This headline by The Standard is not just misleading, it is a deliberate distortion of facts to fit a familiar anti-state narrative. You cannot compare Sh693 million per kilometre from earlier SGR phases with up to Sh1.75 billion per kilometre for the Naivasha-Kisumu-Malaba extension and pretend it is the same project. It is not. The first figure comes from Mombasa-Nairobi and Nairobi-Naivasha, built largely on flatter terrain, under concessional financing, and with limited auxiliary infrastructure. The extension, on the other hand, is a far more complex corridor, cutting through escarpments, valleys, and unstable ground across western Kenya, requiring extensive bridges (79 major railway bridges, with a combined length of about 42-43 km), tunnels (8 tunnels, total length 14.26 km) viaducts, culverts (460 culverts) and heavy engineering works. More importantly, the higher figure being sensationalised is not just the railway line. It is a full corridor investment that include land compensation, stations (28 stations), inland depots, signalling systems, and integration with Kisumu Port and regional logistics. That is why the total project cost is projected at about Sh500-650 billion, a comprehensive infrastructure ecosystem, not just tracks on the ground. Then there are the economic realities The Standard conveniently ignores. Since the first SGR phase, - The Kenyan shilling has depreciated significantly - Global construction costs (steel, fuel, labour) have risen sharply - Financing has shifted from purely concessional loans to blended and commercial structures, which include interest and risk costs All these factors naturally push up the per-kilometre figure. That is basic infrastructure economics and not necessarily a scandal. What we are seeing here is a classic case of false equivalence of taking two different phases, with different terrain, scope, and financing, and forcing a comparison to manufacture outrage. This is why The Standard has built a reputation for being consistently and notoriously anti-state in its framing, prioritising shock headlines over honest context. They opposed the SGR before it was built. They questioned it during construction. Today, they ignore its impact on freight efficiency and regional trade, only to recycle the same skepticism dressed as 'new revelations.' Facts matter. Context matters. And Kenyans deserve better than headlines designed to mislead rather than inform.

Many girls have reportedly been r@p£d and m0l£sted by men in Ozoro during what is being described as a “r@p!ng festival” in the area. According to multiple reports and videos circulating online, today is said to be the day of this festival in the Ozoro community, and girls are wvrned not to go outside. It is alleged that any girl seen outside could be att@ck£d and r@p£d by groups of men. Foreigners who are unaware of this situation have reportedly fallen v!ctim as well. There is Delta state university in Ozoro, and many female students may not be fully aware of the d@nger. It is distvrbing that something like this could be tolerated in society. This is heartbreaking, and urgent action needs to be taken.

No matter how you condemn this act, no matter how archaic you think it is, even if it is not scientifically proven, I can tell it to you for free that it works. I've used it, I've sent and heard testimonies,my grand mother used it, my mother also and I am also passing it to my children. This sh!t works for cattarh and cold in children and adult.
