1/ Ayoh ! Not sure if you are aware but there’s an actual Kenyan music chart that uses data which is verifiable and auditable. Think Billboard Top 100 - they monitor radio, streaming, and YouTube. Let me make a small thread 🧵 about what @sanaacharts does 👇🏾 see below:

MEDIA PRESSER ALLERT ‼️⚠️ We officially submitted our memorandum to Parliament on the Sovereign Wealth Fund Bill, 2026, because for a fund designed to protect "Future Generations," the current loopholes for executive interference are far too wide. The Core Issue: Who Holds the Keys? 🔑 The most critical concern we raised is the management and control of the Fund. As currently drafted, the Bill creates a "Shadow Treasury" risk by allowing: • Executive Capture: A Board dominated by government nominees rather than independent experts. • Vague Authority: Dangerous ambiguity over whether the Cabinet Secretary or the Board truly controls withdrawals. • Political Misuse: Provisions that could turn our national savings into an election-season cash reserve. The revenue from our minerals and oil belongs to the people, not a single office. We are demanding an independent Board that includes voices from the National Youth Council and the Senate to ensure that "Urithi" (our future heritage) is never used for recurrent debt or political projects. 📢 STAY TUNED: We are hosting a presser at 10:50AM to dive into the specifics of our submission. Don’t let the technical jargon hide the truth about who will really manage your money. STAY TUNED FOR THE LIVE PRESSER 🚨 #FiscalDiscipline #DebtAccountability #SovereignWealthFund #OkoaUchumi #SocialAccountability

#Genz are watching...

The demonstrations of 2024 were an assertion of this possibility, a refusal to accept the inevitability narrative. They were suppressed, but the questions they raised remain. Can we imagine an economy that serves the people who inhabit it rather than external creditors? Can we conceive of fiscal policy as an instrument of social welfare rather than extraction? Can we challenge the state of affairs we have accepted up to now?

Microsoft even disabled the ICC Chief prosecutor Karim Khan and his team's email accounts on behalf of Israel. Francesca Albanese was cut off from all her bank accounts; unable to open new ones or use/ get credit cards. When you confront them, they will come at you for everything, from every angle— to discredit and silence you. They control the banking systems through which money flows globally, whether through financial institutions or intermediaries like Stripe. When the US sanctioned Albanese last year, it wasn't just her money that was frozen— her hotel bookings were cancelled, her health insurance refused to reimburse her, she couldn't even use most apps. Even the Christmas gifts her 13-year-old daughter received were sanctioned. And she was reprimanded only after she began focusing her attention on the powerful American corporations complicit in funding and enabling the genocide in Gaza. She wrote letters to 48 companies, universities and financial institutions notifying them that they were complicit in and profiting from a genocide— the Trump Administration instantly moved to punish her. They have infiltrated and can manipulate every facet of your existence in ways beyond your wildest imagination. They will try to exploit every component of your life in order to make it work against you. Remain cognizant of this in every aspect of what you think is your *private* life. They don't just control the weapons that kill, but the algorithms on your phone that can be used to dictate your life as well.

Wasani wote sio wa state house buana. Yesterday we held a creative caucus at @BarazaLab. Should artists have a political stand? Should artists be pro people or pro politicians? Can we elect celebrities? Why cancel culture? yuts 122 waliregister Jana btw. Tuko kadi

They've engineered the silence because they fear you more than they fear any judge. An informed public is their worst nightmare. So read the filings. Track the hearings. Ask the hard questions. The @IMFAfrica @KeTreasury, @NAssemblyKE, and every pen that signed these loans must answer. Some politicians waiting in the wings will not speak because they hope to inherit the same broken system. To those seeking office: this is a test of principle. You cannot inherit a system you refuse to question. We don't need their headlines to know our rights. The Constitution didn't give us a voice to whisper. The front page isn't theirs to give. It's ours to demand. Stay loud. Stay informed. The law is on our side #OdiousDebtKenya #PeoplePower #DeniBandia

Kenyan long-distance runner Sabastian Sawe has returned home to a hero’s welcome after becoming the first person to run a marathon in under two hours. Al Jazeera’s Catherine Soi spoke to fans in Nairobi when he arrived who say Sawe’s inspired them to pursue their dreams.

Israel can seize boats in international waters, a thousand kilometers away, and detain civilians with barely a whisper from Western media.
