@MasenoG@mcpipita Govt duties equaly shld not erase citizens duties. That would help reduce the burden on govt and too much dependency. But we also understand the system wld hate a citizenry that is not dependent on it otherwise their relevance is diminished. #Power_To_The_People
Environment activists and Forest Conservators have today staged a protest over the continous cutting of trees and deforestration activities being carried out by the Ruto regime.
Patriotic Kenyans, if we fumble in 2027, we will only have ourselves to blame.
Never is the history of our nation have we experienced an existential threat like we have in UDA.

It's unfortunate we shall not make it to the World Championship 2026. I've tried everything within my control. We were not accorded the appropriate support despite my efforts. Participating in this event could have been so special for me, I wanted to gift myself and my country but it's well. This marks the end of my 2026 competition season, looking forward to 2027. Despite the ignorance and frustration, I will keep pushing skating sports with every available resource and we shall restore our dignity. Kenyan athletes cannot keep changing their nationalities because of incompetence, we must stand up against the injustices. Truth is, money was approved in my name but had a more hardworking recipient, the sad reality that faces many Kenyan athletes, frustrating our hardwork. Lets focus on 2027!

How do street protests become political power? What can the 2027 elections deliver for Kenya’s young majority?
And what role can the diaspora play?

Happy Teachers’ Day to my favourite primary school teacher, Mr Mwaniki, and to all teachers.
Mr Mwaniki taught me English at Pangani Primary School, where he taught from 1977 to 2015. He ran the school library, the most beautiful space in the entire school and my favourite place there.
I fell in love with the written word because of his teaching and the way the books in his library were so well arranged and classified. It made me enjoy reading in the school library, and I always looked forward to his classes.
He retired in 2015 after a teaching career of 41 years.
His love for books has made him allergic to social media and WhatsApp. The only way to reach him is by regular phone call. The first and last time he voted was in 1997, for Charity Ngilu (Masaa ni ya Ngilu). He has grown to hate what Kenya has become because of corrupt politicians and decided never to vote again. However, he looks forward to voting for me in 2027 because, in his own words, he has always believed in me. Happy International Teacher’s Day.
Ironic how there's always land available for imperialist capitalists to occupy and own, but there's nothing available for indigenous communities to build a livelihood.
Lamu had over 9,000 acres ready for Dangote yet a good number of the locals are sovereign squatters.
After the revolution, we shall right these blatant wrongs, we must enact LAND REDISTRIBUTION.
Also included on the list was the late controversial Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo, who was at the centre of a massive graft probe in Zimbabwe. He was also a frequent visitor to Kenya's Head of State.
To obtain a Kenyan passport, one must prove citizenship by birth through a national identity card and birth certificate. For foreigners, requirements include at least seven years of residency in Kenya, proficiency in Swahili or English, demonstrable contribution to the country’s economy or society, and gazettement of the application.
When british colonizers arrived in Masakû, they confiscated large chunks of land; from Îveti, through Mua, Lukenya, Athi River, Syokîmaû and parts of Kîtengela.
They then started a grazing levy on Akamba natives.
To graze one had to pay with a cow.
It was draconian, oppressive and frawned upon.
Akamba Ngûmbaû- warriors- led by Kîamba, Nzivû wa Mweû, Mwana wa Mûka, Syonguu wa Kathukya and Syotune wa Kathûke, would raid colonizer ranches, kill them and take back their cattle.
To counter this, british invaders started to mass slaughter the cows at a place in Athi River, it later became, The Kenya Meat Commission.
So to all industries with large chunks of land, sold to you by the government, know that it is our community's property, confiscated violently by white colonizers and never returned even when we became independent.
Kenyan politics is a constant act of masturbation and jerking off. You have to do clownish things and behave like a clown because Kenyans expect a circus.
Failure to do so means you don’t get the attention, and in the circus of Kenyan politics, you will be ignored. If you can’t pull off a circus, splash money and it works much better. You buy respectability even if you have the intellect of a toilet fly that follows a coffin to the grave. So it’s basically a game of absurdity and money.
That doesn’t mean all hope is lost. That’s why some of us are in politics: to make it about issues. Those who support me and other progressive leaders give me hope. I hope that our children will inherit a better country, one where, in their time, our politics will attract the very best, who will build a nation worth living in.
Finally, Kenya is basically a poor ghetto with ghetto leadership that has an insatiable greed to accumulate power and wealth. We, the few hundred thousand middle-class Kenyans who have the privilege of a decent income, can take our kids to private schools, and afford private medical cover, are so scared of losing what we have that we are willing to compromise and sell our souls to maintain our comforts.
My advice is that you don’t need to be in politics loudly. Quietly support change in your ward and constituency, and help save Kenya. Do civic education so that the average voter doesn’t vote blindly for money, tribe, or political party.
The 2027 election is about saving Kenya, and if we fail to do so, we can kiss change goodbye. We cannot survive another five years of what is happening today.
Happy Saturday!
