Her husband told a court she was too strong to be a wife. The judge agreed and stripped Wangari Maathai of everything, her family, her job, her home.
She looked around and noticed women walking miles every single day just to collect firewood. So she handed them seeds instead. The government responded with arrests, beatings, and a padlocked office door.
30,000 women trained. 51 million trees planted across Kenya. Nobel Peace Prize in 2004. They handed her destruction. She turned it into an entire forest.

Ban Ki-moon, then secretary-general of the United Nations, commented on how, in his visits to some of the most forgotten areas of the world, there was a common factor: the presence of Cuban doctors.

“They are always the first to arrive and the last to leave.”

A proposal has been introduced that seeks to change KNBS to the Kenya Statistics Authority.

The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has increased electricity costs by a total of Sh4.40 per kWh for May 2026 through new forex, fuel, and water levies.

The adjustments, which include increases in the Fuel Energy Cost Charge, Foreign Exchange Fluctuation Adjustment, and Water Resource Management levy, are expected to raise power bills for households and businesses already struggling with the rising cost of living.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has just made a massive ruling on YOUR pension money.

Attorney General Dorcas Oduor and 3 others LOST the case while defending the government’s position.

For years, the government treated pension money deducted from workers’ salaries as if it were public money.

That is why pension schemes faced endless bureaucracy, procurement rules, delays, and costly approvals before investing your savings.

The Association of Retirement Benefits Schemes challenged this in court.

They lost in the High Court.
Lost again in the Court of Appeal.
But on 15th May 2026, the Supreme Court finally ruled in their favour.

The court declared that pension schemes sponsored by public entities and state corporations are PRIVATE TRUSTS, not government money.

Meaning?

Your pension is YOUR money.
Not the government’s.

Trustees can now invest faster, avoid unnecessary procurement bureaucracy, and potentially grow retirement savings better for millions of Kenyans.
This is one of the biggest financial rulings most wananchi have never heard about.

@smutoro All public universities should close all satellite universities and concentrate their resources at their main campuses. Why should we have Kenyatta university Mombasa, Nairobi CBD etc

Some things will take me forever to understand. Why does a 1 and a half hour flight from Nairobi to Dar Es Salaam cost Ksh. 40,000 to Ksh 50,000 yet a 24 hour flight from Nairobi to China is Ksh 75,000. What exactly is going on?
Why does accomodation for one night at a four star hotel in Kenya cost Ksh 20,000 yet in China a four star hotel is Ksh 5,000 per night?
Why do borrowers in Kenya pay an interest rate of 18% to 22% for loans yet in China the interest rate is 3%. How will a kenyan company that is borrowing to expand its manufacturing technology or equipment compete with a chinese company that is borrowing 1 billion dollars at 3%?

US has listed Kenya among key markets for fake goods, including medicines and electronics, according to a US trade report.

World Bank told Nigeria to reopen fuel imports because Dangote’s fuel was 12% more expensive than imports. Dangote called it flawed. World Bank quietly deleted the whole report from their website.

Meanwhile Europe is buying refined fuel from the same Dangote refinery because Middle East supply got disrupted. The same Europe that used to sell Nigeria its own crude back as petrol. You can’t make this up.

An African refinery finally works at scale and the first recommendation is not invest more, not expand capacity. It’s bring back imports.

When Africa consumes nobody says a word. When Africa refines and competes suddenly it’s a problem.
