@smutoro All public universities should close all satellite universities and concentrate their resources at their main campuses. Why should we have Kenyatta university Mombasa, Nairobi CBD etc

William Ruto’s mixed bag of legacy as 8 key parastatals run insolvent … 🫆10+ parastatals and 21 universities operating on losses, unable to meet financial obligations 🫆KNBS reports sluggish economic growth of 2.8% in 2025, down from 4.3% in 2024 🔴 Key Agencies in Distress 🫆KRA — current liabilities exceed assets (Ksh1 billion negative working capital) 🫆KNH — technically insolvent; deficit of Ksh2.68 billion; may not meet obligations when they fall due 🫆KFS — current liabilities of Ksh5.6 billion vs assets of Ksh3.9 billion; negative working capital of Ksh1.7 billion 🫆NCPB — current assets Ksh24.3 billion vs liabilities of Ksh27.4 billion; board made a loss of Ksh992.3 million 🫆Postal Corporation — negative working capital of Ksh6.8 billion; continued existence dependent on government/bankers 🫆NYS — negative working capital of Ksh55 billion; Ksh16.4 billion in pending historical bills — Recall the Anne Waiguru scam? 🫆National Oil — current liabilities exceed assets by Ksh8.8 billion 🫆NEMA — technically insolvent; negative working capital of Ksh4.1 billion •KTB — negative working capital of Ksh14.1 million 🔴 Universities Bleeding 🫆Kenyatta University (Ksh11.4 billion losses), Egerton, JKUAT, Moi, UoN, Technical University of Kenya, Multimedia, Taita Taveta, Kabianga, Technical University of Mombasa 🫆Most parastatals survive only on government bailouts and creditor leniency 🫆Taxpayers risk being forced to rescue failing institutions amid an already struggling economy

Some things will take me forever to understand. Why does a 1 and a half hour flight from Nairobi to Dar Es Salaam cost Ksh. 40,000 to Ksh 50,000 yet a 24 hour flight from Nairobi to China is Ksh 75,000. What exactly is going on? Why does accomodation for one night at a four star hotel in Kenya cost Ksh 20,000 yet in China a four star hotel is Ksh 5,000 per night? Why do borrowers in Kenya pay an interest rate of 18% to 22% for loans yet in China the interest rate is 3%. How will a kenyan company that is borrowing to expand its manufacturing technology or equipment compete with a chinese company that is borrowing 1 billion dollars at 3%?

US has listed Kenya among key markets for fake goods, including medicines and electronics, according to a US trade report. They say weak enforcement is enabling the trade

Imagine sharing a border with a neighbor who deliberately plants his entire land with eucalyptus trees, aiming to make millions, while knowingly causing you serious financial losses.

@KelvinuhK @WMMartha Congratulations champion 👏

African Champion🤴 It's Gold For Kenya Today🥇

#AD Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi has built six new level four hospitals over the past three years and 26 level three hospitals, adding 1,600 beds countywide. Existing hospitals are now upgraded with modern X-ray, ultrasound, dialysis, and endoscopy machines which addresses the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) emphasis on Universal Health Coverage (UHC) @Wamatangi_

@Smith_Hempstone @citizentvkenya Services are better in Karuri & Tigoni hospitals. We are not complaining

@citizentvkenya Could you kindly show us the machinery & staff

World Bank told Nigeria to reopen fuel imports because Dangote’s fuel was 12% more expensive than imports. Dangote called it flawed. World Bank quietly deleted the whole report from their website. Meanwhile Europe is buying refined fuel from the same Dangote refinery because Middle East supply got disrupted. The same Europe that used to sell Nigeria its own crude back as petrol. You can’t make this up. An African refinery finally works at scale and the first recommendation is not invest more, not expand capacity. It’s bring back imports. When Africa consumes nobody says a word. When Africa refines and competes suddenly it’s a problem.

A politician hides their family in South Africa after plundering their country and then South Africans suddenly say they dont want foreigners there. Wena!

Guess who is opposing Dangote’s proposal to build a 1.2M barrels a day refinery in east Africa (Tanzania, Kenya and Congo) World Bank and IMF. : ))) Their argument? it would give monopoly to one company over energy. 1) All the while, French refineries are in almost every oil producing countries in Africa. 2) No African countries could get a loan to build a refinery larger than 400,000 barrels per day (one of the most profitable businesses ever). So the majority are small and struggle for profitability. 3) Nigeria oil had to be exported to Europe, refined and in many cases sold back to Nigeria and ECOWAS countries, under companies like shell and total. 4) it took until a billionaire financed the refinery in Nigeria himself to change part of that production and supply pipeline. And today, after the Hormuz blockade, EU countries are now buying oil from Dangote.

I've always told my PhD students that a PhD is a marathon and not a sprint. Now that Sabastian Sawe has run the London Marathon in under 2 hours, I'll need to think of something else to tell them.

@DaktariMachaa @moneyacademyKE The plantation owner is blind to the suffering of slaves.

@moneyacademyKE And the govt keeps on adding new taxes to these slaves

Over 50% of salaried workers in Kenya rely on advance loans to survive due to the rising cost of living, according to a new report. The report reveals Kenyans are increasingly depending on short-term credit to cover monthly expenses.

Governor anafanya impromptu visit hapa hosy alafu ananunulia patients ng'ombe wakule nyama lakini hawezi nunua lab reagents. Hivi tutawai fika Singapore?

Stubborn questions that Ruto's government will have to answer.

@Hrhmakanda @KenyanSays You cannot compare SHA "public health care system" and Twitter a "social media platform". Structure and applicability are totally different.

@KenyanSays Twitter was sold for $44B. Not the most intelligent take by Omtatah. He needs to expand his understanding.

" How can you purchase SHA system at 104 billion and then sell Kenya Pipeline with all its land and assets at ksh 106 billion?"- Sen. Okiya Omutatah raising serious questions right here!

Notch and his sons crossing the Mara River to reclaim their territory. After being driven out of the Marsh Pride, he raised his five sons alone something almost unheard of for a male lion. He was building his army.

Nurses hapo KNH are going through a lot of problems, no salaries. Alafu jamaa wao bado anatafuta machine ya kupika chapati. Patron wa public hospitals ni nani because we know the one wa private hospitals.

Medics are using normal saline to disinfect the skin before injection because surgical spirit is not available. Surgical spirit 500ML is 161 shillings. Politicians wako na pesa mingi hadi ya kununua bloggers hapa.
