Imara steel did not come to play with KRA.
There is a company called Imara steel. They cook metals to make mabati in Industrial Area, Nairobi.
In 2022, as they were busy cooking metals,
KRA was busy cooking their tax bill at Times Tower.
When KRA was done, what came out was 3.9B.
This bill covered 5 years.
- 2015, 2016, 2017,2018, 2019
Next morning, KRA airdropped the bill to Imara steel email.
When the director arrived at the office, the accountant stormed in. Akamsalimia. Then served him the bill even before chai.
The director looked at the numbers. He could not believe it. He thought his magnifying glasses were magnifying the numbers. He removed them.
He saw the same mad numbers live live.
• 3.9B.
He went nuts.
• Lesson 1: Never allow your accountant into your office before the tea person.
Director ordered the accountant to turn the fans on. There is no electricity. He is now worked up proper.
The accountant sneaked out.
And immediately embarked on a fault finding mission.
He came back with disturbing findings:
1. KRA was out of time for 2015 and 2016. Those years were beyond the 5 year statutory audit limit. Unless there is fraud. KRA had shown no fraud.
2. KRA had assumed 23% profit margins. Figures Imara had never achieved.
Wakasema baas. This is it.
They wrote an objection / protest letter to KRA. Explained everything. And demonstrated they had paid taxes to the last cent.
KRA could not hear any of it. They only wanted 3.9B.
In June 2022, KRA rejected the objection. And confirmed Imara must pay the 3.9B.
All this time, the accountant is not sleeping nor eating.
Amekanyanga tu wire.
Then something interesting happened.
KRA sent the rejection letter to the wrong email. And never realized.
So 60 days passed. No response is received from KRA.
Imara knew the law. If KRA does not respond within 60 days, your protest is deemed accepted.
They knew they had won. Director called the party.
Six months later, in Dec 2022, KRA came back with threats. We want the 3.9B. Pay or we freeze your bank accounts.
Imara responded: Guys, but you accepted our objection.
KRA said: Noo. We rejected it and emailed you. Here is the proof. Pay us up ASAP.
Imara looked at it and said: Guys, that is not our email.
Everyone at Times tower got shocked. How did that happen?
KRA said: OK the email was wrong. But tax is yours. Lipa.
As KRA is doing all this, they are unaware of two dangerous sentences in Kenyan tax law.
They read:
• KRA cannot audit past 5 years without proving fraud
• KRA must respond to objections within 60 days
Imara ran to court.
- Argued it cannot pay tax on rejection notices served out of time.
The tax appeal tribunal agreed the rejection letter was communicated to Imara out of time. But still asked Imara to bring fresh evidence to dispute the tax.
Later the Tribunal ruled the evidence was not enough.
• Imara was ordered to pay 3.9B.
KRA retreated to Times Towers celebrating.
Imara ran straight to the high court.
- It argued that it cannot pay tax out of rejection notices served to them out of time.
The judge looked at the case.
Then invoked the 2 dangerous sentences. You remember them?
- No audits beyond 5 years without fraud
- No rejection after 60 days
The judge sided with Imara.
- Imara was ordered to pay nothing.
- And KRA was ordered to pay legal costs to Imara.
Case closed.
Lesson 2.
• Everyone needs an accountant trained kukanyanga wire.
• KRA cannot audit beyond 5 years without proving fraud.
• If KRA misses the 60 days, call the party. You have won.

I ordinarily do not write angry-toned demand letters, I leave that to the newly admitted advocates still drunk on adrenaline. My style is different, I corner the other side, leaving them no choice, but to settle. Then we settle.
But this one? I had to put the fear of God into them. It deserved fury.
Someone, in their infinite foolishness, thought it acceptable to switch off a moving car on Thika Road because of a missed weekly payment. That level of arrogance and stupidity is appalling. That’s not enforcement, that’s attempted manslaughter disguised as debt recovery, compliance, or whatever. Well yeah, there is no offence known as "attempted manslaughter", but let's just instil fear of God in them.
Someone conveniently, without putting any thought into it, presses a button, and boom! Instant road carnage, Final Destination style.
Then you hear them say, “Oh, the system automatically locks the car when payment isn’t made.” Kwani hii ni simu ya Mkopa unalipia.
This criminal recklessness has been normalised as “policy” or “procedure” in this industry. I'm here to tell them that they do not toy with people’s lives over unpaid instalments. Nor do they weaponise technology to turn highways into death traps.
IF ANYONE EVER DISABLES YOUR CAR, whether it’s rented, leased, financed, or under a hire-purchase agreement, CALL ME. IMMEDIATELY. Nitawavuruga.
We’ll drag them through every legal corridor until they crawl back to the underworld they came from. We’ll litigate, we’ll escalate, and we’ll make an example so loud it sends shockwaves through every motor financing boardroom that thinks it can play God with other people’s lives.
Kenya deserves better. And if fear is the only language some of these institutions understand, then let us speak it fluently!

Freedom shouldn’t have a price tag. 💔
7 youths arrested on Saba Saba Day have spent months in jail because they couldn’t raise 300k bail.
Today, our legal team at @50MillionKe, fought and won- a review down to 30K.
We’ll keep standing with them till justice wins. ✊🏾

There’s a big part of me that honestly believes we deserve everything we get from these politicians. Because how do we keep watching the same people mess this country over and over again and still act surprised?
We have a generation that’s too comfortable letting Gen Zs fight for the country while they sit and comment from a distance. How are you in your late 30s, 40s, 50s okay watching your children or younger siblings fight battles for problems you helped create? You voted for thieves, defended them, campaigned for them, and when they get back in office you act like victims.
Look at what’s happening right now. Our lecturers are on strike. Students are stranded. Campuses are falling apart. But a whole CS is in another country praising their universities and lecturers as if ours don’t exist. How disconnected can you be?
Our healthcare system is collapsing. Hospitals have no medicine, doctors and nurses are exhausted and underpaid. When these politicians fall sick or want to give birth, they fly out for treatment instead of fixing the same hospitals they destroyed. They go to countries whose hospitals were built by LEADERS who cared about their people.
We have MPs passing harmful laws that directly affect the same people who voted for them. They show up, collect allowances, and disappear until the next campaign season. And still, we say “tutawafundisha lesson next election.” How many lessons have we taught so far?
Then there’s the Kenyan middle class. The most delusional ones, the ones who think national issues don’t concern them. As long as they have Wi-Fi, their kids are in private schools, and they can drive to work, everything else is “noise.” They don’t realize that the same system they ignore will come for them too :when taxes rise, when school fees double, when the economy finally collapses and insecurity rises due to lack of jobs for the “common” mwananchi…
We can’t keep outsourcing courage from Gen Z. Every generation that stays silent makes it worse for the next one. This habit of saying “minding my own business” is why nothing changes. Because those who created the mess never stay to clean it up.
And before we complain again, here’s the truth we actually have power, we just don’t use it.
We can recall MPs who betray the people, but we never do!! That’s why they’re comfortable saying they want to copy this and this from China coz they know you guys aint shit.. We can demand accountability, but we don’t..We can organize locally, but we wait for someone else to start
If we were serious, we’d start showing up for public meetings, asking questions, and refusing to clap for politicians who don’t deliver. We’d rebuild civic awareness and stop acting like politics ends at voting. We’d stand with those who are fighting instead of mocking them. And we’d vote with memory , not tribe, not token, not empty promises.
Because if nothing changes, one day your child will ask you what you did when this country was falling apart and silence won’t be a good enough answer.
For me, I will continue using my platforms no matter what 🚶🏾♀️🚶🏾♀️
