A Kenyan court has just delivered a landmark ruling in a medical negligence case that dragged on for almost two decades.

Naila Qureshi sued Dr Raffique Parker and two others over a hysterectomy procedure done back in 2006.

She says the doctor removed her cervix without her consent, and botched the operation so badly that it caused a vesico vaginal fistula.

The damage cost her her job and her ability to earn a living.

Her husband also joined the suit, citing loss of conjugal life and years of suffering.

Justice Alexander Muasya Muteti found the 1st and 3rd defendants grossly negligent.

The hospital was faulted too, for letting a doctor who had been disbarred in Uganda practice on Kenyan patients.

In the end, the court awarded the family a staggering Kshs 157,207,524.20 in damages.

It is one of the biggest medical negligence payouts ever ordered by a Kenyan court.

@mrrasmulan @grok what’s the difference

[CPA Wachira Joseph @WashiraX]

Kiambu County has shown KRA dust.

KRA audited the county.

And found the county was collecting serious money from:

- Parking fees
- Business licenses
- Market fees
- Renting stalls
- Renting stadia
- And other county fees

Then KRA asked:

- Where is our VAT?

- If you charge 10,000 for stalls
- You should have added 16% VAT

So Kiamburians should have paid: 11,600

And the extra 1,600 goes to KRA.

But Kiambu did not charge VAT. So KRA became dramatic and said:

- No problem. You'll give us that VAT from your own county coffers.

It is at that moment that, Gov Wamatangi knew hii si mchezo.

He ran to court.

He argued:

- The county is not a business entity.
- It is a government unit performing public functions
- It does not operate for profit
- The county fees charged are already a form of tax
- Charging VAT on them is double taxation
- It is illegal

The court agreed.

And KRA’s VAT demand was set aside.

This is a big precedent.

It means:

- County services should not be inflated by VAT.

- Public services are not businesses to charge 16% VAT.

Stop normalizing team buildings that are scheduled on rest days. If you want to build your team, use company time.

Unethical use of #AI to draft pleadings. The High Court struck out the pleadings.

[The People’s President @bonifacemwangi]

Here is a list of foreigners whom Evelyn Cheluget, the Director General of Immigration Services, has issued Kenyan passports to travel with. The orders to issue the passports came from the Statehouse. Number 6 is Zimbabwe’s Wicknel Chivayo, who is supposed to help Kasongo steal the 2027 elections.

To apply for a Kenyan passport, you need a Kenyan identity card and an e-citizen account, and you have to pay. Whose account was used for this illegal passports application? Did they use a zero token where no payment was made? Why were the immigration officers told the applicants were Very Important Persons (VIPs) and to issue express passports? Please Google the list of names of those Ruto gave Kenyan passports. Post what you find on the comments.

Selling Kenyan passports is evil but selling our passports to criminals is pure demonic behaviour! Ruto Must Go!

@pwanyama The good thing is that Kenyans are a resilient bunch and in no time we will have a new mode of operation between in house and law firms coz in-house will definitely be overwhelmed doing all the work

[Nelson Havi SC @NelsonHavi]

On another note, I plead with you civilians. Do not send Advocates many texts or call them between 8am and 12pm unless you are sending them Mpesa and RTGs slip or giving them a new brief. Please, allow us to work. I am The Last Hope.

We ran a team of 14 advocates on X, we insulted no one, abused no one. We were just selling our candidates agenda. 🙏 @ckanjama

[Faith Odhiambo @FaithOdhiambo8]

I convey hearty congratulations to @ckanjama SC on his resounding win in todays Election to become the 52nd President of the @LawSocietyofKe. His record of dutiful service to the society and contributions to development of governance in Kenya make him a worthy torchbearer of the LSK's vision and mandate.

I wish you all the best in your tenure, SC. You inherit the leadership of a united, stable and forward-looking society which can achieve great success if steered diligently and tactfully. The people of Kenya will look up to your leadership as we get into a high-stakes electioneering period, and I am hopeful that you will offer the required leadership and remain committed to the rule of law and constitution.

Serve with distinction.
