High Court Judge Lawrence Mugambi has declined to refer cases of alleged enforced disappearances and killings to the ICC, stating that “Kenya is not a failed state.” The ruling reinforces confidence in local institutions and affirms the principle of handling justice domestically.

I've listened to Murkomen in this clip multiple times just to ensure this is actually happening in our country.

Let me tell you, this government, with Murkomen as the Interior CS, will be the first one in our history to solve a murder puzzle involving an elected leader.

[Gideon Kitheka Snr @Gideon_Kitheka]

For those of you who have had an opportunity to go through the Finance Bill 2025, you'll agree with me that it focuses on making our tax system more efficient and fair.

No new taxes are being introduced. Instead, the emphasis is on closing loopholes, simplifying compliance, and ensuring every shilling collected is put to good use for the benefit of all Kenyans.

[BKK @monarch_spark]

Instead of changing taxes every year, moving forward the taxes will be consistent with no big changes. This should give confidence to the business community that there won't be abrupt changes on the tax policies in the country. This been seen in the #FinanceBill2025

[BKK @monarch_spark]

No more taxes have been introduced in the #FinanceBill2025 . The treasury focused on sealing tax loopholes that have been previously used to evade tax payment.

@MRSMuruguu Matiang'i oversaw one of the worst moments of state killings and it will forever haunt him

[NG’ENDO MURUGU @MRSMuruguu]

Skeletons in Matiang’i closet will haunt him forever.

From commanding the nation’s most feared docket to commanding crowds with Wamunyoro and other political rejects … Matiang’i may be back in the public eye, but the ghosts of his past will haunt his State House ambition, it will remain a pipe dream! The legacy of state brutality, deportations, and political repression under his watch cannot be wished away.

Economist Prof. Iraki says the 2025 Finance Bill is shaping up as a “people-first” proposal—focusing on empowering low-income earners and easing pressure on taxpayers already hit hard. The bill aims to balance tax fairness with sustainability.

[BKK @monarch_spark]

I hope that for once we will have a constructive space. One that is factual instead of just hating the government. Let's give flowers as good as we criticize.

Digital tax to be slashed from 3% to 1.5% in the upcoming budget. CS John Mbadi says the move targets fairness for small digital entrepreneurs and aims to boost compliance and revenue collection. Lower rates, higher participation. Pesa mfukoni.

[Bianca™ @BiancaNaom1]

CS John Mbadi has announced that the Digital Service Tax (DST) will be slashed by half from 3% to 1.5%, a welcome move aimed at enhancing compliance and boosting revenue collection!

For starters, DST is a tax levied on income obtained from services offered through a digital marketplace in Kenya.

A good example is Kilimal and Jumia for e-commerce, Netflix for streaming, and Spotify for music, among others.

In a nutshell , DST applies to revenues earned by companies providing digital services or operating online platforms within the country, even if they do not have a physical presence locally.

The net effect of reducing DST from 3% to 1.5% is that it'll encourage more businesses in the digital sector to pay taxes, potentially increasing overall revenue collection despite the lower tax rate.
