Former Nakuru Governor Kinuthia Mbugua constructed more than 20 new health facilities between 2013 and 2017. One of these new facilities is the impressive 250-bed capacity Margret Kenyatta Mother Baby Wing which was built at a cost of Ksh550 million. It's the largest maternity hospital after Pumwani Hospital in Nairobi County in Kenya. Governor Mbugua was also working to establish a modern industrial zone in Naivasha. But Governor Mbugua would still lose his seat in 2017 general election. His plan to decongest Nakuru Town played a major role in his election defeat as it involved relocation of hawkers from the town centre. Many people will disagree with me on this but contrary to popular myth, Kenya has no shortage of great and wonderful leaders. They come in a dozen times. The problem is that the average common voter who wields the power to determine who gets into all that important position of public leadership has not the slightest clue of what leadership entails. His understanding of policy is as good as our understanding of why donkey manure comes in the shape of scones. That's the reason the likes of Mbugua gets shoved out of office despite laying solid grounds for growth. We have governors doing tremendous jobs despite all the hullabaloo that they're only thieving. Tana River Governor unveiled a great master plan that holds real promise for the residents of this vast county. When pictures of the ongoing works at Nyeri PGH were shared online, many people couldn't believe their eyes. It's not just former Gov Mutua or Kibwana or Oparanya. Transformational changes were happening in so many counties. Their stories are never shared and so we're blind to the changes happening beneath our noses. On the other hand, Wanjiku has attributed public leadership to harambee contributions, funerals attendance, joining haki yetu demonstrations- even when she's infringing on others rights, engaging in shouting matches at public rallies and generally engaging in vituko na sarakasi za kisiasa. How the likes of Sudi joined Parliament should be a chapter in the study of how homo erectus evolved into homo sapien. Sunny Bindra is a Sunday Nation columnist who has argued more than one can keep count of that to put things right in this country, ruthless and painful reforms must be instituted. It's not about what Wanjiku thinks is right, it's what is right. Wanjiku is actually the real enemy of reforms in this country. She wants clean leaders without a single trace of corruption, but she demands to be bribed to cast her vote by whoever lays claim to leadership. It's time we stopped mollycoddling Wanjiku. Joseph Stalin might have been a murderous dictator whose thirst for human blood was insatiable. But - and for something Russians will eternally be grateful to him for - he transformed a backward agrarian society into a modern scientific and industrial power in a matter of just fifteen years. Such ruthlessness is what will change our society. The coming generations will care less about the democracy we like singing about today if the nation we'll bequeath them will be an economic basket case.

Court Rejects COFEK Bid to Withdraw US-Kenya Health Data Sharing Agreement petition: Justice Nyaundi has upheld Katiba Institute's objection to COFEK’s application to withdraw Constitutional Petition No. E809 of 2025, which challenges the constitutionality of the Health Data Sharing Agreement between Kenya and the United States. COFEK had informed the Court that it had entered into a consent with the Government. In response, our Counsel, @joshuamalidzo , submitted that there can be no consent to constitutional violations, and that constitutional petitions cannot be withdrawn by consent where the alleged violations persist. Secondly, counsel argued that the Petition was filed in the public interest and is not the sole property of COFEK; any member of the public may prosecute it. In upholding this objection, Justice Nyaundi held that courts must retain control over constitutional petitions filed in the public interest, and that a notice of withdrawal may be declined where the Court is persuaded to do so. In this case, Senator Okiya had already indicated his willingness to prosecute the petition alongside his own Petition No. E816 of 2025, and the Court allowed the matter to proceed to its conclusion. We welcome the Court’s reasoning, as it affirms the jurisprudence on Public Interest Litigation in Kenya, holding that constitutional petitions are vehicles of constitutional accountability. The Consolidated Petitions will be heard on 25 May 2026 before Lady Justice Nyaundi. .@OkiyaOmtatah

The ongoing High Court impeachment proceedings against former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua present a critical moment to interrogate the strength of Kenya’s constitutional architecture. At its core, impeachment is not merely a numbers game; it is a quasi-judicial process anchored in the Constitution. This means that both the National Assembly of Kenya and the Senate of Kenya are bound by the principles of procedural fairness, including adequate notice of charges, the right to be heard, and the opportunity to challenge evidence. Equally important are the substantive thresholds. The Constitution does not contemplate removal on the basis of political disagreement or public sentiment, but on specific, provable grounds such as gross violation of the Constitution or gross misconduct. The evidentiary burden must therefore rise above conjecture and partisan rhetoric. This process will ultimately test whether impeachment in Kenya functions as a constitutional safeguard or degenerates into a political tool. In the end, fidelity to the rule of law, not political expediency, must carry the day.

In Garissa Town, there are reports of brewing violence targeting people perceived as Nywele ngumu. A few rogue individuals have allegedly been attacking and in some cases, killing non-Somalis. In an area known as Bula Medina, a woman identified mkamba was reportedly attacked, raped, and stabbed. Her husband, together with neighbors who attempted to assist her, were also assaulted and are currently recuperating at Garissa Referral Hospital. These attacks against non-Muslims have reportedly been ongoing for some time, with some individuals even using social media to incite others, telling non-Muslims to return to their ancestral homes based on the belief that Garissa belongs exclusively to somalis. The picture below shows the County Commissioner visiting the victims. He is also said to be among those being targeted by the same rogue elements, who claim they do not want non-Somali commissioners, police officers, or OCS personnel in their areas. But my question is, are these people ready for nywele ngumu retaliation if we decide to go that route. Somalis are good people, but you see these imbeciles that came from Somali & issued with IDs illegally, they're terrorists & we are very ready for them. If this nonsense doesn't stop, very soon Kenya might turn into South Africa. Chesaa!!

Court has warned KRA to go for real thieves, not NIL filers. There is a company called Kapwell Enterprises Limited. Their business is not complicated. They sell cargo clearing and forwarding services. When they started, they had no one to show them mashimo. They only had hope and determination. They hit the road. 2013, no deal. 2014, zero deal. 2015, no nothing. Kazi ni kufile tu NIL returns. As the director was busy tarmacking and accumulating tiny stones under his shoe heels, Some crooks had stolen & were busy importing goods using Kapwell’s KRA PIN. In 2018, Kapwell has known mashimo. They are minting real money. KRA notices. They decided to audit. Checking their internal customs system, they discovered that Kapwell’s PIN had imported goods worth 25M in 2013 and 2014. Yet they had filed NIL returns faithfully. KRA went mad. They took the 25M, added a fictitious 20% profit margin, computed income tax, VAT, penalties and interest, and slapped Kapwell with a tax bill of 11M. Next morning at 3am, the director akagurumuka. He reached for his phone to check time. Saw an email notification. Hoping it was a client, he opened it. Bahati mbaya, it was KRA. Delivering the bill. Sleep ended instant. • Lesson 1: usiku wacha simu sitting room. At dawn, without even taking tea, he rushed to KRA to report a system error. Akaambiwa ndugu keti. He was shown mad numbers on the screen. He swore he had never imported such goods. KRA wakamwabia hii utalipa. He ran to the police and reported a case of identity theft. Got an OB number. Took it back to KRA and asked them to investigate who had used his company PIN. He even gave them a list of competitors he suspected. He then served KRA all of his bank statements. They were all zeros for those years. But KRA could not hear any of it. As KRA is doing all this, it is unaware of one dangerous sentence chilling quietly in Kenyan tax law. It reads: • KRA SHALL make inquiries into all tax issues raised by a taxpayer. Make sure to underline the word SHALL. MANDATORY. KRA did not investigate. Their position was: • PIN ni yako. 11M ni yako. Lipa. Frustrated, he ran to court. The Tribunal asked KRA: Where is your investigation report? - KRA said hakuna. Tribunal invoked the one dangerous sentence. You still remember it? • KRA SHALL make inquiries. Tribunal ruled that the word SHALL is MANDATORY. Tribunal concluded Kapwell was a victim of identity theft. 11M tax was set aside. You would think that is the end. Noo. KRA retreated to Times Tower swearing: 11M haiwezi enda hivo. Aje? They appealed to the High Court. In court, Kapwell was asked: Why don’t you want to pay tax under your PIN ndugu? He responded: My lord, I have no problem paying taxes. But not for goods I never bought, never touched, and never sold. The good judge asked him: What do you mean? He responded: My Lord, if you owe your landlord 100K. You take the 100k bundle to his office and hand it to him. As he starts counting, a thief storms in, orders everyone down, and in the confusion the landlord throws the money back at you. The thief grabs it and disappears. Have you paid rent or not? The court went silent. The judge asked him: Kapwell what are you saying? He replied: My Lord, who should the landlord pursue for the money? You the tenant or the thief? Judge removed his spectacles. Paused. Then sided with Kapwell. The 11M tax was set aside. KRA wakaambiwa waende watafute wezi wawalipe. Case closed. Lesson 2. • KRA cannot tax a victim of identity theft. • KRA must go for the real beneficiary thief.

Ah, Kenyan politics: where a crowd’s authenticity is judged by the size of the brown envelope. They brand Senator Edwin Sifuna “overrated” for pulling university students. Adorable. Other leaders hire zombies in branded kit to stand mute and clap like malfunctioning robots. Sifuna’s lot actually scream “Ruto Wantam” with genuine rage and lungs. That’s not a rented crowd—it’s a hostile takeover by the future.“Wantam” isn’t diplomatic poetry. It’s crude Sheng, short, sticky, and sharper than any 40-page manifesto. Voters bin policy papers but tattoo slogans in their heads. Marketing 101, executed brutally. A leader who rents silent crowds is a statesman. A leader whose “rented” crowds are tomorrow’s voters? Dangerous radical. Sifuna isn’t flawless, but he roars while others whisper sweet nothings for tenders. The system doesn’t fear loud mouths—it fears loud mouths that actually echo in the streets. Wantam. Simple. Viral. Terrifying.

Kisumu is a Tutam zone ONLY the AI photos shared by Linda Mwananchi team will not translate to votes. The few who came to see Linda mwananchi team is the case of an hyena and a sheep in a market day.

Perfectly articulated! COA's ruling was topnotch.
Korimbas@OdiwuorKorimbas

The starting point is the Constitution which is quite clear that life begins at conception, and the right to life is protected. From that, Article 26(4) does not create a free-standing entitlement to terminate pregnancy. It carves out narrow, medically grounded exceptions like emergency treatment, or where the life or health of the mother is in danger. Properly read, that clause operates as a limitation within the right to life framework, not as a parallel, autonomous right. Calling it a “right to abortion” blurs that structure and ignores the Constitution’s deliberate prioritisation of life, subject only to tightly defined safeguards. A useful analogy is the question that was put forth to @ahmednasirlaw, SC by Lady Justice Njoki Ndungu on whether there exists a “right not to vote.” I borrow his argument that the Constitution in that context guarantees the right to vote, abstention is a practical choice, but not a separately enshrined right. In the same vein, what Kenyan law recognises is a right to life with limited exceptions, not a general right to abortion. Once that limitation is invoked under Article 26(4), then that person becomes automatically entitled to all forms of medical care that comes with that permitted abortion by virtue of Article 43(1)(a) which covers reproductive health care. The high court in this case might have went overboard by establishing a non-existent right; CoA is spot on!

That boy circled in green is Peter Edung. Fourteen years old. From Sosian Village, Laikipia North. From a family that has very little, except now they have even less. They have a funeral to plan. Peter went to visit his uncle, a casual worker at Oldonyo Lemora Ranch. The ranch is owned by Ivan Tomlinson, a British - Kenyan dual national. It's the kind of place where tourists pay good money to forget the world exists. Peter didn't go there as a tourist. He went there to see family. He never came back. According to police reports, the incident occurred on the night of April 21, 2026. A firearm was discharged. Peter sustained fatal injuries. The weapon, a Mark Four CZ 527 rifle, was licensed to Ivan Tomlinson. The person police have named in connection with the shooting is Lance Tomlinson; the 15-year-old son of the ranch owner. One teenager shot another teenager. One is now at Rumuruti Funeral Home. The other is... not in custody. Probably watching Netflix somewhere. The suspect is unaccounted for. The System is "Moving." Here's what we know so far, based on publicly available information. Ivan Tomlinson, the father and firearm owner, reported to the DCI offices in Laikipia West on Thursday. He came with legal representation. He recorded a statement. He was subsequently released on cash bail of KSh 100,000 for the alleged offense of allowing a minor access to a firearm, contrary to the Firearms Act. Meanwhile, the juvenile suspect; Lance Tomlinson has not yet been formally apprehended. Police have stated that efforts to trace him are ongoing. I hope we are together up to that point. A 14-year-old boy is dead. A firearm registered to a British man was involved. The father has been questioned and released on bail. The son named in connection with the shooting is still at large, and the official word is that the search is at "an advanced stage." We are not investigators. We are not the court. We simply note the sequence of events and ask: If the roles were reversed, would the pace be the same? Multiple sources have indicated that the young suspect was taken to Nanyuki Cottage Hospital for what has been described as a mental health assessment. We do not know the medical history of the individual involved. We do not know the legitimacy or necessity of such an assessment. That is for medical professionals to determine. But here is what we can observe: When a poor Kenyan teenager is named in connection with a violent crime, the path is generally direct; arrest, cells, court. There is rarely a private hospital visit in between. Whether this assessment is standard procedure or something else, the public is watching. And the question is fair: Is this healthcare, or is this strategy? This tragedy did not happen in a vacuum. It happened in Laikipia; a county where land, identity, and justice have been tangled for over a century. More than half of Laikipia's land mass is occupied by large private ranches and wildlife conservancies. Many of these are owned by families of British descent; descendants of settlers who remained after independence. Meanwhile, pastoralist communities who once moved freely across this landscape have, over generations, been squeezed into ever-smaller parcels. Peter Edung was not part of any conflict. He was a 14-year-old boy. He was from an extremely poor family. He was visiting his uncle, a casual laborer, on a ranch his ancestors may once have walked freely. And now he's dead. We do not know all the facts of that night. We do not know what led to the discharge of the weapon. We do not know the full story and we may never know it completely. But we do know the context. And context matters. Where Are the Leaders? This is the part that should disturb every resident of Laikipia County.

No kidding…. It is a sobering indictment of our current reality. From Western Kenya, North Rift, Nairobi, Central, Coast etc… it has been a shocking experience. It soon became a template expectation from place to place. And to think that these are people that you are trying to work with for some regular source of income, it is just heartbreaking.

The Small Claims Court (Amendment) Bill 2026 is intended to correct the contradictions between the Act and the Rules and to integrate the conflated High Court interpretations on the jurisdiction of the Court. Some of the key proposals I found interesting include: •Introduction of a downloadable demand letter template to be filled by the Claimant and served on the Respondent • Introduction of arrest and detention as a new method of execution • Exclusion of material damage suits from the jurisdiction of the Small Claims Court • Authority for the High Court to transfer matters to the Small Claims Court either from itself or the Magistrate Court. • Power for one Small Claims Court to transfer matters to another Small Claims Court • Empowerment of the Small Claims Court to enter default judgment where a Respondent fails to enter an appearance • Requirement that all evidence before the Court be tendered under oath • Notable revisions to the figures in the Advocates’ Remuneration Order (ARO)
