Jimi Wanjigi: We got here because of theft. During Moi’s time, out of every 100 shillings, 30 shillings was going to the payment of debt. So he had 70 shillings to run the government, do development, and pay salaries. Kibaki, by the time he handed over to Uhuru, of his 1 trillion and 2 trillion of debt, 18 shillings was going to debt payment. He had 72 shillings that was actively running government operations, which is why people say Kibaki’s budget was debt-free. When Uhuru handed over to Ruto, 65 shillings was going to debt payments. The government started borrowing for recurrent expenditure, no more for development and that is illegal in our laws. Now, where we are this year, 92 shillings of every 100 is going to the payment of debt. We are dying #CitizenSundayLive

RECALL OF PARLIAMENT FROM RECESS - FUEL PRICES: Following our proposal to amend various laws with the aim of reducing fuel prices, we have written to the Speaker of the National Assembly with a request to recall the house from recess at the earliest, preferably Monday to process the various proposed amendments. We have proposed amendments as below; Amendment on the VAT act to reduce VAT on fuel Products from 8% to Zero thereby making Petro, Diesel and Kerosene VAT exempt. This will save Kenyans Ksh 15.87 and Ksh 17.99 on Super Petro and diesel respectively. Reduction of RMLF by Ksh 7 through the revocation of the Road Maintenance Levy Fund (Imposition of Levy) Order, 2024. The proposal on additional Ksh 5Bn subsidies for Diesel does not necessarily need Parliamentary approval. All these proposals can reduce the Price by an acceptable margin and avert damaging inflationary effects to the economy. Thank you. We are African and Africa is our Business..

Trade Cabinet Secretary Lee Kinyanjui has revealed that the Sh23.5 billion county industrial parks programme was started without feasibility studies, and only relied on President Ruto’s meetings with ‘mama mbogas’ and ‘hustlers’ demands during Kenya Kwanza’s 2022 manifesto process.

If there is one group of Kenyans that deserves daily praise, it is the Office of Auditor General. Because I can tell you - it must a lot of work to main sanity after you see the level of criminality, plunder, and wastage happening in government. Take a look at what is happening in @Kakamega_037 A county with a 40% poverty rate. That county can apparently afford to send a team to a Human Resource summit in Rwanda. Send 7 people to a cultural festival in Uganda. Send 10 people to Malaysia to learn all about "Governance and Good Practices." 23 people to Uganda for "games". Another team back to Uganda for more "games." A team of 4 people to Rwanda, for, "Early Childhood Development" seminar. Back to Malaysia for "legislative practices". This is how Kakamega ends up spending KSH 524 million on travel, in a year where the county spend, an unbelievable KSH 1.7 million on bursaries in the entire county. Can you believe that? KSH 524 million on 100% wasteful travel. KSH 1.7 million on bursaries, in a county with a poverty rate of 40%. The Governor, @BarasaFernandes is a CPA - who cannot comprehend math. What a shame!

Aramco reported a quarterly profit of $33b as Safaricom reported an annual profit of KES 100B. According to King'eero Institute analyst, Wangathika Thuu, this means Aramco made Safaricom annual profit in slightly over 2 days. Lanes!

Africa's Digital Dream Runs Into a Massive Power Wall A $1 BILLION geothermal-powered data centre in Kenya by Microsoft and UAE’s G42 has stalled. President William Ruto blamed inadequate power capacity. “To switch on that one data centre, we would need to shut off power for half the country,” he said. This single project requires 1,000 Megawatts, a figure representing 33.3% of Kenya’s entire grid capacity according to the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority. Beyond Kenya, replicating this ambition across the continent presents a staggering challenge. If every one of Africa’s 54 nations built two such facilities, the continent would bring online 108,000 Megawatts of new, dedicated power. The International Renewable Energy Agency notes that Africa currently possesses an installed capacity of approximately 245 Gigawatts and generates 900 Terawatt-hours annually. To fuel these 108 centres, Africa would have to expand its total generation capacity by 44%. Such an expansion demands immense capital. With the World Bank estimating construction costs for renewable energy at $2,000 to $4,000 per kilowatt, the generation alone would cost between $216 billion and $432 billion. These figures exclude the trillions of dollars required for essential grid and transmission upgrades. Despite these hurdles, Africa’s digital future remains active. However, while energy bottlenecks hinder massive hyperscale sites, developers have focused on smaller edge data centres that demand less from fragile grids. Cities like Lagos, Nairobi, Johannesburg, and Cape Town already host thriving clusters of these facilities, while newer hubs emerge in Addis Ababa, Dar es Salaam, and Djibouti. 📸The Teraco data centre in Ekurhuleni, Johannesburg,  SA.

Governor Irungu Kang’ata: When Uhuru Kenyatta was the president, he came up with the ESP markets, one is in Githurai, it expended about 800 million and up to now, no one trades there. I think Kenyan traders prefer an open market. It would have been better to deploy that money into opening up urban roads in those markets. Personally, I strongly believe some of these resources would have been sufficient to give free secondary day school in Kenya #CitizenSundayLive

A Kenyan by the name Elias Wekesa has taken Safaricom to court, and every Kenyan should pay attention. He says Safaricom deactivated his line after it stayed inactive for a few months, then reassigned it to another person. When he tried using it again, he was met with a shock. The number was gone. Worse, he says he could no longer receive OTPs from his bank and other platforms tied to that number. This case matters because it touches every Kenyan. Because your phone number is no longer just a number. It is tied to your bank account. Your email. Your work accounts. Your private life. The moment that number is handed to someone else, the risks begin. OTPs can go elsewhere. Recovery codes can land in another person’s hands. Account alerts can reach a stranger. That person is not just holding a SIM card. They may be holding access to parts of your digital life. And if they have bad intentions, the damage can be immediate. And for families who have lost loved ones, it cuts even deeper. A parent’s number. A sibling’s number. A loved one’s number. One day, it holds memories. The next day, it belongs to a stranger. This is why Safaricom must be forced to create stronger safeguards before reassigning numbers. Because in today’s world, a phone number is not disposable. It is identity. And identity should never be reassigned without protection.

@Bossyator Due to Double Taxation Agreements, he won't be taxed again in Kenya on the same income. He has been taxed in the UK on 20-30% of his gross earnings, amounting to between $71,000 and $106,500 (approx. KSh 9.2 million to KSh 13.7 million). 🥴
