be taken to ensure accountability and prevent a recurrence. I urge my colleague senators to follow through by commissioning forensic audits in their counties.
The Busia County forensic audit FY 2022/23 is only the beginning. Recovery is justice. Transparency is peace. And accountability is non-negotiable. The era of impunity is over.
Kenya Istahili heshima.
