Update: Central Police Station OCS Chief Inspector Dishen Angoya, who was arrested over the release of 64 fuel price protest suspects, has been rushed to hospital after developing high blood pressure while in custody.

Almost 10 hours after Central Police Station OCS Chief Inspector Dishen Angoya reportedly complained that he was unwell and had high blood pressure, he was still locked up at Lang’ata Police Station. This is the same system that uses police officers to face angry citizens, then abandons them the moment political orders turn into personal liability. If this can happen to an OCS, junior officers should read the room very carefully.

Robnomics There is that old story in Apocalypto where man is given everything he needs, yet inside him remains a hole that can never be filled, and that is the perfect picture of this regime’s appetite. No amount of taxes, loans, levies, fuel hikes, electricity charges, school-fee pressure or public suffering seems enough, because every time Kenyans give more, the government behaves as if the country has given nothing. Ruto’s government has become a bottomless hole that keeps eating from every corner of the economy while pretending to offer relief. They reduce diesel by KSh10 to calm matatus, then increase kerosene to cover the gap...they borrow from the IMF to pay China, borrow from Europe to pay China, then return to ordinary Kenyans through fuel, bread, electricity, unga and every basic need. This is not economic management but Robnomics. The problem is that the hole is not really in the budget, it is in the greed and the arrogance of a regime that believes Kenyans exist only to be squeezed. Every “relief” is transferred to another suffering Kenyan, every promise of sacrifice becomes another robbery, and every new tax is swallowed without satisfaction because the hole was never meant to be filled. It was designed to keep eating.

Central police station OCS detained again after hospital visit.

Central Police Station OCS Chief Inspector Dishen Angoya is set to be charged with “abuse of office”.

Matatu strike, Day 2: Clear streets, most shops closed in the Nairobi CBD as Ashley Atieno reports. #FixingTheNationNTV @NationFmKE @ericlatiff @MariamBishar @blinkypenguin

Kenya’s government expects to collect KSh 6.3B in fuel VAT this cycle. Diesel: 4.5B, Petrol: 1.78B, and Kerosene: 40M. But every day this country shuts down, the government loses an estimated KSh 6.4B in non-payroll taxes. As such, yesterday’s shutdown alone likely wiped out the entire month’s fuel VAT collection. Add today and we are now at KSh 12.8B in lost revenue, more than double what fuel VAT was ever going to bring in. CS Mbadi and CS Wandayi need to immediately call on Parliament to scrap the 8% fuel VAT. Petrol drops to KSh 198.38, diesel to KSh 224.93, kerosene to KSh 141.46. It’s shocking to see government chasing KSh 6.3B while bleeding KSh 6.4B a day!

It's only in my country where matatu drivers can declare a public holiday.

Don't say anything. Just repost.

It's only a group of less than 5000 thugs, thieves and hooligans making life miserable and difficult for a population of more than 55m in Kenya. It has never made sense to me. Our docility will cost us a lot.

I suspect that phones may be barred from Tuesdays fuel stakeholders & government meetings😬

From the looks of things, Kenya might go the Nepal way anytime soon!!!

My brother Cornelius Chepsoi’s summation of GoK overtaxing Kenyans at every turn collapsing their businesses. It is reducing Kenyans to slaves in an untenable situation. Are Kenyans being offered as guineapigs to so called world ORDER of owning nothing!

You might think it’s a local full of drunk men arguing kumbe it’s men who are running the country led by a blogger

Gava wamejaribu mchezo wa taon on Matatu Owners not knowing they own this town. No deal and the strike is on. 😂😂

People daily is reporting that the 13th Parliament will allegedly go down in history as the most transactional, subservient, and detached assembly since the dawn of multiparty democracy.💀 You cannot even dispute this. I fear.

Yesterday was a clear prove that if we unite and speak one language of civil disobedience we can actually liberate our country

Guys next we are occupying this place

President William Ruto’s administration has just borrowed Sh2.6 trillion in domestic debt, pushing it from Sh4.4 trillion to Sh7 trillion since taking office.

These are the questions you posed then. Please answer the same to the people of Kenya on state capture and conflict of interest. |Video courtesy|
