David Maraga: The right to a fair hearing is sacrosanct. The court finds that Gachagua was not given a fair hearing...In my view, after that finding, the inevitable conclusion would have been to annul that impeachment.
89% of Kenyans in Mt. Kenya region, 85% in Lower Eastern, 78% in Western, 76% in Nairobi, 73% in Nyanza and 65% at the Coast feel the country is heading in the wrong direction - TIFA survey
Thanks to @CNN for the opportunity to discuss the U.S. plan to open an #Ebola quarantine, isolation, and treatment facility in #Kenya for Americans. I shared concerns about this approach and why exposed Americans should be repatriated and cared for within the specialized systems weβve already built.
@WilliamsRuto Lol, Mudavadi is wearing a 50,000 USD Rolex Daytona while the counterpart from Azerbaijan is wearing a Garmin sport watch worth 1,000 USD...and you wonder why nobody takes you seriously π
@Benign_Overlord My 2 cents. Ruto of 2026 = Moi of 2002 = loathed & at wit's end. There will be no pulling a rabbit out of the hat. I will be genuinely surprised. Just see what Moi was doing towards 2002 and see what WSR is doing. Carbon copy. There is nothing new under the sun.
@deejay_drops@Kalasinga_ Solutions don't come in whole numbers but in fractions. If he is kicked out, it puts in motion a set of dominoes that ensures his ilk doesn't come near the ranks of power. Rome was not built in a day.
Harry Truman once said: βThe only thing new in the world is the history you do not know.β
Fellow Kenyans, our crisis did not begin yesterday.
The looting. The illegal debt. The betrayal of the Constitution. The collapse of public services. The silence of career politicians. These are old scripts repeated by leaders who believe Kenyans forget quickly.
They believe another scandal will trend. Another distraction will come. Another funeral, another handshake, another coalition, another slogan.
Meanwhile, you pay more taxes for debts you never approved and never benefited from.
Between 2014 and 2024, Kenya borrowed Sh9.11 trillion. Only Sh2.57 trillion received proper parliamentary approval. The remaining Sh6.54 trillion is odious debt, unconstitutional borrowing forced onto the backs of struggling citizens.
This is why food prices rise while wages stagnate. This is why hospitals lack medicine while billions disappear. This is why schools decline while politicians grow richer. This is why young people graduate into hopelessness.
And while Kenya bleeds, legacy politicians remain silent. Many are not fighting to fix the system. They are fighting to inherit it.
They criminalize protesters. They weaponize police. They reward political loyalists with advisory jobs funded by taxpayers. They protect corruption networks while ordinary Kenyans suffer.
We go to court because the Constitution is the last line of defense between the people and organized state plunder.
From the struggle for independence in 1963, to Saba Saba, to the 2010 Constitution, every generation of Kenyans has been called to defend freedom against greed and impunity. History is watching us now.
If we remain silent while our country is looted, future generations will remember us as the people who watched Kenya collapse and did nothing.
Read history. Defend the Constitution. Reject fear. Reject silence. Reject thieves disguised as leaders.
We must be a nation that reads, remembers, and refuses to be misled by the same old tricks. Know your history, defend your rights, and let us not be "newly" surprised by what we should have already learned.
