Impeachment against @rigathi upheld but the court found that his right to a fair trial was violated. Awarded kes. 50,000,000 as compensation.A very interesting dimension that should be escalated to the Court of Appeal.The decision has generated more heat than light.The elephant in the Room: impeachment is https://t.co/NQJpW5yJrf with one hand and taking with the other hand.
The High Court Judges in @rigathi impeachment case have 'ruled' the Country almost the whole day today.
Whichever way,the decision will have a huge bearing in the next presidential election and General election.
Lawyers and litigants will also have an encyclopedia to refer to on matters impeachment going into the future.
Kapkures, Nakuru West, Nakuru County.
This evening, I joined the family of the late Faith Koskei in Kapkures Ward, Nakuru Town West, to commiserate with her family, relatives and friends following her tragic death after a road accident as they drove to Utumishi Girls Academy after receiving a distress call informed by a fire incident.
I wished Wakili Emmanuel Koskei, her husband, who was travelling in the same vehicle, the quickest recovery as he continues to receive treatment in hospital.
I encouraged students, parents and guardians to resolve problems without destroying properties like learning institutions.
May the almighty comfort the family, friends and relatives as Faith Koskei rests in peace.
There is so much illicit money out there but genuine money for those toiling in coffee,sugar cane,potatoes,tea and dairy farms.What are we doing wrong as a country?
Every person has the right, peaceably and unarmed, to assemble, to demonstrate, to picket, and to present petitions to public authorities.
Article 37 of the Constitution of Kenya.
Many school going children did not go to school today.
Many judicial officers did not attend Court physically.
Many road users kept off our roads due to notices served online on protests against hike in fuel prices.
The right to protest, picket and assemble (peaceably and unarmed) as guaranteed by the Constitution of Kenya cannot be over emphasised.
The same right should however be used sparingly so as to protect our economy, justice sector and proper functioning of our institutions. We should not hurt ourselves more as we savour our rights.
#KenyattaUniversityVC Dispute:
Justice Njoki Mwangi of Kiambu HC while recusing herself from the Kenyatta University VC Dispute:
“Mr Steve Ogolla yesterday, May 19, 2026, came to Kiambu High Court, wherein he communicated to my aide that he wanted to see me, a request that I declined,” ✅️
And upon asking our senior Steve Ogolla to explain;
'The said advocate having explained in court today that he wanted to see me to inform me that he would be making an oral application today for the discharge of ex parte orders, I hereby disqualify myself from this matter'✅️
I am glad the protest has been suspended.Goons and robbers have retreated.The guns have gone silent.The protest was very https://t.co/5q5T0rokh1 has shaken the Country to its very foundations.The whole country grounded to a halt.Many day schools were shut down.Lives lost.Many were injured.Massive property destroyed.The economy has suffered.
The protest could have been avoided.We do not have another https://t.co/ek3cjKKO0F should not happen again. Let us all come together and find a middle ground.
1. Tea Levy introduced by the Government against tea exports and imports should be abolished immediately.
2. 0.8% on exports will hurt tea farmers more.Our tea will be very expensive and less competitive.
3.The Government should reestablish lost markets in Sudan, Chad , Iran etc.
4.County Governments should hire agricultural extension officers who should advise farmers on the best agricultural practices.
5.Tea is the 3rd largest foreign exchange earner and that is good enough for the Country.Cartels should not be allowed to kill the sector.
Enhanced fuel price hurts everybody in Kenya and an urgent solution is needed.The Poor suffer more because of increased inflation that will eat into their income.Those who have pulled out their vehicles as a protest are protected by the law.They should be protected and engaged on the way forward.Goons,robbers,hooligans and hoodlums who have taken advantage of the turmoil to obstruct others,destroy property, maim and or kill should be arrested forthwith and Charged in Court.We have one country that we must preserve and conserve.Nobody will give us another country.Meanwhile, the Government should not issue threats but find a middle ground on the fuel crisis.Suspend some taxes as the Global crisis hopefully abates Soonest.
