@moneyacademyKE Revenue administration should follow the law, evidence, consultation and established procedures. Otherwise, businesses cannot plan because tomorrow's tax administration may depend on who gets an audience at State House.
Users report intermittent 502 errors. But only some users. And only sometimes.
Your investigation:
- ALB health checks: all green
- Target group: 6 healthy instances

What do you think is wrong?
Airtel Money plans to launch an overdraft service in Kenya, allowing users to complete transactions even with low balances.
The move will compete with Safaricom’s Fuliza in the mobile credit market.
To all my dear students,
You’ve probably heard what’s happening in my country, Iran. For 47 years, we’ve fought this brutal regime for basic human rights, freedom, and dignity. This same regime spreads terrorism worldwide, making your cities less safe too, and now it’s slaughtering its own people on the streets.
Protests exploded over the collapsing economy, but the regime has completely cut off the internet and phone lines to stop the world see its massacre (at least 217 confirmed dead). The judiciary chief just threatened the protestors that there’s no pardon this time. Last time, they executed thousands despite the so called pardons! If they’re not stopped, they’ll kill and execute tens of thousands of innocent people fighting for a normal life.
President Trump has warned them that if they keep killing people, the US will intervene and hit them hard.
Under international law like the UN’s Responsibility to Protect (R2P), when a regime massacres its own civilians, the world is allowed (even obligated) to step in to save lives.
I’m begging you from the bottom of my heart: Can you please do me a huge favor? Retweet this right now and tag @POTUS and @realDonaldTrump so he hears us and steps in to stop the bloodshed before more lives are lost.
We need the world, and America, to stand with us.
Thank you… I’m scared for my people. Please help us. ❤️
Folks,
Finance Bill 2025 is out!
The last time we saw Finance Bill close to this lean in pages was in 2021 (47 pages) & that was coming on the back of two COVID-19 induced Tax Laws legislations.
Some key highlights from my reading.
A 🧵
📢 BCLB has ordered a total ban on
1. TV & radio gambling ads
2. Gambling promotions on social media
3. Print ads (newspapers, flyers)
4. Outdoor ads (billboards, matatus, etc)
4. SMS/email/push campaigns
5. Celebrity/influencer endorsements
Days after meeting President Ruto and Mudavadi, Vietnam Gas boss Doanh Chau delivered a diplomatic jab: Kenya talks big but doesn’t build.
All microphones, no machinery.
“No serious execution culture”
Huyu Mkora wa Kasarani simuachi!
A legislator who's supposed to protect Kenyans is at the heart of laundering Money as a Digital Thug
Sportpesa and Aviator are now where Drug Lords and Politicians are cleaning Money
Every 2 minutes sequence, you will see the same accounts placing bets of 30,000 for 24hours nonstop. These are accounts owned by our politicians.
All they have to do is open an account with sportpesa Aviator to "show proof of betting "so that the money cannot be questioned
Karauri will then have them selected manually where the Winnings are purported to be multiplied by ×30 or ×100 depending on the amount which is being laundered.
So every Monday, RNN motors which he co -owns with a weird Arab (Mohammed Ahmed Odaymat) purports to give a Jackpot of a Bentley or Range
But no car leaves that show room!
While the cartel counts its winnings, real lives are collapsing
Hii kwanza ya akina Karauri is a pure crimes syndicate that's nefariously licenced
A father in Kisii took his life after borrowing KSh 150,000 to chase a jackpot dream.
A boda rider in Umoja lost his entire savings in a week, his account frozen after a phantom deduction
In Nyeri, a college student left a suicide note addressed to “the game that promised everything but took it all.”
Broken Homes. Suicides and the nation is eeerily silent as lives are shattered
The regulators are silent. Media Houses are complicit. Bribed by the Cartels
Overstated jackpot winnings, phantom sponsorships- all avenues to clean cash while pretending to “empower” sports.
His other partner, Nikolov has been tied to international cybercrime syndicates — particularly credit card skimming and digital wallet draining operations across Europe and Asia.
He exported these tactics to Kenya. They've embedded data-extraction systems in Sportpesa that allegedly siphon card details, track user spending patterns, and quietly drain cards through micro-transactions and ghost charges.
This could explain the mysterious deductions many punters experience — topped-up accounts that vanish, disputed transactions, and constant card security warnings from banks!
This Isn’t Betting. It’s Digital Banditry!
A new report by PSC reveals that Kenya has over 17,000 ghost workers in the civil service, benefitting from taxpayers’ money.
The list include:
—Ministries: 12,329
—State House: 156
—State corporations: 2,486
—Public universities: 1,885
—commissions and independent offices: 225
—Statutory authorities: 75
—KBC: 231
—Department of Investment: 26
—Council of Governors: 26
—Blue Economy Department: 97
—Commodities Fund: 57
—National Housing Corporation: 15
Stop everything you are doing.
Forget everything else any MP said today.
Or will say tomorrow.
And,
Watch this video.
Because this is the only video you should watch today.
Now retweet this video.
Because every Kenyan needs to hear Hon. Robert Mbui FEARLESSLY saying what every Kenyan wants to tell Ruto.
In Parliament.
