The only person who can abduct you in the CBD in broad daylight with cameras rolling is the police/government. Unless you are saying the government has completely failed in its mandate to secure the safety of Kenyans. 'Unknown men' kitu gani.

This SACCO alleged 'fake news story" looks like a badly run government experiment, where someone released a very specific idea into the public space, watched Kenyans panic, then ran back to call it fake news after the reaction became hotter than expected.
If this was a communication mistake, it was reckless, and if it was a test balloon, it failed badly, because Kenyans have made it clear that government should keep its hands away from SACCO funds, M-Pesa balances, bank deposits, pensions and every private shilling citizens still control.
Kenyans must stop trusting words like propose, intend or plan, because by the time government says it publicly, the deal is usually already deep inside the system.
What remains is procedure, rubber stamps and propaganda to calm you.
The question is not whether Kenya may belong to the IMF or the World Bank. The question is whether the Bretton Woods Agreements Act, a statute enacted at independence in 1963 may continue, after the promulgation of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, to authorise treaty implementation, borrowing, public expenditure, tax exemptions, and institutional immunities in a manner that weakens judicial control of public power, limits access to justice and information, and displaces the constitutional architecture of accountable public finance.
While the Act may have served a lawful purpose at the time of its enactment in 1963, its continued operation must now be assessed against the normative framework of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010.
To the extent that its purpose or effect is inconsistent with the Constitution, the provisions must be read down, adapted, or declared invalid.
Accordingly, even if the Act was constitutionally unobjectionable at independence, its continued effect in the post 2010 constitutional order cannot be sustained where it undermines or derogates from constitutional requirements.
We know the Ruto regime is broke, that one is no longer a debate, because every new policy now looks like Treasury searching under mattresses for money.
We know that even if they are handed Sh1 trillion from SACCOs, the same tender games will start, costs will balloon, projects will be revised, brokers will appear, and politically connected tender boys will become richer overnight.
They are telling SACCO members that their money will go into infrastructure, but nobody is explaining when those roads, airports or projects will zaa matunda and return real money to the teacher, nurse, farmer, trader or boda rider whose savings were touched.
Kenyans have already seen this movie, where a project starts with clean English, moves into inflated contracts, disappears into tender corridors, then returns years later as a scandal that nobody is punished for.
Why are we pretending this is development financing when everybody can smell the scam from the gate, especially after the same government borrowed everywhere, taxed everything, sold assets and still came back for private savings.
Call it what it is.
This is a scam in an infrastructure helmet.
The audit reveals that Finsprint, a private firm involved in the SHA payment system, deducts a 2% fee from every payment made to hospitals before the money is sent.
Strangely, it also says the firm's majority shareholder has no verifiable address.
If Kenyans accept government entering SACCOs, they are finished, because this is worse than the Finance Bill since government already messed up bank lending, choked small businesses, killed markets and pushed ordinary people into SACCOs as the last place they could still borrow.
Once Treasury follows you into that last corner, competing with teachers, nurses, traders, farmers, boda riders and mama mbogas for the same savings, just know the government is no longer looking for development money, it is looking for survival money.
They are now telling Kenyans that government eyeing SACCO money will be a big win for savers, which is the kind of comedy you hear when a hyena enters a goat shed and calls it a security partnership 😂😂😂😂😂
A broke government that has borrowed everywhere, taxed everything, sold public assets, crowded out SMEs through banks and now wants SACCO money cannot suddenly be marketed as a blessing to savers.
SACCO members did not save slowly from salaries, biashara, farming, boda rides, police pay, nursing shifts and teaching jobs so Treasury could arrive with a PowerPoint and call their private sacrifice infrastructure financing.
This debate is very simple, because government should not compete with ordinary Kenyans for SACCO money, loans and credit in the last financial corner where citizens were still breathing.
Calling this a big win for SACCOs is like telling a man that the thief measuring his door at night is doing free security assessment.
Those supporting, financing & cheering goons disrupt opposition rallies must know that tables always change! Power is a revolving door! Universe enjoys dark humour.
The Good Bible says:
He who sows the wind, will reap the whirlwind!
By the way, GOONISM is TERRORISM!
The Government Ate The Debt, But Kenyans Are Being Marinated To Pay
Kenyans are being marinated for default, and every sign is now sitting in public view, from heavy borrowing to new taxes, sale of state assets, pressure on workers and the fresh interest in private savings.
First, the government borrowed heavily and sold debt as development, then turned around and taxed fuel, payslips, mobile money, housing, imports, businesses and small traders, yet still acted as if citizens were the problem.
Then came the sale of public assets, with Kenya Pipeline Company and parts of Safaricom placed in the wider money hunt, which is what broke states do when lenders become tired and normal borrowing starts becoming harder.
Banks then built a sweet debt circle with government, where lending to Treasury became easier than lending to SMEs, leaving traders, farmers, contractors, manufacturers and ordinary borrowers starved of credit.
That banking arrangement slowly choked biashara, pushed small borrowers into blacklisting, dried up working capital and forced many Kenyans back into SACCOs as their last remaining place for savings and loans.
Now the same government that fed banks with public debt is walking into SACCOs, looking at money saved by teachers, nurses, police officers, farmers, boda riders, mama mbogas and workers.
That SACCO money is not idle money waiting for Treasury, since it belongs to Kenyans who saved slowly for school fees, land, homes, hospital bills, small businesses and family emergencies.
After SACCOs, Kenyans should expect cleaner language around pensions, bank deposits, M-Pesa flows, transaction data, patriotic investment and national development, which is how broke governments start preparing citizens for deeper pain.
Ghana was here with domestic debt exchanges, Sri Lanka was here with shortages and tax pain, Argentina was here with frozen bank deposits, and Lebanon was here with citizens staring at money they could not freely touch.
Kenya is not special, and Kenyans must stop pretending that a debt crisis will only punish State House, Treasury, Parliament and the tender billionaires who ate the money.
When a state reaches this stage, citizens become guarantors through taxes, inflation, weak currency, expensive credit, bank pressure, pension pain, SACCO raids and mobile money charges.
The anus cannot be stitched to stop diarrhoea, and a debt crisis cannot be cured through asset sales, SACCO money, new taxes, bank pressure and speeches dressed as infrastructure plans.
Kenyans are not angry enough, since many still think default means government falls alone, yet every country that has reached this point shows citizens are dragged into the mud first.
The money is finished, public assets are being sold, private savings are being measured, banks are already overfed with government paper, and Kenyans are being softened slowly for the day Treasury admits what the signs already said.
