Nakuru didn't come to play, a large battalion of police officers in Free Area was forced to retreat under the intense pressure of demonstrators.

Nyanya Imepanda Kuliko Ata Bangi 😬😂

Clearly, TIFA lied about the popularity of William Ruto. From Bomet to Nairobi to Busia to Chavakali, he has become so unpopular. Very unfortunate.

@HonMoses_Kuria Moses kuria save us your incompetence and arrogance. Why is our fuel the most expensive one?

One Person shot in Nakuru.

The Finance Bill, 2026 was published on 30th April and is now before Parliament and every Kenyan deserves to know what is in it. The government targets Ksh3.63 trillion in revenue for 2026/27 and a wider budget deficit of 5.3% of GDP in the 2026/27 fiscal year (July-June) up from 4.7% in 2025/26. These are not unreasonable fiscal objectives but the manner in which the burden of achieving them is distributed is a cause for serious concern. On tax filing timelines, the Bill moves the income tax return deadline to April 30th which is two months earlier than the current June 30th and compresses nil return filing to January 31st. This reduces the time available for audit completion, cash flow planning and compliance. For small businesses and individual traders, this is not administrative reform. It is an additional compliance cost they can ill afford. On mitumba, the Bill inserts a new Section 12H into the Income Tax Act which deems profit at 5% of customs value payable upfront before goods are released by KRA as a final tax. A trader importing a bale worth Ksh1 million pays Ksh50,000 regardless of whether they make a profit or a loss. I cannot in good conscience describe this as equitable.  The Bill increases residential rental income tax from 7.5% to 10%. Absent a serious enforcement framework, this will drive non-compliance rather than revenue. The government must fix the enforcement gap before it increases the rate. One without the other is burden-shifting. On digital financial services, the Bill removes existing VAT exemptions on money transfers and payment processing. These are the tools of financial inclusion that millions of Kenyans including the very people this government says it wants to reach rely on daily. Making them more expensive will not serve the objective of a broader tax base.  By including interchange and merchant service fees within the definition of management or professional fees for withholding tax purposes, the Bill introduces a compliance burden into automated banking processes. That burden will be passed on to businesses and ultimately to consumers. The amendment to Section 24 of the Income Tax Act empowers KRA to deem at least 60% of a company's undistributed income as dividends for tax purposes. This fails to account for legitimate decisions on reinvestment, working capital and business growth. It is a retrogressive measure that sends the wrong signal to the investors Kenya needs. A 25% excise duty on telephones for cellular and wireless networks is proposed. A phone is not a luxury. It is how Kenyans bank, communicate, conduct business and access government services. Parliament must interrogate this carefully. On PAYE, Kenyans were led to expect relief and a restructuring of the tax bands to ease the burden on salaried workers. That proposal does not appear in this Bill. That is not a minor omission. An explanation is owed to every employed Kenyan who was waiting for it. To be fair, the Bill is not without merit. The reduction of corporate tax for non-resident companies from 37.5% to 30% improves our investment climate. The extension of the tax amnesty to cover liabilities up to 31st December 2025 provides a genuine and welcome pathway to compliance. VAT exemptions on electric buses, bicycles, dialysers, animal feed raw materials and PPP infrastructure are sensible measures. The clarity introduced on trust taxation ensuring beneficiaries are not taxed on income already taxed at the trust level and the recognition of gratuity contributions as exempt income are also steps in the right direction. Be that as it may, we cannot afford a repeat of June 2024. Parliament must discharge its oversight role with the seriousness this moment demands. They should not merely rubber-stamp what the Treasury has placed before it. Every clause must be scrutinised. Every punitive or ambiguous provision must be rejected or amended. #FinanceBill2026 #PublicParticipation

@MwendiaJnr 2022 election was more of a defiance vote. The youthful politicians defied Uhuru and the veterans were wiped through the UDA wave. This explains why we have mostly a new breed of politicians easily manipulated by bribes and intimidation but not with the pple

@kakiige Not veteran per say but Senators and governors

Why is it that the “top” politicians from Murima aren’t close to the “Murima King,” Gachagua? The only governor who’s been close to him is the Nyeri governor, and even he has recently started moving away and is now working closely with the President. Apart from the young Nyandarua and Kiambu senators, the veteran politicians have been staying neutral since Gachagua’s impeachment. Is there something they’re not telling us?

@ItsMutai He represents courage (Ūcamba) - one of the blessings to a boy child upon birth. The extra ululation that separate boys from girls.

Gachagua is the most vile political bigot ever walked this land. When he speaks he always must associate Kikuyus with himself as if he is the Kikuyu community. How's his death going to hurt entire community? Just how? This one if he becomes President, other tribes will suffer

The make or break of @DCP_Democracy would be the party nominations especially in Nairobi and Murima and affiliated regions. The party must ensure they're free and credible.

@NytoP2PMwangi @DCP_Democracy nominations in murima will be as good as the August 10th Elections ifx conducted freely and fairly

Rigathi Gachagua is shameless man. 🤦 He has just dumped his Kiambu gubernatorial candidate, Wainaina wa Jungle, thrown him under the bus, and sold the ticket to the new highest bidder, John Mwaura, CEO of Finsco Real Estate. Wajungle has been told to go back to Thika Town or leave the party all together! Mind you, Wainaina wa Jungle has been with Gachagua since the DCP was established. He has stood by him through thick and thin. The man was alone in Mbeere North, facing off with police as votes were being tallied. He accompanied Gachagua on the USA trip, and there’s that famous photo with the earpiece where many speculated he was acting as a secret agent protecting Gachagua. Beyond that, he has been literally funding almost all DCP activities in Kiambu. Remember two weeks ago when Gachagua jumped on the “Tuko Kadi” campaign using DCP-branded convertible vehicles and SUVs? All those vehicles belonged to Wainaina wa Jungle. It was his project and initiative. Jungle is not just another politician. He nearly won the Kiambu gubernatorial election in 2022, but the UDA wave was so strong, especially since he ran as an independent. Wamatangi got 348,371 votes, while Jungle secured 237,361. None of the other candidates came close, Kabogo had 106,980, and the rest, including the then-incumbent James Nyoro, Moses Kuria, and Mwende Gatabaki, did not reach 100,000 votes. Have I mentioned that Wa Jungle’s PA, Theuri Wa Wanjiru, was nearly kílled by gøons about a month ago while fighting for DCP? He suffered extensive injuries, was stitched over much of his body, and spent several days in hospital. Rigathi Gachagua is not just greedy, this is pure cruelty. 🤦

If you're the guy driving the white car that was just hit at the junction of Thigiri Ridge Road & Redhill Road by a BLACK XTRAIL that took off, another car and I tried to chase it, we lost it near Rosslyn Riviera but here's its number plate: KCB 576M! I hope this helps! Pls RT

This is the biggest turnout ever. We've even convinced those who didn't bring their IDs to go back for them. Despite political infiltration, our aim of watu wakue Kadi is a success. Thank you Kitale. Tuko Kadi. Local mobilisation and TikTok work majamaa.
