Kenya's government plans to sell at least 1,000 datasets from platforms like eCitizen over five years to raise revenue.
The Sh396 million project will include anonymised datasets such as:
— Land transactions
— Passport applications
— Vehicle registrations
— Birth and death records
— Business registrations
The High Court has raised concerns over what it said was the issuance of Kenyan national identity cards to foreigners.
It warned that weaknesses in the country’s registration system threaten the integrity of citizenship documentation.
In a judgment involving Bosnian national Zlatko Gegic, Justice Roselyne Ekirapa Aburili criticised what she described as the apparent ease with which some foreigners obtain Kenyan identity cards, despite lacking legal entitlement to citizenship.

BREAKING: Congolese President Tshisekedi Stuck at Budapest Airport Over Ebola Concerns
President Félix Tshisekedi was held up at Budapest Airport after arriving with a delegation to attend the Champions League final between PSG and Arsenal, sources claim.
Hungarian airport authorities refused him entry, stating they had not been notified of the arrival and citing the ongoing Ebola outbreak in the DRC as the reason.
In a twist, his brother, Christian Tshisekedi, is said to have landed in Hungary days earlier with friends, traveling via Brussels on multiple private jets and already on site for the match.
The incident has sparked questions about protocol and travel restrictions amid the health crisis.
WHO Chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus visits Bunia in the Democratic Republic of Congo as authorities race to contain a fast-growing Ebola outbreak, with 1,028 suspected and 225 confirmed cases. Health officials warn the third-largest outbreak is outpacing the global response.
⛔️ In the wake of this growing regional threat, it is necessary to question Kenya’s capacity to withstand a potential Ebola outbreak.
What is the Government doing to protect its citizens? We cannot risk a pandemic without a functional public health system, yet the current state of healthcare raises serious concern. With porous borders and limited containment capacity, the risk of rapid transmission remains high. History has shown that weak preparedness, not the pathogen itself, is what turns public health threats into national crises.
At the clinical level, health workforce preparedness and frontline protection remain inadequate. Staffing levels are insufficient, and access to specialized Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is inconsistent. Critical gaps persist in ICU bed availability across the forty-seven counties, cross-border surveillance, and screening at major points of entry.
Above all else, the protection of Kenyan lives must come first. The Government of Kenya must provide clear, detailed answers on critical care capacity, workforce readiness, emergency stockpiles, and the national preparedness framework. Based on current system realities, serious gaps remain in Kenya’s readiness for a potential Ebola outbreak.
If you want to understand what it’s like to quarantine after a high-risk #Ebola exposure, watch this important interview with @andersoncooper and U.S. physician Dr. Patrick LaRochelle currently in the Czech Republic.
Too often, we focus on policies and protocols and forget the human experience. Quarantine is more than a public health measure—it is uncertainty, isolation, and disruption for those at its center, often healthcare workers who stepped forward to help others.
24 hours without a formal reaction from the Kenyan government even though it’s a Kenyan court that blocked the US Ebola facility.
Why is all the information about this coming from Americans?
