It's been a week since the Africa-France summit(Africa Forward summit) which French/Kenyan leaders have hailed as a success. However, last week at a time like this some African leaders including Rwanda's President Kagame, Botswana President Boko, Egypt's Foreign Minister and at some point someone shared a video with me of what looks like Africa's richest man Aliko Dangote struggling to get in/out of some of the meeting rooms because of scenes like this.

Mchezo wa taon. Members of Parliament have proposed relocating Nakuru State House to a different location away from the busy Nakuru–Nairobi highway. They cited security concerns, noting that a multi-storey hotel directly overlooks the presidential residence. Members of Parliament have flagged it as a serious breach of presidential security and zoning protocols. But here’s the gist: The Encore Hotel is owned by Sam Mburu, who allegedly acts as a proxy for Kasongo. The hotel was constructed last year. In fact, before Kasongo took office, no one was allowed to construct even a two-storey building near State House. But somehow, the government allowed Susan Kihika and her husband to put up a hotel with over ten floors. Statehouse Nakuru is now on sale.

Corruption, impunity and tribalism in Kenya will only stop when ex-presidents are prosecuted and jailed at Kamiti prison.

JOHN MBADI SHAME: TREASURY CABINET SECRETARY OR ODM PARTY OFFICIAL? 🔴 Why This Letter Is a Resigning Matter 🫆THE SMOKING GUN DOCUMENT ✅National Treasury CS John Mbadi Ng’ongo, on official Government of Kenya letterhead (Ref: TNT/CONF.CS/VOL.1), dated 12th May 2026, wrote to Kisumu Governor Prof. @AnyangNyongo and Senator @ProfOjiendaTom ✅The letter announces he will be in Kisumu on 15th & 17th May 2026 ✅Item 2 of his programme — underlined in red — reads: “Meeting with ODM county delegates in Kisumu on May 17, 2026 from 10.00am” ✅He signs the letter personally as Cabinet Secretary ⚖️ THE CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATIONS ✅Article 10 — National values and principles of governance require that all State officers act with patriotism, integrity, and transparency in the public interest — not partisan interest ✅Article 73(1)(a) — State officers must exercise authority in a manner that demonstrates respect for the people and brings honour to the nation — not advance party machinery using state instruments ✅Article 73(2)(b) — The guiding principles of leadership and integrity expressly prohibit use of public office for private gain or partisan advantage ✅Article 75(1) — A State officer shall not act in a manner that constitutes a conflict of interest — using the National Treasury letterhead and presumably state resources to organize ODM delegate meetings is a textbook conflict ✅Article 232(1)(f) — Public service values require impartiality and objectivity — a CS cannot be both the custodian of the national fiscus and an active ODM party mobilizer on duty 🧨 WHY THIS IS UNIQUELY GRIEVOUS ✅This is not a case of a CS attending a party event privately — he is announcing it on official letterhead, making it an official government communication ✅He is inviting a Governor to extend the invite to Members of County Assembly — using a Governor’s office as a party mobilization conduit funded implicitly by state resources ✅He copies Sen. Prof. Tom Odhiambo Ojienda, SC — the Kisumu Senator — on official Treasury correspondence about an ODM delegates meeting. The Treasury has zero business with ODM delegates ✅The use of Treasury reference number TNT/CONF.CS/VOL.1 means this letter was registered, processed, and filed in the official government registry — making this a documented misuse of public office ✅He thanks the Governor for “continued support” — language of a party operative, not a constitutional officer managing Kenya’s public finances 📢 WHAT MUST HAPPEN NOW ✅Mbadi must issue an immediate, unreserved public apology to Kenyans for this gross misuse of his constitutional office ✅He must refund any public resources — staff time, vehicles, security, logistics — deployed in organizing or attending the ODM delegates meeting ✅If he refuses to apologize, President @WilliamsRuto must act under Article 152(6) and remove him — a CS who cannot distinguish between his constitutional office and his party card has no business managing Kenya’s national finances ✅@NAssemblyKE Public Accounts Committee and relevant departmental committee should summon him to account for this breach ✅@EACCKenya should take note — this is the precise conduct Section 11 of the Leadership and Integrity Act, No. 19 of 2012 was designed to address 🔴 A man who uses the @KeTreasury letterhead to organize ODM delegate meetings is not a Cabinet Secretary who happens to belong to ODM. He is an ODM official who has accidentally been given the keys to the National Treasury. Kenya cannot afford that confusion — literally.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ it’s beyond what a political skunk can do!

Hey @Wavinya_Ndeti, our area MCA, Francis Kavyu, has sent me this video in response to my post. He claims you misappropriated Ksh 25 million allocated for a bridge connecting the Mountainview area and Kilili village. The children are suffering because the money was eaten.
The People’s President@bonifacemwangi

I live in Lukenya, Machakos County, less than 40 kilometres from Nairobi. Directly across from my home lies Kilili village — a place politicians flood every election season to beg for votes. The village has about 500 residents, including over 300 school-going children. It boasts more than 20 unlicensed bars, 15 churches, and just six police officers stationed at the nearby Lukenya Police Post. When it rains, a seasonal river floods and completely cuts off access to Mountainview Primary School, which sits on the opposite side of the village. The Kilili village is densely populated, with families renting houses while working at stone quarries and cement factories. Fewer than 20 people, including me, live on my side of the river. During the rains, I stay put because even vehicles cannot cross the flooded river. Meanwhile, young children are forced to miss classes, while others risk their lives trying to wade through the dangerous waters. The school also lacks running water, so pupils must carry their own for drinking and handwashing. Cement giants like @BamburiCement and @MombasaCement extract raw materials from our area, reap billions in profits, and contribute millions in levies to the county. Yet those levies come from the very parents whose children must wade through a river just to reach school — and who study without access to clean drinking water. This is not merely a weather problem. It is a glaring failure of leadership and service delivery. Machakos County’s budget for 2025/26 stands at KSh 10 billion. I am confident that Governor @Wavinya_Ndeti can resolve this issue in a single day — before a child drowns — just as Governor Sakaja swiftly fixed some roads in Nairobi ahead of French President Macron’s visit.

Emurua Dikirr UDA and DCP candidates addressed a joint meeting, urging all supporters to maintain peace now and up to the voting day. This is political maturity. Dikirr people have set the bar high on what political competition is all about. It is about their constituency first.

Emurua Dikir is a special Constituency. Here the UDA Candidate met with the DCP Candidate and both used the same platform and same Microphone to ask for votes, infact the DCP Candidate asked the UDA Candidate to vote for him. For them Dikir comes first.

The Constitution clearly outlines which roads fall under the county government and those under the national government. I therefore call upon the Ministry of Transport and Roads under the National Government to urgently take full responsibility for the maintenance of all roads under its mandate to ensure safe movement of people and goods, boost business activities, and enhance efficient transport services.

Ruth Odinga Message MY MESSAGE TO JOHN MBADI: THE ODINGA HISTORY IS LITTERED WITH SACRIFICES, NOT ENTITLEMENTS On the 4th of May, I attended an ODM Party retreat in Mombasa that brought together various party organs. Among those who attended were three out of five Cabinet Secretaries who were reportedly seconded to government by the Party as the ‘experts’ to help in running President William Ruto’s government. I attended this largely ‘Linda Ground’ function because like I have stated previously, I am neither Linda Mwananchi nor Linda Ground. I am for a one, united ODM Party – exactly what Raila Odinga left behind. I have not given up yet, and I am not about to do so. I was surprised that when Treasury CS, and immediate former ODM Chairman John Mbadi rose to speak, he chose to attack me, as an Odinga. He said ODM Party does not belong to the Odingas. That it is not a family property and therefore nobody should feel entitled because they carry the Odinga name. He stated further that Raila Odinga was already dead and buried, and even if he was to be alive, he wouldn’t do much because he (Mbadi) and others have heavily invested in the ODM Party. I say this was a personal attack because I looked around and I was the only Odinga in the room. My brother, the Party Leader Dr. Oburu Oginga did not attend the three-day retreat. Let me at the onset, for the avoidance of doubt, deal with a preliminary issue of the able leadership of Dr. Oburu Oginga. I have enormous respect and admiration for my eldest brother, Dr. Oburu Oginga. I have known him all my childhood almost like a father. I stayed with him as a child, and I know him very well, as a man of integrity who shares most of the political philosophy and ideology of our father Jaramogi and Raila Odinga. But, because he is very trusting and caring, some known persons in the party are exploiting these positive traits to for their selfish ends. Back to the Mbadi question. I could’ve let this pass because in politics you expect anything any time from any quarter. But I was worried that if someone like John Mbadi can choose to demonize the Odinga name and what Odingas stood for and still do, what would anyone else think of us? I, as an Odinga by biology and also ideological Odinga, believing in what Jaramogi and Raila stood for, cannot sit pretty and allow this to pass without setting the records straight. It is evidently clear that there are some elements within the ODM Party who think that some of us ‘entitled people’ have been clinging on the Odinga name for political survival. Specifically, I wish to address John Mbadi as follows: 1. It is not the ODM Party that made Raila Odinga. It is the people of Kenya who made him who he was in life, and even in death because of what he stood for, and out of that he and others made the ODM party. There were other parties before ODM. And he moved with the people. And if you have forgotten what Raila Odinga stood for, some of it, captured in the ten-point agenda he signed with President Ruto will help. Yes, he is dead and buried like Mbadi said it. But his followers are not dead, nor his ideology. It is easier to inherit the party or anything else Raila Odinga left behind, but you have to earn the support of his followers not by coercion and other forms of inducements. 2. In 1982 following the abortive coup, there was a serious government crackdown on anyone with the Odinga name. I, Ruth Odinga, was not spared. I went into exile. To Uganda, then Tanzania, Zimbabwe and later Norway. Where was the entitlement? John Mbadi has seen life in exile in the movies. Because of the Odinga name I carry, I lived the experience and it is not something you would wish for your worst enemy. 3. Travelling to Kenya with the Odinga name on my passport was such a nightmare. At some point I had to be accompanied by a Norwegian businessman and a friend who would ‘distract’ immigration officials at the JKIA so they would let me pass without much ado. Where was the entitlement? 4. When Raila Odinga was released from detention for a record third time in 1991, I was already an exile in Norway. With the possibility of re-arrest, it was decided that he needed to leave the country. When asked where he wanted to go, he chose Norway, where his sister, Ruth Odinga, was. Where was the entitlement in hosting a brother your government wanted dead? 5. I have been the loudest preacher of ODM unity. I have stated on several occasions that having the two factions will not help us in the long run. But out of excitement of holding a plum cabinet secretary position, Mbadi and others think the Odingas, and particularly Ruth Odinga, are the problem. Is this bashing of the Odingas the only way to guarantee him another 5 years as CS of Finance? It is in public domain that he, Mbadi, is demanding voters of Luo Nyanza to make a certain political choice or else he will be denied that extra 5 years as he has enjoyed the 2 or so years thus far. Is this the reason? Are the Odingas the obstacle to his joy? 6. Being an Odinga has meant that you have to work extra hard. As a younger sister of Raila Odinga, I was forced to shelve my political ambitions so as not to complicate Raila’s. In 2013, having won the party primary for Kisumu gubernatorial position, party honchos claimed I could not become governor of Kisumu, when my brother is seeking the presidency. So I was arm-twisted into the deputy governor position, with Jack Ranguma as the governor. In 2017 the same issue was raised and I ended up as a director in Governor Anyang Nyongo’s first term in office. When in 2022 several leaders were being handed direct party tickets, I refused. Because of the Odinga name I carry, I knew that a direct party ticket would be the end of my political career. So I went to the party primaries, made a spirited campaign and won. Then I faced other candidates at the general election. 7. I do not intend to use the Odinga name to seek favors. I will speak with the people. I will lay out my agenda for the people of Kisumu, and should they buy it, then they should clearly vote for me. If Mbadi and others in ODM have run out of ideas, Odinga name will not be the punching bag. And if I will need political support of true friends of Raila Odinga, I will look for them. I know where to find them. 8. So why do I say all these? I have a duty to protect the Odinga name from being devalued. I have detailed my personal history – exile, harassment at borders, and political sacrifices. I have given Kenyans enough reasons to trash Mbadi’s misleading entitlement narrative. This should be a stark reminder to the public that my family and other families in Kenya paid "blood tax" for the democracy the current leaders (like Mbadi) are now enjoying.
