Agreed! Nairobi cannot keep growing at the expense of the very things that make it liveable. Mamdani has sharpened my thinking about city leadership. In 2027, I will be looking closely at who has a serious plan for our trees, green spaces, planning and public realm. We should not have to lose Nairobi in order to develop it.
I don't know how any reasonable and objective Kenyan can vouch for a regime that repeatedly brutalizes Kenyans for merely exercising their article 37 rights. Mulinge Mundeti and Collins Otieno are the latest victims of a national security apparatus operating with impunity.
@EUinKenya I'm saddened to learn about Ambassador Katrin passing. She was so warm and kind everytime I interacted with her on behalf of @Media_Focus for the #MsPresident program. Condolences to her family and colleagues.
@Winnie_Byanyima from Nairobi, my heart goes out to you and your family for the untold persecution of @kizzabesigye1. More grace and fortitude to you and your family during these darkest of times. It feels hollow to say it right now, but may justice prevail.
@SusanAMangeni Its your full-chested and daylight violation of the constitution that demands that you because of your official position, you stay out of politics, especially partisan politics, that stands out. That's one of the biggest tragedies of the KK administration.
@Gatimu Objectively, health wasn't any better under the national/central government. What would be useful is a sincere and concerted effort to resolve the challenges counties face, partly caused by @MOH_Kenya and @StateHouseKenya, in delivering healthcare services.
@HakiKNCHR I take great exception to the remarks by your chairperson today regarding the supposed regulation of protests. We expect from @HakiKNCHR an unequivocal, unconditional, and without prevarication defense of Article 37 rights.
@NPSOfficial_KE Yet whenever Kenyans come out to exercise their article 37 rights guaranteed by this very Katiba, your officers usually come out using excessive force and fatal fire to stop them. Irony of the highest order.
@SpokespersonGoK What's the difference in meaning between MAFALA and SHENZI becuase on more than one occasion now the President has referred to opposition leaders as MAFALA. Hizi ni zile gonga za nipe nikupe.
Reading tea leaves from the weekend events, the traditional/ entrenched politicos and establishment are not feeling a candidate they didnβt plan for. In the same way June 2024 caught them off guard and they regrouped, they will do so again
Time to move beyond excitos & plan!
@ntvkenya, thank you for the Ol Kalou Blood Trail: Anatomy of by-election-related killings. What a heart-wrenching account. If the authorities choose to take action in the interest of justice, now or in the future, they have a valuable starting point.
@ODPP_KE, how come you have not exercised your constitutional mandate to order an independent & thorough investigation into the violence against @LindaMwananchi_ in Homa Bay on Sunday? The violence was atrocious. Surely you didn't fail to see the scale of the violence.
@NPSOfficial_KE There's a video of @gpdkaluma addressing a group including bodaboda riders in dholuo on saturday and inciting violence against @LindaMwananchi_ supporters. Is it that you lack dholuo speakers who can transcribe for you? He should be answering for his role in the Sunday crimes.
