For decades, the Kenyan people have been burdened by odious debts incurred by past regimes under questionable, and often despotic, circumstances. These loans, ostensibly taken for national development have instead been used to enrich a few corrupt individuals at the expense of millions of hardworking citizens.
Today, Kenyans continue to suffer from economic hardship, high taxation, and dwindling public resources, all in the name of repaying debts that never served their interests.
It is time we ask: Why should the citizens of Kenya (The sovereign) bear the burden of repaying loans that were never intended to benefit them?
Why should those who facilitated these loans, only to siphon public funds into their private offshore accounts; walk free while the people struggle under oppressive economic conditions?
We must also question the role of international financial institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund (@IMFNews) and the @WorldBank, which have continued to issue loans despite glaring evidence of corruption and mismanagement.
These institutions cannot feign ignorance. Wire transfers leave digital trails. The looted money was laundered into known tax havens, and global intelligence agencies were fully aware of these transactions. Yet, loans were granted without due diligence, largely for political and financial gain, and often in direct violation of Kenya’s constitutional and legal requirements.
Under Article 211 of the Constitution and Section 50 of the Public Finance Management Act,2012, all external borrowing requires parliamentary approval. Yet, successive regimes have sidestepped this legal requirement, indebting the nation without transparency or accountability.
These unconstitutional debts must be thoroughly audited, and where illegality is found, the burden must not fall on the Kenyan taxpayer. We Demands:
1. A full public audit of Kenya’s external debt to determine which loans were acquired legally and which were fraudulent or unconstitutional.
2. Prosecution of individuals and institutions responsible for acquiring, facilitating, and looting these loans.
3. Recovery of stolen funds stashed in offshore accounts, with the money redirected towards national development.
4. A legal framework to prevent future reckless borrowing, ensuring full parliamentary oversight and public participation in debt management.
This matter is not just about past injustices, it is about securing Kenya’s future. We will not allow future generations to be enslaved by debt accumulated through corruption and impunity. The looters must return what they took, and those who enabled these financial crimes must be held accountable.
We call upon all Kenyans, civil society organizations, and international partners committed to transparency and justice to join us in this fight. We will not be silent. We will not stop until justice is served. #GetItDone #MasculinitySaturday

BREAKING: Ronny Kiplangat released after disappearing outside church on 21st December. His brother cartoonist Gideon Kibet Bull is still missing, family confirms.
Kibet is among dozens of Kenyan government critics abducted in recent months
We have much to improve, and we will, but this fighting spirit and playing with pride for this badge must be our fuel. Thank you to the travelling fans for their support. @ManUtd 👹❤️
A teacher who’s not active on social media was abducted outside his SDA church because of his brother’s silhouette cartoons. Anyone who talks about discipline or respect is lying to justify human rights violations.
8 days since President Ruto promised to end abductions in Kenya
