@amembamagufuli8 This country is a joke

Sakaja who was being sought by police arrives in parliament driving himself, And the police who were looking for him are opening the parliament gate for him

@MwangiBonnie It is really sad, we are sinking and the majority of although they are feeling the pain of the state of the economy, most don't know that a hurricane is coming.

In 2024-2025, our counties had KSH 533 billion to serve Kenyans. In terms of services, and development. You know, the entire point of devolution. Here is the record of what they did. (1) For every two shillings they spent, one went to their pockets. "They" here refers to the people in government. They are roughly 1% of the entire county population - in any county. But they took one shilling for every two on the table, and left one to serve the remaining 99% of us. And put it in their pockets. (2) For every shilling they spent on bursaries, they spent KSH 49 on themselves in salaries. Salaries alone. (3) They spent KSH 16 billion on travel. They spent KSH 1 billion on cars for MCAs and Governors. (4) For every shilling they spent on bursaries, they spent nearly 4 shillings on travel. (5) 43 out of 47 counties spent more money traveling than they spent on bursaries. (6) 14 counties spent ZERO on bursaries. (7) The average Governor took home an income that is 62 times what the average citizen made in 2024-2025. But these are just average figures. In @WajirKE - the Governor's income was 140 times what the average citizen made in Wajir County that year. (8) The average MCA took home an income that is 10 times what the average citizen made in 2024-2025. Again, that is average. In Wajir, an MCA took home 22 times what the average citizen made. Here is the point: 50% of KSH 533 billion, going to 1% of the County Population, is insanity. It is suicidal, economically. It is barbaric. It is unfair. It is immoral. And, it is unsustainable. The average County Government loses 10% of its budget to about 47 MCAs. Some Governor's and Deputy Governors' offices are taking 20% or more of the County Budget. I know it sounds insane, but am telling, we are in trouble. Let me show you something. Look at the second attachment here. It is a summary of money spent by @Baringo_county in 2024-2025. Out of about KSH 7 billion in budget, the Governor's office put aside: KSH 4 billion. For that office. And, for the County Assembly? KSH 800 million. That is close to 70% of the entire budget in the hands of 47 human beings. Meaning, the Governor, Deputy, and the 45 MCAs. If the point of devolution still remains service and development to citizens, this cannot continue. How can it be that the Governor's office has a large budget than: The Department of Roads; The Department of Economic Planning; And, Almost 10 times the budget of the Department of Health? This is crazy, guys. It's bonkers. This cannot be devolution. @Senate_KE @NAssemblyKE @MoGAbdi @FlavNasmbu @EricLatiff

@Alfayaz11 @Shibalirajacque This is a question I have been asking, why dont the residents protest? like those guys in some village cant remember where, they planted bananas in the middle of the road and picketed till the MCA showed up.

@Shibalirajacque But surely even the residents don’t want to do anything? I mean how can you accept to live this way?

Sad! Annoying! #ReclaimNairobi @Alfayaz11

@WinterFairyEfeM @Nwinks6 @NigeriaStories You are very right, it will not end well, and the Nigerians are in Eastern Cape. The Xhosa nation.

@Nwinks6 @NigeriaStories My brother I’m honestly tired, the need to dominate never ends well, is so crazy to me that someone will go to another man’s land and want to grab everything over them. It’s greed and I condemn such act.

BREAKING: South African protesters have burnt vehicles and buildings belonging to foreign nationals in protest against the installation of a Nigerian king in Eastern Cape.

@N__Josephs Before I forget that budget for Cairo covers the city and the metropolitan area which around 3000 square kms. It is huge.

Nairobi's problem as a city is underfunding with a budget of 340 million USD for 696 km² supporting 5 million people. Cairo has 8.1 billion USD for 606 km², Addis Ababa 1.1 billion USD for 540 km², Cape Town 3.5 billion USD for 2461 km², Singapore 20 billion USD for 728 km².

@N__Josephs Funding is not an issue, even with what hase been budgeted, a third of what someone proposed we cannot see progress, adding money will not solve. The problem is systematic and political

The first vehicle recovered has been confirmed to belong to former Cabinet Secretary Raphael Tuju. Tuju’s family is expected to address the media at 3:00 PM at Entim Sidai, Karen, as concern grows over his whereabouts.

@DushiNjenga The structure should be gazzeted, like the McMillan Library on Banda Street.

@WilliamsRuto It will not be built

@thee_alfa_house This is illegal

The Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) has introduced new monthly fines targeting employers and loan defaulters who fail to comply with student loan repayment rules. This aims to recover over KSh100 billion in outstanding debt. ( MORE👇)

@ntvkenya Hehe, I cant believe

Governor Sakaja on building collapses: Those (developers) who are registered sign an indemnity to ensure that quality standards are maintained. We must continue being responsible. Tumekuwa tukisema haki yetu. Pia tuseme wajibu wetu.

@masomboriot @Kibet_bull Hehe

@Kibet_bull You don't mock someone who has lost a child. There are rules in all wars

Kamket who once said that he was willing to take bandits to kill Gen Z in Nairobi lost his son yesterday. We feel sorry and move on

@thee_alfa_house Malicious damage, 10 years

New details on the viral video of a woman smashing a matatu windscreen in Nairobi CBD reveal the incident stemmed from a personal dispute, not a KSh 900 fare change. The woman, Akinyi, a former partner of driver Juma, demanded KSh 14,000 for their daughter's upkeep and school fees. He paid KSh 10,000, triggering the escalation and vandalism. What do you think about this?

@moneyacademyKE This is very good.

PSC has set the retirement age at 70 for professors and research professors in public universities, and 75 for those with disabilities, effective immediately.

@newto_code_14 I think you are young, the previous Safari Rally was on dirt road routes mostly all over the Rift Valley. But I ca n see by the last sentence your point was not about the Safari Rally.

Kama hizo Naivasha ranches and conservancies hazingekuwa owned by greedy white settlers hatungekuwa tunaenjoy safari rally today, wagikuyu wangekuwa wamegeuza land yote 50×100 plots sai!

@mchepa_delta @SokoAnalyst Embus are not Kikuyus my fren

@SokoAnalyst What do u expect from kikuyus they vote with emotions

How do we elect such people and expect the country to move in the right direction? We must be crazy to be honest.

@PuritymMwangi @moneyacademyKE You are very right, fact.

@moneyacademyKE Interesting... Who really owns Sidian Bank today, and why is it increasingly attracting large government deposits? I hope what I'm thinking is wrong.

Sidian Bank continues attracting government deposits. In FY ended June 2025, KEMSA made its first deposit of Sh341 million, and CA made its first deposit of Sh203 million.
