We are the last media House to leave Ol Kalou Tallying Centre. We came, we saw, we were hurt, our equipment stolen by goons but we made sure this story was told.

[Cyprian, Is Nyakundi @C_NyaKundiH]

Ruto attacking Standard Media Group over unpaid workers is not concern for journalists, it is comedy from a President whose own government has helped starve media houses through advertising politics.

When he became President, he wanted media houses to worship him, massage his ego and treat every State House statement like gospel, but when some media houses refused to kneel properly, the government advert tap started being used as punishment.

That is where GAA money enters the story, because government advertising was turned into a political tap, opened for friendly media houses and closed for those that refused to become State House mouthpieces.

The Star got the deal because it became useful to the regime, but even that money is said to pass through hungry State House cartels who eat heavily before the real media business feels anything meaningful.

And let us be honest, The Star lost the public because many Kenyans no longer see it as a serious independent paper, they see it as a Ruto regime mouthpiece that traded trust for access and government favour.

So Ruto should stop pretending he cares about workers at Standard Media Group.

His government is part of the suffering of those employees, because once State advertising money became a loyalty reward, media houses that refused to sing for him were left to struggle while praise singers were fed.

This is not workers’ rights activism from Ruto.

It is a President mocking people who are already suffering from a system he helped weaponize........

After MPs criticized the Finance Bill, 2026 in public, 308 of the 348 MNA APPROVED it. 186 avoided Parliament, 122 VOTED for the Bill. 40 stayed in the Chambers and VOTED per their conscience. 2027 is next year. Kenyans will hold relevant political parties/MPs accountable.

This is 2024. This young photographer from Kibra had to put his gear aside to rescue this elderly lady. Big shout-out to Mohamed. Kenyans will always show up for Kenyans.

@WilliamsRuto just fix the country, and the headlines will fix themselves.

[The People’s President @bonifacemwangi]

A letter notifying the police of today’s peaceful march to Parliament marking the second anniversary of June 25th and stating that Kenyans will be marching countrywide, was delivered to Police Spokesman Michael Nyaga Muchiri by five lawyers.

Here is the video we recorded as the letter was handed over in the presence of former Chief Justice Willy Mutunga, former Justice Minister and Senior Counsel Martha Karua, Professor of Law and Senior Counsel Kivutha Kibwana, Senior Counsel Gitobu Imanyara and Senior Counsel James Orengo.

The police had sufficient time to prepare to protect marchers and ensure that no goons infiltrate to harm protesters or loot businesses.

It is the duty of the police to protect lives and property for all and to arrest criminals. If any goons appear today and are not arrested, we shall know they are working for President Ruto.

Gen Z did more than reject a Finance Bill, they rewired our politics. From TikTok spaces to court corridors, they disrupted the old script of tribal mobilisation and elite bargains by insisting that public power answer to constitutional principle and economic justice. Their leaderless, tribeless, crowd-sourced organising exposed how quickly informed citizens can fact-check officials, decode bills and turn legalese into rallying cries for accountability. In doing so, they reminded the country that Article 1 is not a slogan but a living reality. All sovereign power belongs to the people, and those who exercise it do so on terms.

Gen Z forced courts to speak faster, MPs to apologise and an Executive that had grown tone-deaf to finally listen. They made institutions feel public pressure in real time and showed that silence in the face of abuse of power is a professional and generational betrayal. Our duty now is to entrench that energy into institutions and not let it fade with the news cycle. If Gen Z could reclaim the streets and the digital public square, the least we can do is ensure that their courage is translated into lasting legal, policy and cultural reform, not another round of cosmetic concessions.

As this moment continues to unfold, let it also be guided by responsibility. Stay safe, remain peaceful and look out for one another. The strength of a movement is not only in its conviction but in its discipline and care for human life. Be each other’s keepers because the future we are demanding must also be one we protect.

Did the government notify anybody that it would picket today and #OccupyAllRoads?

Alans Ademba: Just the other day, there was the end femicide march, which was very peaceful. Shops were still open, and no business was affected. If we say that tomorrow we are going to a peaceful protest, what we expect from Kenyans is to come to the protest. We are not going to destroy your properties. All these usually start when the government throws the first tear gas. The electorate loves itself #JKLive

We had live interview & Kasmuel said Kenyans like complaining

Even if we had Jesus as president, we would impeach him.

I couldn’t let that slide

[JaPrado. @Dr_AustinOmondi]

Let us all use this day to contemplate our own biases and transgressions that have led us to this point as a country. We shall also remember those who died in 2024 protesting the finance bill. Tomorrow we go back to matters Caesar.

KTN has asked Ruto whether his week has 8 days that's why he hasn't gotten to May 2026😂😂

This station will finish Kasongo but you all know who I feel for the most because all the anger will be directed to them😂😂😂
