@HELBpage Then after repaying you don't issue us with clearance certificates even when we desperately need it! You don't receive calls, don't respond to mails, na tena officers wenu hawakai Kwa ofisi. Unaambiwa mtu amebeba ofisi Kwa mgongo ameenda nayo field work! Surely! @GeoffreyMonari

[Josiah Odanga @Jamilitary17]

@HELBpage What about the Clearance and stoppage certificate? How long should it take? Been waiting for a whole month? You don't respond to calls and mails thro' your verified contacts! You equally don't respond to DMs. @GeoffreyMonari

[Josiah Odanga @Jamilitary17]

@HELBpage wakikuambia kuja DM for assistance, unajipata unajiongelesha kwa hiyo inbox. What's wrong with public institutions in this age of social media and increased tech penetration? @GeoffreyMonari @HonJuliusMigos #KUCCPS

RESIGNATION AS THE DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF, DELIVERY AND GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY

Following my declaration earlier today that I intend to run for Presidency of the Republic of Kenya in the year 2027, my position as the Deputy Chief of Staff, Delivery and Government Efficiency is no longer Tenable.

I have therefore resigned from the position with immediate effect.

@RealMatiangi : It is not a policy in this country that police kill people or enforce the law violently. When police do that it is a criminal offence and should be handled as such.

@RealMatiangi: We cannot say that we want to be (like) Singapore when we are not educating our population. We need to avail more resources to the education sector. #FixingTheNationNTV #FormNiMatiangi

@RealMatiangi:
If we were under colonial rule today, I would carry arms and join others in fighting for the freedom of my country. Today, my country's governance needs fixing, I am saying: Here I am send me! #FixingTheNationNTV #FormNiMatiangi

[Josiah Odanga @Jamilitary17]

@RealMatiangi: There is almost near unanimity in Kenya today that we need to reform. I don't think there is any confusion in the mind of Kenyans that we are not in the right place, and we need to change.

I am on my way to the Odinga family home in Bondo to offer my heartfelt condolences to Mama Ida and the family on the loss of her beloved husband and one of Kenya’s greatest sons, the former Prime Minister Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga.

Statement on the Passing of Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga | 15th October, 2025

It is with profound sorrow that I have learnt of the passing of Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, former Prime Minister of the Republic of Kenya, a statesman, a patriot and an enduring icon of our nation’s second liberation. His life was a living testament to courage, sacrifice, and an unyielding belief in the sovereignty and dignity of the Kenyan people.

Through decades of struggle and public service, he stood unbowed in his conviction that freedom, democracy, and justice must be the pillars of our Republic. His vision and resilience helped shape the conscience of our nation and inspired generations to believe in the promise of a fair and democratic Kenya.

I join the nation in mourning this devastating loss. The Rt. Hon. Raila’s role and contribution to our country’s democratic journey is not only indelible but truly and practically unparalleled. My deepest condolences go to Mama Ida, the Odinga family, the people of Nyanza, and the entire nation.

It is difficult to say more than this, as I, like many, struggle to come to terms with this heartbreaking loss.
